Chapter 153: The Three of Us vs. the Extinction Dragon?
Jié Jié’s long-awaited attack hit its mark.
The horn strike from his dive crushed a large number of white thorns on the Extinction Dragon’s left wing, his fiery passion carrying terrifying momentum as he plowed her to the ground.
But this wasn’t due to severe damage; it was simply because of the sheer force of his impact that she fell.
Only the white thorns were destroyed, their shattering reducing most of his impact force.
The black skin scales on her wings were both hard and resilient, leaving only an inconspicuous scar from his unicorn horn.
The Extinction Dragon’s skeleton was even more solid, with her thick wing bones showing no signs of fracture after the collision. They merely deformed slightly upon impact before quickly rebounding.
What a resilient body!
Unlike most Ancient Dragons, the Extinction Dragon herself didn’t possess the power to manipulate natural ecosystems, lacked wondrous special abilities, and wasn’t as massive as the Old Mountain Dragon.
Her strength was similar to that of the Hōng Lóng among the Ancient Dragon species—she abandoned all “magic,” relying purely on brute force.
This purity prevented the Extinction Dragon from wielding the might of nature during her activities, but she was still classified as an Ancient Dragon due to the presence of Ancient Dragon blood in her veins, which shared characteristics with most other Ancient Dragons.
Secondly, her habit of using brute force also contributed to her classification—Extinction Dragons preyed on other Ancient Dragons.
Hunting, preying, or perhaps it could be called challenging calamities.
Using a sturdy body to withstand various harsh environments, employing immense strength to knock down the controllers of calamities.
If Ancient Dragons were likened to magicians who wield magic, then the Extinction Dragon would definitely be the one among them who impresses through physical prowess alone.
As for causing disasters through activity, by beating the controllers of calamities into submission, thereby forming calamities themselves, it’s akin to a physical magician using other magicians as staves!
Jié Jié flapped his wings, repeatedly trampling the Extinction Dragon until her pitch-black body revealed the red of flesh.
However, he couldn’t maintain continuous suppression against her. This pure physical magician was standing firm despite his trampling, swiping at him with a claw.
The thick arms were covered with wart-like black thorns and long white thorns, and unlike the small hands of most Ancient Dragons, the claws at the end were split into five sharp giant talons.
This certainly wasn’t some little hand slap.
The bigger the palm, the louder the slap, perfectly matching size with lethality. The Spiny Dragon, still unsteady from being trampled, was slapped off balance.
This stagger turned into a side jump, allowing Jie Jie to continue using his legs, ramming into the Extinction Dragon with a shoulder charge.
The two dragons’ wings collided and then parted without incident.
With a more robust skeleton, the Extinction Dragon’s wings often formed a circular arc around her, resembling a shield more suited to defending her body than aiding flight.
The round wings enveloped the Extinction Dragon’s sides, providing excellent resistance to pressure, revealing only the aggressive claws under normal circumstances.
This near-perfect defensive structure, combined with spikes that fall off during attacks, is why she earned the nickname “hedgehog.”
This hedgehog then demonstrated the superiority of her four-legged structure, rotating her body slightly with three legs while retaliating with a claw. Despite the lengthy description, her actions were incredibly swift, leaving four claw marks tearing across Jie Jie’s wing membrane.
Realizing her situation amidst the chaos, the Abyssal Wave Dragon watched the two strange creatures who wanted to eat her, pulling her body inward with her wings as she sprayed water streams, shrinking herself smaller and retreating.
Jié Jié, while taking hits, began wondering where his teammate Little Pony had gone, unable to see him anywhere. The arrival of Qí Lín merely added some lightning and thunder effects to the dark clouds surrounding the Abyssal Wave Dragon.
It seemed like that guy had only come to buff up the Abyssal Wave Dragon and then took a seat in the stands to watch the show.
He had foolishly thought this was a scenario where the Coral Land Plateau Ancient Dragon species united against external enemies, building a Coral Land Plateau Ancient Dragon community of shared destiny.
As for him, he was obviously the newcomer to the Coral Land Plateau.
At this moment, the dragons on the field seemed to form a picture: one playing flute after receiving buffs, another fleeing without any clothes like a greatsword user, the sole fighting Celestial Ruler, and a monster that looked like a tank with four people’s HP in a three-player co-op game.
Why does it feel so messed up even though everyone is acting like monsters?
Jié Jié had to endure the Abyssal Wave Dragon’s greatsword slash coming from behind, since her jet stream was also heading straight for him!
Expecting perfect cooperation from monsters is impossible; all the aforementioned descriptions are metaphors. He had been prepared to fight alone from the start.
There won’t be any post-battle distribution phase; there will only be the crude winner-takes-all!
The point-and-click formula effective against most monsters was somewhat powerless against the Extinction Dragon.
Thus, Jie Jie unleashed a fire explosion before jumping back to create distance, then transformed into a Slaying Dragon spin step, slashing with his blade right where the fire exploded.
The Celestial Ruler switched weapons mid-battle!
He drew out his katana!
A katana with great sword damage! A great sword with katana offensive moves!
Wake up, that’s not the Celestial Ruler, that’s Old Jin.
The sharp sword tail sliced open the tough black skin scales, but in the next second, the cracked black scales closed again under the pressure of the muscles.
No problem, this was just the first vertical slash entering the battle; his blade hadn’t turned red yet!
He swung the retracted sword tail into his mouth, spewing hot currents to heat it up before smoothly swinging it left and right for a cross combo slash—
After sheathing the sword, he performed a small technique, and the air blades seemed to be rising!
Despite the interference from the Abyssal Wave Dragon, every slash landed without pause.
Under the state of a scorching blade, the sword tail undoubtedly possessed greater destructiveness, preventing the Extinction Dragon’s skin from healing as quickly as before.
Before his katana spirit could burn further, the continuous water stream from the Abyssal Wave Dragon drenched his sword tail.
Something went out in the wet impact—
Jié Jié glared angrily at the Abyssal Wave Dragon.
Of course, mother dragons only slow down his draw speed, preventing him from breaking through other mother dragons’ defenses!
As soon as he expressed his anger with his gaze, the Extinction Dragon swiped at him with a double-pawed strike, forcing him to retreat temporarily.
After his continuous attacks ended, the Abyssal Wave Dragon, who had been continuously spraying water and looked refreshingly inviting, caught the Extinction Dragon’s attention.
Her excellent quadrupedal structure propelled her forward and backward in a slide step over the flooded terrain, charging towards the Abyssal Wave Dragon.
“Ah ah ah!”
Amidst the Abyssal Wave Dragon’s childish roar, the lightning and thunder in the sky along with the falling drizzle wrapped around her small hands as they swung, heavily slapping down onto the Extinction Dragon covered in water anomalies.
The trailing Jie Jie looked at the surging lightning in the dark clouds. The big lightning attribute attack blown by Qilin—he probably wouldn’t get to partake.
Is it worth it to transform just for this acquired lightning attribute?
