Chapter 250 Successful Defeat of Zagnat
"You won't die, will you?"
These words reveal Ryu's deepest vulnerability and fear. At this moment, her only remaining familia companion, Roy, is the string in her heart that has been stretched to its limit.
Once Roy is also killed by Zagnat, experiencing two total annihilations, her mental state will completely collapse.
Roy was more reliable than she had imagined.
Burn the heavens!
Roy picked up the elven holy sword and walked towards the monsters that Zagnath had thrown in. He pointed the blade forward, activated a special effect, and drew magic energy from the surrounding area.
Strands of magical energy, almost materializing, surged wildly into the slender sword, erupting in crimson flames that illuminated the entire dark rift.
The warmth surrounding the crimson flames dispelled the darkness and chill of the air, making one feel cozy and comfortable.
The Blazing Flames cannot be used against Zagnat. Any ranged magic formed from magic essence can be reflected back by him, including the Demon Sword.
But it's a powerful tool for dealing with other monsters!
boom!
The crimson flames seemed to transform into a giant dragon, roaring and devouring countless monsters. The shadows deep within the flames wailed in agony, turning to ashes along with the magic stones.
Ryu stared blankly at the scene, and even the magical flames of Alisha felt so warm.
Roy walked out of the crack.
With a severely injured Ryu, it would be impossible for them to enter the thirty-eighth floor, as the monsters in the "Throne Hall" would catch up with them instantly.
Approaching LV.7 speed is the opponent's specialty.
He was going to slay that calamity beast, Zagnat! Not only to survive, but also for the elf behind him. Roy glanced back.
"Will someone be able to save me someday?"
"That day won't be too far off!"
That was a conversation that took place after their first expedition ended, with Roy wanting to keep his promise.
The effects of the panacea gradually became apparent on his body, with bursts of colorful light emanating from his skin, and his wounds, spirit, and physical strength were fully restored.
Now that Ryu has awakened, Roy releases the Synchronization Contract, regains his full strength, and a powerful surge of energy rises up.
adventure!
It's not a simulation, but a real activation, granting him the power to break through limits and challenge powerful enemies in desperate situations, greatly enhancing his abilities.
If Roy had time to check the panel, he would be surprised to find that the word "LV.4" in the level had become distorted and was faintly changing into LV.5, about to be replaced.
With her LV.4 limit-breaking ability value, combined with the fully activated "Adventure", the effect is close to the fox girl's magic level sublimation!
Force him to advance one level!
Roy burst out of the rift and faced Zagnat head-on. In front of the Throne Hall, they clashed in close combat, each chipping away at the other's life force in a desperate fight to the death.
The intense clashes firmly captured the audience's attention.
Watching Roy and Zagnat fight to the death, in Ryu's eyes, that figure gradually overlapped with Alexie's. No! It was the hero Alexie had once described, challenging the impossible.
"I see-!"
Crystal-clear tears streamed from Ryu's eyes, falling down her smooth, beautiful cheeks. How many times had she seen this before? But she always subconsciously chose to avoid it, unwilling to look directly at it.
Roy dislikes fussy, sentimental talk and doesn't offer comforting words.
Roy will prove with his actions that nothing in the world can stop him, not even calamity!
Zagnat's attacks became increasingly fierce. Roy relied on his "Intuition" skill and used all his strength to barely resist his opponent, but his wounds continued to increase.
From the floor master Udeus, to the LV.6 Phryne, and now the calamity "Zagnat," Roy has been fighting continuously and his condition is not good.
That body was already nearing its limit.
Without the ability to "adventure" and develop, this fierce battle would end in the blink of an eye.
"No matter what you think, I will continue to fight!" Ryu finally understood this sentence. She fought fiercely with Zagnat, her resolute face focused, sweat mixed with blood splattering, as if telling her, stand up and fight!
His actions are the best encouragement.
"So cunning, always using this method!" Liu's tears fell like pearls, forcing her into a corner and leaving her no choice.
At this moment, the elven girl seemed to possess the eyes of a god who could see into souls. Peeling away layers of clothing, she could see that beneath Roy's turbid and dark soul, emanated the purest light in the world.
"A heart set on adventure—"
Liu murmured, activating the Synchronization Contract. She could also use this development ability to empathize with the other party and perceive their true thoughts.
In a sense, they are the people who understand each other best in the world, without exception.
Free yourself from the constraints of the body, and make contact with your soul.
She didn't want to see Roy die! Liu took a rubber band from her pocket and tied her long golden hair into a single ponytail, making her look clean and refreshing. Her bright eyes were as dazzling as sky-blue gemstones.
After drinking the potion Roy gave her, Ryu drew her Elf Flowing Light Dragon Staff and rushed out.
After slaying numerous monsters from the 37th floor, Ryu arrived at Roy's side. The two stood back to back, facing Zagnat and the nearby deep-level monsters.
In the midst of fierce fighting, they exchanged a single sentence with each other.
"I will fight too!"
Ryu firmly declared that she would no longer run away. She would overcome the obstacles in her heart, slay the ferocious beast known as the calamity before her, and avenge Alyssa and the others.
Roy really wanted Ryu to join the fight, but he still pretended to be concerned and said, "Don't force yourself. That's not a monster you can handle."
Ryu's reaction was unexpected.
"Don't try that provocative tactic. I'm perfectly calm right now!" Liu said irritably, tears streaming down her beautiful face, but her sky-blue eyes were incredibly firm, showing no sign of hesitation.
Her face remained calm, and she transformed back into the seemingly cold but warm-hearted elven girl she once was.
Roy's face froze for a moment, then a slight smile appeared on his lips. "Can you keep up? Otherwise, I won't let you have Zagnat's head!"
"Who do you think you're talking to? I'm LV.5!" Ryu displayed skills no less than Roy's, both taught by the same master (Asteria).
The Elf Flowing Light Dragon Staff unleashed countless afterimages, slaying monsters; more than a dozen LV.4 monsters were pulverized.
Surrounded by Zagnat and hundreds of monsters from the Thirty-Seventh Floor, the two fought with increasing ferocity and boundless pride, as if they had found some kind of resonance.
Ryu felt her back growing increasingly hot.
A bright, dazzling golden light shone on her snow-white back, and a new string of text appeared in the skills section of the ability panel.
Inheritance of Justice: Resonance of Power. Within a certain range of the initiator, allied companions with the same divine blood will have their skill effects amplified, their magic power (spiritual power) increased, and will be granted resistance to mental corruption.
When Liu awakened her new skill, Inheritance of Justice, Roy immediately felt that his condition had improved significantly, and his mind was clear.
The succession of justice has three effects.
Skill effects are amplified!
Magic power (mental power) increased!
It provides resistance to mental pollution!
The most important effect for Roy is naturally the first one: the enhancement of his skills, which takes his "adventure" development ability to the next level, making the improvement even more exaggerated.
Secondly, it's about enhancing mental strength.
Summoning Zagnat with the Earth Demon Sword consumed a lot of his mental energy. He felt a tearing pain in his head, dizziness, and his mental energy was forcibly restored.
Resisting mental pollution is also a good option; the roars of deep-level monsters are very intimidating.
The sudden increase in power caused a flicker of surprise in Roy's eyes. He glanced at Liu without leaving a trace. He hadn't done anything; it could only be the other party.
Faced with the crisis, Roy didn't investigate further.
Burn the heavens!
With ample mental support, Roy no longer hesitated. He connected his mind to the Holy Sword of the Spirits, and the crimson flames erupted once more, sweeping away the surrounding monsters.
The intense heat and flames reduced the monsters to ashes, leaving behind a scorched, reddish-brown landscape.
The monsters on the 37th floor are not allied with Zagnat; they will attack each other.
The monsters in the deeper layers are significantly more ferocious than those in the middle and lower layers. Even if they are not born in the arena, they will attack each other. For example, with a single volley of fine needles, Peruda can wipe out a large number of monsters. Among the monsters, he is definitely a traitor and a war criminal.
The number of monsters around them decreased sharply, but Roy and Ryu's sense of urgency remained undiminished. As long as Zagnat was not dealt with, the crisis could not be considered over.
Before disappearing, the puppet Ota, with its relentless and desperate efforts, inflicted considerable damage on Zagnat, demonstrating its undeniable LV.7 combat strength.
Zagnat opened his gaping maw and swallowed the skeleton sheep, lizardman elites, cunning wolves, Peruda and other monsters into his belly to enhance his power.
This is one of the characteristics of Zagnat.
If a limb is damaged, it can replenish its strength by chewing on other monsters' bodies, making a crisp "crunching" sound.
However, the magic stone mixed with other monsters has significantly reduced its stats, which is one of the reasons why Roy has been able to hold out against this monster until now.
call out!
Having absorbed the magic stone from Peruda, Zagnat's body was covered in identical poisonous needles, which he instantly launched out like a torrential downpour.
"—Dance, spirits of the air, masters of light. I have made a pact with the guardian of the forest, and I pray that the song of the earth will envelop us!"
Protect us—I beg you to transform into a mighty forest wall to shield us—my name is Alf!
Dimension·Interruption!
Roy said in a deep voice, and as the chanting ended, a semi-circular light shield appeared before their eyes, enveloping him and Liu. The thin light shield was extremely hard.
All the falling poison needles were deflected.
"Regarding Zagnat, do you remember the information I told you before?" Roy asked.
A glint of light flashed in Liu's eyes, and she nodded slightly. How could she forget? The deep-seated hatred and fear filled every corner of her heart, and she wished she could remember everything about this monster.
"Now! This is the chance to test that tactic. I'll cooperate with you!" Roy tried his best to keep his voice calm and steady. If they failed, they would most likely not have a second chance.
The only outcome is death!
Bang!
Zagnat's figure rushed in swiftly, arriving in an instant like a whirlwind, a huge shadow looming over Roy and Ryu, as if darkness were about to devour them.
The claw gleamed with a cold, bluish-purple light, and fueled by its super-speed kinetic energy, it was unstoppable, piercing through Roy's magical shield.
The claws were less than ten centimeters from Roy's eyes.
After Roy learned this magic from Riveria, he became the first monster in Zagnat to break the "Dimensional Barrier" barrier.
Those cold, scarlet eyes silently watched Roy and Liu, their brutality and ruthlessness sending shivers down one's spine and making one feel deeply suffocated.
Roy stared coldly at the monster.
"call!"
Ryu took a deep breath, raised the Elven Radiant Dragon Staff high, pointed it at Zagnat above, and said in a deep voice, "Monster, today is your end!"
"Do it!" Roy shouted, dispelling the spell.
The moment the light shield dissipated, Roy and Ryu rushed towards Zagnat from the left and right respectively. Upon closer inspection, Ryu, who was of a higher level, was actually a step behind.
Roar!
Zagnat was the first to confront Roy, unleashing a deafening roar, but thanks to the mental pollution resistance granted by the inheritance of justice and adventure, the roar had little effect on Roy.
Seeing that his roar was ineffective, Zagnat opened his massive jaws, filled with sharp teeth, once again and lunged at Roy!
Synchronization Contract!
Ryu's stats, development potential, and skills, when combined with Roy's, reach level 5, with all stats around B.
Level 1, it's a pity that Liu was injured, otherwise this improvement would have been even higher.
Roy activated his Intuition skill, entering "Precognition," and predicted Zagnat's attack trajectory.
In that instant, Roy moved with incredible speed, catching Zagnat off guard. With a sliding tackle, Roy slid past Zagnat's chin, and the elven holy sword slashed across the corner of his mouth, the wound extending to his lower abdomen.
"roar!"
Zagnat never expected that this "ant" that it had suppressed from beginning to end would suddenly increase in strength and injure it, which undoubtedly made it very angry.
Just as it was about to chase Roy.
Ryu arrived late and had already rushed up, forcing Zagnat to turn back.
This time, the Synchronization Contract is superimposed on Ryu.
"The forest and sky have now vanished. The endless night sky is studded with countless stars!"
Liu simultaneously handled attack, movement, and chanting—the elven radiance dragon staff in her hand was drawn, its blade drawing an extremely thin, extremely bright, and seemingly timeless cold line in the dim light, stabbing with perfect precision towards the gap in the armor on Zagnat's neck!
"Ding!"
A sharp sound, like an awl piercing stubborn iron! The sharp edge left only a white mark on the Zagnat armor, with a few sparks flying!
The Elf Streamer also has the effect of a staff, but its physical damage is relatively less than other weapons of the same level.
But that was enough to enrage Zagnat.
Seeing that Zagnat was about to attack, Roy took the opportunity to strike him from behind again.
Roy and Ryu have taken the Synchro Contract to its extreme; no matter who fights Zagnat, the contract will appear on that person.
Always ensure that the person with the higher ability value confronts Zagnat head-on, while the other person can step back to catch their breath and observe the situation.
A perfect team effort.
This is the ultimate tactic that the two of them developed.
They can even confront someone who is a whole level stronger than them head-on.
Normally, it would take at least twenty adventurers of the same level to join forces to have a chance against a higher-level being, but Roy and Ryu only need two people!
If an adventurer were to witness this scene, they would be astonished and speechless. Only those who are of one mind and completely trust each other can achieve such cooperation.
"Respond to the voice of my ignorance, grant me the protection of starlight once more." As the tide turned, a confident look appeared on Ryu's small face. Her figure was as light as a cloud, spinning rapidly. This time, she changed her target, avoiding the hard armor, and severed Zagnat's arm.
"Hiss—!"
Zagnat, in pain, let out a furious roar, its ferocity fully unleashed. Its massive body twisted violently like mud and rocks, crashing through several thick stone pillars with overwhelming force, its thick tail sweeping down with the force of a landslide!
"I forsake you, yet you possess a thousand rays of light and mercy—come, wandering wind, lost traveler."
Like willow catkins, the lilacs swayed in the raging storm. Their figures darted and weaved through the complex terrain, narrowly avoiding attacks that could shatter stone tablets and sweep away human bodies in half.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Roy seized the opportunity to attack relentlessly, countless sword shadows flashing, leaving Zagnat with hideous wounds.
Unlike ordinary eccentrics, Zagnat's body is like a giant magic stone, from which his extraordinary strength and agility come.
Therefore, it will not bleed.
The wounds inflicted by Roy and Ryu's attacks resulted in a large number of magic stone fragments falling down.
However, as everyone knows, the magic stone is the eccentric's fatal weakness, and the magic stone is extremely fragile.
Therefore, Zagnat's durability is significantly low, making it a strange creature with high attack and low defense!
A full-force attack from a level 4 adventurer can break through its defenses, but thanks to its extremely high agility, it can dodge most attacks, even those from level 6.
Roy must shatter the enemy's last line of defense for Ryu—the head armor that can counter magic.
Because his entire body is made of magic stone, Zagnat has no specific fatal parts. Even if his head or chest is pierced, he can continue to throb. To kill his opponent, you must completely shatter his entire body!
Only magic can achieve this!
Opportunity strikes in the blink of an eye!
Zagnat's tail swept across, carrying a terrifying power capable of shattering everything. Roy did not retreat but advanced, and was struck in the chest by the tail. Even with the protection of the epic-level Serpent Armor, Roy's internal organs still trembled, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.
Roy clung tightly to his tail and wasn't flung away.
Blood for blood, tenfold retribution!
Intentionally taking the hit from Zagnat to accumulate damage, Roy's lips curled into a mad smile, and his eyes burned with the flames of revenge.
From his wound, countless bright red blood seemed to gush out, rushing wildly into the elven holy sword.
The sword music burst forth with a powerful and sharp light.
Boom!
Roy's strength suddenly increased, and with a powerful thrust of his legs, a dull thud resounded. Centered on him, the ground within a radius of several hundred meters suddenly sank, and cracks appeared in the ground like a spider web.
The sword light rose again! This time, there was no piercing whistle, only an intensely concentrated killing intent! The longsword transformed into a pure...
A rainbow light that pierces through life and death!
Roy thrust his sword out fiercely.
The cold, blood-red sword light was unstoppable, instantly piercing through Zagnat's tail, sending countless fragments of magic stone flying, heading straight for the armor on Zagnat's head.
Zagnat was dumbfounded. It had tried to sweep Roy away, but Roy took the hit head-on, amplifying the damage tenfold and returning it to Zagnat!
Roy's madness instinctively terrified the eccentric musician, who was known as a calamity.
"Heh!" Roy sneered, as if to say, "Watch closely, this is the real counterattack!"
Bang!
A dull yet crisp collision sound rang out.
The razor-sharp tip of the elven holy sword, carrying decisive penetrating power and tenfold increased damage, shattered Zagnat's tail.
The chest, until it precisely penetrated the hard scales on the head.
The terrifying power shattered the chip instantly!
Roy twisted and turned his wrist sharply!
"Awooo—!!!"
Zagnat's head exploded with a deafening scream that echoed throughout the entire Blue Immortal Realm! The sound was like a torn soul, filled with unimaginable pain and violent despair.
"Miss Ryu, catch!"
Having done all this, Roy's mission was complete. He stepped back, dropping the elven holy sword.
Ryu caught the elven holy sword, and the Synchro Contract granted Sachi the skill "Elven Serpent Power," which also amplified the holy sword. Mysterious runes appeared on the slender blade, and its sharp edge far surpassed Sachi's weapon.
A hint of surprise flashed in Liu's eyes.
Simply holding this elven holy sword seemed to transform her into an invincible blade, with nothing in the world able to hinder her sharpness.
It can easily break through Zagnat's defenses!
"Soaring through the skies, galloping across the wilderness, moving with the speed of ten thousand men. Conquering enemies with the brilliance of the stars."
Jin Shuai moved swiftly, attacking the heavily wounded Zagnat while chanting the final part of a magic incantation, her twin swords creating countless afterimages.
Zagnat, severely injured by Roy, was almost unable to resist. He screamed as his arms, legs, and torso were all severed by Ryu's precise slashes.
In just one minute, the massive Zagnath, as large as a small mountain, was completely dismembered by Ryu.
To tear him to pieces, to vent my anger!
Even after being hacked to pieces, Zagnat was not dead. His remains were not covered in blood, but instead consisted of pieces of Purple Roar Magic Stone, which kept writhing and trying to reassemble, devour other monsters, and be reborn.
Upon seeing this, Ryu's small face revealed intense disgust and hatred. Although they weren't the same creature, they were of the same kind. It was this strange creature that had killed Alicia, Kaguya, Laila, Niz, Noin, Aste, Leana, Selty, Iska, and Maru—
"The Wind of Light—!"
As the chanting ended, the elven girl's clear and melodious voice rang out, carrying an air of sorrow, determination, and resolve, as if she were saying goodbye to her past self.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
Hundreds of emerald green orbs of light appeared around Xing, like countless dazzling stars surrounding her, making her appear as holy as a goddess.
The light shone brightly, illuminating the dim celestial realm.
Emerald green orbs of light rained down.
The area was engulfed in flames, and Zagnat's remains were reduced to ashes in the violent explosion. The earth-shattering roar echoed within the blue and white palace, becoming the final swan song of this battle!
The calamity beast Zagnat has been successfully defeated!
