"One more sword."
With a sweeping sword strike, the scorching blade sliced across the giant serpent's neck. The mental armor was an extension of Evan's will, allowing him to sense the flesh and blood of his enemy.
He was somewhat slow and somewhat rotten, but possessed a special kind of tenacity that caused him to encounter resistance when he swung his sword.
There was little resistance; even the strongest bones would only be sliced open and roasted by Evan's sword.
"Whoosh..."
The blade entered Evan's neck from one side and left from the other, the momentum carrying him away from the area.
The venom along the way was burned away by the flames on the greatsword and did not harm Evan's body.
"bump……"
Evan's foot landed on a pillar not far away, and just then, the giant snake's right head was severed from its body forever.
"hiss……"
This time the pain was even more intense, making the giant snake realize that it had lost another head.
We can't beat them.
Even a beast's mind could understand the current situation: they couldn't win; this was an enemy they were completely unable to fight.
He lost both heads without being injured or even making contact with the mysterious enemy.
Moreover, the wound was invaded by some kind of power that the giant serpent could not understand, which suppressed the regenerative power of the flesh in that area, making it impossible to regenerate a new head at present.
You'll die. If you keep fighting, you'll definitely die.
Judging from the current situation, the giant snake probably thinks that if it doesn't retreat soon, it will turn into a headless senior student, with nothing above its neck.
And so, the three-headed serpent, one of the overlords of this abandoned settlement, and the ruler of a Dark Eclipse beast race, lowered its body and accelerated its crawl.
That was its choice; the giant snake turned tail and ran (with a double meaning).
However, perhaps due to the many bad things it has done, its luck is clearly not very good today.
Unable to see the enemy's exact location and with its senses disrupted, the three-headed serpent retreated in any random direction.
This direction isn't too far from where Evan just landed.
"Hmph, trying to escape?"
This time, Evan didn't use the greatsword, but instead picked up the spear that had been hanging on his back.
"The power of light dispels the darkness for us and illuminates our path forward..."
The weapon in his hand emitted a dazzling light, even more radiant than the runic equipment at the cave entrance, dispelling the darkness within the cave and making it difficult for people to open their eyes.
"hiss……"
Because of its dark nature, the giant serpent realized that a certain force that was restraining it was growing stronger.
It wanted to speed up its retreat.
It's too late.
"Light..."
Behind the giant serpent, Evan, who had just brushed past it, leaped high into the air, raised his spear, and hurled it at the beast.
The target of the attack was the giant snake's heart.
"call out……"
Without any resistance, the beam of light pierced through the giant serpent's body, pinning the retreating beast firmly to the ground. The power of the light surged into its body, erasing the serpent's power—the darkness that sustained its life.
With a convulsion, the giant snake's head in the middle rose, then fell limply to the ground.
"bump……"
No longer moving, its self-healing ability stopped working, the monster that had been rampaging through the ruins was now just a corpse.
"roar……"
Around the same time, Evan heard a commotion not far away. Blue arcs of electricity crackled, accompanied by a flash of lightning, as the dragon beast, which had been circling in mid-air, plummeted.
Vilia also completed his mission; the dragon's head was pierced by lightning, and the behemoth crashed.
In just a few minutes, the Dark Erosion Beast in the abandoned settlement was completely suppressed, having slain the snake and slain the dragon.
