Chapter 506 "Witch's Fishnet Stockings" The True Trump Card of the 12-Headed Dragon King
"roar--"
The Hundred-Bones Dragon King unconsciously opened its jaw and roared from its throat.
Not a roar!
The roar was not loud, and could not even drown out the screams and sharp hissing of the many demi-human race heads on its body.
The sound was like something seeping from an empty shell, a struggle as if drowning, or a distorted tone from a broken gear in a music box stuck in the sound-producing part.
"What kind of monster is this?!"
Jue Shi Jue Ming's face turned even paler.
Its enormous size, its ugly and bizarre appearance, and the negative effects of the continuous mental shocks it brings.
It made Zetsu Shitsu Mei feel like vomiting.
Fortunately, the [Curse Knight] class has complete resistance to curses.
otherwise.
With the "cursed spiritual energy" emanating from the Hundred Bones Dragon King, the negative and abnormal states it causes will only become more severe!
Jue Si Jue Ming turned her head to look at the figure blocking her way, and was stunned for a moment. She realized that Tang Zheng was not affected at all.
No wonder she has black hair!
This man is truly indescribably mysterious and powerful.
"call……"
Tang Zheng let out a long breath and spoke solemnly to the men behind him:
"I will create the time for you to use your innate abilities!"
In his current state, Zesshi Zesshi is no longer capable of fighting normally.
not to mention!
Even if Tang Zheng goes all out, it will be extremely troublesome to defeat the Hundred Bones Dragon King in front of him. He will probably need to use up one or two of his trump cards.
The Hundred-Bone Dragon King before me!
The people of the Floating City called it a "failure," not because the True Dragon King was weak, but because it was completely uncontrollable and would attack everyone indiscriminately.
That's right.
In the Floating City, there isn't just one "True Dragon King".
"Despite revealing a great deal of information, their displayed strength is only around level 80,"
Tang Zheng frowned, thinking to himself, "That guardian, Leoric Zhen, hasn't shown up yet. He's really being cautious."
This is different from the situation we encountered before.
The Hundred-Bone Dragon King is not someone you can defeat by trickery. The "Death Bell," originally a weapon of certain death, is the key to the next step of the plan.
Now we can only use it ahead of schedule!
"……learn."
A flicker of sadness crossed Zetsumei's eyes. Ultimately, she was too weak. She pushed off the ground and retreated, glaring fiercely at the massive figure before her.
"The goal of all life is death!"
Buzz~
Golden ripples emerged behind the absolute death and death, and a floating, circular golden clock materialized behind it.
"What!"
"Butler" Imralis jumped up in shock, opened his mouth, and let out a trembling sound.
A striking gold clock!
Through the magical screen, a power that can only be manifested behind the female intruder appears, a power that can only be revealed by special skills or moves.
"Impossible... a mere human..."
"Even with the bloodline of a god-king, it's impossible to wield power that only an undead god like the 'Dark God' could possess?!"
A feeling of disbelief welled up inside me.
"Butler" Imralis knew what kind of power it was, and it was precisely because he knew that he could not understand it.
I was terrified!
Thanks to the Guardian's caution, otherwise...
A chill ran down Imralis's spine as he thought of the "butler".
etc!
Thinking of the "powered armor" that had just disappeared.
"Butler" Imralis's eyes widened, and his face showed a mixture of shock and anger. He finally guessed the purpose of these intruders.
"Everything!"
"They're all after the 'powered armor' once used by the supreme god-kings; we can't let them leave!!"
Imralis, the "butler," quickly relayed the information.
It's not just about retrieving the "Power Armor"; the key is that the "Power Armor" possesses area-of-effect instant-death magical power.
Once it falls into the hands of this woman in the magical screen, it will pose a huge threat!
…………
Whoosh!
""die""
Zesshi Zesshi raised the cross-shaped scythe in his hand, aimed it at the Hundred Bones Dragon King, and activated the magic hidden within the magical artifact.
when!
The golden clock behind me ticked, and its hands began to move.
11 seconds.
Boom—
The powerful shadow of the Hundred-Bones Dragon King loomed over, its agonizing and shrill screams growing even more piercing, and the stench wafting towards them becoming even stronger.
Tang Zheng possesses complete mental patience.
The eardrums were still tingling from the piercing sound, just like the sound of someone scratching a blackboard with their fingernails when I was in school.
"Monster Summoning: Cerberus!"
Tang Zheng began chanting, summoning a monster that could act as a meat shield.
"Roar! Roar! Roar!"
A blue magic circle appeared beneath their feet, and Cerberus emerged with a ferocious expression, roaring as it charged forward.
The Cerberus, originally the size of a small house, appeared as tiny as a cute pet in front of the even larger Hundred Bones Dragon King.
However!
Just as Cerberus charged in, about a hundred meters in front of the Hundred-Headed Dragon King, the fierce gazes on its three heads simultaneously turned dull, and it stood frozen in place.
10 seconds.
A rotten, pus-filled gray dragon claw emerged and, as easily as swatting an ant, pinned Cerberus to the ground.
Accompanied by the sound of flesh being squeezed!
The three-headed hellhound instantly dissipated as magical energy.
Tang Zheng's eyelids twitched.
So strong!
This was a level 70 tank monster, and it was instantly killed. Even though Gros Horned had already provided the information, he was still shocked.
The Hundred-Bones Dragon King.
He was one of the true dragon kings killed by the Eight Desire Kings 500 years ago. He also had a certain bad reputation among the dragon race and was known as the "wicked" true dragon king.
He is said to have the nickname "collector of racial heroes"!
It enjoys searching for powerful races on the continent and then destroying them with unparalleled strength, if any of those races possess a powerful individual that it finds appealing.
They would then collect the heads of the strongest members of that demi-human race, embed them in their bodies, and flaunt them as medals.
The real reason.
The Hundred-Shoulder Dragon King can gain a boost in power through these heads.
9 seconds.
Bang!
The Hundred-Bone Dragon King raised his other arm and slapped it towards Tang Zheng.
Even though there were still hundreds of meters between them, the gray dragon's arm twisted and grew like an octopus's tentacles the moment it struck down.
It transformed into a giant gray whip, lashing out through the air with incredibly fast afterimages!
"Time stop!"
Tang Zheng quickly began chanting a magic spell.
The gray whip shadow's speed remained unchanged, completely unaffected by time magic.
"Does Mingming still possess time resistance in this state?"
Tang Zheng's expression changed slightly: "Magic without chanting resistance breakthrough - Gravity reversal."
Whoosh!
The massive gray whip shadow was not completely affected, but it tilted as it fell, striking a spot more than ten meters away.
Boom!
A tremendous roar came from the ground, and the shockwave made Tang Zheng's golden magic robe flutter loudly.
7 seconds.
The dragon's arm rose again, returning to its original shape.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
The Hundred-Bone Dragon King had also rushed over, its two dragon claws slashing through the air, enveloping Tang Zheng, and pressing down heavily.
"Magic Without Chanting - Warm Up!"
Tang Zheng raised his finger and pointed it forward.
A dazzling, scorching light erupted from the fingertips, and the terrifyingly high temperature instantly raised the temperature within the area to 6000 degrees Celsius.
The extreme high temperature in this area then caused a huge change in the surrounding air pressure, creating a violent shockwave from the explosion.
Thud—Thud!
The Hundred-Bone Dragon King's waving claws collided with the exploding shockwave, creating a piercing heatwave and a hiss that momentarily drowned out the screams of the thousands of demi-human heads on its body.
"roar--"
The Hundred-Bones Dragon King's massive body was pushed back by the shockwave, almost knocking him to the ground.
The rotting pustules were evaporated by the heat wave, and large areas of the demi-human head on his body ignited under the high temperature, burning and turning into ashes.
After a brief retreat!
Braving the intense heat, the Hundred-Bones Dragon King charged forward once more.
"Heat it up!"
The intense light burst forth once more.
The Hundred-Bones Dragon King was also repelled once again by the heatwave shockwave.
5 seconds.
The blinding light dissipated!
The Hundred-Bones Dragon King swayed as he got up. His chest, which had been burned by the high temperature, was visibly recovering its charred skin.
Even the burned-out demi-human heads reappeared, their expressions eternally pained and twisted in agony as they screamed.
If you observe carefully!
It can be observed that the skin of the Hundred-Skeleton Dragon becomes rougher and harder in the areas where it is injured.
"The Hundred-Bone Dragon King can acquire various resistances by using the heads of different races, and even enhance the corresponding resistances to different attacks by using different attacks."
This intelligence came to Tang Zheng's mind.
In his lifetime, the Hundred-Bone Dragon King was an extremely formidable true dragon king.
The opponent is not a powerful type among the true dragon kings, but possesses various resistances to physical attacks, magic, and negative status effects, in addition to the natural resistance of the dragon race.
Once an attacker adapts to a single type of attack, it becomes very difficult to inflict effective damage.
but!
These are not things that Tang Zhengzhen really cares about.
"I had some doubts at first, but it turns out it really didn't work."
"How exactly did the Eight Desire Kings manage to do that?"
Tang Zheng's face showed incomprehension and astonishment as he thought of the light created by the magical explosion just now.
They secretly used the power of the world-class item [Two Realms Mandala] in an attempt to forcibly capture the Hundred Bones Dragon King.
The experiment failed!
The information provided by Gros Horned Wrath mentioned that the True Dragon King, who was under the control of the [Floating City], still possessed the resistance of "World Guardian".
Tang Zheng remained skeptical.
Because the Hundred-Bone Dragon King before them had no trace of life, meaning it was the corpse of a true dragon king.
so.
Aside from its basic breath attack, physical attacks, and resistances, the Hundred-Bone Dragon King is unable to unleash the power of "Primordial Magic."
"No matter how special it is, a corpse is a corpse."
"strangeness……"
Tang Zheng found the current state of the Hundred Bones Dragon King somewhat incomprehensible: "This true dragon king's corpse, apart from the dense curse energy, actually has not a trace of negative energy."
3 seconds.
Bang!
With a powerful push from its massive rear end, the Hundred-Bones Dragon King charged forward like a small mountain.
"Magic Resistance Breakthrough - Heating!"
The intense heat of the explosion reappeared, creating a comprehensive heat wave shockwave centered on Tang Zheng.
rear.
"Cough...cough..." Jue Shi Jue Ming was once again thrown back a distance by this heat wave, retreating in a disheveled state.
A scorching heatwave.
The respiratory tract and mouth of the patient were extremely dry, and there was even a noticeable stinging sensation.
"Tenth-tier magical power, every time I see it, I feel an incredible sense of awe."
Zetsuki tightly closed his mouth to prevent the heatwave from scorching his mouth and throat. He raised his hand to shield his face, squinting through his fingers as he looked at Tang Zheng, who was also enveloped in crimson light.
"How much of your strength did you use in the last battle?"
"The difference in strength shouldn't be that obvious!"
"I'm afraid they're hiding their power right now. What a despicable fellow, hiding even when facing a force like the [Floating City]."
Even in the face of certain death, Tang Zheng still harbors the thought of holding back his trump cards, no matter the circumstances.
Thump—thump—
The Hundred-Bones Dragon King roared and took two steps back. Its massive, mountain-like body made contact with the ground, causing an earthquake-like tremor.
The increasingly shallow burn marks on the opponent's body indicate that the fire damage caused by "Heating" is gradually decreasing.
but.
Tang Zheng's eyes were calm. He didn't care about the reduction in damage. He only needed to repel his opponent and wait for the "Death Bell" to finish.
"Heating"
boom!
The Hundred-Bones Dragon King continued to be repelled.
"Indeed, they are not immortal."
"After all, even with resistance, the damage caused by fire magic won't be reduced this much."
Tang Zheng had a vague feeling.
Although the Hundred-Bones Dragon King lacks the aura of a living being, it is not a true corpse. If one had to describe it, it would be more like a "vegetative state" person who has lost self-awareness.
1 second.
With a "click".
The hands of the golden clock behind Zesshi Zesshi had completed a full rotation.
The Hundred-Bones Dragon King's writhing body instantly stiffened, and then, like a burst bubble, it collapsed and dissipated at a visible speed.
A true dragon king was destroyed just like that!
Tang Zheng felt a pang of heartache at this level of loss.
However!
The Floating City can withstand this kind of loss; this doesn't mean the opponent possesses a large number of Hundred-Bone Dragon Kings—a "failure."
Actually!
Indeed, there was more than one true dragon king.
In the core area of the Floating City, besides the "failed creation" Hundred-Bones Dragon King, there are eleven true dragon kings that can be truly controlled.
But if that's all there is to it...
The loss of a true dragon king is still very serious, but according to Gros Horned Fury, the [Floating City] can revive the modified true dragon kings!
To be precise!
It's not "resurrection," it's "healing."
Gros Horned was unaware of the specifics of how it was carried out; the entire process was overseen by Safis Sothos, one of the three level 100 guardians.
All Gros Horned knew was that it was accomplished through a technique called "Witch's Fishnet Stockings," constructed using the world-class artifact, the Nameless Spellbook.
This is also the true trump card that the "Eight Desire Kings" left for the [Floating City]!
