Absolute Death Game-Chapter 515 - 13: Humanoid Red Dragon_2
Xiao Buli finally breathed a sigh of relief at that moment. He wasn't very proficient in swordsmanship originally, and he knew that relying solely on swordsmanship would definitely not be enough to defeat the Red Dragon.
Seeing He Suoju manage to hold off the creature with his swordsmanship, he immediately retreated to the side.
With a wave of his hand, Mysterious Ice Slashes flew towards Red Night one after another. While Red Night was busy crossing swords with He Suoju, he also had to dodge the Mysterious Ice Slashes with his movement technique. However, his movements were quick enough that for the moment, they couldn't do much to him. But when he focused most of his attention on He Suoju, He Suoju couldn't hold on any longer.
"Damn it, this thing is so twisted, come help me quick!" He Suoju shouted while unleashing a big move. Suddenly, a ferocious Sword Qi burst from his body, and his sword was coated in a layer of golden light, the blade's aura swelling by three feet as he delivered a Cross Slash. Even the strong Red Dragon did not dare to take the hit head-on and stepped back to dodge. This was He Suoju's greatest reliance—the Art of the Sword Heart.
Over there, Du Yibo and Xiao Ge rushed up as well. Xiao Ge, being a Weapon Master, naturally took it upon himself to engage in close combat. He immediately took out his huge axe and joined the battle. Xiao Ge and He Suoju, one powerful and forceful, the other agile, complemented each other flawlessly. Along with Xiao Buli continuously shooting Mysterious Ice Slashes from the side, the battlefield was soon filled with a melee of weapon flashes and sword shadows.
It seemed that Red Night still had some energy left, but had gradually shifted from offense to defense. After a standoff, the situation increasingly tilted in Xiao Buli's favor. Those players who had scattered were gradually gathering again, afraid to attack carelessly and cause friendly fire but their presence still added pressure.
Moreover, Yi Xuan started to restore health to the four fighters on the battlefield. Red Night appeared to be growing impatient and suddenly unleashed a shockwave that stunned He Suoju and Xiao Ge, sending countless crimson Sword Qi from his Flowing Fire Longsword in all directions.
These Sword Qi clearly carried a flame effect, but it was still primarily a Sword Qi attack, and in some sense, it was quite similar to Xiao Buli's Mysterious Ice Slash.
Seeing the situation turning dire, Du Yibo immediately used an Earth Escape to get out, while Xiao Buli raised his Lava Barrier. He Suoju, with his swordsmanship as his strong suit and agile body, managed to dodge a few, but the sheer number of blades was too much. He could only meet them head-on with the Art of the Sword Heart, barely parrying a few Sword Qi. Still, his health points rapidly decreased; it seemed the Sword Qi had a burning function that would ignite flames upon contact. Fortunately for He Suoju, he was not wearing any heavy armor due to his profession, but luckily he had on the Fire-resistant Light Armor distributed by Xiao Buli before the battle, so the burning effects didn't come into full play. Even so, each attack still cost him dozens of health points. Seeing this, Xiao Buli immediately cast a couple of heals on him.
As a Weapon Master, Xiao Ge was adept in the use of weapons. He whirled his huge axe around himself, effectively creating a shield. The Sword Qi blade beams that struck it disappeared as if hitting a sponge. It turned out that the huge axe had a Soul Absorption feature that absorbed and stored any form of energy it came into contact with. If enough energy was accumulated, it could release Demonic Flame. However, against Red Night, using fire would be akin to adding wood to a furnace, so Xiao Ge was not foolish enough to employ that strategy. Nevertheless, although the axe protected his upper body's vital parts, he was hit by the dense barrage of blades a few times, losing over a hundred health points.
Of all the people involved, Xiao Buli was most worried about Xiao Ge. Seeing the symbols of health loss above his head, Xiao Buli's heart tightened, but he was relieved that with Xiao Ge's health points, these hits weren't too serious. Xiao Buli's mind eased somewhat.
Everyone, fall back! Ranged group, unleash all firepower!
As he spoke, Xiao Buli slowly retreated with his shield raised, and the others began to fall back as well, temporarily clearing the line of fire. The ranged players, upon seeing this, immediately bombarded the area with their most powerful spells without hesitation.

Xiao Buli cast Summon Heavy Rain and Freezing Cloud Skills consecutively. Dark clouds quickly gathered above Red Night, and icy raindrops began to pelt down relentlessly. These skills, typically AOE and not suited for targeting a single individual, were now advantageous for Xiao Buli since any freezing skill was beneficial. Moreover, Red Night was rooted to the spot by Du Yibo, unable to evade, with symbols of health loss appearing on him. But most of the numbers were mere single digits like -1 and -3. Without delay, Xiao Buli hit him with another Mysterious Ice Slash.
Seeing this, Red Night had to stop releasing Sword Qi and was about to pounce at the crowd when Du Yibo emerged from the ground not far from the Red Dragon. "I'll pin him down; you guys pour on the damage!" After saying that, his hands flashed with a yellow light.
"Mire Skills!"
Red Night's feet sank into the mud all at once, and he was suddenly drawn down as a barrage of long-range attacks struck him. With a flash of flame, the muddy ground beneath his feet was instantly scorched into hard soil, and he broke free within moments.
"Earth Cell Skills!" Du Yibo released another spell, and walls of earth quickly surrounded Red Night.
But the Red Dragon paid it no heed and burst out, shattering the walls as if they were cookies.
"Stone Prison Skills!" With a crack, the earthen walls swiftly hardened into stone walls, multiplying their sturdiness by many folds. The Red Dragon, unable to break through with a charge, punched with all its might and blasted a huge hole in the granite-like wall. Seeing Du Yibo ready to cast another spell, it spewed a breath of dragon fire at him.
Du Yibo was caught off guard, having not expected the Red Dragon to be able to breathe dragon fire even in human form. Although the power seemed much weaker, it was fatal enough for most people. In a panic, he transformed into his Fire Spirit Form, turning into a fiery figure. The Flame Dragon Breath left him unscathed, not a single point of health dropped. Before Red Night could recover from the shock, Xiao Buli had already ordered the remote group to cease their attack and sent He Suoju and Xiao Ge into action.
As Red Night saw the two charging at him, he had no choice but to brandish his sword to meet his foes.
Seeing this, Du Yibo breathed a sigh of relief, cancelled his Fire Spirit Form, and cast another spell—this time, Earthbind Skills.
The Red Dragon felt an intense heaviness on his feet suddenly, as though a force was continuously pulling him toward the ground. Although his high attributes meant the effect was minimal, his speed slowed down significantly.
By now, He Suoju and Xiao Ge had caught up. Red Night fought with his sword against the two of them. With his feet bound and his hands tangled with the two, he had no chance to dodge Xiao Buli's Mysterious Ice Slash and took several solid blows. His health points dropped by several hundreds in an instant, which only served to enrage Red Night further.
All of a sudden, he started shaking his body wildly, completely ignoring the three besieging him, standing his ground as swords and axes hacked into him. He roared, and a red glow emitted from him—Dragonkin form activated.
After a loud shout, his body swelled massively, growing over five meters tall. His skin sprouted layers of red scales like an additional Scale Armor, and a dragon tail grew behind him, while his limbs thickened, turning him into a monstrous half-dragon, half-human.
This enlarged Red Night immediately lunged at Xiao Ge with his sword. He had realized during their fight that He Suoju's Swordsmanship was agile and difficult to exploit to his advantage.
Xiao Buli and Du Yibo were at a distance, one above ground and the other below—he couldn't reach either. But Xiao Ge, despite ascending to Weapon Master, was newly wielding a great axe, which was heavy and slow to recover for defense. Therefore, Red Night decided to target one individual to break through their ranks one by one.
Red Night engaged in a fight with Xiao Ge, disregarding attacks from the others. After his enlargement, his defense seemed to have increased as well. Du Yibo emerged from underground, relentlessly firing skills such as Touch of Frost and Frost Arrow at Red Night.
Braving their attacks for a duel with Xiao Ge was a battle of blood. Should Xiao Ge truly engage in a blood contest with Red Night, his defeat would be certain. Despite Red Night's health being reduced to around 10% by the prior Soul Slash—still nearly twenty thousand—Xiao Ge's health was only a matter of hundreds. If Red Night landed a solid hit, it could spell instant defeat for him. (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, please visit to cast your recommendation and monthly tickets.
