Absolute Death Game-Chapter 516 - 14 Slaying the Dragon

Xiao Buli's mind was thrown into chaos, launching skills like a barrage against Red Night, hoping to bring Red Night down quickly and also hoping his attacks would draw Red Night's aggression towards himself. However, the Red Night in human form seemed to have broken away from the typical BOSS setting, and as Xiao Buli said, there was no such thing as aggro value. No matter how much they attacked, it fixated on targeting Xiao Ge.

Before the battle, Xiao Ge was full of confidence, but among the four of them, he was the weakest. The moment he saw Red Night's overwhelming force, even though his heart leaped to his throat, he gathered his composure as a pillar of the Qingyang Guild. Taking a deep breath, he steadied his mind, and his fingers flew over the keyboard, handling a pair of giant axes flawlessly.

Nevertheless, he would inadvertently get hit a couple of times, and his health points rapidly decreased.

At that time, several melee fighters had already approached the area. Seeing that the situation wasn't good, Yi Xuan began to heal Xiao Ge from a distance. Just as Xiao Buli was about to free his hands to heal Xiao Ge, he saw this and felt relieved, and Xiao Ge's health points steadily rose.

By then, a group of hunters had also arrived. Seeing that the four of them had captured Red Night's attention, they immediately let loose their arrows, attacking Red Night in rapid succession. This left Red Night caught between two fronts.

With a roar, Red Night stomped on the ground several times, which somewhat resembled the pre-ceremony actions of a shaman about to perform a ritual. Forming a spell in his hands, he unleashed another Blade of the Dragon energy-efficiently. This time, there were more Blades of the Dragon than before, and due to his height, the emission angle was more dispersed, covering the area in a series of red flashes.

It seemed that this form change might have increased the range of the Blades of the Dragon. Even though the hunters were already standing at a distance, they couldn't avoid getting attacked. Those with protective gear used it, and those without attempted to dodge if they could, or braced themselves with their equipment if they couldn't. In an instant, many lost health points.

Based on the effect of the Blades of the Dragon, the damage from physical attacks wasn't high; it seemed the main effect was the burning flames.

Small flames sprouted on everyone to different degrees, even those wearing Fire Resistance Equipment. If the players were equipped with regular gear, the consequences would be dire. Some players who had previously looked down on their equipment now felt a wave of fear.

After the Blades of the Dragon ceased, those whose health points weren't in danger continued their attacks, and those who had lost a bit more health quickly consumed potions to recover. In less than twenty seconds, they had reformed their ranks.

By that time, Red Night's health points had fallen below fifteen thousand, and it seemed to have reached the verge of a rage, with its eyes red as if they were about to bleed.

But it didn't continue to use powerful moves; instead, it intensified its attacks on Xiao Ge again. Xiao Buli felt frustrated about this, and He Suoju, unable to stand by, rushed behind Red Night to strike with his sword. However, Red Night didn't even glance in his direction, relentlessly attacking Xiao Ge, as if determined to take someone down with it before dying.

Xiao Buli realized that although Red Night was in a bad state, it wasn't unleashing any major spells. Considering the power of the moves it had used earlier were greater than when its body was normal, it seemed the Mana consumption was significant. It probably didn't have the capacity to use AOE skills for a while, so he called out to his teammates, "He's running low on spell energy, go ahead and attack him hard, Xiao Ge, if you can't hold on, retreat immediately."

Xiao Ge, fully engrossed in his showdown with the Red Dragon, had no time to reply to Xiao Buli, but in front of his computer screen, he gritted his teeth and shouted, "Shaobang, tell the boss, I won't retreat."

"OK." Shaobang, though worried about Xiao Ge, knew it wasn't the time to distract him with conversation. He replied and promptly conveyed the message to Xiao Buli in the game.

The battle on the field had reached a stalemate; hunters and melee fighters attacked Red Night non-stop, while Red Night disregarded everything else and ferociously struck at Xiao Ge. Everyone watched Xiao Ge's condition while continuing their offense, silently sweating for him.

Xiao Buli several times wanted to call someone to forcibly replace Xiao Ge, but he ultimately held back. Knowing his brother's strength from countless previous battles, he trusted in Xiao Ge's ability. Xiao Ge did not disappoint, with his operation reaching its limit. He withstood the attacks of the Red Dragon, and as the battle progressed, he became more adept and gradually mastered the rhythm.

By now, the Red Dragon's health points had dropped to less than ten thousand. Xiao Buli suddenly noticed that the Red Dragon's ferocious expression had softened, the pressure on Xiao Ge slowed, and during breaks in the fight, it kept glancing towards the volcanic crater.

Although the Dragon Clan was known for its pride, the current situation suggested that Red Night was no longer able to turn the tide. The fervent look in Red Night's eyes as it glanced towards the back of the crater puzzled Xiao Buli. It almost looked like someone scared, wanting to run back home.

Suddenly, the situation on the field changed dramatically. Red Night forced Xiao Ge back with a fierce sword strike, then suddenly turned around and ran towards the direction of the volcanic crater. This was too unexpected.

From a distance, Xiao Buli felt a sense of alarm, thinking that this creature was attempting to flee—an unprecedented situation in a BOSS battle. However, considering the peculiarities of this game, such a bizarre occurrence was not entirely unimaginable.

Therefore, Xiao Buli hardly hesitated for half a second before he shot up instantly, charging toward Red Night like lightning. The Cloud Thunder Leap he employed was a special Dharma Method Xiao Buli had painstakingly devised. Originally, Cloud Thunder Leap involved soaring to the sky and then diving down, but after experimentation and contemplation, Xiao Buli not only adapted Cloud Thunder Leap into his usual flying technique but also developed multiple ways to use it. At this moment, he was like a cannonball leaving its chamber, moving parallel to the ground at low altitude. Utilizing the ultra-fast speed of Cloud Thunder Leap's descending movement, he instantly collided with the Red Dragon, and all the players felt as if thunder had exploded by their ears. Xiao Buli had sent Red Night flying dozens of meters away, and a loss of -1030 health points floated above Red Night's head.

Moreover, with this single move from Xiao Buli, Red Night was knocked back into its original form, no longer in the five-meter-tall Dragonkin shape.

Seeing the opportunity, everyone rushed over like bloodthirsty piranhas, unleashing their targeted abilities at once. It seemed that Red Night had been struck to its core, lying on the ground motionless. Xiao Buli saw his chance, stood up, and continuously unleashed abilities on Red Night.

Forty people ganging up on one who lay there looked rather pitiable, but at that moment, everyone was seeing red, each one eager to finish it off without a second thought.

In the blink of an eye, Red Night was left with just over two thousand health points, and just then, Red Night suddenly rose with a roar, transforming into the imposing image of a Red Dragon that majestically shook its head and swung its tail to ascend into the sky. Everyone was taken aback, wondering if the Red Dragon still had an ace up its sleeve. Damn, this isn't how you're supposed to play the game.

Red Night soared into the sky and spat a Dragon Breath at everyone below. Giant Fireballs careened wildly, and those hit by them, despite having Fire Resistance, suffered hundreds of health points in damage—a couple more hits, and wouldn't they be dead?

No one dared to linger in battle, scattering frantically to evade.

Seeing its chance, the Red Dragon turned its Dragon Head and made for the volcano's mouth to escape. However, compared to Xiao Buli's lightning-fast actions when he first lured the beast, the Red Dragon's movements were now as sluggish as an 80-year-old elder.

Xiao Buli, too, was unable to dodge in time. The Red Dragon's last strike had clearly exhausted all its strength, and although Xiao Buli had high Fire Resistance, being hit by the Fireball still caused his health points to drop by hundreds, showing that by now the Fireball had become immune to Fire Resistance.

Yet even so, Xiao Buli's peripheral vision caught the Red Dragon's movement. How could he accept all the day's efforts going to waste?

Just then, a Giant Fireball rolled straight at Xiao Buli. At the last fraction of a second, the lava barrier in his hand transformed into a tall wall that shielded him.

Having caught his breath, he beckoned forth the Lava Giant Jiao. This was not with the hope of killing the Red Dragon, but rather the fear that it might escape during this chance. The Giant Jiao had fully recovered within the Sealed Space, and once it appeared, it charged at the Red Dragon with great momentum, blocking its path. Foes upon sight become exceptionally vengeful. The Red Dragon, facing its enemy, swung its tail in a Divine Dragon Tail Swing towards the Giant Jiao, but now it was at the end of its rope, with both its speed and power seriously diminished compared to its peak. The Jiao easily dodged and relentlessly clawed at the Red Dragon's body. After just two strikes, the Red Dragon let out a pitiful scream, its head drooping limply, its body collapsing without strength, and its massive form fell to the ground with a resounding crash, kicking up clouds of dust.

The once invincible Red Dragon, Red Night, perished just like that.

The Giant Jiao, too, seemed stunned by the easy victory for a moment, but being a beast, after less than a second, it began to twist and turn with its head and tail in mid-air as if showing off its triumph, roaring loudly.

The players below were busy dodging Fireballs when suddenly, tranquility took the field. With the death of the Red Dragon, the Fireballs disappeared without a trace, and a tremendous roar rang by their ears, the ground trembling beneath their feet. When they turned around, the Red Dragon's enormous body lay sprawled on the ground, while Xiao Buli's pet Giant Jiao circled and roared triumphantly above.

For a moment, stunned silence greeted their victory, but after a few seconds, the crowd erupted into cheers.

"Holy crap, we've killed a True Dragon!" As if that person never considered the Little Red Dragon to be an actual dragon.

"Time to slay Long Jianguo!"

"Victory is ours!" Various shouts of exultation followed, filling up the screen.

Xiao Buli put away the barrier, and walked slowly toward the dragon's body with a smile under the expectant gazes of the crowd. (To be continued.
