Talent Awakening: I, the Weakest Awakened, Start with Dragonfire Spell-Chapter 9 --Brutal Battle

Only at this moment did everyone clearly see the attribute panel of the colossal figure that ambushed Alec.

[Enchanted Boar King]

[Level: 21]

[Template: Iron Boss] 𝘣𝘦𝘥𝘯𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘰𝘳𝘨

[HP: 6125]

[Attack power: 315~779]

[Defense value: 521]

[Skills: Boar Charge, Tusk Smash, Burning Fat, Boar King Rampage...]

[Introduction: The leader of the enchanted boars, possessing terrifying power in its charges, capable of rivaling tigers and leopards, and smashing lions and bears. Especially when leading a tide of enchanted boars, avoidance is strongly advised...]

Witnessing this, everyone was stricken with horror, their faces pale as death, engulfed in utter despair.

Because this gargantuan boar was unmistakably a boss-level creature, a formidable leader commanding a terrifying force of monstrous troops. It was a force unstoppable, leaving desolation in its wake, a crisis no ordinary awakened team could hope to contain.

Although Alec was an awakened individual above level thirty, his strength was at most comparable to that of the Enchanted Boar King. This conclusion could only be drawn when considering individual strength alone.

Not to mention, at this moment the Enchanted Boar King had more than twenty boars under its command. Alec, already severely wounded, was clearly not a match for the Enchanted Boar King in this situation.

Had Alec not managed to wound the Enchanted Boar King as he was sent flying, preventing it from pursuing further and forcing it to stay surrounded by a cadre of enchanted boars tending to its wounds, Alec and his team would have likely already perished under the brutal assault of the boar tide.

"Carlos, what are you doing? Come back quickly..." A scream rang out. Everyone turned to see a figure darting out of the crowd, heading towards the distance.

This person moved incredibly fast, to the naked eye only a trailing afterimage could be seen.

In the leveling team, aside from the wounded and fallen Alec, the only one left with such strength was Los Glenville, the bearer of the C-level talent—Gale Phantom.

Seeing him dash, the other members of the squad who chose agility professions such as assassin and archer had a flicker in their eyes before they too broke ranks, running towards the distance.

The boar tide, intent on protecting the Enchanted Boar King, did not pursue them, allowing them to escape to safety, disappearing into the distant jungles.

Seeing this, the remaining individuals were eager to flee as well. Yet at this moment, several boars separated from the tide and encircled them, effectively blocking their last route of escape.

"Ah! Mom, Mom, I want to go home, I don't want to die!"

"Whaaa! I still aspire to become a noble awakened, to stand above others, I don't want to die so young."

"Howard, how about we... while the Enchanted Boar King is healing, just one time... I am still a virgin, I haven't experienced love-making... I don't want to die like this... Can you help me, please?"

Facing the desperate situation, some were crying hysterically, some discarded their weapons to await death, and some were lost and confused.

The whole defensive formation disintegrated in an instant, becoming completely disorganized.

More absurdly, a young woman grabbed Howard's sleeve, wanting to experience intimacy with him before they met their end — a point of desperation that was simply ludicrous.

Elsewhere, Alec, who had been sent flying by the massive Enchanted Boar King, managed to stand staggeringly after killing a few approaching boars. He looked at the surrounded students, his eyes filled with rage and his face painted with despair.

"Die, die, die, all of you just die!" Alec charged into the swarm of boars, slaughtering crazily while being knocked flying time and again, only to rise and continue the fight.

It was known that he had previously held back the boar tide's charge single-handedly. Now, however, even a few ordinary boars could send him flying, indicating the severity of his injuries.

In truth, Alec still had a chance to escape.

The ordinary boars could not catch up to him and their damage was not strong. The Enchanted Boar King, capable of inflicting substantial harm and catching up to him, had yet to recover.

At this point, if he turned around, the chance of escaping was not low.

But Alec did not flee; instead, he headed straight towards where the Enchanted Boar King was stationed, even as the guarding boars slammed into him time after time. He never showed a hint of retreat.

"As long as I kill him, the kids will have a chance to survive…" This was the only thought left in Alec's mind.

However, as his injuries intensified and the frequency with which he was sent flying increased, and the time he could stand and fight again shortened, his end seemed predetermined.

Although all this seemed to span a long duration, it only took a fleeting moment in reality.

Howard managed to break free from the persistent entreaties of the girl who sought solace in pleasure, and after a quick scan of the surroundings of the battlefield, he resolutely pulled out the Mana Drainer.

Waving it, he chanted the incantation, "O Dragon God in the flames, transform your fury into my boundless power!"

"Dragonfire spell, descend!"

Suddenly, the air in front of Howard heated up rapidly, emanating a red halo as if a ball of fire was forming. Upon closer inspection, it seemed as though a fiery beast was slumbering within the fireball, gradually awakening as the fireball grew and condensed.

"Roar! Roar roar!"

The fireball exploded, releasing a mini fire dragon that continually expanded until it transformed into a massive flame dragon spanning over ten meters in length, with a girth as wide as a water barrel.

The claws, teeth, eyes, and scales of the flame dragon were all formed from red flames. However, it was meticulously detailed and vivid, seemingly a real dragon come to life.

At this moment, the Enchanted Boar King on the other end sensed something amiss. It tried to rise but fell back down, clearly still incapacitated from the vital blow dealt by Alec in his desperate struggle.

"Grunt! Grunt grunt!"

The Enchanted Boar King let out a series of distinctive pig cries.

Although the people didn't understand its meaning, the enchanted boar tide, upon hearing these cries, began to move tumultuously.

One after another, the boars sprinted forward, their heads low as they charged towards Howard.

Clearly, the plan was to kill Howard before the fire dragon could fully form, nipping any potential resistance in the bud.

"Watch out, Howard, they're targeting you…"

"Damn it, Howard, dodge it…"

"Boar is charging at you, it's dangerous…"

Even though the people had no idea how Howard managed to summon such a fire dragon, they knew that at this moment, Howard had become their last straw of hope.

If Howard were to die under the charge of the boar tide, the only thing awaiting them would be death.

Unexpectedly, facing the charging boar tide, Howard appeared not to be panicked but rather delighted.

He waved the Mana Drainer in his hand again, pointing towards the direction the boar tide was coming from, and shouted, "Fire dragon, kill!"

Under Howard's command, the fire dragon circling in the sky dived down, its enormous mouth wide open, unleashing a shower of fireballs the size of washbasins.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

The moment the fireballs hit the ground, explosive blasts erupted.

A boar was hit squarely and was sent flying by the blast of a fireball.

By the time the boar landed again, only a mostly intact pig's head remained; the rest of its body had either been blown apart, scattered away, or turned into charred fragments.

[Ding! You have killed a lv13 Enchanted boar and earned 115 experience points!]

A beam of white light flew out from the boar's corpse and entered Howard's body, giving him a warm and comfortable feeling all over.

Simultaneously, a cold and mechanical system notification sounded.

[Ding! Congratulations Awakened Howard, you have leveled up to level 2, receiving the following attribute growth:]

[1. You gain 100 HP and 250 mana attribute growth!]

[2. You gain 2 points in strength, 2 in constitution, 1 in agility, and 5 in spirit attribute growth!]

[3. You gain 2 free attribute points and 1 skill point attribute growth!]

Howard looked at the changes in the attribute panel and the words 'lv2 (104/200)' and felt a touch of joy in his heart.

But this was not the end, it was just the beginning.

The fire dragon executed another spiral in the sky, with explosive fireballs continuously raining down, another boar was blasted to death on the spot.

[Ding! Congratulations Awakened Howard, you have killed a lv13 Enchanted boar, gaining 115 experience points!]

[You have leveled up, now at level 3, check the details yourself!]

And with the addition of the 115 experience points to his previous remainder, Howard's level reached 'lv3 (19/400)'!

Again, a searing ray of fire swept down, slicing several Enchanted boars into sections as if they were made of butter.

[…Gained 115 experience points!]

[…Gained 115 experience points!]

[…Gained 115 experience points!]

With the sound of four experience gain notifications, Howard once again felt that warm and comforting surge of energy sweeping over him.

[…You have leveled up, now at level 4, check the details yourself!]
