Transmigrated as a Ghost-Chapter 72 - 71 Three Minutes To Win

Staring up at the massive beast that he was currently fighting Marcus wondered if he had gotten way in over his head.

He thought about retreating as he was under no obligation to save Mrazivy and could probably get away so long as he reverted to his ghost form.

However, Marcus quickly shook this though out of his head, he had come down here with the express purpose to find her and he knew that letting her die would cut off plenty of advantageous avenues for him.

'I will give it my best shot and if that is not enough then I can retreat.'

Steeling himself Marcus, cast his iron sphere, and brought forth his spectral hand ready to engage the boss of the third layer once again.

Shooting forward with his iron sphere on his left side and his spectral hand on his right Marcus charged directly for the monster before him.

In return the boss of the third layer looked at him almost mockingly as if it was thinking about how silly it was for this tiny thing to challenge its power.

Approaching with a burst of speed Marcus found his first obstacle to be one of the monster's lobster claws which had come down to crush him.

Spinning on the tip of his toes Marcus moved around the lobster claw, getting closer to the main body of the boss monster.

Seeing that Marcus had evaded its fist attack the beast picked up its right paw and brought it down with immense force.

jumping into the air to dodge and aiming to attack the monsters face Marcus readied his scythe for a powerful slash.

Of course, now that he was in the air, the boss of the third layer thought that Marcus would be an easy target and brought down its second lobster claw, expecting to smash Marcus back into the ground.

However, before the claw impacted him Marcus used his spectral hand as a midair foot hold and leaped forward directly for the monster's face. And while the boss of the third layer was surprised by Marcus' midair evasion he was still heading for its head, so it simply opened its mouth intent on eating him with one huge bite.

Again, right before the monsters toothy maw sank down into Marcus, he used his iron sphere as another foot hold jumping just above the boss's jaw and right in front of his target.

With his strategy having worked and being able to create and opening Marcus swung his scythe and even added his searing weapon spell to the blade before he cut deep into the left eye of the beast.

Blood and other fluids then began to burst out of the destroyed eye some of them boiling into mist from the heat of Marcus' weapon.

Unfortunately, at that moment the boss of the third level experiencing the indescribable pain of having its eye cut open and burned started thrashing about in a frenzy.

Jumping off the monster's face Marcus tried to get back to the ground and get to a safe distance but on the way down the tentacles that made up the monster's mane began thrashing about and a couple of them connected with Marcus blowing him away.

Smashing against the ground and sliding for a few dozen feet Marcus quickly regained his bearings and jumped back to his feet ready to continue the battle.

Looking over towards the boss monster Marcus could see that its expression had changed from one of playful indifference to that of seething rage.

The boss of the third layer then let off a powerful roar that shook the entire room before swing its tail forward at Marcus and shooting of a barrage of its tail spines at him.

Not expecting the sudden flurry of spines Marcus hastily avoided the attack that was equivalent to multiple tanks opening fire, except he found that his escape route had been left open on purpose and the boss monster was waiting for him.

It then let loose a rush of paw swipes trying to slice apart Marcus who was just barley able to keep up.

However, when it started adding in attacks from both of its lobster claws Marcus was having immense trouble dodging ever attack.

Soon he was overwhelmed, now that the boss monster was no longer playing around with him and taking their fight seriously Marcus had no openings to counterattack, and it was only a matter of time before he was hit.

Trying to create some distance between him and the boss monster Marcus charged his right boot with mana before slamming it down and creating a twenty-foot-tall wave of water.

Unfortunately, the boss monster simply opened its mouth and released another jet of boiling water from its mouth blowing apart the wave and nearly engulfing Marcus who just managed to get out of the way.

Except in his path lay one of the boss monster's lobster claws ready to grab him like a vice.

'I guess I have no choice, time to give it a try.'

After that thought right before the claw grabbed a hold of him and crushed him, Marcus suddenly vanished, and the boss monster's lobster claw was falling to the ground severed from its body.

Giving off earsplitting howl of pain and anger the boss monster looked around for the little being that had caused it more damage than it ever thought possible and when its one good eye landed on Marcus, it saw that he was slightly glowing with a soft white light.

The boss monster could tell that the aura that Marcus was now emitting felt far more dangerous than before and even felt a tinge of fear for the first time.

Quickly checking himself out Marcus could feel his body brimming with power, now that he had activated his soul burst unique skill for the first time.

Understanding just how much stronger he was now Marcus looked up at the boss monster and gave a chilling grin.

'Time to get serious I have three minutes before my soul burst runs out and I am a sitting duck.'

Coming up with a quick plan Marcus first summoned forth another iron golem expect this time now that his stats had doubled the iron golem was an even higher level than him at level thirty.

Now standing at twenty feet tall the far larger and more powerful iron golem was ready to fight and would not be batted around so easily.

Allowing his iron golem to charge the boss monster head on Marcus made his way around the left side of it where its lobster claw had been severed.

The boss monster tried the same thing it did the first time Marcus executed this strategy but unlike last time found that the iron golem could hold its ground and caught its paw swipe.

Like wise it tried to knock Marcus away with a tail strike but now that Marcus' stats were doubled his speed was many times higher and he easily slipped past the tail and under the boss monster.

Now under its exposed belly Marcus leaped up and jammed his scythe into the flesh of its stomach before bring his spectral hand out and grabbing hold of it with his left hand it.

He then used his spectral hand to pull himself across the entire length of boss monster slicing open its stomach.

Letting off another howl of anger the boss monster tried to launch another barrage of tail spines under it to skewer Marcus, but he had already come out from below it and delivered a powerful slash to its right side.

At the same time his iron golem connected a powerful punch to its face causing some of its fangs to shatter and break off.

Enraged by the to attack the boss monster wrapped its mane tentacles around the iron golem's arm before using its remaining fangs to bite down on the arm and rip it off.

It had also retaliated against Marcus swinging its remaining lobster claw right for him trying to crush him.

Except, Marcus cast his iron threads and attached them to the claw and launched himself above it and as he was passing by unleashed another powerful slash cutting through the second lobster claw.

Afraid of its worsening situation the boss monster bashed Marcus's iron golem away and using its wings leaped into the air to get away from it and Marcus.

Flying to the top of the three-hundred-foot-tall ceiling, the boss monster figured it could pelt its enemies from the sky with its tail spines and unleash its boiling water breath attack to finish them off.

Unfortunately, now that it was in the air where it was less nimble Marcus condensed a colossal amount of mana into his left hand before unleashing another thunderbird strike right for the boss monster.

Seeing the incoming dangerous mass of electricity that was now as large as it was, the boss monster once again released a torrent of boiling water from its mouth to try counter Marcus' spell. 𝘧𝚛𝗲𝘦𝚠𝙚𝙗𝙣o𝙫𝗲𝚕.𝐜o𝓂

But unlike last time the water was unable to overpower Marcus' tier four lightning magic spell and the electricity ran throughout its body causing it massive damage and its muscles to seize up.

Marcus seeing the boss monster now plummeting toward the ground and running out of time, ran over to his iron golem and jumped onto its remaining arm. ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣ｏ𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

He then ordered the iron golem to throw him up toward the boss monster and with all of its strength the iron golem launched him forward.

Flying up with incredible speed Marcus charged his scythe with as much mana as he could, and the powerful mana unable to be contained within the blade spread out creating the image of a ten-foot-long scythe.

Swinging up with everything he had the powerful mana scythe sliced through the neck of the falling boss monster causing its head to separate from its body.

The now two parts of the boss monster then slammed into the ground causing two separate craters and Marcus impacted into the ceiling of the room.

Realizing he was about to fall Marcus attached his iron threads to the ceiling and lowered himself back down to the ground and looking at the severed head and body of the boss monster Marcus knew he had won.
