I Am Legend 27 Blue Giant Lake Serpent 2

Azalea was still in shock by the scene in front of her until his question brings her back to reality. She blushed and awkwardly replied, "Ah, yes. I'm fine…"

Ryth nodded as he turned back to the serpent in front of him. "Okay, good," he said. "We will need to finish off this serpent now. So, we need you to focus on damaging the serpent.

And later, we will need your barrier spells. Just be alert and cast whenever you can," he continued.

Azalea nodded, looking serious.

Ryth sighed to himself. "Demn it. What a waste of that magic scroll… Ahhhh whatever. Life is more important."

He then shouted in the team chat. "Llyod! Lets go! We need to end this really fast! Hill, Azalea! Keep on attacking the serpent! Make sure to target its vulnerable parts!"

"Understood!" Everyone answered in unison.

Azalea immediately changed her position away from Ryth. This is to ensure that the serpent would not be able to launch any same kind of attacks in one go.

Ryth quickly run towards the blue serpent, dodging the water attacks that the blue serpent spouted out. Llyod helped by attacking in front, making sure that the blue serpent does not get closer to them.

The land around the area was all wet making movement on the gra.s.s difficult. Ryth had to focus his mana on his feet so that he won't accidentally slip.

Hill, crouching on one of the branches in the tree, repeatedly shoot arrows towards the serpent.

"SHAAA!" it swung its tail to Llyod.

"BOOM!"

Llyod was not able to avoid the swing attack on time and got thrown to the side, smas.h.i.+ng against a big boulder. However, he was not fully hurt due to him blocking the attack with his greatsword. However, it also made the durability of his greatsword decreased by a lot.

The blue serpent immediately slithered towards Llyod, ready to attack him.

Ryth smirked at the serpent's actions. "Did it just forget about me?" He then moved his sword to the right, activating a skill from the distance as he slashed [Vengeance] and [Ryuujin's Will] diagonally.

{Cosmic Vibes}!

Ryth cut the air, making the two forces gushed out from the slashes. It then landed on the blue serpent before it could attack Llyod.

"BOOM!"

"SHAAA!"

It angrily turned to Ryth. It changed its direction and moved towards Ryth, letting out a water stream attack from its mouth.

"WOOs.h.!.+"

{Fast Steps} cooldown had already ended so he quickly activated it again, avoiding the attack. After avoiding it, Ryth quickly increase his speed towards the blue serpent.

{Stream of Light}!

The streak of lights suddenly surrounded the blue serpent, making it difficult to move as it struggled in the bind. With a scream of pain and anger, it lifted its huge tail and slammed it on the ground.

"BOOM!"

The small trees and rocks near the area went flying, due to the effect of the blue serpent's tail attack.

Ryth had already jumped back to avoid the tail attack before it had happened. However, Llyod who was still leaning against the boulder, tried to stood up but was blown again further, knocking against a large tree.

Hill grabbed on the branch he was crouching on while Azalea grabbed onto a nearby tree to avoid being blown away, as well.

"Are you okay, Llyod?!" Ryth shouted in concern.

"Ugh! Cough! I'm fine."

Ryth heaved a sigh of relief.

He then turned to Hill and Azalea and found that the both of them were alright. It seems that they are ready to attack the serpent again.

{Wind Gust}!

{Wind Spear}!

{Wind Piercer}!

"BOOM!"

Llyod carefully stood up and posed an offensive stance. He then jumped forward, activating his skill.

{Ground Splitter!}

"BOOM!"

-12422

Llyod attacked the serpent, targeting its vulnerable areas.

The serpent screamed in pain.

"SHAAA"!

Its HP gradually fell, it hit 15% mark.

As it weakens, the serpent began to realized that it could not win against Ryth and his group. It tried to retreat back to safety.

"It's trying to escape!" Hill shouted.

"Azalea, any skill that might stop it from escaping?" Ryth asked as he chased after the blue serpent.

Azalea shook her head. "I don't!"

Ryth sighed. "Never mind," he said, as he activated {Fast Steps}. His body glowed with white lights while his weapon, [Vengeance] glowed with dark green light.

{Unleashed}!

+50 STR

+50 AGI

{Beyond the Boundary}!

(AGI and STR status rose by 70%!)

"WUs.h.!.+"

Power gushed from Ryth's body as his AGI and STR increaser. {Fast Steps} became even faster than before.

Ryth then shouted, "Azalea! Make as many solid flat water barriers around the serpent! Just randomly place it up in different places!"

"Eh?!" Azalea was confused but then she hurriedly replied, "O-okay!"

She began chanting, and suddenly, many water barriers appeared, floating in the air near the big serpent.

The blue serpent was getting closer to the lake as it began to retreat.

Ryth quickly jumped towards the nearest barrier, his swords began to radiate blue lights as he activated his skill.

{Starry Night}!

"SLASH, SLASH, SLAs.h.!.+"

Ryth jumped to the other barriers, one after another as he slashed the big serpent with his swords.

Lines blue light sparkled in the air, it was really an amazing view to see.

"SHAAA!"

"Eh?! He just used my barriers as his stepping stones?!" Azalea exclaimed in shock. Never did she expected that this kind of movement can be used as a support for offensive attacks.

Llyod and Hill who were watching from afar were looking proud and amazed at the same time. They were so proud at seeing how their Lord has become very skilled and talented when it comes to strategy and movements.

When the blue lights slowly disappeared, Ryth quickly jumped to the highest barrier that Azalea. He then jumped backwards as he activated another skill in the air.

{Hedgehog}!

-22102

"SHAAA!"

The blue serpent's HP fell to 0 instantly. With Ryth's strength and agility exceeding 100 points, his attacks soared leaps and bounds. The blue serpent fell to the ground with a loud "BOOM!" sound.

+350.000 EXP

Ryth sheathed back his swords and went down using the barriers.

Azalea was in a daze as she saw Ryth from the distance.

She knew that this man must have a lot of battle experiences since he also know about the characteristic of magic. If not, how did he know about that how you could use the barriers as stepping stones?

Azalea was also excited at the same time because as a swordswoman, what Ryth had shown during this battle was amazing. She can also make use of these insights as her way of learning. Especially in a group battle.

Both Llyod and Hill walked towards Ryth, who was standing beside the corpse of the blue serpent.

Llyod patted Ryth on the shoulder as he complimented, "That was amazing! When I saw those blue lights forming that many lines in the air. I was mesmerised that I forgot about my wounds for a moment."

Hill stood beside Ryth and asked, "Are you alright, my lord?"

Ryth smiled in a.s.surance as he wiped the blue blood of the serpent on his clothes. "Yeah, I'm good."

When Azalea reached the three of them, Ryth looked over and thanked her. "Thanks again for your help in this battle."

Azalea nodded. "No problem."

Ryth gestured at the corpse and said, "We will take the loots first while you can rest under those trees over there." He then took a bottle of water from his bag and pa.s.sed it to Azalea. "Here you go. You can have this."

Azalea was hesitant at first.

Ryth then realized what's the problem and said awkwardly, "Uh, don't worry. There's nothing suspicious about this drink."

He took the bottle back from her and drank some without touching the rim of the bottle with his lips. "See? There's nothing," he a.s.sured her.

Azalea felt ashamed for suspecting his good will towards her and accepted back the bottle of water from him. "Thank you."

"No problem." Ryth waved his hand, indicating that it's not a big deal.

Azalea walked to the nearest big tree and rest while the three of them began to loot the blue serpent's corpse.

"WUHUU! This is great! I could make another special material equipments from its fang and scale! Ku ku ku!"

Ryth jumped in shocked.

"Demmit, Daedalus! Don't suddenly shout in my head! I know you're excited but calm down!" Ryth scolded.

"Ku ku ku! Sorry!"

Ryth drawn out {Ryuujin's Will} and cut its fangs.

Llyod and Hill took the scales from the corpse and pa.s.s it to Ryth.

(Added to inventory)

"Hmmm… Seems like there are still many scales I can pick out from its body. I should get as many I can," Ryth mused to himself.

"Well, I guess these loots can compensate for that magic scroll," Ryth whistled happily.

After some time, they have finally finished with their looting. By that time, it was already late afternoon.

Ryth and the other two walked towards Azalea, who was resting underneath the shade of the tree. Ryth then said to her, "Lets go. We will be heading back to the Dark Elves village."
