After going into the sea, I met the witch lady

Chapter 150 The “despicable” monster hunter (please subscribe)

The wide and flat cave floor is like a carefully prepared arena. At this moment, the two sides standing opposite each other on the arena, one holding a big sword, and the other holding a giant sword from the tail of a dragon.

The war is about to break out!

"Clang, clang, clang..."

The sharp tail blade cut through the rock that was stronger than gold and iron, bringing up a large number of sparks. The [Grand Rank] Sword Dragon Slayer, who had "charged" to the limit, "drawn the sword" brazenly.

The giant sword wrapped in red flames turned into an elegant semicircle in mid-air, just like the rising sun, splitting the dark curtain.

The dazzling sharp edge left white marks on Ryan's unprotected skin even before it reached his body.

Ryan's eyes were calm, but deep in his pupils, there was accumulated fighting spirit.

[Grand Rank] Sword-Slaying Dragon was the first "Grand Rank Monster" he challenged. No matter how cautious he was, however, facing an enemy who also used "weapons", the swordsmen were speechless. The tacit understanding made him unwilling to back down.

The battle between swordsmen naturally depends on the weapons in their hands!

"what!"

With a loud shout, Ryan's body surface ignited with surging spiritual flames.

[Storm Battle Body], open!

The professional skill from [Storm Fighter (Level 53.5)] suddenly increased Ryan's [Spirituality] by %, a huge increase!

The power of [Storm Sword Skill] depends on [Spirituality] and [Physique], and the increase of [Spirituality] can increase the power of the sword skill to a certain extent.

Through the previous "preliminary test" where the blood spear was smashed by the tail blade, Ryan could judge that the sword skills he used purely with [Physique] would most likely not be the opponent of the [Grand Rank] Sword-Slaying Dragon.

When the giant edge was about to come, Ryan completed the "three stages of charging" and slashed out with a sword.

Green and blue, two-color aura intertwined on the black and yellow sword, which is the mixed damage of water and wind attributes given by [Storm Battle Body].

"clang--!"

The sharp sound of collision resounded through the cave, and the aftermath of the dissipated sword energy left fine cracks on the surrounding walls.

The huge force rolled back along the big sword. Ryan's expression changed suddenly, and his body flew backwards involuntarily. He landed more than ten meters later. Centered on the place where his feet landed, spider web-like cracks spread.

The ground in volcanic areas is composed of hard volcanic rock, basalt and other stones, which is quite solid.

"What a violent slash!"

The fighting spirit in Ryan's eyes remained unchanged, but his eyes became more solemn.

Not counting the Blood Spear, this time was the real first confrontation between him and the [Grand Rank] Sword-Slaying Dragon, both of which were just a taste of each other.

But the difference is very obvious - in terms of pure strength, Ryan is more than one step behind.

"Is this the value of the 'Crown'?"

The hands holding the sword were numb. Ryan twisted his neck and looked at the [Crown Position] Stegosaurus retracting its tail blade in the distance like a swordsman sheathing a sword. He grinned and said:

"Then the real battle begins."

A piece of meat was swallowed by Ryan, and a black shadow hovered around the sword, making the air tremble.

——[Food War·The Sorrow of the Black Roaring Dragon]

"Boom!"

The ground was cracked, and horrifying cracks spread. Under the influence of the huge counter-shock force, Ryan's body was like an arrow from the string, rushing towards the [Grand Position] Sword-Slaying Dragon, and the sword in his hand was dragged out of a narrow black streak. film.

Faced with Ryan's active attack, the [Crown] Sword-Slaying Dragon raised its head and opened its huge mouth slightly. The next moment, a terrifying roar spread, and wherever the sound wave passed, gravel and dust flew up.

Affected by the sound waves, Ryan's forward movement was slightly stagnant, but thanks to the special skill [Earplugs lv. 2] attached to [Trophy: Jaw of Black Roar], he was not significantly affected. , the reason why the movement stagnated was due to the instinctive action of the sound wave.

In the swirling smoke, a huge red blade tore through the layers of smoke and arrived in front of Ryan.

Astonishingly, it was the tail blade slash of the [Crown] Sword-Slashing Dragon while roaring.

Even with the blessing of "Food War", the speed has been increased by 20%, Ryan still feels that the speed of this tail blade sweep is astonishingly fast.

In addition, Yanchen's line of sight was obstructed, and it might have been another hunter who would have hated him on the spot.

Unfortunately, Ryan is not an ordinary hunter. He has many more methods than ordinary hunters.

Two "blood cores" appeared on his shoulders, expanding the "blood barrier".

There was a crisp "click" sound, and dense cracks appeared on the surface of the blood barrier hit by the tail blade. The color of the two "blood cores" dimmed to the bottom, and they were only one step away from being broken.

The full-blooded blood barrier developed based on 169.3 [Physique] was on the verge of breaking after only being touched once.

In fact, if Ryan had not "fed" his blood to [Holy Relic: Blood Embrace] immediately after deploying the blood barrier, thereby converting blood energy to strengthen the blood barrier, after receiving this blow, the blood barrier would not be It was on the verge of breaking, but it exploded directly.

Facing the "high-ranking" monster, the full-blooded blood barrier can last at least two times, but in front of the "crown-ranking" monster, even one attack is very difficult.

But no matter what, Ryan really took this tail blade sweep.

The counter-shock force generated from the blood barrier caused the tail blade of the [Crown] Sword Slayer to rise backwards.

His own blow was unable to break this weird eggshell, which surprised the [Grand Rank] Sword-Slaying Dragon, but its offensive did not stop.

I saw the [Crown] Sword-Slaying Dragon opening its bloody mouth. Deep in its throat, there seemed to be a red color brewing, and it was biting towards Ryan.

People who have not experienced the terrifying scene of facing a giant beast more than 20 meters high and attacking downwards cannot understand it at all.

You can imagine a little bit about the scene in the film and television works where the great white shark opens its bloody mouth, and you can probably understand one or two of them.

[Crown] The sword-killing dragon's angry mouth was much larger than Ryan's entire body. If he bit it down, the thick and sharp dragon teeth would be enough to crush him directly.

The current blood barrier could not possibly withstand this bite.

When the crisis struck, Ryan's eyes did not panic.

After unfolding the blood barrier, he concentrated on accumulating power.

And now, his energy accumulation has reached the most critical moment.

The accumulated spirituality and power were compressed into the purest ball, and then exploded. The power, powerful enough to break the waves, was completely concentrated on the sword.

The scorching flames surged up, and the intensity was far greater than the previous confrontation between Ryan and Pope Libra.

The moment the big sword was unsheathed, Ryan successfully triggered "Knowing Heart" and "Fatal Strike". Coupled with the [Secret of the Fire Field] stimulated by massive blood loss, the power of this sword reached an unprecedented peak.

"kill!"

With a loud shout, the big sword was slashed out in anger. At this moment, even the 100-meter-shattering sea wave would be dumped by it. The sword was slashed hard and fell hard on the chin of the [Crown] Sword-Slaying Dragon. "Boom——!"

The roar and roar flooded the entire cave, and the hot dragon's blood flew out amidst the whine. The huge body of the [Crown] Sword-Slaying Dragon involuntarily retreated and leaned back. The attacked chin, scales, and muscles all It disappeared, leaving only the white jawbone and teeth.

If it is a "high-ranking" monster, even a "high-ranking three-star", if its head is hit by such a heavy blow, it will inevitably fall into a coma. However, the Sword-Slaying Dragon is a powerful monster at the "Crown Rank" level, and its strength is far from comparable to that of a "high-ranking" monster.

Although the sword caused serious injuries to it, instead of causing it to faint, it actually further aroused its ferocity.

Originally, facing a small creature like Ryan, the [Crown] Stegosaurus hunted with a joking attitude, but now, with its own injury, it truly realized that even though this short creature was even connected to its knees There is no height, but it is enough to threaten life.

"Roar--!"

A far louder roar sounded than before, forcing Ryan away who tried to get closer. The red color in the throat of the [Crown] Sword-Slaying Dragon became intense and hot. It lowered its head and bit the coiled coil with its own mouth. The tail blade of the body.

"Tear, pull, pull..."

Like the sound of tempering gold and iron, the tail blade turned red when soaked in red liquid, and the surrounding air twisted sharply.

Ryan's expression became solemn.

A low-end version of the "Blood Spear" appeared in his hand, and he threw it out, landing on the [Grand Rank] Sword Slayer Dragon, trying to interrupt the opponent's "charge", but unfortunately, "Grand Rank" "The monster's shell armor is too strong. The low-end version of the "Blood Spear" only broke through the outermost layer of defense. After penetrating a few centimeters, it became stuck on it without any further support.

And such an injury is less serious than a mosquito bite to the [Crown] Stegosaurus.

The pressure gathering like a whirlpool enveloped the entire venue, and Ryan could almost predict that the [Grand Rank] Sword-Slaying Dragon's carefully accumulated slash would be so powerful that it could not be compared to the previous attacks.

Even if he puts up a full "blood barrier" again, he can't stop it.

Not to mention, the current blood energy of [Holy Relic·Blood Embrace] cannot be used to fully consume the "blood core".

That being the case...

"call……"

Ryan let out a breath, and with his thoughts, his spirituality suddenly changed drastically.

Ice-blue aura shone on his body. He raised his hand, held the [Light Crossbow·Smashed Ice], and pulled the trigger.

The flying crossbow arrow landed on the body of the [Crown Position] Sword Slayer Dragon. Not only was it unable to cause any damage, but the force of the rebound caused the crossbow arrow to break. However, Ryan did not expect the attack of this weapon to break through the defense. , his goal is to make the professional skill [Happy Freezing Aura] take effect.

Starting from the broken crossbow arrow, a faint frost spread on the surface of the [Crown] Stegoslayer's body. Even the scorching red tail blade became slightly darker in color under the influence of the frost.

——[Happy Freezing Aura]: After hitting an enemy, the speed is reduced by 17%, lasting 3.4 seconds. (With Ryan’s current [Spirituality] of 33.5)

The speed at which [Happy Freezing Aura] decreases is not speed in the conventional definition, but all concepts related to "speed" in the body will be slowed down.

The freezing had a big impact on the [Crown Rank] Stegosaurus, but as its muscles tightened, the power of the "flame sac" in the throat area increased, completely completing the "red heat" of the tail blade, like The peerless weapon that is fully opened exudes frightening edge and heat.

"Chong-"

With its right foot as the fulcrum, the tense body of the [Crown Position] Stegosaurus was like a long bow stretched to its limit. The moment the red-hot tail blade was "unsheathed", the entire cave was illuminated red.

Under the influence of [Happy Freezing Aura], the red-hot tail blade that would have left Ryan no time to react slowed down enough for Ryan to see its trajectory clearly.

The sword was raised and held in front of him, and Ryan took a defensive stance one step ahead.

"clang!"

Blood filled the air and the moment before the red tail blade came, Ryan rushed forward and used [Special Sword Skill - Defensive Collision].

The "Hegemonic Blood Film" twisted into twists and pieces at the moment of collision, and then shattered. During the collision, blood overflowed from all of Ryan's orifices, and his body was hit hard. He hit the rock wall behind and dived deeply into it. .

The [Grand Rank] Sword-Slaying Dragon, who has become completely serious, has shown the ultimate combat power of the "Grand Rank" that is why it is called the "Grand Rank". Even the "Higher Three-Star" Princess Blazing Spider is far from being able to compare with it. .

That is, the huge gap in levels can no longer be bridged by quantity.

The obstruction of the "Hegemonic Blood Film" has reduced the attack of the Red Tail Blade by more than 40%. In addition, the % damage reduction of [Chorned Dragon Armor] and [Dragon Helm Armor] have reduced the power of this attack. When in Ryan's body, he only had less than % of his peak power.

But even so, Ryan still felt severe pain all over his body at this moment. The tibias of both his arms were shattered, a large section of his ribs was broken, and his internal organs were bleeding profusely.

With just one blow, he was seriously injured and on the verge of death.

Not far away, the [Grand Position] Sword-Slashing Dragon, after the collision, the red tail blade returned to its peak power after the collision, and continued to slash towards Ryan who was embedded in the rock mass.

Once this blow is carried out, Ryan will definitely die.

And right now, Ryan had no energy left to resist.

The blood core and special sword skills have been used up. Even the [Chorned Dragon Armor] showed large cracks after the previous slash, and the degree of damage reduction was greatly reduced. Only the master-level [Dragon Helmet] remains. It is strong and can reduce damage by 20%, but it cannot play a decisive role at all.

The seriousness of the [Grand Rank] Sword-Slaying Dragon was far more powerful than Ryan had expected.

Even though he had completed the promotion of two career paths and his strength had improved dramatically, he still fell by more than one level in a head-on confrontation.

The gap between "top" and "crown" is too big.

His current strength is roughly between "three stars at the top" and "one star at the top". He is in an embarrassing situation of being less than above and more than below.

At this critical moment of life and death, Ryan's eyes were very calm.

His pupils reflected the rapidly approaching red tail blade. Only then did he truly understand why the prompt on the panel focused on the title "Seering Blade".

"Ah……"

Ryan chuckled, looked at the crimson tail blade that was coming from the explosion, and said softly: "Explosion."

The moment Ryan's words fell, the [Grand Rank] Sword-slayer Dragon let out a low explosion. Its body surface was covered with purple veins, and there was an extremely high level of "real damage". Exploded directly.

——[Gospel]: Hitting an enemy with an attack or being hit by an enemy's attack will superimpose a layer of marks on the enemy's body. When the mark reaches five layers, a "happy burst" can be generated, which forcibly lowers the upper limit of the enemy's spirituality and vitality. 20%.

From the beginning of the battle to now, Ryan has left more than five "gospel marks" in the body of [Grand Rank] Sword-Slayer Dragon.

The damage mechanism of "Happiness Burst" has a far more severe impact on living organisms than Ryan imagined.

The crimson tail blade of the [Grand Rank] Sword-Slayer Dragon lost its accuracy and fell on the rock wall not far from Ryan. In an instant, the rocks collapsed, and the [Grand Rank] Sword-Slayer Dragon also collapsed with it. The ground was filled with smoke and dust.

The "Gluttony Heart" operates at high speed, and in conjunction with the [First-Level Healing Crystal] that Ryan swallowed, he quickly heals the injuries in his body.

Breaking free from the ruins, Ryan looked at the [Crown] Sword-Slaying Dragon, which slowly stood up from the smoke and swollen with blood due to rage, and grinned.

"The Great Sword Swordsman is offline."

"Now, it's dastardly monster hunter time."
