Omega Summoner

Chapter 824: Overcoming Despair

The face of the contestants could be seen sinking when they saw the health that they decreased to less than half is now back to full. The orbs that floated near them also decreased in number and only generated one color per minute.

This did not deter the contestants as they must now use another set of their powerful skills to defeat their opponents. The next best thing that they could do would be to kill the five monsters in an hour as the power scaling for the King of Twilight is already done by 45%.

If the contestants are happy about something, then that would be the death of the Sunburst Yatagarasu. The healing bird died but it also gave them an unwelcomed parting gift. The five monsters also seemed enraged as their attacks became 50% stronger and blocking their attacks are no longer advised.

Totem had no choice but to lead the attack against the Twilight Harmony Dragon as those in their group are not great at battles that take long. Battling a dragon is a battle of attrition because they cannot be killed using burst damage and one must use piercing attacks.

Fortunately, the German national team and the Brazilian national team had players that focus on dealing penetrating damage. Totem might not like that his team will deal less damage or get as much contribution points, but he must compromise.

If they do not defeat the dragon before the gauge of the King of Twilight, then the Twilight Harmony Dragon will be the least of their problems. Totem needed to stack five possessions which made his body go in a state of breaking down. He might be a druid, but he is still human, and the human body can only take a specific amount of stress.

”Human! You would dare!” Kanlaon shouted at them which did not greatly shock the contestants.

Totem actually pinned down a dragon that is much bigger than him, but he also received help from Eis as she continuously showered the Twilight Harmony Dragon with ice chunks. Faust would then create fire rings that would sear the flesh of the dragon, but it also made his mana disappear quickly.

As Totem with the help of the others pinned the Twilight Harmony Dragon, one of them finally noticed a scale just below the chin of the dragon that is different. The scale might be small, but it is slightly off in color compared to the shining scales of the Twilight Harmony Dragon.

The moment someone shouted the location of the reverse scale, everyone eyed at it like hungry wolves. They now have a great chance in getting more contribution points as killing the dragon would not be a pipe dream. They eyed the reverse scale as if it is the last food in the plate and they have been starved for days.

”I guess that is it for Kanlaon. It is a pity, but they became more aggressive in attacking. If they only focused on defending like they were before then I might have been able to decrease their numbers again.” Adrian muttered but his heart is hiding his disappointment.

Adrian might have wanted to fight back more but he also needed to conform with the flow of the battle. He can no longer give commands after an hour and a half of the whole time. He must act like a dungeon boss after all, and he did not want to give away that a player is controlling the monsters.

His other soulbounds are experiencing the same treatment as the players have become more aggressive. They might have been caught in the flow of the battle as they wanted to pace themselves at first. The first of his soulbounds to fall was Dodu as the Dark Ocean Slime is weak against magical attacks even if it becomes empowered.

The altar where the Dark Ocean Slime was transferring its power suddenly became dim and part of it suddenly started to crumble. When the health of the Dark Ocean Slime dropped to zero, they could see a ball of black light shot towards the center altar. This black ball of light is floating beside the small fading light where the Sunburst Yatagarasu used to be.

The next one to fall is the Myriad Colors Tiger King that cannot defend itself against the assault of the God Slayer Weapon. Adrian knew that Hou Yiwei will also be the biggest threat against him later as he also has the qualities of a divine being.

When the Myriad Colors Tiger King died, the altar where it is located also dimmed and became ruined. A ball of light that looked like different colors blinking shot towards the main altar. There are now three balls of light that is hovering above the altar of the King of Twilight.

The third to fall is the Twilight Harmony Dragon. Adrian told Kanlaon that it did a great job enduring getting attacked while being pinned down. He still managed to kill a quarter of the players attacking him. An explosion of light and darkness ensued when the Twilight Harmony Dragon fell from battle.

Kanlaon managed to release Blight before getting killed which affected the players that were left alive. The altar dimmed and crumbled while a soul with that has half white and black flames shot towards the center altar.

When the three monsters fell, a bridge that connected the five altars suddenly formed. Players that managed to defeat their respective sub bosses went and participated on the other two monsters. The Undying Abyss Wraith welcomed new people as it got to absorb more health, but it met its match when Anastacia came to its altar.

The Abyss Link skill is then put to a halt as her presence alone made life elemental energy bow towards her. Without the health absorption, the Undying Abyss Wraith fell in due time. A small ball of dark and bluish light with a tint of red then shot towards the altar located in the center.

The last monster left is the Unbound Black Frost Fenrir which is more than difficult to kill. Its attack can afflict the players with frost and darkness elemental status conditions. The chains that are dangling on its neck and limbs also posed great danger. Whatever those metal bars are consisting of made no player could even scratch it.

What made it worse is that the Unbound Black Frost Fenrir that possessed no ranged attack would even use the chains as a ranged weapon. One attack from the chains even made a mage player explode immediately. This made the melee players wary as that would mean they will only take two hits to explode as well.

Despite having about 13 teams attacking the Unbound Black Frost Fenrir, they are still having a hard time but that does not mean they are not damaging the opponent. The moment all twenty teams gathered to the Unbound Black Frost Fenrirʼs altar is where the main event happened.

With all twenty teams gathering, the Unbound Black Frost Fenrir health decreased rapidly to 10% but Sirius does not want to go down without a fight. As soon as the Unbound Black Frost Fenrirʼs health dropped to 10%, he activated the last skill on his arsenal which is Ragnarok.

The surroundings suddenly became dark while the temperature in the area suddenly became frighteningly low. The players wanted to evade the attack by traveling to the other altar, but huge glaciers suddenly materialized that blocked their exits.

”What are you doing! Kill it before it releases its attacks.” One of the players shouted which made the others get back their focus.

The Unbound Black Frost Fenrirʼs body started to grow in size while the chains that were unable to get scratched by players broke as if they are cheaply made. The Unbound Black Frost Fenrir released a deafening howl which made some of the spells they are casting get cancelled.

A few seconds later, bodies of the players near the Unbound Black Frost Fenrir exploded into particles of light. The other players saw this, and they cannot even react as they could not see their fellow contestants get killed. Only certain individuals managed to actually see how fast the Unbound Black Frost Fenrir move.

With the incoming danger, Merlinʼs Child of Mana activated in response immediately. She did not think that it would activate but it seems the Unbound Black Frost Fenrir is something that she cannot defeat using normal means. Since the monster they are facing is of the darkness and ice element, fire elemental damage dealt great damage to it, but light elemental damage did not.

The players thought it was strange at first but then the master that they serve is a dark god of light and darkness elements. The spell Inferno made the Unbound Black Frost Fenrir stop moving as it chipped at its health greatly. He looked at the mage casting the spell and tried to kill Merlin, but Pendragon blocked the monster.

”Melt everything away! Caliburn!” Pendragon stated as he released an elemental wave of intense heat energy. It swept across the area and eventually killed the Unbound Black Frost Fenrir.
