Omega Summoner

Chapter 1471: The Dread Village IV

”Wrath of Life and Death!” Levin Cloud stated as he thrusted his glaive at the throat of the Dread Bone Wyrm.

Levin Cloud made sure that he pushes it with everything in his power as he actually broke the bones of the Dread Bone Wyrm. He has been attacking that same spot for a few minutes already and his persistence has finally paid off. The Dread Bone Wyrm could not believe that its tough skeletal body would be pierced.

[You have been affected by two stacks of Dread.]

[You will lose 2% of your maximum health.]

Levin Cloud might have destroyed the bone, but he was still affected by the Dread Aura that is covering the Dread Bone Wyrm. It was all worth it though as he has destroyed the core that is needed to be destroyed. The sound of something cracking and the light that was present inside the Dread Bone Wyrm suddenly dimmed.

[Your party member, Levin Cloud, has destroyed one of the cores of the Dread Village.]

[Cores that needed to be destroyed to show the main core of the Dread Village: 1/4]

[Quickly destroy the other cores before the destroyed core regenerates.]

[The destroyed cores will regenerate slower as a result of another core being destroyed in a small timeframe.]

”Nice!” Levin Cloud stated but the Dread Bone Wyrm is not yet dead despite him destroying the core inside of it.

Levin Cloud started to fight the Dread Bone Wyrm once more, but he noticed that it was no longer as tough as it was supposed to be. He made the assumption that the Dread Bone Wyrm was actually drawing power from the small core itself. He can now easily destroy the skeletal frame of the Dread Bone Wyrm with just a few attacks unlike before that needed him to use pinpoint accuracy.

”If the core is the source of their power, then Equinox would be having a difficult time.” Levin Cloud stated as he has maintained full view of the battlefield as he is connected to the Tree of Life and Death.

The Dread Dragon also swallowed the core that it guards, and it is not like the Dread Bone Wyrm that is all skeletal. The Dread Dragon has skin made of Dread Aura itself as it is a perfect being that has evolved into that. The location of the core could be seen though as its large belly is glowing in a pale eerie green light.

”This thing is almost impossible to deal with at close range.” Adrian stated as he would get a stack of Dread with just slightly touching the Dread Dragon.

[The Dread Dragon has released its Dread Dragon Breath.]

The Dread Dragon took a large mouthful of air from the outside and released a torrent of gas which is actually Dread Energy. Anything hit by that breath attack will be applied with two stacks of Dread per second that one has been afflicted by it. Wisteria immediately went in front of them and released gas from her large tree.

In her Nether Form, Wisteria releases nether mist instead of a sweet scent. The nether mist that she releases could counteract the dread energy that the Dread Dragon is releasing. The only problem is that they are at a stalemate when this happens.

The Dread Dragon is also being protected by a barrier whenever it uses its dragon breath. It also has mastery of magic unlike a normal undead dragon. It seems to have regained some of its intelligence due to it evolving into a higher species.

”If only Sirius is available then he would have been able to cut through it and destroy that guardian.” Adrian stated as Sirius cannot be summoned due to him being used as the subject of Perfect Assimilation. Sirius is locked for thirty minutes as Adrian made sure to use everything in that transformation.

Adrian cannot regret his choices now as he only needs ten minutes for Sirius to be available. The only problem is that one of the cores will regenerate in ten minutes. Adrian suddenly saw the notification that another core has been destroyed and the one he is facing is the last core.

Just as Adrian is about to make a move, a powerful shockwave erupted from the middle of the area as the large noble mansion in that area suddenly became bigger. The Dread Mansion core has started to manifest as three of the four has been destroyed. The Dread Mansion, which is the core of the Dread Village, has started to make its move.

[The Dread Village is using the skill Dread Nova.]

One notification was all it took as the whole area suddenly started to explode in dread energy. The whole area did not explode in dread energy simultaneously but spots in the village exploded every second. Each explosion actually applied five stacks of Dread into anyone that has been inflicted.

Fortunately for the four, all of them could dodge these sudden pockets of explosion but they did not expect the last blast. The last explosion of Dread Energy was actually a village wide area. They were not even able to protect themselves from it as it cannot be avoided.

[You have been blasted by Dread Nova.]

[You have received 15 stacks of Dread.]

[You have lost 15% maximum health.]

[You suddenly lost a large amount of health in a very short span of time. You have resisted being stunned because of your special body.]

[Any health that was reduced by Dread cannot be regenerated for ten minutes.]

Adrian could not believe that he got hit by a powerful attack that cannot be dodged. The worst part is that he cannot regenerate it, nor can Saena cleanse the Dread status ailment. He is now at maximum stacks of thirty Dread which means he can only regenerate up to 70% of his maximum health.

”I might not be losing stats, but the health is a different problem. We must kill the Dread Dragon as fast as we can.” Adrian stated as he suddenly saw Levin Cloud come to him.

”I am here to aid you.” Levin Cloud stated as he is still in his true form.

”Thanks! I will attack while you will restrain it with my soulbounds.” Adrian stated and Levin Cloud nodded.

Levin Cloud scattered seeds around the Dread Dragon as he ran around it. The Dread Dragon noticing that something is wrong started to take flight, but chains suddenly manifested below it which struck its soul. The chains that were controlled by Charon dragged the Dread Dragon back to the ground, but it was still having difficulty as it is a tug of war.

Dodu started to move as well as it suddenly created tentacles and slammed it towards the Dread Dragon. Wisteria copied what the other two did as she made use of vines that came out of her tree and tried to bring the Dread Dragon down as well. Kimat, Kanlaon and Saena made use of their elemental attacks as they poured it down on the enemy.

The Dread Dragon tried to resist with the best that it can, but it cannot easily brush off the assault of six powerful beasts. Adrian also started his onslaught as he summoned his spear armament. Using his mind, Adrian sent the spear armament towards the belly of the Dread Dragon as he attempted to destroy the core.

Levin Cloud told Adrian that the Dread Dragon might be absorbing more power from the core which is why it is very tenacious. Adrian used that suggestion and tried to pierce the belly of the beast, but it was much sturdier than he thought. The spear would bounce off the body of the Dread Dragon after a few seconds.

The belly of the Dread Dragon started to glow even brighter as it was starting to gather power from the core. It was starting to break free from the restraints that Adrianʼs soulbounds applied. Levin Cloud knew that it might not be perfect but the seeds he planted must be used now as he activated all of them.

The seeds that Levin Cloud planted suddenly sprouted into trees that latched onto the Dread Dragon. Each of the trees is filled with Life and Death energy with the Tree of Life and Death being the source. It is not farfetched to say that these trees are part of the Tree of Life and Death.

”Now!” Levin Cloud stated as he tossed his glaive towards the belly of the Dread Dragon.

The glaive accurately pinpointed the area of the core, but it was not enough to pierce the skin of the Dread Dragon. It might not have destroyed the skin, but it was enough to weaken it. Adrian made use of the spear armamentʼs special ability to become a thousand spears.

”Dragon Killing Spears!” Adrian stated as he brought his hand down and thousands of spears rained down on the belly of the beast. The Dread Dragon could not even defend itself as thousands of spear plunged on its belly and the light that glowed became dim.
