Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

Chapter 375 - Getting Severely Injured!



This time the explosion was much worse than the previous ones. The explosion created a mightier wave that hit everyone again, making all shift places midair, creating more distance from each other.

And most of the ten monsters were hit closely by this shockwave, taking the most damage here.

And this wasn't the end of it; it was just the beginning.

"Rumble!"

"Rumble!"

"Rumble!"

.

.

"Rumble!"

Explosions kept raging one after another, while hitting everyone and scattering them everywhere. Arthur was encouraged to do that when the heavy gigantic cart was separated from its dragging monsters in the first explosions; heading faster than everyone towards a distant direction.

This created enough and secured space between it and all the monsters. Besides, he aimed his arrows towards the rear of those monsters; making them take the full throttle of his arrows without endangering the cart and its precious cargo.

As these explosions hit the monsters from this close, they seemed heavily injured, and some even fell silently towards the ground; not moving even a wing!

"Good, now I have to…" he turned to glance at the cart heading far away, while his body was moving slower now. He was about to stabilize himself when he spotted the cart. "Sh*t!!!" he cursed out loud when he noticed no one came out of the cart, or even tried to stabilize it!

The cart fell like gigantic rock towards the ground; gaining momentum and high speed. If this continued, then the cart would definitely hit the ground and explode into tiny pieces, leaving none alive!

"Damn! I need to interfere," he didn't wait for all the effects of the blasts to subside before working his wings hard. His giant body was a liability for him right now; creating a resisting force that prevented him from getting near the cart easily.

"Screw it," he canceled his transformation, while letting his body fall freely towards the ground. Unlike his strong dragon body; his human body was fragile; played in the wind like a broken kite!

Yet he endured! All the pain and injuries he had didn't prevent him from eyeing his target and heading straight to it! Just as the wind started to grow calmer as he neared the ground, he turned into a dragon; using his wings with all their might to catch up with that cart.

"Let it work, please," he prayed while the distance of the two got so near from the ground. He had only one chance to react, and he just hoped he would be able to gain this slim window.

One mile away from the ground.

Five hundred meters away from the ground.

One hundred meters away from the ground.

Twenty meters away from the ground.

"Go in, damn it!" he finally managed to stretch out his claw and barely touch one of the wracked pieces of the cart's surface. The next moment, the cart was gone and he was alone facing the ground with all his indomitable momentum and short distance.

"Grrr…" he gritted his teeth while fanning out his wings, trying to reduce the impact of the fall.

"A port…" he was midway of his words, asking his system to summon a portal for him to fall into; yet he was too late!

"Boom!"

The explosive sound he had from the fall was so loud for everyone still conscious and alive to hear. At the last second he sprayed his fire trying to help his aching wings to reduce the impact of his descent; a late move from him.

When the dust settled, the ground showed a long deep groove ending up with his giant body. His body was filled with wounds, deep and shallow, plus many bruises.

And his fire was dancing around his body, turning him into a living torch!

His breaths were irregular, and he couldn't even move a muscle from his position.

The impact of his rough landing made him feel like every single bone in his dragon body being smashed. He wasn't perfectly fine when he took this massive hit; he already was injured.

His enemies weren't anyway better than him; yet two of those elite monsters endured the pain and moved to others. Their comrades were either killed or subconscious.

As for the other weak Trifle clan monsters; most were killed. The remaining were heavily injured or subconscious as well.

However they managed to bring five monsters while heading towards Arthur.

"I have to give it to you, dragonair boy," one of them said in obvious difficulty; yet his mocking tone was still there; untouched!

"Boy, hand over what you took and we will make you leave this world in peace," the other one spoke, in a harsh tone that held many enmity.

This young weak dragonair had caused them all this trouble! For him this was an insult that couldn't be washed away by just death!

Arthur was really exhausted and so weak, even raising his head at this moment took much effort and caused severe pain.

He glanced at those seven monsters. They were all heavily wounded!

'Summon them for me,' and Arthur was too weak to even move his lips; just give the system a thought and the system didn't delay to comply.

The next moment the thousand ancient monsters appeared there. Their sudden appearance startled the seven monsters, yet they seemed to be not too worried of them.

"You still have some strength to play? Admirable! I'm pretty sure your elders will be proud when hearing about your deeds, and much happier to hear about your death," the funny one of the two monsters said before laughing, "but they will be terribly in shame when everyone knows that you fell under our hands; not theirs, hahaha!"

He seemed not fazed by all these monsters, and Arthur knew his monsters weren't enough to handle these two alone.

If they had to face the Trifle clan monsters, even a grand army of tens of thousands, he wouldn't be worried at all.

Yet these two… he knew how strong they were!

'Ding! Just hang on there for five more minutes,' yet his system stopped him from moving.

'Sigh, I just started using them,' he shook his head in regret, 'and now I will lose them all!'

'Ding! Don't worry, I have a trick to use.'

Arthur didn't know what his system was talking about; yet he trusted it. He stayed there, feigning his extreme weak state while his army of monsters surrounded him, shielding his body from those seven monsters.

'I can feel strength getting back into me,' he muttered to himself while feeling his body healing itself faster than ever. 'If not for my fire,' he inwardly sighed, as this short and intense battle gave him more insights at what he lacked.

He lacked good defense! He always mocked defense, yet now he tasted how it was like to be smashed and being on the edge of death.

'Ding! You have your strong dragonair body!' the system said, in a teasing tone.

'This... can't you see how my body turned up to?' Arthur inwardly sighed while closing his eyes against the fresh and pained memory of his fall!

'If not for that last fire breath of mine, I would have been unconscious by now!'

'Ding! That was... a timely stroke of luck.'

'I agree,' he didn't use that fire breath on purpose of healing himself, he wanted to propel his body up, decreasing the impact of his fall.

'Sigh, I also need a teleporting ability. The one Amanda gave me won't be of much use to me.'

He thought amidst the fight to move away using his new gloves, yet he couldn't activate them in time. He also couldn't use them in the fight back there.

If he had a gear that would make him teleport directly to anywhere he wished, even if it had a short range, the outcome of this battle would have been much different!

'Ding! You are still young and learning. Plus such stuff is considered priceless!'

'I just hope to have my luck again and gain something like that,' he thought before adding, 'don't you have any ability like that?'

'Ding! Sorry, this kind of ability is limited to a higher stage than yours.'

Despite the disappointing tone of the system, Arthur was thrilled. 'Really? That's great! I would love to have it unlocked one day.'

The system seemed surprised by Arthur's reaction. 'Ding! But this day will come far in the future.'

'No problem for me, at least I have a solution for this problem even if it is a couple of years later.'

'…'
