YM778.TV Chapter 97 - Engraved(2)
"Ugly…" Desmond scoffed, seeing that the Dragon\'s appearance was fat and with a face that was not handsome according to him. For Desmond, a dragon with two horns that emitted fire and was black was a dragon that was cool and handsome.
Luckily the Dragon ignored Desmond\'s words and kept on turning around, waiting for the next Dragon to finish its task.
"It can\'t be denied, if you look at the shape and color of the dragon, this dragon can be categorized as an earth dragon." Dark brown in color, with a long mouth and light brown pupils, this Dragon looks like an earth dragon to Desmond.No matter what, the worst Dragon, according to Desmond, is an earth dragon
At the same time, Desmond shifted his gaze to the last Dragon, where the result would probably be the same as the first Dragon.
* slurp *
And his guess was right; Desmond saw that the Dragon sucked up all the clots of blood and became a dragon that only had scales and horns. After the Dragon changed shape, the Dragon headed towards the circle of the center of the pentagram.
This time the last Dragon didn\'t spin around like its other comrades, but instead, it was advancing rapidly and hit the Dragon from the east.
* boom *
Desmond widened his eyes; he did not expect that what happened next would be like this. " Is this really the next step? " Desmond became hesitant with the system when he saw the two dragons biting each other.
* clank *
Surprisingly the two dragons fought without letting out their roar, only sounding friction between the dragon scales and horns.
"Maybe because their main materials are the same?" Desmond pondered. He glanced at the other dragons swirling in harmony as if they had not seen each other\'s happenings.
* clash *
Desmond saw that the two dragons\' battle had reached its final stage. One of the dragons managed to bite the other Dragon, it\'s normal, but the next scene shocked Desmond.
The Dragon that became the winner then swallowed the body of the defeated Dragon at once. Then the Dragon fell silent as if he was digesting the food he was eating.
"Holy sh * t, even in my imagination, this is beyond reason. Is this a dragon or a snake?" Right after Desmond said that, the Dragon moved again, making Desmond startled and took a step back.
After the Dragon moved again, the other dragons that had been spinning harmonies also suddenly stopped. They looked at each other.
"Will they do the same?" Desmond imagined where the three dragons were fighting each other, leaving the strongest behind. Desmond added, "If it\'s true, isn\'t this like a battle royal? Hehe." Desmond grinned, battle royals were very famous in their old world.
Apart from reading novels, Desmond\'s second hobby is playing games. Almost all the games he likes turn into battle royals.
But what happened next was not what Desmond expected. The three dragons seemed to have coordinated; they advanced and became one.
After they became one, a giant rock-sized blood clot formed and floated in the air. The clot was the result of a combination of the three dragons staring at each other.
Desmond, who was outside the pentagram circle, took a step back, further away from the pentagram. His memory about the big ball is very thick; he means the big ball is the nuclear explosion in his old world.
"Don\'t explode…" This time Desmond was already at the exit of the room; he was also getting ready to activate his swordsman skill if this blob really exploded.
As time passed, the lump seemed to get bigger and bigger so that it almost filled the entire room, Desmond who was ready to run, suddenly fell silent when a transparent screen and notification from the system sounded in his mind.
[System Conclusion: Host, please flow your energy now to complete the first stage of the process. The host has to flow itself as this requires the host\'s awareness as its main ingredient.]
Got it, thought Desmond. This time his sense of fear has been replaced by courage. Even though he was scared to death, Desmond still walked forward and did as the system told him.
But secretly, Desmond has also activated his body enchantment skill if something happens to the ball in front of him.
As Desmond circulated his energy, his thoughts seemed to have entered a dark, empty room. In that room, Desmond also felt the presence of the dragons faintly.
He also closed his eyes because maintaining the imagination of the empty space requires high concentration.
* roar *
Within the empty space, a dragon roar could be heard. Desmond, who controlled his consciousness, suddenly felt his body shivered, and cold sweat burst out. This dragon roar was different from before, if the previous roar was warm and cozy, while this roar brought the impression of domination and anger.
* roar ** roar ** roar *
This time Desmond heard three different roars. Each roar made the empty space tremble and also made his consciousness depressed.
If it weren\'t for Desmond\'s strong will, maybe his current body would have already fainted. Every roar gave the pressure equivalent of a 3rd class wizard staring directly at him without holding back his aura.
As time passed, Desmond, who was still focusing his consciousness in the empty space, no longer heard the dragon roar; he let out a sigh of relief.
* blast *
But just at that moment, there was a sound like an explosion falling into the water. Desmond, who was no longer strong because of the previous roar, pulled his consciousness.
He saw that the blood clot in front of him had cracks; each crack seemed to accelerate the process of another crack.
* crack * * crack *
Desmond, who wanted to back away from the blood clot, stopped his steps when a system sound rang in his mind.
[System Conclusion: The host is expected to keep flowing energy because it has reached the final stage.]
The final stage of your eyes! Thought Desmond. This is the second time the system has said the last step, Desmond became hesitant, but he tried to trust the system once again.
* crash *
At that moment, the blood clot was no longer a blood clot. The lump broke and let out a powerful gust of wind.
Desmond, who was closest to the blood clot, was also blown away until his body hit the wall of the ritual room
* thump *
Apart from blasting a gust of wind, the blood clot\'s remnants also flew towards Desmond at high speed.
* swoosh *
"Fuck! Is this egg or blood? How can it take out the fragments like this! " Desmond cursed while chanting the elemental spell control.
* stab * * stab *
This time, Desmond was forced to choose the ground as the element he controlled; only the ground was strong enough to withstand other hard objects\' impact.
* stab * * stab *
The earth wall in front of Desmond seemed to have been stabbed several times; after several seconds of waiting, the sound of wind seems to stop also the shards of the blood clot no longer penetrated the earth wall.
Desmond poked his head to look into another side of the wall.
* swoosh *
Right at that moment, a fragment passed through him. The blood fragment cut off a strand of Desmond\'s right hair.
Only after his hair was cut was Desmond stunned. He immediately returned to his position, waiting a few more seconds.
…
* thump *
A sound as if a heavy object had fallen from a height was heard. Desmond, who was taking cover, panicked." Will there be an earthquake? " this thought crossed his mind.
* thump * * thump *
But every vibration is like the footsteps of a being; this makes the entire ritual room vibrate.
"Is it possible?"
The tremor Desmond felt came from his front, the place where the blood clot was. Each vibration seemed to be becoming violent, and each vibration also made his heart beat faster.
But the shaking stopped right in front of the earth wall. Desmond, who was taking cover, had been getting ready to run from the creature in front of him.
Desmond\'s eyes were no longer focus on the wall in front of him but instead on the exit of the room.
* split *
The moment he sensed that the wall beside him had lost its effect, Desmond shouted in his mind, NOW!
* Swoosh *
Desmond\'s body rushed towards the exit, this time because he was on the underground, only a little wind could enter, making Desmond\'s speed no longer blocked like before.
The door to the exit of the room drew closer and closer to his sight, and the moment his body passed through the door, Desmond shouted, "I\'M ALIVE!"
Earlier during the first tremor, Desmond had already felt an unpleasant feeling. He continued to argue that this was just an earthquake.
But his courage was lost when the shaking sound seemed to approach him and stopped right in front of his wall. Desmond immediately activated the third body enchantment in his hand in case if there was an object blocking his way out.
…
After exiting the room, Desmond came to the hallway leading to the exit. He stopped in the middle of the hallway to brave himself up.
"Relax ... this is already far away ... I\'m not a coward, that was just an act of every human being takes to survive if they get cornered unconsciously ..." Desmond tried to calm himself. After that, he turned around to look at the "creature" that had frightened him.
