Hero of Darkness Chapter 723 The Last Kill

Chapter 723 The Last Kill

The group traveled to the southern end of the exalted n.o.ble's territory, exactly on the opposite side of where they started the first hunt.

Count Horik had a perplexed expression and his heart was racing with antic.i.p.ation. He looked at Raiden, Scorpion and Legolas and spoke in a hoa.r.s.e tone.

"I think all of you should fight this one together. It's the strongest of them all." he iterated in a jittery voice.

"Why? Does it have some unique ability?" asked Legolas with a concerned gaze.

"We don't even know what it looks like. But our armies couldn't even come 10 kilometers close to its den let alone do reconnaissance.

They were destroyed before they could even send a distress signal. Even the reinforcements barely managed to bring back the survivors." he revealed with a helpless gaze.

Soon, count Horik started recounting their experience in dealing with this final legendary rank monster so far.

Legolas, Raiden and Scorpion nodded in response. They were all skilled hunters in their own right. So they knew how to prepare for this situation first.

Finally, the warship stopped 40 kilometers away from the last monster's occupied territory.

"n.o.body leaves or comes closer." ordered Legolas in an authoritative tone.

Swoosh!

All of them appeared few kilometers away in the sky and formed a plan.

Legolas created 20 doppelgangers on the spot while Ronin created 10. All of them heading to encircle this region, to form a perimeter where no one could enter or interfere in any way.

Raiden aka Omega did not have the doppelganger skill so he was in charge of making the first contact with the said monster.

10 minutes later, Raiden covertly entered 20 kilometers close to the den but suddenly…

ROARRR!!

An ear-deafening roar that shattered ground, trees and made tall peaks tremble in this forested region erupted, declaring that the opponent had already noticed Omega.

Flap!

Flap!

In just a minute, a t.i.tanic 700 meter tall body of a legendary rank creature with wings appeared and landed on the ground, giving a deathly stare at Raiden as if giving the last warning.

[Master, don't interfere. It's too strong. Comparable to a 4th stage saint.] quickly spoke Omega.

Kahn then saw the creature with their shared vision.

[What the h.e.l.l is this monster? I've never seen anything like it.] spoke Kahn.

A 700 meter tall violet-colored monster with the head of a lion, having a long and imposing white mane stood 10 kilometers away from Omega. But even so, its size was simply too big for anyone to notice as soon as they were at least 300 meters high in the sky.

The monster of this caliber was probably the strongest one they had seen in Zivot Empire so far.

On its back, two ma.s.sive bat-like wings spread and flapped themselves, sending strong gales in the surrounding area.

On its head, 5 ma.s.sive red horns that were interconnected at the base, forming the shape of the crown of a king, came into sight. On the forelegs and hindlegs, red bones extended from the joints.

Like a tiger, its body was filled with white and red straps over some parts, signifying its uniqueness.

[The species in front of the subordinate Omega is called Drigger.

This is one of the strongest 12 legendary rank monster species only under G.o.dbeasts and Dragons.

This species is proficient in sound and vibration abilities. The roaring skills alone have a tremendous range and can disorient thousands of enemies in large-group combat.

The host is advised to not engage it directly.] reported and warned the system.

.

[Engage it? Even Omega is being cautious.

Also, my dimensional cut skill isn't long enough to cut its head off.

We need a different strategy.] thought Kahn.

[Master… leave this to me.

Like you said… this is my job.] spoke Omega through their link.

Kahn let out a disgruntled sigh but then spoke…

"Fine, do as you wish. But run away in case you can't win." he ordered from his location.

Raiden then fixated his gaze on the enemy monster. Compared to those he killed so far… this one looked more intelligent and sentient.

First, it let out its roar to warn an intruder in its territory.

But after sensing that Raiden was as strong as him… it only made a stand to gauge his strength.

However, it didn't attack out of nowhere either, rather… waited for the invader to make the first move.

Raiden on the other end quickly equipped Moonlight Armor and summoned a 100 meter long lightning katana.

He quickly activated Gravity Domain, reducing his enemy's agility and physical movements.

"Kaminari Surrashu!" shouted Raiden, quickly a.s.saulting the enemy with the lightning slash attack while using Quickdraw skill.

Slash!!

The ma.s.sive and decisively accurate katana quickly launched itself, to make a vertical slashing strike at the speed of light.

Clink!

BOOM!

Rumble!

However, before the terrifying katana could even come 1 kilometer proximity… a ma.s.sive burst of intangible and indomitable pressure quickly repulsed Raiden's gravity domain.

This eruption of the sound explosion was so strong that it even threw off the Kaminari Surrashu attack and destroyed it in a few seconds.

"This…" said Raiden with an anxious voice

For the first time, his new killer move was thrown off and destroyed by an opponent.

[Be careful… this one isn't even at mythical rank but its powers are too deadly.] warned Legolas in his mind.

Next, Raiden switched to Twilight Armor and quickly charged at Drigger.

"Katon Surrashu!" he launched the katana made of dragonfire.

BANG!!

However, just like before, the ma.s.sive and long katana that easily killed and roasted the Venialkarto not too long ago was expelled aside, its fire being extinguished into nothingness.

GROWL!!

Drigger growled at Raiden, taunting and hinting that the latter wasn't its match.

The sound vibrations and shockwaves it sent were already enough to break the gravity domain effortlessly.

To this provocation… Raiden then spoke in a grim voice.

"I see. It's not a battle that can be won with skills and techniques.

Rather it's the kind that's fought with…" he declared and soon, his own figure started transforming and his final words echoed in this battlefield.

"Raw Strength."
