BXBX NOVEL Chapter 550 Hunting More Dragons
Their body size wasn\'t "little" at all! Even though they were considered small in comparison to their brethren, these flightless, red scaled dragons were over three meters tall each, easily being taller than any of us on our base forms.
And above all, they were also very good at utilizing the element of flames. By concentrating in large groups while calling for the tankier blue dragons to protect them, they launched a barrage of fireballs into the celling, which started falling like a deadly, blazing rain above our ranks.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
And the worst was that non-spiritual flames burned through my terrain, weakening my buffs and self-regeneration! Ugh, we have to take them down asap!
Thankfully, my barrier still shielded me from the flames, and Mark was standing in the frontlines absorbing them as well. This area in specific was covered on lava and flames, and was really hot.
Not a good place for a Dryad at all!
"Ugh, you damn blue scaled lizards!" Mark roared angrily, his fists hitting the four Lesser Blue Dragons he was fighting. Unlike the red dragons, they were bigger, around five meters each.
They were also flightless, but their scales were almost metallic, and their claws very sharp, making them amazingly resilient and at the same time, agile and dexterous. We couldn\'t take this last hunt any easier.
"Mark, stay put! [Shadow Cursed Chains]! [Death Spikes]!"
CLAASH! CLAASH! CLAASH!
"[Ice Rapier Arts]: [One Hundred Frost Strikes]!"
CRASH! CRASH! CRASH! CRASH!
Rita and Nieve were giving Mark some support from the sides. Rita conjuring darkness and shadow spikes and chains, to stop the blue dragons from advancing, while Nieve\'s ice magic and her ice rapier techniques pierced through their high defenses quite easily.
"Don\'t worry everyone, keep fighting! I\'ll handle things here!" I said, making it so they wouldn\'t be distracted trying to protect me.
Of course, it wasn\'t as if I was sitting here just looking, my mere presence near them granted several buffs from all my Skills, especially the new ones. And as I kept constantly growing new Terrain of the [Spirit Forest Tiles], our HP and MP Regeneration kept itself at an all-time higher, all coupled with insane stat buffs.
Usually, Players would normally attack a single of these giant dragons in a party of a minimum of five, they were tough, powerful, and agile. However, thanks to all my tremendous amounts of buffs, it was possible for us to handle dozens at a time.
Ding!
[The Intense Flames of the Dragons are burning through your Tiles and taking over them!]
[The [Spiritual Forest Tile] has been burned, becoming a [Burned Coal Tile]!]
[The [Spiritual Forest Tile] has been burned, becoming a [Burned Coal Tile]!]

[…]
"Ugh, dammit! I won\'t lose!" I said angrily, stepping forward as I raised my weapon, each of my steps constantly spread my Spiritual Forest Tile, while the flames constantly burned them, only for them to regrow anew.
It was a constant battle between the dragon\'s flame terrain and my own spiritual forest terrain. Their terrain gave them stats and bonus damage with fire element, of course, so it the red dragons were constantly trying to convert mine into theirs.
"ROOARR!"
"SHAAAH!"
"GRYAAR!"
A group of five Red Dragons appeared behind me, attacking my Spiritual Sacred Sanctuary with blazing claws and powerful bites and dragon breath attacks, several cracks spreading over my barrier.
Normally, I should be afraid of the element of fire, it is the one I am the weakest after all! but with my barrier\'s special effect of draining HP and MP from the damage it takes, I could regenerate even as my HP went down due to the intense flames.
And of course, fight!
CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
My hammer-shaped weapon hit the heads of all the Red Dragons, stunning them on the spot thanks to my Spiritual Farming Tool Skill, and even paralyzing them.
Ding!
[You have Stunned a Target!]
[You have Paralyzed a Target!]
[You have Stunned a Target!]
[You have Stunned a Target!]
[You have Paralyzed a Target!]
Paralysis was rarer, but two out of five of them were paralyzed, while everyone else was stunned for a few, tiny seconds before gasping back to reality. This was one of the most amazing powers, though it had a very lowered chance against Boss monsters. The Viper Drake Queen only got stunned like twice at most.
"GRRRHHH…?!"
"GRYYAR?!"
"GAAAAH…!"
The five Red Dragons instantly realized I wasn\'t someone so easy to mess around with. Their faces filled with fear quickly knew the pain of being smacked by a gigantic, dirt hammer made out of Land Spirits merging into it.
"[Land Hammer Smack]!"
BAAAM!
BAAAAAMM!!
BAAAAAMMM!!!
With several hits over their heads, their instantly lost large quantities of HP and died one after the other, dropping items and gold, and leaving no bodies behind other than their particles of light dissipating into the thin air.
"Phew!" I sighed in relief, cleaning the sweat over my forehead. This area of the Dragon Nest was so hot it was making me, someone that always walks half-naked, feel the heat too much.
"Hey! Why are you not using my magic a bit? Feels like you\'re just ignoring me!" The Great Spirit appeared at my said, angrily.
"I\'ve not been using you because you grow exhausted after a while." I said. "I\'ll only call for your magic when I really need to."
"Ehh? Not fair! I also want to fight a bit! Come on! Do some of my magic!" She started complaining behind me. "I can still drain your own MP and Spiritual Energy, so I won\'t grow as tired as other times…"
"Ugh, fine!" I sighed, quickly stepping forward and landing in the middle of the battlefield where Mark and my friends were battle. "Let\'s do this then! [Grand Harvest]!"
