Chapter 391 391-The Final Counterattack!
With a thunderous roar echoing throughout the valley, Kingserp had transformed into a massive black python, coiled and ready, its vertical pupils gleaming coldly.
This is the special ability of a Druid player, the power to shapeshift into any animal.
Kingserp's Dark Druid class further enhanced his offensive and defensive capabilities in this transformed state.
The black python, human-like anger etched on its face, loomed over Blue Sea.
"You need to be careful," John's calm voice floated from the edge of the battlefield, tinged with a hint of teasing, "I just realized, Kingserp's name actually derives from his class feature... I wonder if you would change your name to Kingdog if you transformed into a dog?"
This simple sentence instantly ignited Kingserp's fury.
The black python let out a roar to the sky and turned to rush towards John, but Blue Sea swiftly intercepted, standing firmly in front of Kingserp.
"Don't get it wrong, your opponent is me!" Blue Sea raised his wand, his eyes shimmering with a deep blue hue.
A vast and boundless aura emanated from him, as if bringing the presence of the sea itself.
After Kingserp's transformation into the colossal black python, Blue Sea finally began to take the battle seriously.
His whole being radiated with the passion for combat.
Facing the transformed Kingserp, he exhibited not a trace of fear, but rather, exhilaration.
Truth be told, both Blue Sea and Adam were not the types to sit still.
At their core, they thrived in the heat of battle.
They had always yearned for a fiercely competitive and passionate battle, but previously they never found the right opportunity.
Often, due to the assistance of other guild members, they could only oversee battles from the sidelines.
And during the quests they completed with John, the monsters were too powerful for them to handle alone.
This had deprived Blue Sea and Adam of the chance to engage in a truly exhilarating fight like today's...
Blue Sea raised his wand, chanting a spell as mist began to envelop the air around him.
A powerful torrent of water erupted from the ground, forming a massive column that trapped Kingserp within its grasp.
Kingserp, enraged, writhed in an attempt to break free from the water column's hold, but its tenacity was too great, firmly restricting his movements.
Seizing the moment, Blue Sea rapidly cast a freezing spell, transforming the water column into a huge pillar of ice.
The ice layer, thick and dense, completely encased Kingserp.
However, he was not one to be easily subdued.
With all his might, he struggled to shatter the icy prison.
The ice pillar creaked ominously, as if it could break at any moment.
Blue Sea continued to cast spells, reinforcing the strength of the ice, as illusory waves surged around it, forming an impregnable barrier.
Inside the ice, Kingserp's struggles grew more violent, and the ice and waves began to crack under the strain.
Blue Sea, with a determined gaze, took a deep breath and clenched his teeth to maintain the output of his magical power.
But Kingserp's strength, now doubled, was not something a simple freezing spell could contain.
Finally, with a thunderous crash, the ice pillar shattered completely, and Kingserp broke free from his confinement.
Dark energy surged around Kingserp once more, his venomous secretions dripping onto the ground and instantly corroding it, creating numerous pits.
Freed from his icy prison, Kingserp was eager to launch his counterattack.
The colossal black python, roaring furiously, charged at Blue Sea, its body swirling with dark energy and venom splashing wildly.
Facing the oncoming assault, Blue Sea remained composed.
His first action was to cast a Windriding Spell on himself, swiftly gliding backward.
As a mage, maintaining distance from an opponent is crucial due to their inherent fragility.
If cornered in close combat, even the most formidable mages struggle to survive unless they've trained their physical prowess to a level akin to Saphir's.
This was Blue Sea's first encounter in battle against a Druid player, and Kingserp's array of bizarre tactics was indeed an eye-opener.
As he widened the gap between them, Blue Sea once again raised his wand.
After a brief incantation, water elements in the valley began to coalesce once more.
In front of him, they formed into a series of water arrows, shooting towards Kingserp.
The giant python was pushed back, its vertical pupils flickering with cold light.
Suddenly, Kingserp opened his mouth and spewed out a cloud of toxic fog, rapidly spreading towards Blue Sea.
Everything in the fog's path withered away.
Blue Sea's brow furrowed as he quickly summoned a water shield around him.
The toxic fog eroded the shield, but perhaps due to Blue Sea's ample magical power, he was able to continuously reinforce its strength.
For the time being, the poison fog couldn't directly harm him.
Lifting his head, Blue Sea's eyes shone with a cold light.
He pointed his wand, and a wave of water appeared out of thin air, transforming into countless water swords in the sky, piercing towards Kingserp's massive body.
Kingserp's massive body twisted and turned, seemingly trying to dodge the water swords.
But Blue Sea's skills weren't so easily evaded.
The water swords, as if guided, traced a circle in the air and heavily landed on Kingserp's back.
His black scales shattered under the force, and the giant python lurched forward, losing balance and collapsing to the ground.
Seizing the opportunity, Blue Sea began to chant a powerful spell.
Before him, the water swirled, gradually forming a massive water tornado.
The roaring tornado engulfed Kingserp, spinning him around as if he were in a washing machine, disorienting and dizzying.
Icicles formed within the whirlpool, slicing across his body, leaving trails of blood.
After what seemed an eternity, the spell finally ceased, and a dazed Kingserp heavily fell to the ground.
His serpentine body was covered in small wounds, many scales shattered or completely peeled off, revealing the raw flesh beneath.
Yet, even in such a dire state, Kingserp refused to give up.
Dark mist swirled around him as he suddenly leaped up, opening his massive jaws towards Blue Sea.
"Summon Water Dragon!" Blue Sea shouted, swinging his hands powerfully.
A gigantic water dragon materialized before him, opening its gaping maw to unleash a breath of dragon's fury.
Kingserp, with remarkable agility, dodged the dragon's breath, twisting his body mid-air to make a sharp turn and lunging again at Blue Sea.
Blue Sea stood his ground, raising his wand and silently chanting a spell.
[Frozen Barrier (unique skill): A Sea King Mage's exclusive skill, it gathers water elements from the air to form a frozen domain with a radius of 1000 yards. Enemies within this domain are slowed by 99% and suffer 500 points of frost damage per second…]
Kingserp's movements in mid-air suddenly became sluggish, with damage numbers flashing above his head.
This Frozen Barrier was different from the control skills used earlier; Kingserp tried various methods to escape but remained hopelessly trapped.
Blue Sea, relieved, could now afford to turn his attention to the other battles unfolding around him.
Meanwhile, Adam's fight was also nearing its climax.
Holding his silver-white greatsword and surrounded by a vast aura of Holy Light, Adam swept through the ranks of Karthus' skeleton army.
Each sword swing cleaved through multiple skeletal warriors, reducing them to piles of bones.
His divine unicorn, having fulfilled its duty of holding back the skeletal dragon, gave Adam the opportunity to clear the remaining skeletons.
A massive surge of Holy Light sword energy tore through the air towards the skeletal dragon, pushing it back tens of meters.
The force of this strike left Karthus in disbelief, his mouth twitching uncontrollably.
Before Karthus could maneuver the skeletal dragon back into position, Adam unleashed an even more ferocious strike.
A crescent-shaped wave of Holy Light energy sliced through the air, striking the skeletal dragon directly in the heart.
With a loud "crack," it sounded as if something had shattered.
After being struck by the sword energy, the skeletal dragon froze in place and then exploded into countless fragments, vanishing into thin air.
Karthus's face turned deathly pale as he spewed a mouthful of fresh blood.
The death of a summoned creature was almost equivalent to direct damage to a Necromancer himself.
Yet Karthus did not concede defeat.
The tattoos on his body flickered again with light, and he raised his skull-headed wand, cursing loudly.
"Damn you, how dare you destroy my skeletal dragon! You will pay dearly for this!"
As the wand in Karthus's hand grew increasingly luminous, an immensely dark and chaotic aura descended upon the Leeward Valley.
Above Karthus's head, the original portal shattered.
However, it didn't dissipate; instead, the fragments eerily hovered in mid-air, seemingly awaiting the arrival of some ominous entity.
Adam abruptly looked up, his eyes sparkling with unparalleled gravity.
As a Holy Light player, he was acutely sensitive to dark attributes and immediately sensed the abnormality of this aura!
