Chapter 870 - 871 – Grey – Part 18.

The poison and fire raged on the battlefield, making the dragons have hard time moving around.

The dragons had hard time moving around… And that was the main problem.

THEY NEED TO MOVE AROUND.

If Oron creates too much distance, he can generate his shot powered up by multiple skills, which is something that dragons knew was beyond dangerous.

However, there was another problem.

The dragons had some means of healing and they have dragons that fully specializes in support… However, Oron knew who to aim at.

He took one of the support specializing dragons, making the situation for the dragons troublesome.

If they don't focus on the defense, the fire and flames will melt their bodies.

However! If they don't focus on Oron, he will just destroy them.

At first it may seems that the things changed as soon as he ordered he gave his order to use the enchantment scrolls.

But that wasn't it.

The moment he realized that all of the dragons were trying to eliminate him first and do it as soon as possible, he began setting up traps.

Oron is known mostly for his assassination and one-shot kills.

However, everybody forgets about something.

His magic specialty, fire and poison.

However, it wasn't just those two magic elements that he specializes in.

He uses another type of classes that all began from class he had obtained all the way Jih city when the Purple Hyena guild was originally founded.

A class book he had received from the old unliving demonoid.

[Cursed Poison User]

A class that uses both poison and curses.

This class made Oron take on another path, the power of curses.

Curse, fire and poison.

He mostly invested in two type of classes that are related to these elements and curse.

The first is obviously enchantment to make his one shot far more deadly.

And his second investment was this.

Damage over time.

A means of dealing with the enemy who is close to dying.

The dragons so far were dealing with the poison, fire and Oron, causing their focus to be split between these things.

However, Oron already set up the next trap, as the black text was heading straight towards dragons.

[Damned Curse Heretic]

[Class Rarity: Unique]

[Skill]

[Heretic Pain]

[Set up a trap circle that upon manual activation will deal cursed type damage to all targets in the area. The damage calculation is based on the total damage inflicted to the hostile targets within the created trap zone. The total damage is distributed evenly.]

"[Activate]." – Oron activated his cursed trap, causing all of the dragons that were in the middle of the formation to get struck by the trap, dealing a solid amount of damage that caught every dragon off guard.

The only one that weren't affected were the remaining support dragon and the trio of the cyborg dragons who were ahead.

"Tch!" – however, despise having his comrade struck by the curse, Gurion the cyborg dragon rushed through the flames and poison filled area, aiming to stop Oron from doing whatever he was planning, even when he meant he would get set on fire and poisoned.

His two daughters also decided to join in with short delay… But as they did, two figures emerged from the shadows.

However, the cyborg dragon twins weren't caught off guard completely as they instantly used their enchanted mechanized claws to strike the two foes that tried to ambush them.

But that was the mistake.

[Wicked Poison Bearer]

[Class Rarity: Unique]

[Plague Clone]

[Create a clone minion that looks just like user and upon taking enough damage, the clone explodes, unleashing a powerful blast of explosion that deals heavy poison type damage and inflict powerful {Poison} status to the struck enemies.]

The twins struck the dummy clones which ended up exploding, dealing damage and inflicting them with yet another {Poison} status.

And they weren't the only ones in trouble, as at the same time, Oron fired his attack, but it wasn't with crossbow, but instead magic.

"YOU THINK THIS CAN SCARE ME!?" – shouted the dragon as something akin to black ink was fired at him, forcing the dragon to deploy his barrier.

"?!" – however, the black substance just passed through his barrier and made the direct contact with the dragon.

[Devil Devouring Curse]

[Unleash a cured blast that passed through any defenses and solid object until it makes any contact with target.]

[Upon contact, inflict the target with {Devouring Demon Curse} status effect that makes the target suffer increased penalty from any of the negative status effects as well as damages over time.]

"?"

(Nothing happened?) – thought confused dragon… Who in the very next moment could feel the change happening all at once.

The {Poison} and {Burn} status effect that had been infected onto his body started going berserk.

[Body Breaking Curse]

[Acid Disease]

[Melting Parasite Fire]

And it wasn't over, as Oron instantly started unleashing more debuffs and damage over time effects… And they hit the dragon HARD!

The negative effects and the damage overtime had straight up devoured the dragon's body instantly.

Dragon's whole body became way heavier and it was now in the constant state of pain, which made the dragon have way harder time doing anything.

The dragon could sense the feeling of the dread coming his way… However-

Oron ran past the dragon, even when he is being swallowed by the negative effects, Oron didn't aimed at him.

The two twins that got struck by the poison didn't knew what was going on, expect for the fact that Oron was heading straight towards the twins.

The twins made two scythe like blades pop up from the bottom of their forearms, aiming to slash Oron.

However, he wasn't screwing around as he quickly fired one bolt at one of the twins, which ended up unleashing an explosion that pushed back the targeted twin, before then dodging the second twin scythe attack and fallowing up with firing another bolt that struck the second twin, unleashed explosion that knocked her back.

Now the twins were in danger… But again, he ignored them.

He just pushed them aside.

His aim?

The dragons behind them.

"?!" – the dragons obviously noticed Oron running straight to them as they were getting healed up.

The dragons unleashed their attacks, but Oron's defenses and agility was too much for them, allowing him to easily survive claw swipes, magic bombardment and even breath attacks.

Not only that, the trio of the cyborg dragons that acted as the tanks of the group were left behind.

Meaning one thing.

Oron could go on the rampage.

Each shot he had fired as well as each spell he had unleashed ended up dealing devastating amounts of damage to the dragons who couldn't properly handle the damage.

The parts of their bodies were getting straight up ripped apart by each attack… However, they weren't exactly used to damage the dragons per say.

Or to more exactly, "move" them bit away and open up a path.

"?!" – the support specializing dragon instantly realized what was going on. Oron was making his way towards them.

The support dragon deployed their barrier, but Oron wasn't going to let this opportunity slit as he fired skill enchanted bolt, which pierced right through the barrier and then right through the support dragon's head… Which was then fallowed up with the dragon's body falling on the ground dead.

"!"

"Shit!" – said simulations the trio the cyborg dragons.

The trap Oron has set up had worked.

And now?

The dragons were the ones who were in real trouble.

Meanwhile, both Tail and LM were putting a lot of pressure on the berserker dragon.

The berserk managed to stop the two players from reaching the injured dragon… However, he was now in a rough shape.

His natural high defense was allowing him to handle many attacks.

But the duo found out something he can't handle.

Poison.

The dragon was doing all he could to protect his injured sister, but in turn, he ended up being afflicted with {Poison} type status over and over again.

And that wore off his body, making the dragon who instantly went on the rampage and shown off his strength, to now being a victim.

"!" – however, just as the two players were about to unleash once again their barrage of the attacks, the hail of magic projectiles came, forcing the two players to back away.

"I'm here." – said Sirio as she finished off LM's monsters and joined up the fight once again.

"…Go back and recover." – said Karol as he realized his sister still haven't used any healing spells to recover herself.

"Fuck off. You are not doing so hot either." – said Sirio.

"If you don't focus on yourself, you will die like a fool."

(I say that… But things are not looking so good.) – thought nervous Sirio.

(I can sense the poison ravaging his body… Neither of us are in the good shape.)

(But if one of us focus on protecting the other, then the protector will die in no time and it will turn into 2 vs 1.)

(It annoys me… But we have no choice but to fight these two bastards in our current state!)
