Chapter 1320 Against The Third Wave Of Volcanic Monsters: A Chaos Dragon Fragment Appears!
-----
In front of Drake, new notifications surged as he finished massacring over thirty Rank 9 Peak Stage Monsters with ease by merely swinging his two weapons together.
Ding!
[The Second Wave of Volcanic Monsters has been completely defeated in less than 3 Minutes!]
[You earned +50.000.000 Divine Power as a Reward.]
[You earned [Crystalized Essence of Primordial Fire (S Grade)] x3 as a Reward.]
[You earned [Divine Infernal Flame Orichalcum Ingot (S Grade)] x3 as a Reward.]
[You earned [Divine Volcanic Infernal Pearl (S Grade)] x3 as a Reward.]
Aside from the previous rewards, Drake acquired three beautiful red pearls, filled with Fire Attribute Divine Power, these materials seemed like top-notch materials to make some new weapon using them, a fire-related weapon at that.
"The Second Wave's done… So the third and last one's finally here. Nice, we've barely taken five minutes!" Drake smiled defiantly, ready for any challenge.
Ding!
[The Third Wave of Volcanic Monsters is quickly beginning to emerge!]
[The [Aura of the Volcanic King] has developed completely upon his wake, all Monsters Stats have increased by +300%, their HP and MP Self-Regeneration Speed has been enhanced by +200%, and their Magic and Physical Attack Power has been boosted by a further +210%!]
[The [Aura of the Volcanic King]'s [Deadly Blazing Domain] has grown even stronger, all non-fire attribute beings that step in will receive constant damage to their Health, and their HP and MP Regeneration Speed will be decreased by -80%!]
[The [Volcanic King] has fully awakened and is beginning to emerge from the Volcanic Lands!]
The Venerable glanced at the scene in almost utter disbelief as he saw Drake and his powerful companions defeat every wave with ease, their coordination and power was simply incredible.
"Impressive… But can you handle what's coming in the Third Wave though?!" He laughed.
RUMBLE!
The Lava Pool started to shake furiously, an enormous shadow slowly started to emerge from within, its two gigantic arms came out first, covered on black and red scales, the two gigantic claws pierced through the volcanic rocks, dragging the rest of the gigantic beasts' body out!
CRAAAASH! CRAAAASH!
SPLAAAAAASSSHH…!
Its enormous figure quickly surprised Drake and everyone. Although they were ready for anything, they never expected such a powerful being to come in front of them right away!
"W-Wait a second… Already?!" Miranda was shocked.
"So this presence I felt before that seemed so strangely familiar… It was her." Said Benladann.
"H-How come this bastard sealed this thing in here and made it a Boss of a Trial? Is this something all you damn Venerables love to do?!" Asked Yuki in anger, recalling the Frost Queen's Inheritance Trial.
"ROOOOOAAAARRRRR!"
The Volcanic King had finally woken up from his slumber. And it roared furiously, showcasing its gigantic, scaled body. Of course, it was also draconic in appearance. A wingless, enormous dragon resembling a massive fire salamander surged from within the depths of this underground volcano.
Covered on black flames and dripping lava, its six red eyes opened, glancing around its surroundings with fury after having been woken up from its slumber for so long… It emanated the power of both Divine Flames and Chaos!
"Hahaha… HAHAHAHA! Indeed! Are you surprised?! The Final Boss of my Trial is nobody else than the Fragment of the Chaos Dragon that tormented this world in the past!" The Venerable of Flames laughed. "Nobody has ever been able to reach this far before, you're the first ones in this part of the Inheritance! I don't know if I should pity you or not for being forced to fight the hardest of the Four Bosses in the Four Trials."
"So we just happened to stumble into this one?" Laughed Drake. "I guess you could say this is Fate working on mysterious ways… But fine, it was always our task to defeat these anyways, so you've made our task much easier by bringing her right in front of us, Venerable of Flames."
"Huh?! You're not scared?!" The Venerable was left perplexed.
"Scared?! Me?" Laughed Drake. "We've already fought and defeated two of these. This is just perfect." Drake smiled.
At the same time, hundreds of Lesser Dragon Monsters, all fire-breathing variants, from wingless and bulky ones to fast-flying wyverns emerged from within the underground Volcano.
All monsters were Rank 10 Initial Stage, and the Chaos Dragon, much like the previous ones they've fought before, was Rank 10 Peak Stage… What Drake had realized is that each variant of the Chaos Dragon's fragments was different.
They adapted to their surroundings and changed shapes depending on them. The one that the Frost Queen sealed was sleek and powerful, and held an armored form as well, this one grew to resist the cold of Jotunheim.
The one that Greenwood had was serpentine, and could float in midair, a flying variant that he redesigned and merged with nanobots to transform into a half-dragon and half-mech chaotic divine dragon.
And although it wasn't a Fragment of the original Chaos Dragon but was pretty much a new Chaos Dragon the Deep One created, Ran's body was fully adapted to the sea while holding chaotic magic powers.
And this one seems to have been able to absorb the volcanic powers and flames of this Underground Volcano, becoming a gigantic, over 200-meter big salamander-like Chaos Dragon!
"ROOOOOOAAAARRRRRR! SHAAAAAHH!!!" The Fire Chaos Dragon instantly jumped off the Lava Pool, while opening its gigantic jaws and unleashing Chaotic Black Flames everywhere!
CRAAAASH!
FLUOOOOOOOSH!
"Step back!" Drake said. "Handle the Dragon Monsters coming up!" He commanded his troops.
"On it, boss!" Tisha smiled, as she led the party of allies.
Groups of Hellfire Wyverns, Volcanic Draconic Salamanders, and Blazing Turtle Dragons constantly came rushing in. These monsters weren't real descendants of Divine Dragons, but monsters known as "lesser dragons", originally born from Dungeons.
"RAAAAARRRRR!" The Fire Chaos Dragon didn't even let them begin, jumping towards the group of Drake's allies with its gigantic claws!
FLAAAASH!
CRAAAAAAASSSH!
However, instead of impacting Drake's allies, the Dragon King himself stopped him with his own claws, intercepting its deadly blow.
"Oi, I'm the one you'll be fighting." Drake smiled, as his fists landed over the Chaos Dragon's stomach like countless freezing meteors!
BAAAM! BAAAM! BAAAM! BAAAAM! BAAAAAMMM…!
