Undying Warlord Chapter 40 All-in

Chapter 40 All-in

Not even with [Regeneration] utilized did the severe bleeding from both of his upper arms stop.
The blood flow had decreased, but that was already it.
He didn’t even notice this as his focus was on the Krendel ahead of him.
Owing to his enhanced Agility, the huge Krendel was slower than him, which allowed Dilan to prepare a new attack.
But before he could do that, he had to keep observing the huge Krendel at first.
Dilan was not yet aware of the monster’s strength, and only its high Health stat was quite obvious.
After all, the injury on its nose had begun to heal. It had almost stopped bleeding, but that was something he had already expected.
The huge Krendel was, at least, a Bronze monster and certainly above level 5.
Using his speed to his advantage, Dilan advanced.
He approached the Krendel with all his might, and easily evaded its first attack, just to take a precise look at the second slash that followed in short succession.
His physical strength might be way low than the huge Krendel’s but owing to his speed it was possible to create a situation in which the monster would injure itself!
After he evaded the first slash, Dilan moved closer to the huge monster.-.
Dilan was waiting for its second attack, and slightly moved a step in the direction of the right forearm that had already brushed past him.
The first attack of the Krendel missed him.
His position was right next to the Krendel’s right forearm, while it slashed out with its left.
The attack it initiated was precise, but Dilan thrust out with the blunt backside of the Reinforced Stone Spear with all his might.
He didn’t need to pierce through the monster’s hide and intended to avert the claw strike’s trajectory, which was exactly what happened.
A faint crack could be heard as bits of linen clung to the lower part of the spear’s shaft.
However, that was to be expected as the Krendel’s claw was averted, changing the trajectory of the attack by a few centimeters.
But these few centimeters were more than enough to injure its right lower arm severely as the razor-sharp claws cut through the dense brown fur, its skin, and the monster’s flesh.
The Krendel had been enraged about the fact that Dilan had been able to injure its nose.
Because of the small injury that was not worth mentioning, the huge monster lost its cool and made a reckless move which resulted in it ending up injuring itself severely!
Blood spurted out of the deep wound that had been accidentally created by its very own four claws.
When Dilan saw this, a faint smile appeared on his lips.
He was sure that he would be able to use the chaos of the situation, and the deep injury to his advantage!
A burst of adrenaline shot through his fully tense body.
This gave Dilan the necessary push to move rapidly.
Escaping the reach of the huge Krendel, he threw a short glance in the direction of the monster, just to grasp the opportunity.
The huge Krendel roared out in rage as its yellow teeth glinted in the little light.
Its vision turned red, and the only thing that it wanted at that moment was to kill Dilan.
Thus, the moment Dilan emerged in front of it again, it ignored the deep injury on its right forearm as it clenched its fists.
Desiring to squash him, the Krendel used all its might to smash its fist on the ground, exactly where Dilan was standing.
He was bound to be mashed into a pulp the moment the fist hit him.
However, Dilan had already disappeared from his earlier location.
All of a sudden, his Agility stat elevated as an ear-piercing noise filled the entire hallway.
The lingering remnants of electricity currents could be seen a few centimeters in front of the area where the Krendel had bashed his fist onto.
Meanwhile, Dilan had already catapulted himself towards the head of the huge Krendel, holding the Reinforced Stone Spear in his hand that was gleaming faintly.
One Unit of mana had been used up to activate the [Thunder Step] ability, increasing his Agility to a total of 6 units for five seconds.
But these five seconds were more than enough for him because Dilan knew that this was the last attack he could inflict on his opponent so easily.
Blood spurted out from his arms owing to his rapid movement, and he thrust the Reinforced Stone Spear forward.
There was a faint, almost inconspicuous gleam around the spear tip emerging from the faint trace of mana his body had absorbed during the fight.
It was less than 0.1 unit, but it was better than nothing as he gave his all in this one attack.
Using the force that resulted from his terrific high speed, Dilan pierced forward and towards the head of the huge Krendel.
Even if it were to owe an advantage in terms of strength, and defenses, Dilan knew that it was impossible for the Krendel to evade his attack.
This gave him the confidence to gather all his strength at one point as the tip of the spear reached the Krendel’s left eye.
The monster’s eyes widened in shock after perceiving the sudden appearance of a gray glint merely a centimeter away from its face.
Time seemed to slow down all of a sudden as the tip of the Reinforced Stone Spear pierced through the huge Krendel’s right eye.
Sensing the resistance of the eye, Dilan forced his way through its eye, and a delighted expression appeared on his entire face.
However, it was barely a moment later that Dilan’s expression stiffened.
Too many things occurred at the same moment.
A bright glint of craziness replaced the desperation in the huge Krendel’s eyes as it moved its head all of a sudden.
In the blink of an eye, it bashed its head forward using its terrifically high strength.
This only resulted in the Reinforced Stone Spear piercing deeper into the head of the monster, worsening the injury.
But shockingly enough, the sudden action of the Krendel was enough to break off the upper part of the spear!
The steel-hard bones of its eye socket had impacted too hard on the spear, breaking it as if it was a thin twig.
Yet, that was not everything as the huge pig-head didn’t stop in its advancement.
Continuing to roar and thrash around, it bashed its head on Dilan’s unprotected head.
Unable to evade the attack, Dilan’s head collided against the rocklike head of the Krendel, and for a moment he felt as if the world started spinning around him.
However, he was not even able to tell what was going on anymore as his sight blurred.
Trying to hold onto the remains of the Reinforced Stone Spear, he tried to look around but his body was smashed to the ground by the Krendel’s mighty headbutt.
His mind went blank, and he began to see stars in front of his eyes as his breathing grew shallow and blood started to run down his forehead.
The attack that should have killed the huge Krendel merely injured it, while Dilan ended up on the ground in front of the monster, feeling like his body was a wreck.
He was not sure where left and right were, and he felt as if his skull cracked open. To his misfortune, only for his one and only proper weapon has been broken.
Even if Dilan was excited and nearly addicted to fighting stronger opponents, the final result of this battle was truly something unexpected.
Even breathing had now become a painful task…and it looked like his life would end at any moment.
‘Is that how it ends?’ He couldn’t help but wonder for a moment, only for a faint glint of unwillingness to emerge in his eyes.
‘Fuck it, it’s only over once I’m dead!!’
