Chapter [386] Endure For As Long As You Can!

Alan Peccator POV]

I ran through the forest, trying to escape the horde of Jiangs.h.i.+ behind me.

[The Supreme Dragon of Suleras urges you to escape the forest.]

Suleras said.

'I know!'

I screamed in my head. I could handle these Jiangs.h.i.+ but the problem was I was not confident enough to take them on without sustaining even a single injury.

Every Jiangs.h.i.+ we're is a formidable martial artist.

[Shadow infection rate:4%]

And to make matters worsethis thing increased again.

This is increasing even though I haven't been touched at alld.a.m.n it.

[Supreme Dragon of frost lanesha urges you to pay attention to your surroundings.]

I moved my head to dodge a metal arrow. It cut a few strands of my hair but fortunately, I was able to avoid an injury.

"d.a.m.n it"

I cursed.

I ran further ahead, without caring for the trees. I made the mana around me denser so I would breathe through.

[Heavenly Sky Spear]

[Heavenly thrust!]

Thankfully, the spear proved effective against Jiangs.h.i.+.

[Supreme Dragon of Lanesha urges you to pay attention to your surroundings! Think of another way besides running!]

[Shadow Infection rate 5%.]

OK, calm down. I need to listen to Lanesha and Suleras!

[Draconic Transformation is being activated.]

I transformed into a Frost draconian and flew high up, I destroyed the trees and soared high into the skies.

But things didn't go according to plan.

Thousands of aura slashes came at me, I conjured up a s.h.i.+eld of Ice to protect myself.

[Frost s.h.i.+eld has been activated.]

However, there were just too many. The aura slashes bombarded the Frost s.h.i.+eld and Slowly by slowly cracks were formed.

'Hmmm.'

As I saw the s.h.i.+eld breaking, I prepared to cast a few glaciers and rain a frozen h.e.l.l upon the Jiangs.h.i.+ but

Something coiled around my foot.

As I looked down to see what it wasI found it out to be a vine.

'Eh?'

Before I could process anything, I was dragged towards the forest.

[Supreme Dragon of chaos Suleras says he told you to pay attention!]

"Could you maybe shut up?!"

I used the skill [Chaotic Vigor] possessed by my armor and fired a Chaos blast downwards. Towards the source of the vine.

A large explosion lit up the dark world.

But I was not done.

Another.

Another.

Another!

I fired multiple chaos blasts till the entire forest beneath was decimated! A large crater lay beneath me.

I descended into the crater when I saw multiple other vines reaching for me.

When I descended, they retreated away and the jiangs.h.i.+ appeared once again.

'So they attack only if I am away from the forest.'

I thought. At first, I was wondering why the infection rate was increasing despite my not having come into contact with Jiangs.h.i.+

Only now did I realize it was because the entire forest was a shadow being

The infection rate was increasing because of that.

[Supreme Dragon of Frost Lanesha warns you to be careful.]

"I know."

I unleashed all of the Ice mana I had into the surroundings.

[GLACIER has been activated.]

It would be too much to use Glacial collapse hereso this is better.

Multiple glaciers fell from the sky and formed a circle around me. Acting like a kind of wall.

I controlled the ice mana in the surroundings and cast even more skills.

'The objective is to survive'

I muttered as I planned to create a large dome around me. One that would hold for as long as I wanted.

[Frost s.h.i.+elds have been activated.]

I closed the dome off with multiple s.h.i.+elds of frost, each layered on top of another.

'Nowonly one thing remains.'

I set up a gravity field and compressed the Ice as much as I could, making it tougher.

Now, it could truly be called an impenetrable defense.

The s.p.a.ce inside the dome is devoid of Shadow mana, so the infection rate wouldn't increase.

I enforced the same further with my mana.

I don't know how many attacks are coming from the outsidebut d.a.m.n is the dome shaking.

"Hooo."

Most escaped from my mouth as I declared.

"I can do thisI just have to endure."

Endure until the time limit ends, and I pa.s.s this floor.

I just have to endure.

********

[Wall of flame has been activated.]

[Fire storm has been activated.]

[h.e.l.lfire has been activated.]

Elijah activated all sorts of skills of the Element of Fire and created a fiery h.e.l.l around him.

He was constantly firing off any wide-area skill he could use!

[Supreme Dragon of Fire Agri tells you to keep it like this.]

Advised Agri, Elijah yelled at him.

"I know!"

He was panicking currently, he didn't have any skills that could create a solid barrier that he could use to fend off the Jiangs.h.i.+, all he could do was fire any skills he had! Continuously.

"How long do I have to do this?!"

He questioned, And the tower responded.

[Until the time limit ends.]

"f.u.c.k you!"

Elijah cursed the tower.

[Fire breath has been activated.]

[Fire Lance has been activated.]

[Fire Physique has been activated.]

The Jiangs.h.i.+ were endless, but Elijah still dodged the aura slashes that made it past the Roaring flames.

[Shadow Infection rate: 6%]

G.o.dd.a.m.nit!

He cursed in his mind.

He took in a deep breath, his chest puffed up and his neck glowed red.

[DRAGON FIRE has been used.]

Elijah used one of the strongest skills he had and decimated the ranks of the Jiangs.h.i.+. Half of the Forest was gone due to the effects of Dragon Fire!

It surged forth like a laser beam and burnt everything to ash. Thousands of jiangs.h.i.+ were burnt to a crisp

But tens of thousands remained.

"d.a.m.n it!"

Elijah cursed as he took out an item from his inventory.

A ring made entirely of gold.

Elijah hurriedly inputted his mana inside the ring and it glowed with an intense light.

[Empire's Call has been used.]

[The black Tortoise Battalion has been summoned!]

Multiple knights, each wearing a set of extremely heavy armor and bulky s.h.i.+elds, stepped out from portals created by the ring. These were all fueled by Elijah's mana.

This was Elijah:a reward for clearing the 20th floor. A ring that could call the forces of the Empire for help.

The Black Tortoise knights formed a circle around him and made a s.h.i.+eld formation.

"Endure for as long as possible!"

Ordered Elijah, as he prepared himself for the worst.

He yelled once again, trying to motivate the knights.

"Endure only for a while!"

He hoped his mana would last long enoughlest he be devoured by the Jiangs.h.i.+.
