[ Asura Transformation Complete: 150% All Stats. 30% Attack Speed. ]
"Die," Igris’s voice echoed with a demonic, dual-layered resonance.
He vanished.
The King swung its hamr desperately, roaring as it activated its skill: Lizard King’s
Judgnt!
Blue lightning erupted from the hamr, blasting outward in a massive
AoE do to incinerate the human.
But Igris was already inside its guard.
"Slash! Slash! Slash!"
Operating at speeds the boss couldn’t even track, Igris’s four arms moved in
perfect synchronization. The iron sword parried the shaft of the War Hamr,
completely locking the boss’s weapon in place, while his upper arms slashed the
blood-reinforced Katana down in an unblockable, X-shaped cross-slash, amplified
by the 10x Multiplier!
"SHLUCK!"
The crimson energy cut through the King’s black scales, through its dense
muscles, and completely bisected its torso into four neat, bloody pieces.
The blue lightning fizzled out. The Giant Lizard King’s body remained standing for a
second before the pieces slowly slid apart, collapsing onto the shattered stone
floor in a pool of dark blood.
[ Green Lizard King (Level 15 Boss) Eliminated! ] [ 1,000 EXP. ]
The throne room fell dead silent. Igris stood amidst the carnage, chest heaving.
As the 60-second tir on his Asura Transformation expired, his two extra arms
dissolved into red mist, leaving him whole and exhausted.
Golden notifications erupted in his vision, illuminating the dark room.
[ Floor Cleared! ] [ Congratulations on solo-clearing the Green Lizard Dungeon.
] [ Solo Reward: 1 to all stats, 3000 EXP, War-King Hamr (Black Iron), 1000 Iron
Crowns, Gold Chest (1x). ] [ System Notice: You are the seventh person in
history to clear this dungeon entirely alone. Would you like your na revealed
on the Global Zenith Record? ]
"Hell no. Keep it hidden," Igris gasped, dropping to the floor like a starfish,
staring at the cavern ceiling.
[ Your na shall remain hidden. ] [ Please step through the portal to exit the portal. ]
"Huff!" "Huff!" "Huff!"
Igris panted like a mad dog as his energy had being totally drained
Igris laid there for a full minute, letting the adrenaline fade. The constant
battling had taken a toll on his mind, but the rewards were unimaginable.
Igris checked his status and saw he just needed to go over the dungeon two more tis to actually advance the system to 100x multiplier!
If he could do this, then all dungeons in this area would be all his to conquer as he wish!
Not to ntion the lizard king, even a level 10 Boss would die in half a slash.
He picked up his loot, sheathed his katana, and slowly limped toward the glowing
blue exit portal that appeared next to him.
It was ti to head back to the Academy.
The blue light of the exit portal washed over Igris, depositing him safely back
at the Greenshade boundary.
The chaotic noise of the plaza instantly assaulted his ears. There were even
more students gathered outside the T-Rex jaw entrance now, many of them nursing
injuries, while others celebrated their hard-fought clears.
Igris stepped to the side, leaning against a massive boulder to catch his
breath. He looked up and realized the leaderboard of the dungeon had unlock for him and he could see it now, hovering high above the dungeon entrance.
[ Green Lizard Dungeon Leaderboard]
No 1. Starlight Team - 28
Minutes, 14 Seconds.
No 2. Bloodhound Squad - 42 Minutes, 50 Seconds.
3. Penta-Star
Elites - 45 Minutes, 11 Seconds. ...
84. [Player Hidden] (Solo) - 1 Hour, 13
Minutes, 09 Seconds.
Igris scrolled down with his eyes and finally saw his na in the 84th spot.
Around him, spectators and exhausted students were loudly gossiping, pointing up
at the glowing number one spot.
"Twenty-eight minutes! Starlight Team is absolutely insane!" a Marlin student
gasped.
"Well, what did you expect? The team is led by Arian Nickel, Snow, and
Ghordorn. They literally have the three strongest C-Rank Talents in our class!"
"I heard they didn’t even stop moving. Their tank pulled all the aggro, their
healer kept their stamina infinitely topped off, and Arian just incinerated
everything in their path. That’s the power of perfect team synergy!"
Another spoke.
"There’s no
way anyone is beating 28 minutes. Instructor Feinrier’s ultimate reward is
definitely going to Arian."
Igris listened to the chatter, his dual-colored eyes narrowing thoughtfully.
He had taken over an hour because he had treated the dungeon like a stealth
mission.
He didn’t know the layout, he was sneaking around farming individual
patrols for his Soul Devourer passive, and he had to fight a prolonged, brutal
battle against the Boss while figuring out his own limits.
But now?
He knew exactly where the encampnt was. He knew exactly where the boss room
was.
His base stats had skyrocketed after leveling up and absorbing the souls of
the entire lizard tribe.
And most importantly... he was just a bit to unlock the 100x Multiplier.
Igris pulled up his status. Even with his Stage 2 Cancer penalty bringing his
Strength down, applying a 10x Multiplier would give him an
effective combat strength.
At this level, he was a walking nuclear warhead.
"Twenty-eight minutes, huh?" Igris muttered, rolling his fully healed shoulders.
A competitive, predatory smirk spread across his face.
He turned around and walked right back into the abyssal mouth of the dungeon.
A few students noticed him re-entering.
"Hey, look! The Null Talent guy is going back in!" "Did he die in the first five
minutes and barely managed to escape?" one of them laughed. "He must have a death wish!"
Igris ignored them. The mont the darkness of the dungeon swallowed him, the
System chid.
[ Would you like to reset the Green Lizard Dungeon instance? ] "Yes," Igris
commanded.
The prehistoric forest materialized around him once more.
This ti, there was no crouching. There was no sneaking.
Igris drew his saber, the blade humd, thirsty for more
souls.
Igris took a single step forward.
KA-BOOM!
The earth didn’t just crack—it completely vaporized beneath his foot, leaving a
crater three ters deep.
Igris broke the sound barrier instantly. A deafening sonic boom echoed through
the dungeon as he launched forward, tearing a literal trench through the tall
grass.
He didn’t bother dodging the massive, ancient trees.
He simply ran
through them.
The sheer kinetic pressure surrounding his body blew the
three-ter-thick oak trees into splinters the mont he made contact.
A patrol of five Green Lizard Sentries was wandering near the stream. They
turned their heads toward the deafening noise.
They didn’t even see a blur.
Igris blew past them at supersonic speed, casually holding his katana out to the
side. The compressed air pressure trailing off the edge of his blade sliced all
five Lizardn perfectly in half before the steel even touched them.
[ Multiple Enemies Eliminated! 50 EXP ]
He didn’t stop. He crossed the 500-ter distance to the main encampnt in a
matter of seconds.
The war drums didn’t even have ti to sound.
Igris crashed into the center of the camp like a teor, creating a shockwave
that flattened every bone-hut within a fifty-ter radius. Dozens of Green
Lizard Warriors were thrown into the air like ragdolls.
Before gravity could pull them back down, Igris leaped into the sky.
Dual-Skill Casting!
Channeling his DUST energy, he executed the basic Rapid Slash.
A terrifying do of jet-black sword shadows erupted in mid-air. It looked like
a blooming lotus flower made of pure, lethal kinetic energy. Every single Lizard
Warrior caught in the do was instantly minced into green mist.
[ Multiple Enemies Eliminated! 1,200 EXP ]
Landing gracefully amidst the rain of blood, Igris didn’t pause. He kicked off
the ground again, rocketing straight toward the massive stone palace at the back
of the camp.
The Superior Mutated Commander stepped out of the palace, hissing furiously as
it drew its twin bone-blades.
Igris didn’t even slow down.
As he ran past the Commander, he casually flicked his wrist.
CLANG-SHLUCK!
The Commander’s twin bone-blades shattered into white powder, and its head spun
into the air.
BANG!
Igris didn’t bother pushing the massive stone doors of the throne room open. He
kicked them. The reinforced stone doors blew off their hinges, rocketing across
the hall and smashing into the far wall like artillery shells.
The gaunt, three-ter-tall Green Lizard King was just standing up from its bone
throne, its yellow eyes widening in shock at the sudden, violent intrusion.
It raised its crackling, lightning-infused War Hamr and opened its jaws to
speak. "Huma—"
Igris was already standing right in front of it.
"Too slow," Igris whispered.
Swing One. The jet-black katana cleaved upward, colliding with the massive War
Hamr. The sheer, overwhelming force of the 100x Multiplier snapped the boss’s
legendary weapon clean in half like a dry twig.
Swing Two. Igris reversed his grip, slashing horizontally. The blade
effortlessly sheared through the King’s impenetrable midnight-black scales,
shattering its ribcage and exposing its organs.
Swing Three. With a fluid, graceful spin, Igris brought the katana around in a
full 360-degree arc.
SHING!
The Green Lizard King’s head slid off its neck, its crown of skulls clattering
loudly onto the stone floor.
