Lian wiped the blood from his chin and took a deep breath. His whole body hurt. His shoulder was broken, and several ribs were cracked.
His left arm could barely move, but he was still on his feet. Fortunately, upgrading his skill was the right thing he had done, and it had saved him at the last mont.
On the other side of the field, Seris’s condition was not better. Her armor was broken in several places. Blood was flowing from her neck, but she still held the Frostfang sword tightly.
Lian’s gaze fell on her for a mont, and when he saw that part of her chest and her visible curves, he was startled for a mont and imdiately pulled his gaze away.
Seris seed to notice his look but was too lazy to care in this situation.
In front of them, the Titan stood. Its body was covered with shallow cracks, but it still gave off that feeling of horror. It still looked like an unbreakable mountain.
Lian wanted to start attacking again, but that girl did not let him and activated her newly upgraded skill.
[Phantom Step]
Her body vanished. A shadow remained behind her, then a second shadow, a third shadow, and suddenly, it was as if several Serises appeared on the field at the sa ti.
Even Lian could not tell which one was the real body.
WOOSH!
Seris launched the first attack. Several images of her charged at the Titan at the sa ti. The swords ca down from different angles.
CRACK!
CRACK!
CRACK!
Huge pieces of the monster’s ice armor shattered. The Titan roared, but this ti it could not counterattack imdiately.
It was clear that whatever Seris had done, her hits had beco much more destructive.
Lian used the opportunity. The monster was busy with that girl, and now was the best ti to perform a powerful sneak attack.
WOOSH!
His claw dragged across the Titan’s knee.
CRACK!
A massive crack opened. For the first ti, the Titan stepped back one step. Just one step, but that one step was enough.
Lian’s eyes lit up. It was taking damage. That ant it could be killed. His skill upgrade had worked. The penetration power of his attacks had increased greatly.
Now he could deal destructive blows.
But the next mont, his whole face changed, because the Titan raised its hand.
[Frozen Dominion]
The temperature suddenly dropped. The ground froze. The surrounding buildings beca covered in crystals. Even breathing beca hard.
Seris imdiately shivered. Her lips turned blue. Her condition, which had improved a little, beca terrible again, and her movents slowed down.
But the cold had no effect on Lian, and he continued his attacks one after another.
But the Titan did not stay idle either. Seeing that this stubborn human would not give up, it changed its attack.
[Glacier Break]
BOOOOM!
Hundreds of ice pillars shot up from the ground. One of them hit Lian directly in his left side. The sound of breaking bones was heard. Blood sprayed from his mouth.
His body was thrown several ters into the air.
"Cough..." He barely stood on his feet, but he still had no chance to breathe.
Because the Titan attacked again.
[Frozen Cataclysm]
Blue light gathered in the Titan’s mouth, and a mont later, a massive beam was fired again.
WHOOOOM!
The entire street in front was destroyed. An entire ice tower collapsed in the distance. Lian pulled himself aside with all his speed and succeeded.
But the shockwave still slamd him to the ground. The skin on his right arm was burned. Blood flowed from several different wounds and his head.
"Damn it..." For the first ti since the battle started, he felt like they might actually die. He was slowly losing hope.
He even thought to himself, could the situation get any worse than this?
And at that mont, a red notification appeared.
[Warning]
[Mana Below 5]
[Active Skills Consuming Remaining Mana]
[Estimated Remaining Ti: 4 Minutes]
Lian’s eyes narrowed. His mana was running out. He had completely forgotten about this. If it reached zero...
Steelhide would turn off.
Glacial Reaper Claw would turn off.
All his advantages would disappear.
"I think it’s ti for Plan B." He had an idea of what to do. But the problem was that it was a one-ti chance.
If they failed, it ant certain death.
He quickly opened the panel and clicked on Thunder Fang. Now was the ti to put all his eggs in one basket.
He did not know if it would work, but he had to try.
[Thunder Fang]
[Rank: Common ( )]
[Evolution Cost: 7 Fragnts]
[Confirm?]
"Confirm."
[Evolution Complete]
[Thunder Fang → Storm Tyrant Fang]
[Rank: Great ( )]
[Description: Lightning is compressed inside the user’s body. The speed, power, and penetration of attacks increase greatly. Part of the enemy’s defense is ignored. After penetrating the target, the lightning creates internal destruction.
The more mana you use, the stronger the lightning will be. With enough mana, a lightning explosion can be created.
Mana consumption: 0.5 per minute]
Lines of lightning appeared on Lian’s arms. The snow around him exploded. The ground cracked. A wild power flowed through his body.
But the mana warning was still in front of his eyes. There was little ti left, and he had to use this ti in the best way possible.
He looked at Seris.
"We have to gamble."
"What do you an?" Seris frowned and felt bad.
"We hit it with our strongest attacks at the sa ti."
"Then?"
"I need a few seconds of opportunity."
"For what?"
"The core."
"If you are wrong, you will die." Seris’s eyes narrowed, and she understood where her bad feeling ca from.
"Do we have any other choice?" Lian smiled. But it was a smile that looked more helpless.
A few seconds of silence passed. Then Seris nodded.
"We don’t."
The Titan attacked again, but this ti both of them jumped forward at the sa ti.
[King’s Execution]
All of Seris’s mana flowed into the sword. The Frostfang blade shone, and a massive silver light ford around it.
At the sa ti...
[Storm Tyrant Fang]
Lightning exploded on Lian’s arms. The air trembled. The ground cracked. He spent 3 of the remaining 5 mana on this attack.
That ant if he failed, there would be no next ti.
And then both attacks landed with all their power.
BOOOOM!
A massive explosion shook the city. Even the Titan was pushed back. The lightning light blinded its eyes for a few monts.
It let out a loud, angry roar and felt that its skin was burning intensely. Its body began to hurt. Its monster instincts were screaming danger.
"Right now!" Lian shouted and ran toward the monster’s chest at full speed.
He saw the core. The blue crystal deep inside the monster’s body. He released all his remaining mana. All of it. He spent the remaining 2 mana here.
He did not leave a single drop.
[Storm Tyrant Fang]
[Glacial Reaper Claw]
The hit landed.
CRACK!
The core cracked, but it was not destroyed. At that mont, the lightning explosion happened.
His body could not handle this amount of energy. The bones of both his hands were crushed. His flesh burned. His skin was mostly destroyed. Blood burst from his entire body.
"AAAAAAARGH!" He scread in pain, and his body was thrown dozens of ters.
He fell on the snow and could no longer move. He was finished. He had lost all ability to fight. His half-open eyes saw only one thing.
The core, which was still not completely destroyed.
And then Seris. She bit her lip. Blood was flowing from her body as well, but she did not stop. She ran with the last of her strength. This was also a gamble from her side.
The monster still could not see well and was roaring terribly from the pain.
The sword went up and ca down.
CRACK!
The core broke.
But at the sa ti, the Titan’s massive claw hit her chest. The sound of breaking bones was heard. Seris coughed up blood.
And she was thrown back like a broken doll.
A few seconds of silence passed. No one moved. Not because they did not want to, but because the two no longer had the strength to move.
Then...
CRACK...
CRACK...
CRACK...
The cracks on the core spread. The blue light went out. The massive Titan fell forever.
BOOOOOM!
All of Frostheart shook.
While Lian and Seris both lay on the edge of death, the system notifications appeared.
