Epoch: A Berserker's Rise

Chapter 170: Die!

Adam was more than troubled. A single one of those dragons was as strong as a Level 100 Silver Rank SS Class, or a Gold Rank S Class. Fighting anyone of those dragons would prove to be a tough challenge to Adam, but there were one hundred of them coming here.

Adam looked at Xilzror, who said "We have no chance of surviving I would have been sorry to have implicated you, but since you came here to kill dragons, I guess you can call this karma."

Adam sorted "Karma's a bitch." He then looked at the hole where Neith was, still absorbing the minerals inside. He had to buy enough time for her to finish her promotion, and then they would get out of here. Even if he died, as long as he could take her inside his Pet Space it would be enough.

Adam looked back at Xilzror as he asked "Can you fight?" The dragon prince shook his head and said "I am too heavily injured."

As Adam sighed, the dragons stopped right above them, and one of them took the lead.

[Water Dragon Princess] (Ancestor, Level 100)

HP: 20,000,000/20,000,000

The Water Dragon Princess roared before speaking with a terrifyingly loud voice "For our King has ordered your death, you shall cease to exist from now on Any last words, worm?"

Xilzror snorted back "Stop the theatrics bitch." The Water Dragon Prince was seemingly enraged as she roared once again, exuding a violent killing intent. Suddenly, all the dragons flew into a formation as they opened their mouth toward the little island.

Adam's face changed, and so did Xilzror. However, it was too late to escape, not that Adam would have escaped since he couldn't let Neith on her own. Water gathered in all the dragons mouths as they suddenly released a hundred terrifying Water Dragon Breaths.

There was a central beam of water twice as big as all the others, belonging to the Water Dragons Princess, and it was surrounded by 99 other beams of water. Any one of those would be enough to kill a Level 100 Silver Rank, and when they were all gathered together, even a Peak Gold Rank would undoubtedly die.

Adam greeted his teeth as he activated [Totemic Rage] and jumped in front of the terrifying attack and punched toward it. As the water made contact with his fist, he activated [Ice Statue], using a tenth of his Aura doing so, and then hurriedly used all the rest to protect his body as much as could.

A big part of the water attack was frozen, but unfortunately it wasn't enough in the end. Breath attacks were the skill dragons were renowned for, and everyone knew this was their most powerful attack.

So even as a part of the attack was frozen, it was quickly smashed apart, and hit Adam. He crashed into the island, and so did the breaths. In an instant, the island was smashed to pieces by the joined attack.

Up in the sky, the Water Dragon Princess and her subordinates stopped their attack as the island was completely destroyed, but as she was about to call for the retreat, she was shocked to see the Bronze Rank human that dared to take their attack head on was still alive.

Indeed, Adam hadn't been killed by the attack, and was laying on the remains of the lake's bed. He was in a bad shape, but his injuries were recovering at an astonishing speed.

Although that attack was powerful enough to kill a Peak Gold Rank, Adam had a 75% resistance to Water Attacks. Moreover, he had used an Ice attributed skill to lessen the power of the attack, which resulted in Adam weakening the attack, and hence surviving.

Laying against the sea bed, Adam felt his body was painful, but it was still alright. He turned his head to the side, and was extremely surprised to see Xilzror was still alive, although his condition was even worse than before.

He looked at the other side with panic, but couldn't see anything. He began panicking, because he couldn't feel his telepathic link with Neith anymore. The sensation was very uncomfortable since he had grown accustomed to feel her mind at all time.

And although he didn't want to think about it, the only reason as to why their link would be broken Adam's emotions began turning into a mess as many bad emotions appeared in his head.

After a couple of seconds though, his [Totemic Rage], which was still activated, had a strange reaction as it seemed to enter his mind, and among all the emotions he was feeling, his anger and wrath started boiling.

Adam knew something wasn't right as his killing intent began building up uncontrollably, but feeling the missing link, he just couldn't care anymore. And so, he let go.

The moment he did so, the already building killing intent skyrocketed as Adam released a beast like roar that dwarfed even the ones from the dragons. The Water Dragon Princess felt fear for the first time against the human, and knew that if she just let him do whatever he wanted to do, she would be in danger. So, she ordered for another attack.

While the dragons charged up for another attack, Adam finally lost his mind as he rose from the water. His killing intent, that had been building up in his body, erupted out of his body like water out of a broken dam and crashed into the minds of everyone present.

The world seemed to be turning red as the dragons began shivering unconsciously. However, none of them stopped their attack, and in a moment, they unleashed their attack. Standing on top of the water, the beastly Adam saw the incoming attack, but he didn't seem to care as he released another roar, and his body started expending.

While it grew at an astonishing speed, his hair started growing and turned white. He was transforming. But before he could finish the transformation, the attacks hit him. He had already expended to become a thirty meters tall giant, and the beams hit him in his unprotected belly.

The attack was so powerful that it directly drilled a hole into Adam's body, destroying all his internal organs, including his heart. Although Adam had lost his mind, the system hadn't, and in his status his HP dropped to 0.

The transformation was suddenly stopped as Adam's HP dropped to 0, and he began tumbling down. Xilzror, who thought there was hope, sighed at the gigantic body. In the end, it was still going to die.

The Water Dragon Princess in the sky released a sigh of relief, she didn't know how it was possible, but as the human transformed the danger he gave out was building higher and higher too.

"DIIIIIIE!!!!!!!!"

When she felt that it was finally over though, a screech coming from under the lake's ground echoed through the earth and the water, and finally into the sky. The dragons began writhing in pain as the screech carried a sonic attack with it.

As they wondered what was happening, the earth suddenly exploded, as if a bomb exploded under it, except that there was no bomb, but a 50 meters tall spider bursting out of the ground. This was, of course, Neith.

She jumped out of the water and rammed her body into the crowd of dragons and waved her legs around. Her eight legs smashed into two different dragons, and although they were known as the kings of the sky, they couldn't even resist as they were killed.

Then, instead of falling, Neith was shockingly able to float in the air as her eight red eyes looked at the dragons in absolute rage. She once again screeched, and the sound of the attack was so powerful that the dragons started bleeding from their ears.

"Die! Die! Die!" Apart from being able to fly, she was even able to speak. Actually, earlier the reason the telepathic link had been broken was because she had finally succeeded in breaking through and promoting to the Elder Rank, and the great change in power had also strengthened her mind.

And when a monster's mind was strengthened, they would gain nor memories from their bloodline, and so they mind would be changed a little bit, which was why for a moment the link had been broken. But for Neith, she had no doubt, she had seen Adam get hit and killed by the attack, enraging her.

As Neith began fighting the dragons in the sky, everyone's attention was on the fight up there, and so no one saw that the amulet hanging around Adam's oversized neck started glowing with a green light as his skin started shedding.
