Chapter 671 Erika's Draconic Might
-----
Amidst an army of giant bugs composing the entirety of what was left within Floor 1, and also their general, a C+ Rank Monster with the power to debuff us and buff its own army, some of my friends seemed overly concerned.
"B-Blake, what should we do?" Alberta asked.
What a foolish question, I suppose Alberta had yet to gain enough confidence, but it is understandable, over time, she'll learn how we do things here.
"What do we do? We do the same thing we've done before." I smiled. "Just massacre them! Crush them all. Be more confident, everyone." I smiled.
I looked at Elizabeth, as she gave me a smile and nodded.
"Elizabeth, I'm counting on you." I said. "Prove Alberta that after what we've gone through… This is nothing but some diversion at most."
"Of course." Elizabeth smiled proudly, quickly raising her staff. "[Holy Enhancement: Attack & Defense]!"
FLAAAASH!
A bright golden light reached our bodies, merging into our soul and physique and enhancing our strength and endurance, and even magical power.
Ding!
[Elizabeth] has conjured the [Holy Enhancement: Attack & Defense] Tier 4 Light Magic Spell!]
[All of her allies have received an enhancement to Strength and Vitality of +25%, Total Damage Dealt by +15%, and Damage Taken Reduction by -15%!]
"A-Amazing, did you had this buff before, Elizabeth?!" Asked Alberta in surprise, her entire body, which was covered on a heavy red and black armor, began overflowing with new strength.
"Hah, it is nothing with one of Blake's buffing Skills." Elizabeth smiled. "But it'll be useful!"
"Now charge! Crush these bugs!" I roared.
Ding!
[The Effects of the [Command: Lv8] Skill have been activated!]
[All of those that obey your immediate command will receive a +80% boost to All Stats as long as the battle continues.]
"T-This power you used before…" Alberta was amazed, holding her hammer, which quickly started to grow larger and blazing with flames. "Alright! I guess I have to be more confident… I need to trust everyone…" She gritted her teeth. "Eric, cover my back!"
"A-Alberta?!" Eric was surprised as he saw his girlfriend rush into battle head-first with the other heavy hitters such as Erika and Erdrich.
"RAAAAAHHH! [Blazing Volcanic Hammer]!!!" Alberta roared, suddenly and finally showcasing the true might of her Dwarven Bloodline.
Her entire body began to swell with muscles beneath that heavy armor, as her hammer grew up to seven meters of height, so heavy yet she was still capable of wield it.
C R A A A A A A S S S S H H H!!!
The immense blazing hammer hit a Giant Scorpion's head, blasting it into pieces as flames spread across the caves, magma started gushing out everywhere, melting the bugs around and even the floor! Amazing, such a destructive power!
I never thought about it, but Alberta does indeed has an amazing potential as a front-line tank! She was always too shy to engage into combat, but it seems she has begun to finally realize her true strength.
"Ugh… Aagh! I-It stuck!" She suddenly started to panic, trying to take off the hammer from the floor, the giant insects slowly started reaching to her. "Uwawawawaaahhh!"
…Never mind, I'll take that back. She still has a long way to go.
"Alberta, be careful!" Eric cried, quickly firing a barrage of hundreds of Spirit Arrows enchanted with Light and Fire Element using Basic Magic Spells he learned long ago. "[Spirit Bow Arts]: [Elemental Spirit Arrow Rain]!"
The arrows swiftly surrounded Alberta as they fell down over the gigantic bugs, consecutively exploding and causing massive damage against the massive beasts.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
"E-Eric!" Alberta was relieved as he walked to her side.
"Remember that you can reduce the hammer's size!" He said.
"A-Ah! Right! I got so nervous I forgot…" Alberta apologized, quickly putting her hammer back to its normal, smaller size. "Ah right, I could do that though! I raise it when its smaller and then make it big, with its own weight, it'll fall down on foes easily!"
"Oh? Good idea!" Eric said. "Do that then, there's a few more incoming!"
"Grizzlies, give them support." I ordered.
"GROOOAAARRR!" Ten Grizzlies were mobilized at the side of Eric and Alberta, as they quickly tanked the multiple attacks coming from the giant insects all at once, and then retaliated with claw attacks, while setting ablaze the bugs, slowly beginning to weaken them.
"Thanks, Blake!" Eric said. "Leave this area to us, we'll take care of it! Right, Alberta?"
"I-I'll do my best!" Alberta nodded nervously.
"Don't disappoint me!" I said with a smile, quickly running over my Earth Drake to support my other friends.
"SHAAAAHHH!!!" An army of over a dozen Giant Scorpions with red exoskeletons were fiercely fighting Erika. They were immune to the flames no matter how many oil or flames were thrown at them, they were named Red Fiery Scorpions, and the General Spider was using them smartly to tank most of the fire attribute magic attacks for them.
"Ugh, you damn scorpions won't give up, huh?!" Erika roared furiously; her entire body began to shapeshift. "[Draconification]!"
FLAAAASH!
Her body gained several golden scales, as her wings spread out of her back, made out of wood and golden leaves. Her eyes shone brightly, as her Stats skyrocketed. She rose her Demonic Great Sword, descending from above like a falling meteor.
"[Draconic Blade]!"
CLAAASH! CLAAASH! CLAAASH! CRAAAAASSSHHH!!!
With a series of powerful slashing attacks, she administrated deadly cuts all over the Red Fiery Scorpions, many of them ended with their stingers and pincers cut off into pieces, they desperately stepped back, firing fireballs at her.
"[Spirit Weaponization]! [Spirit Fusion]!"
FLAAASH!
Then, Erika fused several of her Doll Spirits together into a single mass, utilizing Spirit Weaponization to generate a gigantic shield.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM!
Using the shield, she shielded herself from attacks while charging her jaws with Mana and unleashing a deadly Dragon Breath.
B O O O O O O M M M M M M!!!
