Chapter 449: It Swallowed It? Is It Out Of Its Mind?
A fountain of poisonous liquid surged into the air.
Amidst the poisonous deluge, a piece of poison elemental material—clearly of legendary-grade—was ejected as well.
The Flood Dragon’s eyes locked onto it. There was no doubt: this was why it had come.
A breeze passed silently.
[Poison God's Blood Essence]
[Poison God's Blood Essence: usable by poison-type classes, significantly enhances the chances of class sublimation during the third class awakening. Additionally, offers a chance to awaken a poison-type skill.]
Lin Moyu’s pupils narrowed sharply. Poison God's Blood Essence—the blood essence of a God, and not the solidified kind.
Should he make a move? The answer came instantly: yes.
With a crackle of thunder, Lightning Deathwings unfolded. Lin Moyu shot forward like a bolt of lightning.
Now that he’d made up his mind, he had no hesitation. He cast Detection on the Flood Dragon.[Venomous Flood Dragon (world rank boss)]
[Level: 85]
[Strength: 1,500,000]
[Agility: 1,700,000]
[Spirit: 1,000,000]
[Physique: 1,700,000]
[Skill: Death Bite, Relentless Devour, Grim Venom]
[Trait: 50% Physical Damage Reduction, 85% Poison Elemental Damage Reduction]
It was a level 85 world rank boss, with total attributes of 5.9 million—300,000 less than the Giant Leaf Mother Tree.
However, its agility was very high, so it was likely very nimble, unlike the Giant Leaf Mother Tree, which remained stationary
If he was going to fight, the first priority was clear: restrict its movement.
Lin Moyu decided to reuse the strategy he had employed against the Giant Leaf Mother Tree—using the Enhance Troops skill to inflict massive damage in a short amount of time, to either drive the boss away or take it down.
Unlike the Giant Leaf Mother Tree, the Venomous Flood Dragon lacked the Enhanced Health trait, so it regeneration ability wasn’t as good. There was still a chance.
The Venomous Flood Dragon spotted him, a look of disdain in its eyes. Its massive jaws opened to suck in the Poison God's Blood Essence.
But Lin Moyu had already intervened—how could he let it succeed now? If it swallowed the blood essence, what was the point of stepping in?
He raised his right hand.
Skill: Deterioration Curse.
The curse descended, slowing the Venomous Flood Dragon’s movements.
But this wasn't enough. A flicker of flame ignited in his left palm.
Skill: Soul Blaze!
The Venomous Flood Dragon let out a piercing shriek. The suction power was abruptly interrupted.
At that moment, Skeletal Great Mages materialized and launched their assault.
Elemental Explosions detonated on the Venomous Flood Dragon's body.
A green light radiated from its body, and poisonous gas burst outward, repelling the Elemental Explosions.
Even weakened by the curse, the Venomous Flood Dragon’s defenses held strong.
But Lin Moyu wasn’t aiming to injure it—he wanted to block its vision.
He directed the Skeletal Great Mages to aim for its eyes, all in an effort to buy time.
Though momentarily hindered, the Venomous Flood Dragon quickly recalibrated. It could still sense the Poison God's Blood Essence.
The Venomous Flood Dragon opened its maw and lunged. If it couldn’t draw the Poison God’s Blood Essence in, it would seize it directly.
Lin Moyu pointed again, casting another skill.
Skill: Bone Prison.
The Venomous Flood Dragon froze midair, bound by pale white bones.
But only for a heartbeat.
The potent venom of the Venomous Flood Dragon began corroding the bones.
In just one second, the prison crumbled.
Yet that one second was enough.
Two consecutive disruptions had bought Lin Moyu over two seconds.
In that brief window, he had already crossed 1,400 meters—appearing directly before the Poison God's Blood Essence.
With a sweep of his hand, he secured it into his storage space.
Realizing the blood essence had been stolen, the Venomous Flood Dragon let out a furious roar.
The insignificant creature it had dismissed as an ant had actually stolen its prize.
Its rage exploded.
It opened its jaws again—this time unleashing a terrifying suction force.
Lin Moyu was instantly drawn in, hurtling toward its venom-dripping teeth, eyes gleamed with savage bloodthirst, ready to shred him apart.
But Lin Moyu stayed perfectly calm.
The rune on the back of his hand ignited. The Enhance Troops skill—its cooldown long reset—was activated abruptly.
His combat ability—and that of his undead army—soared to the peak.
Skeletal Great Mages and Skeletal Marksmen unleashed a storm of attacks, aiming directly at the Venomous Flood dragon’s gaping maw.
Under the power of Enhance Troops, the undead army's damage output skyrocketed—more than tenfold.
Their spells and arrows tore through the Venomous Flood Dragon’s defenses instantly.
At that moment, Lin Moyu deployed the Skeletal Berserk Warriors and Elemental Liches.
Rings of light flared beneath the skeletons’ feet.
In the next breath, fire surged, lightning crashed down, and chaos erupted.
The rings of light didn’t just target the Venomous Flood Dragon; they swept across the battlefield, engulfing nearby serpent monsters as well.
The range of the rings of light extended nearly 1,000 meters.
The Skeletal Great Mages and Skeletal Marksmen were positioned farther back, the rings of light beneath their feet encompassed some of the serpent monsters."
The moment the Skeletal Berserk Warriors appeared, Lin Moyu raised his hand again—Bone Prison, cast a second time.
Bone Prison wasn’t an offensive skill, so it wasn’t affected by Enhance Troops. All it could do was buy Lin Moyu a fleeting moment—just a single second.
But that was all he needed.
The Skeletal Berserk Warriors surged forward like a tidal wave—9,000 in total—charging straight for the Venomous Flood Dragon, ignoring the strong poison.
They swung their axes and activated their skill.
Lin Moyu had learned from experience: when facing a world rank boss, you must strike decisively. Give them a breath, and you die.
The second passed, and the Bone Prison shattered. But it was already too late.
A storm of axes rained down.
The Venomous Flood Dragon’s sturdy scales were cleaved apart, fragments flying in all directions.
The boss roared in agony, its cries shaking the air.
The focused assault of the 9,000 Skeletal Berserk Warriors had dealt devastating damage.
Their skill now on cooldown, their mission was complete.
The Skeletal Berserk Warriors turned and flew toward the serpent monsters.
Under the effect of Enhance Troops, these ordinary monsters were nothing. Even without using their skill, cutting them down was no harder than butchering chickens.
But the Venomous Flood Dragon wasn’t done.
Amid its howls of pain, it suddenly launched a vicious counterattack—a torrent of venom burst from its jaws.
Lin Moyu’s expression darkened. He shot upward, avoiding the toxic spray.
Those Skeletal Berserk Warriors caught in its path had no chance. The venom struck them—and in less than a second, they decomposed away into nothing.
Not even Lin Moyu’s talent could save them.
Then it struck him—why his talent had failed.
An answer surfaced in his mind, and he felt certain it was correct.
The Skeletal Berserk Warriors scattered, but the damage was done. More than 1,000 of them were annihilated.
After spewing venom, the Venomous Flood Dragon’s body glowed with a green hue—poisonous gas radiated outward, and its wounds began knitting back together rapidly.
Lin Moyu’s eyes narrowed, and a flicker of flame burst to life in his hand.
He took out a piece of Solidified Fire God's Blood Essence—and summoned the God-level Fire Lich once more.
The God-level Fire Lich appeared and charged toward the Venomous Flood Dragon.
The boss instinctively spat another wave of venom.
But this time, the result was different. The venom was burned away by the near-God-level flames around the Fire Lich.
To prevent the Venomous Flood Dragon from escaping, Lin Moyu raised his hand again casting Bone Prison for the third time.
But the moment the skill activated, the bones shattered before they could even weave together.
The poisonous green gas surrounding the dragon had condensed into an invisible shield.
After being restrained twice, the Venomous Flood Dragon had adapted. Bone Prison no longer worked—its effect completely nullified.
“This thing's really not easy to deal with.”
Lin Moyu’s eyes narrowed. Another flicker of flame danced to life in his palm—Soul Blaze appeared again.
The Venomous Flood Dragon roared, then inhaled sharply.
This time, the suction force was completely different.
Before, it had been a simple breath—a standard attack.
Now, it had activated a skill.
Skill: Relentless Devour!
The terrifying suction force exploded outward like a howling vortex.
The Skeletal Berserk Warriors that had retreated were suddenly flung backward, drawn in at even greater speed.
Even the approaching Fire Lich was affected—it was sucked straight into the Venomous Flood Dragon's gaping maw.
Lin Moyu had intended to let it taste Soul Blaze—now enhanced more than tenfold—but the moment he saw this, he halted instantly.
“It swallowed it? Is it out of its mind?” Lin Moyu muttered to himself, silently starting a countdown in his mind as he fled at full speed.
3... 2...
The Venomous Flood Dragon continued to cast its skill, pulling the Skeletal Berserk Warriors that it hated the most toward its mouth.
By the time the countdown reached 0, Lin Moyu had already put some distance between them.
Boom!
An earth-shattering explosion erupted, and raging flames broke out from within the Venomous Flood Dragon’s body.
The Fire Lich had detonated inside it.
Meanwhile, a number of the Skeletal Berserk Warriors had plunged into the midst of the serpent monsters, cleaving through them in a merciless slaughter.
