Inside the Dragon Nest,
Lis''s hand viciously thrust the dagger into the lower abdomen of the White Dragon, and scalding Dragon Blood spurted out from the wound.
Without the slightest mercy, Lis twisted the dagger in his hand to slice open the abdomen of the White Dragon as much as possible, knowing that a mere superficial cut would be quickly staunched by the Dragon n''s formidable healing abilities.
The White Dragon Tobias couldn''t grasp at all what had happened; his mind went nk.
However, the intense pain from his belly made his body subconsciously start to react: his sharp dragon ws ferociously reached forward, and at the same time, his body twisted trying to shake off the stealth attacker in front of him.
Seeing that his stealth attack had seeded, Lis had no intention of engaging in a closebat brawl. With a swift move, he dodged the White Dragon''s w strike.
The dagger in Lis''s hand was coated with the scorching crimson blood of the White Dragon, causing a slight burning sensation when it dripped onto the back of Lis''s hand.
This was the corrosive effect of Dragon Blood power; if one could fully withstand it, it was akin to undergoing the process of "Bathing in Dragon Blood," significantly enhancing one''s physical strength.@@novelbin@@
Although it wouldn''t make one invulnerable to des and spears as legends suggest, it would substantially increase bodily resilience and defensive capabilities, slightly boosting magic resistance.
Honestly, the dagger Lis used in his stealth attack was the same one he used in the fight against the Ice Storm Bear. Logically, the White Dragon''s scales should have offered stronger defense than those of the Ice Storm Bear.
But this time, Lis''s attack smoothly prated the White Dragon''s defenses.
This was because before the attack, Lis had first enchanted the dagger with the Four Rings Magic known as [Advanced Magic Weapon] rather than an elemental Enchantment, focusing instead on a high sharpness buff.
Also, during the attack on the White Dragon, he used the Skill [Shadow Raid].
[Shadow Raid] allowed the user''s attack to be supplemented with Shadow Power, possessing a prating effect against the target''s defense.
He targeted the rtively weaker part of the scales at the abdomen of the White Dragon, ensuring a sessful strike.
In the series of interconnected attacks just now, Lis seemed to grasp a certain feeling.
In battle, the coordination between different Professional Skills isn''t arbitrary; it requires urate selection to achieve an effect where 1+1 is greater than 2.
The synergy between different Professional Skills often resulted in unexpected effects, and Lis felt he could possibly achieve the same level of coordinated teamwork as a squad of Extraordinary Professionals.
All these thoughts shed through Lis''s mind in an instant, with his attention refocused on the White Dragon in front of him.
Although severely wounded in the abdomen, White Dragon Tobias was still a True Dragon. His massive body meant that the injury wasn''t instantly fatal, retaining his mobility for the time being.
Logically, the attack should have alerted him to the grave danger.
This man in front of him was powerful enough to threaten his life.
But Tobias couldn''t care less, as the pain from his body incessantly stimted his nerves, intent on killing this "petty" person in front of him. Your next read is at My Virtual Library Empire
Roar!!!
The White Dragon pped its wings and took flight, but regrettably, this Dragon Nest, recently found and barely modified, was quite cramped.
Tobias didn''t mind, soared into the air, and bellowed as he opened his mouth full of sharp teeth.
A conical stream of white frost sted towards where Lis was.
[Cold Ice Dragon Breath]!
Lis''s body stiffened, and with a flicker, he retreated backward.
He certainly did not want to endure the attack of Dragon Breath with his body.
As one of the strongest powers of a True Dragon, each Dragon Breath varied in nature and effects among different True Dragons, but they all shared the immense power of Dragon Breath, almostparable to a Shape Changing Magic of the same level, and they were instantaneous attacks.
Seeing this, the White Dragon adjusted its head to continued "spitting" at Lis.
Lis wasn''t rushing either, leisurely circling around with the White Dragon within the confines of the nest.
For the experienced Lis, the preparatory movement of the White Dragon''s head before spitting Dragon Breath was quite evident, making dodging quite manageable.
Besides, the Dragon Breath was not infinite.
The substances forming the Dragon Breath were stored inside the White Dragon''s body, not created by magic, naturally running out over time.
Seeing that his usually unassable Dragon Breath had no effect on the detestable stealth attacker infuriated White Dragon Tobias even more.
Halting the Dragon Breath, he flew around twice, then suddenly charged at Lis.
This was one of the preferred hunting methods of a young dragon, diving to increase speed, carrying immense force; this was the most effective way to leverage the formidable physical advantage of the Dragon n.
Lis was, of course, well aware. He chose not to meet the charge head-on, instead, his figure shed, instantly disappearing from the White Dragon''s sight.
Assassinbat technique [Forced Stealth]!
This was a skill Lis had learned from the esteemed Joey, precious and rare, only attainable when one''s affinity with the Shadow ne reached a certain level.
Staying hidden was the strongest advantage of an assassin, but it vanishes after the initial attack.
If one couldn''t gain a significant advantage in the first strike, a normal assassin in directbat wouldn''t be able to measure up to other Professionals of the same level.
Of course, those assassins who followed the [Sword Master] path and loved invincible rampages were exceptions.
Which method was truly the best for an assassin, and whichbat style was the "Assassin''s Soul," were topics without a consensus among assassin yers since Lis''s reincarnation.
