I Cast Forbidden Spells Until the World Breaks-Chapter 81: The Spear Strikes Like a Dragon from the Sea
The night was pitch black, silent in every direction.
Then a low roar shattered the stillness, like a demon howling straight out of hell.
A massive canine shadow leapt from the darkness.
Its body was enormous, wrapped in black flames.
Crimson eyes burned in the night, filled with savage intent.
Foul, corrosive saliva dripped endlessly from its jaws.
Jagged fangs gleamed, as if they could tear apart anything in their path.
What truly chilled the blood was this.
It had three heads.
Six blood red eyes locked onto Zayne and Eva at the same time.
This was the legendary Hellhound, Cerberus.
A true high tier monster.
Low tier monsters and high tier monsters existed on completely different levels.
Low tier monsters were weak in both strength and intelligence.
Their level cap was only 50.
Level 50 was the absolute ceiling for low tier monsters.
Slimes were a classic example.
High tier monsters were different.
They were vastly stronger, had higher level caps, and possessed real intelligence.
They could think, plan, and even set traps.
A single high tier monster could easily tear apart over a dozen low tier monsters of the same level.
And the Cerberus in front of them was level 36.
No wonder Eva had been badly injured at the start.
If she had not been saving Zayne, she could have dodged that first strike.
"Get farther away. This thing is dangerous."
Zayne spoke calmly to Eva.
This Cerberus was likely the strongest monster in the entire Champion Secret Realm.
Cerberus growled as it circled the campfire.
Its posture made one thing clear.
Zayne and Eva were prey.
"Fireball!"
Zayne struck first.
He activated a skill scroll.
Under Absolute Ascension, Fireball instantly transformed into Wrath of the Flame God.
A massive red gold blazing sun slammed toward Cerberus.
But at that moment, Zayne felt something strange.
From those six enormous eyes, he sensed an emotion.
Contempt.
The second head opened its jaws wide.
It bit straight into the blazing sun.
Gulp.
Zayne’s Forbidden Spell was swallowed whole.
"What kind of monster is this?!"
Zayne felt his scalp go numb.
This was his first encounter with a high tier monster.
He never expected something this terrifying.
It had eaten a Forbidden Spell in a single bite.
After swallowing the spell, Cerberus’s eyes showed a disturbingly human mockery.
Then the third head opened its mouth.
A stream of thick green, foul smelling liquid sprayed toward Zayne.
Zayne frowned.
He sacrificed two kidneys, pushing his Agility to ten times its normal value.
He dodged hard to the side.
That green liquid was insanely corrosive.
Eva had already proven that firsthand.
Zayne had no intention of touching it.
The massive head tracked him, spraying nonstop.
Wherever the liquid passed, flowers, grass, and trees dissolved instantly.
Even the ground smoked as it was eaten away.
Zayne had just avoided the corrosive spray when he felt a violent rush of air behind him.
He spun around.
A massive black claw slashed toward him.
He did not dare block it.
He jumped sideways at full speed, barely avoiding the killing blow.
At that moment, Zayne understood.
Against a monster like this, hesitation meant death.
"Forbidden Spell Infernal Overdrive!"
Brilliant crimson flames erupted from Zayne’s body.
His life force burned violently.
Without Infernal Overdrive’s full stat amplification, he had no chance against Cerberus.
"You like swallowing things?"
Zayne raised his hand.
"I will make sure you choke."
Metallic energy surged from his body.
Golden sparks gathered in his palm, condensing rapidly.
A radiant golden spear took shape.
"Forbidden Spell Eternal Adamant!"
The spear shot forward like a meteor, ripping through the night.
Its momentum was unstoppable.
Eternal Adamant’s unique luster flowed along the shaft.
It looked capable of piercing anything.
Fear flickered in Cerberus’s eyes.
It was quickly replaced by ferocity. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞
The second head roared and spewed black flames, trying to block the attack.
But Eternal Adamant specialized in piercing power.
Its destructive range might not rival Worldbane Thunderfall.
Its penetration was unmatched.
The spear tore through the black flames.
It plunged straight into the second head’s mouth and deep into its throat.
A shrill, agonized scream echoed through the forest.
Cerberus’s massive body convulsed violently.
The pain was unimaginable.
The second head twitched for a moment.
Then it drooped lifelessly.
Another head was down.
Cerberus went berserk.
The first head, which had not attacked yet, erupted in fury.
It opened its mouth wide and released a strange black mist.
The aura was thick with decay and death.
It felt like the end of all things.
Where the mist passed, everything withered.
Flowers collapsed.
Leaves turned brittle and dead.
A terrified white rabbit fled blindly and ran straight into the mist.
In an instant, it collapsed.
Its body dried out completely.
Anyone hit by that would suffer the same fate.
Zayne’s eyes burned with anger.
"Rabbits are adorable. How dare you kill one."
"Fireball!"
Same spell.
But now Zayne had Infernal Overdrive’s full amplification.
The red gold sun that appeared this time was several times more terrifying.
The black mist evaporated the moment it got close.
The blazing sun continued forward, crashing toward Cerberus.
Cerberus roared and slammed its massive claw down.
Boom.
The blazing sun exploded apart.
But the claw was scorched black, releasing a strong burnt stench.
At the same time, Zayne appeared at Cerberus’s side.
"Forbidden Spell Eternal Adamant!"
Another golden spear formed instantly.
Against massive targets, Eternal Adamant was perfect.
It was impossible to miss.
This time, Zayne aimed at the third head.
The one that sprayed corrosive liquid.
Just as the spear was about to strike, something unbelievable happened.
The second head, which should have been dead, suddenly moved.
It snapped its jaws shut.
Clang.
It bit down on the flying golden spear.
Zayne froze.
He clearly remembered it.
That head had been pierced straight through the skull.
It should have been dead beyond doubt.
Yet in moments, the wound was completely gone.
The head looked perfectly fine.
"WTF?! It revived?!"
