I Have a Sailing Game-Chapter 317 - 209: Lava Legion, Buck Demon Serpent
[Quality: Lord]
[Level: 29]
[Tier: Extraordinary (Apostle)]
[Explanation: The Buck Demon Serpent was once a powerful general, a major figure in the Lava Legion, but it was gravely injured in a fierce war and was bound here.]
Defeated general? Lava Legion?
Rogel furrowed his brow slightly.
It seems this fellow was originally supposed to be a general of a big power?
Moreover, after being defeated, its strength fell from Apostle to Extraordinary.
Who was it bound here by?
Secret Organization?
"This place can be used to incubate the Dragon Egg," Uvie Muzhe said, "but it looks like you’ll have to deal with this guy first."
"Be a bit careful; there are special rules here as well,"
It reminded Rogel.
Rogel nodded, without a doubt, the treasure location indicated by the Magma Treasure Map (Three) was here.
And this [Buck Demon Serpent] was the monster used by the Secret Organization to guard the treasure.
After pondering for a moment, Rogel returned above to join Yas.
After a brief preparation, the two headed into the battlefield below.
[You entered a special area.]
[In this area, you will be subject to special rule restrictions.]
Once the prompt appeared, the previously seen paper reappeared, explaining the special rules to Rogel and Yas.
[Battle amid the flames, slaughter the Buck Demon Serpent, and you will receive abundant rewards.]
[Intruders in this place will have their Tier Power suppressed, and all special abilities except for close combat and weapon-related combat skills will be restricted.]
[If unqualified, return the way you came.]
This time, the special rules again restricted a large amount of Rogel’s magic.
But, the only difference was that they did not restrict Rogel’s swordsmanship and corresponding combat skills.
In this situation, Rogel did not immediately launch an attack on the Buck Demon Serpent.
He wanted to attempt communication with it.
Perhaps he could obtain some information about the Secret Organization from its mouth.
However, as soon as Rogel approached the Buck Demon Serpent, a sudden change occurred.
The Buck Demon Serpent’s three heads suddenly lifted up, two snake heads coldly flicking their tongues, while flames roared within the central skull.
"Roar——"
The Buck Demon Serpent let out a frenzied roar, struggling violently as the chains clattered.
Bam bam bam!
Surrounding magma also began to riot, constantly gushing forth.
Rogel shouted twice, trying to communicate.
However, the Buck Demon Serpent let out a strange, mocking laugh.
"The truth learned by the dying is meaningless."
"Kill me, and I’ll tell you the answer..."
To Rogel’s surprise, it spoke in human language!
"Roar——"
The Buck Demon Serpent roared again, its deafening sound echoing throughout the volcano, and the chains on it began to crack, emitting a heavy sound.
Clang!
The last chain exploded as well.
Seeing this, Rogel sighed inwardly, exchanged a glance with Yas beside him, and drew the Brocade Wood, launching a synchronized attack on the Buck Demon Serpent.
To the two advancing figures, the Buck Demon Serpent seemed unbothered, reaching out to grip the hilt of the broken sword on its chest.
Meanwhile, before Rogel and Yas, magma surged as several magma creatures formed, wielding twin blades, met their assault.
In an instant, blade light and shadow of fists intertwined.
The strength of these two magma creatures was unexpectedly no weaker than the previous Blazing Striker!
The Buck Demon Serpent did not even look at the two before it, sternly pulling with its sword-wielding hand.
Splash!
Magma-like blood sprayed out, igniting fierce flames upon landing on the ground.
The Buck Demon Serpent gently caressed the broken sword in its hand.
Wherever its palm crossed, the gaps in the sword were filled by the surging magma.
In no time, a Magma Greatsword was formed.
Then, with a swift swing of its left arm, an almost body-sized magma arm appeared, slamming heavily into the ground.
Meanwhile.
Rogel and Yas simultaneously disposed of the magma monsters before them.
Boom!
Just as that happened, the Buck Demon Serpent lifted its giant magma hand, spreading its palm toward the sky.
Countless hot magma instantly erupted like a volcanic explosion, splashing in all directions.
Yas raised the Wraith Shield in his hand in front of him.
While Rogel relied on his remarkable reaction speed to dodge these attacks.
Then, taking advantage of the opponent’s attacking gap, he fiercely slashed towards the Buck Demon Serpent.
With a swoosh, a white force rapidly flew towards the Buck Demon Serpent.
The Buck Demon Serpent crossed its sword to block.
However, the remaining sword qi still hit his body.
With a splat, his body trembled, a wound appeared on him, and magma-like blood flowed out.
Taking this opportunity.
Rogel and Yas decisively approached the Buck Demon Serpent, launching continuous attacks.
The Buck Demon Serpent raised its lava giant hand to fend off the attacks, occasionally swinging its magma giant sword with heavy blows.
But, amidst the battle.
The Buck Demon Serpent unexpectedly let out a laugh, a genuine laugh from his heart.
"Well done..."
As the Buck Demon Serpent spoke, his hands did not slow in the slightest.
"Hiss!"
The two snake heads on his shoulders extended from his body, relentlessly attacking Rogel and Yas, trying to bite them.
Clang!
The Brocade Wood was bitten by the Buck Demon Serpent’s snake head, leaving a notch.
As Rogel retreated, he blocked the attack of the magma giant sword effortlessly.
The Brocade Wood began to self-repair.
"Cut off the snake heads, or you won’t be able to harm me!"
The Buck Demon Serpent suddenly spoke in a cold voice.
He was actually revealing his weakness to Rogel and Yas!
Upon discovering the weakness, Rogel did not hesitate and swung his sword, severing a snake head.
The Buck Demon Serpent’s body shuddered intensely, losing balance, severely injured.
"Why?"
Rogel frowned and questioned.
"Why what?" The Buck Demon Serpent sneered, "I’m just a pathetic defeated dog, what’s there to be curious about?"
Boom!
Facing their high-intensity attacks, the Buck Demon Serpent’s body suddenly trembled, erupting with immense magma centered on itself.
The two had to swiftly retreat to avoid its fierce momentum.
After Yas found a chance to punch off a snake head.
The Buck Demon Serpent’s body changed again.
His black armor started to crack, with fierce flames blazing on his body.
His voice was tragic, seeming completely out of sync with his actions.
"How did you obtain extraordinary power..."
Rogel furrowed his brow, looking at Yas: "Do not attack for now, just avoid the attacks!"
Then, he turned to the Buck Demon Serpent and said: "Extraordinary Magic Potion."
"Magic Potion, huh, such a courageous choice..."
The Buck Demon Serpent muttered to himself.
His body movements did not stop for a moment.
After shedding the shattered armor, his whole body transformed into a monstrous entity made of magma.
He kept leaping, scattering magma, delivering heavy punches, attacking Rogel and Yas mercilessly.
The two struggled to dodge.
The Buck Demon Serpent, after a moment, regained composure and spoke calmly.
"I was once a human, living in a hell that resembled a pigsty and a cage..."
"I tried to gain power to resist them, but my struggles and roars seemed laughable to them..."
"So, I drank the Demon Snake Blood and joined the Lava Legion, a legion composed of rebels, intending to burn all cages and chains!"
His attack was relentless, even manic.
The flames burned fiercely.
Rogel and Yas kept dodging, exhausting their strength, but focused on listening to his words.
The Buck Demon Serpent let out a sorrowful laugh.
"But..."
"Just because their treasure needed a monster to guard... we became sacrifices!"
"We hadn’t even had a chance to swing our butcher’s knife at those chains, hadn’t even made our struggles and shouts heard by those people!"
"This world... is so absurd and laughable!"
"...Roar—"
At this moment, the Buck Demon Serpent’s body uncontrollably let out a roar, unable to continue speaking.
He then launched another fierce attack on Rogel and Yas, looking up at Rogel with eyes full of plea and struggle.
"...Kill me!"
"I should have died in war long ago!"
"Not standing here like a puppet on strings!"
"I am the Buck Demon Serpent fallen in battle of the Lava Legion... not a defeated general!"
His roar was so hoarse and resentful.
