Who Designed This Underworld Dungeon?-Chapter 928 - 605: Dragon Ascension, Iaido, Aggis!

This Curse Frog really let him raise it into something remarkable!

The Monsters in the Sain Dungeon appear exactly as they are inside the dungeon, with no changes unless some City Lord alters them.

However, once they leave the dungeon and come into contact with the strange things outside, they may undergo unknown changes.

And when adventurers bring these altered monsters back into the Sain Dungeon, Gong Qiying can still receive the data on these monsters!

As the City Lord, he was surprised to discover this since dungeon monsters in the past never stayed outside long enough to mutate, so such situations naturally didn't occur.

But no matter how you look at it, this is a good change, representing that as long as Sain Dungeon lets monsters out, there's the possibility of updating the monsters to keep the dungeon lively.

Therefore, Gong Qiying is quite supportive of adventurers dropping Elf Balls all over the dungeon.

Unfortunately, people seem to lack interest in nurturing monsters and prefer the straightforward battles inside the dungeon, making Gong Qiying forget to promote Elf Balls, which keeps this feature tepid.

Now, it's good enough that Roger is trying hard to promote it out of love.

"I just hope you don't let him get near me," Steeran said quietly; elves are naturally unable to tolerate ugly things.

After some joking around and comic relief, they finally adjusted the team atmosphere and, based on the information provided by Jon, headed to the place that might host the Great Dragon Feast Church.

"My information is just a hypothesis and might not be accurate."

Jon habitually walked a bit ahead of others and said, "The place we're going is at the edge of the Ionian Swamp, where a White Dragon resides."

"White Dragon?"

That White Dragon's name is "Aggis, Entering Corruption," once lured by Uffie and others to attack the Red Lion City. Because its appearance is a ghastly white, it has been called the White Dragon.

But if you look closely, the details on Aggis might make someone throw up on the spot.

"If you run along the pathways made of these bricks and stones, Aggis is by the roadside heading towards Red Lion City, and it should be easy to spot."

Jon said, "According to my information, there's a rather large dilapidated structure next to it. Such ruins are common in Galide, but ones this large are rare."

"Someone tried to explore but never reached the edge of the building before Aggis would suddenly notice them, even Invisibility didn't work, forcing them to confront the dragon."

"So this time, I want you guys to keep Aggis occupied while I take the opportunity to explore inside that structure."

"Since Aggis seems to be guarding that place, it's definitely dragon-related, maybe related to the Dragon Feast."

These are all Jon's speculations, but for now, speculation is all they have.

Knowing their mission, after galloping a while on horseback with Torret, they found their target on the road's edge, Aggis.

Indeed, there was a prominently dilapidated structure beside Aggis.

The other party seemed to be sleeping, but Steeran's senses told her this creature was always keeping an eye on the situation there.

"Mr. Jon, please hide behind those rocks first. Once we start fighting, seize the chaos to get inside," Steeran advised.

Gazing at the dragon's head, Steeran instinctively wanted to draw her Left Bow.

But the aftereffects on her arm from overusing the Left Bow during the Battle Festival hadn't completely disappeared, so she paused and eventually chose her regular Big Bow.

"Aggis is peculiar. If you approach the structure, it will wake up immediately, but if the target is not the structure but it, it would stay asleep until you attacked it," Jon said his last words before hiding behind the rock.

"Is that so?"

Hearing this, Danya suddenly got excited, leaving a "one moment" on the run with his horse, and returned a few minutes later excitedly with blood on him, and took a closer look.

The blade of his Tachi strapped to his back had turned slightly red.

He looked at his companions with a pleading gaze; everyone showed a helpless smile and nodded.

So, Danya drew his Tachi, crept silently close to Aggis, and true enough, the dragon did not wake.

Thinking about what he was going to do next made his hand tremble slightly, finally taking a deep breath, he kicked Aggis on the head, and leaping high, shouted with boiling blood:

"Dragon Ascension!"

Dragon Ascension, one of the Tachi wielder's favorite techniques; using the monster's body to leap up and slice down, releasing the built-up power in the Tachi all at once to great stress-relief effect!

It has one small drawback.

"Roar?"

Kicked awake, Aggis immediately lifted its head.

"Boom!"

A sudden shadow fell from the sky in front of it, and the loud noise stunned it for a moment before looking down.

A man with a Tachi laid flat on the ground.

"I knew it...."

Steeran shook her head covering her face, bent her bow, shot an explosive arrow that exploded fiercely on Aggis's nose, and its roar soon followed from the smoke.

"Mr. Jon, now's your chance!"

She called out loudly in reminder, drawing several different types of arrows aimed at Aggis.

This corrupted dragon took to the sky, glaring at them viciously, appearing intent on swooping down!

"Let me handle it!"

Danya wiped the nosebleed, got up, and gracefully posed in the Iaido stance directly facing Aggis. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

"Even if Dragon Ascension failed, my Iaido has never once lost!"

Iaido, one of the core selling points of the Tachi weapon; when timed perfectly during an enemy's attack and performing an Iaido Slash, if the timing, force, and angle are all just right, it can directly counter the enemy's attack, not only achieving the effect similar to a weak Bounce Back but also protecting the user!

Executing a successful Iaido brings immeasurable delight!

For this reason, the peculiar looking Tachi weapon quickly surged in popularity among adventurers, becoming the forest area's most beloved and widespread weapon.

"Come on, Aggis!"

Danya let out an inspiring roar at the Flying Dragon!

"Roar!"

Aggis opened its mouth wide, red fog rolling inside, and at the moment Danya's blade gleamed and the Iaido engaged fiercely—

Miscalculating, Aggis didn't swoop but rather breathed out red fog; yet amidst this circumstance, the shimmering blade cleaved through the enveloping red fog!

Danya broke through unscathed, striking a chic gesture to sheathe his blade, a smile easing over his lips.

"Did he really succeed with the Iaido?" Huynh looked in disbelief, but soon showed a genuine smile, glad for his friend's success.

"Well done, Danya!" Steeran did not withhold her praise.

Danya turned, smiling, giving them the thumbs up.

Then stumbled before collapsing.

The cheering suddenly paused.

If this were a game, perhaps big words would appear over him:

[Crimson Corruption!!!]
