Novel Full Chapter 886 Raid Boss Battle [Part 2]
Queen Rhiannon didn’t know whether she should laugh at her enemies’ folly because, in her opinion, only a Demigod could fight a Demigod.
The only one who could potentially threaten her was probably the Wicked Queen Slime, who was a peak Calamity-Ranked Monster, only a step away from becoming a Demigod herself.
But to those that had fought in the Great War, which was written down in the history books as the “Great Abyssal War,” a Demigod wasn’t impossible to defeat.
Not all Demigods were the same, just like the Gods that once graced Elysium.
A God of Healing’s status as a God wouldn’t make them adept at fighting. However, when it came to healing, they were second to none.
These were the things that the Elysians and Solaians had discovered after fighting against these creatures, and because of that, they had developed ways to fight them.
“I guess it’s time for me to make you understand what it means to fight against a Demigod!” Queen Rhiannon declared as she unleashed her aura, making the Satyrs on the ground tremble.
“Go ahead,” Piccoro stated. “Knock yourself out.”
As soon as the Dragon Born finished speaking, he opened up his Draconic Wings and took to the skies in order to fight against the Succubus Queen.
The Saint unleashed a barrage of dark fireballs at his target.
Queen Rhiannon didn’t even bother dodging and simply created a purple barrier around her, blocking Piccoro’s attacks effectively.
Lilian, who was on the ground, raised her hand toward the Succubus Queen and snapped her fingers.
A second later, a beam of green light shot upward, aimed at her target.
Queen Rhiannon held her ground and once again allowed her barrier to block all attacks. She wanted to make the Elysians understand that in the face of absolute strength, all tricks are meaningless!
However, the moment the green beam of light hit her barrier, cracks immediately appeared and spread on it, which made the Succubus Queen’s eyes widen in shock.
“Shield Breaker,” Lilian said with an amused look on her beautiful face. “Is this the first time you’ve seen this skill? It just proves that you’re just a frog in the well.”
Before Queen Rhiannon could even react to Lilian’s ridicule, a flaming dark spear collided with her barrier, increasing the size of the cracks in its surface.
Knowing that her barrier wouldn’t hold any longer, she immediately dodged to the side, allowing the flaming dark spear to harmlessly pass by her.
A second later, she heard a snapping of fingers once more, which made her instinctively fly sideways, but it was futile.
Dozens of magic missiles flew in her direction and followed her wherever she went.
“You insects!” Queen Rhiannon shouted before unleashing several purple rays of light that clashed with Lilian’s Magic Missiles, nullifying them completely.
But, before she could even take a breather, Lux, Eiko, Asmodeus, and their clones, all pointed their fingers in her direction and used a spell that was meant to fight against Boss Monsters.
“””Mana Drain!”””
When Lux had broken through and became a Ranker, one of the skills that received an upgrade was the skill, Mana Drain.
It was now Mana Drain [SSR], and its effects were still the same before it got an upgrade. The only difference was its range.
In the past, Mana Drain absorbed 5% of the target’s maximum Mana for five seconds.
It also had a range of 20 meters, and had a 30 second cooldown, making it very effective against creatures that heavily relied on magical attacks.
However, after being upgraded to Mana Drain [SSR], its range had drastically increased to a thousand meters, allowing Lux to drain the mana of their target from a great distance.
Lux and Asmodeus had three clones each, while Eiko had five.
In a span of five seconds, they managed to effectively drain 55% of Queen Rhiannon’s mana, catching the Succubus Queen by surprise.
Out of shock, she blanked out and moved on instinct, momentarily forgetting her reasoning, and unleashed one of her strongest offensive spells at the Half-Elf and his subordinates.
“Nether Flare!”
Hellish Crimson Flames descended from the sky as if wanting to turn everything on the ground into a sea of fire.
Only after Queen Rhiannon unleashed the spell did she remember that she needed Lux and Iris alive, making her feel panic.
Just as she was cursing herself for getting carried away, Gaap raised both of his palms in an attempt to block the attack.
A moment later, two gigantic hands appeared several meters above him and stood firm like a wall, meeting the Succubus Queen’s attack head-on.
An earth-shaking explosion reverberated in the surroundings, sending hellish flames flying in every direction.
The Satyrs cried out in shock and tried to flee for their lives, but some of them were hit by the stray flames, igniting their bodies into a blaze.
Before their bodies turned to ashes, Blackfire appeared and swallowed them all. As long as they still had a body and a soul, Blackfire could still revive them, adding them to its Master’s Animated Undead Army.
When the Hellish Flames finally disappeared, Queen Rhiannon felt relieved, but at the same time, her annoyance peaked.
She originally thought that she could easily crush her opponents, capturing Lux and Iris before bringing them back to her castle.
“Just what do you think you’re looking at?” Piccoro sneered as he unleashed countless Dark Flame Spears at the Succubus Queen, who had remained stationary after unleashing her powerful attack.
“Scram!” Queen Rhiannon shouted as she waved her hand, creating countless purple beams of light, fending off Piccoro’s attacks.
Again she heard the annoying spell that had made her unleash a powerful attack in the first place.
“””Mana Drain!”””
Lux had always known that this skill was a pain in the arse for magical-type monsters. However, never in his life did he think that he’d be using this skill against a Demigod.
He knew that most of his spells wouldn’t even scratch Queen Rhiannon’s defenses, but Mana Drain was different.
It was a skill that would make those who specialized in Magic cough blood out of anger and frustration.
To make matters worse, Lux’s Undead Army had started to join the offensive barrage, forcing Queen Rhiannon to dodge relentlessly while flying in the sky.
The Elemental Arrows of the Nightstalker.
The Stone Throws of the Jade Golem.
The Necrotic Attacks of the Lich Revenants.
The Poison Sprays of the Doomsday Gargoyles.
Originally, Queen Rhiannon could easily face these attacks head-on even if she were to stand still.
However, she had greatly underestimated the abilities of her opponents, which jeopardized her offensive and defensive abilities.
Ampelos and the other surviving Satyrs couldn’t believe what they were seeing. They originally thought that all of them were going to be turned to ash due to how powerful the Succubus Queen was.
However, as the battle dragged on, they were starting to think that Lux and his team might just be able to beat the uncontested Ruler of the 13th Floor, through their impeccable teamwork and specialties.
Queen Rhiannon gritted her teeth in anger as she unleashed a barrage of low-level spells at the Halfling who had blocked her skill, Nether Flare.
As a Demigod who prided herself on her powerful magical attacks, she found herself reeling in shock after realizing that the one that blocked one of her strongest offensive spells was only of the Apostle Rank.
This made Queen Rhiannon question herself if she had misread Gaap’s rank, but after appraising him, while dodging the relentless rain of attacks that were being fired in her direction, she confirmed that the Halfling was truly a Grade-A Apostle.
‘Just what is going on here?!’ Queen Rhiannon thought as she continued to fire countless purple orbs at the ground, hoping that one of them would hit the Halfling, whose main role was to defend his comrades from her concentrated attacks.
Although her Mana had been drained earlier, she possessed a powerful Mana Regeneration ability, which was one of the best among the Abyssal Lords.
Unfortunately, even with this advantage, the only thing she could use at the moment were low-ranking spells in great numbers.
Even so, each of these spells contained the might of a Demigod.
If one of the Satyrs were to be hit by her bombardment, they would find their bodies littered with holes due to how powerful these low-ranking spells were.
But, no matter what she did, her spells didn’t reach her intended target.
If she only knew that the one blocking her spells was the Indestructible Golem of Destruction, she would have definitely changed her tactics to something more practical.
Unfortunately, she had no idea, and because of this, she was unable to land a decisive blow on the weak creatures, who decided to fight her as a group.
