Chapter 446: Chapter 305 "Narrow Victory" (4K)
Time seemed to freeze at this moment.
The Goblin Prince stood upon the remnant apex of the mountain within his own domain, expanding into a giant.
In front of him, amidst the turbulent torrent, an even more colossal creature suddenly appeared.
It was a Skeletal Giant.
Its body was constructed from countless thick bones interwoven together, and around this skeletal body, a faint blue cold flame enveloped it. Behind the giant, a pair of tattered but equally huge Bone Wings stretched out.
The giant looked down, looming over the mountain summit.
In one hand, it tightly grasped a hammer as large as a meteor, and in the other, it wielded a huge sword with agility that belied its massive form. It swung the sword down.
"This is unreasonable!"
The Chain Hammer clanged, but it failed to smash the giant bone hand built of white bones. The Goblin Prince could only pull back the Chain Hammer by force to block the sword. But at the same time, the Skeletal Giant had already closed in, with Bone Swords protruding from its elbow, forehead, chest, knee joints... from every part.
The Skeletal Giant was as agile as its true form!
After all, if the Skeleton Giant Beast was such an inconvenient entity, there would be no sense in developing this skill.
It had upgraded the 'Skeleton Giant Beast' to a 'Skeletal Giant' a long time ago and was already adept at it.
It's okay not to use one's trump card, but one must never be without it.
And now, it was indeed being deployed.
The Skeletal Giant maneuvered the fog of bones, and after just a dozen or so exchanges, it broke through the Goblin Prince's defenses.
With the enhancement of the 'Wither King Bone,' these external armors, even if they were not truly King's Bone, were extremely sharp. Bone Spikes, Bone Swords, Bone Spears effortlessly pierced and tore through the layers of the Goblin's legendary rocky armor.
Armor fragments fell in rustling sounds.
The Mountainous Mech Armor, that the Goblin Prince had shaped, quickly diminished as well.
Boom—
The Rocky Giant burst apart, rings of earthy-yellow halos spread, contaminating the Skeletal Giant in front of it, causing the movements of the Skeletal Giant to gradually slow down.
The Goblin Prince flew out from the dust, and a swing of his Chain Hammer caused the skull of the giant to crack open.
Dead Bone surged out from the giant's skull, its pupils blazing with bright blue Soul Flames.
This was the moment for close combat, a fight to the death.
Legendaries rarely do this, after all, even Legendary Realm beings can die if their heads are chopped off or their hearts smashed. They usually opt for a more secure way of fighting, but... that doesn't mean they can't fight at close quarters.
The Goblin Prince, back in the day, had also emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
He did not retreat an inch.
He displayed the peak of his skills, surpassing even that peak.
He is, after all, a Legendary Realm existence! He had even fought in hand-to-hand combat with other Legendaries of the same tier!
Tear—
With a single palm strike, the Goblin Prince easily tore apart the armor of the black-armored warrior before him. The Rare Level Treasure Armor before the Goblin Prince was scarcely thicker than a sheet of cardboard.
He regained the confidence that came with being a Legendary Realm being...
Dang—
The hand glowing with a yellow halo stamped on the white skeletal structure, exquisitely clear as white jade, as if striking the sturdiest primeval rock. The earthy yellow stream of energy shattered the entire black armor and even penetrated through the armor and bone structure, creating a muddy yellow energy river behind the Skeleton strongman.
However, the Skeletal strongman, who had taken the hit head-on, had its clear white bones merely slightly cracked.
Cracks as fine as a hairline appeared.
And within the blink of an eye, these small cracks had all healed, leaving the entire set of white jade bones as smooth as new.
As if the damage just now was nothing but an illusion.
As if the shattering of the Treasure Armor was merely the release of some seal.
As if...
This is too unreasonable!
Dead Bone, having endured this strike, finally let out a sigh of relief.
Too dangerous! Too dangerous!
It had taken a super huge risk, akin to facing death, to endure this blow from the Goblin Prince, just so that...
Click—
Dead Bone, having brushed past the Goblin Prince, took advantage of the gap when he withstood the blow and stabbed the legendary being with a light Bone Finger.
Before this Bone Finger thrust, Dead Bone had executed several feint attacks.
Bone Whip, Bone Spike danced in the air;
Wailing Death slashed down;
And as the Bone Finger was thrust, the blue Soul Flames in Dead Bone's pupils blazed brightly, and a strand of golden light burst forth from the depths of its sea of consciousness.
It was as if golden threads appeared out of thin air, entangling the Goblin Prince's limbs and soul consciousness.
King's Might! Materialized Entanglement!
And with it, the withering quality of the Wither King Bone, which meant imminent death upon contact, burst forth instantly.
The Goblin Prince instinctively sensed danger, and by the time he realized something was amiss, he no longer had the will to resist. By the time he came to his senses, the Bone Finger had already pierced through the shining armor on his body, sinking three inches in, piercing his skin and penetrating his muscles.
The stab was shallow.
At first glance, it seemed like a minor scratch, but there was a chill seeping into the marrow, spreading from the wound deep into his soul.
This was a dagger from the deepest abyss!
The Goblin Prince's flesh instantly decayed, as if he had been a corpse left to wither for countless years, and this decay spread rapidly throughout his body.
Spurt—
He severed his entire shoulder along with his right arm. Gushing blood and fragments of flesh flew out, mixed with an unpleasant stench of decay.
Even though he acted decisively, the withering Power of Decay still crept bit by bit into his body from the severed stump.
The Goblin Prince's face turned ashen, the fear of death crept over him, and his body turned cold. No longer caring for any Legendary dignity, he harnessed the Power of Heaven and Earth and sped away toward the direction of the Jackal Man tribe.
