Kill Stealing! Third Update

The Red Dragon has entered a dying state.

Soren's attacks became increasingly cautious; he even created some distance before disappearing back into the shadows. Only the Frost Giant and the Red Dragon remained, locked in a fierce struggle, as Soren needed to land the final blow. Only by ending the Red Dragon's Hit Points could he gain immense Slaughter Experience. The Slaughter Experience granted by the Red Dragon was the highest of all Dragon, conservatively estimated at about twice that of Adult White Dragon.

This is enough to raise Soren's Wizard Class Level by about two levels, or raise his Shadow Dancer class level by another level!

His Slaughter Experience Dragon Slayer is quite astonishing.

The Red Dragon's aura gradually weakened, and the Frost Giant was also in poor condition. Nearby Githyanki tried to come to the Red Dragon's aid, but they were all blocked by Goria. The Northern Witch clearly realized that if they could kill the Red Dragon first, the pressure on them would be greatly reduced, at least they wouldn't have to worry about the extremely dangerous Wing Buffet. The Northern Witch, who had activated ' Tenser's Transformation, ' even stood in front, wielding their staffs and engaging in close combat like high-ranking Warrior.

Once Wizard reaches this level, they are generally not so afraid of close combat!

Although she lost her ability to cast spells, other Witch nearby cast Abjuration Spell on her, and for a time she managed to hold off three or five Githyanki all by herself.

The opportunity Soren had been waiting for had finally arrived!

Red Dragon's skull, Soren leaped out, covering nearly 50 meters in the shadows, instantly appearing beneath the Red Dragon's neck. He then launched himself forward, thrusting his blade into the Red Dragon's massive eyeball. With a spurt of blood and the near-explosion of the Red Dragon's eyeball, Soren's Scimitar plunged almost halfway into the Red Dragon's brain. The Red Dragon's enormous body trembled, then violently shook its head.

Soren was certain he had pierced the Red Dragon's head, and possibly even damaged its brain.

The fact that the Red Dragon didn't die under these circumstances means only one thing: its incredibly strong Constitution Fortitude Save actually allowed it to withstand the lethality of this attack!

Damn it!

Soren hadn't expected his enemy to be so Hit Points. His body swayed in the air with the dragon's head, and he didn't have the strength to draw his Scimitar, Icetail. So he could only let go and let his body fall. At the same time, he gripped the Gith Silver Sword with both hands the moment he fell, and then, upon hitting the ground, he leaped up and slashed at the Red Dragon's neck with both hands.

Clang!

With his Gith Silver Sword stuck in the Red Dragon's neck, Soren's Sword Momentum: Decapitation was unable to sever the Red Dragon's neck as he was not in Change Shape Slayer form.

Large amounts of scalding Dragon Blood spilled out.

This attack seemed to have dealt another severe blow to the Red Dragon. Even though there was still no fatal penalty, the Red Dragon's Hit Points was gradually waning. Its struggling body grew weaker and weaker until it finally collapsed with a thud, its head falling limply to the ground. Scalding Dragon Blood splattered all over Soren's body; the Dragon Blood, far hotter than that of the White Dragon, seemed to be cooking him alive. Soren could even feel his skin cracking, as if he had fallen into Magma.

"Unleash your Sword Momentum: Decapitation!"

"You dealt 42 points of critical damage to the target!... Decapitation failed!... You have successfully slain the Adult Red Dragon!..."

"Extracting the target's Soul Energy!..."

"You've gained some Slaughter Experience!..."

A wave of scorching heat flowed through Soren's body.

His Slaughter Experience gave him the ability to level up his class again, but he didn't have the energy to do so yet, because he really felt like he had fallen into Magma.

He's hot!

It's so hot, it feels like I'm being roasted on a fire!

The searing pain was almost unbearable even for Soren's will; he couldn't help but groan in agony, his entire body trembling as he knelt on the ground. Flames burned within him—real flames, flames fueled by the Red Dragon Blood, flames from the heart of the Red Dragon. Soren felt as if he were on fire; his Hit Points was rapidly decreasing, and if this continued, he might be burned to a crisp.

The Dragon Blood Baptism seems to have failed!

Despite Soren's Constitution and willpower, there were signs that he might not be able to withstand the baptism of the Red Dragon Blood.

Finally, he seemed to remember something.

Soren staggered as he rushed to the dragon's head, then drew his Scimitar, Icetail. A chilling aura filled the air, and the flames on Soren's body seemed to awaken Icetail's self-awareness, causing it to automatically extinguish any nearby flames. The Red Dragon Fire on Soren's body gradually subsided, leaving him almost unrecognizable, his skin a charred color. It was unclear whether he had completed the Dragon Blood Baptism, as this was merely Soul Projection.

A row of documents appeared:

"You have undergone the [Dragon Blood Baptism] ritual!..."

"You have received a partial power boost!... You have inherited some of the Dragonkind's abilities!..."

"Baptism successful."

"You have gained the additional background Feat [Dragon Blood Baptism Lv2]!..."

"Dragon Blood Baptism Lv2 [Special Feat]: You successfully slayed a fully grown Red Dragon. After this Dragon Slayer, you underwent a second Dragon Blood Baptism. This baptism strengthened your body, allowing you to inherit some of the Red Dragon's abilities. The Dragon Blood made you Toughness, and you inherited some of the most powerful Constitution of the Chromatic Dragon — the Red Dragon. Simultaneously, due to the effects of the Red Dragon Blood, you permanently gained 10 points of Fire Resistance." [Natural Armor +1, Toughness +2, Fire Resistance +10.]

(Note: Because the Dragon Blood Baptism is performed in Soul Projection state, some Dragonkind abilities cannot be obtained.)

We finally defeated the Red Dragon.

Soren slowly stood up. He now looked like he had suffered level 10 burns and was basically unrecognizable.

However, his aura was quite astonishing!

Having just successfully Dragon Slayer, his energy and spirit had reached their peak. He felt like a sword that had been hidden for ten years, ready to be drawn in a single day. His severely burned face did not affect his aura at all; on the contrary, it made him even more dangerous and deadly!

This kind of momentum.

Normally, this would feel dangerous and repulsive, but in Goria's eyes, it represents a sense of security.

It gave her a sense of security as long as Soren hadn't fallen.

It was just like the time she encountered the followers of the God of Hunt; Soren gave her the same feeling she was experiencing now, but this time it was much stronger and more intense!

At that moment, she couldn't help but tremble slightly; it was a feeling she couldn't describe.

She got wet. (To be continued~^~)
