The Strongest Ultimate Skill
What the hell is this?
Before them stood a colossal rock statue, seven or eight meters tall. Water flowed between the statue's limbs and trunk, acting as a link, like the statue's veins and blood. In the statue's hands were two giant swords formed from condensed flames, while a gale swirled around it, forming a Wind Barrier.
Is this a Transformer? Its design looks... inexplicably weird.
Xiao Yu inwardly complained, when suddenly the giant statue spoke.
Amalarui Ferdinand (Elemental Avatar): "I should thank you, it was you who gave me this inspiration. Although the Chaos Elemental cannot be forged yet, at least I can fuse the power of four elements and make them work for me. Now I am the avatar of the elements, your lives end here, all of you die!"
The flaming sword slashed down suddenly, cutting right through Xiao Yu's body.
With a whoosh, -2872! The damage was even higher than the previous Balor, and even comparable to the power of the previous Pyroblast. But thankfully, it was still manageable.
But Amalarui immediately slashed down with his second sword, dealing another two thousand damage. After transforming, this guy's attack frequency was frighteningly high. With his two swords slashing in quick succession, Xiao Yu's health plummeted.
Azathoth (Water Elemental Prince): "Heal me! Heal me now!"
"No, the damage is too high, I can't keep up."
Five or six healers poured all their energy into healing him, their healing skills flashing almost non-stop, but they still couldn't stop Xiao Yu's health from dropping. His health, which had recovered to 100,000, plummeted to 60,000 or 70,000 in the blink of an eye, and showed no signs of stopping.
Esmehalda (Dalaran Mystic): "Quick, the BOSS has Enrage! Everyone, go all out!" Usually, BOSSes only Enrage when their health drops to around 20% or 30%, but the BOSS in front of us is dealing too much damage, so Enrage is the only explanation.
Unfortunately, the damage output on this side also encountered problems. The hunter's arrows were all blown away by the Wind Barrier, and only Arcane Shot could deal any damage. The hunter's pets had all been killed by the demons, so the damage output on this side was reduced by a third.
As Xiao Yu and Amalarui's health both decreased, Xiao Yu's health decreased at a significantly faster rate.
Xiao Yu was also anxious. This team didn't bring a tank, and the hunters' pets that could withstand attacks had all been killed by the demons. If he fell, it would be an immediate team wipe. It seemed he would have to use his ultimate move.
Flame Hurricane! Before he could even cast his spell, his opponent suddenly used a Spellsteal, taking away his magic.
(Holy crap, they can still Spellsteal in this form? Are we even supposed to live?)
Flames swirled and ignited around Amalarui, and the surrounding adventurers began to retreat one by one. But Xiao Yu couldn't retreat; he could only endure the flames. The fiery hurricane lasted for ten seconds, burning away more than 20,000 of Xiao Yu's health. As a result, Xiao Yu's health was reduced to only about 30%.
(It's over, it's really all over -- no, there's still a chance!)
A thought suddenly flashed through Xiao Yu's mind, and in the midst of his busy schedule, he sent a message to Esmehalda.
"Go all out and get its health below 20% before I die. I have a way to finish it off in one hit."
Esmehalda was stunned when she saw the text message. Even with only 20% health, Amalarui still had over 100,000 HP. How could she be instantly killed? It was too unbelievable. However, at this point, she could only trust the other party. It could be said that the key to this battle was whether Azathoth, the Water Elemental, could survive. If he fell, they would definitely lose. Therefore, Esmehalda had no choice. On the other hand, every time Xiao Yu gave her advice, it was ultimately proven to be correct, which also gave her a strange confidence in Xiao Yu.
Esmehalda (Dalaran Mystic): "Everyone, fire with all your might! Don't hold back! Use every potion, spell scroll, and spell you have! Don't hold back any of your ultimate abilities, unleash them all!"
At her command, the adventurers under her command reacted immediately. The hunters all changed into precious magical arrows. These special arrows could deal the same Arcane damage as regular attacks, making them very useful against monsters that were immune to physical attacks or had high defense. However, they were naturally extremely expensive.
One by one, the mages activated Mana Overdraft (increases spell power by 50% and casting speed by 50% for 30 seconds. After 30 seconds, the mages enter a state of mana depletion, unable to use any mana-intensive skills for 1 minute).
Once the ultimate skill was activated, the DPS firepower instantly increased by nearly double. However, these ultimate skills were originally intended to be used only when entering the Execute phase, but they were all used at this moment, which was undoubtedly a huge gamble.
Xiao Yu unleashed Frostfire Bolt while simultaneously monitoring the health balance of both sides.
My own health is 25%, Amalarui's health is 35%.
My own health is 20%, Amalarui's health is 31%.
My own health is 15%, Amalarui's health is 27%.
My own health is 10%, Amalarui's health is 23%.
My own health is 5%, Amalarui's health is 19%.
Okay, now!
At this moment, his health had dropped to the red line, and his entire element was teetering on the brink of collapse, seemingly on the verge of exploding at any moment. If he were to take a few more hard hits from the opponent, he would probably be dead.
At this moment, both the hunter's magic arrows and the mage's Mana Overdraft were almost exhausted. Although it seemed like they had more people than people, they were actually in a desperate situation. However, Xiao Yu knew that he still had a chance of victory, as long as his verbal attacks could work.
He suddenly stopped attacking and burst into laughter. At this moment, his inner chuunibyou (adolescent delusions of grandeur) reached its limit, and he spoke in a domineering tone.
Azathoth (Water Elemental Prince): "Very well done. I didn't expect you to push me to this point. It seems I have no choice but to use my strongest skill."
"Flame Hurricane!" He started casting; this spell requires five seconds to channel.
His gaze remained fixed on his opponent. He had been silently counting in his mind; the cooldown of the Spell Seizure skill was 120 seconds. He knew his opponent would definitely use this skill whenever they had the chance. He had been counting since using Flame Hurricane, and 117 seconds had passed so far, leaving three seconds—enough.
3-2-1! Sure enough, the moment he uttered the number 1 in his mind, he saw Amalarui extend his left hand towards him, a habitual gesture for casting Spellsteal. Now was the time.
The next second, he abruptly canceled the Flame Hurricane, which was already halfway through its cast, and immediately activated the Body-Burning Blast skill.
Body-Burning Blast: Detonates the elemental power within the body, dealing fire damage to surrounding enemies equal to their remaining health. This damage gradually decreases as the explosion intensifies. Unlocked when health drops below 20%.
At the same time, Amalarui clenched his fist in the air and used the Spellsteal on him.
A sudden flash of fire appeared on Xiao Yu's body, and he felt the elemental power within him Boiling for a moment, as if a powder keg was about to be ignited. But the next second, that Boiling sensation vanished abruptly, as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over it, and it returned to stability. At the same time, a strange light appeared on Amalarui's body.
Amalarui Ferdinand (Elemental Avatar): "Haha, so this is the strongest skill you're going to use? It certainly looks powerful. Wait, why, no, what's going on here?"
Amalarui's smug smile froze instantly. He felt the power within him igniting, the surging elemental energy erupting uncontrollably like a nuclear bomb undergoing fission.
