## Chapter 206: Earth-Shattering Strike
The dazzling White Light, like an Elite Evolution, lasted for several minutes before gradually dissipating. After the White Light faded, the Sea of Skeletons within a radius of over ten meters completely vanished, leaving only the dozen or so glittering Gold Coins on the ground to speak of their former Existence.
And the Protagonist of this moment stood quietly within the empty circle. Its snow-white Body exuded immense Might, causing even the fearless Skulls to retreat in terror, not daring to take another step forward.
I stared blankly at Light Snow after its outburst. Compared to before the outburst, its Physique hadn't changed much. Only its eyes, which originally carried the gloomy Aura of a Ghost Wolf, now faintly revealed a layer of light azure. Its Presence was even sharper. Wherever those eyes, naturally imposing without anger, swept, the Skulls scattered and retreated. The innate Intimidate Ability of the Snow Wolf King caused the Monsters to panic. If not for the pushing and crowding from behind, the nearby Skulls might have already fled.
"Hiss ha—"
Although Radament across from us was also Intimidated by Light Snow 's Might, it was a Mini-Boss after all and quickly recovered. Seeing its subordinates looking timid one by one, it couldn't help but let out a Roar.
"Crack, crack..."
Under Radament's sharp and eerie hiss, the Skulls seemed to find their backbone. Their retreating Footsteps slowly stopped, and their lower jaws constantly opened and closed, making a sickening cracking sound.
"Hiss—"
Seeing its subordinates regain their spirits, Radament was satisfied, but it wasn't enough. It decided to pull out its ultimate Effort to show the Invaders the true Strength of the King of the Skeleton Scourges—Radament.
It slightly raised its Chest, took a deep breath, and then opened its mouth wide. A stream of black-green foul gas sprayed out from its mouth. Its Target wasn't us, but the Skulls in the Surroundings. The black-green gas column swept over these Skulls. Whether they were blood-red Burning Skulls or pitch-black Terror Skulls, their Bodies turned black-green like the foul gas. The originally dim twin Gaze in their empty eye sockets also turned eerie green, revealing a sense of deranged brutality.
"Crack crack—"
Any Skull corroded by the green seemed to go mad, swarming forward. Even the normal Skulls beside them, if they blocked their path, would be struck without hesitation by the Weapon in their hands.
What are Skulls? They are a type of Monster with relatively weak Strength, relying on collective Power to win. So, although their intelligence is very low, their Members are very united with each other. Now, however, they were turning their Weapons on their own companions. This kind of insane behavior was truly chilling.
These green Skulls that had lost their Reason. Their ultimate Target was still the position where Light Snow and I stood. And Radament continued to spray the black-green foul gas, turning batch after batch of Skulls incredibly insane.
Facing these mad Skulls charging forward as if their lives didn't matter. I focused my Energy again, preparing to cast Airdrop Encirclement. As things stood, only by eliminating Radament could we achieve Victory in this Battle. Although Light Snow 's outburst was unexpected, it didn't affect my decision.
However, at this moment, Light Snow 's Movement once again abruptly caused an Interruption to the words "Airdrop..." that I had just uttered.
It slowly lowered its Body, as if in slow motion. Its four paws spread slightly, the Claws on its toes protruding one by one, gripping the Ground firmly. The furry Tail behind it, like that of a Fox, stood straight up. It gently raised its Brain, took a deep breath, and assumed a majestic posture.
Watching Light Snow perform such a strange Action from the side, I was completely bewildered. Was it Light Snow 's competitive spirit acting up? Otherwise, why would it imitate Radament like that, making a Movement as if about to spray something?
However, the next moment, I immediately understood the Meaning of Light Snow 's strange Action. From its slightly parted massive mouth, White Light began to emerge, one stream, two streams... In just a brief instant, it emitted ten thousand rays of Glow, making it impossible to look directly at.
"Roar—"
Just as the insane black-green Skulls were less than a meter away from us, and those with longer Weapons were already fiercely Chopping down towards Light Snow and my Heads, Light Snow finally made its Movement. Its mouth suddenly opened wide. The White Light filling its mouth, so concentrated it had become a Liquid, seemed to find an outlet. Accompanied by its Roar, it condensed into a ball of Light nearly half a meter in diameter, then transformed into a beam of Light, leaving a straight Light trail in the Void as it shot towards Radament across from us.
"Crack crack—"
The White Light beam passed through the Sea of Skeletons in front as if entering an uninhabited land. Along its path, bone fragments flew everywhere, actually blasting open a Passage two meters wide, finally striking Radament's Chest.
"This is bad—"
Seeing the White Light beam land on Radament's Body, immediately erupting in incredibly dazzling White Light, I knew this was probably not the time to cheer. This scene was remarkably similar to the giant Energy Cannon I unleashed during my last Frenzy, just a few degrees less in Power.
But the Power of that Energy Cannon was such that even Kashya didn't dare touch it. Its Destructive Power was enough to blast a small mountain into a huge Crater. Even if it was a few degrees less, its Power could not be underestimated. I didn't have Light Snow 's four paws and Claws that could anchor to the Ground, so with foresight, I performed a Fierce Bear Pounce, making a spectacular full-contact intimate connection with the Ground with my entire Body.
"Boom—"
Just as I lay down on the Ground, a strong impact airflow scraped directly across my Back. Looking out of the corner of my eye, I saw the entire Central Area being ravaged by the violent airflow. The bewildered Skulls were like cotton, mercilessly thrown into Mid-air, or directly torn into pieces by the blade-like airflow, or swept away to who knows where. The Sewer, said to be able to withstand Meteor impacts, also shook violently. It was estimated that the Central Area of Lut Gholein City directly above was also experiencing a significant aftershock.
The Central Area of the Sewer wasn't large, and coupled with the blockage by the Monster Army, it was like a semi-sealed Underground room. It was easy to imagine that the Power of this not-so-small explosion in such an environment was even more prolonged and terrifying.
The violent airflow lasted for a while before gradually subsiding. I stood up and took a look, and couldn't help but be stunned by the scene before me. The place where Radament had been standing was blasted into a Crater over a meter deep and three meters in diameter. This was Ground reinforced by powerful Magic!
And centered around this, more than half of the Central Area was completely cleared, so clean there wasn't even a Single Point of Dust. Other areas, including the Passage we came through, were the complete opposite. They were piled high with stacks of Skulls, either shattered into pieces or half-dead and struggling. They had all been squeezed and piled against the Wall by the intense Storm, looking like a Bone Wall created by a Necromancer. However, most of the Bones in this Bone Wall were still alive, and their struggling Appearance looked a bit comical.
Even Light Snow , the perpetrator, was in a sorry state from its own attack. It probably didn't expect the Power of its blast to increase so much in such a semi-enclosed Underground room. Having miscalculated, it could only brace itself, gripping the Ground tightly with its four paws. After the explosion, its entire Body was forcibly scraped back several meters from its original position. Its four paws left over a dozen deep scratch marks on the Ground, and the originally smooth and soft white fur on its Body was blown into utter disarray. It looked as comical and cute as a giant, fluffy Scottish Sheepdog.
After taking in the scene after the explosion, I suppressed the confusion in my heart and looked across.
Where was Radament?
As a Minor Boss, no matter how terrifying the Power of Light Snow 's attack was, it couldn't possibly Instant Kill it, right? So where was it?
Relying on my sharp Gaze, I finally found its figure on the Wall... in the deepest part of the Central Area. This poor Mini-Boss was actually blasted into the Wall by Light Snow 's fierce shot, leaving a large pancake-shaped imprint on the Wall. Its shriveled, yellow Body was blasted black and charred, like a smoked rib.
Seeing Radament slowly crawl up from the Ground, shaking its Head, and then looking at the empty straight path, Light Snow and I exchanged glances, and the same thought was revealed in our eyes.
Kick them while they're down!!
This was an unchanging truth passed down through five thousand years of Chinese history, its practicality comparable to Sun Tzu's Art of War and the Six Teachings. Such a rare opportunity! If we waited for Radament to react and gather its Skeleton Army to defend itself again, Light Snow 's recent Effort would be wasted.
A Distance of over a hundred meters. With our Speed, we would arrive instantly. The faster Light Snow was the first to pounce with its entire Body, tackling the wobbling Radament, who had just managed to stand up, back onto the Ground. It bit and clawed at its Body desperately, seemingly filled with intense resentment.
"Damn it, Light Snow , get out of the way."
I (in Werebear Form) jumped up and brought my bent knees down hard onto Radament. Light Snow flinched and quickly jumped away. Being hit head-on by several tons of Weight was not a fun Matter.
"Thud—"
My knees landed precisely on Radament's Chest and Lower Abdomen. Accompanied by the sound of Bone shattering, its entire Body suddenly arched up, its lower jaw wide open, looking utterly in pain. If its internal organs hadn't already withered long ago, this blow would probably have made it vomit everything inside its Body.
Watching American wrestling wasn't for nothing. I felt pretty good about my imitation of that move. Should I do it again? Still not satisfied, I rubbed my Chin, swung my palm, and slapped Radament's Skull Brain a few more times.
This guy was probably truly enraged out of shame. Its mouth, which had just managed to close, opened again. Years of Battle Intuition immediately made me wary. I rolled over and jumped away. The green gas spraying out from Radament's mouth as if its life depended on it instantly submerged the spot where I had just been.
*Sweatdrop*, why does that Movement look so much like the advisor in "Flirting Scholar" who collapses in anger and keeps spitting blood?
Putting aside how high Light Snow 's and my Poison Resistance were, just the foul smell alone was enough to make us want to avoid it. Seeing the foul gas spread, Light Snow and I quickly covered our noses and retreated a few steps. Anyway, at such a close Distance, Radament was already fish on the chopping block; at most, it could only struggle for a few more seconds.
However, just because Light Snow and I were afraid didn't mean everyone was. Within the green mist, a slender Shadow suddenly drilled up from the Ground and bit fiercely towards Radament.
Damn, it's the Poison Creeper! I didn't expect it to join in. Having no sense of taste and being immune to Poison Damage, it completely ignored the erosion of the Poison Mist and tangled with Radament in the green smoke. However, Radament's Poison Mist was ineffective against the Poison Creeper, and the Poison Creeper's sharpest Poison Attack also couldn't do anything to Radament. If we let the two of them fight it out, they might not determine a Winner or Loser even after a day and a night.
Watching the thick mist gradually thin, Light Snow and I quickly held our noses and plunged in. A vine, a wolf, and a bear launched a destructive group beating on Radament.
"Hiss ha—"
When Radament hissed and took another deep breath, just as we thought it was about to spray Poison Mist again, a soft, light green gas emerged from its mouth. Its massive Body then weakly knelt down and fell to the Ground with a "Thump—", dropping a pile of glittering Items.
After Radament fell, I immediately canceled my Werebear Transformation and sat on the Ground, panting, without caring about my Appearance. Charging all the way through the Sea of Skeletons and then grappling with Radament in the Central Area for a long time, even a Barbarian known for their Stamina would be half-dead with exhaustion.
Light Snow was also panting heavily, sticking out its scarlet tongue. It was even worse off than me. Not only did it expend the same Vitality as I did, but that earth-shattering blast probably consumed a lot of its Strength. There's no such thing as getting something for nothing in this world. To cause great Destructive Power, you have to expend a lot of Energy. Energy conservation is a truth on any Plane.
Thinking of Light Snow 's miraculous white Energy blast, I couldn't help but immediately open Light Snow 's Attribute Panel to take a look, and finally understood what had happened to its Body...
