Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System-Novel

Chapter 457: Against The Spider Queen

-----

We were suddenly swarmed by a massive amount of spiders made out of shadows! And it was indeed quite creepy and disgusting. But we perseverated like the good fighters we are, and moved forward valiantly.

The massive amount of spiders the spider queen made were all made of magic, so it wasn't so bad. Although despite being made of magic, they coordinated like real spiders swarming you, and had sharp jaws a deadly venom to inject us with. But I was mostly immune to it, and Skadi and Uller were not even capable of being poisoned, so all of that was for nothing.

I swung my two weapons, encompassing them in my Mana Aura and releasing powerful blasts of icy winds. However, what greeted me as I slay the massive group of spiders made of magic was eight gigantic eyes flashing with crimson-red light…

FLASH!

The powerful light reached to me like invisible rays, all eight eyes suddenly began to put their effects on motion over my body, one of them put deadly poison on my very bloodstream, another paralyzed my muscles, the other lowered my health regeneration, another one slowed me down as if gravity had turned several times higher, and even another of them began to slowly turn me into stone.

Wow, so this is what it felt to be inflicted with status effects. In my life I had not even suffered any of them before, but this was rather disturbing. It was somehow capable of piercing through my status effect resistances rather well, however, that was it. I had an immortal body, the poison could flow all it wanted but it wouldn't do much anyways, the paralysis in my muscles didn't lasted longer because I kept destroying my own muscles and forming them again at a mere thought, my hp not recovering wasn't a problem because it would always do anyways, slowing myself down didn't worked because I simply forced myself to move even if it broke my body apart, and the petrification was of now use because I just constantly cut off the petrified areas.

Of course, such a far-fetched method can only be used by yours truly, anyone else trying to do this would easily perish to this powerful ability, this is why I had to do it myself and nobody else, I feared that if anyone else were to try doing this, they would surely and most likely die, without any way of being able to defend.

However, now that I was tanking it all myself, I rushed forward, and infused Skadi and Uller with lots of Mana, firing them like projectiles towards the Spider, alongside a series of other weapons I was able to summon at will after I devoured them. Although I had stopped being able to get any more skills this way, as if I had reached my quota of how many skills, I cold get out of eating weapons that I could summon through the skill later on.

Nonetheless they were a good dozen, spears, axes, blades, even a shield, all of them were summoned with lots of mana, which made them inherently very powerful. Firing them with my wind magic was also great, they flew incredibly fast, reaching their target in a flash and piercing through its eight bloody eyes, all at once!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

"GRYYYYAAAAGGH…!"

The spiders Evil Eyes quickly deactivated as I was given some more freedom of movement. The weapons easily nullified the effects of the evil eyes by simply attacking the damn eyes and bursting them into little pieces. However, I quickly realized the eyes were trying to regenerate back at an incredible speed. The spider was using its fast regeneration ability to easily bring her eyes back on the show. She really relied on them a lot. Was she lazy to fight by herself?

However, the weapons didn't budge, but they were being pressured by her claws which were trying to take them out of her eyes.

And then, I smiled maliciously as the spider realized that its agony had yet to end. I decided to detonate my weapons which I had summoned, as powerful explosions ensued, while Skadi and Uller also detonated themselves at my whim!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"GRYYYAAAAAEEEEEHH…!"

Indeed! All eight weapons exploded into pieces as the eyes of the spider were no more, they couldn't even regenerate if they were turned to ashes, right? Even more, the entire head was horrendously damaged, but I didn't knew how it was still going on. The spider queen was still alive?!

"GRAAAAAAAHHH…!"

The monstrous beast rushed forward towards me, catching me with its gigantic body and using a strong body slam to hit me into the ground. A second after its entire body exuded a deadly red aura, Berserk Mode. And it used this boost to use its legs rapidly, piercing through my body and trying to tear me apart.

However, I wasn't really an ice giant to begin with.

BOOM!

In an instant, I exploded into ice smoke and unleashed my true dragon form, a monstrous gigantic being with two pairs of wings and a long snake-like body, there were even six pairs of limbs now and a massive skull-like face. My scales were made compact and merged into a natural metallic armor.

"GROOOARRR!"

Using my true form I leaped over the spider, this was going to be a kaiju fight, bitch!

I began using my claws to slash through its hard exoskeleton, managing ot grab a leg and break it!

CRACK!

"GRYYEEGH!"

The spider roared back at me, its legs quickly were used like sharp spears, piercing through my entire body and leaving bloody holes everywhere!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

"Unnggh…! Hahah!"

I laughed maliciously as I enjoyed the challenge, a very welcomed one after such a long while where there was nothing to challenge me.

I rushed forward and opened my jaws, unleashing a deadly breath attack that merged all my magic elements, forming a twisting, cold, phantasmal, and illusory breath of pure darkness, engulfing the entire spider and greatly damaging her!

BOOOMMM!!!
