Chapter 889 Raid Boss Battle [Part 5]
After her transformation, Queen Rhiannon had gained formidable strength.
Just as Gaap and Lux guessed, she changed her tactics from attacking with magic to attacking physically.
In the Abyss where every day was a fight for survival, the Succubus Queen had experienced her fair share of fights. She always adapted to her environment as she raised her Rank to that of a Demigod, becoming one of the true powerhouses of the Abyssal Realm.
And now, she would show the foolish mortals, who had pushed her to a corner, her true might.
'I'd better get rid of the real threats first,' Queen Rhiannon disappeared from where she was hovering and appeared a few meters away from Lilian.
The Wicked Queen Slime was already expecting that the Succubus would attack her first, so she met her head-on with a flurry of kicks and punches.
Since magical and force-based attacks wouldn't work against an opponent phased into the Ethereal Plane, the only thing she could do was use melee combat.
Queen Rhiannon didn't expect that the Wicked Queen Slime would not only be proficient in magical attacks, but she was also good in martial arts.
The two clashed, destroying everything around them, forcing Lux, Gaap, and the Satyrs to distance themselves from the battle.
'So this is a fight between true Power Houses,' Lux thought as he watched from the side. He felt both fear and awe from the destructive power shown by the two beings that stood at the Apex of the World.
The Dark Forest, as well as the land beneath, split apart as Lilian and Queen Rhiannon exchanged blows that would've been strong enough to instantly annihilate an Empyrean-Ranked Monster without giving it a chance to scream.
Knowing that the Wicked Queen Slime couldn't lose the exchange, Lux's forces moved in to support her.
"Duel [EX]!" Orion's clone used the taunting skill and managed to make the Succubus Queen's body stiffen for a split second.
Lilian, who saw this opportunity, didn't hold back and threw a punch at her opponent's face. However, the Succubus Queen phased out into the Ethereal Plane, rendering the physical blow useless.
"Just as we feared, she can use both kinds of Ethereal Jaunts," Gaap stated.
Lux nodded as he finished his preparations on his side.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhile Lilian and Queen Rhiannon were fighting the Half-Elf and the Halfling weren't standing idly and were readying their counterattack.
The Field of Light was also playing a vital role in the battlefield. Although the Succubus Queen didn't seem to be affected by it, her speed and strength had decreased a bit, preventing her from completely overpowering Lilian despite the difference in their ranks.
After clashing one last time, Queen Rhiannon found an opportunity and kicked Lilian away, sending her crashing towards one of the mountains in the distance.
The Succubus Queen then flew in the direction of the Light Elemental that was keeping the Field of Light active.
After her exchanges with the Wicked Queen Slime, she deemed that the Field of Light was affecting her performance significantly and needed to be destroyed at all costs.
But Lux and Gaap already saw this coming and were prepared to prevent this, so they also made their moves.
"Go, Baal!"
"Diablo, show her what we can do!"
The two Black Knights who were under the Master-Disciple Necromancers charged at the Succubus Queen fearlessly. One was riding on a flaming horse, and the other was running holding a black sword in his hand.
Diablo and his trusted mount, who had fought countless battles together, were now Argonaut-Ranked Monsters.
Their strength grew as their Master, Lux, grew, making them very formidable.
An Argonaut-Ranked Monster fighting against a Demigod sounded like a very laughable concept. However, just like his Master, Diablo wasn't fighting alone.
"Hellfire…" Diablo said and the sword in his hand blazed with hellish flames. "Annihilation!"
Baal, who was running next to him, raised his sword high and swung it forward.
"Oblivion Slash!"
The Fiery Attack as well as the Crescent Sword Slash that the Knights unleashed merged together, forming a Hellish Crescent Blade that sent flames trailing in its wake as it flew towards its designated target.
Queen Rhiannon wasn't impressed and was about to deflect it with her sword when suddenly, her body froze mid-air, preventing her from deflecting the attack.
The combined attack hit its mark and pushed the Succubus Queen a few meters away due to the impact.
However, due to Queen Rhiannon's Scaled Armor, the attack didn't wound her body, nor showed any signs that they had dealt damage to her, with the exception of the black smoke that rose from the place where they hit her.
"That skill is starting to annoy me," Queen Rhiannon muttered as she looked at Calypso, who was hovering in the sky, with killing intent.
She knew that anything that could momentarily make her pause on the battlefield was a dangerous ability because it allowed her opponents to deal a blow to her uncontested.
This had happened thrice already, and at this point, the Succubus Queen was past being annoyed.
If she were to have her way, she wished that she could kill all of her foes instantly.
But now, she knew that she was not capable of doing that. Their actions had proved that they weren't people whom she could underestimate any longer.
The Succubus Queen might look calm on the surface, but Diablo's and Baal's attacks surprised her greatly.
Although there was no visible damage on the surface, she felt pain at the moment of impact as if the attack had grazed her soul.
As a Demigod, her soul was extremely powerful because she had to undergo a Rebirth that strengthened not only her body but also her soul.
Soul-Based attacks were something that everyone was quite wary of, even Demigods, and if their opponents possessed such an ability, they must do their best to eliminate them first.
Using her incredible speed, she flew past Diablo and Baal with ease and reappeared a few meters away from Lux and Gaap.
Since she wanted to capture the Half-Elf alive, she focused her attention on the Halfling, who had thwarted her attacks many times already.
"Do you think you can hurt my Master under my watch?"
The Fox Lady, Hana, whom Gaap had revived, placed her hands on Lux's and Gaap's shoulders. A second later, the three of them disappeared and reappeared hundreds of meters away in a different location.
Queen Rhiannon clicked her tongue. Her opponents were sure like slippery eels that refused to be caught.
Even so, she still pursued Gaap and Lux, forcing Hana to teleport repeatedly across the battlefield in an attempt to shake off the Succubus Queen.
While Queen Rhiannon was chasing Lux and Gaap, she made sure to attack indiscriminately throughout her surroundings, killing countless Undead Monsters in her wake.
However, since Hana refused to give up, the Succubus Queen deemed that it was counterproductive to continue chasing them at this point in time.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm'I'll deal with the small fries first.' The Succubus Queen then slashed sideways, creating a wind blade that flew in the direction of the Greater Light Elemental, as well as the Radiant Slimes that were supporting it.
But, just like always, a pair of gigantic hands appeared, blocking her attack, making the Succubus Queen frown.
Knowing that the same thing would happen again and again, Queen Rhiannon finally made the decision to prioritize eliminating Gaap at all costs.
She was starting to get suspicious of the Gigantic Hands that were blocking her attacks. The more she saw them, for some reason, the more familiar they looked to her.
The Succubus Queen had a nagging feeling at the back of her head, but she didn't pay it too much attention and pursued her target with a vengeance.
Hana, who was protecting Lux and Gaap, sneered as she used her teleportation ability to distance themselves every time the Succubus Queen headed in their direction.
Queen Rhiannon unleashed devastating ranged attacks at the Halfling, but each of them was blocked effortlessly by the Gigantic Hands which were like an impassable wall, blocking her path.
Once she deemed that enough was enough, she unleashed wide-scale attacks, not caring what she hit or where it hit.
Although the Gigantic Hands were big, the Succubus Queen didn't believe that they could block all of her attacks that obliterated everything around her, changing the topography of the land.
And she was right.
Nearly 95% of Lux's Undead Legion perished instantly after getting hit by her wide-scale attack that split the land in half.
But just as she was feeling good about her strategy, her body once again stiffened, and eleven ominous-looking red lightning bolts flew in her direction.
"""Finger of Death!"""
Lux's, Eiko's, and Asmodeus' clones all attacked at the same time under the Half-Elf's command.
The finger of death only worked on monsters, and it could insta-kill any monster that was equivalent to Lux's Rank or lower. It was not fatal to Humans or Demi-Human Creatures, and he was not delusional enough to think that it would work against a Demigod.
However, there were two things that this skill was capable of doing.
One was that it could inflict great pain on their targets.
And two, it was imbued by Lux's Divine Abyssal Touch, which dealt increased damage against Abyssal Creatures.
Although the attack was not lethal, the pain from getting hit by the Finger of Death on top of the damage that it inflicted on the Soul was something that even the Succubus Queen wouldn't be able to shrug off so easily.
"You brat!" the Succubus Queen said through gritted teeth as her beautiful purple eyes locked on Lux's body. "I swear I'll make you pay for this!"
Although she intended to capture Lux alive, that didn't mean that she would not hurt him in order to achieve her goal.
As long as his heart was beating and he was still breathing, the Succubus Queen would not hesitate to give him a serious injury that could permanently cripple him for the rest of his life as punishment for the trouble he was giving her.
