"Darius!" Theo called out as he watched his ally get buried in the Cobra's venom, he knew that nothing was going to save him, not even the strongest warriors could survive a Kamuri Cobra's venom no matter the one.
Darius fell to the floor after the venom hit him, he never expected such a lethal attack.
Theo watching the warrior lay down, knew that it was only a few minutes before the poison took him out.
Theo felt something heavy on his chest, he didn't know why but he felt responsible for what had happened.
'I am sorry I brought you into this place, if I didn't choose this dungeon then nothing would have happened to you.' Theo was looking at Darius, he saw how he fought. He knew that he had lost a capable warrior.
Cleaning the little tears that fell from his cheek, Theo clung to his spear as he turned to face the cobra knowing that it was the only way he would be able to have a chance out of the dungeon.
"Come on! If I am going to die then I rather die fighting!" Theo was prepared to die, he didn't know what would happen but he was ready for a fight.
Theo was about to attack when he noticed that Darius' body was moving.
"It can't be, that's an S-ranked venom! One hit from that can kill any living thing in minutes."
Darius raised his hand and wiped the venom from his eyes. "You bastard! How dare you throw something like this on me!"
{Notice, Poison Resistance Activated!}
{Beginning healing process!}
'Dont leave yourself in the open like that while trying strategize!' Azree buzzed, it was pissed off that Darius took the hit.
Darius slowly sat up, he was cleaning the venom from his body.
"How did I know that the huge gummy worm was going to use an attack like that?" He yelled back at Azree forgetting that Theo was in front of him, he looked up to catch Theo staring at him like he saw a ghost.
"I know, I know I have a lot of explaining to do but can we focus on the huge red venom-spitting cobra for now?" Darius gave him a w warm smile.
Theo didn't care about the cobra that Darius had to tell him, he was happy that Darius was okay.
"Yeah, let's take this thing down!" Theo yelled as he turned to the Cobra looking at it, Darius rushed to his side drawing his sword.
"How are we going to take this one down? The Blue was a bit easy but this..... This is an S-ranked beast and it will tear us to shreds." Theo added he sounded a bit worried.
Darius gave him a devious smirk, he had his eyes on the cobra.
"Just follow my lead!"
He said before dashing for the beast, he moved faster than before making a little hole where he took off from.
Theo stood his ground trying not to be pushed back by the force Darius used while going for the cobra. "Did he get faster?!"
Theo noticed Darius' increase in speed, he was not sure what had happened but he was not going to be counting the number of strange things that had happened that day, he readied his sword before chasing after Darius both of them were going for the cobra.
"Here goes nothing!" Theo leaped for the cobra's side, he was going to be delivering blows below while Darius took care of the head.
The Red Cobra let out a deafening roar, and Theo fell to the ground holding his ears.
"Damn it! What is that?!" Theo looked up to see that Darius was still going for the cobra, "How is he not affected?!"
{Notice! The Red Cobra has activated Special Skill, Taunts Of the Fallen. The skill immobilizes every weak creature in the area.}
'Just like the blue, but this is stronger than it so I wonder why it is not affecting me?' Darius thought to himself, he was carefully avoiding the falling rocks. The cave was at its last legs.
'You absorbed the blue Cobra's core, it is giving you enough resistance to that move since it can't affect them.' Azree chimed in.
Darius stood still when he heard that, he was almost in front of the cobra. "Is that so?"
He took a deep breath, he faced the 20-foot-tall beast. "Activate Wyrms Roar!"
{Special Skill: Wyrm's Roar Activated!}
Darius let out a roar that was almost the same as the red cobra's, the roars collided sending shockwaves across the cave the roof of the cave rumbling like it couldn't hold on for long.
Theo watched as Darius stood his ground against the cobra. "This man, just what are you?"
Theo got his ability to walk again, he knew that Darius had done something to push back the cobra's skills.
"Here we go again!" Theo braced himself before dashing for the cobra again, he was going to make sure that he would take it down no matter what happens.
Darius kept roaring to see if he would get the cobra to back down, he was not going to let anything get past him, the red cobra stopped roaring it had its eyes on Darius.
{Taunts Of The Fallen nullified!}
Darius had a smile on his face, he charged up the energy gauntlets, he was preparing for an attack that would take down the Cobra once and for all.
"Now time to dance!" Darius leaped for the snake, but before he could even land close to it. The cobra flung its tail, it landed on Darius sending him down to the ground with a loud thud.
"Darius!" Theo yelled, he was going for the cobra's belly knowing that it was the weaker parts making it the only place he could do any damage.
"Syplh's Thurst!" Theo used his spear to send a powerful wave to the cobra's belly, his move managed to hit the cobra causing it great pain.
"So that's an open spot!" Theo was dodging the cobra's attacks, he was going for the belly. Thanks to Darius healing him he was able to keep up and put up a fight.
Darius slowly got up, he looked at the cobra and he could see Theo attacking the belly.
"He's doing fine, there is nothing to worry about here." He said as he stretched his back.
The screen appeared with a notification.....
{Notice! Defeat the Red Kamuri Cobra in 10 minutes or face the penalty!}
{09:57}
"What in the world is going on here?!" Darius was looking at the screen, he didn't know what was going on.
'The system feels like you aren't taking this fight a bit seriously, so if you don't take down this beast soon, you will be facing something more intense, and your friend there will be left to handle it.' Azree warned...
"But..."
{09:47}
Darius didn't know what he was going to say, he knew that if he was not careful then Theo would be the one to suffer. He took his stance, before taking off with an intense speed. He leaped up again trying to hit it from the head.
The Cobra released its hood, suddenly it felt like the entire cave was turning upside down for both warriors.
{Warning! The Cobra has activated hypnotic flare: The skill puts the enemy into a trance making it hard for them to get close enough.}
{08:50}
'Damn it, not enough time.' Darius was trying to stay on his feet, he was not even able to walk in front.
'Azree is there anything I can do to break this?' Darius was confused at the moment not able to do anything to even move front.
'Try using a special skill of yours that can make weaker creatures scared.' Azree gave him a suggestion.
Darius was looking at the Cobra, he was not sure how he was going to be able to scare something like that but 'Scared? How am I going to... Thats it! Activate Dragon's Glare!"
{Dragon's Glare Activated!}
Darius looked up to see that his skill was pushing the cobra back a bit. "That should do it!"
Darius ran for the cobra again, he was locked in this time and he was not going to miss. "Theo!"
Theo turned to see Darius coming in his direction, he was not sure what was on his mind. "What?!"
"Give me your hand!" Darius was looking at Theo, he had an idea on his mind but for it to work he needed Theo to work with him.
"Why do you want my hand? Can't you see that I am using both of them," Theo was trying to bring down the snake from that angle.
"Just trust me!" Darius yelled, he was not going to back down knowing that it was the only shot he had.
Theo turned to look at Darius, he was not sure what was going on in his head but he needed to trust him so they would leave the dungeon alive. He held out his hand, and Darius grabbed onto it.
He looked at Theo, with a smile on his face. "Aim for the head."
"Wait, what?!" Theo was confused but before he could do anything Darius flung him up towards the cobra's head with so much force.
{03:40}
"Dragon Blast!" Darius used the move to make the cobra switch its attention to him, he took out his sword and dashed for the cobra's belly. "It's in your hands, Theo!"
Darius began slicing the cobra's belly making it hard for it to see Theo coming.
Theo midair understood what Darius had done, and took position the moment the cobra turned to Darius.
"He's crazy!" Theo spun himself, he began going back down for the cobra's head with his spear aiming for the skull. "Torpedo impact!"
He yelled as he landed the blow on the cobra, bringing it down.
"Perfect!" Darius smiled, he charged up the gauntlets with enough energy. "Dragon Final Slash!" Darius used a special move sending deadlier slashes towards the cobra's belly ending its life once and for all.
{Red Cobra Defeated!}
