Chapter 883 882: Terracotta Grottos (36)
"[Rog Ir Am]"
Another invocation washed over the battlefield, the [Rog] keyword letting us know it was some sort of Nature Mana based invocation, and if I was sitting down with some paper, I could probably begin deciphering the words more in depth, but what mattered now was that we knew what the element was and that this would likely be an offensive or supportive spell, not a defensive one.
Nature Mana billowed out of the Goblin King like a fog, filling the air and brushing over us as it made its way towards the silvery Golems, imbuing them with more power and giving them the strength to push back against the Demons, while a portion of that gale of Nature Mana surged towards the flaming sphere that was still being slowly compressed around the angel, which was clearly fighting back against its imprisonment as the sphere was occasionally deformed and stretched in random areas, only to be brought back down into its original shape.
When we raised our blades and began to hack away at the roots that armored the Goblin King, it growled and raised its arm, the fatty limb crashing down towards us as it tried to smash us into a paste, before it spat out "[Rog Za]", controlling the roots that were wrapped around its arm and having them shoot over towards us, hoping to catch us off guard.
Anput erected an earthen wall between us and those roots, buying us a moment to fortify ourselves and resume hacking away at the wooden armor in front of us, our blades coated in mana that splintered the roots and revealed more wood beneath, which began to knit back together whenever it was given the chance.
An armor that regenerated and was multilayered... it would be a pain to deal with if we weren\'t all suited for going against this element in particular; the Demons all had either Fire or Earth Mana, Jahi\'s Light was always going to be strong, and I had Ice Mana, which could deal with this easily.
Stabbing the Khopesh into the wood, I began to trace out runes swiftly with both hands, completing a mid tier Ritual Circle as quickly as I could before pressing it against the Goblin King\'s armor, activating it and watching as the water traveling through the wood began to freeze, the sheer cold pulsing out of my hands spreading a frost over the area around me that weakened the wood and allowed Jahi to chop away at it far easier than before, her great sword covered in a golden light that only grew harsher as she imbued it with more mana.
Anchoring my spell to the Khopesh - which was stabbed into the wood and almost hitting the Goblin King\'s flesh - I continued to fuel it and freeze the Water Mana inside of the Goblin King\'s Nature Mana, forcing the monster to focus all of its attention on itself and no longer give support to the silver Golems that were pressing towards us desperately, allowing the Demons to cut them down one at a time and join us.
Anput and a few of the Earth Mages continued to wall us off, while Ammit and a few of the other Mages outside were bombarding the Goblin King with spells, spreading out the damage far enough that it had to choose what to focus on but still keeping the damage close enough that we could work off of one another.
The cracks and splinters caused by our attacks were further opened by the Mages and vice versa, allowing us to slowly peel away a giant section of wood to reveal the flesh underneath much to the Goblin King\'s distress.
Invocations spilled out of its lips as it tried to stop us in any way it possibly could; from attacks that slammed into the earthen barricade around us to spells that tried to regenerate the wooden armor, even going as far as to summon more normal Golems to attack us from within the barricade, but everything it did now was only prolonging its death.
Even when it moved its attention towards the trapped angel it couldn\'t achieve anything, the continued existence of that flaming sphere only making it stronger the longer it spun, consuming the oxygen in the air to get hotter whilst also being fueled not only by Leone, but also by Janus, which was of an unknown level of strength at this moment.
A monster who\'s personal strength came from the summons of other monsters was weak on its own, and it learned that instantly as we began to carve away the fatty meat of the Goblin King and kill it through blood loss, our blades hacking away at its now frozen flesh and tearing away chunks with each strike, killing it slowly yet efficiently.
Its cries as it was carved into pieces were only broken by the desperate invocations that it spouted whenever it could, but they were of little help to the monster as we eventually reached its Core and heart, which we destroyed as soon as we saw them, killing the monster swiftly.
Far too large to transport, we cut our losses with the Core and just stabbed it, and without much fanfare afterwards, the Goblin King began to dissolve, only leaving behind its bones that we wrapped in mana for eventual use, the rest of it either too disgusting or just not useful.
Like that, yet another major battle inside of the Dungeon had been finished, and we all let out a sigh of relief as we plopped onto the soft soil, dragging in breaths and giving our bodies a moment to heal.
