The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 249

Chapter 249 Naga Dungeon Complete

?Prince Corbin moved forward to scout the area around the final oversized Naga in the dungeon. This was likely to be the hardest fight of all, and it was almost certainly designed for ten fighters of equal power, but none of them really knew what quality of fighters the black and white robed man at the dungeon entrance meant.

The fact that they didn't recognize those robes or the God that they belonged to concerned Tessa, as they looked like a cleric's robes, but in the middle of a city full of potential enemies, they weren't going to start asking questions.

Corbin returned to the group and made a quick diagram in the dirt. "There is a Naga of some sort, oversized like the last one, and at a similar power level. The tents around the Naga boss are empty, but I suspect that won't be the case once we attack. Either there will be Naga summoned into them, or portals will open to bring in assistants.

The outfits make the oversized Naga look like a Royal, and this one seems to have male anatomy, a more muscular upper body, wide pecs instead of rounded breast analogues. So, I would call it a Naga King.

I don't know what it will do once we're in combat, but there are weapons all over the platform."

Karl nodded along as he took in the information. "So, it sounds like it's a melee combat type of opponent. Avoidance will be key in taking it down. With four arms, it will be able to fight like multiple opponents, and the tail is likely to be dangerous as well.

That shouldn't be anything that we can't deal with if it's near the same level as the last one. But the issue will be when more Naga show up. We should try turning it around so that the mages and less armoured combatants can stand near the stairs, away from the tents."

Alice drew a mark on the diagram. "If we're here, it should be good, provided that the Naga King can be turned around. We just need to worry about the reinforcements coming down the road instead of from the tents.

But will the two of you be alright at the far side?"

"Three of us. I will take Thor with me and Corbin. That should be enough to keep it facing us, I hope. If the reinforcements come from behind you, withdraw your Golems to hold them off." Karl suggested.

Corbin smiled. "Good planning skills. I hope that your skills match up to your confidence."

Karl chuckled as he looked at his skill points. He had enough for another upgrade, so if things got really bad, he would grant himself another skill to make up for what he was lacking.

Alice looked toward the sky. "We should send Hawk up to scout the area and make certain that we didn't miss anything. Now that we're almost out of enemies, it should be safe enough."

Karl motioned for him to comply, and Hawk took off, circling the swamps searching for opponents.

[Nothing, just that big one.] He confirmed.

[Stay up high, and you can join the fight after we get him turned.] Karl replied.

"Hawk says we're good."

Karl and Corbin rushed past the King, like they were going to attack its back, and Karl summoned Thor from his space once they were in place, getting the fight started with the King facing away from the ramp.

The others joined from the steps, with Rae's Golems moving forward to engage from the sides, far enough forward that the King wouldn't have to turn around to look at them.

That made it look like a five on one from its point of view until the mages and lower ranked Spellswords began their ranged bombardment.

The wounds stacked up at an insane rate as Corbin focused all his energy on parrying all four swords and keeping the King from landing a single strike.

It was becoming a lopsided battle, and Hawk's fireballs were searing away scales all over the creature's body.

As they had expected, the King eventually cast a barrier over itself and let out a battle cry that made dozens of Naga appear on the path toward the platform and from the tents.

The Spider Golems turned to face the ones from the nearest tents, while Karl dealt with the few that were behind them.

The mages would be engaged for a while, but between Rae and the Spider Golems, the Naga Warriors who were summoned weren't a major threat. It was the steady stream of enemies coming up the ramps that was the real issue.

At the moment, Corbin was stuck on defence, so the only ones landing any hits on the boss was Rae, while Thor and Karl dealt with the additional fighters.

Or at least he hoped that would work. He managed to take Thor and Rae's eggs back out after putting them in the space. _{frёewebnoѵēl.com}
