The Dragon Lord System
S3 - Vael vs Lithos "1"

Just then, the [Divine Shot] arrow that emitted a black-and-gold aura shot towards Lithos, the boss of the giant crystal wolf dungeon.

However, with incredible speed, Lithos responded to the attack by forming a sharp crystal shield around him, as if manipulating the surrounding crystals to protect himself.

BAMM!

A loud sound echoed as Vael's arrows collided with Lithos' crystal shield.

However, not just a clash, the crack of the crystal shield was also heard when the holy arrow managed to damage the crystal defense formed by Lithos.

CRACK...

The giant crystal shield was further cracked, giving way to the [Divine Shot] attack to continue its journey towards its destination.

Although the arrow attack managed to damage the crystal shield, Lithos did not look too affected by the attack.

The two sides continued to face each other, the aura of the battle getting thicker in the big room of the boss dungeon.

And at that instant Lithos saw clearly, who had attacked him all of a sudden.

"Angel?!" Lithos replied with real confusion, his gaze fixed on Vael who looked surprised by his reaction.

Then, in a questioning tone, Lithos continued, "Why did you, angel, come here? And what is your business here? Whatis yourname? Are you a fallen angel?" The questioning is thrown at Vael, looking for answers to Vael's unexpected presence .

However, without feeling intimidated, Vael let go of his reply loudly and decisively, "It's none of your business, lowly dog!"

Lithos, hearing the response, laughed out loud, mocking Vael's arrogant reply.

"Hahaha, so that's your answer? Well, if you want to die, I am willing to fulfill your request. In fact, I actually feel generous enough to give you a chance to live," Lithos said in a cynical tone, still staring at Vael with a sharp gaze.

Lithos continued in a cynical tone, "Hmm, I should have wanted to make you my servant. However, it seems that you don't really appreciate my passion. I'm gonna have to end you."

But Vael did not remain silent.

In a stern tone and full of rejection and disgust, he replied, "Are you kidding? Being a servant of a lowly and weak creature like yourself? I have served my great and powerful master. Your servant? I'd rather die than humble myself to be a cheap, lowly crystal dog waitress like you!"

Vael's words of ridicule seemed to throw a scorn directly towards Lithos, and at that moment Vael immediately spat full of contempt before Lithos.

It didn't take long to get a response from that crystal monster.

With an angry roar that filled the room, Lithos let go of his angry cry, "WHAT DID YOU SAY?!"

His roar shook the air and the ground, filling the entire corner of the dungeon with burning emotions.

ROARS!!

ROARR!!!

And Lithos quickly fired many of his live bullets at Vael.

The shots of Lithos' crystal bullets hit Vael quickly, like a deadly hail of crystals.

However, Vael did not remain silent. With his speed and dexterity as a ranger, he flew across that series of shots with impressive movements.

*Shush...*

*Shush...*

Vael was able to dodge those attacks with all his might, flying around the room swiftly.

However, inwardly, Vael felt depressed. He realized that as a ranger, there was a limitation in attacking the enemy directly like this.

He had to prepare for his attack with enough time, while Lithos continued to fire nonstop.

Vael wishes he had a magic caster-like ability, which could instantly cast magic without having to involve arrows or weapons.

"It's troublesome," Vael murmured inwardly while focusing on his maneuver to dodge the crystal bullet attack that kept on eyeing him.

*Shoot's...* (Crystal bullet shot approaching Vael)

*Shoot...*

*Shoot...*

It was then that Vael took the initiative to deal with the pressure of Lithos' attack.

In an instant, he launched his defensive skill, "[Heavenly Shield]!" faithfully.

A golden-white holy shield immediately appeared, forming a protective layer around Vael like a sturdy protective ball.

A series of deadly crystal bullets, which had threatened Vael from various directions, approached quickly.

However, as soon as the bullets touched the holy shield, they were miraculously blocked.

The shield was shaking violently, emitting a sparkling white light that showed its incredible strength.

Lithos, the boss of the giant crystal wolf dungeon, looked startled at how his powerful attack could be easily blocked by Vael's holy shield.

Despite looking surprised, Lithos did not give up so easily. He looked at Vael with a sharp gaze filled with anger.

"Interesting for the first time I fought an angel like you." muttered Lithos in a curious voice.

However, Vael will not just back down. He quickly responded with a counterattack that was no less deadly.

With an arrow imprinted on his bow, he cast a spell and unleashed his special attack, "[Celestial Arrow]!"

The arrow was emitting a dazzling light, as if it was coming from a heavenly realm.

"i won't let it!" lithos said while manipulating the crystals around him.

However, Lithos was not simply stunned by the beauty of the attack.

In an instant, he manipulated the surrounding crystals to form a gigantic crystal shield, ready to block Vael's attack.

The sound of crystal cracks rang out as the shield swiftly formed, becoming a sturdy protector that blocked the [Celestial Arrow] arrow attack.

Krakk...

Cracks...

A series of cracking sounds accompanied the formation of a giant crystal shield that returned.

Agilely, the shield appeared in front of Lithos, the boss of the giant crystal wolf dungeon.

The dazzling [Celestial Arrow] arrow attack with its dazzling light collided with the giant crystal shield.

The explosion of light and the impact force between the two shook the room and created a shockwave that felt extremely strong.
