Chapter 523: Chapter 523
As they moved away from the Heavy Rock Gorilla, Du You realized that although this Magical Beast had a frightening defense ability, it lacked speed. Even its attack moves were remarkably slow.
When faced with the Destruction Evil Dog, the Heavy Rock Gorilla could only retaliate one move at a time, very slowly, like a rhythmic pile driver. If they hadn’t been frantically attacking previously, they wouldn’t have even noticed this.
But even this awareness didn’t help. Being unable to harm the opponent was no good.
"Master, keep going, keep attacking."
Du You rolled his eyelids, "I used the Destruction Flames attack, enhanced by the Dark Spirits, to damage it. Even combined with the Dissolution Spell, the effects aren’t great. Based on conventional calculations, I’d need at least one hundred Destruction Flames to wear it down, and I don’t have that much magic power."
Du You felt helpless. The Dissolution Spell was useful, but can’t be used all the time to dissolve magic resistance; it could only dissolve a specific area.
Combined with the widespread Destruction Flames attack, the result wasn’t impressive. Even if his attacks could synergize better, he would need almost fifty Destruction Flames to attack. He simply didn’t have enough magic power for that.
Even disregarding the need for magic power, such a ruckus could attract the attention of other Magical Beasts.
This thing was too hard to tackle. It was the first time Du You had met such a pesky foe.
Lin Yushi stuck out her tongue, now she was also helpless. Her Hell Blood Demon Thunder and her sister’s highly poisonous sniper shot were all useless. This was not an evil creature that could be restrained by them.
Du You lifted his hand and released a Soul Pierce. The air before him was instantly shaken a little, and the invisible attack struck the Heavy Rock Gorilla. The next moment, the Heavy Rock Gorilla let out a horrifying scream.
"Its soul defense is relatively weak, but it’s still a tough nut to crack," Du You frowned. Would they really have to wear it down to defeat?
But in the next moment, the Heavy Rock Gorilla suddenly disappeared. The ground shook, and somehow, the Heavy Rock Gorilla had appeared next to the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs and threw a punch at them.
The Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs quickly responded, clashing with the Heavy Rock Gorilla, causing the shake.
"What’s going on? How did the Heavy Rock Gorilla get over here? Did some ability speed it up?"
Lin Yucha shook her head and said, "No, I’ve been watching the whole time. There was no trace. If it had sped up, I should have noticed something. Also, when the Heavy Rock Gorilla came under the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs, it’s attack was just as slow as before. With this in mind, the Heavy Rock Gorilla wasn’t speeding up; it must have been an Instantaneous Movement."
Instantaneous Movement? Du You’s eyes brightened. This was a rare ability. "Let’s continue testing; if it’s true, this could be the best tank we’ve ever had." Du You decided to give it a try.
Such formidable defense, initially compromised by its slow speed, made it akin to a turtle. But if it could Instantaneously Move, that would make it the perfect tank. No matter what, it would always be there to block enemy attacks for him.
If that was the case, they had stumbled upon a gem. Such horrifying survival ability, yet it hadn’t formed a pack. Du You suspected that this Heavy Rock Gorilla was either a mutation or had experienced some other incredible encounter. Du You wasn’t going to let such a good target go. Controlling the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs, Du You and the others continued to back away.
After several experiments, Du You was finally sure that the Heavy Rock Gorilla undoubtedly possessed some kind of Instantaneous Movement ability.
If this was the case, it could not be let go. They were determined to grind it whatever it took.
"Not sure if the poison of the Death Scorpion works. I’m beginning to doubt the usual toxins."
"Why not give it a try. The Death Scorpion doesn’t have much use against the Heavy Rock Gorilla anyway. Even if it dies, it could resurrect after 12 hours," Lin Yucha said to Du You.
"You’re right. But the defenses of this thing are too high; we have to create a wound to make it work. Otherwise, even if the Death Raid works, it would be wasted." After all, this move only had one chance within 12 hours.
Du You started working again, aiming the Dissolution Spell at a small scratch on the Heavy Rock Gorilla. Though there was a crack there, it was just on the surface of its skin and had not penetrated beyond, so it wasn’t considered a wound.
After the Dissolution Spell, Du You again used the Dark Spirits and maintained its presence. He began to concentrate on the fireball. As long as he was fighting with the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs, the Heavy Rock Gorilla wouldn’t Instantaneously Move away.
Perhaps because it didn’t sense any danger, the Heavy Rock Gorilla showed no signs of dodging. Before each fireball was dropped by Du You, he would command the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs to step back. Each attack added depth to the wound on the Heavy Rock Gorilla’s body. But the gorilla’s skin was much thicker than Du You had expected.
After each attack, the ((Heavy Rock Gorilla)) dazedly persevered in its pursuit of the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs. It was uncertain if it was interested in the fight or if it was just its nature.
Perhaps due to its strong defense, it had no real enemy in this area, making the Heavy Rock Gorilla seem fearless and unafraid of anything. In battle, it never displayed any defensive moves.
Finally, when the fifth fireball dropped by Du You hit, the Heavy Rock Gorilla let out a painful cry. Du You saw blood trickling from the gorilla’s wound; it was finally injured.
It certainly wasn’t easy, Du You thought.
In an instant, the Heavy Rock Gorilla disappeared and reappeared next to the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs.
At this time, the Death Scorpion, already prepared, launched its Death Raid, its body suddenly turning pitch black.
The Heavy Rock Gorilla seemed to feel something but because its movements were slow, it had no chance to dodge. A black light flashed onto the shoulder of the Heavy Rock Gorilla, where the stinger of the scorpion had already penetrated the wound. The deadly venom was injected directly inside, starting to take effect without any reservation.
Heavy Rock Gorilla, which had had no reaction so far, finally reacted.
It started with signs of discomfort, followed by screams, then by rolling around on the ground, wailing and struggling continuously. Du You, controlling the Heavenly Disaster Demonic Dogs, quickly retreated, watching quietly. Googlᴇ search 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚑𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚑𝕟𝕖𝕥
"It has a strong resistance to poison as well. It’s been able to hold on for such a long time."
Du You remembered that any living thing, when faced with a Death Raid, would not last longer than ten seconds, even if they were at level 20.
But the Heavy Rock Gorilla, being only level 19, had already endured almost a minute and was still alive. With this level of poison resistance, general toxins were likely ineffective against the Heavy Rock Gorilla. This kind of poison resistance was unprecedented in Du You’s experience.
