[Genshin Impact] Chapter 115: The Power to Defeat a Dragon
🕑 Added 2024-04-02 17:18:50 +0000 UTCIn Mondstadt, a hurricane rages.
The once clean and tidy streets are now in chaos, with all sorts of things that can be blown away dancing in the wind.
Nolan's eyes gradually turned golden as he looked up at the Wind Dragon in the sky.
【Level: ???】
Neither the level nor weaknesses are visible. It seems that the Stormterror's level already exceeds the combined total of Nolan and Fischl.
"Why is it attacking Mondstadt?" Lumine, wearing white sleeves, held up a blunted sword she had just taken out, her fair face showing a solemn expression.
It's obvious.
She has already encountered the One of The Seven Archons' Statue in Mondstadt and Gained the power of Anemo Element. So, unsurprisingly, she also has the ability to collect things with elemental power similar to the Vision.
Lumine without the Vision was supposed to use the body as a carrier.
After all, she was once a powerful being who could travel through different worlds. Even though she lost her power, she hasn't lost the knowledge in her mind.
After being able to use the power of wind element.
She didn't need to learn the techniques of using elemental power from scratch like other newly acquired Vision wilders.
With her knowledge and experience, her strength grew rapidly, or rather, she was not slow to recover to her former level.
Nolan glanced at her with his golden Eye of Judgment, which didn't fail this time.
Lumine now has the strength of level forty, much stronger than him.
But in the game storyline, Lumine is capable of repelling the Wind Dragon. Can she do it with her current strength?
Nolan thought with a bit of uncertainty.
Then he glanced at Paimon, who was holding onto the ribbon of Lumine's dress to prevent herself from being blown away. He found that she was only at level two, just like an ordinary person.
It seems that regardless of her mysterious background, she is not strong in her current state.
"Be careful, the Wind Dragon is about to attack!" In order not to be affected by the hurricane, Amber put on the goggles hanging around her neck onto her eyes.
At this moment, she clearly saw the Stormterror opening its ferocious mouth, continuously gathering wind elements within it, as if it was about to spew out its terrifying dragon's breath.
"Such a terrifying attack! If it hits Mondstadt City, will it even create a breach in the city walls!"
Nolan couldn't help but nervously take a step back, while holding his Adventurer's Hunter Bow in his hand.
It seems that this is the only way to feel a bit safer.
"Traveler, stop it quickly! We are too close to its attack range, and we'll be affected by it. Won't our journey end here just as it's begun? Waaah!"
Paimon's voice was tense with a faint hint of crying.
"It's flying too high!" Lumine condensed a vortex in her hand, but then reluctantly dispersed it with a five-fingered grip. She couldn't attack from such a far distance for the time being.
Nolan frowned slightly upon hearing Paimon's words. It seems that running away now is already too late.
The Wind Dragon was high in the air, and there were only two archers on the scene who could hit it.
Right at this moment.
Amber pulled her long, messy brown hair to the back of her head and infused the arrow with fierce fire elemental power.
With a release of the bowstring, the arrow, like a crimson meteor, streaked through the gloomy sky, moving against the wind, crashed into the Wind Dragon's gathering dragon breath, and was easily torn apart and dissipated by the raging wind.
Amber is much weaker than the Stormterror, and a frontal attack is unlikely to have much impact on it.
Although the Wind Dragon's strength exceeds the effective range of the golden Eye of Judgment, and its weaknesses cannot be seen.
But Nolan, with his foresight, naturally knows that its weakness lies in the influence of the poison blood power within its body, and the poisonous spines that grow on its back.
Attacking there should surely cause it harm.
"Amber, can you help attach some elemental power?" Nolan said to the girl with snow-white thighs exposed by her over-the-knee boots.
As for why he didn't ask Lumine to help, it was naturally because the Wind Dragon had a very, very high resistance to the wind element and couldn't do much damage at all.
Even the lowest level elemental beings like Slimes were immune to the corresponding elemental damage, and as a rare elemental dragon, it was naturally not far off.
After all, one of the basic elements that make up this elemental life form is wind. When wind elements hit the Wind Dragon, it's like drops of water merging into the ocean. How could it affect itself? At most, it would just stir up some waves.
The reason wind elemental damage is effective against it in the game storyline is that it's hitting the poisonous spines on its back, which are not part of the Wind Dragon itself.
"Of course, no problem!"
Amber's movements were swift, rushing in less than a second to attach the Fire Elemental for Nolan before the Wind Dragon released its dragon's breath.
The next moment.
The armor-piercing arrow with fire elemental attached, without a trajectory, without any signs, silently crossed a distance of tens of meters and accurately pinned itself onto the poisonous spine on the Wind Dragon's back, radiating with gloomy light!
The intense pain caused the Wind Dragon's almost completed dragon breath to dissipate unstably.
Its angry gaze stared at the few ants on the ground.
Due to the influence of the poisonous blood, the Wind Dragon's reason has long been clouded. It completely gave up its airspace advantage and swiped down at Nolan and the others with its claws.
"Quickly, get out of the way!"
Lumine pulled the scarf around Paimon's neck, who was stunned, and with a powerful push from her feet, she leaped a distance away. The gigantic dragon claw slammed onto the fountain in the square, causing bricks and stones to fly in all directions for a moment.
Nolan and Amber also quickly jumped to the side, using their hands to shield themselves from the flying dust and fragments of the fountain.
He hadn't expected the Stormterror to directly charge down and cause damage to Mondstadt with brute force, but fortunately, it still hadn't managed to spew out its dragon breath.
Otherwise, the damage to Mondstadt City would have been even greater.
Seizing the opportunity as the Wind Dragon approached the ground, Lumine took two steps, leaped onto the Wind Dragon's head, and stabbed downwards with her Dull Blade. The sword tip sank in about three inches, but only caused a slight cut.
However, unexpectedly, Lumine's strike seemed to inflict even greater pain on it than when Nolan attacked the poisonous spines!
It frantically shook its head, trying to throw Lumine off.
Bang!
The Wind Dragon crashed into a nearby building, and a corner of the two-story structure instantly collapsed. Lumine also had an intimate encounter with the outer wall of the second floor of the building and was sent flying.
"Ah, Traveler!" Paimon watched Lumine about to fall to the ground, anxiously wanting to fly up and catch her.
But with Paimon's strength, she would most likely just end up injuring herself. Nolan pulled her back, quickly taking two steps forward to catch Lumine in her arms in a princess carry.
His left hand passed through her back, grabbing onto her snow-white shoulder, while his right hand was slightly pressed against her soft thighs and calves clad in white over-the-knee boots.
Before he could even feel a trace of warmth.
The tremendous force from the girl's body impact caused Nolan to stagger back two steps, and he ended up sitting on the ground with his hands supporting himself.
Lumine's buttocks were slightly tilted, sitting on Nolan's lower abdomen, with one hand pressing on his knees to support herself.
"Sorry, are you okay?" She shook her head, then quickly reached out to Nolan and asked.
"I'm fine, just almost vomited up the pork I had yesterday!" Nolan held the girl's fair hand as he was pulled up, indicating that he was alright.
At this moment, the Wind Dragon didn't continue to pay attention to everyone. It quickly ascended into the sky and flew towards the city gates.
This relieved everyone.
Although the process was difficult, Mondstadt City was temporarily safe, and Lumine's final blow seemed to have had a significant effect.
Nolan speculated that it should be related to her ability to purify the red droplet-shaped crystals, after all, that thing also contained the power of the poisonous blood in the Wind Dragon's body.
Presumably, it was Lumine's purifying power that scared it away just now.
