[CH399+ Continued] Dungeon Diver: Stealing A Monster's Power

Chapter 509

The monstrous roar that echoes from the back of the 42nd-floor boss room reveals its form soon after I hear it.

At first, when teleporting into this white-floored room, my all-seeing eye picked up the presence of a man standing just as tall as me with a golden collar around his neck.

However, it immediately evolved into its monster form when I arrived. It jumps up and over the nearest white hill to come into my vision, and its 6-meter-tall light blue-skinned muscular body contrasts greatly with the grey sky.

It has three golden glowing eyes on its forehead, with a large matching collar around its neck too. It wears silver armor on its chest and feet, and carries two longswords that shimmer the same metallic shine.

Its gaze locks with mine and it speeds forward as I scan its status.

It seems like every floor above the 40th has been raising levels by about 500 each new boss. It is a considerable amount.

I feel an aura of mana control fill the dungeon and a denser layer of blue mana covers its body and swords. Both of its ranked-up buffs activate, and the graceful movements of its steps and blade are the handiwork of this monster's mythic-grade swordsmanship at work.

A thick Golden Aura leaks from its eyes and covers its arms and two blades while it comes at me.

I activate my own mythic-grade swordsmanship skill and channel my soul energy into defenses while activating my own ranked-up buff to grow in size and create a Dark Red Greater Energy form almost twice as large as the monster before me.

I lunge forward too, and both of us follow the instinctive thread of our skill's energy attacks.

My sword collides with one of his, blocking it and sending it flying backward, then twisting my body to block his second blade coming from the opposite side.

Blue and golden energy disperse into the air as the three-eyed swordsman calculates the perfect counter to my block.

In my Greater Form, I have the edge on it in all of my stats. However, I could tell that if I fought it in my base form while it was activating its buffs, I would have had trouble fending off the attack I just blocked.

My gaze locks on the monster's weak points. I need to focus on defeating this monster, not just testing out new skills and moves like I did on the 41st floor.

Its shoulders, knees, and neck are unprotected from armor, but it holds its dual swords in a peculiar stance that blocks these weak spots while in a resting position.

It even manages to guard these points while my sword was deflecting it during our last exchange.

The focused golden soul energy in its blades was nearly as dense as mine, but it seemed like it was using the majority of it only on its weapons. My Soul Energy covered my blades as well as my entire greater energy form, spreading out its density greatly.
