What does it mean that the Demon King was killed by a wheelchair?

"Ugh... Pfft!"

House emerged from the stench-filled pile of bones in a backstroke position. Looking up, he saw Green disappear from the hole, and almost all the light had vanished from his sight... He couldn't see anything at all.

The area below the bone pit was eerily quiet; House could practically hear his own heartbeat.

"Trial... what trial my ass?" House thought to himself, you didn't even give me the content of the trial. Does it mean that surviving in this pit is the trial?

House began trying to move his body, but as soon as he pulled his left arm out, a burning pain shot straight to the top of his head, making him grit his teeth in pain:

"Tsk—!"

Dark red blood slid down his forearm. The wound was shallow, but the pain it brought was extraordinary. These long-dried elf skeletons had all turned into invisible traps at this moment. If you were not careful, the sharp bone spurs would cut through your flesh like a file.

House cursed under his breath. He looked around and saw a dark area not far away where the light disappeared even more.

His face lit up with joy; it must be a large rock that he could climb up and rest for a while.

So House gritted his teeth, pried open the bones next to him, and swam toward them. But as he pried, he found that for some reason, these bones felt like they weighed a ton and he couldn't move them at all!

"!"

Thinking of this, his brows furrowed instantly. It wasn't that these bones were incredibly heavy... it was that his strength had diminished!

"Holy crap... Green didn't throw his wheelchair off me...!"

Without a wheelchair, the Geodude's effects are ineffective!

Like a thunderbolt exploding in his mind, House felt he was facing the greatest crisis in history. Without the wheelchair, he lost not only his speed of movement, but also his strength!

This is really messed up. Since they can't rely on brute force, they can only move it bit by bit. House twisted his body, trying to avoid being cut by the bones while using his meager strength to pry open the heavy objects.

Due to a combination of factors, his progress was as slow as a tortoise.

Fortunately, he managed to climb onto the boulder without any major incident.

"Ha...ha..." He collapsed onto the boulder, utterly exhausted, feeling the cold touch on his back...

He climbed about ten meters, his head covered in sweat. This damn place... how was he supposed to climb up there?

Crackling and clattering...

Just then, a strange noise suddenly came from the calm pit. The sudden sound startled House so much that he immediately got up and opened his eyes as wide as possible to look around, but the visibility was too low!

Crackling and clattering...

The sound continued... House got goosebumps all over; the sound wasn't a hallucination, it was real! And it was getting closer and closer!

"Damn it...are you kidding me...are there any living creatures in this pit?!"

Crackling!

Until the sound was right next to him, House finally understood what it was: the sound of bones colliding violently and then breaking!

Something is surging beneath this sea of ​​corpses!

—Crack! !

Almost instantly, House unleashed his lightning spear. He didn't really want to use this move unless absolutely necessary, because with his current strength, he could only throw three more lightning spears before collapsing completely.

If any unexpected situation were to occur at that time, it would truly be too late.

When the blazing white lightning burst open in the darkness, House could hardly believe his eyes.

Just five meters in front of him, from within the piled-up sea of ​​bones, a giant serpent covered in thick, steel-like scales stared at him in the darkness with its eerie green eyes.

The giant serpent's body is hidden in this sea of ​​death, but the part of its head and neck that protrudes from the sea of ​​bones is more than ten meters high!

Time ticked by, and the giant snake and House stared at each other, neither making the first move. House felt a sharp pain in his lungs with every breath he took.

The giant snake flicked its pink tongue, its eyelids rising and falling, and its vertical, pinpoint pupils gleamed with a terrifying halo under the white light.

"--hiss!!!"

Without any warning, the giant serpent leaped up! Its enormous, bottomless jaws snapped down at House!

Crack!

Without the slightest hesitation, House hurled the lightning spear precisely into the snake's soft throat. The giant snake roared to the sky, and a faint flash of lightning emanated from beneath its black scales.

The bite, which should have hit its mark, missed by a fraction of an inch. The snake's head grazed House's body and plunged heavily into the pile of bones behind him, sending up a shower of broken bones.

"Holy crap...that scared me to death, Green! You're for real! I..."

But before he could finish the word "I", House was forced to shut his mouth, and then another huge roar rang out!

The snake head that had just entered the sea of ​​bones only stayed below for a moment before breaking through the 'sea surface' again and biting straight at his head!

There wasn't even a two-second pause in between. House was so startled that he froze. How could someone who had taken a lightning spear be so lively and energetic?!

Crack! Crack!

But there was no time for him to think; if he hesitated even a second, he would die!

House, having exhausted himself, unleashed another lightning spear!

Lightning streaked across the darkness with a golden tail, and this time House plunged it into the giant serpent's eye!

"Hiss hiss hiss howl howl howl howl——!!"

Judging from the extent of the opponent's painful screams, this attack was extremely effective.

The snake's head jerked back violently from the electric shock. It didn't continue its pursuit but instead began to writhe in place. Its hundreds-of-meters-long body began to tremble violently, and the entire sea of ​​bones shook with its fury. A snake tail, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, slammed heavily onto the rock, tearing the air apart and creating a sonic boom. The extremely high decibel explosion caused House excruciating pain in his eardrums.

And that blow landed on his thigh. Luckily, his leg was tough enough. If it had hit him just a little higher, he would have turned into House-chan!

"Hiss hiss hiss—hiss hiss hiss—hiss hiss howl howl!"

The giant serpent leaped high into the air like a dragon, its long and massive body drawing an inverted 'U' shape. It began to dart back and forth in the sea of ​​bones at breakneck speed, so fast that House could only see a blurry afterimage of its body.

It’s over.

House's worst fears came true: the snake started running around erratically.

He could barely lift his arm now, so he could only unleash one last shot with his Thunder Spear. House's original plan was to inflict [Triple Ring True Damage], which might have ended the life of this behemoth.

But the current situation is... this damn snake has started to drag out the mark time! If it manages to drag out the time and the last lightning spear fails to kill it, then House is really doomed!

"Damn, Marathon B is speechless! Come out here! Don't be a cowardly lizard!!"

A few seconds left...maybe three seconds? Or maybe two?

Tsk... Is five seconds really too short for a disabled person?

Just as House was in despair, the crisp sound of countless white bones breaking rang out from behind him, accompanied by a deafening roar from the black snake. It leaped higher than ever before, its head almost reaching the cave's only exit.

House had no time to hesitate; he had to throw the lightning spear immediately! Without even time to aim, he merely caught a glimpse of the black snake's afterimage before unleashing the final lightning spear!

Crack!

The lightning roared and howled, tearing through the darkness like a rabid wolf, but then something happened that almost took House's breath away...

He missed.

Because of the inability to aim accurately, the lightning spear and the snake's head were misaligned. If nothing was done, the lightning spear would eventually miss the black snake by a hair's breadth.

But... House was almost in despair. What else could he do? Right now, it seemed he could only watch helplessly as all of this happened.

Damn, it's pretty good that a disabled person has managed to survive this long with just a lightning bolt gun!

Green, please help!

This trial of yours is really designed to torture people to death!

But Green did not appear. To the right of the snake's head was the entrance to escape the pit, where a faint light flickered, but there was not a single person in sight.

dead.

This word was imprinted in House's mind.

"roar!!"

With blood streaming from its eyes, the black snake let out a final roar, gathering every muscle in its body to prepare for this last strike. In half a second, the lightning spear would whiz past it.

It's a dead end; there's no other solution.

...or so?

As if he had attained enlightenment in Longchang, House's mind suddenly became clear at this critical moment, and he suddenly understood a profound truth.

In a world where might makes right, the law is weak.

Because fists will embolden the strong, while the law will protect the weak. Here, if you don't want to be weak, the first step is not to rely on anyone, not even to think about it.

On the brink of life and death, House's mind didn't flash between Green and Kieran.

Because he clearly knows that he cannot subconsciously rely on others.

But he didn't think about himself, because he knew he was at his wit's end and couldn't rely on himself.

So... what was he thinking about?

—It was his wheelchair.

"Damn, that's right! The wheelchair is still at the cave entrance! There's still a glimmer of hope in this desperate situation!!"

He clenched his right fist sharply: "Spinning slash—then charge forward! Charge forward! Charge forward!"

In an instant, sand and stones flew up from the cave entrance above, and a brown lightning bolt shot out of the cave at high speed!

*Pfft!* At this moment, man and chair become one!

House's wheelchair slammed directly into the snake's left eye! In an instant, the snake's eye burst open like tofu, and transparent tissue fluid splattered everywhere. The giant snake hissed in agony, its body tilted to the right by the impact, and it instinctively opened its mouth!

In that very instant, the last lightning spear was thrust directly into its throat!

--boom!!!

No longer was it the sound of thunder striking amidst the cries of birds; this time, it was as if lightning had struck right before our eyes. The giant snake was engulfed by a blinding flash, and countless plumes of black smoke billowed from its body.

[True damage from the third ring has been triggered!]

With a sharp crack like snapping celery stalks in House's ears—a deafening boom—House collapsed to the ground, utterly exhausted. The once-arrogant black snake closed its eyes and plunged heavily into the sea of ​​bones.
