Dota: Becoming a God Starting with Dragon Knight
Chapter 15 Escape
Rick struck a cool pose and pretended to lick the bone knife.
"Hmph~ Anyone who tries to mess with Rick will pay with their life!"
"Hahaha!"
He turned his head to look behind him, ready to admire his victory.
Where are they?
"Impossible, I clearly killed him. Could it be an illusion?"
Rick let out a furious shriek, ordering the scattered skeletons around him to report what had just happened.
Beside him, Li Ming had transformed into a giant dragon and was invisible under the effect of the [Shadow Amulet].
He patted his chest lightly, trying to calm his rapidly beating heart.
"Damn it, thank goodness I have a lot of life-saving items, otherwise I would be dead."
Just now, at the instant the head and body were separated, the [Eternal Disc] was activated, the damage was reset to zero, and the severed head was reconnected to the body under the effect of the [Eternal Disc].
"We only have the Ghost Scepter left to save our lives, we need to get going."
Li Ming flapped his wings and took to the air, the wind from which his wings flapped instantly catching Rick's attention.
He now knew from the images transmitted by the surrounding skeletons that Li Ming had not died, but instead appeared unharmed in a white light as if time had reversed.
His repeated failed attacks infuriated him.
Upon discovering Li Ming's location, Rick unhesitatingly used his ultimate move.
"Thousand Blades Kill!"
The energy within his body gathered on the bone blade, and a beam of light slashed towards where Li Ming was.
Wherever the bone knife passes, countless bone blades appear out of thin air, slashing down alongside it.
"Ghost Form!"
Li Ming no longer cared about conserving his life-saving items; he instantly activated the [Ghost Scepter], turning his body into a semi-transparent state.
The bone knife, with its densely packed bone blades, pierced through his body without causing him any harm.
"Luckily, this golden skeleton is a warrior, mainly using physical attacks. If it had encountered someone who uses magic, it would have been terrible."
Li Ming didn't know whether his luck was good or bad, but he had managed to dodge another fatal attack.
"An eye for an eye, skeleton monster, take this!"
Li Ming's tail flashed past, leaving a trail of afterimages, and before Rick could react, it struck him.
[Dragon Tail Sweep] is the Dragon Knight's second attack skill. It doesn't deal much damage, only slightly stronger than his normal attack, and it's not enough to break Rick's defense.
However, this skill has a stun effect; at level 4, it can stun the hit target for 2.4 seconds.
He had tested this skill before when fighting gray skeletons in a sea of skeletons, and the 2.4-second stun duration was real.
Sure enough, after being slapped by the dragon's tail, Rick's vision went black and he fell into a daze.
Immediately afterwards, Li Ming breathed a burst of fiery energy onto Rick.
As the flames subsided, unsurprisingly, Rick's golden bones didn't even change color.
"grass!"
Without saying a word, Li Ming picked up the bone knife from the ground, spread his wings, and flew away.
When Rick regained consciousness from his dizziness, Li Ming was nowhere to be seen.
"roar--"
"Find him! If you don't find that inhuman creature, nobody's getting any rest today!"
Rick was furious. He had been tricked so many times, and his bone knife had even been stolen. He had never felt so frustrated since becoming a third-tier gold-level expert.
"My carefully nurtured sword has been stolen!!!"
"He definitely planned this. I can't even sense the knife anymore."
Rick's bone knife is the one he's used since he was a gray skeleton soldier. It has been nurtured by his energy and has long been connected to his soul.
He could sense the knife no matter where it was, but now he couldn't sense it at all.
"That guy isn't a thief, is he?"
"Damn it, that must be it. That guy must be a disciple of some old bastard high-level thief. Only a thief would have so many strange gadgets, and even gadgets that specifically block my senses."
"Damn it, don't let me find you!"
"Next time, I'll make you pay."
Rick angrily kicked the ground, creating a crater, and ran quickly toward the Forest Gate.
The skeletons near the Forest Gate just sent word that someone resembling Lina is approaching, and he needs to go back to defend.
In the sky, Li Ming watched Rick leave and breathed a sigh of relief.
"Thank you, Mage Lina."
He was currently inside a small barrier, and those outside could not see what was inside.
Behind him, Lina lay half-reclined on a chair, her large mage robes draped casually over her body, and several plates of fruit and snacks were placed on a small table beside her.
He had just flown into the sky and crashed into this small barrier when he immediately discovered that Lina was eating sunflower seeds in the sky, watching his death throes, which infuriated him.
However, thanks to Lina's small barrier, the connection between Bone Knife and Rick was severed.
Otherwise, Rick would definitely have attacked based on his connection with the bone knife.
Lina, holding up her juice, replied, "You're welcome. Although you initially refused me, we're both human, so it's only right that I help you out."
"Thank you. Now that Rick is gone, I'll take my leave too. I wish you success on your mission. Consider this bone knife my reward."
After being informed of the connection between the bone knife and Rick, Li Ming decided against keeping the bone knife, even though it seemed like a knife that could cut through iron like mud.
"Li Ming, are you just leaving like this?" Lina asked lazily.
"Yeah!" Li Ming looked at Lina, "Oh~ you don't like this bone knife? Then... would you like this amulet? It can make you invisible after activation."
"It's a pretty good magical item." Lina took the [Shadow Amulet], channeled energy into it, and tried it out. "However, I can become invisible myself, so I don't need this."
"If you give me your few life-saving items, I might accept them," Lina joked, twirling the [Shadow Amulet] in her hand.
"Ah...it might not be possible for now, but if we meet again in the future, that would be fine."
"Huh? You mean you can get that kind of item?" Upon hearing this, Lina immediately sat up straight from her languid posture.
"No, no." Li Ming realized he had misspoke and quickly denied it. "I meant that I probably won't need these props anymore in the future, so I can give them to you then."
"Not needed?"
"Yeah, these items only last for a short time and aren't very useful."
"Hey~" Lina rolled her eyes, thinking to herself, "This guy is really just a country bumpkin who doesn't know anything. He's just lucky. I don't know what kind of opportunity he got to become a superhuman and obtain these heaven-defying items."
"Shorter time is good, shorter time is more advanced, only high-level extraordinary beings can use it."
"If I had these props..."
"Forget it, I am the daughter of a great general, I cannot do such a despicable thing."
Lina chuckled softly and slumped back into the chair.
"Alright! If you ever want to give me these props when you no longer need them, I definitely won't refuse."
"However, I stopped you not to ask for any reward. Saving you, a first-tier bronze, was just a small favor."
"I just wanted to ask you, where are you planning to go?"
"You can't enter the Elf Forest; the outer perimeter is ravaged by undead armies. Where can you go?"
Li Ming glanced at Lina's graceful figure on the recliner, but then felt it was impolite, especially since she was much stronger than him. He quickly turned his head away and looked elsewhere.
"Are there many undead? I can transform into a dragon and fly in the sky, and I can also become invisible. At worst, it will just take me a little longer to fly."
"Even if I'm discovered, I'm not afraid of these ordinary skeletons. And even if golden skeletons appear, I'm prepared and can handle them."
Li Ming did not mention that his transformation into a giant dragon and his invisibility were time-limited.
Lina scoffed, "You think there are only skeletons? You think the strongest is the Golden Skull?"
"Hey, this used to be the territory of the Kingdom of Beth, but now it's all taken over by the undead. Besides skeletons, there are quite a few other races, I heard there are even bone dragons."
