SSS Awakening: Rebirth of the Strongest Vampire God novel Chapter 120

Chapter 120: Stop him!

The sudden appearance of the massive serpent brought chaos to a screeching halt.

Elina unfurled with grace and elegance, her scales a shifting mosaic of yellow and ember-red, glinting like gold in the sunlight. Her eyes were vertical slits of liquid gold, radiating a chilling sentience that made everyone hold their breaths.

"...That’s little to him?" someone whispered in horror.

The snake’s presence warped the air around her, heat waves shimmered unnaturally, and the scent of scorched earth filled the air despite no fire being cast. As she hissed, her tongue forked out with a flick that crackled faint sparks. Her sheer presence alone was suffocating.

"Elina," Damon called casually, lifting a finger toward the seal-dome’s sky. "Break that for me, would you?"

With a terrifying rumble, the snake coiled back, muscles tightening like a loaded spring. Then she launched upward, crashing her fanged maw into the ceiling of the dome. The impact was deafening. Magic lines flared in the sky-blue barrier like a spiderweb snapping in slow motion.

Thorne panicked. "No! Not yet! Stop her!"

Magicaa’s eyes widened. "How powerful is that snake?" However, his expression immediately changed. Without any hesitation, he made his move.

With a flick of his hand, the crimson spell circle beneath his feet expanded, igniting the very air with runes of burning gold. "You’re not the only one with a snake," he murmured coldly.

The flames erupted upward, twisting and coiling into shape, a blazing serpent of pure fire, easily the same size as Elina. Its eyes burned with molten fury, and its tongue lashed like a whip of lava. The summoned beast let out a shrill screech that melted the ground beneath it as it launched itself toward Elina in a flash of fury.

The two titanic reptiles collided mid-air.

The impact coincidentally shook the barrier. Damon saw his opportunity. He shot forward towards the small hole at top speed. Bertram, Thorne, and Magicaa also saw what was happening, but Magicaa was simply not fast enough.

Thorne and Bertam rushed to Damon, but it was already too late. The crimson fire lance blazed to life in Damon’s hand, its molten tip screaming through the air like a meteor on a mission. He hurled it toward the shimmering tear in the collapsing dome, and the moment it struck—

BOOM.

The entire dome exploded in a fiery cascade of mana. Blue shards of sealing magic rained down like glassy hail, disintegrating before they could even touch the ground.

The Space Lock Seal shattered, its structured matrix unraveling violently. The Equipment Lock Seal followed moments later, unable to sustain itself under the assault of Elina’s might and Damon’s devastating timing.

[Ding! Space Lock Seal has been destroyed.]

[Ding! Blood Extraction is successful.]

Damon wiped the blood on his hand and turned just in time to see Elina unleashing another molten breath over the battlefield. The few remaining players were either running or screaming. Thorne was nowhere to be seen. Probably fled. Probably shitting himself.

Time to go. He dismissed the snake and got the hell out of there. Within a few breaths, he reached the nearest city and took the teleportation portal to head back to Nieria. Only after reaching the underground vampire lair, he finally let out a breath of relief.

Damon had actually sensed it. Right as he was using the teleportation portals, he could sense several powerful auras descending down on the forest outskirts near the dungeon. He had just narrowly escaped a big mess.

They were not normal NPCs. He could tell. His hands were still shaking. Whatever they were, Damon knew one thing. If he had delayed even five more seconds, he would’ve been annihilated.

He needs to pull it together fast. Even idiots can sometimes use the right trap, and he would be done for!

Still thinking about the close call, Damon walked over to the blood hall rebuilding panel and submitted the last of the mana cores needed. With the three runs of the fire temple dungeon, he had more than enough normal mana cores and elite mana cores.
