As Emerald restrained the beasts and as Drake realized their weakness, he had to fully concentrate on his job. He had noticed that Drake was struggling, and because he was the one doing the least, he recklessly jumped into action.
"With this Divine Power I've been accumulating inside of me since I got here, I feel like I could even fly without my wings!"
Emerald lifted himself off the ground using winds alone, levitating! This was a spell he couldn't conjure no matter how hard he had tried before.
It seemed that whatever was stopping him from doing so, wasn't just talent or something… It was fear. He had grown afraid of flying after his winds were broken and he was exiled from his home.
However, with Drake's words, and the company of all these wonderful people… He slowly overcame his fears as his desire to protect them and help them became much stronger.
"I don't need my damn wings to fly!" He roared. "[Divine Heaven's Wind Magic]: [Sylphid's Heavenly Cages]!"
FLUOOOOSSSSHHH…!
Conjuring he tornadoes that caged the aberrant plants, he managed to help Drake take them down one after another! However, this powerful spell he had been taught and just seemed to be able to conjure after accumulating lots of Divine Power, was too straining on his mind!
And due to that, his concentration had to be almost of 100%! That, of course, gave opening to others from attacking him.
"SHYAAAAAGH!"
Four other Boss Clones appeared behind him, leaping off the ground and opening their massive Venus fly trap-like jaws! Emerald panicked, he was much less tougher than Drake, a few bites and he would surely die!
"Shit!"
SLAAASH! SLAAASH! SLAAASH!
However, in that very moment, countless slashing attacks imbued with chaotic energies and chaotic flames were unleashed against the beasts, cutting them down into pieces! One of them died on the spot, its core shattering and being consumed by miasma and chaotic flames, even.
"Are you alright there, Emerald?"
Benladann appeared right above him, smiling confidently at the young wind dragon! Emerald felt incredibly relieved that there were many strong fighters here.
"Yeah! Thank you for helping me out, Aunt Benladann!"
"RAAAAHHH!"
Meanwhile, Drake landed on each tornado of lightning and winds, crushing the boss clones one after another and destroying their cores, his efficiency became faster the moment he realized they had cores inside.
"[Divine Dragon Eyes]!"
He activated a powerful Draconic Art, his eyes illuminating with the power of analyzing and appraising everything, fused with his System Unique Skill, he quickly managed to detect the cores inside their bodies once he realized they existed to begin with.
"I knew something so ridiculous had to have some sort of weakness!" He thought. "After all, that they all can multiply endlessly is already too ridiculous. The clones are also not as strong as the original!"
As he slashed through their bodies or smashed them into smithereens with his five almighty weapons, Drake unleashed his Dragon Aura, fused with all his Divinities to attack towards all sides.
Giant dragon claws made of rainbow draconic energy constantly crushed and slashed the plant boss clones, opening them up for him to destroy before the green beads inside were to duplicate into two, birthing new clones!
CLAAASH! CLAAASH! CLAAASH! CLAAASH!
One after another, he kept progressing, the over thirty bosses that had formed over time were quickly going down, finally being less than ten!
"Almost there- Huh?!"
However, Drake, Emerald, and Benladann quickly felt a huge divine presence, coming from the skies! Countless red eyes glaring down at them…
"What the…?! This pressure…!"
Emerald felt an immense pressure as his magic stopped working in that split of a second, the plant boss clones freed themselves once the opportunity was given!
"SHYAAAGGH!"
Three of them cornered Emerald, smashing him into the ground with their vines!
BAAAAMMM…!
"GRAAAGHH…!"
The young wind dragon vomited blood, feeling several of his bones break. Drake panicked, trying to go for Emerald's rescue, only to be surrounded by the other six clones!
"You sore fucking loser! Are you so cowardly you even came here to stop us?!" Drake roared into the skies, the countless red eyes exuding a strong pressure.
"FOOD… YOU'RE ALL… FOOD…! DIE… DIE ALREADY! DIE! DIE! DIE!"
The voice of the abomination within the center of this Dungeon echoed a strong crimson aura covered the bodies of the cloned bosses! This crimson aura started to give them greater strength, and their bodies distorted, turning from green to red, and becoming even more demonic.
Ding!
[The [Dungeon Core] has decided to intervene! They have conjured the [Crimson Aura of Demonification] on all clones of [Test Subejct-02]!]
[This powerful Aura has transformed their bodies, giving them greater Demonic Power, and increasing All their Stats by +200%!]
"You've gotta be fucking kidding me!"
"SHAAAAAHH!"
The six giant plants rushed towards Drake, their giant and muscular, red-colored vines wrapping around his entire body. He constantly cut them down but more and more kept coming, Drake was being strangled by all of them, while their giant jaws were constantly biting his body apart!
"RAAAAHHHHH!!!"
With a frustrated scream of pure anger and pain, Drake's entire body erupted with all his tremendous force, hundreds of thousands of Divine Power spent in that shockwave, all the plant boss clones were thrown several meters away from him!
"Hahhh… Hahhh…"
His body slowly started to regenerate as he activated Immortal Body with even more Divine Power. His body undergoing his ultimate transformation into a Dragon King, absorbing all his forms into one!
"I'm not going to go down against a bunch of fucking dream monsters!"
With a brutal roar, Drake rushed towards the nearest one, his claws piercing its entire body as he had more than ten arms! His weapons slashing and clashing against the demonic plant boss clone as the creature countered with endless biting blows, Drake was being eaten alive!
"I'LL EAT YOU TOO, FUCKER!"
With a mighty roar, Drake opened his jaws, his eyes all turning red out of nowhere as Demonic Power surged… from within him!
The Demon King Seed started to germinate rapidly, its roots spreading across his heart.
"RAAAHHHH!!!"
His Aura and powers combined together into an enormous draconic jaw made of swirling black and crimson energies, biting apart the entire plant monster and devouring completely!
CRUUUNCH! CRUUUNCH! CRUUUNCH!
