Chapter 325: Null

The attributes on the panel only told part of the story. Just as Red Pupil possessed skills like "Magnification" and "Berserk," Dragon Flossie too wielded formidable abilities that amplified her stats. When her already superior attributes (compared to ordinary ants) combined with these potent skills, the enhancement became truly terrifying.

Thus, after just one strike, Lin Yu witnessed Red Pupil’s Health Value plummet by nearly a third! While Red Pupil’s delayed activation of defensive skills played a role, the sheer intensity of the attack was undeniable—especially considering her status as the ant tribe’s pinnacle of Physical Resistance Ability.

Yet raw power wasn’t the most vexing aspect. The true nightmare lay in the skill "Overspeed Regeneration," an advanced evolution of "Regeneration" so absurdly effective that severed wings regenerated completely before hitting the ground. With this ability, the dragon remained perpetually at peak condition.

Returning to the present:

After repelling her foe, Flossie—her wings now fully restored—beat them with thunderous force, conjuring a violent whirlwind that tore through the air toward the Iron Armored Ant. The dragon surged forward in the gale’s wake, closing the distance to Red Pupil.

Trapped midair, the ant could only hastily activate "Smooth Body" and "Magic Scale." The whirlwind’s fury first slid harmlessly off her greased carapace before clashing against shimmering scales. Even diminished, the remaining wind-type magic still battered Red Pupil’s form.

A casual strike from Flossie, mitigated by dual defenses… yet it stripped away nearly ten percent of Health Value. And the assault continued.

The dragon materialized before Red Pupil as the whirlwind struck. Draconic lungs swelled—a breath attack coalesced and erupted.

BOOM!

Though hastily conjured, this draconic exhalation dwarfed even Earth Dragon Aier’s earlier effort. Another direct hit would spell disaster.

Mimicking her strategy against the earth dragon, Red Pupil dissolved her transformation at the critical moment. The colossal Iron Armored Ant shrank into a plummeting black-haired loli. Searing breath grazed her cheek, scorching a charred trench through distant snowfields.

Flossie’s momentary surprise at the evasion lasted only until her claws lashed out, slicing air where the girl fell. Whether as towering ant or tiny humanoid, transformation altered only mass—not attributes. The dragon’s statistical superiority pressed Red Pupil relentlessly.

Millennia of combat granted Flossie more than levels; her experience outmatched the ant’s completely. Seamless combinations of martial prowess and spellcraft denied any reprieve. Red Pupil could barely parry, let alone counterstrike.

Close quarters brought crushing blows. Retreat invited elemental onslaught.

Fire. Water. Wind. Earth. Eons had taught Flossie countless magics, mundane spells morphing monstrous in her claws. A novice’s "Water Ball" became a barrage of bathtub-sized projectiles. Every attack, whether spell or swipe, carried ruinous force.

Within breaths, the girl’s body bloomed with crimson wounds. Yet her Health Value’s descent slowed paradoxically.

The secret lay in "Undead Crowd." Though paralyzed by Flossie’s "Dragon Roar," Class B ants still channeled damage away through the skill. Human-town potions also proved crucial—medium-grade brews offered scant relief, but Manfel’s pharmacists had recently perfected high-tier variants.

While inferior to "Magnification’s" boosts, these elite elixirs—Magic Recovery Potions, Life Recovery Potions, attribute enhancers—nonetheless tipped scales. Through "Magic Backpack," Red Pupil materialized vials directly before her mouth, crunching glass and all mid-combat.

Such measures barely maintained her defense…

Yet now, Flossie’s emerald eyes narrowed. Multiple kill-strikes had failed—dragonfire and cataclysmic spells connecting only to dim into glowing motes that rained upon surface and subterranean ants.

*A damage-sharing skill?* The dragon reassessed. Her gaze pierced earth, sensing hordes below.

*Eradicate the weak first,* she resolved, abandoning Red Pupil to descend upon the paralyzed B-Class ants—

WHOOSH!

Twin figures materialized flanking her: a green-haired girl spraying acidic mist across dragon wings, a blonde warrior striking at the corroded patches with gleaming steel.
