Confess System: Picking Up Girls After Girls, Try Not to Get Killed!-Chapter 171 Flame Dance

The Crimson Flame Dragon feigned a bite before promptly spreading its wings, leaping into the air, intent on crushing Tyler under its claws.

However, Tyler had already seen through its intentions. He rolled sideways on the spot, evading the dragon's claws and maneuvering to its rear, standing up to stab the Venomous Blade - Poison Claw into the dragon's backdoor! ( oωo )

A metallic clang sounded as Tyler's attack was deflected once again, much to his surprise. He hadn't expected the dragon's backdoor to be armored with scales!

The Crimson Flame Dragon, feeling violated, instantly became furious.

The indignant dragon violently swung its tail around on the spot. Tyler, thanks to the red light warning, managed to dodge forward, but by the time he stood up, the red light warning had entirely surrounded him.

The dragon raised its head high, readying another dragon roar, and Tyler had no time to evade!

(Calculation Boost - Overclock!)

In the blink of an eye, Tyler had the thought of using "Shadow Step", but he ultimately chose to cover his ears and crouch on the spot.

The next second, the dragon's thunderous roar disoriented him, the deafening sound making everything unclear for a moment, as his entire body trembled.

(Damn... I overestimated myself...) 𝑏𝘦𝑑𝘯𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝘰𝘮

ραΠdαsΝοvel.cοm Tyler staggered to his feet, the close-range dragon roar not only cost him 117 life points (281-117 / 300), but also rendered him temporarily immobile.

What's more, the Crimson Flame Dragon wouldn't wait for Tyler to recover from the dizziness.

It leaped on the spot, located Tyler's position, and then, its body ablaze with anger, the Crimson Flame Dragon released a large amount of magical power onto its surface!

In an instant, the scorching magical power ignited the dragon's scales, transforming it into a literal flame dragon in this moment.

Without giving Tyler a chance to react, the dragon lunged straight at him, followed by a tail swipe on the spot. The raging flames, with the dragon at its center, formed a high-speed rotating fire vortex, incinerating everything around!

This was the second stage skill of the Crimson Flame Dragon, "Flame Dance"!

— (Shameless human! This is what you get for disgracing me!)

After releasing its skill, the Crimson Flame Dragon looked back at the charred ground, feeling very satisfied.

Such a shameless human should be burned to ashes!

The Crimson Flame Dragon, having taken its revenge, roared to the sky and sat down on the spot to rest.

However, what the dragon didn't know was that not far away, in the shadow of the stone pillar, the human it thought it had burned to ashes had somehow moved there and was also resting.

.

(That was too close... If it weren't for "Shadow Step", I would have died back there.)

Although Tyler was resting, he greatly reduced his breathing to avoid being detected by the Crimson Flame Dragon.

He was now restoring his endurance while waiting for the 30-second cooldown of "Shadow Step".

Tyler was forced to use "Shadow Step" just now but was blessed in disguise as he was able to witness the second skill of the Crimson Flame Dragon, causing it to waste as much as 300 points of magic energy.

The more arrogant a person (or dragon) is, the easier it is to get angry, a rule Tyler had read in psychology books.

And when one is enraged, they often make irrational actions, such as using a flashy skill when it could have simply bitten Tyler to death.

After two rounds of confrontation, Tyler had lost half of his life energy, but his magic energy still had room for operation.

━━━━━━━━━

Tyler

Life Energy: 164 / 300

Endurance: 112 / 280

Magic Energy: 1487 / 2530

━━━━━━━━━

In contrast, the Crimson Flame Dragon's life energy was almost undamaged, its endurance was abundant, and it had only used a little more magic energy.

Crimson Flame Dragon

Life Energy: 4783 / 4791

Endurance: 3131 / 3682

Magic Energy: 727 / 1127

Tyler summarized his experiences from the previous battles and began to develop a new strategy.

First, he considered tactics revolving around the Venomous Blade - Poison Claw. He could try the dragon's abdomen next, and if that also didn't work, he would have to abandon the strategy of stacking poison buffs on the Crimson Flame Dragon.

Next, he considered the Shadow Sword Blaze Steed, a move Tyler was reluctant to use.

Given Tyler's remaining magic energy, he could only use "Blue Flame Steed," which consumes 444 points of magic energy, twice.

If he used it a third time, he wouldn't have enough magic energy left, triggering the magic sword's backlash. Considering his remaining 164 life points, Tyler didn't think he could survive a "Flame of Retribution" like Oliver, the branch chief.

Other than that, after deducting the magic energy allocated to "Blue Blaze Steed", Tyler only had 155 points of magic energy left for other skills.

That bit of magic energy is not even enough for one use of "Shadow Step" (200 points).

Therefore, the prerequisite for Tyler to use the Shadow Sword Blaze Steed is that "Blue Blaze Steed" can cause more than 2392 points of damage to the Crimson Flame Dragon in one hit, and then end the battle within two hits.

But is 2392 points possible?

After witnessing the Crimson Flame Dragon's skill "Flame Dance", Tyler didn't think that an attack of the same fire type could cause such high damage to it.

Without exception, the fire resistance of the Crimson Flame Dragon should be very high.

(No good, I still have to think of an attack method other than "Blue Blaze Steed"...)

While Tyler was still thinking, for some reason, the Crimson Flame Dragon flew up.

At first, Tyler thought the opponent had discovered his breath and quickly hid behind the stone pillar, but then he found out that the creature just simply wanted to fly around for a bit.

(Come to think of it, this Crimson Flame Dragon is different from the shadow duplicates in the first round. It seems like a real creature.)

(So, was it summoned from the outside by the magic circle?)

Thinking of this, Tyler understood the motive of the Crimson Flame Dragon's flight.

This demon must be looking for a way out of here. However, between Tyler and the Crimson Flame Dragon, neither can leave this trial space until one of them dies.

Looking at the soaring Crimson Flame Dragon and then the wilderness, Tyler had an idea.

·

"Hey! Stupid dragon! Your dad is here!" (Evilkind language)

After restoring his endurance, Tyler stood up and shouted loudly to attract the attention of the Crimson Flame Dragon.

Soon, the Crimson Flame Dragon found Tyler. It first wondered why this human hadn't died, then turned and dove toward Tyler!

The Crimson Flame Dragon's thinking was simple, if it didn't kill him before, it just needed to kill him again!

As for Tyler, seeing the Crimson Flame Dragon's diving speed getting faster and faster, he was very satisfied. This was the effect he wanted.

When the diving speed of the Crimson Flame Dragon had reached the point where it couldn't change direction, Tyler first threw three smoke bombs on the spot, then activated "Heart of Focus" and shot six arrows straight at the dragon's eyes!
