Chapter 1135: Get Off Me
Chapter 1135: Get Off Me
Archer woke up with a yawn as Nala and Talila were cuddled up to him. This brought a smile to his face before using Blink to get out of bed. He reappeared by the window only to see dark clouds casting darkness across the sea.
The 1st Fleet had all the lights on, but it only reached a few meters away from the vessels. "What nightmare have we arrived in?" he thought.
Following that, he put some clothes on and wrapped a thick cloak around himself before walking toward the bridge. Five minutes later, he found Olivia and Elara chatting while looking out at the deck below.
Archer quickly realized there were fewer sailors than usual, most were still fast asleep. He walked up to the two women and, with a playful grin, slapped both of their asses, making them yelp in surprise.
Olivia was the first to spin around, her face lighting up with a big smile. "Morning, Arch," she greeted, pulling him into a kiss. "You scared me."'
Elara smiled warmly at him and quickly wrapped him in a tight hug. "It's good to see you, my love," she said, her voice soft. "We were just talking about the weather."
Archer chuckled at their reactions as he embraced the redhead while replying to the white- haired woman, "Sorry Liv, I can't help myself touching you both," he said.
He turned to Elara and answered, "This weather is giving me a strange feeling. Is there anywhere the fleet could avoid the incoming storm?"
When the two women heard this, they got confused just as Olivia questioned, "Storm?"
Archer nodded before pointing out of the window. "A Primordial monster is heading in our direction that the Swarm has sent after me. You need to anchor the fleet in some kind of bay because things will become chaotic."
Elara's eyes widened in shock, while Olivia's face drained of color as his words unsettled her. Archer gave them both a reassuring smile, placing a hand on each of their shoulders with a cocky grin.
"It may be a Primordial, but I'm not weak either," he said confidently. "I'll give it a good fight. Long enough to buy you the time you need to escape."
"Why not let us fight with you? The 1st isn't weak Arch!" Olivia protested as she steeled herself.
"Ari and Brooke are already tied up with another group of monsters, and this one is here for me," Archer said, his voice firm as he met their concerned gazes. "But I'll find a way to win like I always do. You, however, need to focus on saving the fleet."'
With a last glance at the women, Archer stepped onto the balcony and summoned his wings. He took off, soaring through the air toward the monstrous threat. As he drew closer, his eyes widened in disbelief.
The enemy wasn't just any Swarm monster but a colossal dragon, its size staggering and its presence overwhelming. That didn't bother him as he let out an earth-shaking roar that was met with another.
In an instant, Archer transformed into his dragon form as he collided with the red dragon. They clashed mid-air, a flurry of teeth and claws. The red dragon lunged forward, snapping its jaws, but he twisted his agile body just in time to dodge the attack.
With a counter, he raked his claws across its side, drawing a roar of fury. The enemy recoiled briefly, then spoke with a menacing voice. "So, Tiamat resurrects the White Dragon and thinks she can control us all? What a laughable delusion."
Archer hovered in the air after throwing the red dragon off to the side and replied with a smug grin, "Oh I will rule over every dragon across Thrylos, if any refuse like yourself, I'll kill you."
The enemy started laughing and started casting dozens of powerful fire spells that sliced through the sky. Archer tried to dodge, but the projectiles slammed into his body, which sent him crashing into the sea below.
His scales cracked and blood poured out of a wound that opened up on his chest. Archer gritted his teeth as the pain washed over him, 'Fuck, I forgot Pseudo-Gods can harm me,' he thought while shaking his head.
Suddenly, the red dragon crashed into Archer from above. At the same moment, a monstrous sea creature surged up from below, its massive tentacles coiling around his torso, dragging him toward the deep sea.
'Oh shit! Who's getting involved now?' he thought.
Archer struggled against the crushing grip, but just as he began to lose ground thanks to being attacked from two sides, Demetra appeared out of nowhere, her jaws snapping through the thick tentacles with a fierce bite.
Freed from the sea monster's grasp, Archer seized the moment. With a roar, he slashed his claws down the red dragon's side, carving deep gashes into its scales even as it sank its teeth into his shoulder.
"Get off me, motherfucker!" he raged as the pain was searing, but he pushed through it, refusing to surrender as the battle raged on in a storm of fury and blood.
Following that, Archer breathed his breath into the enemy's head, which freed him from its bite. He used Blink to appear in the air as the red dragon followed behind while letting out a rage-filled roar.
Archer was just about to strike, but a chaotic breath slammed into the enemy monster. Orange and silver fire followed soon over. This caused him to glance in the attack's direction, only to see Talila, Nyx, and Maeve in their dragon forms coming to help him.
They were nowhere near as big as them, but the women still attacked. Nyx swooped low before crashing into the bottom of the red dragon just as the other two struck and tore into the monster.
'Beautiful, I need to pamper these women when this is over,' he thought with a grin.
Archer watched this with wide eyes, but he quickly intervened as the enemy started throwing the women off him as they attacked. He crashed into the red dragon as it raged, "You need your women to help! I can smell your scent all over them. You're a coward, White Dragon."'
Wasting no time, he turned back into his humanoid form mid-air, gathering mana into his fist as he cast Nova Punch. The moment his fist collided with the red dragon's snout, a deafening clap reverberated through the air, sending shockwaves rippling outward.
The impact was so forceful that it was sent hurtling down into the ocean below. Archer didn't relent. He transformed back into his dragon form, diving after his fallen foe. As he reached the water's surface, he unleashed a hail of slashes, his claws tearing into its scaled hide.
Blood sprayed into the sea, turning the waters crimson as Archer carved deep, furious wounds into his enemy, refusing to let it recover. The red dragon was getting overwhelmed as the four women jumped into the fray.
Archer slashed furiously at the monster's scales, carving deep gouges as the others joined the assault. Demetra charged, ramming her shoulder into the dragon's side, but her efforts barely
left a mark.
In revenge, the beast lashed out with its tail, striking her and sending the shark woman hurtling through the water. It then lunged at Nyx, jaws wide open, but Archer threw himself in
its path.
The red dragon's jaws clamped down on Archer's leg with a sickening crunch. He roared in agony as the beast tore his limb clean off, sending a white-hot surge of pain ripping through his entire body like wildfire.
He quickly blasted it with a dozen Eldritch Blasts that slammed into the enemy's body and tore chunks off it thanks to already being weakened. As that happened, he charged in and bit down on the red dragon's neck.
The two clashed violently, their claws destroyed scales, flesh, and bone in a furious exchange. Archer winced as he felt another leg go limp, nerves severed by the dragon's assault. Gritting his teeth, he retaliated with a savage strike, tearing the creature's wings clean off in a spray of blood and scales. That's when the women joined in once again and swamped the red
dragon.
Archer and the dragon relentlessly tore into each other, neither willing to back down. With a brutal snap, the beast ripped one of Archer's wings, causing it to collapse, sending them both spiraling toward the ocean below.
They crashed into the water with a deafening roar; the impact shattering the surface and plunging them into chaos where Demetra was already waiting, poised to strike. The shark woman roared as she bit down on the red dragon.
It was overwhelming Archer as the injuries finally caught up, but he didn't give up. That's when the world stopped as a large translucent Elemental appeared from his body and hammer-punched the enemy dragon.
The women scattered as Demetra seized Archer by the tail, urgently dragging him to safety.
