Heroes' Prison

Chapter 825 - 781: Body of the Holy Dragon

Huang Yi flew onto the Harbinger of Doomsday, consuming another 10 points of the Power of the Nefalem. He fused with the Barbarian God once again and started attacking the Harbinger of Doomsday with immense attack power.

As he attacked, he also summoned Little Dragon!

Little Dragon was currently only at a few dozen levels, not even reaching Level 100. The Golden Holy Dragon’s strength was barely being exhibited.

Meanwhile, Huang Yi’s Godslayer Era had just advanced to the Epic level, gaining a passive skill called "Experience Gift." When killing a boss NPC 30 levels higher than himself, he could grant his contracted partner the same amount of experience points.

This passive skill was perfect for leveling up Little Dragon.

"Woof woof!" After being summoned, Little Dragon excitedly shook its little head, snuggling vigorously in Huang Yi’s arms, flapping its tiny wings, and acting all spoiled.

"Little Dragon, your barking totally ruins your image! Of all the things to learn, you had to mimic a dog’s bark!" Huang Yi said while stroking Little Dragon’s head and continuing his attacks on the Harbinger of Doomsday.

Little Dragon stared at Huang Yi with big, curious eyes like an inquisitive child. A bubble of snot popped from its little nose, which it promptly wiped on Huang Yi’s clothes.

It seemed as though Little Dragon would never truly grow up. Even if it could temporarily enlarge its body, its mentality remained childlike, mischievous, and carefree, completely lacking the majesty or demeanor of a Golden Holy Dragon when facing Huang Yi, its master.

Little Dragon noticed Huang Yi attacking the massive Harbinger of Doomsday. Its big eyes blinked with curiosity before it flew down, landing on the Harbinger of Doomsday’s back. Folding its small wings, it lifted its little claws and stomped experimentally, seemingly trying to figure out what this thing was.

"Woof woof!" Upon seeing the magma flowing out of the Harbinger of Doomsday, Little Dragon’s eyes lit up, and it eagerly rushed over to lap at it.

The magma, which was boiling hot and could even make seawater boil, caused no harm to Little Dragon. On the contrary, it seemed to be some kind of nourishing tonic for it.

Little Dragon naturally had a fire attribute constitution. After advancing into its growth phase, it had awakened a skill called "Flames of the Holy Dragon," which allowed it to spit fire imbued with 50% holy damage as Sacred Flame.

"Little one, since you love the Harbinger of Doomsday’s blood so much, let me help you!" At this moment, the Tidal Calling Siren Princess aboard the Cloud Sail Battleship smiled maternally upon seeing Little Dragon enthusiastically absorbing the Harbinger of Doomsday’s flames. She extended her graceful finger and made a slight gesture toward the vast sea.

Immediately, a strange phenomenon occurred across the ocean. Streams of fiery magma separated from the seawater and continuously converged toward Little Dragon.

These fiery-red lights were blood from the Harbinger of Doomsday that had flowed into the sea during its earlier battle with the Deep Sea Demon Flesh. However, the blood’s powerful essence prevented it from mixing with the seawater, causing it to remain coagulated and unextinguished.

"Woof woof!" Little Dragon barked in gratitude toward the Tidal Calling Siren Princess before opening its mouth to voraciously consume the Harbinger of Doomsday’s blood pouring in from all directions.

Once the blood was entirely absorbed, Little Dragon let out a satisfied burp. At that moment, Huang Yi received a system prompt.

"[System Prompt]: Your contracted partner, Little Dragon, has absorbed the Blood of the Apocalypse, enhancing the skill [Flames of the Holy Dragon]."

Indeed, after consuming the Harbinger of Doomsday’s blood, Little Dragon’s fire-based skill was further enhanced. Huang Yi checked the updated skill description—

[Flames of the Holy Dragon]: Emit sacred flames to deal 60% holy damage and 40% fire damage to enemies within a certain range. Affected enemies will have their movement speed reduced by 30% for the next 24 hours. The broader the area covered by the flames, the weaker the damage; the more concentrated the flames, the stronger the damage. The maximum range of the flames is 250 meters in radius. The duration of flame emission per day cannot exceed a number of seconds equal to the Golden Holy Dragon’s level value. This skill can improve and unlock additional effects as the Golden Holy Dragon’s power increases.

After the enhancement, the holy damage percentage increased from 50% to 60%. The movement speed reduction went from 20% to 30%, and the maximum range expanded from 200 meters to 250 meters. Every stat had gotten a boost.

Next, Little Dragon dutifully joined Huang Yi in attacking the Harbinger of Doomsday, continuing to absorb the remaining blood within its massive body.

With the combined assault of man and dragon, it only took a few more minutes before the Harbinger of Doomsday’s remaining health was finally depleted!

The once invincible deity, the Harbinger of Doomsday, was finally defeated!

At that moment, an enormous amount of experience points flooded toward Huang Yi, crashing over him like a tidal wave and pouring into his Reincarnation Experience Pool. Like with the Deep Sea Demon Flesh before, the Harbinger of Doomsday’s level difference with Huang Yi exceeded 150 levels, granting him an extraordinary amount of bonus experience, further enhanced by the "Experience Gift" passive skill from Godslayer Era—effectively doubling the rewards!

Huang Yi eagerly anticipated what would happen when Reincarnation finally ended. Even he couldn’t imagine how many levels he might gain once the accumulated experience all came flooding at once!

However, Little Dragon’s level increase was far more immediate and striking!

After all, contracted partners also undergo reincarnation when their masters do. However, since Little Dragon was only at a few dozen levels, its reincarnation had already concluded long ago.

Now, benefiting from the "Experience Gift" passive skill, it suddenly received the same massive haul of experience points as Huang Yi.

In that instant, its level skyrocketed so quickly that the numbers became a blur, as if the system itself was forcibly adjusting its level. It soared to Level 112 before finally stabilizing!

The Level 272 Harbinger of Doomsday had boosted Little Dragon by dozens of levels in one go, granting it more experience than Huang Yi had ever managed to during all their previous grinding sessions combined.

"[System Prompt]: Your contracted partner, Little Dragon, has reached Level 100, awakening the third skill [Body of the Holy Dragon], while [Holy Dragon Descent] and [Flames of the Holy Dragon] have also been enhanced accordingly."

This marked Little Dragon’s third skill awakening. At Level 50, it had unlocked its first skill, Holy Dragon Descent, and upon entering its growth phase, it had obtained its second skill, Flames of the Holy Dragon. Now, surpassing Level 100, it had gained its third skill.

Brimming with anticipation, Huang Yi checked out Little Dragon’s new skill—

[Body of the Holy Dragon]: Passive Skill. Little Dragon’s body gains extraordinary resilience, granting 30% damage immunity against all attacks and a 50% chance to resist any control or negative effect skills. This skill can scale with level, unlocking additional effects as it grows stronger.

As a passive skill, this significantly bolstered Little Dragon’s survivability. The numerical bonuses were impressive, and the skill had growth potential tied to its level progression.

Huang Yi also revisited the other two skills, noting their improvements as well.

Holy Dragon Descent, the skill that allowed Little Dragon to change its size, had gained around a 30% boost to its flying speed during its transformation.

Flames of the Holy Dragon, which had just been enhanced earlier by the Harbinger of Doomsday’s blood, had now improved further. The holy damage proportion increased from 60% to 70%!

At this rate, one day, Little Dragon might be able to elevate the sacred flame’s holy damage proportion to 100%, making it purely holy damage that would be nearly impossible to resist.

"Little Dragon, you’ve grown even stronger!" Huang Yi patted Little Dragon’s head before finally turning his attention to the Harbinger of Doomsday’s defeated body.

With the battle over, his fusion with the Barbarian God had ended. As he had already summoned Little Dragon, and non-hunter players could typically only summon one contracted partner at a time, the Barbarian God had automatically been dismissed.

However, Huang Yi, now at Level 120, had unlocked a Nefalem’s Bloodline skill called "Coexistence of Demons and Gods." By spending 1 point of the Power of the Nefalem, he could summon two contracted partners simultaneously. This skill was now ready to use.

He re-summoned the Barbarian God, instructing it to absorb the Harbinger of Doomsday’s soul just as it had with the Deep Sea Demon Flesh earlier.

The Harbinger of Doomsday had once been a deity, and typically, deities were undying—a privilege Huang Yi had seen firsthand.

When he had first entered The Second World in Agile Cat Form, his mother had been killed. Later, his father, the Beast God, descended and casually revived her with a mere gesture.

Most beings, no matter how strong, had their souls drawn to the Underworld after death, like the Deep Sea Demon Flesh or the criminals in Heroes’ Prison. Their bodies would remain, but their souls would have long departed.

But deities were different. Their souls never went to the Underworld, and no matter how much time passed, they could be easily revived—that was the privilege of a deity.

Yet now, Huang Yi’s use of the Nefalem skills, surpassing both gods and demons, made things entirely different!

Once the Harbinger of Doomsday’s divine dragon soul was absorbed into the Barbarian God, it was truly captured and unable to be revived!

A deity had truly fallen!

Huang Yi eagerly perked up his ears, preparing to hear the system announcement.

According to forum discussions, no player had ever actually killed a deity. Huang Yi should be the first, and it should trigger an announcement.

But strangely, no announcement sounded!

Huang Yi waited a long time but heard nothing!

"Could it be that this Unique Achievement has already been claimed by someone else? But why haven’t I heard about it?" Huang Yi muttered to himself in confusion.

Killing a deity should have been a jaw-droppingly notable act, yet no one in the forums had ever mentioned it.

"Godslayer, the Harbinger of Doomsday surely left behind some treasures! Here’s the first one—take a look!" At this moment, the Tidal Calling Siren Princess called out to Huang Yi, gesturing elegantly.

Immediately, a flame emerged from the Harbinger of Doomsday’s heart and floated toward Huang Yi.

The flame had the shape of a Love Peach, flickering in the night breeze yet never extinguishing. Around it was a chain of fiery lines, resembling the structure of a necklace.

This was the Epic Necklace Huang Yi had seen before—the Heart of Doomsday.
