[VRMMO] Dead One

"…."

(Okay…. Seriously now, what is up with that transformation of his?) – though ClownFrog.

(He looks straight up nothing alike to his previous form… Not only that, his wings were able to cut me?)

(His white wings could had been used as shields…. So, I guess they can also be used as armor…. But his bird form does not resembles his bird wings from before.)

(Pure white and now in stripes.)

(Their overall shape and structure changed as well…They are nothing alike.)

(…. Are by any chance…. I think I get it.)

(That form he shown was something like an all-rounder form.)

(But he can also take different forms to adjust to the different combat styles.)

(…. Is it related to his bizarre body?)

(Humanoid torso.)

(Weird long insect humanoid arms.)

(6 eyes.)

(Beastly legs.)

(Fish tail.)

(Wings from side of the head.)

(6. If my guess is correctly, then this guy has 6 different forms. Five that are related to his body parts, while the sixth being that hybrid form of his…. Or maybe there is one more form if we somehow count his eyes, they are definitely not normal looking.)

(But that wing… Damn, it did some damage.)

(I guess its not just his form that changed, but so did his abilities.)

(But, it doesn't look like he got healed, his body is damaged.)

(I guess changing forms does not mean that the wounds are straight up removed.)

(But why transform now? Was he just testing me or something?)

(Either way, this guy has some new tricks to show and I need to be wary of those.)

Hell Lord now in his bird form flew towards ClownFrog, alarming him who unleashed [Dread Dead Fire], firing an giant skull of fire at the Hell Lord, but not managing to hit him as he instantly flew to the side, barely dodging the attack.

"[Boulder Fall]."

"!"

An giant boulder fell from the sky, alarming the Hell Lord who barely managed to dodge the attack, however as soon as he dodged the attack, an barge of the fire sphere came flying, bombarding the Hell Lord.

"…."

"!"

However, even after gentian bombarded, the Hell Lord was not struck down as he flew through the explosion and quickly flew past ClownFrog, slashing him with his wing across his shoulder.

"Tch!"

ClownFrog swinged around his giant scythe staff, but not managing to hit and not hitting as well with the fallow up attack done with his tail.

(Damn! He is way faster now!)

(But I got the bastard!)

"?"

"?!"

The Hell Lord looked in front of him and saw several skeleton bird monster flying towards him alongside the gusted vultures.

(Randomly raised monsters? They also have some undeads with them.) – though Hell Lord.

(But-)

Hell Lord dodged two of the birds and used his wings, slashing the entire undeads in half without even slowing down.

(They are nothing!)

[Curse: Limbs]

[Curse: Legs]

[Curse: Sloth]

[Curse: Gluttony]

[Curse: Flesh]

"?!"

(What?! Curses?!) – though surprised Hell Lord who then was attacked by the wind undeads, forcing the Hell Lord on the defense.

However, while dealing with the undeads, several black mist like projectile flew towards the Hell Lord, alarming him as he flew up, but as he flew up, so did the projectiles.

"!"

(Homing?!)

[Cursed Hunger]

[Fire cursed smoke that chase the target that are inflicted with {{Curse}} type effect. Deals damage depending on the amount of {{Curse}} status(es) that target suffer from.]

The Hell Lord tried getting away from the undeads and the cursed projectiles, but the problem was that the cursed were slowing him down, but not enough for the projectiles and undeads to catch…. That is until [Icicle Hail] came from above, catching the Hell Lord and hitting him off guard in worst timing with allowed the projectiles and undeads to collide and hit the Hell Lord, blowing him up midair.

"…"

"!"

Hell Lord who was now in his hybrid body was falling down while being covered in wounds before moments later starting to transform and then diving into the ground right before an blast of wind came and demolished the ground.

"…."

(The [Cursed Mind] isn't responding.)

[Cursed Mind]

[An active slash passive skill that allows the target to detect curses.]

(Should I pop up the [Dragonewt Territory]?)

"…"

(Nah. I can't. This guy may have some other nasty surprises he is just waiting to dish out.)

(But if he is in the ground I can use this!)

"[Ground Touch]." – ClownFrog used his detection skill and began trying to detect anything on and underneath the ground.

"!"

ClownFrog fired an blast of magic lava right as something leaped out of it and barely dodged in time the attack.

The creature that leaped out was something…. "insect" like.

Its feets resembles that of an grass hopper, but its arms and fingers were both long and thin, the same kind of arms the Hell Lord had, but this time there was over 8 pair of them.

Not only that, but creature head looked like an mix of an spider and mosquito.

"First bird and now insect? What next? Shark?" – asked ClownFrog before using [Double Casting] and creating two different magic circles.

"…."

(Wait. Something is off.) – though ClownFrog.

(Isn't his-)

The Hell Lord suddenly dug into the ground, alarming ClownFrog who began unleashing an wave of water and thunder, hitting and causing an discharge that completely destroyed entire surface of the ground while also leaving and water infused with electricity.

"…"

(Common. Come out so you can get zapped.) – though ClownFrog as he tracked the Hell Lord with his still active detection skill.

"…"

ClownFrog spread his giant wings and began in the air, but as soon as he lifted off, the Hell Lord emerged and shot out web from his mouth, wrapping around the ClownFrog leg, but also causing the eclecticized water to electrocute the Hell Lord.

"!"

(He is holding – NO WAIT! HE IS PULLING MY GIANT ASS?!) – though ClownFrog who tried lifting off, only to get hold off and even pulled down, forcing ClownFrog to pull more strength behind his wings and allowing him to lift off.

But it wasn't enough as the Hell Lord began pulling himself using the web, closing the distance between him and ClownFrog, but while was at it, an giant scythe of the necrotic wind came and cut the web alongside the Hell Lord, causing him to fall down.

"?!"

(What?! When?!) – though ClownFrog as he realized his wing was webbed up.

(He didn't – FUCK!) – though ClownFrog before falling down alongside Hell Lord.

ClownFrog tried somewhat land down without completely hitting the ground with his face.

But as soon as he fallen, the beastly creature rammed into his face, dealing damage and even causing ClownFrog skull head to crack.

"?!"

Before ClownFrog could even get up, the beast leaped past him and slashed him across his face, leaving claw marks around his eye socket.

"Tch!"

ClownFrog used [Lava Burst], releasing an burst of lava around himself and forcing the creature to get away while ClownFrog quickly stood up.

"Heh. So not only you can breath like an dragon, but you also tough like an dragon… How the does that work? Are your scales and bones the same thing?" – said the Hell Lord that now resembles an giant lion with two heads and goat horns on each head alongside long blade shaped claws.

(Fuck me! This one hurt a lot?!) – though ClownFrog while looking around.

(This guy is like the bird, but instead of flying he had gained monster like offensive ability.)

(….)

(Still, this confirms one thing.)

(The forms have both upsides and downsides.)

(The Hell Lord shouldn't had suffered that much damage before and he even reverted back to his hybrid form…. The bird form can fly and it is fast, but its lacks any form of defense.)

(The same goes for the insect form. Even though it was hit with electricity, he was still able to move and the curse instantly dispersed as soon as he dived down… I think that form has high resistance to negative effects but it also is vulnerable to attacks.)

(So, what is the mammal gimmick? High attack and speed, but his downsides are what?)

(Fuck! This isn't the main problem!)

(The main problem is that this guy is still full of energy and that he had those annoying transformation abilities.)

"…."

*Sigh*

"You know. Since you are no longer trying to hide that you were holding back."

"How about you see me going serios?" - said ClownFrog before starting to summon an hordes of countless undeads almost instantly, alarming the Hell Lord, but also making him excited.

"HA!"

"LOOKING DOWN ON ME?! NOT TAKING ME SERIOSLY ENOUGH YET?!" – said the two heads of the Hell Lord while laughing manically.

"YES! YES! YES!"

"THIS IS WHAT I WANTED!"

"THIS IS WHAT I LIVE FOR!"

"HUNT!"

"THIS IS THE ONLY JOY THAT BRINGS ME "LIFE" TO MY MEANING!"

"DON'T DISSAPOINT ME NOW AND BRING ME "LIFE"!"

"FUCK YOU AND YOUR HUNT!" – shouted ClownFrog in reply.

"AND HOW ABOUT INSTEAD YOU JUST DIE AND BE NOTHING MORE THAN COPRSE?!"
