Chapter 18: Test Fire!
Elliot wanted to test just how much burst damage his evolved form could dish out instantly. Basically, calculate his DPS (Damage Per Second) the total damage dealt divided by the time it took.
In other games, you'd usually test this on a slow monster with high HP and low defense. Elliot hadn't found a perfect test dummy yet, so this slow-moving Fire Lizard would have to do. After all, it had the highest HP of any monster he'd encountered so far.
Instantly, the damage from both skills landed.
-2881!
-2621!
Two absolutely massive damage numbers popped up. The Fire Lizard didn't even have time to react before it was instantly obliterated by the two devastating attacks.
A total DPS of 5502! Even if the Fire Lizard had three lives, it wouldn't have been enough. A monster with 3000 HP would have been vaporized on the spot too.
Sure, the Fire Lizard was technically a low-tier monster for this stratum, but its 1300 HP was still pretty tanky. A reincarnator at Elliot's level might have needed ten or twenty hits to take it down. But against Elliot? Dead in one second, with enough damage left over to kill it twice more.
And his [True Man's Slash] still had 29 seconds left on its duration.
Sigh, Elliot thought. These monsters... none of them can put up a real fight.
