Skill Maker in a Game Like World-Chapter 38: Nine-Headed Viperthorn
"What's going on? Is the monster not inside?" He wondered.
Originally, he thought there would be a surprise attack when the commotion happened.
Second by second and minute by minute, he waited with vigilance, but what he was waiting for still didn't appear.
"There's no way that monster doesn't exist, right?" he said with a strange expression.
It even crossed his mind that the Half-Boss was blown away with the other snakes, but the cave was clearly safe from the storm.
Before the swamp water rose any further, Enzo finally chose to descend from the hill, landing in front of the cave which looked very dark from the outside but his eyes easily penetrated the darkness so that what was inside the cave became clear to him.
What he found was an empty cave, there were only piles of leather that looked similar to steel.
Of course, he couldn't be sure it was completely empty as what he could see was limited to what the cave revealed.
"First, I need a little preparation..."
He stuck his golden spear at his side, then attached the Phantom Spear to it.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
Suddenly nine exactly identical spears appeared beside his spear, neatly lined up in exactly the same position.
He grabbed one of them, feeling a sensation of power that was exactly the same as his spear.
They were all completely Rank 2 Tier A Weapons.
Now, he had ten.
With his control, they all floated into the air simultaneously, forming a formation around him.
"Hmm, I have nothing to fear going in considering I have the best attack and defense," he said, suppressing his hesitation before stepping into the cave.
His steps were not slow, in fact they were quite fast, so in no time at all, he arrived at the cave where he could finally see the entire inside.
It was more spacious than he had imagined, as wide as a football field where there were huge pillars that seemed to be supporting it.
An ancient aura filled the cave so he felt a very quiet sensation.
Perhaps the top had a leak, so when it rained like this, a few drops of water fell from the ceiling of the cave.
Of course, what surprised him was the fact that the cave was completely empty.
"Where is the monster?" He wondered again.
This was rather impossible since there were obviously many snakes standing guard outside this cave earlier.
If a Half-Boss left, the monsters below it would definitely follow and if it died, they would usually split up, seeking their own territories.
"Akhhh..." He spontaneously let out a low cry of surprise and that was because he suddenly fell down while he was supposed to step on the floor of the cave.
As it turned out, the floor of the cave suddenly collapsed, falling down where there was a dark abyss.
Even more shocking, as he fell, the collapsed cave floor suddenly returned to the top, becoming an intact floor again, leaving only him falling.
If he didn't have the Magic Eyes Skill, he really wouldn't be able to see anything here.
Of course, now he realized that he had been caught in a trap.
The monster had turned out to be smart, even setting a trap inside its cave and refraining from coming out until he entered it.
As he fell deeper and deeper, he finally found the creature he was looking for.
He saw an enormous snake standing in front of him so that its head was in the same position as his even though he was still far from the floor.
The snake was like a normal Viperthorn with a body covered in green stripes but which was much larger.
Only, it did not have one or two heads.
Enzo discovered that its body had nine branches each of which had a head.
DING!
(Nine-Headed Viperthorn Level 15
- Status: Half-Bos!)
He got a notification from his status panel.
'I guess it'll be hard to fight here,' he thought.
With the area completely enclosed, there was little wind around him, so he couldn't move freely with the wind he controlled.
Just as he was thinking that, all the mouths of the snake opened simultaneously.
Whoosh!
They sprayed a huge green venom towards him.
When the venom from each mouth coalesced, they became a wave of venom that seemed to drown him.
He had nowhere to dodge.
"Hmph!" He snorted softly before turning his entire body into diamonds.
BANG!
He landed on the ground hard as his body became so heavy that he even had trouble moving.
After that, the waves of venom finally drowned him, but could not block his vision.
His entire figure including his nostrils were completely covered in diamonds, protecting him from the venom.
It seemed to be trying to gnaw at his Diamond Body, but it was too hard, even scratching it was impossible for the venom.
Unlike him, the snake was naturally unable to see his whereabouts when he was hidden within the waves of green venom.
It seemed to be trying to peek out by bringing its head closer to the venom.
"You're done!"
Enzo's eyes went cold, he used this opportunity to send all his spears towards the snake.
Every single spear went for one head and the tenth spear went for the snake's belly.
In a situation that was unfavorable to him, there was always a chance to make a deadly counterattack.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The spears glided until they turned into golden lasers because they were too fast.
Even their speed made no wave-like effects appear.
More precisely, those effects had not appeared just now because the movement of the spears gave the impression that time had stopped.
When they came out of the venom, they immediately stabbed all the heads of the snake, right on the forehead.
They even pierced through the heads, destroying their brains.
The huge snake was not only shocked, it screamed in pain so that all of its long limbs were lifted high up which left its abdomen very exposed.

Shua!
The last spear stabbed into the snake's belly, penetrating all the way to its back until blood gushed on each side of the hole.
