Chapter 175 -175-Divine Mirror Domain, Activation

At the same time, the dragon’s scales began to emit a strange and eerie black light.

"Everyone look! That damned dragon... its scales are being corroded!"

"I can feel it. That’s intense death energy. The dragon can’t hold on much longer!"

"Brothers, keep going! Kill the dragon, and victory will surely be ours!"

The Deathborn’s assault continued relentlessly for a full three minutes.

From their perspective, the Divine Mirror Dragonlord was under an attack so powerful that it surely could not withstand it.

The expressions of the Deathborn gradually began to relax.

Even the Deathborn King let out a long breath of relief.

Instinctively, he looked toward the distant cave, catching sight of Caelan and Iverson.

The next battle, he thought, would be about eliminating them.

At this moment, the Deathborn King was brimming with confidence.

Just as the Deathborn prepared to launch another attack toward Caelan’s location...

A deafening roar erupted from the dragon, shaking the very clouds above.

Even the ground beneath them trembled slightly.

"How is this possible!? The dragon is still alive?!"

"Is this for real? I didn’t see it wrong, did I? This can’t be!"

"Wait! Everyone, look at the dragon’s scales!"

Someone shouted, and all attention immediately focused on the dragon above.

At that instant, the dragon’s scales had turned completely black, shining with an intense luster.

The dense death energy it radiated exceeded even the natural aura of the Deathborn themselves.

Seeing this, the Deathborn were utterly stunned.

This was no joke.

Normally, if a creature’s death aura reached a certain intensity, it indicated that it had already died.

But this [Divine Mirror Dragonlord] in front of them?

Its death aura was even stronger than the Deathborn’s.

Could it be... dead?

In the next moment, the Deathborn King realized something was off.

The aura of the [Divine Mirror Dragonlord] was unusual.

Although its surface was covered in death energy, its core still retained the essence of life.

But... how could this be possible?

The Deathborn King could not comprehend it, no matter how hard he tried.

Suddenly, the mirrored scales of the [Divine Mirror Dragonlord] began to emit a dazzling, ghostly light.

"What’s happening?"

"Why does this feel like the skill I just used?"

"Holy crap! The skill is coming toward us!?"

As the scales flickered, the Deathborn’s previous attacks were instantly reflected back.

Not only that, the damage was multiplied several times over.

In just a few breaths, those Deathborn were killed in large numbers by the very skills they had unleashed.

Iverson froze in place, utterly shocked.

What was this? A reflection of damage?

But why did the reflected damage feel even stronger than the original?

Caelan, watching all of this, showed a faint smile on his face.

Everything that had happened so far roughly aligned with his plan.

The strength displayed by the [Divine Mirror Dragonlord] satisfied him, at least for now.

At the same time, a flood of system prompts appeared before him.

[Congratulations! You have slain the Deathborn King, +100,000 points]

[Congratulations! You have slain a Deathborn, +2,000 points]

[Congratulations! You have slain another Deathborn...]

After yet another mass annihilation, many of the Deathborn’s faces displayed hopelessness.

In this situation, the Deathborn King, after a brief moment of disbelief, clenched his teeth and began to rally the remaining Deathborn.

"Trust me. I still have Plan C. If we can hold out this time, there’s still a chance to kill that guy!"

Once again, all the Deathborn gathered around him.

Partly due to unwillingness to give up, and partly due to trust in the Deathborn King.

After a brief discussion, they once more launched an assault toward the cave where Caelan and Iverson were located.

The Deathborn’s movements quickly drew Iverson’s attention.

"Caelan, it seems these Deathborn haven’t given up. They’re attacking again!"

Caelan nodded, a bit surprised, scanning the Deathborn carefully.

He had not expected them to be so persistent.

Even after being wiped out twice, they still had not realized the difference in power between them.

In that case, he thought, let’s make them feel complete despair.

It was also the perfect opportunity to try out the newly unlocked Divine Mirror Domain.

Thinking this, Caelan calmly snapped his fingers.

[Divine Summon], he activated.

In the next instant, ten new [Divine Mirror Dragonlords] appeared in the gray sky.

They roared and appeared directly before the Deathborn.

The Deathborn, including their king, were instantly stunned.

"No way... are you kidding us?"

"One [Divine Mirror Dragonlord] could already easily wipe us out. Now there are ten of them? How is this even playable?"

Many Deathborn showed hopelessness on their faces.

Yet a few, unwilling to give in, launched attacks at the dragons in the sky.

Their attacks could not even pierce the scales of the [Divine Mirror Dragonlords].

Meanwhile, the dragons began connecting head to tail, biting each other’s tails, and spinning rapidly in the air.

The Deathborn on the ground stared, dumbfounded.

What does this mean?

These [Divine Mirror Dragonlords]... what are they doing now?

In the blink of an eye, the Deathborn realized the space around them had changed.

Unconsciously, they found themselves trapped within a defined area.

The boundaries of this area were like the mirrored scales of the [Divine Mirror Dragonlords].

"What’s going on?"

"Could it be that the [Divine Mirror Dragonlords] are using a completely new skill?"

"But I don’t see the need! One skill already wiped us out. What’s the point of doing this?"

"Whether it has a point or not, let’s first figure out a way to escape!"

In the next moment, the Deathborn attacked the surrounding mirrored boundaries.

Their dark, deathly energy struck the scales, but produced no effect.

Instead, the scales struck began to flicker.

At first, only a few scattered scales lit up, but they seemed to communicate with each other.

Each flicker caused more scales to illuminate.

Soon, the scales formed intricate and complex patterns.

The scene before them left all the Deathborn staring in awe.

What... what exactly is the effect of this domain?
