Chapter 129: Fighting Goliath Again, Complete Suppression!
Tap, tap, tap—
In the silent passage, the sound of footsteps drew closer and closer.
Ethan stared at the enormous crystal wall before him and thought back to the past.
This was where he had once defeated the Floor Boss, Goliath, and successfully leveled up to Lv.2.
Now, Ethan had become even stronger and had already reached Lv.3.
He was ready.
This time, there definitely could not be any more accidents.
Roar—
Rumble—
As the saying went, arriving early was not as good as arriving at the perfect time.
He had only just reached the crystal wall and was planning to rest here for a while when a roar sounded.
Along with it, the enormous Goliath was born from the rock-crystal wall.
A thunderous sound rang out as the massive crystal wall shattered.
Its gigantic body descended into this place once more.
"We meet again, Goliath."
Swish—
A sword wreathed in black energy appeared in Ethan's hand.
Roar—
With a roar, the newly reborn Goliath immediately launched an attack at him.
Bang—
Its huge palm fell toward Ethan like a giant net.
Boom—
Holding Excalibur, Ethan forcefully received the blow head-on.
Goliath's potential ability was around Lv.4.
As for Ethan, although he had only recently reached Lv.3, his strength did not come solely from the Falna.
"Ratio Technique: Break."
Pshk—
In Ethan's "eyes," line after line of slashing marks appeared across one of Goliath's arms.
Then he swung his sword down.
Excalibur sliced through Goliath's incredibly tough hide as easily as cutting tofu, severing one of its arms directly.
Bang—
The enormous severed arm crashed to the ground, shaking the floor several times.
However, as he watched the arm gradually turn into black smoke and vanish, Ethan understood that the Dungeon was probably reclaiming the power it had given.
Buzz—
At that moment, Goliath opened its huge mouth.
A roar began to gather.
Rumble—
The ground shook with a thunderous sound.
Goliath's sneak attack did not work on Ethan.
With his speed, he easily dodged the blow.
He stood on a rock wall, while the surroundings had already been reduced to ruins because of Goliath.
The furious monster continued destroying everything around it.
In front of Goliath, everything was an obstacle blocking its path, and it would destroy them all without hesitation.
"You really are just like a wild beast. Perfect. I have a skill I want to test too."
Tap—
With a light step, Ethan moved like an agile monkey, quickly opening up the distance between himself and Goliath.
Buzz—
He took a deep breath, then began gathering magical energy.
The true power of Excalibur was finally about to reveal itself in this world.
His magic began to boil, continuously pouring into the holy sword.
And Excalibur was like a bottomless pit.
No matter how much magical energy flowed into it, the sword devoured it all completely.
At that moment, the pitch-black Excalibur released a black radiance.
It was a shocking sight.
Black light was not something one could see often.
Roar—
Sensing the surging magic within Ethan, Goliath charged toward him like a shark that had smelled blood.
It rushed forward with terrifying excitement.
Beneath its enormous feet, large chunks of rock were crushed into piles of rubble.
Rumble—
In an instant, the magical energy wrapped around Excalibur had already taken solid form.
"Excalibur—"
The release of the Noble Phantasm had begun.
The true name of Excalibur was being called.
The sword of black aurora no longer suppressed Ethan's magical energy.
As he swung the holy sword with all his strength, the magical particles no longer became light, but darkness that devoured light.
Roar—
Boom—
Goliath released its roar once more, sending it straight toward Ethan.
Yet he stood in place as if he felt nothing at all.
If he were hit by that attack, even if he did not die, he would definitely be crippled.
"Excalibur—Morgan!"
Rumble—
The surging black aurora transformed into a roaring torrent and erupted in an instant.
Everything in its path was destroyed by that terrifying power.
The rocks along the way were reduced to dust.
The roar released by Goliath was crushed the moment it touched the burst of power from Excalibur.
Rumble—
That terrifying force tore directly through the ground, leaving a massive chasm across the seventeenth floor.
Because of its overwhelming power, everything nearby was heavily affected as well.
Rustle—
A moment later, the raging pillar of aurora vanished.
In its place was a field of broken ruins.
If Ethan had not personally watched this place become like this, even he would not have believed that, not long ago, this had still been a dangerous floor.
Bang—
On the other side, Goliath's enormous body had been completely crushed under the burst of the "black aurora."
Forget Goliath itself.
Even the huge magic stone inside its body had disappeared from this world along with it.
That left Ethan a little disappointed.
"The power is terrifying. And this was only one-third of my magical energy. If I used all of it, the destructive force would probably be impossible to estimate."
The entire seventeenth floor had been reduced to ruins.
The floor itself had also been mostly destroyed.
Goliath had been killed in a single strike.
And this was still after Ethan had held back part of his strength.
Looking at the mess around him, he felt somewhat helpless.
He had no idea what exactly was going on inside the Dungeon now.
Swish—
He put away Excalibur.
The power unleashed by this "former holy sword" had even shocked Ethan himself.
Its might was truly terrifying.
And just like last time, no magic stone had been left behind.
That made him a little disappointed.
After all, inside Goliath's body was a massive core.
If he could absorb it, his magical energy would absolutely be enough to sweep across all of Orario.
It was unbelievable to look at.
A sword, and not even a magic sword, could actually contain such terrifying power.
Rumble—
Goliath had exited the stage.
The crisis on the seventeenth floor could be considered resolved.
As for Ethan, although he had failed to control his strength and had once again shattered Goliath's magic stone, he was still very satisfied with the power Excalibur had unleashed.
If Goliath on the seventeenth floor was not enough, then he would simply continue deeper.
The current Ethan was no longer the same as before.
