BXBX NOVEL Chapter 171 Calamity Dragon Arrow
Chapter 171 Calamity Dragon Arrow
Arriving at the Harrow’s Edge, Shiro looked up at the sky and raised an eyebrow.
Harrow’s Edge was a giant mountain range that was filled with dangers around every corner. Even the common monsters that roamed the area were level 50.
’Since the common monsters are level 50, the wyvern itself should be higher than level 50. Either that or it has a title that makes it stronger than the monsters here.’ Shiro thought to herself.
Crouching down slightly, Shiro inserted mana into her legs and leapt up into the air.
Tapping her necklace, she summoned her swords and used them as platforms to launch herself higher into the air.
Once she was above the highest point of Harrow’s Edge, she sent out a surge of mana to scout out the premises.
However, once her mana hit a barrier of sorts, Shiro frowned.
"A detection field huh... The wyvern is at least level 60." She muttered.
Wyverns were able to lay down a detection field that would inform them of any intruders when they reached level 60. It was also one of the ways for them to know if anyone had trespassed into their nest while their egg was still in its infancy stage.
’I can’t break the barrier with my mana disruption bullets since the wyvern will know that something has entered.’
Landing softly on the ground, Shiro wondered about what she could do.
"Hmm... if the barrier is the checkpoint type, I’ll be fine. But if it’s the constant scan type, it’ll be hard for me to approach it without it noticing." She muttered. The checkpoint type barrier is where it would only detect what happens at the edge of the barrier but not inside the barrier.
On the other hand, the constant scan type barrier will report anything and everything that happens inside the barrier to the caster.
If it was the first kind, it was just a case of Shiro using Rift Walker to sneak past the barrier.
"Hmm... I’ll give it a try. I should be able to handle it even if its level 60." Shiro muttered with a grin.
Walking up to the barrier, Shiro narrowed her eyes before entering the rift.
Exiting the rift just as she passed the barrier, Shiro smiled seeing no mana pulses in her surroundings.
"So it’s the checkpoint kind." She smiled.
"You’ve made a grave mistake wyvern hahaha."
Flickering towards the peak, Shiro floated above the area as she looked down towards the sleeping wyvern.
[Flame Wyvern LVL 60 – Noble Class]
HP: 20,000,000/20,000,000
MP: 30,000,000/30,000,000
"Hou~ A level 60 noble class. Interesting..." Shiro smiled with excitement. It was rare for a person to run into a classified monster. And for them to run into one that’s of the noble class, it was a literal miracle. That’s only if they could take care of it.
But if they could take care of the noble class, the loot they’d receive would be more than worth it.
Even Shiro was tempted to use one of the charges from her Calamity Dragon scale against this wyvern just in case. She had a total of 3 charges for the item after all.
Floating towards the wyvern to make sure that she didn’t make a single sound, Shiro circled it to see if a certain weakness was protected.
’Hehe... It’s unguarded.’ Shiro thought with a sadistic grin.
However, even though it’s unguarded, she needed to make sure that she was able to kill the wyvern in one shot.
Taking a step back, she narrowed her eyes and started to think about the best way to draw out all of her power in one go.
’If I use the bow, I can increase the speed and power. Maybe I should include calamity’s trident since it’s currently my strongest single target skill. I should also modify my bow a little so that it amplified the amount of power that’s being released.’
Stepping back slightly, Shiro narrowed her eyes before flexing her fingers, Lightning and metal twirled around her hand as it slowly morphed into the shape of a bow.
Narrowing her eyes, Shiro made sure that she reduced the amount of mana being pulsed outwards as to not wake up the dragon before she was ready.
Once the basic shape of the bow was ready, Shiro started to modify it.
’Sonic Accelerator, Mana Pulse Launcher, Nano Wire Reinforcement, Electromagnetic Coils...’
*TZZZ!
As she finalised the bow, Shiro couldn’t help but smile at the fact that all her upgrades were completed without any problems.
[Nanotech Sonic Pulse Heavy Bow – LVL 48 (purple+)]
+1500 Attack
+1500 Arrow Flight Speed
+1500 Critical Chance
+1000 Critical Damage
+1000 Armour Penetration
+500 Ignore Defence
Skills: Pulse Propulsion, Focus Fire, Rail Charge.
Unfortunately, she wasn’t able to add any dragon slaying attributes due to the fact that she didn’t have any skills like that within her database. Not only that, but she would need specific materials to merge with her bow in order for it to gain the dragon slayer attribute. As for why she needed dragon slaying attributes and not wyvern slaying attributes, it was due to the fact that a dragon was the evolution of a wyvern. If the ability worked on its next evolution, the current evolution would be weak to it as well.
Looking at the bow, Shiro couldn’t help but hold high expectations since it took her 100k MP to craft the bow.
"Haaa...." Panting slightly from the mana cost, Shiro rubbed her eyes in fatigue.
’Now I just need the trident for the arrow. That being said, I don’t think a trident will be the best shape for penetration.’ She thought to herself.
Tapping her necklace, Shiro summoned her four swords and arranged them into a new shape.
[Calamity Trident – Spear Form]
Looking at the ice spear that was dyed in ominous black, Shiro reached out her hand and grabbed the spear by the handle.
"A little big for me to use." She muttered.
Taking a deep breath, Shiro started to condense the entire spear down. The swords that were encased in the ice started to warp a little as they were being forced into a new shape.
’I don’t need to destroy the swords, they just need to become a slimmer version of themselves. A rapier.’
A gust of wind exploded out from the spear as Shiro heard a notification from her system.
[New Skill Created]
[Calamity Dragon Arrow]
Extremely effective against dragon types due to the power of the calamity dragon embedded within the arrow.
"Hou~ Perfect." Shiro grinned.
Nocking the arrow onto the bow string, she narrowed her eyes and pulled back.
As she pulled back the bow, the surrounding mana started to surge towards the arrow.
’Not good.’ She thought since there was a big chance for the wyvern to wake up.
Inserting her own mana into the arrow to help speeds things up, Shiro saw the arrow spark with electricity as the bow had neon yellow circuits light up on the main body.
A blue fire lit up on the tip of the arrow as she recognised it to be the Azure Hellfire skill that she had.
’So the arrow itself will gain properties depending on the type of mana that’s inserted.’ Shiro thought to herself since she didn’t activate the skill.
"Propulsion Systems ready, Rail Charge Systems ready, Focus Fire Activated." She muttered softly.
*Grr...
The dragon let off a low growl as it was disturbed from its sleep. It could feel a giant wave of mana being gathered behind it like a whirlpool.
Turning its head, it widened its eyes seeing Shiro holding a bow and arrow that was currently emitting a fearsome amount of mana.
"Hello~ Would you stand still for this princess?" Shiro smiled.
"Fire." She said coldly as she let go of the arrow.
*BANG!!!!!!!
The arrow drilled through the wyvern, sending out a spiral of flesh and scales behind it.
Quickly slamming her hand down, Shiro conjured up an ice wall to block the meat chunks from hitting her.
*URAHHH!!!!!!!
Thawing the ice wall, Shiro smiled contently seen a clean hole through the wyvern but paused when she saw the wound start to heal.
"Oh are you f*cking kidding me? Tenacity???" Shiro couldn’t help but complain. While tenacity wasn’t like Rejuvenation, the skill the Yeti Berserker used, it was still an annoying weapon.
Whenever the user takes lethal damage, it would heal it for 10% of the damage dealt. Since she had insta killed it, 10% of his health meant that it regained a grand total of 2 million HP.
Turning its head, the wyvern glared as Shiro before immediately turning back and tried to run.
"Eh?" Shiro was dumbfounded by its reaction.
’Wasn’t dragon types supposed to fight to the death?’ She thought, seeing the wyvern try to run away from her as quickly as it could.
That’s right, the wyvern didn’t think about fighting Shiro and focused on escaping. Its thought process was; if she could insta kill me when I just woke up, wouldn’t that mean she can kill me normally as well with that kind of firepower?
Looking at the wyvern that was flapping its wings to run away, Shiro narrowed her eyes and took a deep breath.
Flexing her fingers, she created a second arrow.
"Sss!" She took a sharp breath due to the pain in her links since each arrow too quite a lot of MP to make.
Nocking the arrow, she pulled back and aimed towards the wyvern.
*BANG!!!!!
Quickly turning its head, the wyvern flapped its wings and dodged out of the way.
*ROAR!
It roared out in glee when it saw the arrow miss.
However, his joy instantly faded when he felt a sharp object pierce the sacred area.
"Cold Illusion." Shiro muttered with a grin.
Using the sound that erupted from her firing the arrow, she used that as the activator for the illusion to redirect the wyvern into the path of the real arrow.
*BOOM!!!!!!
[Level Up!]
Drilling through the wyvern for a second time, the arrow broke apart after doing its job.
Looking at the wyvern corpse falling in the distance, Shiro wanted to retrieve her loot but could only jog towards it due to the pain she was feeling.
"So I’m limited to just a single bow and two shots of the arrow." Shiro chuckled with fatigue.
Sending out her killing intent so that the monsters knew a more dangerous opponent was walking towards the wyvern’s corpse, she was able to reach the wyvern’s corpse without any monsters attacking her.
Sitting besides the wyvern corpse, she wanted to wait till her mana links stop hurting before she harvested the corpse.
Since she had gotten the notification for a level up, Shiro checked her stats.

"Just one more level." She muttered. Just one more level and not only would her MP reach 1 million, but it also marks the start of her class up into C class.
But the most important thing at this moment wasn’t her stats.
"Loot time." Shiro grinned as she summoned her four swords.
Controlling the sword to cut parts of the wyvern off so that it could be cooked, Shiro stored them into the bracelet that she had received from the maids.
Since the inventory inside the bracelet was a lot smaller than her inventory, Shiro could only store the best meat inside and anything that wasn’t tagged as Prime Wyvern Meat was scrapped.
Once the inventory was pretty much full, Shiro used [Collect] to receive the rest of her loot.
[Material Gained – Wyvern Bone x100, Wyvern Scales x200]
[Deposited into reward chest. User will receive at the end of the quest.]
Ignoring the notifications, Shiro was focused on the items that laid in front of her.
A crystal and a set of armour.
Just from the amount of mana she could feel from it, she knew it had to be something amazing.
[Kaiser Wyvern Armour Set]
[Wyvern Soul]
