Chapter 1978 Showdown
Greenland quickly assessed the Camelot dragon; the blinding effect only lasted 30 seconds.

The more developed a monster's eyesight, the better it is blinded by flashes of light. Sometimes, it can even permanently blind a monster. The Camelot Dragon Lizard has excellent eyesight, but unfortunately, it is protected by a nictitating membrane, so it can only cause blindness.

30 seconds wasn't enough for her to defeat the Camelot lizard, and being blinded didn't mean the Camelot lizard couldn't see her.

The Camelot dragon stuck out its tongue, its forked tongue sensing its surroundings.

The two sensory modes ensure that the Camelot dragon will never be passive in any situation. This is the value of being a top predator in a treasure trove like the Golden Tree Sea, where one can patiently and rapidly improve their strength and choose to accumulate power and technology.

Greenland compared itself to the Golden Forest, which has a giant insect species with extremely high levels. One is easy to win as long as you follow the established strategies and don't have any bad teammates, while the other requires you to be adaptable and constantly on edge.

However, the Camelot lizard has two ways of sensing, which doesn't mean she will give up this precious 30 seconds of blindness.

As long as there is perception, there is a way to confuse.

Snakes use heat sensing, while monitor lizards rely on scent molecules to locate nearby targets.

Greenland plucked a handful of cat fur from under its arm and tossed it toward the Camelot lizard. Then, with a light, airy motion, it blended into the fur and slowly approached the Camelot lizard.

Blazer, in the distance, held his breath. The blindness would only last for 30 seconds, but Greenland, with an incredibly calm heart, slowly approached the Camelot lizard with less than 30 seconds remaining.

After detecting the scent spreading through Greenland, the Camelot was not misled at all. Since it couldn't pinpoint a specific target, it decided to sweep through the entire area in one fell swoop.

Its powerful limbs dug into the ground, then swung out in all directions, and during the sweep, its tail completely disappeared in the mimicry skill, completing a transparent tail sweep.

Having anticipated that the Camelot dragon would do this, Greenland floated up like a feather, carried by the whirlwind of the Camelot dragon's tail.

While launching an area-of-effect attack when unable to detect the enemy is certainly a good idea, this was a small mistake made by the Camelot Dragon Lizard. The wind pressure created by its tail whipping disrupted the surrounding scent molecules, creating a blind spot in its second set of senses.

To be fair, this cannot be considered a mistake. The blindness of the Camelot dragon lasts only 30 seconds, and it does not suddenly regain its vision after 30 seconds. Rather, it begins to be able to vaguely see its surroundings after 20 seconds.

Camelot Dragon Lizard never expected that under these circumstances, this cat-beastman, who would have been crushed with a mere graze, would still dare to approach it calmly, and just as its vision was restored in front of it, it would appear right above its head.

The moment Camelot and Greenland locked eyes, a flicker of surprise crossed Greenland's gaze. Greenland grinned, brandishing his staff and, with a swift, spinning motion, unleashed a dazzling display of skill, striking Camelot from the top of the head down the spine to the tail before landing in a perfect somersault.

"Damn, what a waste! Why use a stick for scraping? We should have used double blades!"

After landing, Greenland cursed under her breath. The dragon-like monsters were incredibly resistant to attacks, and she wasn't a strength-based character to begin with. Her combo had probably only scratched the Camelot dragon lizard.

Conversely, if she used dual swords, her high-speed rolling would be enough to give the Camelot dragon lizard a thorough scrubbing until its skin was torn and bleeding.

But she had no time to change weapons. Feeling humiliated, the Camelot lizard attacked with a claw, also using the same blurry, mimicry-based attack.

Greenland's ears twitched, her whiskers trembled, and driven by her waist and hips, she twisted her waist, propelling her shoulders and arms forward with the force of a dragon. Her staff struck with lightning speed, landing a blow that struck Camelot's armpit before she could react. She then released the staff, using incredible waist strength to lean back, her body sliding almost parallel to the ground. Even if she had struck Camelot's point of attack with her own strength, she wouldn't have been able to break his momentum. So she released him, relying on the sturdiness of the staff—a world-class weapon—and Camelot's own strength to complete the attack.

The Camelot dragon lizard suddenly opened its mouth wide, and the undeformed staff, under its own power, rammed into its armpit, sinking deep inside, the force shooting straight to its heart.

Greenland, who had been slashing forward, finally drew her twin blades. Like any professional player, she valued practicality more than high-rarity equipment.

【Cicada Wing Kitchen Knife/Premium】

This special short sword has a blade as thin as a cicada's wing, making it extremely difficult to use. Even the slightest mistake can cause the blade to break, but if used correctly, it can fully demonstrate its unparalleled sharpness.

It didn't slice the enemy open; rather, it passed through the gaps in the enemy's body, separating them.

This is an extremely sharp kitchen knife, made to create the legendary dish where the fish, unaware of its own death, continues to swim in the soup.

This knife was never meant for fighting, because who can, during a battle, carefully feel the enemy's texture?

Greenland could do it; in the instant she leaned back and passed through his groin, she pulled out two cicada-wing kitchen knives and slashed across the Achilles tendons of the Camelot dragon's legs.

After passing through the Camelot dragon lizard, only the handle of the cicada-wing kitchen knife remained in her hand.

She could certainly cut along the Camelot lizard's muscle fibers, but she deliberately changed her force halfway through the cut, causing the blade to break off in the Camelot lizard's Achilles tendon.

Some weapons have blades that are too sharp, which can backfire when facing enemies with strong vitality. After the blade is struck, the enemy may not even realize that it has regenerated.

The Camelot lizard undoubtedly possesses this level of vitality, so Greenland chose to sever the blade in the Camelot lizard's Achilles tendon. This way, the Camelot lizard not only cannot regenerate its Achilles tendon, but also has to endure the constant stinging pain of the cicada-wing-shaped knife blade inside its Achilles tendon.

Moreover, the cicada-wing kitchen knife is very thin, so the Camelot dragon not only cannot pull it out, but it will also break into more small pieces during its violent movements, causing more damage.

The Camelot dragon roared angrily for the first time, but the anger was not from pain or Greenland's despicable fighting style; rather, it was a sign that it was going to fight seriously, and the roar invigorated it.

Its posture changed from lying on all fours to standing on two legs, making it even more frightening.

"Hey, hey, hey, is it really okay for you to get so excited? Be careful..." Greenland was interrupted by two clanging sounds before she could finish speaking.

The blade of the cicada-wing kitchen knife was actually squeezed out by the muscles of the Camelot dragon lizard.

It's not surprising that they can achieve [Body Control SS] and [Precise SS].
