Vol 5 Chapter 34.2 (1/2)
Chapter 34 – Hero or Villain? (II)
The two Gold Behemoths violently strode forth with a single goal in mind: Exterminate the one that had dealt them such a catastrophic attack—Ye Yin Zhu.
Hong——
It seemed like the entirety of Brenner Pa.s.s was violently shaking, the earth trembling fiercely. The ground in front of Dis curved upward with his strike before completely exploding. Regardless of whether the ground consisted of soil or rock, his berserk power sent them all flying away.
This powerful, explosive force advanced with astonis.h.i.+ng speed in the direction of Konya City. As the immense, arched shock wave mixed with a generous amount of soil and rock, it made the ground before Konya City appear as if a plow had gone through it. This tremendous force was extremely terrifying.
Roar——
In the air, the rank 8 Earth-attribute Gigantic Dragon, Rhubarb, issued a deep roar. The frightful feeling created by the < soaring=”” dragon’s=”” cry=””>> zither song had already disappeared completely. At Okafur’s urging, it rushed toward the ground in a flash.
As an Indigo Rank War Master and as a Gold Star Dragon Cavalry Commander with a rank 8 Gigantic Dragon, Okafur currently had two options. The first option was to intercept Perkins, who was rus.h.i.+ng through the air toward the top of the city walls. The second option was to block the Gold Behemoth’s h.e.l.lish shock wave that was heading toward the five hundred Dragon Cavalry Knights who were deprived of their Gigantic Dragons as well as Konya City’s walls.
It was unknown whether the complete loss of five hundred Falcon Dragons had made him forget that the Princess and Prince were still atop the city walls or the fact that it was his younger brother Oliveira who was in danger right before his eyes, but Okafur unexpectedly didn’t choose to intercept Perkins. He had instead urged his Earth-attribute Gigantic Dragon to rush toward the ground.
The abilities of a Sentient Magical Beast was not subjected to the restrictions of the Rainbow Ranking System; instead, their abilities were based on special properties. The enormous body of the Earth-attribute Gigantic Dragon roared deeply before suddenly exploding with a ma.s.sive yellow radiance that scattered across the ground. A ten-meter-tall, three-meter-thick solid wall of earth was raised in front of the long-stunned five hundred Dragon Cavalry Knights, countering the h.e.l.lish shock wave just in time.
Who would be victorious in a collision between a Gold Behemoth’s absolute might and an Earth-attribute Gigantic Dragon’s Earth Magic? If the Gold Behemoth was at his peak state, then it would have been impossible for the Earth-attribute Gigantic Dragon to be its match.
Unfortunately, Dis had just previously faced two phases of draconic explosions with very powerful destructive power. Every one of the two-and-a-half-meter-long sharp claws on Dis’ hands had already been shattered, and a substantial amount of his physical strength had also been used up. Although it had been a fury-induced attack, when the h.e.l.lish shock wave collided with the Earth Wall, his absolute might was unable to break through.
An arc-shaped burst of dusty smoke exploded before Konya City, rising straight into the sky. Every Dragon Cavalry Knight now had a head and face filthy with grime. Those lacking in strength fell back because of the aftershock.
The h.e.l.lish shock wave had been obstructed in the end.
During Rhubarb’s full-out downward rush, Okafur’s seven meter-long earth-yellow dragonspear pointed at Gold Behemoth Dis.
While Gold Star Dragon Cavalry Commander Okafur charged at Gold Behemoth Dis, Gold Behemoth Perkins was already about to land on Konya City’s walls. Currently, only two people were completely clear-headed on Konya City’s city walls—Sura and the Milan Imperial Prince, Fisich.e.l.la.
When he saw that incomparably gigantic gold-colored figure leap forward, Fisich.e.l.la revealed the entirety of his capabilities as the Imperial Prince. With the aura of the one who was first-in-line to inherit the throne, his signature laughing smile was long gone as he took a step forward. He used his tall body to block Ye Yin Zhu and Sura, his hands gripped around the handle of his thick and broad heavy sword. With an explosive shout, green dou qi was directly chopped at Perkins.
Clang. A deafening metallic ring reverberated outward. The thick and broad heavy sword that was chopping at Perkins’s huge body had unexpectedly burst forth with a fiery spark. The golden hair defense of a Gold Behemoth’s body was extremely and truly frightening. Green Rank dou qi to a rank 9 magical beast—it simply wasn’t any different from a troublesome itch. Perkin’s body didn’t even shake in the slightest. Fisich.e.l.la, on the other hand, had already been sent flying back from the shock of the blow, cras.h.i.+ng against Konya City’s low wall before falling back inside the city.
Perkins didn’t know Fisich.e.l.la’s ident.i.ty. If it were otherwise, then he might have changed the target of his attack. At this moment, his vicious, blood-red eyes were focused only on that white-robed mage who was gradually freeing himself from his pain with the a.s.sistance of the Pure Brightness Spirit Guardian—Ye Yin Zhu.
Roar——
With a cyclone-like roar, Perkins’ huge right fist attacked Ye Yin Zhu.
In the blink of an eye, with speed like lightning, Sura’s figure moved to stand in front of Ye Yin Zhu’s body. The Eternal Subst.i.tute Puppet had long since been activated. His immunity to physical attacks made Perkin’s tyrannical right fist phase through Sura’s body. Sura’s foot used the fist as leverage and, in a flash, arrived before Perkins. His black Angel’s Sigh stabbed at Perkin’s eyes, moving like two streaks of black lightning.
Sura was well aware of the crisis she found herself in. She knew that even if Angel’s Sigh was almost as powerful as a Divine device, it was still unable to break a Gold Behemoth’s defense. Her dou qi was only Green Rank. By attacking Perkin’s eyes, perhaps she would be able to change his target from Ye Yin Zhu to her.
Unfortunately, Sura still underestimated the Gold Behemoth’s hatred toward Ye Yin Zhu. Perkins actually relied on his tyrannical body and didn’t bother to dodge at all. The moment Angel’s Sigh stabbed at his eyes, he abruptly shut them, his right fist hadn’t halting at all as it attacked Ye Yin Zhu.
