172 Fireball! (2/2)
Heading Arthur's command, all of the surviving Dragons of the Western region started to flap their wings and rose from the ground, their eyes were locked at Elric's position while their mouth started to emit a terrifying heat from the boiling fire inside.
”Kill!”
Like a whirlwind of fire, all the Western Dragon made the first move by flaming Elric to crisp!
Meanwhile, Leah knew better to take any possible advantage that she can.
”Everyone! Move back five hundred meters and prepare to execute the Frozen Prison formation!” Unlike Arthur's reckless style of attack, Leah knew how to plan and ensure her win.
With her region an expert in using wind and ice elements, she planned to freeze everything that will be covered in her formation before going for the kill.
With the combined efforts of at least twenty thousand Dragons in her side alone, she was confident to grab the day's trophy! Not to mention, with the mysterious humans' addition as a bonus for her effort, she might just be able to experiment on his body and possibly learn the secrets of the Ancestral aura he emitted.
While the western Dragons preferred a frontal attack, Fargor and his company seem to have their own plan as well.
With their expertise in camouflage and assassin style of killing, they all started to blend in the surroundings, erasing their presence as if they were never there in the first place!
The Northern Dragon pulled back, the Southern Dragons disappeared while the Western Dragons prefer to go on full five at the start!
Elric watched everything unfolded before his Dragon eyes. He could feel the unstoppable shaking of the two Eastern Dragons beside him. The thousands of incoming fireball coming his way appeared as if he was under a terrifying Armageddon!
Lesse and Long were about to unleash defensive moves against the incoming attack when Elric's voice suddenly came in their heads.
”I will entrust to you two the protection of grandma's body.”
Lesse and Long wanted to retort but for some reason, they could feel overwhelming confidence in Elric's words. Not to mention they have just witnessed the latter commanding literally thousands of Dragons to suicidally dived down to the earth with his own voice alone!
They both quickly nodded, Lesse moved to pick Kahayag's body before she and her brother assumed a defensive stance behind Elric.
And just when all the fireballs coming their way was about to destroy them, Elric casually in front. His face revealed not a stain of fear nor weakness.
Lesse and Long watched everything with anticipation and curiosity. For some reason they could feel an unexplainable security as long as they sided with Elric. Although they both have plenty of questions wanted to ask from the young man, especially Lesse, they knew right now is not the right time for question and answer portions.
Their eyes were locked at Elric's magnificent figure. The latter suddenly raised one of his arm and opened his palm as if carrying an invisible ball!
ZWOOOOOOOOOOOOM!~
All the Western Dragon's fire that was just meters away from hitting him suddenly changed direction. A sphere of fire instantly popped out of his raised palm as it furiously absorbed all the incoming fire like a ”bright blackhole”!
”What the!?”
”Impossible!”
”He-he absorbed the fire!”
The gaping mouth of the Western Dragons was wide open as they saw how Elric literally, single-handedly took care of their first assault!
ZOOOOOOOOWM!~
The fireball in Elric's palm continued to grow exponentially strong with each passing second. The more fire it absorbed the more terrifying power it presents!
