Chapter 235: Dragon inheritance (1/2)
Hearing Derik's words the King-tier soldier ants seemed to understand Derik's words as they made some strange sound while aggressively gazing at the invaders. If it were in the past world, Derik would have made the first move and wiped out all thirty of these beasts at once but in this world, he was not feeling as invincible as usual. He could feel the cold gaze of the enemy pinned on him and for some reason he felt like using his death aura won't work here.
”This will definitely not end well” Derik muttered but he did not retreat.
He kept taking bold steps forward, making Lucien wonder if he was high on wine or something.
Screech!
One of the soldier ants could no longer take this insult and screamed loud before charging forward at Derik! It could be considered extremely fast but Derik dodged it properly! His body spun uncontrollably until he stepped on the wall of the cave but by that time, three figures around him.
”INSECTS!” Derik growled as the death scythe in his hand lit up and his body spun quickly, creating a perfect arc as he slashed all three enemies at once.
Peng!
His attack only shoved them back, leaving no crack on the black shell armor of the ant men!
Kwaaaah!
The three ant soldiers let out a roar as they all struck forward at once, aiming for Derik's skull!
”COCKY!!” Derik growled as the there enemies were engulfed with a green aura and for a moment, the three ants paused!
”TIME MAGIC!” Lucien exclaimed in shock but what was even more shocking was the bright orange aura, overlapping his green aura!
”BRILLIANT SUN!” Derik growled as three massive suns appeared in front of the three ant men and struck them hard!
Everyone watched as the there ant soldiers struggled against the miniature suns until they were smashed into the wall behind the queen who remained calm.
Boom!
Derik dropped to the ground with a frown. He didn't seem exhausted but even more annoyed than ever.
”These bastards will be hard to deal with” Derik said with a frown on his face as he watched the there ant soldiers emerge again but this time their armor had cracks on them.
To think all that for just this level of damage... What will happen when all thirty of them attacks at once?
”This will be tricky” Lucien nodded in agreement to Derik's words.
”Just as I suspected... You two possess power surpassing that of a spirit realm master... You may be powerful but it is obvious you cannot win here” the ant queen said and Derik chuckled in response.
He only said it would be difficult and never claimed it would be impossible. He didn't know why this ant queen was eager to get rid of them peacefully but he wasn't buying it! Now they are here, only one side can leave this place alive!
Swoosh!
Lucien waved his hands slowly and in a circular motion, forming what looked like a massive black fog of corrosive death aura. The fog kept expanding and rising and to his greatest surprise, the ant queen and the soldier ants did nothing to stop him. They just gazed at him as if he was some sort of idiot.
”Don't blame me for being ruthless then!” Derik growled as he threw his hands forward, sending the entire corrosive fog forward. He and Lucien watched attentively and slowly the fog cleared and apart from the three soldier ants whose armor had been damaged no other person was killed.
Ding!
Ding!
Ding!
[King tier ant-man Killed]
[Beast assimilation successful]
...
Seeing the notifications Lucien wasn't impressed. In the past, he would be ecstatic about having gained the power of a new king tier magic beast but that's just a thing of the past right now. Right now, only an emperor tier beast assimilation could catch his attention.
”I guess this will end badly if we don't take them seriously” Derik concluded with a frown.
He didn't know how possible it is but their armor is capable of resisting his corrosive death aura. He performed the last move to confirm after he realized his death scythe couldn't cut through them or even leave a mark.
