Chapter 856: Vol V Chapter 216
Leon had been extremely careful to wear on his full armor.
After its creation, other than trying it on a few times in Sui Xiong’s Holy Kingdom, he had not worn it before in the Human Realm.
This was because, in recent years, he had never met an enemy strong enough to require such armor. Normal enemies did not even require him to pull out his personal sword as he could defeat them with a wave of his hands. Even the stronger enemies only required a typical, ordinary sword to defeat.
In his hands, any object, even a twig, could be considered holy soldiers’ weapon. A normal long sword was more than enough to win over a range of enemies as long as it did not come into contact with other magical objects. This was the first battle that required him to pull out magical objects to fight.
Leo had always thought this was a pity because all strong individuals often desired to fight a good and hard battle against a strong opponent. Many legendary peak and demigod individuals had left the Main Plane as their powers had exceeded the extremes of the Main Plane or because they wanted to be able to fight freely without the restrictions of the Main Plane enchantments. However, as the Church of Void Mask’s Archbishop, Leon could not ever leave. Once he left, the church would have no leader and be thrown into chaos!
With this inability to leave, Leon was not really able to find suitable opponents to spar with. Other than the occasional challenge with Wall and other gods of his standard where he had been crushed and lay on the floor like a dead dog, there weren’t many other battles worth mentioning.
This fight before him in terms of intensity was still significantly lower than that with gods. However, while gods would show mercy, this evil dragon would not. It was almost guaranteed that Leon would lose to the gods, but even so, they would kindly accompany him to train and help him heal. However, if he lost here, well…. One could say that things would be much “simpler” in the sense that Leon would simply die with his ashes directly spread over the entire land.
However, this high level of danger not only increased Leon’s alertness but also excited him.
Towards such a battle against a strong magical creature who could be at the legendary peak or demigod status, Leon finally decided to change into his full armor and decided to have a good “conversation” with the dragon in the best way that knights knew how: through a good fight.
Although… the results of this “conversation” had been decided by fate already.
After a while, the evil dragon’s roars finally stopped, and the swirling winds and tornado began to ease. The sand that had been picked up was lowered down, and the giant crater that had been created stopped smoking and became peaceful.
In this peace, the evil dragon widened his eyes and eyed Leon, who emitted strength with his armor.
Although the dragon’s brain had not fully healed, it could sense that Leon was now several times more dangerous. This battle was also one of life or death for it.
In the sky, Sui Xiong and Wenner observed this imminent battle anxiously.
“Between Leon and the dragon, who do you think has a higher chance of winning?” Sui Xiong asked.
“Currently, I don’t know. The fight has already progressed to an extremely intense level, and both sides do not have an extremely strong protective boundary. In this case, their levels of attack are about the same and the final decisive battle would probably happen like a strike of lighting, just like how knight stories often put it,” Wenner replied.
According to such a description, as long as Leon took out his true powers and used his passion for justice, it was possible for him to kill the evil dragon.
