BXBX NOVEL Chapter 798 Fire
Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.
The spear slowly ripped through Virion\'s flesh as cracks began to appear in his chest and his heart began to beat faster. His body could barely withstand the pressure as only the flames from the ring saved him until the momentum from Wain\'s attack reached him.
The impact was like a scarlet blast tossing him aside, burying his body under the stone rubble.
"Hmm? Was he able to block it...? I planned to leave a wide hole in his chest with this attack. Well, looks like it won\'t be as easy as I thought." Wain muttered with a confused look as he tilted his head.
Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.
A few seconds later Virion crawled out from under the rubble as he scattered it aside with bloody hands. Wain may not have been able to achieve what he originally wanted, but he still inflicted horrific damage on Virion.
There was a massive blast stain on his chest while blood flowed from the damaged flesh. Virion had to use flames to stop the bleeding, which hurt him terribly.
"Bastard... I\'ve watched every fight you\'ve had and tried to gather as much information as I could, yet no one told me you had such a powerful weapon... It\'s not just a tree, it\'s part of some ancient plant, right?" Virion muttered with a calm expression while looking at Wain. However, his gaze was consumed with hatred as murderous intentions enveloped him in a thick, bloody veil.
\'Damn... Maybe no one wanted to kill me as badly as he did, but he\'s still trying to stay calm, and he\'s succeeding. Well, that\'s what it takes. Only one of us will come out of this tree.\' Wain said inwardly as his eyes became as cold as thousand-year-old glaciers.
Whooooooooooosh.
At the same time, the fire from the ring became much stronger as something began to appear near Virion. It was three silver circles that slowly rotated, gradually speeding up. All the white flame went toward the circles, causing them to flash brightly.
Virion glanced at circles and muttered, "I used them last time I was attacked by a young Dragon... I think his bones still lie somewhere. Normally I only use my flames, but you\'ll give me a unique opportunity..."
Virion touched the puddle of blood on the ground with his fingertip as it split into three flows, heading for the circles. They absorbed all the blood as due to inertia it mixed with the flames, making it not white but red. However, it also greatly increased the energy of the circles as well as their power.
\'Hmm... Flaming Circles? Well, they don\'t look as dangerous as that sword. Looks like he\'s already used his main trump cards in a Beyond, but his blood... Damn, that could be difficult.\' Wain muttered inwardly as he prepared for battle.
Blood was an important resource as it almost directly depended on the life of the creature, but things were not so simple, especially with Virion. Blood was full of energy, so while losing it was critically bad, blood could be used as a weapon, something that was often used by vampires due to their insane regeneration.
By the rank of the Colosseum, Virion was the strongest in the Fourth Chronicle, so his blood was a real treasure not to be lost, but it was also a deadly weapon.
"You still haven\'t used your Beyond, so it looks like I\'m losing, doesn\'t it?" Virion uttered with a calm look as he stared at Wain.
"Sure, you are. Do you really think you have a chance of winning? It was clear from the beginning that you were going to lose." Wain said in a careless manner with a shrug, but he didn\'t believe his own words at all. He couldn\'t take such a dangerous opponent lightly.
"How arrogant... Well, you and I are alike in that." Virion muttered as he snapped his fingers.
Whoooooooooooosh.
The flames on the circles intensified as they simultaneously headed toward Wain. They moved slowly, but in just a few seconds their speed reached its limit and made Wain shudder in fear.
His pupils narrowed as he reflexively jumped up as the only way to escape the danger. At the same time, three fiery circles swept beneath him like scarlet flashes, heading toward the east side.
Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.
The Circles pierced the solid stone wall with ease, leaving three thin streaks in it, as thick as a finger. The Shining Tree immediately responded to the damage as its golden foliage glowed brightly and the thin roots began to repair the crack as though threads.
\'Fuck... I felt they were dangerous, but they went through these walls like it was a plain piece of paper.\' Wain said to himself in a daze with eyes wide open, \'If I make one mistake, I\'ll be left limbless or cut in half altogether.\'
Virion stared at Wain as if he cared about his reaction to what had happened, \'Fine. That\'s what I expected. Nameless has many abilities it\'s true, he seems to have skills for absolutely any occasion, but one thing he is missing - defense!\'
\'Every time he found himself in a difficult situation, he either dodged or suppressed his opponent\'s attack with his superior strength. This style of fighting suited a man as arrogant as he is, so he certainly has no way of defending himself. He\'s a master at attacking, but nobody in defending!\' Virion inwardly exclaimed with an excited look before swinging his arm.
Crackle. Crackle. Crackle.
Circles pierced through the ceiling as three flaming blades rained down on Wain. He didn\'t even look at them as he distinctly felt how fast they were, so he just took a last-minute step back. The three circles whizzed right in front of his face, going into the ground, out of the arena, to strike again soon.
\'Wain, he seems to have figured out your weak spot.\' Gladius said in a serious voice.
\'Yeah...\' Wain nodded slightly, \'Well, I just need to get rid of these circles. Apparently, he can\'t control them completely, so it won\'t be hard.\'
