Chapter 407: 401: Ba Snake Backlash
Mason Rodney stared at the pillar of flames that turned the sky silver, his face solemn, and a vast amount of Arcane Force flowed into the Landlock Armor instantly.
“What a terrifying Dragon Roar, capable of penetrating the defense of the Battle Ground itself!”
Feeling the vibrations of the sound waves in the air, Margaret Yule couldn’t help but cover her aching ears, as the Defensive Arcane Implement in her arms quietly activated.
On the other side, as the earth split and the dust settled, the Greenwood Dragon barely moved in the Battle Ground. The ancient wood wrapped around its body suddenly shattered, and the Dragon Blood flowing on its tail stopped abruptly. “Blood?”
The Greenwood Dragon glanced down at its reddened body, revealing an unbelievable look in its eyes.
From birth until now, it was the first time it had been injured and bled!
As a True Dragon bred from the Flare power, its Dragon Scale possessed a defense strength ranked among the top three of the Overlord race, making it difficult for even a Fire Type Overlord of the same class to break through.
I admit I underestimated you, but the same attack won’t work on me!” Seeing the silver pillar of light continuing to strike, the Greenwood Dragon didn’t intend to dodge, or perhaps couldn’t dodge at its current speed. It raised its ancient wood-formed claws, and a vast and magnificent Wood Type Arcane Force gathered in an instant, condensing into a floating emerald armor.
“Boom!”
The Greenwood Dragon’s indestructible claw fiercely struck the second Destiny Judgement, causing the silver pillar to expand and explode. The terrifying energy, capable of uprooting mountains and crossing seas, relentlessly destroyed its Dragon Body.
A visible shock wave instantly flattened the surrounding area within thousands of meters.
Hearing the still vigorous and painful Dragon Roar amidst the dust and smoke David Jones glanced at the heavily exhausted and panting Daphne, a trace of ’ worry appearing on his face.
Two consecutive attacks failed to trigger a critical hit from Destiny Judgement, indicating that this Greenwood Dragon’s luck was still decent.
“Roar!”
The ground below Daphne suddenly burst, and countless ancient wood like dragons shot through the dust, stirring up a storm.
“Ten on the left, fifteen on the right, thirty-six below.”
At David Jones’ reminder, Daphne’s flaming palms blocked and shattered the approaching ancient woods one by one.
Fire overcomes wood, and before Daphne’s flames, the Greenwood Dragon’s ancient wood, which was nurtured by the earth, shattered as easily as glass. “Close combat it is!” David Jones commanded through his thoughts.
Since even Destiny Judgement couldn’t severely injure the Greenwood Dragon, instead of wasting Arcane Force and strength in a long-range attack, it was better to get closer and use the Destiny Flame to determine the outcome of the battle.
Upon hearing this, Daphne first tore through the attacking ancient woods with her claws, then aggressively and forcefully advanced towards the Greenwood Dragon with the Flame Emperor Shock.
“Very well, just like that. When you finally break through to me, I will personally show you the invincible Dragon Body of the Dragon race that can topple mountains and overwhelm seas.” Detecting Daphne’s intention, the Greenwood Dragon inwardly rejoiced.
Due to its slow speed, its innate terrifying strength was rarely used, and this might be a good opportunity to counter its opponent.
So the Greenwood Dragon pretended to go all out, as thick ancient woods swirled continuously around it, attempting to force back the steadily approaching Daphne with an overwhelming assault.
“The skill’s power has dropped by two whole levels – is this intentional or due to a decrease in strength?”
A faint golden light flashed in David Jones’ eyes, and he realized something was amiss with the aid of his Illusion-Piercing Eye.
“It’s trying to lure you closer, watch out for the Arcane Force gathering at the
tail of the Greenwood Dragon,” warned David Jones.
By this time, Daphne, cloaked in scarlet-gold flames, had already traversed the forest and advanced to within ten meters of the Greenwood Dragon.
“Perfect timing!”
The Greenwood Dragon immediately exploded with the astonishing Arcane Force it had stored deep within the earth.
A gigantic ancient tree, hundreds of meters in diameter and stretching from the ground to the sky, burst forth from the ravaged earth, surrounding Daphne completely.
“Got you!” Seeing Daphne’s movements restricted by the ancient trees and her speed dropping significantly, the Greenwood Dragon’s eyes lit up, and it hastily activated its Switching skill.
Aburst of greenish-blue light flashed from the Greenwood Dragon’s dragon scales. Its massive body merged into the ancient tree beside it and instantly appeared above Daphne’s head.
“It’s over, Azure Brilliance Breath!” Fred Hoyle’s eyes revealed a touch of excitement.
Immediately, the Greenwood Dragon raised its head and exhaled a terrifying mixture of green and blue breath.
At the same time, its lengthy tail merged with the ancient tree below and launched a vicious attack on Daphne’s right side with a bizarre angle.
“Now is the time, Destiny Flame!” David Jones calmly directed.
The power of Daphne’s eyes started to converge as an ancient golden Rune slowly emerged from her pupils.
Just like a nuclear explosion, the terrifying Destiny Flame erupted from the center of her body, rapidly incinerating the surrounding area in a blinding combination of intense light and raging flames.
“Impossible!”
Witnessing their Dragon Breath being extinguished without making a single ripple, as well as the terrifying sense of danger that almost pierced their entire body, the Greenwood Dragon couldn’t help but abandon its attack. It curled its body tightly, trying to withstand the assault with its impenetrable defense.
“Rumbling!”
Upon hearing the explosion and the return of the intense light on the Battle Ground, those in the audience couldn’t help but shudder in fear. Some even closed their eyes in fright.
“The battle for first place in the Myrtle List has ended, with David Jones as the winner.”
The smoke cleared, and people saw Mason Rodney, in his role as a referee, actually summon a Pet to intervene in the battle, protecting the Greenwood Dragon from harm.
It was a ferocious Beast with a massive body resembling a hornless cow but with ruby-like eyes and only two clawed feet.
“Blood Bull,” David Jones’ eyes flickered as he quickly recognized the Beast’s identity.
Known as the most domineering and powerful King among Thunder Beasts, the Blood Bull family was highly sought after by Thunder-type Trainers.
“That was so close. If I hadn’t asked Blood Bull to step in, the Greenwood Dragon might have fallen on the spot,” Mason Rodney said, looking at his Pet’s injured skin and casting an uneasy glance at Daphne.
Even the apex Class VI Blood Bull suffered from damaged skin after taking that terrifying blow, let alone the lower-level Class V Greenwood Dragon. How incredibly daunting the younger generation had become!
“Did I lose?”
Feeling a mournful cry from the miniature python in his Origin Star Space, Fred Hoyle’s face instantly darkened.
There was one fatal flaw to the similar Innate Talent of the old Mr. Clark’s snake, which allowed it to devour potential and fate: if it failed, its potential and fate would be counteracted by the opponent to some extent.
