Chapter Sixty-Seven: A Battle Without Nonsense
In mid-air, a black dragon far larger than an ordinary dragon was hovering in the clouds. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
It was large and muscular, and a mist of light permeated its surface, allowing the dragon to levitate in the air without having to flap its wings.
It was higher than the clouds, far above the rain and black fog, and a mist of negative energy thick enough to obscure the light poured out from the cracks in the dragon's scales, infecting the rain clouds and storms below, bringing a dead silence to the surrounding sea.
At this point, the seabirds within a radius of dozens of kilometers were extinct, and only the sea beasts eroded by the abyssal breath lingered.
Dead Smoke Grant doesn't hate this kind of work, but it's the best job for it.
Among the many creatures in the mortal world, the black dragon is the closest to the type of negative energy, even if it is the talent of the best of the undead, it can only be compared to them, as a master who can naturally control negative energy and water elements, any black dragon is a competent villain, they can easily pollute a city's water source, corrupt thousands of corpses, and the evil nature makes all black dragons happy to do this kind of thing.
And Grandy is undoubtedly the genius of the Black Dragon, as an evil dragon that has destroyed a human kingdom, even after a hundred years, its name is still used by parents in the Far South to intimidate children, and its realm of 'Endless Black Mist' has become a symbol of evil in many legends.
Suspended in the air using magic, Granty stared at the clouds, a circle of lilac light flashing in his sockets, allowing the dragon to clearly see the white wheels swaying between the storm and the waves.
That was its goal, the Church of the Seven's Temple Ark, the Time.
Originally, as the Extreme Dragon Lord, Grant was supposed to lead three dragon legions to participate in the siege of the Far Sea Sacred Mountain soon after, but for some reason, it was sent by the elders of the five-colored dragon clan to cooperate with his old partner 'Dead Dragon' Mandagar to guard the abyssal rift of the Abyss of Anos and destroy the exploration fleet of the Church of the Seven Gods.
The black dragon, who was originally a little resistant, immediately agreed happily after knowing that the human warrior who wounded it was also in the ark, dragons have a much stronger ability to hold grudges than humans, their disgust and hatred can last for hundreds of years, Granty's first battle after returning from seclusion, because the warrior was wounded, it absolutely could not swallow this evil breath.
Therefore, the black dragon happily promised his strange old partner to come and cooperate with those erosion sea beasts and abyssal monsters to block the ark of the Church of the Seven Gods from the central maelstrom.
Now it seems that Grant felt that this task was easy, now that the Ark of Time has been surrounded by a steady stream of sea beasts, even if it regains power, it will not be able to accelerate again, coupled with the continuous weakening of the fog it releases, it will not be long before all the crew members of the Ark will fall into a coma, and then gradually lose their vitality, and then die.
The clouds under the dragon's body occasionally flashed purple thunderbolts, and the violent roar shook its eardrums, and Granty shook his huge head slightly, unlike other dragons, the black dragon's favorite thing was the deep sea abyss and the poisonous swamps, and it was still a little unaccustomed to the high winds.
Granty lost his mind for a second.
And that's when the battle began.
Beneath the clouds, an inconspicuous black-red light lit up, and the reacting black dragon had just shifted his gaze to the point of light, and the point of light ignited the sky, turning the gray rain clouds into red.
And a rapid streamer has already arrived under Granty's body, and the human figure with a blazing fighting spirit haunting his body made a simple dragon fist, which simply slammed into the black dragon's abdomen, and immediately you could see that the countless purple-black scales on the dragon's abdomen were shattered inch by inch, and the thick muscles and internal organs were deformed and folded under the pressure of the huge force.
“――――――――!!”
With its eyes wide and its mouth wide open, Granty was hit in the abdomen by this heavy punch, and couldn't even scream, it could only subconsciously spit out a mouthful of turbid gas in its lungs, and then the light and mist all over its body flowed rapidly - with a crisp sound, the huge body dozens of meters long disappeared in an instant.
Trigger teleportation at short distances.
"I knew it was you, Granty!"
Only then did the sound belated, bursts of violent sonic booms mixed with shock waves, surging wildly in all directions along the trajectory of the streamer, the originally roaring thunderclouds were dispersed in an instant, and Joshua, who was burning with fighting spirit, stood high in the air, he looked around, his red eyes turned, looking for the location of the black dragon after teleporting.
After a few seconds, the warrior found his target, he raised his palm, waved his knife in the air, and a thick cloud in the distance suddenly split in half, revealing the black dragon behind him who was angry and was quickly healing his wounds.
As early as a hundred years ago, Granti, who had fought with various powerhouses on the mainland, had a cautious style, and would never attack if he could sneak attack, and never fight if he could plot, but once it reached the point where he had to fight head-on, his style was extremely decisive, and he never said half a word of nonsense.
The huge dragon claw was raised, and the scales of its dragon arm were inscribed with numerous magic runes, almost equivalent to a legendary-level staff, and only to hear a low dragon voice, a faint gray light shot straight out towards Joshua.
And the warrior who had already entered the combat state could not be hit by this attack, and the death finger containing the aura of death was bounced open by his fighting energy barrier. The gray light shot obliquely into the thunderclouds, and the thick clouds broke up in an instant, and the mist in them was completely broken down into gas by the high-energy magic, and then the high temperature ignited it and turned into flames in the sky.
Taking advantage of this gap, Joshua hurried in the direction where Granty was, and the violent fighting spirit exploded behind him, allowing the warrior's speed to cross a distance of thousands of meters in a fraction of a second, but the black dragon was no longer in place, and through another teleportation technique, it had come to the air thousands of meters above the warrior's head.
At this time, the black dragon was nearly eight thousand meters away from the sea level, the atmosphere in this position was thin and extremely cold, even the ubiquitous elements were difficult to respond to the call of the spellcaster, but Grant was a powerful black dragon after all, it extracted the long-accumulated magic power from its own body, and then stretched out the dragon's finger, continuously releasing various powerful spells.
Fire, Ice, Lightning, Acid, Death, Magic, Petrification, Negative Energy...... All kinds of different types of spells seemed to bombard, shooting at Joshua with precision, and many different types of damage made it difficult for the warrior's fighting spirit barrier to resist, not to mention that it was also mixed with invisible curses and weakenings.
The triple combo of flames, lightning and acid hit Joshua's fighting energy barrier, and the powerful energy flow broke through it, but it also gave him a chance to dodge, and a bang sounded, and the warrior who had found the position of the black dragon pulled out a vacuum channel and came directly to Granty's side.
The black dragon wants to repeat the old trick and use the teleportation technique again to open the distance, and the battle between the caster and the warrior is like this, one side wants to keep the distance and maintain the rhythm of the spell, and the other side keeps closing the distance and bringing the other party into its own attack range.
But this time it was different, Joshua, who had been prepared for a long time, simply punched into the void the moment he noticed the ripples in time and space, and the powerful fighting spirit crushed the twenty-seven magic nodes used by the black dragon to open the teleportation channel, and the warrior also approached at the same time, grabbing Granty's right claw.
"Roar!"
Immediately, the black dragon immediately roared, and then this dragon roared, it chanted dragon magic at high speed, and suddenly the pitch-black mist poured out from the scales of the dragon's right claw, which is the most condensed negative energy, comparable to the water of the river Styx in the abyss, except for the black dragon who has already transformed itself into a half-undead, all living creatures cannot resist the erosion of this mist.
But after a moment, Granty was shocked to find that Joshua did not let go of his hand.
The muscles on the warrior's body swelled due to the stimulation of the fighting spirit, making him even more burly, but in front of the black dragon that was dozens of meters high, Joshua still looked insignificant, but such a small human showed a sneer at the huge dragon in the extremely condensed negative energy mist.
The skin on the surface was melted by negative energy, and the muscles at the bottom were also corroded into pits, but with a roar from the warrior, the blazing black and red fighting qi would disperse these mist, as the manifestation of vitality, the fighting energy was originally opposite to the negative energy, and the two were as incompatible as fire and water, and only the stronger side could exist.
Obviously, Joshua's fighting spirit was more majestic than the black mist released by Granty in a hurry, and the warrior who fought with all his strength began to metabolize violently, and as a result, in just three seconds, all the wounds on his body were completely renewed, and all the muscles and skin that had been melted grew back, and even became tougher.
Only a transcendent body that has truly assimilated with life energy can use this terrifying high-speed regeneration, and if it were an ordinary person, the loss of vitality in an instant could make them grow old by more than ten years.
The muscles on his arms bulged, and the power of his fighting spirit penetrated his whole body, and the warrior shouted angrily, and the dragon claw in his hand was broken in response, and the black dragon was hit hard, and he couldn't control the suspension spell that was fixed on his body, and fell straight down like a meteor.
And Joshua held the black dragon claw in his hand, and this half-dead body full of negative energy seemed to turn into a burning firewood under the impact of his strong fighting energy, and the blazing flames burst out from it, surrounding the warrior's side.
The red eyes locked on the black dragon that escaped from his attack range by falling, Joshua kicked the atmosphere in the air, the thin air at an altitude of eight thousand meters was as temporary as a steel plate under his huge stamping, and the powerful reaction force accelerated the warrior to several times the speed of sound in an instant, his left elbow slammed, and it hit the black dragon's back directly, and the crisp sound of bone shattering could be heard in mid-air, and at the same time, the ensemble also had the dragon's scream.
On the surface of the sea, on the deck of the Ark of Time, everyone who had been easily destroying the attacking sea beasts raised their heads in unison, and an entangled huge meteor was falling obliquely towards the sea with the fire light generated by rapid friction.
The sky, crimson.
