Chapter 578
Chapter 578 Wind Dragon Captured
“You don’t need to call for help from the dragonborn!”
A young man’s voice rang out from outside the cave.
“We have already dealt with the remnants of your dragonborn guards during the time you were out. Even if you broke your throat shouting, no one would come to your help.”
The man’s voice was crisp, clear, and firm. Anyone could tell this was an extremely confident person based on his voice alone.
Wind Dragon Cherkes’ massive body continuously shifted about as he tried to best move into a position to deal with the enemies on both sides.
The enemy hiding within the pile of gold coins and jewels had shown herself as well. She beat her bat wings and slowly hovered into the air above the dragon’s lair. She looked like a beautiful female girl. However, Cherkes could tell based on the strange aura casually radiating out of her body that this was a vampire, and a Second Grade vampire to boot!
Heavy footsteps rang out at the entrance to the lair behind him.
Dragonborn Zacha broke free of the stone wall after some extraneous effort. He spat out a mouthful of purple blood and could move like usual once more. He roared and charged forward again with his electric spear raised high.
Just then, Greem’s channeling of his fire spell that had lasted for thirty-seven seconds finally came to an end. Greem tried his best to capture the silhouette of the wind dragon, eyes flashing as he did so, all while he carefully maintained the strongest fire spell currently held in his hands.
Meteor Swarm!
It was a powerful fire spell that he had derived from the Fire Core Explosion and the Meteor Shower upon advancing to Second Grade.
It was the unchallenged champion of all of Greem’s spell when it came to pure power.
It was a single-target spell, and its power reached a shocking three hundred and forty points after all that channeling. It was already the most powerful attack that Greem could muster!
After a deathly pursuit, the wind dragon finally caught up to Mary with his superior speed.
The wind dragon let out a powerful wind breath. Mary couldn’t escape the area-of-effect before the wind breath reached her and was instantly blasted away by the tens of thousands of vortex blades.
Greem’s face turned grim when he saw Mary scream and become pressed against the wall by the wind breath that was now cutting up her body. He stepped forward, and the blindingly scarlet Meteor Swarm finally shot out.
At this moment, it wasn’t a Magma Fireball that shot out of Greem’s hand. It was a miniature rain of meteors.
The intense heat waves roasted the air and the earth around them, distorting the air and making everything seem odd and surreal. Greem completed the last chant of the spell; the meteors he held in his hand cut across the wide space within the belly of the mountain and hit the wind dragon before anyone could react.
The next second, a sun exploded beside the wind dragon!
The explosion’s shockwaves ravaged the entire lair. The mountainous pile of gold coins and jewels were thrown into the air, as if they had been met with a ninth level hurricane, before rapidly melting in the hot flame streams.
The flame streams were also destroying the rough stone walls around the dragon’s lair, and all the metal armor and swords that were hidden within the pile of treasure melted like wax.
The wind dragon had been hit from the side by the Meteor Swarm. The wind barrier that protected his body popped like a bubble in less than a single second. The heat pierced through his scales and magical resistance, instantly boiling the blood beneath his chest and vaporizing his muscles.
A massive scar appeared there, and a short moment later, the flesh beneath the injury exploded with a resounding boom. Large scales flew everywhere as a thick fountain of blood poured to the ground.
The wind dragon reared its head and let out an agonizing roar before powerlessly collapsing to the ground.
Even a defeated dragon should not be underestimated.
Dragonborn Zacha worked together with Mary, who had now broken free of the wind breath. Both of them together had to fight the dying wind dragon for almost another forty rounds before finally suppressing him.
By the time Greem casually walked into the battlefield with both hands behind his back, Zacha and Mary were already covered in blood and wounds.
That battle had once again verified the popular rumor of the multiverse.
Apart from the Titans, the starbeasts, and the rare few species of war, the dragons were truly undefeatable among those of the same grade!
If it weren’t for Zacha’s fearless tanking of the wind dragon’s attacks, Greem and Mary alone would have a hard time restricting Cherkes. If it weren’t for Mary drawing part of the firepower, Zacha would have had a hard time surviving at the hands of the wind dragon in a direct melee.
Then, the most crucial blow had been fired by Greem.
Without Greem, Zacha and Mary would have only been able to occupy the wind dragon and would have had no means to defeat it.
In the end, all three of them had been needed to capture the wind dragon.
Losing any one of them would have made it virtually impossible to defeat the wind dragon lord here today.
Even so, Greem still had his questions.
“Strange… so strange. Why does this wind dragon seem so weak?”
