Chapter 414 A Burning Battle
How terrifying was a magical creature at the peak of elite-level when it fought with all its strength?
If Greem had not known before this, he now knew it all too well!
The battle against Tula was agonizing.
His metallic body had excellent magic resistance. Even though it wasn’t all that good at defending against physical attacks, it was more than enough to deal with Greem’s pathetic strikes.
The battle that ensued upon this slowly rising sea of lava could be said to be brutal and savage. If Greem hadn’t had the foresight to unseal the Flame Fiend’s Heart, then Tula’s flurry of sharp limbs would have skewered him. Moreover, the pair of fangs at the opening of Tula’s mouth was extremely frightening.
The Ring of Fire sizzled as it burned Tula’s body, but it would be virtually impossible to rely on it to cripple the monster.
A magma fireball might only leave scorch marks when it crashed against its body, but the viscous lava that splashed on his body would still flow all over. There was no avoiding the fire damage and the unbearable pain he had to endure during this experience.
Greem continued to move around in the sea of lava as he exchanged blows with the demon-hunting spider. Meanwhile, he calmly connected with the tower. Every so often, a wave of magma fireballs would shoot out of the adept’s tower towards the giant spider.
The other magical creature lords quickly joined the fray after their initial panic. They could see that the sea of lava was still rising.
The Medusa relied on her long tail to swing between stone pillars and stone walls with the agility of a gecko. Sometimes, she would even be able to whirl across the ceiling. The strange longbow in her hands also demonstrated terrifying ability.
The arrows she shot out were, in fact, her hair of snakes.
Every time she drew the longbow back, a single silver snake would climb onto the bowstring from her head. When an arrow like this one reached the enemy, it would immediately loosen its body and turn into a venomous snake that savagely bit at the enemy.
If Greem didn’t have a powerful Ring of Fire to roast all the snake arrows that made it near him, he would have been put in an awkward position by the numerous venomous snakes he would have had to deal with.
Unguja, the three-headed demon hound, didn’t have Dana’s agility. He could only grab onto a stone pillar as tight as he could and slowly climb upwards, away from the sea of lava. He didn’t have any ability to attack Greem. In fact, sometimes he had to defend against the magma fireballs launched from the adept’s tower.
His three massive heads looked in every direction. Whenever something got close, he would fire a chain of wind blades, fireballs, and poison balls to intercept it.
The giant berserk gelada was clearly more suited to guerrilla warfare like this.
Its arms grabbed onto the stone walls like steel claws and moved around with complete ease. It occasionally grabbed a piece of the wall and threw it at Greem. Every time his projectiles connected with Greem, the adept stumbled, creating an opportunity for Tula to strike.
The more sinister dark tentacular climbed onto the ceiling like an octopus. It then leaped onto the tower and started searching for an entrance. The wyvern king aided him in his exploration.
The wyvern king possessed a robust body and sharp claws. Its attacks would always deal some damage to the tower. Stone dust fell from the damaged walls as it tore distressing cracks into the volcanic rock.
If it wasn’t for their wariness of the magma fireball barrages, they would probably already have broken through the walls of the tower and started a slaughter within!
That was only because the tower lacked enough energy to support a forcefield and an elementium barrier. Otherwise, there was no way they could have so easily touched the structure tower itself.
The battle raged on. If any one side were no longer able to keep up the intensity, they would instantly be overpowered by the other and be defeated.
The tensions were high!
