Chapter 156
Greem was having a hard time in the battle of Adepts against Anderson.
It was worth mentioning that as an Adept who just made the advancement, compared to a veteran Adept like Anderson, whether it was his combat experience or his ability to cast magic spell, there was a huge gap between them. If you took the support and enhancement the Swampy Tower provided to Anderson into consideration, this battle had slowly become a one-sided one.
With just five minutes into the battle, Anderson had determined his combative superiority. A raging tornado carried countless wind blades and daggers kept breaking through the interception from Greem’s magic spells, spreading the flames of war closer to his side.
The transformation of Flame Fiend had given Greem a lofty and burly body, allowing him to own an intrepidly built and near limitless Fire element energy in the magic spell battle. But once he suffered a setback in the battle, the loophole in his defense was actually bigger than normal.
Greem himself was not a velocity-type Adept who specialized in agility. As a matter of fact, among all the data of his body attributes, Agility was his biggest weakness.
Therefore, the lofty flaming humanoid transformed from Greem was seen simply standing still where he was, the ground underneath his feet had melted into half-molten lava, and the space covered fifty meters radius around him was filled with rolling and steaming flames. Anyone who tried to get closer to him would have to first withstand an endless fire elemental damage.
It was perhaps this that might have helped him in establishing some superiority when fighting with an Adept who specialized in agility. However, when he was facing an Adept who never needed to worry about defense, an Element Adept who just had to attack with all he had, Greem’s weakness had become apparent.
The elemental affinity of Adept Anderson was Dark and Wind Elementium. As the result, though all the magic spells cast by him were mainly using Wind Elementium, they also carried Dark Elementium which brought a strong corrosive effect. A faint dark smoke always enshrouded the wounds on Greem’s body which were cut by those wind blades. If he didn’t use a huge amount of Fire element energy to wash and wipe off these Dark Elementiums, even with his high Physique, he wouldn’t be able to heal them quickly.
“Serve you right! Who let you use me as your escape goat. I really hate to be used by someone else, take this as a lesson. You better focus your attention on your internal war! And be careful, don’t let that puppet consciousness to devour you. If that really happened, it’ll be really interesting!” Greem sneered in a disdainful manner.
In the far distance, the figure of Anderson had been enveloped by the raging explosion of Elementium and turbulences, and no one could peek at what was happening inside. Greem had no choice but to turned around and walked towards Mary.
Indeed, the power of bloodline could allow an apprentice to grow up in a very short amount of time. But once the source of the bloodline fell into the hand of enemies, then the apprentice would become a puppet who had no command over oneself and would be left at the mercy of someone else!
The current Mary had turned into a ghostly assassin that went on rampage. She kept leaping and dashing around the Fire Lord at lightning speed, while the crimson longbow in her hand kept bursting out sounds of ‘twang’s, unleashing one after another crimson arrow and hitting the vitals of her opponent. It was obvious that Fire Lord only specialized in offensive and wasn’t really good in capturing and trapping. Therefore, after thrusting crazily toward Mary for a few times, relying on her high Agility, all its attempts were dodged by her with ease.
Yet, as Mary was an ‘ally’ of its master, the Fire Lord couldn’t wantonly launch attacks at her. Thus, when Greem was fighting Anderson with all his effort, the Fire Lord was locked in a tough battle against Mary!
At this point in time, Greem came over to their battlefield with his lofty body. When Mary intruded into his Ring of Fire, the flame in the air immediately transformed into flaming chains and tied her up tightly, pulling her in front of Greem.
Although Greem just became an official Adept, but when he wanted to deal with a Pseudo-Adept, he could still handle him or her with ease.
