Chapter 952 - Badly Wounded Once Again
Chapter 952 Badly Wounded Once Again
Katherine’s body spun wildly, turning into a golden tornado as she gripped her metal spike tightly with both hands and went for the Flame Fiend’s heart.
The timing of her attack was impeccable– it was the small window when Greem had just completed his Fire Teleportation. Moreover, Greem’s movements were far less agile and slower to react after he transformed into a Flame Fiend.
Her attack was also targeted at the most crucial high-energy organ. If she succeeded in her ambush, the damage to Greem would either kill him or cripple him without a doubt.
However, Greem had pursued her all the way here to Hakans. He also knew that she had hidden herself secretly before the battle broke out.
How could he not have prepared a contingency for her!
He was not fast enough to escape Katherine’s attacks with the Flame Fiend’s movement speed, while enduring her well-prepared attack at close range would only be a foolish decision. As such, Greem disintegrated without any hesitation!
As Katherine turned into a violent golden tornado, and the tip of her sharp spikes was only half a meter away from making contact with the Flame Fiend’s magma armor, this humongous six-meter tall-giant made of magma, lava, and flames instantly disintegrated.
This flaming tiger was unusually difficult to deal with!
Unlike the elementium forms of ordinary elementium creatures, this flaming tiger had a completely different body that was tough and sturdy.
Indeed, his half-elementiumized body seemed to have been mixed with some sort of strange metal, causing it to display astounding toughness comparable to super magical alloys. The remaining half of Katherine’s human face couldn’t help but twitch at the sight of this vicious flaming tiger confronting her in a melee battle, yielding not a single inch to her metal blades and spikes.
She was screaming internally, even as she fought.
It was important to note that these five disc-blades and two metal spikes were all high-grade magical equipment. They were not only made with extremely tough materials but had also been enhanced with multiple practical anti-magic effects.
Yet, even compound attacks like these felt like beating against a solid statue forged of super-alloy when they hit the tiger. Apart from some sparks and a deafeningly loud sound, they could not even slice off a single hair from the tiger.
The flaming tiger was also taking full advantage of his sturdy flame body. He lunged, pounced, spewed fire, swept with his tail, and let out stunning tiger roars, leaving Katherine with no time or space to spare at all, much less to split her attention and search for the damned fire adept.
However, her sharp battle instincts allowed her to faintly sense a deeply hostile intent flowing through the fires around her. Unfortunately, the flaming tiger’s actions left her with no ability to determine the source of that hostile intent.
It undoubtedly made the already wounded and occupied Katherine become increasingly frustrated and suspicious of everything around her.
Just as Katherine was starting to be consumed by paranoia, Cindral let out a huge roar. His overwhelming and berserk aura gathered into a cone-shaped shockwave that crashed into Katherine’s quickly moving body.
The Blade Princess’ petite body shivered slightly, and her mind was blown into a slight daze from the abrupt soundwave attack. Both Cindral and the hiding Greem pounced at this excellent opportunity, blasting Katherine with their most ferocious attacks.
Aaaaaah!
Even with her arrogance, Katherine could feel the aura of death approach her from the attacks by two powerful Third Grades.
She no longer dared to hold back. She lifted her head and let out a sky-rending screech. A dozen disc-blades shot out of her body and formed a fearsome array of destruction in tandem with the first five blades. They spun wildly around her body.
Any attack or spell that attempted to hurt her would first have to be sliced and slashed up by the metal array. It was a multi-layered composite attack. Any being that wished to break through to Katherine’s side would have to endure one hundred and seventy-three physical damage every second.
Moreover, once these attacks added up, even the toughest of defensive spells would fall.
Cindral had just reached Katherine and left seven fearsome gashes on her body with his flaming claws. He was shocked and quickly fled from the blades. Even as quick as he was, he was still viciously slashed by seven or eight of the blades.
Damage of this level was too much for Cindral’s body, even after it had been strengthened.
A pained roar rang out as Cindral scrambled out of the blade array.
On the other side, the powerful Third Grade fire spell that Greem had prepared for so long was already locked onto Katherine. It was Molten World. A blindingly dense fire halo appeared beneath Katherine’s feet as a massive pillar of flame abruptly erupted with Katherine at its very center.
The temperature of the surroundings rose rapidly. A thousand degrees…two thousand degrees…three thousand degrees.
The overwhelming heat ignited all of Katherine’s clothes and caused her exposed flesh to become red-hot. The blistering air made it difficult for her to breath. She felt the few flesh organs within her body shrivel and char as she did so.
Manipulating five disc-blades was Katherine’s usual level of ability. She would only release all the blades within her when she was fighting for her life.
The tremendous Spirit exhaustion caused by this move was intolerable, even with her Spirit!
Katherine no longer cared about attacking Greem. Instead, she fled away as fast as she could with her severely injured body.
This time, she truly could not bear any more damage!
