The raging flames spread like a sea.
Two tall figures fought with all their might in the middle of the sea of fire.
Although both of them were wizard puppets without any flesh, the intensity of the battle was enough to make people excited and unable to control their emotions.
The magic puppet knight was obviously a close-combat puppet. Although it also had some semi-long-range attack abilities, when faced with a powerful opponent like the Inferno Tyrant, it would still be more effective if it used its fists to hit the flesh and blades to the bone. In order to prevent the opponent from escaping its attack range with Flame Leap again, the magic puppet knight gave up on its tower shield for defense. Instead, it brandished its sword and circled around the Inferno Tyrant.
Every time the Inferno Tyrant wanted to jump away, it would be interrupted by the raging sword skills. It could only stay where it was and become a target for the opponent's continuous attacks.
The left forearm wrapped in flames was chopped off, then regenerated …
The two thick legs under it were chopped off, then regenerated …
The right shoulder was pierced into a hole in the front and back, then regenerated …
The Inferno Tyrant had become a loyal training target. Its tall body of flames was chopped by the knight's sword, and sparks flew everywhere.
However, the Inferno Tyrant was indeed a terrifying monster born from flames. The chopped off arm fell to the ground and became a raging flame, while the broken legs suddenly exploded into a sea of fire. Even though it was chopped to pieces, what flowed out of its body was not only hot lava, but also terrifying flames.
However, the Inferno Tyrant was indeed a terrifying demon that was born from flames. The arms that had been chopped off fell onto the ground and turned into raging flames, while his legs that had been chopped off suddenly exploded into a sea of fire. Even though he had been chopped until there was not a single piece of skin left unscathed, what flowed out of his body other than scorching lava was still terrifying flames.
Fire!
Flames that filled the sky!
The extreme flames that could burn without any fuel, coupled with the Inferno Tyrant's protective Flame Barrier, turned the entire battlefield within a hundred meters into a world of black-red lava.
The originally hard stone floor was roasted into slowly flowing, viscous lava. The temperature of the air in the field rose rapidly due to the heat. Within ten meters of the two wizard puppets, the temperature of the air had already reached a shocking 7,000 degrees.
In such a terrifying temperature, anything that was not protected by the spell would be vaporized. Even the floor under their feet that was protected by the spell formation could not withstand such a high temperature, and had already become a semi-molten liquid. Thus, the two big fellows were practically fighting in a sea of lava and flames.
With Grimm and the A.I. Chip controlling the Inferno Tyrant at the same time, it could have broken free from the puppet knight's control long ago. However, for the sake of victory, Grimm still gritted his teeth and controlled the Inferno Tyrant to keep pestering the puppet knight.
Yes, at this point, it was hard to tell who was in control of who!
The magic puppet knight was slashing valiantly. Every time it waved its longsword and hammered its giant fists, it could bring a heavy blow to the Inferno Tyrant's body of flames. Perhaps the body that had fallen off could be replenished with the fire element reserves in the crystal core, but the fire energy that had been lost was real and hard to replenish once it dissipated into the void.
The reason why the Inferno Tyrant was able to form his own home ground so quickly was actually because he relied on this part of the Fire Element Energy that was quickly being consumed.
During this time, Grimm's Flame Tyrant was only focused on one thing.
That was to focus the flames on the right knee joint of the marionette knight. He planned to use the terrifying and pure light of the flames to melt the metal at the joints of the marionette knight's knee joint, distorting it and melting it, thus weakening the opponent's mobility.
It could be seen that when this marionette knight was created, in order to give it more nimble movements and make it easier to use some powerful knight battle techniques, Runo had used a humanoid design. Although this allowed the marionette knight to be far more nimble than normal metal marionettes, it inevitably had the flaws of a human.
The joints of the marionette knight's limbs were its greatest weakness.
The energy center and control center were hidden in the thick chest, which was also the place with the tightest defense. It was very difficult for outsiders to penetrate the defense of the Anti-Magic Tower Shield and the knight's sword to attack there. Thus, Grimm had to settle for the next best thing, and instead focused on attacking the joints of the marionette knight's lower limbs.
Although it was still made of the Mandasor alloy, which was excellent in both physical and magical defense, it was the same excellent metal that was used for the Anti-Magic Tower Shield. However, even the best metal had its limits! Against a top-notch magic puppet like the Inferno Tyrant, coupled with the terrifying heat brought about by the light of the flames, even if the marionette knight had consciously protected its joints, it still could not stop Grimm's determination and madness.
Thus, when the two separated again after a quarter of an arduous battle, they were both riddled with injuries, and it was difficult for them to continue.
The Inferno Tyrant had already lost 46% of its energy reserves, and some parts of its body had been destroyed by the opponent more than ten times. However, under the meticulous detection and guidance of the A.I. Chip, it was only injured and not killed, and the magic puppet crystal core in its body was still perfectly protected.
Thus, when the two separated, the extremely miserable looking Inferno Tyrant only used 7% of its energy reserves to repair its body. The marionette knight opposite him was still full of vigor. It had just trudged out of the lava pool with difficulty, and it once again waved its sword and pounced at the Inferno Tyrant.
Thus, the second fierce battle quickly erupted on a new battlefield!
The surrounding Magi and acolytes watched the battlefield silently. Everyone had solemn expressions, and for the first time, they lost their confidence in this battle between elemental puppets and metal war puppets. This was because they could clearly see that when the marionette knight charged at the terrifying fire puppet for the second time, its right leg was no longer as nimble as before.
Runo, who had been watching the battle from afar, was completely stunned. The battle that he had expected should not have turned out like this!
As a marionette master, he was all too clear about the strengths and weaknesses of metal war puppets.
Most metal war puppets were built with magic iron alloys that were outstanding in physical defense and had a certain degree of resistance to magic. Thus, they had the best defense against stabbing weapons such as swords and spears. However, these kinds of war puppets were more afraid of heavy weapons such as war hammers, flails, and giant axes for a long period of time. This was because the heavy hacking and hammering could easily damage spell formations and runic circuits that were heavily protected.
Thus, ordinary magic puppets would be built as thick and round as possible, using a thick metal shell and terrifying weight to avoid being damaged by heavy weapons.
As for the marionette knight that he had created, he had used the rare Mandasorian alloy shield and magic greatsword, as well as a high-grade knight's war soul. Thus, in order to maximize the combat power of the knight's war soul, the marionette knight had a slender body shape of an agile warrior.
As for the defense of an agile warrior, a sturdy tower shield could make up for it. Thus, this marionette knight had the high attack power of an agile warrior and the high defense of a shield warrior.
With this high defense and high attack power, as well as the combat skills of the knight's war soul, this marionette knight was so powerful that it had defeated the puppet runes sent by two trading companies.
However, he had never expected that his marionette knight would encounter an even stronger elemental puppet here today.
Under the precise command of the puppeteer, the opponent's Elemental Puppets displayed unimaginably terrifying combat power in close combat. One was a metal marionette with a body of steel, while the other was an elemental puppet covered in flames. In close combat, the marionette knight did not have much of an advantage!
Just now, Runo had seen very clearly that the powerful combat skills that the marionette knight had used were all dodged in advance by the fire man. Even those attacks that were difficult to dodge were negated by the damage to its body, and it did not display its true power at all.
Meanwhile, the fire man's attacks were as firm and persistent as ever, attacking the marionette knight's leg joints to weaken its mobility.
Therefore, every time the two big guys came together and fought until the earth shook and the earth turned upside down, Runo's heart would burn with anxiety as if it was on fire.
In the beginning, he could still insist on not getting involved in the close combat between the marionette knight and the Inferno Tyrant. After all, the knight's war soul that had been integrated into the marionette knight knew more about combat than he did!
However, when he saw the terrifying fire man once again draw out the marionette knight's greatsword at the cost of a large area of its body, and then cause minor damage to the marionette's leg joints, Runo was furious.
Damn it, this bastard opponent could even deceive the marionette knight's combat instincts!
Marionette knights in close combat often faced such a choice: to continue attacking and continue to cause more damage to the opponent, or to choose to defend and prevent the opponent from continuing to attack their legs.
However, the terrifying fire man would always give the best opportunity to attack, thus luring the marionette knight to attack itself. And it would take advantage of the opportunity when the opponent was busy attacking to slowly destroy the marionette knight's leg joints bit by bit.
After all, the marionette knight was only a rigid, fused soul. Once it determined that the damage caused to the opponent by its attacks was far greater than the minor damage it suffered, it would attack without a care. And this was precisely used by the damned fire man.
The opponent was using a large amount of energy consumption in exchange for the "insignificant" damage on the marionette knight's body. However, the location of the damage was a little special, and they were all concentrated on the marionette knight's right leg joints.
Once he understood this, Runo no longer dared to let the marionette knight rely on its instincts to fight. Instead, he forcefully ordered it to first choose to defend or dodge when its legs were attacked.
Unfortunately, at this moment, the Inferno Tyrant had already chosen to attack!
… …
The scene in front of him shook violently.
The chip in his mind was already beeping with intense alarms.
[Beep, warning, warning. Energy reserves have been depleted by 78%. Estimated battle duration: 25 minutes 17 seconds …]
Grimm had already made the Inferno Tyrant pay a heavy price in order to cripple one of his opponent's legs. Unfortunately, even though most of the energy had been depleted, the opponent was still only injured and not crippled. He still maintained his powerful mobility and attack power.
Moreover, under the command of the marionette knight, the marionette knight had already become more and more cautious, leaving less and less opportunities for the Inferno Tyrant to attack.
If this went on, the opponent only needed to rely on defense and counterattack to be able to exhaust the Inferno Tyrant to death.
