Whoosh.

The Knight Marionette's sword slashed across the Inferno Tyrant's chest with a whistling wind.

Although it was not even half a meter away from the Inferno Tyrant, the violent and swift wind pressure brought about by the violent power still broke through the dense layer of flames on the surface of the Inferno Tyrant's body, leaving a white sword mark on his chest.

Just as the sword slashed across, the Tower Shield in the Knight Marionette's other hand slammed towards him like a city wall. Before the shield even reached him, the strong wind pressure had already suppressed the flames on the Inferno Tyrant's body.

At this moment, even the air, which was usually ignored by others, seemed to have become solid!

The energy reserve in Grimm's mind dropped by 2%. He had no choice but to give up on the idea of taking on the Knight Marionette's "Shield Bash" head-on and took a few steps back. As he retreated, he threw out a series of Bursting Fireballs in a frenzy, blocking the enemy's advance. His eyes shot out two laser-like rays of light, slicing horizontally at the Knight Marionette's neck.

Bursting Fireballs exploded between the two of them. The violent flame shockwaves made the two big guys feel like they were small boats sailing against the current. It was difficult for them to move forward.

The Bursting Fireballs with an elemental strength of 70 degrees were a big threat even to official wizards, but they did not cause any damage to the Knight Marionette.

On one side was a metal Knight Marionette, which could ignore damage below 80 degrees. Damage above 80 degrees had to be reduced by the special elemental damage reduction of magic iron alloys. Therefore, without an attack of more than 100 degrees, one could not expect to cause any visible damage to the Knight Marionette.

On the other side, the Inferno Tyrant was immune to low to moderate fire damage. Only the Knight Marionette's violent physical attacks could cause irreversible energy loss.

Therefore, Grimm's Bursting Fireballs were not meant to cause any damage to the enemy, but to use the shockwaves after the Bursting Fireballs to interrupt the Knight Marionette's continuous battle techniques, so that he would not be killed by it.

This was actually the scariest thing about high-level Knights!

Once you were entangled by their battle techniques, it was impossible for you to be slapped away by a shield or sent flying by a sword. As long as you were hit by their battle skills, you would feel that everything had already gone out of your control. You would only tremble as you retreated step by step. Then, you would be cut to death by their continuous fast swords.

In the previous round, the Inferno Tyrant that Grimm controlled had been unable to dodge in time and had been hit by the magic marionette knight. It had lost 17% of its energy reserves. That was why Grimm had been preparing fireballs at all times in order to interrupt the Marionette Knight's continuous attacks when he was about to use his sword skills.

Using his Elemental Vision, Grimm was able to analyze the movement of the energy within the magic marionette's body.

Whenever the energy in the marionette knight's body started to gather at its right wrist, shoulder, and waist, it meant that it was about to launch a spinning slash. Whenever energy began to gather at its feet and back, it meant that it was about to "charge." And when the energy gathered at both his feet and his right wrist at the same time, it meant that it might be a "sudden stab" …

After such a long battle, the A.I. Chip had completely captured and analysed all the battle techniques and techniques that the opponent had. The price that the Inferno Tyrant had to pay was 85% of its energy!

Ever since his opponent's battle techniques had been analysed, the Inferno Tyrant had never been hit by his opponent's battle techniques again. Instead, every time the opponent was about to launch a battle technique, the Inferno Tyrant would escape from the position of being attacked as if he had foreseen it. Then, he would take advantage of the moment when the battle technique was launched to repeatedly attack the joints of the opponent's right leg.

There had originally been a disc-shaped protective kneecap there, but after Grimm's continuous efforts, it had been burnt through. This way, the marionette knight's ball-shaped joints were inevitably exposed.

Perhaps the puppet master had given some strict orders, or perhaps the marionette knight's own battle instincts were playing tricks on it. After realizing that its leg joints had lost their protection, the marionette knight once again picked up the giant tower shield and began to deliberately protect its lower limbs.

However, this also meant that it had lost its original nimbleness. Its movement and attack speed had decreased by more than 40%.

Grimm also took the opportunity to instruct the Inferno Tyrant to jump from the inside to the outside. He began to exert his strength from a distance, using Lava Fireballs and Molten Core Explosions to repeatedly attack the sluggish marionette knight.

Pure elemental spells were not bad at all when fighting against a large metallic lump like the marionette knight. Moreover, single-target spells like Lava Fireballs, which had both physical and elemental attacks, were more condensed. Of course, the effects of the Light of Blazing Flames were not bad either!

However, it was more difficult to condense the Light of Blazing Flames, and it required continuous guidance. It was very easy for the marionette knight to seize the opportunity to beat it up. Therefore, after trying a few times, Grimm could only helplessly give up and focus on using Lava Fireballs to wreak havoc on the opponent.

In order to reduce his energy consumption, Grimm did not even use his favorite Flame Barrier. He only used pure Flame Leap and Lava Fireballs. Even if only two or three of his attacks hit the enemy, it would still cause a certain amount of damage to the marionette knight.

Moreover, the lava splashed by the Lava Fireballs was sticky. If it stuck to the marionette knight's body for a long time, it would also cause some continuous damage. The debris formed after the solidified lava collapsed became the greatest enemy of the mechanical gears. It was very easy for them to get stuck in the gaps and distort the movements of the marionette knight.

At this point in the battle, almost everyone with eyes could see that the marionette knight's glory was no longer there. Although it still had the initiative in the battle, its damage to the Inferno Tyrant was also plummeting. Many times, it could only chase after the burning man's butt all over the battlefield.

After the Inferno Tyrant got through the difficult battle pattern at the beginning, he had already completely grasped the rhythm of the battle. He used the battlefield flexibly to move around and use the endless Lava Fireballs to gnaw at the marionette knight's body bit by bit.

Although the surface of the marionette knight's body had some traces of melting, the rest of its body was still intact. However, when it did not successfully destroy the Crystal Core in the elemental puppet's body in close combat, it also indicated that it had already lost control of the battle.

Moreover, its injured right leg was still a worrying hidden danger!

With the giant tower shield, it could protect this hidden danger, but it could not catch up to the enemy. If it abandoned the tower shield, it might be able to entangle the enemy again, but the hidden danger …

For a moment, even Luno, who was constantly giving orders at the side of the battlefield, began to worry and hesitate.

However, at this moment, Grim began to take the initiative to attack.

It could not be helped. The Inferno Tyrant's energy consumption had already reached 89%. It was simply impossible for him to defeat the enemy through a marathon battle. He could only end the battle quickly.

Unknowingly, a Flame Scepter had already appeared in the hands of the Inferno Tyrant. With a bang, a pillar of fire shot up, and the tall and imposing body of the Fire Djinn appeared in the battlefield.

Everyone outside the battlefield was shocked at the same time.

After all, the Fire Djinn's nearly ten-meter tall body was too deceptive and intimidating.

However, when the Mages sensed the Fire Djinn's strength level through their perception, they all shook their heads and sighed.

In a battle between marionettes of this level, what use could a quasi-Wizard-level fire elemental creature have?

However, before everyone could think too much, the Fire Djinn had already lowered its body and pounced towards the marionette knight with its huge fist.

Distract? Self-destruct? Or perhaps it was just …

Before Luno could give the marionette knight the order to defend or attack, the Fire Djinn that had pounced close to the opponent had already self-destructed!

The abrupt explosion of a ring of flames instantly engulfed the surroundings of the marionette knight, turning the earth and sky into a chaotic sea of fire. Moreover, as the violent flames and the terrifying flow of flames collided wantonly, a cage made of pure elemental flames suddenly appeared and trapped the marionette knight within it.

In the next second, the Inferno Tyrant's terrifying body that was wreathed in flames appeared beside the Flame Cage. A strange smile appeared on his blackish-red face of flames. Then, a powerful Sorcery Book with a black cover suddenly appeared in his hands.

The Secret Voodoo Poison Scroll!

As a soul equipment, when Grim transferred his consciousness into the core of the Inferno Tyrant, the Secret Voodoo Poison Scroll could also be used by the Inferno Tyrant.

A vigorous and deep roar sounded in the void. The Inferno Tyrant quickly guided the powerful spells in the Secret Voodoo Poison Scroll, and the Molten Fire Core exploded one after another on the marionette knight's body like a chain of fireballs.

The attack power of the Molten Fire Core was as high as 191 degrees, and each one of them was enough to instantly kill a Magus who had not made sufficient preparations for defense. At this moment, six extremely powerful Molten Fire Core exploded inside the Flame Cage at the same time, and the superimposed effect of the spells formed reached an effect that was even more terrifying to Magi.

The terrifying temperature of the flames nearing 10,000 degrees appeared in the core area of the Molten Fire Core, and the damage to the marionette knight was enough to be fatal.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the marionette knight frantically used a giant tower shield to cover its body, and then gathered all its energy to break through the Flame Cage in one fell swoop. Finally, it managed to escape with great difficulty. Unfortunately, with its injured leg dragging it down, its speed of escape was not fast enough, and it was still caught up by the terrifying flow of flames that swept out.

The marionette knight, who had previously been able to withstand a temperature of 7,000 degrees, really could not withstand it anymore at this moment.

The surface of the giant tower shield that protected its body had already been scorched red and softened. Molten iron continuously flowed down like lava, causing the shield's thickness to become thinner and thinner. Finally, the tower shield was corroded, and the terrifyingly high temperature flow of flames blew on the marionette knight's body, burning the originally smooth and exquisite armor into a piece of pit.

All the patterns and edges of the armor had already melted and softened, and then, like hot wax, it softened into mud.

The marionette knight was struggling to escape, but it suddenly felt that the light in front of it had dimmed.

A tall, black and red figure blocked in front of it.

With an explosive boom, the tall figure's monstrous black and red lava hand forcefully broke into the already softened marionette knight's chest, and then forcibly pulled out a mechanical heart with magic patterns.

Having suddenly lost the control center, the marionette knight's body suddenly stiffened, and then its entire body became bright red.
