The Flame Dragon Cavern wasn't completely defenseless!
As soon as Grimm landed, two Fiery-Maw Drakonians roared and pounced out of the cave. Their long-handled axes glowed with a red radiance as they viciously swung them at the enemies who had yet to stabilize their footing.
Advanced Tier 1!
The two Fierymaw Draconians were Advanced Tier 1 Elites, but against a Tier 2 Sorcerer, they were nothing.
A Resistance Ring of Fire pushed the two Draconians far away. Grimm lightly patted the voodoo scroll on his waist, and the voodoo doll and the sewing puppet floated out of it.
"They're yours now …"
Grimm gave them a simple order and ignored the two Draconians.
The two wizard servants giggled, and just like that, floated towards the tall and burly Dragonoid Warrior.
At this moment, Mary and the two Blood Knights flew down from the cavern. Although they had the strength of a Grade 2 Assassin, the three of them were still disgusted by this environment. Wisps of black smoke could be faintly seen rising from their bodies.
Just as Mary was cursing the vile environment, a long, mournful scream came from the ravine. Immediately afterward, the Goblin Ripper's massive body slammed into the ground like a weight.
Although Tigole was doing his best to maintain his balance in mid-air, he was still able to slow the Goblin Ripper down from the hole on his back. Unfortunately, the air currents in the ravine were chaotic, making it difficult for the Goblin Ripper to control its flight path. In the end, it could only plummet to the ground like a heavy piece of metal.
Grimm sighed inwardly and waved at the Goblin Ripper that was falling from the sky.
A red glow immediately wrapped around the Goblin Ripper's massive body and began to slow it down. When the Goblin Ripper's speed was reduced, the red glow began to move horizontally towards the teleportation platform under the guidance of a strange force.
"Thank you, Boss … Thank you, Boss …" After the Goblin Ripper stabilized itself on the platform, Tigole's frightened and shrill voice came from within the Goblin Ripper.
It seemed that the Goblin Ripper still had some flaws. He would have to find time to improve it in the future.
Olivia and Bliss, the Insect Lich, were able to reach the teleportation platform on their own, but when it was Zachary's turn, Grim had no choice but to pull him over.
When Dragonman Zacha landed and Grim turned around, the voodoo doll and the sewing doll were already floating in front of him, giggling. As for the two Fire-Maw Dragonians, one of them had been poisoned to death on the spot with a livid expression, while the other's eyes had almost popped out of their sockets, his face filled with terror and unease. His death was especially miserable.
At this point, other than the old fox, Venlier, who was too weak and had to stay outside to find a place to hide, the other members of the team were all present.
Next up would be the highlight of this trip, finding the Tier 2 Fire Dragon.
From the Teleportation Platform, everyone first had to pass through the winding Fire Dragon Labyrinth that was filled with traps. If they didn't think of a way to pass through the maze, they wouldn't even have the qualifications to face the fire dragon.
"Blitz, it's up to you!" Grim instructed in a low voice.
The reason he brought the Grade 1 Blitz along for this dragon-slaying operation was for this moment.
Clad in a black robe that completely covered his body, Blitz nodded slightly and took a step forward. Facing the fiery red passageways that extended in all directions, his entire body suddenly crumbled.
The black robe fluttered soundlessly, and countless black beetles swarmed out from under it. They weren't big, but their movements were abnormally fast and ferocious. The huge swarm instantly split into five to six insect armies of similar sizes, crawling towards the different passageways in front of them.
Although these insects had split into different groups, they were still under Blitz's mental control. Every time an insect army met a new fork in the road, they would naturally split into even more insect armies. Like a black torrent with infinite forks, they quickly drowned every passageway in the Fire Dragon Labyrinth.
However, if the Fire Dragon Labyrinth was so easily explored, it wouldn't have become the trump card of the Fire Dragon Lord.
A moment later, rumbling explosions suddenly sounded from various parts of the Fire Dragon Labyrinth.
Blitz's swarm of insects had finally triggered the magic traps and terrifying mechanisms that were everywhere. Every explosion meant that tens or even hundreds of insects were annihilated in a puff of smoke. Although the damage each time wasn't severe, as the bugs continued to advance and the traps kept on being triggered, the damage accumulated to the point that even the Insect Lich, Bliss, could not ignore it.
The black robe that had fallen to the ground suddenly evaporated soundlessly, turning into black smoke that condensed into countless strange lines that spiraled around in front of everyone. And these lines seemed to be constantly extending into the void.
This was the complete map of the Fire Dragon Labyrinth, and it was something that Blitz had used the lives of thousands of insects to slowly explore.
Grimm's expression did not change as he stared intently. The A.I. Chip in his brain was already scanning and analysing at high speed. From the densely packed and abnormally complex black lines, it quickly searched for the shortest and most convenient route.
Finally, an hour later, one of the thousands of insect armies had successfully made their way out of the Fire Dragon Labyrinth, and they were met with an earth-shattering wave of flames.
It was the Fire Dragon Lord!
"Found it!" Grim's expression relaxed, and he said in a low voice, "Let's go …"
With that, he took the lead and charged into the Fire Dragon Labyrinth.
Draconian Zacha raised his Frost Hammer and smashed a corner of the teleportation spell formation, before following Grim into the labyrinth. The rest of the Scarlet Magi looked at each other and followed without hesitation.
In the blink of an eye, the place was empty once more. There wasn't a single person to be seen!
With the swarm of insects leading the way, the complicated and winding Fire Dragon Labyrinth no longer had any mysteries to them. Grim and the rest followed an underground tunnel that was still burning with flames, walking through a barbeque filled with insect corpses.
Since this was the most convenient path, there were undoubtedly the most magic gears and traps in the passage. Blitz's swarm had to pay a hefty price to pass through here.
However, these losses would be compensated by Grim in the form of rewards from the family after the operation ended. After all, this Insect Lich, Blitz, was one of the Scarlet Magi with the highest chance of becoming a Grade 2 Magus in the near future!
After Grim and the rest easily passed through the Fire Dragon Labyrinth, they bumped into the Grade 2 Fire Dragon that was waiting for them.
If this Fire Dragon Lord could not detect such a huge commotion in the Fire Dragon Labyrinth, it would really be a blind dragon.
This was a tall and mighty adult male Fire Dragon!
As it sat in the spacious Molten Hall, it raised its head high and used its cold, evil gaze to sweep across the people before it. Everyone could feel the fear that came from the depths of their hearts.
Grim took the lead and was the first to face the biting cold draconic aura head-on.
[Beep. A strange spiritual force has been detected. Activate spiritual barrier to isolate it?]
[Warning, warning … If the spiritual force is not isolated, the host will suffer -5 spirit and -3 agility in 7 seconds … Countdown begins: 7 … 6 …]
[Activate spiritual barrier!]
[Command received. Spiritual barrier activated! It is estimated that the spiritual force will be eliminated in 3 seconds …]
Others could sense that Grim, who bore the brunt of the attack, was only stunned for 3 seconds before he quickly shook off the effects of the draconic aura and continued forward.
Behind Grim, Mary, Tigula, Zachary and the others all emitted a faint glow of spiritual barrier. The source of the glow seemed to be a strange protective talisman hanging around their necks or waists.
These were the spiritual talismans that Grim had specially purchased from the Silver Alliance, each worth 8000 magic crystals!
Seeing the strange magic undulations emitted by the group, the Grade 2 Fire Dragon became enraged once more.
Since the enemy had come prepared, it seemed that a fierce battle was inevitable.
Fire Dragon Bammu raised its head and glared at Grim, roaring in a voice that shook the heavens, "Who … Who are you? Why have you barged into Lord Bammu's chambers? Tell me why you're here, or else … "
The Fire Dragon opened its huge mouth, and through its sharp fangs, everyone could clearly see the blazing ball of fire that was quickly forming in its throat.
"Let's fight then … What's with all the nonsense!"
Mary had always acted faster than she thought. She threw off the black robe that was in the way and flapped her wings, taking the lead in charging at the terrifying Fire Dragon.
She was fast, but the Fire Dragon was faster …
An incomparably scorching Dragon Breath rolled down like a wall.
Although Mary was impulsive, she was not stupid.
With her defense and magic resistance, she would only be burnt to a crisp by the Dragon Breath of a Grade 2 Fire Dragon. There was no way she could resist it.
As a result, she flapped her wings continuously, and her delicate body drew four or five red afterimages in the air, finally dodging the terrifying fan-shaped dragon breath.
Grimm stepped forward without hesitation and extended both his hands forward. A similarly surging stream of blazing flames rushed towards the dragon's breath. Both sides collided fiercely.
Dragon Breath VS Flame Flow!
The Red Dragon was a high-grade fire-type magical creature, while Grimm was a famous Fire Wizard.
Both sides seemed to be immune to low-level fire damage, so after the two flames collided, they continuously splashed and dispersed a frighteningly high temperature and frightening fire waves.
For a moment, the middle section of the Molten Hall became an area where the two flames fought and wreaked havoc. Even the surrounding area was quickly turned into a sea of fire.
The two contending forces were of the same rank, and their control of fire was equally matched, so it became an evenly matched confrontation.
However, with Grimm's physique and spirit, it was obvious that he could not fight against such a large number of high-level magical creatures. As a result, Grimm was pushed back by a huge force. His leather boots rubbed against the fiery rocks, leaving behind two eye-catching scorch marks. Green smoke curled up from the friction between his boots and the fiery rocks.
Damn it, this Fire Dragon is so strong!
