The fiery fists whistled through the air.
But halfway through, he was intercepted by a pair of flaming hands that appeared out of thin air.
The Terrible Balrog was already battered beyond recognition, but it still managed to cling onto Arthez's heavy right arm. Three huge fiery men with a height of five to six meters were hugging each other, rolling and fighting crazily in the lava pool.
Taking advantage of the brief moment when Arthez's arms were entangled, Grim crouched on top of the Flame Lord's body, his two flaming hands stabbing at the massive pit in Arthez's chest. As he continued to stab, the broken stone powder in the pit kept falling, and the cracks that looked like spider webs quickly spread to the surroundings.
As if sensing the danger of death, Arthez began to struggle even more violently, his powerful arms punching at the Terrible Balrog. The Balrog's Elemental Body finally couldn't withstand the continuous attacks and collapsed.
That sparkling and resplendent Demon Puppet Crystal Nucleus tumbled into the magma, and with a gurgling sound, disappeared without a trace.
This was the third time an enemy had destroyed the Terrible Balrog's body during its summoning!
As Grim's enemies grew stronger, even the Tier 2 Terrible Balrog struggled to hold out until the Demon Puppet Core ran out of energy. Moreover, summoning Tier 2 Demon Puppets consumed a lot of Concentration, making it difficult for Grim to summon a large group of Demon Puppets to attack his enemies.
After the Terrible Balrog retreated, only Grim and Arthez remained in the lava pool.
Flame Lord Arthez's heavy Lava Fists slammed into Grimm's body. Grimm's Flame Shield and Lava Shield did not even last for a second before they exploded into pieces.
Arthez's heavy fists made Grim's head spin, and his vision was blurred by the explosion. His Balrog's body crumbled, and he could no longer stabilize his body. Grimm, who had already forgotten himself, ignored the Lava Fists that rained down on him and continued to stab at Artes' chest with all his might.
The cracks were growing larger and larger …
With Arthez's Strength, he could easily send Grim flying with a single punch. However, in order to prevent such a situation from happening, Grimm turned his left hand into a flaming whip and wrapped it around his opponent's waist. Just like that, even though his body was being battered by the Lava Fists and was on the verge of collapse, his right hand was still desperately attacking Arthez's chest.
Both sides rolled around in the lava pool, punching and stabbing each other. The earth-shaking battle almost razed this place to the ground.
Meanwhile, the Tier 2 Lava Giant, Huo Lie, had charged into the Flame Hall and was attacking the Flame Cage with all his might. As expected of a Type 2 monster, its strength far surpassed that of its four Type 1 brethren, and the destructive power it brought was incomparable to the combined might of the four brethren.
The Flame Cage was being destroyed at a speed visible to the naked eye.
However, at this moment when everyone's fighting spirit soared, a crisp crack suddenly came from the huge depression in the chest of Artes, the Lord of the Flames, which was caused by the huge lava fireball.
Its half-meter-thick magma shell was finally penetrated by Grim!
The Flaming Hand pierced into Artes's chest and grabbed hold of the Flame Core that was as big as a human head. As the violent and destructive power of the Flame Energy surged into Artes's body, a series of Flame Explosions erupted from Artes's body. Grimm's Flame Energy seized the opportunity and successfully imprisoned Artes's soul.
There was a soft pop.
Grimm pulled out his right hand, and Artes's Flame Core turned from scarlet to dark red in his palm, before condensing into a grey Stone Core.
The surroundings suddenly became deathly silent.
That was why the Lava Giant stopped attacking the Flame Cage and stared at the Stone Heart in Grimm's hand with a horrified expression. He had almost lost the will to think and fight.
The Lord was dead …
All the Lava Giants stared at the scene in front of them in a daze, this short sentence lingering in their minds. Finally, Huo Lie came back to his senses. His eyes that had calmed down once again became bloodshot. He pointed at Grimm and roared, "Kill him!"
The other Lava Giants seemed to wake up from a dream and roared in unison, "Kill him … Avenge the Lord!"
In the next moment, the Flame Cage collapsed under the Lava Giants' stone fists, revealing the devastated Fire Pool Battlefield.
Grimm quickly put away the Stoneheart with Artest's soul sealed inside and quickly retreated from the second transformation. When he turned from a five-meter-tall Balrog back to a two-meter-tall human wizard, the surrounding Lava Giants had already rushed towards him.
Grimm was now an arrow at the end of its flight.
Although the battle with Flame Lord Artes was short, it was extremely intense. He had almost used up all the Flame Energy in his body. At this moment, there were at least twenty Lava Giants surrounding him. Among them, there was even the guard captain Huo Lie whose strength was not inferior to his in the slightest.
Since he had completed his mission, there was no point in continuing to fight.
Grimm dived into the bottom of the pool of fire without hesitation and picked up the Magic Puppet Crystal Core. He then went to the crack that led to the underground and dove in like a fish.
Behind him, the enraged roars of the Fire Giant could be heard.
Grimm didn't care about it at all. While resisting the lava, he quickly moved away.
A quarter of an hour later, Grim finally crawled out of a crack in the ground with difficulty. He was already three miles away from the Fiery Dust Canyon, and he could only vaguely see the dust and flames at the entrance of the canyon.
'Mission completed … I've finally completed my mission!'
With a sudden sense of relaxation, Grim's eyes were a little moist. Throughout this journey, he had never doubted his own abilities, nor had he doubted his luck. It seemed that fate was still on his side. Otherwise, entering a high-grade plane to assassinate a powerful Elemental Lord whose strength was on par with his own would have been a joke.
Just as Grimm was feeling sorrowful and excited about his magnificent feat, a strange voice sounded beside him.
"You human Magi do have some tricks up your sleeves! To think that you could kill a powerful Lord with such a weak body. Hehe, looks like I've underestimated you … "
Grimm was startled by the sudden sound. When he turned around, he discovered that the Flaming Tiger was lazily crawling behind him, staring at him with a pair of bright eyes.
"Lord … Lord Sindar, weren't you supposed to be waiting for me near the waymark of the Wizard's Pagoda?"
"Hehe, I didn't have anything to do anyway, so I followed you to see how you killed Artes. Not bad, not bad, the plan was perfect, and you fought hard enough … Seems interesting! "
That would be interesting …
Grimm could not help but tear up.
It was not just interesting, it was very interesting. In the battle just now, if his luck and strength had been slightly worse, he might have ended up dying in another world. But in the eyes of Lord Sindar, this kind of life and death battle was only a little interesting …
The level 3 Flame Tiger's gaze did not change, as if it was not affected by Grimm's self-mockery.
"My mission here is over! In that case, I welcome Sir Sindar to visit my private Wizard's Pagoda for the rest of the journey … "Shaking his head to get rid of those boring thoughts, Grimm forced a smile and respectfully invited the Flame Tiger out of courtesy.
"Then, let's go!" Towards this topic, Flame Tiger Sindar was very interested. He stood up and left.
Grimm had no choice but to follow them.
…
Lance Dimension, Metal Fortress.
An irritable giant dragon was pacing back and forth in the metal hall.
Finally, unable to hold back his irritation, Armes stopped his meaningless' stroll 'and roared angrily at the empty hall, "It's been eleven days … I've been here for eleven days, why hasn't your human master appeared yet? No, I have to see him immediately … immediately … immediately … "
A moment later, Gaz Ruvi's strange voice rang out in the metal hall.
"Lord Armes, forgive me for not being able to help you in this matter. As far as I know, Lord Grimm is currently traveling in another world, and it will be difficult for him to return in a short time. Even if I have a way to pass on your message, he will not give up on his mission and return for such a small matter. So … "
"Small matter … small matter …" Armes seemed to be completely infuriated by the word, and his voice immediately rose an octave, "My woman is about to be stolen by someone else, and you still dare to say that it's a small matter? Do you believe me when I say that I can turn this place into a sea of fire with my dragon flames?"
At the end of his sentence, Armes was basically making a blatant threat.
"There's no other way, Lord Armes. From your description, I can tell that this matter involves a terrifying level 4 giant dragon. This kind of person has already exceeded the level of matters that I can handle. So no matter how anxious you are, you have to wait for Lord Grimm to return before making a decision! "
After roaring for a while, Armes, who had vented some of his emotions, once again began to 'stroll' around the metal hall …
Wait, wait, wait … What else could he do other than wait?
Whenever he thought about his beautiful and alluring dragon lady lying in the arms of another giant dragon, Armes felt as if his heart was being boiled in oil, and he could not sit still.
