A resonant dragon roar resounded through the sky!
The Type 3 Thunder Dragon, Armes, flapped its wings and soared into the sky, looking down at the silhouettes streaking through the forest below.
Its amber-like, dark green eyes stared at the fleeing silhouette at the end of its line of sight.
After the long and cruel battle in the volcano, Natagu had exhausted his bloodline power. He was forced to withdraw from his snake form and return to his human form. This unavoidably lowered part of his physique.
In this way, the pain and injuries that he could endure in his snake form became unbearable after he transformed into his human form!
Natagu flew across the sky while bleeding profusely.
His eyes, ears, mouth, and nose kept spurting purplish-black blood. His face was twisted and hideous. He looked miserable. However, he had no time to care about his image. All his attention was focused on escaping from the enemy behind him.
His origin was severely damaged, and the Legendary Fire Wizard chasing after him was not much better off.
However, the fire wizard had a Rank 3 dragon as a means of transportation, so he had the upper hand in this battle. Although he knew he wouldn't be able to escape a Tier 3 Dragon's pursuit, his body was on the brink of collapse, and he didn't have much Concentration left. He couldn't muster the courage to turn around and fight his enemy.
Damn it, this was just a cross-world hunting mission that he had accepted! Although he would suffer heavy losses if he failed the mission, it was still better than losing his life here.
He was badly injured, and the fire wizard was also badly injured.
Natagu had nothing else to ask for. He only hoped that the Fire Wizard would stop chasing him and go back to heal his wounds before he could. With this simple thought in mind, Natagu frantically swallowed all kinds of magic potions and fled for his life.
Unfortunately, as a bloodline wizard who had mastered the Giant Snake Transformation, agility was not Natagu's forte!
As such, just as he was beginning to despair, the Type 3 Thunder Dragon's beautiful figure finally caught up to him and arrived above him.
Following a drawn-out dragon roar, Thunder Dragon Armes lowered his head and breathed out a series of short dragon breaths towards Natagu, forcing him to move in an S-shaped pattern above the forest.
With each dragon breath, Natagu had to make a sharp turn, brushing against the edge of the violent thunderbolts and abruptly changing his direction. The blue electric net fell into the forest below and turned into a raging lightning storm, electrocuting everything within its range into fine powder.
Only those thousand-year-old ancient trees that had grown abnormally thick and strong could withstand this kind of violent lightning, barely standing on the spot without collapsing. However, their branches, leaves, and skins had all disappeared, leaving only their withered, charred trunks burning quietly in the fire caused by the lightning.
If Natagu was at his peak, he would even dare to transform into a Black Mamba Snake and fight the Thunder Dragon head-on. But now, his body was broken, his mental power was almost exhausted, and his bloodline power was almost depleted.
Without the giant snake transformation, he really did not have the confidence to continue to fight with this arrogant dragon. Therefore, even if he was being "teased" by the dragon breaths, Natagu still did not want to turn around and fight with his life on the line.
He could not fight anymore!
Unfortunately, he wanted to avoid the fight, but his opponent did not agree.
Since Grimm had taken the "Primary Life Serum" and "Spirit Recovery Potion," his injuries were actually several times worse than the snake wizard Natagu. Even with these two "Holy Recovery Potions," his injuries could only prevent them from worsening. It was extremely difficult for him to recover.
During the three hours of hard fighting, he was basically fighting against the snake wizard while enduring the attacks of the two wizards. Although the special environment of the volcano had weakened the power of the witchcraft spells of the old poisonous woman and the psionic warlock, they still caused a lot of damage to Grimm's body after such a long time.
If it was not for his Balrog Body, which was tough enough and had outstanding defense and magic resistance, he would have already been beaten into pieces by the enemy.
The more injuries he suffered, the more furious Grimm became.
In the past, he might have given up chasing the enemy just to heal his injuries. But today, he had made up his mind to make these enemies that had been pestering him for so many years pay with their lives!
Katy was still trapped underground. She had no chance of winning against the elemental magic machine.
As for the psionic warlock, Flaming Tiger was chasing after her. As long as Sindar did not go easy on her, it was very likely that he could capture her.
As for the old poisonous woman, Remy, the Plague Poison Spirit, was waiting for her in the direction she was heading. She would probably suffer a lot. However, Grimm did not know how powerful Remy had become after his advancement, so he could not say for sure whether he could kill the old poisonous woman or not.
However, Grim was certain that Natagu, the Giant Snake Wizard in front of him, was dead for sure!
When Grimm, who was sitting on the back of the thunder dragon, joined the attack, the snake wizard Natagu finally could not hold on any longer. Unable to dodge in time, he was engulfed by a violent fireball that was flying towards him. When he screamed and escaped from the fireball, half of his body was already charred black.
"Grimm, don't kill me …" Natagu did not change his fierce nature even in the face of death. He threatened in a hoarse voice, "Are you sure you can survive my last counterattack if you force me into a corner?"
What answered him were two violent fireballs that flew towards him at high speed.
Natagu had used up his bloodline power, so he could no longer transform into the Black Mamba Snake. He could only hurriedly put up an elemental barrier to resist the violent shockwave caused by the explosion of the fireballs.
Waves of fire swept through the surroundings, burning all the green plants and tall trees into charred charcoal. Natagu staggered backward, no longer as arrogant as he was before.
Natagu raised his right hand and shouted, "Hui Li Mocong … Bite your fangs!"
On the pinky of his right hand, a Snake Eye Ring suddenly burst out with a dazzling light. The light penetrated the dense flames and shot towards Grimm on the dragon's back. At the same time, Natagu opened his mouth and spat out an egg-sized venom ball, silently flying towards Grimm and the thunder dragon.
After spitting out such a venom ball, Natagu's energy suddenly dropped by half. He did not even have time to observe the result of the attack. He turned around and stumbled into the forest.
Even though his physical and mental strength had fallen below the warning line, with the powerful physique of a rank 3 bloodline wizard, Natagu's running speed was not inferior to that of a jungle cheetah, which was known for its agility.
While frantically running through the forest, Natagu could not help but look back. For a moment, he was distracted and tripped by a vine, crashing into an old tree. He forced himself to stand up with the help of the tree trunk and continued to run.
No one noticed that the moment he stood up with the help of the tree trunk, the back half of his left little finger was suddenly cut off, turning into an arrow that silently pierced into the trunk of the old tree.
Natagu continued to stumble into the forest as if he did not feel anything.
In an open space in the forest, a large burst of flames suddenly appeared. Grimm coughed violently as he walked out, blocking Natagu's way.
After a short but fierce exchange of fire, Natagu, who had been forced into a corner, screamed and released a terrifying poison ring. His eyes were bloodshot. In order to maximize the lethality of the Toxic Ring, Natagu did not hesitate to explode all of his blood essence to increase the power of the ring.
Therefore, as a pale green halo spread through the forest, everything within a radius of one mile, whether it was plants or animals, turned into a green liquid that emitted a faint fluorescent radiation the moment it came into contact with the halo.
Even though Grimm had the Burning Domain to protect himself, the poisonous aura still managed to invade the space around him, turning the dark red flames into a wretched green.
Grimm let out a muffled groan. With the help of Soden's Divine Ring, he quickly transformed the power of the flames into divine energy and covered his body in layers. With the 'purification power' of the holy light, he was able to resist the infection of the poison.
After blocking this wave of attack, Grimm stood up straight and looked around. He could not help but feel a little shocked.
Natagu had completely disappeared. Even his body, soul, and equipment had melted into the terrifying Toxic Ring. All the plants within a radius of one mile around him, whether they were ancient trees that were as tall as giant umbrellas, or vines, brambles, or shrubs that covered the forest, had all been turned into a pool of green poison, turning the place where he stood into a terrifying poisonous place where all life was extinguished.
Natagu self-destructed?
He was really ruthless!
Grimm, who was wrapped in layers of milky white holy light, could not help but sigh as he looked around.
However, just as he was feeling emotional over the death of a rank 3 Magus, the A.I. Chip's statistics caught his attention.
[... Soul integrity 63% …]
Hmm, what's going on?
Based on Natagu's last attack, the A.I. Chip estimated that Natagu's soul integrity was only 63% of the previous battle. This … There was something fishy about this!
If not for the A.I. Chip's statistics, Grimm would have been so shocked by Natagu's bravery that he would have overlooked some suspicious points. With Natagu's personality and style, was he a brave warrior who would die together with the enemy?
According to Grimm's observations of him over the years, not only was he not a brave warrior, he was also extremely cunning and cunning. If he really had to die, Grimm believed that Natagu would rather kneel and beg for mercy than commit suicide.
From this point of view, Natagu's self-destruction might have been to cover up the fact that his soul was not complete!
Grimm glanced at the forest that Natagu had come from, and his eyes could not help but emit a cold glint.
Hmph, 37% of his soul combined with some secret techniques is enough for him to resurrect!
