While the mortal heroes were busy dealing with the Son of Fire, Ragnaros hid. He completely hid his huge body in the lava lake in the middle of the platform.
Not only that, but every four seconds, a dozen scorching lava arrows would shoot out from the boiling lava lake.
Lager, who seemed to be a product of surging lava, actually had a different kind of scheme. He aimed every lava arrow at the heroes and demigods on the platform.
Kalia could not dodge in time, and a lava arrow blasted into her body. If she had not swung the [Varanelle Ancient King's Hammer] in her hand at the last moment, and the head of the hammer floating above the handle suddenly bloomed with a soft golden light, blocking the blow with a huge shield, Kalia might have been disfigured.
This was only a theoretical possibility. Kaliya tilted her head and saw that Duque was looking at her. Duque was probably testing her skills and reaction speed.
Kaliya smiled sweetly at Duque. This was a response to his concern.
After so many battles, the clumsy princess was now the main priest of the Alliance's hero group. Unless the enemy was too far apart, normal attacks really couldn't threaten her.
No one thought that this scene would be seen by Lager, who was hiding under the lava.
The eyes of fire elemental creatures were always just decorations. They didn't really have eyes. What they used to 'see' the world was actually sensing the elements of the world around them. In their perception, the world was roughly and simply divided into four elements: earth, water, fire, and wind.
The surrounding fire elementals could 'see' the situation, which meant that Lager himself had seen it.
Seeing that his plan to summon the Son of Fire into [Savras] had been ruined, Lager stopped hiding and poked his upper body out of the lava lake.
"Watch out! The lava lake that the Fire Demon King is hiding in is another space! "Duque finally realized. He didn't expect the seemingly reckless and irascible Lager to have such a cunning side.
The Sapphiron Fortress was originally an independent space within the independent space of the Land of Fire. Who knew that there was another freaking space in the space? This kind of overlapping relationship really made one's scalp go numb.
"So what if I know!? In the Land of Fire, I'm absolutely invincible — "Lager roared proudly.
All of a sudden, the Fire Demon King did something that surprised Duque.
This move definitely did not exist in Duque's memories.
Unlike in the original history, Ragnaros's momentum at the moment was that he wanted to kill all the invaders.
First, he gave it a big slap. His left hand suddenly swept from left to right. Not only did his golden left palm emit a high temperature, but it also sent Urso flying more than ten meters away. At the same time, it also created a [Lava Wave] that was at least ten meters tall and twenty meters wide.
No matter how well-equipped they were and how many Fire Resistance Potions they had prepared beforehand, no mortal hero would be willing to bathe in the suffocating, invisible lava. That kind of deadly heat in the darkness would cause nightmares after just one.
The veteran team members who had experienced the battle of the Molten Core all retreated in a hurry, just like William. He had already rushed to the side of the lava lake and used the Holy Sword Wind created by the Dual Sword Artifact to slash at Lager's waist. Lager swung it horizontally, and he had no choice but to jump out of the attack range of the lava wave.
Unexpectedly, this was a feint.
Lager didn't intend to use this move to hurt anyone. All the previous actions were just to cover for the Fire Demon Hammer that he had pulled behind him and raised high.
Cenarius, who was at the outermost part of the platform, saw everything clearly. He immediately exclaimed, "Be careful —"
It wasn't that they didn't want to be careful. A Fire Giant whose upper body was ten stories tall was extremely fast and terrifying. Anyone who had faced it before would know how terrifying it was.
If it was just a simple physical attack, it would be terrifying enough.
Not to mention, before this attack, Ragnaros had forcefully used his greater control of the elements to push away all the other elements on the platform.
When the fire element was more than 99% dominant in a certain space, using other elemental magic would become a joke. If one wasn't a demigod, they probably wouldn't even be able to activate a life-saving skill like [Ice Barrier].
When Lager did this, Duque already felt that something was wrong. He also had a share of control in the Fire Elemental Realm. Unfortunately, after the Land of Fire was connected to Azeroth and was replenished with new fire elements, his share was indirectly diluted.
Even if he killed a few leaders and secretly snatched the elements in the Land of Fire, Duque's control of the fire elements in Lager's lair would not exceed 20%.
Duque didn't know who Lager was going to attack. As a demigod of the Magic Net who made a living by controlling elements, Duque's first priority was to seize control of the elements nearby.
He regained control in half a breath, and it even reached about 40%. However, Lager's all-out attack had already arrived.
At this moment, Duque finally realized that Lager's target was Kalia.
In a team battle, get rid of the opponent's healer first.
This was common sense, and there was nothing wrong with it.
Duque also knew that if he were in Lager's shoes, he would do the same.
However, when Lager's [Savras] Balrog smashed towards Kalia, Duque was still furious.
"Lager! F * ck you — "
Time seemed to have stopped.
At this moment, there were actually many people who ran over to save the situation.
Ushok sprinted over, his bear-like body already flying into the air with his limbs off the ground.
On the other side, William brazenly activated the Warrior Profession Skill [Assist]. His body turned into a stream of light and rushed towards Kaliya. As long as he could catch up, he would block this attack for Kaliya even if he had to cross his swords to block it.
However, everyone knew that both of them were half a beat too slow.
Based on the attack speed and trajectory, the Balrog Hammer would hit Kalia before they could.
How was a human priest going to block this huge hammer that weighed more than a hundred tons and contained a huge amount of fire elements?
The answer was definitely that she couldn't!
Just when everyone thought that Kalia's body would explode and she would die from this blow, Duque made his move.
Pharaoh was never known for his defense.
Even though Duque was a demigod, he didn't have the body to block Lager's full-powered physical attack.
Duque had his own way of dealing with Duque.
Unknowingly, his divine artifact sword had merged with his staff once again.
A strange divine artifact spear turned into a gorgeous arc of light and pierced the bottom of Lager's Balrog Hammer.
