Chapter 245: Tear It Down!
Chapter 245: Tear It Down!
"Gold... Golden Shield!"
Lastos' left hand once again summoned a shield, successfully blocking the feathered flying knife.
However, it was clear that the speed of the shield's manifestation was significantly slower than before.
"Black Sword!"
After confirming he had defended against the attack, Lastos swung his right hand again, splitting a stone beetle in half.
By the time he withdrew the shield, Rhod was already gone.
"Dark rat, have you retreated underground again?"
Lastos planned to manifest a giant pangolin to dig Rhod out.
But a dark shadow on the ground caught his attention. He suddenly looked up to see the ugly creature jumping into the air!
By the time he recognized the figure, dark purple poison liquid had already sprayed down on him.
"Damn!" Last Os could only hurriedly raise his shield.
The bone-eroding pain was Distracting his attention, making it impossible for him to manifest effectively in an instant!
Sizzle~~
"Aaaaaah..." Last Os screamed in agony, his face twisted in pain. He placed his right hand on the ground, "Pain... spurs my imagination, Thorn Hell!"
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh...
Steel spikes erupted from the ground, each over a meter tall, spreading out in a two-kilometer radius centered on Last Os.
As long as Rhod landed, he would be pierced like a sieve.
But...
Rhod's figure transformed, his arms becoming wings, halting his descent.
"Tch..." Last Os recalled that this person could fly just like him, "In that case, become Kuliba's food!"
Rhod circled in the air, firing feathered flying knives at Last Os.
Meanwhile, Last Os' manifestation arc completed, and a steel bird resembling a pterodactyl appeared beside him.
Kuliba flapped its wings, sweeping away the feathered flying knives. Once its owner jumped onto its back, the giant bird took to the sky.
"Scree~" The giant bird let out an unpleasant screech, opening its mouth filled with sharp teeth and lunging at Rhod.
Unfortunately, without the enhancement of the Ember Crown, the feathered flying knives could only pierce through a layer of iron, making it difficult to injure Kuliba.
Rhod turned to flee, but found his flying speed couldn't match the other's.
"Fall from the sky, fairy!"
Kuliba flapped its wings, its mouth about to bite Rhod.
Rhod, however, suddenly changed direction, turning at a very exaggerated angle and gliding under the giant bird, dodging the attack with a beautiful arc.
This was a trick he learned while playing hide-and-seek with Habi. The small Habi often used this move to evade the larger Rhod.
The two figures, one large and one small, chased each other in the air.
The previously summoned sharp-beaked bird came to assist in the attack but was accidentally struck by Kuliba's steel claws and disappeared.
Rhod maneuvered flexibly, seeking an opportunity to attack Last Os on the bird's back with the feathered flying knives.
Last Os manifested a bird gun, occasionally shooting at Rhod.
During the chase, Rhod noticed that Elfman was already in battle, facing at least a hundred enemies.
He needed to quickly join forces with Elfman.
But if he tried to fly over, he couldn't shake off this guy... should he take him down completely here?
Bang!
"Ugh..." A bullet pierced Rhod's wing, a few feathers stained with blood falling from the sky.
Rhod's flying speed and agility sharply declined.
The giant bird opened its mouth, and with a clang, it closed, biting Rhod in its jaws.
"Flying fairy, meet your end in Kuliba's mouth, spilling blood and feathers, what a tragic and beautiful scene!"
Rhod thought this guy definitely hadn't seen "Journey to the West."
"Receive · Crimson Mark Tree Monster!" Rhod's body swelled, his entire form enveloped by tree vines, transforming into a tree-like being with a bright red light ball glowing on his chest.
The light of the Ember Crown reappeared around Rhod, the bleeding from the wounds on his arm and shoulder stopping at an unusual speed.
Compared to Rhod's current size, Kuliba's mouth seemed somewhat narrow.
The giant bird struggled to make a swallowing motion, and in Lastos' imagination, Kuliba's stomach contained a strong acid capable of dissolving a person.
Rhod quickly estimated the position and, with a wave of his right hand, a claw with red flames easily cut through Kuliba's esophagus from the inside, piercing towards Lastos on the bird's back.
"What... Black Sword!"
The giant bird's form dissipated, and the two clashed mid-air, each falling in different directions.
Rhod's palm was pierced, bleeding, and Lastos' arm now had several bleeding wounds.
Although it was an aerial battle, it had mostly been a close-range struggle, so they hadn't flown far from the previous battlefield.
The ground was still covered with a dense array of steel spikes.
Rhod had no choice but to use the tree monster's innate wood magic to make the ground rapidly grow a large number of tree vines, intertwining with the steel spikes and creating a platform for him to land on.
However, the moment he landed, Rhod realized something was wrong.
Lastos had not landed with him but instead sprouted small white wings on his feet, spreading his arms in the air and assuming a magical casting stance.
"Come forth, Tower of Dingir! Drown the foolish fairy in sorrow and return them to dust!"
Rhod suddenly found himself unable to move.
Without his notice, his body had been fixed within a stone wall, which was now rising with him.
Even in the tree monster form, he couldn't break free!
Rhod immediately canceled the transformation, but he couldn't escape by shrinking his body.
He then transformed into the ancient stone beetle, but immediately realized he couldn't use earth magic to escape the wall in this form.
The wall continued to rise, forming a grand tower, and Lastos, smirking, shouted at him:
"Give up! This is an unbeatable magic; no one has ever broken it!"
It's over!
Rhod felt a bit panicked. Although he didn't know the effect of this magic, he had sensed the massive burst of magic power from Lastos. If this spell succeeded, he might die.
But a tower?
Rhod still had enough magic power left. If he could summon the Canyon Vanguard, there was still a chance to break this spell!
The problem was, he couldn't move!
His hands were fixed in the wall.
Lastos had clearly targeted his summoning magic, which was clearly a possession-type ability.
Without touching the pendant, he couldn't cast the summon, unless...
"Have a little more confidence in yourself; you are strong. Magic comes from the heart. If you don't believe in yourself, the magic will weaken."
The kind president's voice echoed in his ear. Rhod strained to lift his neck, feeling the pendant touch his skin.
"I can do it, I can do it. I've practiced this, I can definitely do it this time!"
"Canyon Vanguard!"
"Answer the call! Canyon Vanguard!"
Buzz~~
All the magic power converged at the point where the pendant touched his skin, being consumed in an instant. The pendant emitted a brilliant light.
A purple glow gathered at the base of the tower, and a massive purple figure leaped out from the ground!
"Even with a possession-type ability, you can summon directly..." Lastos extended his right hand, "It's too late, disappear!"
Rhod shouted, "Canyon Vanguard, tear it down!!!"
Boom!
The Canyon Vanguard seemed to transform into a purple streak of light, crashing into the tower.
Cracks spread from the impact point, covering the entire tower and reaching Rhod's trapped position!
