Chapter 199: Void Getting Beat Up
Boom!
The tree Grey and his friends used in going underground was exploded into smithereens as the huge body of the dragon came through it.
Roar!
An earth-shattering roar came out of its mouth spreading in all directions as the hole that it came out from was sealed in ice.
The dragon was an Ice Dragon. Unlike humans, there’s a distinct difference between an Ice Dragon and a Water Dragon. An Ice Dragon can only use the ice element, likewise, a Water Dragon can only use the water element. Humans are more fortunate in this aspect since a Water Elementalist is ent.i.tled to using both.
But there are naturally some dragons that are blessed with both ice and water elements, they’re referred to as Dual Elemental dragons amongst the dragons’ community.
The blue dragon spread its over four meters long bat-like wings and started flapping, before long, it took to the sky.
______
Six kilometers away from where Grey and the dragon were.
“Did you hear that?” Reynolds asked and looked behind them.
“Yes, it should be from the dragon.” Alice nodded.
“Hmm, should we head back?” Reynolds asked a little worried for their friend.
“No, going back might do us more harm than good, also, Grey probably has a plan, and if we were to come into the picture, it will most likely disrupt it, not only putting us in danger but him as well.” Klaus said after contemplating for a while.
“Don’t worry, he’ll be fine.” Alice a.s.sured Reynolds, a little uncertain though.
They’ve always been confident in their friend’s ability to survive, but not a hundred percent confident in this case. After all, what he was going against was a legendary dragon, even their Head Instructors wouldn’t say they were confident in going against it.
“Hmm.” Reynolds nodded with a sad face, “But we’re still going to beat him up, right?”
“Of course.” Klaus smiled evilly.
Of everyone in the group, except for Alice, Grey was the one who rarely gets beaten, since an opportunity has presented itself, he would definitely take it.
‘Hehe, with Alice’s help, I’ll finally beat him up!’ Klaus laughed internally.
“We should continue running, since Grey’s going to take a detour, it would be a shame not to see his scared expression when he’s running.” Alice said with a light smile.
Klaus and Reynolds nodded before they once again started running quickly. Given their current speed, they shouldn’t have a problem with getting to where the array was located within four hours. If they were walking, it would take no less than two days before they would get to their destination, but it’s a totally different matter once they decided to run there.
______
On Grey’s side.
‘c.r.a.p! It’s already so close.’ Grey felt dismayed when he sensed the fast-approaching dragon.
He had estimated it would take at least four or five minutes before the dragon caught up, yet, it hadn’t even been up to two minutes, and the dragon was already at his heels.
‘It’s flying, it would naturally be faster than when running.’ Void said as he gazed at the silhouette that was getting larger by the second.
‘Get ready to fight, you’re the cause of all this, so you’ll be the one who has to use up most of your energy.’ Grey said hastily while also preparing himself.
He didn’t want to carelessly use the Fusion State this quickly since he would have to exit it mid-battle, so, Void would have to do most of the work before, and after he uses the Fusion State.
‘Relax, I got this.’ Void said confidently.
One minute later.
‘I don’t got this, I repeat, I don’t got this.’ Void yelled as the dragon sent him flying towards the ground.
Unlike the quasi dragon, a real dragon didn’t have any problems with matching up to his speed, also, given the real strength of the dragon, it had more experience than Void who wasn’t even six months old.
Hearing Void’s words, Grey almost wanted to snicker, but their current situation didn’t allow him to.
‘Done!’ Grey said excitedly as he completed the third inscription.
Compared to the time he fought against Quinn and his group, now, he could use three inscriptions without suffering much of a side effect, he could even use it for a prolonged time without tiring out.
Boom!
He attacked with all three inscriptions instantly, but the dragon casually formed an ice sphere around itself that was able to easily block the attacks.
The only way the attacks from the inscriptions could affect it slightly is if Grey were to use the Fusion State, since his attack power would increase then. But it was still too early for him to use it, it hadn’t even been up to a minute yet they were already forced into such a perilous situation.
‘Stop playing dead and attack, you’re the cause of all this in the first place.’ Grey said while stomping his feet on the ground.
The moment his feet touched the ground, the spot where Void landed on shot up quickly, sending Void flying straight at the dragon.
Roar!
The dragon roared before spitting out a stream of ice at Grey who was running.
‘s.h.i.+t! Too strong.’ Grey complained before he turned around and threw both hands in front of him.
A blue fire wall rose up from the ground to the sky, in an attempt to block the stream of ice coming his way.
At first, before the ice got close to the fire wall, it would melt due to the intensity of the heat, but after the dragon noticed this, the stream of ice it released suddenly turned bigger and colder.
Grey soon saw his fire dwindling by the second.
‘What the h.e.l.l are you doing Void? Distract it!’ He yelled at Void.
‘It’s not as easy as you think.’ Void said feeling a little wronged.
He was trying hard, but the dragon was just too strong. It’s amazing how it had been able to keep its head in the same position while defending against attacks that were coming from behind it.
Void almost regretted his decision to take the crystal, well, almost. Since it’s s.h.i.+ny, for him, it was worth it.
The dragon spat out the stream of ice for almost one minute before it stopped, the second it stopped, it immediately focused its attention on Void.
‘s.h.i.+t! I’m f.u.c.ked!’ Void complained when he noticed this.
Swoos.h.!.+ Bam! Boom!
Multiple ice crystals appeared mid-air that shot at Void who was disappearing and appearing in different locations and sending out attacks at the dragon.
He managed to escape some of the crystals, blocked some, but he was unfortunately struck one time, and since the crystals were bigger than he was, it sent him cras.h.i.+ng towards the ground, along with it of course.
‘d.a.m.n it, if I let this smash him as well, he might get seriously injured. I still want him to be beaten up.’ Grey immediately shot to the spot where Void would crash into.
He made sure to attack the dragon with his inscriptions to distract it for some time.
Boom!
The ice crystal was quickly destroyed by Grey, and he instantly got hold of Void, stopping him from slamming into the ground.
This was the first time Grey was seeing Void being beaten, and he couldn’t lie, he was enjoying it. If not for the fact that he might be in danger as well, he would have been cheering on the dragon from the sidelines.
