Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 1875: The Last Stage

Chapter 1875: The Last Stage

Not only did the ma.s.sive, hundred-meter-tall salamander received all the missiles, but it screamed in agony and anger after that, splas.h.i.+ng into the sea of lava below as he glared furiously at the other incoming s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps.

"RAAAARRRR!"

With a furious roar, it opened its jaws, firing a ma.s.sive lava breath against the pa.s.sing s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps, their s.h.i.+elds rapidly breaking as their s.p.a.ces.h.i.+ps took more and more damage! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!

Although this wasn't the worst! Drake smiled, leaving behind giant chunks of ice into the lava, provoking the temperatures to cool down and the inhabitants to grow furious.

SPLAs.h.!.+

The lava sea shook, as more and more of these monsters emerged. Not only the giant salamanders, but huge serpents, ma.s.sive legged catfishes, and even snail-like creatures.

They were all utterly gigantic, kaiju-sized monsters. The moment they stepped out of the lava sea, they attacked the three s.h.i.+ps instantly.

They had to do their best not to be crushed, maneuvering around the treacherous bites, magma breaths, and fireb.a.l.l.s in an endless h.e.l.lish volcanic landscape!

Meanwhile, Drake continued rus.h.i.+ng forward.

It was quite refres.h.i.+ng that he could finally have fun after the first two stages being a bit too much on the difficulty and annoyance scale.

Especially the first stage with the Esper G.o.d!

That was simply way too much...

"Dammit! Get away from me!"

"Ugh, this is too hard to evade!"

"Rush into the skies! The skies!"

The Ice Queen and Lightning Mac rushed into the skies as high as possible, until the kaiju- sized aliens couldn't reach them.

However, as Spike John followed them, a ma.s.sive iceberg slammed his s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p from afar. "Wha...?!"

CRAAAs.h.!.+

His s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p fell from the skies, as he glanced at the Ice Queen in fury.

"YOUUUU! WE HAD AN ALLIANCE!"

"It wasn't me!"

"It wasn't?!"

Spike John glared at the distance, it was Drake's s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p the one that dropped that iceberg

into his own s.h.i.+p, forcing him to fall right into the maws of a salamander.

"This can't be happening! I won before, and I will win now...! I will...!"

He released countless bombs from his s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, all of them into the maws of the salamander, making its stomach explode and dropping dead instantly!

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

SPLAs.h.!.+

Yet, more beasts emerged, finally surrounding Spike John.

"Wait, no, no, no, noo!"

He screamed, looking up hoping for the other two to save him.

But they didn't.

In that moment, Spike John realized how he had no friends at all.

And how much he had pushed everyone away, in exchange for pleasure.

Now, as the beasts tore apart his s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p, and as he fell into the mouth of one of them.

He realized that his life had been utter s.h.i.+t.

"f.u.c.k you all..."

Perhaps as a last farewell, the bombs wrapped around his armor were activated.

BOOOM!

And he died with the giant monster that ate him.

The audience was shocked!

"I-I can't believe this!"

"Spike John died..."

Prociout and Carpaccio glanced at the scene in silence, but then.

"AND DRAKE'S FIRST PLACE!"

"WOOOOHHHH!"

The people celebrated, not caring at all about the previous winner of the race anyways.

The Ice Queen and Lightning Mac glared down, seeing how the mighty have fallen.

"Haha..." the Ice Queen laughed. "That'll be you next, Lightning Mac."

"In your dreams, old hag! Eat lightning!" Lightning mac didn't care anymore.

The two rushed against one another, attacking each other.

They already gave up the first place, Drake was simply too ahead now.

However, they wanted the second place no matter what, as it offered half the prize of the first

prize.

Drake glanced at the quest notification again...

Ding!

"So that counted as my kill, that's a relief."

However, he still couldn't let Ice Queen and Lightning Mac kill each other, that might not

make it count as a "defeat"!

"Gabriel, send the robots."

"Understood."

Using the ability of Gabriel, which he unlocked after receiving enhancements, dozens of robots materialized, holy sentinels that are summoned when Gabriel's takes damage.

They were gigantic and empowered by Benladra and Kate's Aura, rus.h.i.+ng to defeat the last

partic.i.p.ants.

At the same time, Drake's s.p.a.ces.h.i.+p pa.s.sed the second Warp Gate already.

FLUOs.h.!.+

"Last stage, finally."

And then, everyone froze.

The view was simply too phenomenal.

They were in literal outer s.p.a.ce.

Surrounded by millions of small asteroids floating everywhere.

And far, far away, there it was.

A ma.s.sive asteroid, with a golden spire on top of it.

The last vestige left from an ancient, now extinct s.p.a.ce-traveling civilization.
