Chapter 417: Chapter 413: Gamma, Spit it Out!
“Now that I think about it, Gamma’s elemental resistance proficiency has been maxed out for quite a while. It’s a good time to grind a bit here,”
Watching as Gamma easily blocked the Fire Tyrant’s attack, Bai Qi gave a slight nod of approval. He promptly signaled for Alpha and Gamma to switch tasks.
Gabble Gabble?
(Boss, are we not retreating?)
“From the look of Gamma, we don’t need to— for now.”
Bai Qi gestured to the fire elements that were weakening from the Bloodsucking Aura and began to relax. He morphed Gamma’s split body into a lounging chair, settling into it comfortably to enjoy the spectacle.
Alpha also noticed Gamma’s advantage against these elemental creatures but, he continued to stand by Bai Qi’s side, vigilantly sweeping the surroundings.
After all, they weren’t in familiar territory—for now— caution was a must.
On the other side, the Fire Tyrant, detecting the threat Gamma posed, burrowed out from underground with a forceful claw swipe. Two columns of fire rose from the ground, directly enveloping Gamma.
As a high level Elemental King, the Fire Tyrant’s control of the fire element could not be matched by any other creature. This powerful fire column was essentially instant, leaving no chance for Gamma to dodge.
Kapow kapow~
(Nice and toasty~ Master, do you want to contract it?)
“Binding a contract with a six-stage king directly, I’d explode.”
Bai Qi waved his hand, saying, “Besides, that creature has a bad temper. I’ll pass. It doesn’t matter, we’re already in the Elemental World—it’s better to take our time and choose.”
Awoooo awoooo!
(Human, you finally have a smidgen of this old dog’s wisdom!)
Beta nodded repeatedly upon hearing this, contracting such a large creature would result in him being cooked, Declined!
Kapow kapow.
(Can Gamma eat it then?)
“Gamma, where’d you learn such savage language…”
Seeing Gamma’s undisguised desire for the Fire Tyrant, Bai Qi covered his face, sighed, and looking at the elephant-and-ant size difference between the Fire Tyrant and Gamma, couldn’t help but ask.
“Gamma, are you sure you can eat it?”
Kapow kapow!
(Gamma feels hungry, should be able to eat.)
While speaking, Gamma seemed to prove his truthfulness— the Angel and Demon bodies simultaneously surged. Suddenly, it swallowed the fire column in a single gulp.
“Feels like we’re still dealing with the after-effects of the Evil Energy Snake Statue, huh.”
Seeing Gamma’s behavior, Bai Qi couldn’t help but scratch his head, feeling somewhat worried.
Even though Gamma could eat, he’d kept to a regular meal schedule. But now he seemed keen on eating a six-stage king. How would he feed it…
Roar!
The Fire Tyrant experienced Gamma’s provocation and his rage was once again ignited. His body increased sizably, looking down at Gamma as if he were an ant.
However, at this moment, Gamma was utterly attracted by the strong energy aura emanating from the Fire Tyrant and had no idea what fear was. The Angel and Demon split bodies, flapped their wings and charged toward the Fire Tyrant.
Owing to having consumed the energy of the Judgement Angel, the angel’s split body was as fast as a thunderbolt, far surpassing the demon split body in speed, and instantly arrived in front of the Fire Tyrant.
Kapow kapow.
(Gamma’s going to begin.)
Gamma looked at the solid energy body in front of him, no longer restraining his desire, and with a flash of thunder in his hand, he bombarded the Fire Tyrant with a cluster of flames, then swallowed them.
The rich fire element collided violently inside the Angel split body, turning the Diamond Body of the Angel red. Yet, it couldn’t break Gamma’s body, and finally was overshadowed by the Holy Light.
But the Fire Tyrant also seized the moment Gamma was digesting, and smacked him violently, intending to squash Gamma.
Upon seeing this, Gamma, however, had no intention of avoiding and instead faced it head-on.
Splat!
A crisp sound echoed as the Angel split body was hit directly by the Fire Tyrant. A smirk spread across the Fire Tyrant’s face as he prepared to switch targets. He suddenly realized something was wrong and hurriedly looked at his claws.
His lava-like claws were full of holes. Through these holes, he could vaguely see beams of Holy Light shooting out and countless thunderbolts crawling along the fiery claws towards the Fire Tyrant’s body.
With the robust defense ability of the Schizonepeta Body, in addition to Elemental Resistance and Physical Resistance, that earlier strike hardly caused Gamma any damage.
In contrast, because of the Schizonepeta Body’s ability to reflect damage, the Fire Tyrant sustained considerable damage.
Hurt the enemy for a hundred, harm yourself for eight thousand.
The Fire Tyrant’s technique was somewhat akin to the Beast Control version of the Seven-Injury Fist.
However, the Fire Tyrant seemed to have realized this point, swiftly inhaled, and the surrounding flames instantly receded, filling up the hollows in his forearm. Yet, the Fire Tyrant did not rashly attack again, but instead flung Gamma into the sky and opened his mouth wide to spit out a highly condensed fireball, aiming to spray the Angel split body.
All an elemental creature needed to do to rapidly repair itself was to absorb energy from its surroundings without any harm to its core. Here, in the Fire Element World, the Fire Tyrant wasn’t afraid of a battle of attrition.
Just at that moment, the Fire Tyrant’s body violently shook, and the fireball was deflected, flying toward the sky after brushing by Gamma.
The one who attacked wasn’t anyone else, it was the Demon split body who had been a step slower than the Angel split body.
At this moment, the demon avatar was burning in a green evil energy flame, undeterred by the terrifying fire that engulfed the Fire Tyrant, and even eroding him instead.
Compared to the angel avatar’s lightning-fast speed, the demon avatar clearly had an advantage in power, using a simple, raw combination of punches that made the Fire Tyrant shake.
However, what infuriated the Fire Tyrant the most was that the demon avatar acted like a wild beast, tearing off a chunk of energy from him and swallowing it whole.
For elemental creatures like the Fire Tyrant, the size of their body directly affected the amount of their energy. After suffering from two consecutive attacks, the Fire Tyrant’s rage reached its peak.
In an instant, flames surged over the Fire Tyrant’s body, a complex fire array appeared beneath the Gamma demon avatar, then a blast of energy exploded, swallowing the demon avatar.
Not only that, similar arrays also appeared in the sky, relentlessly pursuing the angel avatar.
[Skill Name]: Magma Grimoire
[Skill Level]: Transcendent Level
[Skill Introduction]: Only elemental creatures can use this talent. It can maximize the explosive power of fire.
…
“I didn’t expect this big dumb guy to be capable of using such precise skills.”
Watching the Fire Tyrant meticulously controlling the Magma Grimoire to relentlessly chase the angel avatar, Bai Qi was a bit surprised.
“Schuck, do you have a record of that array? We should see if we can recreate it later.”
“I’ve already started recording, but it will take some time.”
Schuck set up a bunch of recording devices, tracking the array that flashed across the sky. Meanwhile, the screen next to him was slowly restoring the Magma Grimoire.
As the most specialized researcher in the team, Schuck would not miss any potentially useful knowledge.
“Boss, is Lord Gamma okay?”
Insect Grass looked worriedly at the angel avatar being somewhat hounded by the Magma Grimoire and the demon avatar standing foolishly on the spot being bombarded by it.
“Stay calm, they’re just avatars after all.”
Bai Qi slapped the on the green lounge chair underneath, revealing a pair of eyes, which were Gamma’s.
Although confident in his combat power, Gamma had kept his main body by Bai Qi’s side for safety, allotting ninety-nine percent of his energy to the angel and demon avatars.
Ka-Pup Ka-Pup.
(Master, Gamma really likes this place. There’s inexhaustible energy everywhere.)
Gamma was wholeheartedly absorbing energy in the Fire Element realm, replenishing his expended energy, his eyes full of happiness.
“Don’t just focus on eating. Finish off that big guy first.”
Bai Qi clapped Gamma, who immediately understood. Both avatars in the distance also started to move.
Roar!!!
A roar came from the demon avatar. The evil energy flame exploded, turning the ground into green. The Fire Tyrant’s Magma Grimoire could no longer gather.
The flames dissipated, revealing the demon avatar’s gigantic jade body. It was full of cracks, but they were being repaired at a rate visibly noticeable to the eye.
Seeing the demon avatar actually withstand his Magma Grimoire, the Fire Tyrant, filled with doubts, attacked the demon avatar again.
No matter how much of a fighter it seemed, it was still just an ant, incapable of withstanding him.
Bang!
A loud noise sounded, and the ground under the Fire Tyrant’s giant claw sank heavily, but he was frozen mid-air and was being slightly pushed back.
The demon avatar had actually managed to withstand the Fire Tyrant’s strike.
Taking advantage of the Fire Tyrant’s distraction, the demon avatar attacked again. Its already massive body swiftly inflated, successfully pushing the Fire Tyrant back.
Seeing this, the Fire Tyrant felt a sense of danger for the first time. He tried to retaliate, but the demon avatar had already grasped both of his arms.
Under the fiery red sky, a red and a green giants began a wrestling match.
However, Gamma obviously had no intention of prolonging the struggle with the Fire Tyrant. While the demon avatar was wrestling with the Fire Tyrant, the angel avatar also launched an attack.
Because of the Fire Tyrant’s distraction, the angel avatar finally had the time to prepare an attack. The intense power of holy light gradually started to gather above the angel avatar’s head under his control.
Rumbleee!
Accompanied by a loud noise, the bright holy light appeared in the sky, illuminating half of the sky, while white lightning bolts fell from heaven, mercilessly pouring down on the Fire Tyrant.
The Holy Storm was released at full force, turning into a thundering prison that completely engulfed the Fire Tyrant.
Not only that, the doomsday of the demon avatar completely eroded the hundreds of meters of land surrounding the Fire Tyrant, cutting off the Fire Tyrant’s energy supply at the root.
The two great fields, above and below, completely isolated the Fire Tyrant from the Fire Element World, grinding away at a once grand six-stage King till nothing was left.
Finally, the flames on the Fire Tyrant’s body completely disappeared, leaving just a stone flashing with red light floating in the air.
“Is that… an elemental core?”
As Bai Qi saw this, his eyes widened, he immediately tried to stop Gamma, but Gamma was a step ahead, swallowing the Elemental Core in one gulp.
“Gamma, spit it out immediately! That thing could replace a hundred meals for you!”
