Age of Adepts

Chapter 0984 - Raging Volcano

The battle is short and intense!

It had only been a mere fifteen minutes, and the Giant Serpent Sorcerer, Natagoo, was a little unable to hold on.

The environment here, the enemy's sorcery, and the terrifying flames that were burning his flesh and blood all the time were all inflicting insane damage on him.

The snake scales on his body surface had been baked and scorched red and brittle, and most of the flesh and blood beneath had been charred and carbonized. Every time the giant snake and the Terrifying Inferno's frantic biting and strangling caused large areas of the scaled and carbonized flesh on the snake's body to crumble away.

After Natagoo transformed into a black mamba serpent, although he had a powerful earth elemental aura, a powerful and unparalleled sonic sorcery, and a terrifying petrified pupil. But at this moment, when he was grabbed by the Terrifying Infernal Demon's neck with one hand and swinging his giant fist bang bang bang to death against the snake's head with the other, he would still have an illusion that he was going to burst out of his own strength and die in the next moment.

While being blasted by the snake's head, the hundreds of wounds on the serpent shaman's body were like countless tiny worms wriggling around, trying to repair the damage. Flesh and blood were even growing wildly, trying to re-cover the missing parts.

But all these efforts were wasted in a fierce and fierce fire.

As soon as the new flesh and blood grew, it quickly blackened and charred, then carbonized and flew away, and this cycle of excruciating pain was the main cause of Natagu's near-insanity.

It was simply too damned painful!

The serpent shaman, blurred by the intense pain in his flesh, had forgotten everything and only knew how to exhaust all means to inflict the same damage on his enemies with his fiercest attacks.

The head of the snake was pinned down, unable to bite the enemy, and the pupils of terror and petrification shot out two gray rays, wildly sweeping everything around it. Even if the thick and heavy fluid magma met the petrifying rays, it would instantly solidify and turn into a lump of grey rock.

The two witches who were on the periphery were trying to attack Grim while also dodging Natagoo's nearly out of control petrification rays, and the scene was once very chaotic.

The thick and strong snake body of the giant snake witch was frantically strangling the terrifying inflammation demon, allowing the terrifyingly hot flames spewing from the other side's body still didn't let up a bit. And with Natagu's madness, the long and thick snake's body also tightened, strangling the demon's body with a creaking sound, as if to crush it into mincemeat.

The long tail of the snake turned into a whip, and struck the spine of the demon, even though it was bloodied and blurred.

The two giants tumbled and tore in the depths of the magma, and terrifying waves of power rolled outwards layer by layer. Wherever they passed, rocks crumbled, mountains trembled, lava fire pools boiled and roared, and shockwaves of power so powerful that they could not be unleashed pushed fluid magma out, wildly gushing out of the crater.

Looking down from a height of ten thousand meters, the Gonsas Volcano was boiling at this moment!

Half of the towering crater was missing, and raging, stirring crimson magma gushed out of the ground, rushing down the rugged, rocky slope. Shattering and shattering everywhere on the Nor'easter, a terrifyingly hot stream of air gushed out from it, heating up the world completely.

Even twenty to thirty kilometers away from the Gonsas Volcano, one could feel the pounding scorching heat!

The Gonsas Volcano had now transformed into a fiercely burning torch, dyeing most of the sky's dome a shockingly fiery red color. Thick black smoke rolled up, and a huge flint that was still bursting into flames spewed out with the terrifying stream of flame, turning into a fiery meteor that streaked across the sky. Wherever it landed, it became a terrifying sea of fire.

A team that had been ordered to quickly head to the Gonsas Volcano stopped at the edge of the sea of fire.

A holy knight with distinct armor and a calm air desperately tried to reassure the horses on their hips, but still could not drive them to take another step forward.

Looking at the terrifying volcano that had turned into a pillar of fire in the distance, looking at the apocalyptic scene around them, all the Paladins were horrified inside, and their gazes towards the volcano finally revealed unmistakable fear.

Was this the power of the witches?

Overturning rivers and seas, the heavens and earth cracking, volcanoes melting....

A series of terrifying words and phrases rolled through their hearts, but it was really difficult to describe or depict their current feelings.

Witnessing the power of the Otherworldly Sorcerer with their own eyes also caused the hearts of many Holy Knights to tremble slightly, perhaps, perhaps... that Lord Holy Knight couldn't possess such terrifying power either!

As soon as the thought surfaced, they quickly erased it from their minds, then bowed their heads and silently recited the Paladin's Ten Commandments a few times, which initially calmed their fears.

"Thomas, you are to return to the camp immediately and relay everything you see here to Lord Ard Calais, who will make a decision." Headed by a 2nd rank Silver Knight, he gave the order swiftly.

Without argument or delay, the named young Paladin knocked violently on his chest, slapped his horse and turned away.

Only when his companion's figure disappeared in the distance did the silver knight shouted loudly: "Before your lordship gives a new order, we will continue with our previous mission, scouting the Gonsas Volcano. Everyone dismount and move forward, immediately..."

As he shouted, the squad, which numbered nine and was led by a 2nd rank Silver Knight, with the remainder consisting entirely of Black Iron Knights, jumped off their horses, allowing them to let their hooves loose and gallop towards the way they had come.

After briefly organizing themselves, the members of the Paladin squad took out their shields, and under the leadership of that Silver Knight, they stepped into the scorched and terrifying earth without turning back.

On the other side of the volcano from the Paladin, in the middle of the leafy primeval jungle, an army of strange shapes was advancing silently.

The vast forest, which was originally teeming with life, was particularly quiet and peaceful at this moment.

All the creatures of the jungle, whether herbivorous or carnivorous, whether predator or prey, are like small beasts that have encountered a natural enemy, hiding in their lairs and huddling there in a ball and shivering.

The jungle is silent inside, only a quick and light rustling sound into one.

If a hunter were to go deeper into the jungle, he or she would find countless ugly and bizarre figures running around in the sheltering jungle.

In appearance, they somewhat resembled living corpses and still had remnants of human form on their bodies. But right now, they were all crawling on their bellies, hands and feet on the ground, running rapidly through the jungle of vines, shrubs and thorns, aiming straight at the huge volcano that was almost burning through the sky at the far end of the horizon.

Plague Poison Spirit Remy sat on the back of a particularly strong and solid plague beast, rushed up a cliff jutting out of the forest sea, and gazed at the rushing pillar of fire from afar.

In front of and behind it, in the vast primeval jungle below the cliff, countless plague creatures covered in yellow-green smoke clouds were running wildly. Even with their hatred and hunger for flesh and blood creatures, they had passed through so many beast's lairs and tree dens, but there was never a single plague creature that stopped to bite and eat.

They were driven by the plague poison spirit Remy, and they were madly pouncing on that violently erupting terrifying volcano.

As for, with their 'feeble' bodies and 'weak' abilities, what they could do in a witch war of this intensity, they wouldn't even think about it, nor did they need to think about it.

As long as Plague Poison Spirit Remy gave the order, even if they were to all jump into the crater and turn to ash, none of the plague creatures would hesitate to delay for a moment.

This was perhaps the most frightening aspect of the plague creatures!

...................

The battle at the base of the volcano of Gonsas is untenable as all sides desperately advance towards the volcanic region!

Surprisingly, the defeated side of the battle was surprisingly the outnumbered hunting witches.

Grim, who was transformed into a terrifying Infernal Demon, was surprisingly powerful, and his sudden surge of mental strength was the key to the outcome of the battle.

Natagu, who had been suffering in the flames and magma for a quarter of an hour, didn't wait for the inflammatory demon's power to subside... so he gritted his teeth and held on for two quarters, three quarters... until three hours....

Unfortunately, no matter how much he kept fighting, he still couldn't see any signs of his opponent's power fading or decaying. The battle between the two sides was so fierce that it left Natagu the Snake Shaman in his heart.

He was no longer as brave as before, and his appearance was vastly different from the beginning of the battle.

Most of the snake scales had fallen off under the scalding hot magma and baking flames, and the red flesh had been burnt off one layer after another. At this point, twenty percent of the seventy percent of energy consumed by Natagu had been used to stimulate the growth of flesh and blood.

The twenty-meter-long thick snake's body was covered with scorched sores and blood marks, and every giant blow would cause hundreds of wounds and fissures on the snake's body, spewing black blood that was directly vaporized by the terrifying heat before it could even leave the body three feet.

On the thick snake's head that was raised high, one pupil had shattered, leaving only a black, bloody hole. The mouth full of fangs and sharp teeth had chipped off most of its teeth, and even the swallowing snake's letter had been ripped off, still wildly bleeding.

At this point, the Giant Serpent Sorcerer was simply as miserable as it was going to get!

However, compared to him, the Grim who had transformed into a terrifying inflammatory demon on the opposite side wasn't necessarily much better than him.

The 7-meter tall demonic body is full of huge wounds from the torn fangs, the wounds are black and smoky, and the flesh that has been turned out is purple and black fishy, emitting a choking smell. The broad back ridge covered with mysterious magic patterns, a sharp spine has been broken root by root, black blood mixed with crimson lava gurgling.

The body's lava shield and flame shield whirled and whirled, summoned out before even ten flexes of the fingers were knocked out and shattered one by one by the ferocious sorcery. Even the lava armor covering the tall body crumbled to pieces, revealing the indigo dark purple demonic body beneath.

The demonic power that the Level 2 Inferno Heart could bring to Grim was no longer enough to deal with such an epic battle. At this moment, all that Grim was absorbing and gathering was the boundless flaming power of the Lava Fire Pool, using them to frantically heat up the burning field, burning one by one the hunting sorcerers in it to a crisp and scorched state.

Finally, the giant serpent wizard Natagu, who was at the forefront of the battle, couldn't sustain the massive trauma to his body and abandoned the battle and fled!
