Chapter 101: Max’s Counterattack!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Thunder roared!
With Avril as its center, a huge crater with a 30-meter radius had appeared!
Once the terrifying lightning had dissipated, a 2-meter-long ice crystal remained that levitated in the air and emitted a faint glow.
A very small crack had appeared on the crystal at this moment, and it was difficult to notice at first glance.
However, the crack soon began to enlarge, and before long, it had spread out like a spider web that covered the entire crystal.
Crack!
The ice crystal shattered and revealed a disheveled Avril.
Avril’s had been roughed up bad, and countless scars had appeared across her delicate skin.
She panted heavily while staring fixedly in Max’s direction.
She had suffered a devastating blow, all because she had underestimated Max’s strength!
Had it not been for her sturdy body, it was likely that she would have suffered a grievous wound as a result of Max’s terrifying Thunderous Divine Retribution. Should that happen, she was most likely lose the ability to fight, and her fate would be sealed.
“I was careless, but you won’t get such an easy shot from this moment onwards.”
Avril roared, and her a faint blue light enveloped her entire body.
The blue light continuously expanded, and before long, the light had solidified to form a projection of a dragon the size of a small mountain!
The scales of the towering dragon were completely silver. From afar, it looked like a statue carved out of pure silver.
The huge wings on its back were much larger than Max’s. The arrogance in its eyes that was not hidden at all, and there was a noble air to it.
It was Avril’s true dragon form.
At long last, Avril’s appearance had finally matched Max’s mental image of the Silver Dragons.
“To be honest, I like this appearance more than your previous one.”
Max commented.
“Lowly, inferior Red Dragon, are you really falling for your mortal enemy’s body in a battle of life and death?”
Avril raised her head arrogantly and snapped at Max with contempt.
Max snorted coldly and responded.
“You misunderstand. What I mean is that it’s much easier to land my attacks on you now!”
With that, Max then flapped his wings.
A powerful hurricane formed behind him, and the huge thrust had increased Max’s speed greatly.
He targeted his razor sharp claws at Avril’s neck, and as a result of his powerful swing, he had even generated a sonic boom.
“Puny tricks.”
Avril did not take Max’s actions seriously at all. Although Max could be considered to be a prodigy amongst Dragon Hatchlings, Avril was certain that as a Young Dragon, she could easily handle his attack.
Not only did Avril not bother to dodge Max’s strike, she had even purposely greeted it.
A magic array had appeared out of thin air, layering right over her haughty neck. Within it, one could sense a bitter cold that could freeze one’s soul.
“Ice spirits, heed my call.”
“Turn into a sharp blade and attack my enemy!”
Avril’s voice resounded throughout the surroundings, and the magic array began to absorb the ice energy in the surroundings rapidly!
Several icicles were condensing one after another behind her, and each icicle was at least 3 meters long and half a meter thick!
They were no longer icicles. At this point, it was more accurate to call them spears of ice!
The number of icicles behind Avril constantly increased, and within 3 seconds, a hundred of them had already formed!
All the icicles were locked onto Max, should Max lay a claw on her, these powerful icicles would launch and pierce through Max’s body.
The absolute defense of dragons were only true on a relative scale. Although Max’s scales were considered impenetrable to human weapons, to the Silver Dragon Avril, they were no different from a thin sheet of paper.
The materials that formed the Dragon-vanquishing Bolts that were capable of piercing dragons had been obtained from dragons, after all.
From the looks of it, dragon attacks were not something that other dragons could defend against.
However, despite the hundreds of icicles looming over him, Max only snorted at them. With a quick flap of his wings, Max then adjusted the angle of his attack.
The claws that were originally aimed at Avril had scraped against the ground and created a wave of ice shards that were launched towards her.
With the help of the recoil, Max quickly left Avril’s attack range.
However, it was clear that Avril would not let Max escape that easily.
“Trying to leave?”
“Fat chance!”
The complicated magic array that Avril had cast was fully charged. She did not seem bothered by Max’s escape attempt.
The countless icicles behind her suddenly shot forwards towards Max!
Avril’s also launched forward. As a Silver Dragon, the icicles that she had cast would not cause any real harm to her.
She needed to stop Max from escaping.
As a Young Dragon, her speed had surpassed Max’s!
Max wanted to escape, but Avril had quickly caught up to him.
The hundreds of icicles in the sky were also locked onto him!
“Damn it…”
Max cursed.
All of a sudden, Max halted, and turned back around. He was now charging towards Avril!
He was condensing mana once more within his mouth!
Countless dark purple light spots appeared on Max’s body. Avril had originally intended to pursue the fleeing Max, however, instead of escaping, Max was now coming to attack her instead!
The distance between the two was rapidly closing!
Despite this, Avril did not stop her advance.
After all, as long as she could stall Marx, the hundred-odd ice spears behind her would definitely pierce through Max’s body.
Even if Max were to survive the attack, he would still be severely injured!
“Lightning Paralysis!”
Max’s figure suddenly appeared before Avril, and he immediately bit down on Avril’s neck. While doing so, he had also unleashed the Lightning Paralysis that he had prepared!
If he had unleashed it directly, it would only be able to paralyze Avril for a moment. However, since Max had bitten into her directly, its effects were even more pronounced!
Avril’s body was instantly subjected to an intense paralysis!
