Chapter 270 - Killing Arantir
Chapter 270 Killing Arantir
No one would have thought that Roy would appear in such a… berserk manner! Countless thick tree trunks and rocks piled on the ground without any pattern, forming a large area that completely covered where the undead army was lurking. It was just like a foundation built by a group of workers without any construction technique. But this messy foundation made everyone understand one thing…
Arantir’s undead army was finished!
To put it bluntly, the weight of the materials that Roy collected along the way was almost equivalent to a mountain. Although the weight of this mountain was spread out, the weight on top of the undead army was still not something that a group of bones could lift. Even the place where the stronger bone dragons were was taken care of by Roy, making it impossible for them to dig their way out.
The undead were only undead, not groundhogs. Even if they could hide underground and did not need to breathe, they were unable to dig holes to escape from the area covered by these rocks and trees. Roy had basically used a physical method to seal Arantir’s undead army… Arantir was the only one in the entire army who saw the situation quickly. He had led his Death Incarnation and escaped before the rocks and trees landed. Seeing that Roy had buried his army, Arantir could not help shaking in anger. He saw the ground trembling slightly and knew that his troops were trying to get out, but unfortunately, they could only make the ground tremble twice…
“Since they’re undead, then they should stay underground obediently, right?” Roy slowly descended from the sky and landed on a huge rock. He looked at Arantir derisively. “We meet Arantir again, but the undead army seems to be worse than the last time!”
In the abdomen of the spectral dragon, Arantir glared at Roy without a word. His eyes seemed devouring Roy, but he soon closed his eyes. After opening them again, he regained his usual cold expression. “I have to admit that I made a mistake this time. But in my opinion, this is a test given to me by Asha… Demon! Even without an army, I will kill you and execute Asha’s will!”
With that, Arantir raised his arms and shouted, “Asha uses all!”
With his shout, the colossal Death Incarnation raised its skull and let out an invisible roar. The powerful dragon might that was as terrifying as death radiated out in all directions. Then it suddenly lowered its skull. A black pillar of light shot out from its mouth and headed straight for Roy!
At the same time, after seeing Arantir taking action, Astral and the others in the rear immediately urged their troops to advance and prepared to cooperate with Arantir’s attack.
Seeing the black pillar of light coming at him, Roy exerted strength under his feet and smashed the rock beneath his feet. While avoiding the death blast, he spread his wings and rushed toward the spectral dragon!
Arantir stared intently at Roy’s movements and quickly chanted a spell, preparing to use his magic to fight Roy. But he did not see that a layer of dragon scales now covered Roy’s tail…
S
A powerful death power mist rose from the spectral dragon’s body, and it swung its claws at Roy. The gigantic dragon bone claws slashed with sharp whistling sounds and covered Roy’s entire body in the attack range. But just as the dragon claws were about to hit Roy, he suddenly disappeared and flashed above the spectral dragon’s skull.
“Now!” Arantir waved his staff and cast a powerful Slow spell on Roy. The spectral dragon quickly took this opportunity to raise its skull and bite at Roy with its enormous mouth!
The Slow spell stopped Roy’s movements, but Roy only snorted coldly and did not move at all. He stretched out his fist and punched one of the spectral dragon’s dragon teeth!
Before the spectral dragon could bite Roy into its mouth, its longest dragon tooth cracked loudly under Roy’s punch…
This dragon tooth was nearly a meter long, but Roy’s punch broke it. Seeing this dragon tooth fall, Arantir was stupefied!
Although the Death Incarnation existed in the form of a spectral dragon and looked like merely a pile of bones, Arantir knew very well that the strength of this pile of dragon bones was incomparable to that of ordinary bone dragons under the enhancement of the formidable death power. Moreover, as long as the death power on the spectral dragon was still there, not only could it repair its injuries, but the spectral dragon was almost indestructible.
But now, this demon only punched once and directly broke a dragon tooth? How is this possible?!
Dragon teeth are the hardest part of a dragon…
Before Arantir could figure it out, Roy had already flown out of the spectral dragon’s mouth. Although the spectral dragon had bitten him, Roy escaped through the gap of the broken dragon tooth the moment it closed its mouth. If the spectral dragon could speak, it would only be a spectral dragon with air leaking through its mouth when it talked…
With the enhancement of Dragon Slayer Magic, Roy’s damage to all dragons would double. Although the damage merely doubled, Roy realized that this increase in damage was actually very high from testing with the punch.
After flying out of the dragon’s mouth, Roy made a quick turn. Arantir’s Slow spell had only taken effect on Roy for an extremely short time. At this moment, Roy had already regained his original speed. He came to the spectral dragon’s cheekbone and punched again. The spectral dragon’s enormous skull was almost several times larger than Roy’s body, and Roy looked tiny in front of the dragon’s skull. But it was this tiny figure that punched the spectral dragon’s skull several meters away!
Roy smashed the spectral dragon’s cheekbones into pieces, creating a large pit on the spot. The spectral dragon staggered and almost collapsed to the ground. As the cheekbones shattered, the black death power on the spectral dragon’s skull faded a lot. The relentless Roy quickly approached again with his speed advantage. He punched left and right over and over on the spectral dragon’s skull.
He was violently beating this spectral dragon…
Seeing that the death power on the spectral dragon was fading at an astonishing speed, Arantir was drenched with cold sweat. He hurriedly waved his staff and used Heal Undead to repair the wounds of the spectral dragon and replenish death power. At this moment, he no longer had the time to curse and weaken Roy. He only wanted to save the spectral dragon first.
However, his replenishment speed could not keep up with Roy’s destructive speed at all. After dozens of punches, Roy had already damaged the entire skull of the spectral dragon beyond recognition. The death power enveloping the skull had almost dissipated. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Roy suddenly stretched out his hand and summoned Frostmourne. He roared and swung his sword at the junction between the spectral dragon’s skull and neck!
Crack! A crisp sound rang out. He cut through the spectral dragon’s neck cleanly…
With a loud thud, the entire skull of the dragon fell to the ground, causing the ground to tremble… Arantir was utterly stunned. His impression of Roy was still at the time when they fought in the desert. He thought that even if the spectral dragon could not defeat Roy, it could still stall him long enough. This way, there would be hope for the alliance army in the rear to rush over and kill him. But who would have thought that Roy would cut off the skull of the Death Incarnation in less than a minute?!
Without the protection of the enormous dragon skull, the chest cavity of the spectral dragon was completely exposed in front of Roy. Roy flapped his wings and accelerated, rushing into the spectral dragon’s abdomen to face Arantir!
The spectral dragon was an undead. Its skull had fallen, but its body did not collapse. As long as Arantir cast the spell quickly, he might still be able to reattach the dragon’s skull. But now, looking up at Roy’s tall body in front of him, Arantir could no longer worry about helping the spectral dragon. Arantir waved his staff and cast Stone Skin and Shield on himself while quickly moving back.
The next second, Roy stretched out his hand, pinched Arantir’s head with his demon claws, and lifted him into the air! Arantir’s vision went dark, and he could not see anything.
It could not be helped. Humans were really short compared to a high-rank demon like Roy. Roy grabbed him like he was grabbing a chicken. Moreover, be it the mages of Bracada or the necromancers of Heresh, their physical fitness was not good, and it was often difficult to make effective responses in close combat.
But even so, Arantir did not stop resisting. He waved his staff and wanted to release a Decay curse on Roy. He chanted the spell quickly, wanting to force Roy to let go while the Stone Skin and Shield were still effective.
However, the incantation was only halfway through when Arantir suddenly froze because a longsword exuding cold death aura had pierced through his chest!
Seeing Frostmourne penetrate Arantir’s body, Roy released his claws expressionlessly, but Arantir was held on the sword like this…
Frostmourne was currently trembling rapidly. Ever since Roy approached Arantir, it had been exuding a strong desire. When it truly came into contact with Arantir’s soul, Frostmourne became even more excited. Without waiting for Arantir to die completely, it began to absorb his soul impatiently…
Although Arantir did not know what kind of sword Roy’s sword was, the curses in the sword were continuously pouring into his body, making him understand what his outcome would be.
“You actually want to transform me into an enslaved undead? Dream on!” Arantir shouted coldly at Roy. “Asha uses all!”
With Arantir’s words, Roy suddenly discovered that the magic power on Arantir was rapidly condensing in a berserk manner. He immediately realized what Arantir wanted to do and quickly waved his hand to cover his body with thick ice crystals.
Boom! The next second, Arantir actually blew himself up!
Under the protection of the ice, Roy did not suffer any damage at all, but Arantir had reversed his magic power and directly exploded his body! As a necromancer, he knew what it would be like to become an undead, so he would rather blow up his body than be turned into an undead by Roy’s Frostmourne and then serve him…
However, he still could not control his soul to explode, so Frostmourne eventually absorbed Arantir’s soul…
After the infusion of Arantir’s powerful soul, the two eyes on Frostmourne’s sword hilt glowed faintly, and the light gradually spread to the entire sword blade!
Roy knew that Frostmourne was evolving. It would evolve from a pseudo-divine artifact to a true divine artifact…
However, before Roy could see what attributes Frostmourne would evolve, he suddenly found that the dragon skeleton body of the Death Incarnation was trembling violently. Thinking that something was wrong, so he quickly flew out.
Logically speaking, the Death Incarnation was Arantir’s summon. After Roy killed Arantir, the Death Incarnation should have disappeared as well, but Roy found that this was not the case. An even stronger pressure and death aura were emanating from the spectral dragon’s body…
This spectral dragon seems to be… going berserk?!
