Chapter 57: Felix Enraged, Take My Fiery Fist!
Splat!
A hint of confusion flashed across Felix’s eyes.
He watched helplessly as Dorian, who was less than a dozen meters away from him, was crushed into a bloody pulp.
Felix gritted his teeth, and his eyes turned red with rage!
He clenched his fists, and his entire body trembled.
He glared at Max viciously at Max as his rage fueled him with strength.
“Calm down, Felix!”
“He’s just a squad leader. If he dies, then so be it.”
Gallio, who was still some distance away, cursed upon noticing Felix’s exaggerated reaction.
As far as Gallio was concerned, it was extremely stupid to take such a risk for a mere squad leader.
“Don’t speak as if you know it all! You’re a b*stard whose mind is filled with only alchemy!”
Felix roared, but this did little to alleviate his anger.
“In my opinion, he is much more important than you!”
“Even if a hundred of you or a thousand of you were to be sacrificed, it would still not be as huge a loss as a brave soldier, full of fighting spirit, who’s willing to give it their all for their nation!”
“Vile dragon, I will make you realize what a foolish decision you have made.”
The water spirits that surrounded Felix began to fluctuate violently at this moment.
Soon after, they water spirits formed waves upon waves of white mist. It was as if they had evaporated into water vapor.
Following this, water droplets gradually appeared on Felix’s incomparably firm muscles.
However, just a moment later, a pillar of flame suddenly erupted from Felix’s body!
Boom!
Fierce flames enveloped Felix’s body at this moment!
The death of his subordinate, combined with his guilt of being unable to said subordinate, had finally allowed Felix to realize the fury contained within the fire element.
Ruthless, relentless, arrogance, and the desire to raze everything.
The essence of the fire element was finally made known to Felix, and it had given him a massive power up!
Lines upon lines of flaming patterns appeared across his skin, and the power contained within those flaming patterns had even caused miniature explosions to ring out within the air.
As he observed Felix’s condition, Calsus, who was still some distance away, muttered to himself, “To think that you are able to evolve through your emotions during battle… Felix, you are truly a genius.”
“You are one of the few individuals whose strength I have acknowledged. Should you survive this battle, Felix, perhaps I will recommend you to the mysterious big shot within the carriage.”
…
Meanwhile, Max was also very much surprised by Felix’s sudden transformation.
“Ding dong!”
“Detected that the human in front of the host, Felix’s stats have begun to increase.”
[ Attack, Spell Strength, Defense, and other attribute points have all increased by 10 points. ]
[ Felix has also learned a new spell: Savage Flames, fire element strike, Fireball, Fiery Fist. ]
After listening to the system’s explanation, Max frowned slightly.
‘Why are all my opponents’ monsters? It feels like I’m about to get beaten up.’
After the explosive powerup that Felix had received, Max no longer intended to fight him head-on.
Instead, he used his dragon breath to cause a huge explosion, and following this, he then launched into the air with a powerful flap of his wings.
“Trying to leave, vile dragon?”
“It won’t be that easy!”
“I will make you pay for what you’ve done!”
Felix roared, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
A scarlet light filled his eyes.
Then, the flow of the air changed!
It was as if Felix was the main character of the world at this moment.
The air moved rapidly like a strong hurricane. An instant later, it had all gathered around Felix.
Within Felix’s hand, a blazingly bright orb rapidly began to form.
“Can you withstand this move of mine, dragon?!”
“Fiery Fist!”
Felix closed his mouth, and his right fist, which had already accumulated immense power, was launched straight towards the air!
Rumble!
A thunderous explosion rocked the air!
Immediately after, a red fist that was dozens of meters wide appeared out of thin air!
The vast amount of energy contained within the fist had shocked even Gallio, who was an expert pyrotechnic.
Waves of powerful energy tore through the air as if it was threatening to obliterate anything that came close to it.
Moreover, the flaming fist was very fast. In less than 5 seconds, it had already closed the gap between itself and Max!
“When did this kid become so powerful?”
“What on earth did he take?”
“With this much power, he might even be able to make it into the Diamond Rank!”
Gallio subconsciously took a glance at Calsus. After all, throughout all this time, Calsus, who was extremely close to reaching the Diamond Rank, was the only one among the three of them who could unleash such a powerful attack!
Max clicked his tongue. He refused to perish here. Acting quickly, Max then opened his mouth wide and began condensing electricity!
“Thunderous Divine Retribution!”
Boom!
The two powerful energies instantly came into contact, and in an instant, a violent explosion ensued, scattering apart the thick ominous clouds covering the sky!
The sky was clear!
Stars dotted the sky, and it looked incomparably beautiful.
Mia, who was hiding behind the clouds, was struck by the shockwaves from the explosion. Realizing that she was exposed, she hurriedly flapped her wings and hid among the scattered dark clouds.
Fortunately, however, no one had noticed Mia. All eyes were trained on the situation unfolding on the field.
Max’s strength had already far exceeded everyone’s expectations.
Should Max survive the Fiery Fist and come out unscathed, then who else, other than the three leaders, was a match for the Dragon Hatchling?
The soldiers could not help but think to themselves, ‘Just how monstrous would this hatchling be once it grows up?’
The seeds of hatred had already been planted. Once Max had fully matured and decided to take revenge, the humans of the future would undoubtedly pay a heavy price!
This was a scene that the old king absolutely did not want to see!
In order to prevent this from happening, no matter how great the price was, Max needed to die in this very battlefield!
“Sir Calsus, aren’t we going to help?”
“I think that with the three of us working together, this little dragon will definitely not be our match.”
“Let’s keep on observing. This little dragon has been giving me bad vibes ever since I saw it.”
After stopping Gallio, Calsus continued, “Felix won’t fall so easily. Moreover, he’s currently consumed by rage. Let’s have him vent his frustrations.”
