Chapter 12: Fierce Battle in the Passage



Flames spewed out, dragon wings flapped!

Clean up!

Relying on the advantage of his huge size and the destructive power of his dragon breath, Wilmes successfully made one of the flesh golems keep a safe distance from him and prevented it from getting close to attack.

Not only that!

She also used her body weight to pin down another flesh-and-blood golem, making it unable to move.

Then he wielded his sharp claws to tear off the corpses that were enchanted with protective magic.

When a large amount of damage in a short period of time exceeded its self-repair ability, one of the flesh golems finally lost its ability to move completely and turned into a pool of broken corpse emitting the stench and breath of death.

“Well done!”

Zuo Si praised Wilmes generously, and then recovered a lot of black mana and common mana from the fallen golem.

Just as the red dragon pounced on another flesh-and-blood golem, ready to kill it in the same way, the originally empty passage in front of it suddenly began to flash with colorful and intense magical light.

Immediately afterwards, summoning arrays appeared out of thin air one after another.

In the blink of an eye, the passage was filled with creatures summoned by spell magic, there were dozens of them.

More than half of them are the Archnecromancer - Asta's favorite undead. There are also evil creatures such as ogres, trolls, half-giants, bugbears, orcs, as well as ferocious beasts such as wolves, lions, tigers, bears, and leopards.

Obviously, their real purpose is not to defeat invaders.

Instead, they relied on their numerical advantage to consume as much of the intruder's physical strength, spells, potions, scrolls, and magic items as possible.

Unfortunately, Wilmes had just completed a breath of fire and could not perform a second round of breath in a short period of time, and could not cause area damage to so many targets at the same time.

So she used the flesh golem under her as a weapon, grabbed one of its legs and smashed it forward hard.

Bang! With a loud noise, several undead creatures that were not afraid of the "dragon's might" and rushed to the front were crushed to death on the spot.

The skeleton warriors wearing metal armor and holding weapons were completely shattered by this blow.

The brutal and ferocious red dragon took advantage of the situation and leaped up, using its huge body as a weapon and the thick and hard scales on its back as protection, then it rolled over with a bang.

Large numbers of summoned creatures were instantly crushed by damage that exceeded their own health limits.

Colorful anti-summoning magic circles appeared under their feet, and they were sent back to the world they came from.

Just as Wilmes was preparing to press on and kill the rest, a strange noise suddenly came from the stairs at the corner of the passage.

Then two more flesh golems rushed out from above, carrying eight metal constructs of almost the same size.

The latter held heavy weapons such as axes, sickles, two-handed swords, and war hammers, all of which were shining with magical luster.

There is no doubt that these enchanted weapons meet the minimum standards for tearing through dragon scale defense.

“I need help!”

The Red Dragon Head shouted for support without replying.

At this moment, she finally understood why Zuo Si repeatedly emphasized how dangerous the road to the upper class was.

Those metal constructs armed with magical weapons alone are enough to trap an adult dragon in a small area and kill it.

“Back off!”

Zuo Si was obviously well aware that the battle in the passage had triggered the defense system of the upper area, so he took out the cards he had prepared long ago.

[Magic Card: Quagmire]

[LV1 Black Card (Cannot be upgraded)]

[Card Quality: Ordinary]

[Effect: Create a swampy area full of mud that is difficult to move in the designated location. Any object or creature weighing more than ten kilograms will be trapped in it regardless of friend or foe. Duration is one minute.]

[Using this card requires paying one general mana, one death mana, or double the other types of mana]

[When the quagmire is generated, the card automatically enters the cemetery and waits for rebirth for one day]

moment!

A large black swamp appeared out of nowhere in the middle of the passage.

Including the heavy flesh golems, metal constructs and some summoned creatures, they didn't even have time to react before they fell in and sank deeper and deeper.

Since the passage was relatively narrow, the entire ground was completely covered with mud, and there were walls on both sides, leaving no place to climb out.

But that's not all! Zuo Si obviously wouldn't let go of such a perfect output opportunity.

He quickly took out a magic scroll and activated the spell stored inside with a simple movement.

The next second...

A bright wall of fire appeared out of nowhere above the swamp, continuously burning the enemies who were stuck in the swamp and unable to move.

Immediately afterwards, another series of fireballs flew out from a gem ring that flashed red light, and exploded on the heads of the summoned creatures and the flesh golems.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! The flames from the explosion caused the temperature of the surrounding environment to rise rapidly, turning the entire passage into a purgatory.

The former is a transmutation magic called [Fire Wall], while the latter is a deluxe upgraded version of Fireball [Consecutive Fireballs].

Under such a fierce bombardment, the summoned creatures with the largest number were the first to collapse and all retreated.

The flesh golems, which were also weak to fire, also suffered very serious damage.

Only the metal structures did not show any sign of melting. Instead, they continued to struggle to climb out of the mud as if nothing had happened.

"Immune to fire damage?!" Wilmes's expression changed slightly.

As a red dragon with fire energy attribute, what she hates most are enemies that are immune to fire damage.

Because this means that one of the most powerful weapons - Flame Breath, will be completely useless.

"That should be some kind of iron golem with a specially designed appearance! Ignore them for now! Use your flaming breath to kill the flesh golem!"

At the critical moment, Zuo Si kept a clear and calm head.

The Flesh Golem's weakness is fire, and it will convert lightning damage it receives into energy to repair itself;

The Iron Golem's weakness is lightning, and it will convert the fire damage it receives into energy to repair itself.

If a Flesh Golem is attacked with a Fire spell, nearby Iron Golems will be repaired.

On the contrary, if you use lightning spells to attack iron golems, the nearby flesh golems will be repaired.

The Necromancer, Asta, is clearly using this combination to ensure that no matter what form of energy attack he suffers, at least one golem can pose a threat to the invaders.

If you don't understand these mechanics, or can't keep your mind clear during the battle, you will be exhausted to death by the two complementary golems.

Zuo Si’s tactical thinking was very clear, which was to first concentrate firepower to kill the flesh golem that had been severely damaged, and then deal with the steel golem that was stuck in the quagmire.

Although the red dragon was a little confused by this command, after a brief recovery, it opened its mouth and spewed out a breath of scorching flames.

After being ravaged by the fire wall, continuous fireballs and dragon breath in turn, all the flesh golems present finally couldn't hold on and turned into a black charred corpse.

While the mud on the ground had not yet disappeared, Zuo Si rushed forward quickly, stepped on the floor and the edge of the mud, lifted up the device fixed on his belt that stored a large amount of electrical energy, and released all the energy inside at once.

Snap! A thick lightning bolt shot out from the cylindrical crystal like a silver snake, accurately hitting the nearest steel golem in front.

Then came the second, third, fourth...

In a very short period of time, powerful electric light bounced back and forth between the steel golems several times.

Since they were all very close to each other at the moment, and metal was naturally a good conductor, they took almost all the damage from the lightning, with absolutely no waste at all.

Afterwards, Zuo Si was even more generous and activated several high-level magic scrolls in succession.

In an instant, all kinds of strong acid lightning raged above the heads of the steel golems.
