Immediately, the royal sword pointed forward, and he roared in his heart, "Raging Fang of the Forest Dragon!"
After being amplified by the [Super*Aura], the number of vines shot out this time was twice as many as usual, and the resulting wooden dragon was lifelike and twenty meters long.
A wisp of dragon might emanated from within, catching Fox off guard and shattering the battle aura wings it had condensed.
Looking at the menacing wooden dragon, Fox opened his mouth in astonishment, wondering how a skill that could only be obtained by killing a forest dragon could end up in Linda's hands.
As he pondered, the giant wooden dragon roared in and bit down on Fox.
Its tail transformed into vines that spread out, weaving a giant net that firmly pinned Fox upside down to the ground.
"Ugh...!"
Fox's shoulder blade snapped instantly, and he was pinned to the ground, his eyes flashing with terror for the first time.
Senlong's fangs couldn't kill him, but he couldn't break free in a short time either.
Throughout their battles, even when at a disadvantage, Fox has remained undefeated.
They are like spectators on a fighting stage, without any sense of danger, and can leave at any time using their wings.
Until now.
Trapped on the ground by the raging fangs of the Senlong, Fox was truly panicked!
"Lia, Tasia!"
Linda, her eyes red, roared.
"clear!"
"Yes, Master!"
Crimson flames ignited in Lia's long hair, with specks of golden light gathering within them.
She lowered her body and shot out in a flash.
Tasia took a deep breath and forcibly activated her second ultimate attack with the power of a witch.
Faced with the rising fighting spirit of the two, which resembled a volcanic eruption, fear appeared on Hu'er's face. He screamed hysterically, desperately cutting the giant vine net with his short knife, his whole body trembling uncontrollably.
He sensed a hint of death on the red-haired fool's greatsword!
No, I'm a Moon-Rank Adventurer, a distinguished figure! How can I die at the hands of these three brats?!
Foxy screamed in despair.
"Awooooo!"
Lia leaped from the ground, raising her greatsword high.
At the same time, the beam of light formed by Tasia's ultimate move, "Hurricane's Brace," fell upon it.
[Starfire Stream Slash] activated!
The two ultimate techniques merged together, and a dazzling light erupted from the greatsword.
Ultimate move combining wind and fire: Tornado of fire, raining down bullets!
The fiery projectile followed a beautiful parabola as it fell toward Fox.
Fox was ultimately unable to break free from the shackles of the raging dragon's fangs.
He weakly raised his head, his pupils reflecting the light woven from wind and fire.
Boom!
It sounded like a meteorite falling, the deafening roar was deafening.
The location where Hu'er was situated formed a scorched pit with a diameter of ten meters.
When the smoke cleared, Linda saw Fox lying at the bottom of the pit, his body charred black.
Its large, furry tail was blown off, and its leather armor was reduced to fragments.
It was motionless and lifeless.
"We...we won?" Leah walked up to Linda, panting.
Her body swayed, and she grabbed Linda's clothes from behind with her small hands to keep from falling.
Tasia deactivated her witch form, covered her chest with her left hand, bit her lip, and her brows were full of forbearance.
Using her ultimate move a second time has had some impact on her body, and she probably won't be able to fight for the next two weeks.
Even with the three of them working together, they only managed a Pyrrhic victory.
Facing the Foxes at their peak, they would most likely be the ones to lose.
"I need to become stronger. Right now, I can't even protect a single person." Leah gripped her heavy sword tightly, her voice filled with sorrow.
Linda noticed Leah's dusty little face, tapped her forehead, and said solemnly:
Pride is wrong, but so is self-deprecation!
The three of us at the Star Rank managed to defeat the Moon Rank opponent. Although it was a Pyrrhic victory, we can still be proud of it.
Looking at the history of the empire, how many instances are there of a Star-rank defeating a Moon-rank?
Leah, you can be a little proud now.
And Tasia, you all did a great job!
Linda praised.
Defeating a Star-ranked opponent to a Moon-ranked opponent is a feat worthy of being included in the textbooks of Adventurers' University.
The seemingly insurmountable gap was overcome in a single leap through the concerted efforts of the three!
"Is that so?" Leah's face brightened a little.
Tasia smiled and bowed slightly, "It is my honor to serve my master!"
"—Do you know where the terms Light Rank, Moon Rank, and Star Rank came from?"
Just as the three of them lowered their guard, a chilling, ghostly voice came from behind Linda.
The loud noise from the battle also attracted the attention of the surrounding monsters, as well as a petite woman in black robes who was flying in the sky with pale golden wings, searching for something.
Linda's mind went blank.
