Chapter 139: Justified
Sneak Attack The heat came from below, penetrating the armor and warming my back.
The emergency rune shield flashed faintly on his body, preparing for the possible impact.
A long sword condensed from flames attacked, and Levi quickly threw out an ender pearl, which was teleported to the wall. The heat wave dispersed the remaining purple particles. The fire demon climbed on the rock and looked left and right. He found a figure below who was running while placing blocks under his feet. In a few seconds, he built a stone road and tried to climb up.
"hehe…"
A mocking laugh sounded, and the flaming sword in his hand dissipated, turning into a fiery long whip, which swung in the air with a "snap!" and rolled downwards as if it had eyes.
One of Levi's feet suddenly sank, and the next moment his whole body flew out uncontrollably, crashing into the cliff with a loud bang, scraping the protruding rocks and debris all the way and rolling upwards.
Whoosh——
The figure disappeared, and the person wrapped in the whip turned into a piece of purple particles.
The next moment, Levi appeared above the Balrog's head. After placing a few blocks under it, he quickly poured down a few buckets of water. A long stream of water spread downwards, covering the Balrog and pouring on the Balrog, making a crackling sound, and a large amount of steam returned.
But it couldn't hide the pair of bright orange-red eyes that were gradually approaching.
Boom!
The ground beneath his feet shattered with a loud bang. The few small pieces of water seemed ridiculous in front of the huge body of the Fire Demon and evaporated in an instant. The flames on the Fire Demon's body did not diminish at all, and with a roar, they became even more intense.
Levi lost his footing again and continued to fall.
For the Fire Demon, the one-block-wide road that was temporarily built was too thin. It was not even wide enough for him to hold in one hand, and it would break into pieces with just a pinch.
Ding! Levi drew out his nemesis and fought hard with the fire demon below. The sword shone brightly, emitting a light that it shouldn't have. The huge impact separated the two sides, one downwards and the other upwards.
The 'knockback' enchantment finally showed its true effect at this moment. This enchantment made every swing of the sword feel like a heavy hammer, greatly enhancing its striking power.
Does this also give Levi the capital to fight against the Flame Demon...?
Levi looked at the sword in his hand with some surprise.
This...? No, it's not just the repulsion, there are other things that have not been recognized by the system.
Levi has used this sword for so long that he knows very well what each enchantment does.
Roar! The unwilling fire demon climbed up the wall, and once again condensed a flaming sword in his hand. Levi was not afraid at all, and slashed at the fire demon with all his might.
Buzz——
There was a sharp collision sound, and the huge force made Levi feel his arm a little numb. Even the sword with such a strong vibration-dispersing ability could not relieve much of the impact. The recoil from the sword made the hand float backwards uncontrollably, and the flaming sword in the hand of the Fire Demon was successfully bounced away. This time the fight was evenly matched.
Ordinary swords are useless against the Fire Demon; they will only be melted into molten iron by the high temperature of his body.
But this does not include some swords with mysterious powers.
The nemesis was humming and emitting a cold light. At this moment, Levi finally understood that it was a blessing from the elves of the First Age.
One of the Balrog's titles is 'Elf Killer', because they killed too many elves, but the elves did not surrender, but fought bravely against them.
Looking at the sword, the Flame Demon showed an expression of surprise for the first time.
Which lord is here to seek revenge?
I have been sleeping for more than six thousand years, but these tiny creatures are still so powerful.
For thousands of years, this Durin's Bane had never left Moria, and he had no idea what was happening in the outside world.
Perhaps in his understanding, the outside world is still full of elven lords.
"Interesting human, I will remember you..."
"That's not necessary. I don't need to be remembered by those who live in disgrace."
Levi grabbed the protruding stone, looked down, and responded loudly to the fire demon.
“Hahahahahaha…”
The Fire Demon smiled.
The flames on its body turned from orange to deep red, and then approached white. Thick smoke rolled up from both sides of its wings, bringing with it waves of heat.
At this moment, Levi felt as if he had become bacon.
It is Moria Deep Pit style meat smoked with Balrog as fuel.
This plate would cost at least several hundred silver coins.
'If only Gandalf were here at this moment.'
Thinking of this, Levi threw out ender pearls one after another, constantly flashing and teleporting on both sides of the rock wall, as if he was running and walking on the vertical cliff, avoiding the fire demon's attacks again and again.
The fire demon spread his wings and followed Levi's teleportation trajectory closely, flying through the cliff valley. Everything behind him was burned black, and anything that blocked his way was shot down and crushed.
The momentum is extremely fierce.
Gandalf was able to defeat the Balrog not only relying on Glamdring or those limited magics in his hand, but also holding the Ring of Fire among the Three Rings of the Elves - 'Naya'. This ring possesses the power of fire and can command the sun's fire representing light to a certain extent to suppress the Balrog.
Hula——
The sudden sound of wind made Levi withdraw his attention, and an orange-white flame erupted, submerging Levi's entire body.
However, even the hottest flames could not cause any harm to him at this moment. Under the effect of the fireproof potion, Levi could only feel the existence of "heat", but would not be harmed by the heat.
But the fire demon's attack has more than just heat.
A huge sound of metal collision was heard, and the rune shield shattered. Under the bombardment of the Fire Demon's fist, which was bigger than an entire ogre, Levi's entire body flashed an afterimage and rolled out of the deep pit canyon.
The durability of the armor decreased after a long time, the health bar was greatly reduced, and then quickly recovered.
"Are you cooking?"
A nausea buff briefly appeared on the status bar for two seconds. Taking advantage of the opportunity to fly in the air away from the fire demon, Levi quickly threw out the ender pearl, passed through a door, escaped from the canyon and returned to the Hall of Miracles.
Then, the moment he landed, he took a deep breath of cold air.
call--
I have never felt that cold air can be so comfortable.
However, this coolness did not last long.
The heat was chasing after him.
Levi bit into a golden apple, and a faint golden light appeared on his body. At the same time, new amber runes spread out from the ring, covering every part of his body.
In the inventory, the magic elements stored in the staff are constantly decreasing to charge the rune shield.
This was truly the most embarrassing battle in history.
Levi turned around with gritted teeth.
After fighting for a long time, I didn't even see the health bar of the Flame Demon. How could I endure this? Boom boom...
There was a vibration from underground, and Levi's mind reflected a huge figure climbing up the valley wall.
"Can I bear this injustice?"
He quickly sprinted to the door, placed several rows of TNT along the door frame, and then squatted aside and waited quietly.
The vibrations were getting closer.
Boom! A loud noise exploded beside his ears. Since the door leading from the hall to the deep pit was not big enough for the body of the Flame Demon to pass through, he simply smashed the door directly, cracking the door frame and the wall above, turning into irregular rubble.
As the door collapsed, a foot stepped in.
“Good opportunity!”
Levi shouted, drew out his long sword and slashed down! Clang! Roar——
The fire demon yelled and pulled his toes back.
