Chapter 1038: Casanova’s Ambition
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Unlike the Tusk Growler, which only covered its vital parts with a metal exoskeleton, it was very easy to find the gaps between its armor. The body of the Ankylosaurus was covered with a uniform and tight metal shell, other than the air holes on its abdomen, which were used to dissipate heat, there were almost no flaws.
Plus, its abdomen was protected by the strange tail of a meteor hammer, so it was extremely difficult to find the angle of attack.
Moreover, the Ankylosaurus’ body was extremely huge, almost taking up half of the ground.
When it shook its head and used the bone tumors on both sides of its head to restrict Ice Storm’s dodging space, Ice Storm had no way to escape the lock of the strange tail.
Boom! Boom boom! Boom boom boom!
The hammer on the Ankylosaurus’ tail brushed past Ice Storm’s side a few times, and it smashed the hard iron-like ground, creating large, shocking craters.
The ice storm also tried to stimulate the power of holy light to the extreme, using the light blade to hack at the Ankylosaurus’ shell.
However, no matter how the flames surged and how the armor screamed, it could not cut through. At most, it would leave a black scorch mark.
After several attacks, Ice Storm was forced into a dead corner.
Facing the unavoidable tail hammer, she could only turn the light blade into light wings again, overlapping in front of her to block the Ankylosaurus’ strongest attack.
Boom!
A thunderous sound exploded between the bone hammer and the light wings.
Although she had barely blocked the attack of the Ankylosaurus, she had to pay the price with blood spurting out of her body, cracking her skin, and cracking sounds bursting out of the bones in her arms, shoulders, and sternum.
Even the dazzling light wings were dimming at a visible speed in the stalemate with the Ankylosaurus.
This indicated that the power of holy light in the snow leopard female warrior’s body, which should not have existed in the first place, was about to be exhausted.
Blocked by the wings of light, the Ankylosaurus became extremely irritable. Its six limbs, which were as thick as giant pillars, were deeply embedded into the floor. At the same time, it burst out with astonishing strength.
Its huge body, which weighed several tons, was pressing down on Ice Storm’s wings of light together with its tail hammer.
The light wings kept shrinking and dimming, as if there were countless cracks on the glass, which would shatter at any time.
Ice Storm took a deep breath and gambled everything.
She suddenly retracted her light wings.
The Ankylosaurus, which was trying its best to compete with her, suddenly lost its balance. It rushed forward and crashed into the corner of the wall.
Ice Storm gently tapped her head, and her whole body rose into the air and flashed behind the Ankylosaurus.
Although the Ankylosaurus could not see where she was, it was still able to sense her presence with its sharp senses thanks to the cells on its tail hammer that could sense the air flow.
The Ankylosaurus’ hammer tail let out a piercing sound as it shot toward her with precision like a cannonball.
However, Ice Storm had already caught the Ankylosaurus’ attack pattern.
Ice Storm rotated her body in the air for half a turn, leaping off the Ankylosaurus’ head and legs and kicking herself off its hammer tail.
With the help of the rebounding force, she reached the bottom of the Ankylosaurus’ tail, near its abdomen.
The light wings turned into light blades again, and the light blades condensed into two light cones that looked like large embroidery needles.
The light cones aimed at the heat-dissipating holes under the protection of the heavy armor and pierced in.
From the forehead to the cheeks, from the shoulders to the arms, and then to the ten fingers, countless mysterious and complicated runes appeared on the snow-white skin of the ice storm.
The runes spun and formed an incomparably gorgeous small-scale magic array. They overlapped and were pierced through by her arms.
Following the guidance of her ten fingers, they entered the light cone and were guided into the body of the Ankylosaurus.
The Ankylosaurus let out a mournful roar.
Its strange tail, which was originally as nimble as a tentacle, was stiff like a burnt tree branch.
Light shot out from both of its eyeballs.
It was the cone of light from the ice storm that pierced through this giant creature!
The armored dragon collapsed completely.
Ice Storm had also exhausted the power of the Holy Light.
Her body was filled with scratches and bite marks that were made by the Tusk Growler, as well as bruises from the impact of the Ankylosaurus.
The Tusk Growler’s roar was still echoing in her mind. It was like an invisible war hammer that continuously bombarded her soft brain.
She wanted to vomit.
However, she was not sure if what she vomited was her broken internal organs.
Therefore, she could only clench her teeth and endure the piercing pain. She staggered toward the tunnel where the dragon was released.
Then, she was bounced back to the center of the dungeon by an extremely hot and violent force. Her back hit the Ankylosaurus heavily.
Puff!
Ice Storm finally spat out the blood that came from her internal organs and the last bit of strength.
“Is this your limit?”
Casanova, who was wearing his totem armor, Lava’s Fury, which had thousands of years of history and had been blessed by countless fierce souls, appeared in front of Ice Storm with calm steps.
On the helmet and shoulder pads, three bull heads with blood-red eyes squeezed out an extremely hideous smile at the same time.
“I have to say, you have really exceeded my expectations time and time again. If I were really stupid enough to ‘compete fairly’ with you, I might really be defeated by your totem power and Holy Light power. They are two completely different but equally powerful forces contained in your body!”
Casanova raised his iron hooves that were as hard and heavy as war hammers high up and mercilessly stomped on Ice Storm’s chest. He enjoyed listening to Ice Storm’s ribs cracking under his own trampling. He smiled and said, “Fortunately, you are a vile spawn cursed by the true God and the ancestral spirit at the same time. For such a vile spawn, no one will pay attention to any rules, morality, or glory, right?”
Ice Storm groaned under Casanova’s iron hooves and spat out pink blood bubbles from her nasal cavity. She bit her lips hard and said with difficulty, “Kill, kill me.”
“Kill you?”
Casanova widened her eyes as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world.
“If you are just an ordinary vile spawn and the two powers in your body interfere with each other and become extremely weak and unstable, I will consider doing so.”
Casanova moved away the iron hooves that were stepping on Ice Storm’s chest and said with a smile, “However, you should be very clear about how valuable you are, right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have disguised yourself so exquisitely and not revealed too much of a flaw for two whole years.
“Killing you just like that is too much of a waste of God’s gift.
“Believe it or not, I don’t want to kill you. I’m willing to let you live, and I won’t even tell anyone your secret.
“The condition is, tell me, how did you do it? How can you use the power of totems and the power of Holy Light at the same time but not be affected or even devoured by the violent conflict between the two powers?”
Ice Storm finally understood Casanova’s intention.
“You want to monopolize my power?”
The snow leopard warrior laughed in a half-mocking and half-sorrowful manner. Her laughter caused her to cough, and she coughed out a large amount of pink blood.
“Stop dreaming. You can’t monopolize this power.”
Ice Storm said, “Because, I don’t know what kind of monster I am. If I knew how to control this power, you wouldn’t be stepping on me. I would have already dug your heart out with my claws!”
Casanova didn’t fall for the snow leopard warrior’s deliberate provocation to anger him and give her a quick death.
The highest commander of the Blood Skull Battle Group pondered for a moment, he nodded and said, “I believe you’re telling the truth. You really shouldn’t know what happened to you. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have stayed in the Blood Skull Arena for two years and wasted your time.
“Then, maybe we can explore the source of your power together. You should know something about your parents, right?”
Ice Storm narrowed her eyes and gritted her teeth.
“Why? Do you really think that I don’t know anything about your identity?”
Casanova slowly said, “If I’m not wrong, you didn’t grow up in the Gold Clan or even in Picturesque Orchid Lake as I said. You came from the land of Holy Light, right?”
“The land of Holy Light?” Ice Storm widened his eyes in astonishment.
“I admit that your disguise was indeed very clever, including that vivid tail. Almost everyone was fooled, but a fake is a fake. You still revealed a flaw in the end.”
Casanova smiled and explained, “Do you remember when we were chatting last time, when we mentioned the residents of the land of Holy Light, you used a contemptuous title to call them ‘the barbarians of the north?’
“Yes, the land of Holy Light is indeed north of Picturesque Orchid Lake.
“But usually, the advanced orcs wouldn’t use the term ‘barbarian’ to refer to the Holy Light humans.
“We like to call the Holy Light humans ‘naked rats.’ They have no hair and are very ugly, and they are as timid as rats.
“As for the term ‘barbarian,’ it is more popular amongst those in the land of Holy Light when calling the ice barbarians in the north.
“Since the Holy Light humans had more contact with the ice barbarians, even the word ‘barbarian’ in the Turan language was borrowed from the language of Holy Light.
“At that time, such a word suddenly popped out of your mouth, which made me slightly stunned and suspicious.
“Later, I sent people to Red-gold City to inquire about the news. The five clans were about to fight each other. Both the Blood Hoof Clan and the Gold Clan had to send a large number of messengers, caravans, and spies to the opposing clan to gather information about their biggest rival.
“It was not too much trouble to ask them to find out the information about the Snow Leopard Clan.
“In the end, an interesting thing happened. The Snow Leopard Clan did not have a female warrior who defected like you.
“You should know that, judging from the amazing potential and combat ability you’ve displayed in the Blood Skull Arena over the past two years, if you were really a member of the Snow Leopard Clan, you would definitely not be a nobody. You should be a genius who has been valued by the clan since you were young. Your defection should have caused a storm in the city, and everyone should know about it.
“When this piece of information was sent back to me, I kept trying to figure out what was going on.
“It was only recently that I finally figured out that the blood flowing in your body is not the blood of the Snow Leopard Clan but the blood of a cheetah or even a black leopard.
“It’s just that the influence of the power of Holy Light caused your appearance to appear in a rare ‘white’ state.. You became as white as snow and crystal clear, just like a snow leopard.”
