Chapter 1199: Chapter 181: The Glowing Bird Battles the Useless Dog (5400)_2
So, even if their battle shattered dozens of nearly hundred-meter tall buildings around them, turning the streets upside down, it was merely a spar.
“They hide many things, but they also reveal a lot.”
Ian didn’t mind, because in his eyes, even if they’re just probing, he could glean plenty of information.
It must be said, the Sunbird and World-Devouring War Wolf, these top-tier bloodlines, truly have unique aspects compared to other ordinary inheritances.
First and foremost, they possess absolute strength in terms of ‘advantages’.
The speed, attack power, and various optic-related techniques of the Sunbird have reached perfection; Aina Sertar’s assaults are swift and fierce, capable of launching seven or eight attacks before other Second Energy Level individuals can make their move—if this were a game, it would be like the Sunbird getting eight consecutive turns before the opponent even appears… What kind of wicked inheritance could possibly stop this?!
The World-Devouring War Wolf can! Easily can!
Aina didn’t use weapons; his strike was like a knife, slashing onto Gaer’s body, the Khan’s youngest son, directly tearing apart flesh that a cannonball couldn’t penetrate… yet following that, not a drop of blood splattered.
The werewolf boy’s shredded flesh writhed and rapidly regenerated, even during the attack, swiftly regenerating and proliferating, attempting to entangle Aina’s fists and feet with his own flesh, restraining this exceedingly fast divine bird.
Of course, Aina wouldn’t fall for this trap, but he knew that if he struck too often, Gaer would discern his attack rhythm and be ready, meaning the next moment he attacked would be the instant he got locked down.
And Gaer wasn’t without counterattack—World-Devouring War Wolf wielded the earth and furious winds, dominating vast grasslands and the azure sky, each assault accumulated power in his flesh, the surrounding air, and his feet, awaiting a threshold to unleash these stored forces with nine or even ten times the speed and power in a frenzy counterattack!
On the one hand, attacking until the opponent is dead initially; on the other, instantly healing when hit, sustaining attacks and stacking counter layers… Such unreasonable abilities are truly worthy of top-tier bloodlines!
So, if The Unyielding Fortress faced them, what then?
Ian briefly imagined, with the probing attack power Aina the Great Prince currently used, combined, it could probably… break through the first layer of his nine-layered armor.
As for Gaer’s tenfold counterattacks, maybe breaking through two or three layers?
At that point, it’ll be a matter of whether The Unyielding Fortress’s armor is robust and its recoil fierce, or if these people have higher attack power and rapid attack frequencies.
“Unless they bring out their ultimate skills, these people are unlikely to encounter my serious self.”
After assessing the combat abilities, Ian nodded slightly and commented, “The battle between Aina and Gaer isn’t just probing strengths, preparing for the real confrontation later… they’re also creating momentum, attracting allies from other exploration teams to gather.”
“Even we can see it; can other teams not? I guess these two are planning to join forces, collectively exploring the third layer of the ruins! And if one wins, they can use this victory to bolster their team and allies, gaining an upper hand in this ruins exploration!”
Anfa turned her head, asking Ian.
Although the team leader this time is, in name, Anfa from the Ashlight Family, a significant Elf Dragon Maiden in Canaan Moore and Dragon Worship Cult circles, but… would one not listen to the Prophet, what difference would that make to a fool who knows nothing?
Upon learning about Ian’s Prophet identity, Anfa instantly made the decision: before making any choice during this ruins exploration, she must consult Ian, obtain his approval before deciding!
Ian simply said: “Whichever side we join, that side will absolutely overpower the other, breaking the balance, also attracting more attention… Only when both sides are evenly matched can we exploit the chaos, gaining a greater prize.”
At this moment, Ian, who had just slightly turned his gaze away, immediately turned back, looking towards the direction of the battle.
He was somewhat surprised: “Initially, I thought a playful duel would get tiresome if prolonged, unexpectedly they’re fighting earnestly on both sides now…”
“Is that the Heart Light Body’s prototype?”
In the white-haired youth’s vision, Aina and Gaer’s figures began to blur, Spirit Energy and Origin Quality were flowing and merging around them.
Aina’s surroundings were swept by wave after wave of light like flowing water, furiously engulfing the vicinity within a hundred meters. A dazzling white light coalesced behind him, forming a halo resembling an angelic circle at the back of the Imperial Grandson’s head, pure white, rippling like water waves, shooting up towards the sky, each strand emanating scorching heat. An overwhelming, exalted sense of excitement surged forth, stubbornly revealing an inherent determination to step above the sky.
As for beneath Gaer, blazing shadows of blood continued to spread outwards; though shadows, the torrential blood within the air had already fused into the wind, like blades and swords, a single thread pulverized nearby boulders, swirling around him like the most terrifying storm. Yet, it subtly revealed a proud vitality, vigorous combat intent, seemingly intending to mature through bloodshed, evolve through battle, expunge rot with swords and blades, complete rebirth through slaughter and death.
