Chapter 80: Just Let Me Touch You Once

Scorching magma began to surge from the bottom of the ravine, the dragon's head looking particularly terrifying against the backdrop of dark clouds.

But Viktor's powerful aura seemed to transform into a calamity beast, even more dominating.

On both sides of the ravine, searing flames constantly rose, enveloping the lightning.

Bursting pillars of flame and bolts of thunder clashed, evenly matched.

[Fire Calamity - Scorching Earth]

Cocotte stood stunned at the surrounding anomalies:

As a nature elf, Cocotte was very familiar with calamity beasts.

Strictly speaking, they weren't magical beasts.

As embodiments of the world's natural elements, they gradually developed their own consciousness during a long process of transformation.

Wind, thunder, earth, water - nature had corresponding incarnations for each.

Only calamities possessed the ability to change the natural environment.

Cocotte was completely bewildered.

Why? Why could Viktor use power similar to a calamity?

He couldn't be a calamity's illegitimate child, could he?

Nature elves revered and feared nature.

Because nature elves' magic power needed a natural environment to be released.

And abilities like calamities that could affect nature were, in a sense, the fathers of nature elves.

Cocotte suddenly rolled her eyes, pondering.

She shouldn't have offended Viktor just now, right...

She should have been more polite.

Cocotte fidgeted with her fingers, looking very nervous.

Suddenly, she saw Aurelianne watching the battle not far away.

Cocotte kicked the cloud under her feet and floated towards Aurelianne.

When she floated to Aurelianne's side, she no longer looked drowsy, and sheepishly tried to strike up a conversation with the princess.

"Can I ask, your teacher... what's his background?"

Aurelianne glanced at her without answering, instead taking a few steps away from her.

Seeing Viktor's student distance herself so much, Cocotte suddenly felt that even sleeping wouldn't be enjoyable anymore.

She had almost forgotten, the young girl couldn't speak.

Helpless, she could only turn her head back to watch this epic battle again.

Every mage in Endymion knew what kind of existence the Storm Dragon King was.

It had slumbered for years in the deep abyss of the Storm Land, the most powerful being in this ravine.

Even ordinary fourth-tier mages wouldn't dare to easily engage it in battle without absolute confidence in victory.

Not all mages could change the surrounding environment like Viktor. Under the original enhancement of the Storm Land, it would be even more dangerous.

Or rather, it was because of the Storm Dragon King's presence that this place became the Storm Land.

Add to that the wild and chaotic magic flow within the Magic Ravine, which would further restrict mages.

This sudden appearance of the Storm Dragon King was also unexpected for Cocotte.

There usually wouldn't be conflicts between the Storm Dragon King and mages.

Mages only needed to pass through the Magic Ravine, and those magical beasts weren't under the Storm Dragon King's jurisdiction. It merely slumbered here as a manifestation of powerful magic, without much excess consciousness.

Without active provocation, it wouldn't attack others on its own.

Viktor's appearance, that violent calamity aura, made the Storm Dragon King sense the presence of a powerful enemy.

With the environment and terrain changed, the Storm Dragon King considered Viktor an invader of its territory.

But before Viktor, who had transformed into a humanoid calamity, the Storm Dragon King was nothing more than a giant insect.

Cocotte shook her head. The calamity could change even the chaotic aura all at once; the Dragon King was likely to be in trouble this time.

The Dragon King felt the scorching lava fall on its giant claws, let out a huge roar, and actively charged towards Viktor.

Those giant claws, carrying ten thousand thunderbolts, rushed fiercely towards Viktor, with a sky-covering momentum that broke through the clouds.

The high-speed sharp claws arrived in front of Viktor in just a few seconds.

"Oh no! Too fast!"

Cocotte saw that Viktor was already in danger, but it was too late to warn him now.

The Storm Dragon King's speed exceeded her imagination.

However, the movement of the giant claws seemed extremely slow in Viktor's eyes.

He could clearly see even the constant trembling of the ten thousand thunderbolts surrounding the dragon's claws.

This tale has been unlawfully lifted from Royal Road. If you spot it on Amazon, please report it.

With his hands in his pockets, in these few seconds, it was as if the world had been slowed down hundreds of times.

Finally, after one second.

The giant claw above Viktor's head descended one centimeter.

Sensing the approaching danger, the iron cards on Viktor's body suddenly burst forth.

Cocotte and Aurelianne stood together, staring up at the sky as if facing a great enemy.

They hadn't realized that the flash of cold light that had burst forth was already close to the giant dragon claw.

In an instant, the flying cards split into hundreds, slicing across the Storm Dragon King's limbs, fiercely piercing its joints.

Completely severing its magical limbs.

As a collection of magical power, the Storm Dragon King didn't actually have a physical body.

Those bodies were just products born from the collection of magical power.

The hundreds of cards suddenly burst into dazzling light, red and green complementing each other.

The flames burning the sky suddenly entwined around the Storm Dragon King's body, and those giant vines also began to constantly restrain the Dragon King's movements. The numerous branches and green leaves became even more scorching hot under the effect of the flames.

Hundreds of flying cards continuously cut towards the Dragon King, like a veritable meat grinder of magical power.

Before that vast collection of magical power could offer more resistance, the Storm Dragon King's body gradually became smaller and smaller until it disappeared.

Aurelianne's eyes widened, filled with admiration.

Her teacher was so strong!

So strong that even the sky-covering Dragon King was no match for Viktor.

As for Cocotte.

She almost fell to her knees.

Those eyes with barely noticeable dark circles stared at Viktor in disbelief.

However, the Storm Dragon King wasn't dead yet.

"It's not over yet. In this Magic Ravine, the Dragon King's body will quickly reassemble."

As soon as the words were spoken, the sky full of dark clouds once again flashed with lightning and rumbled with thunder. The magical power materialized as lightning gradually gathered in the air, veins, bones, and skin rapidly reconstructing the Storm Dragon King's body.

The next second, the Dragon King wrapped in lightning reappeared, its momentum even stronger than before.

The Storm Dragon King's health bar and level gradually appeared in Viktor's eyes.

Lv40

Viktor knew very well that the Storm Dragon King's strength wasn't particularly powerful. Its special feature was that it could endlessly revive using infinite magical power.

Cocotte said the Storm Dragon King couldn't be killed because Endymion's mages had never seen it die.

But Viktor knew clearly that the Storm Dragon King could be annihilated.

As a player, he had to kill the Storm Dragon King many times every time he passed through the Magic Ravine.

In Viktor's eyes, this was just a large experience-giving monster.

The Storm Dragon King's revival time, behavioral patterns.

He knew them all like the back of his hand!

"Well then, I just need to kill you until you can't regenerate with magic anymore."

As the hundred iron cards returned to Viktor's side, hundreds of magic arrays suddenly formed behind him.

Those magic arrays, like the surface of a lake, gradually began to tremble. The runes and patterns were already uncountable, and overwhelming fire magic suddenly poured out.

In the environment created by Viktor, Cocotte could see that all the magic Viktor was using was second-tier magic.

But the power had reached the level of third-tier magic.

"Is this... the Fire Calamity?"

That fire magic seemed about to completely engulf the ravine the next second.

Seeing this, Cocotte hurriedly pulled Aurelianne into the cloud to prevent her from being affected by this terrifying magic.

Terrifying scorching white light filled the ground, and astonishing flames illuminated the entire Reia Ravine.

Perhaps even the Reia Ravine hadn't expected to have such a brilliant moment one day.

The high temperature softened the rocks, burning them in mid-air.

The Storm Dragon King, having just reconstructed its body, was once again bombarded to the point where it couldn't fight back.

In the blink of an eye, its body shattered again.

"This... how long has it been!?"

Cocotte stood dumbfounded.

Was the Storm Dragon King this weak? How did it seem to be beaten without being able to fight back at all?

The next second, the storm reassembled again, but Viktor was already prepared. Even before the Storm Dragon King's body was fully restored, iron cards flew across, sealing and shattering its body once more.

The third time, the fourth time...

Its revival speed became slower and slower. The surrounding ravine had been bombarded by Viktor to the point of severe damage, on the verge of collapse.

The bottom of the ravine gradually fell into silence, the intense hurricane had dissipated, leaving only heat waves constantly trembling in the air.

Cocotte watched this scene, feeling Viktor's unparalleled destructive power.

No wonder Viktor had the confidence to provoke this Storm Dragon King. After fighting for so long, she hadn't even seen the Storm Dragon King use any skills.

It was one-sided, complete domination!

Under Viktor's relentless attacks, the Dragon King would be instantly shredded each time it revived.

Countless gatherings of magical power, countless revivals.

Over and over again, one hour, two hours... the result never changed.

The ravine was beaten into pieces of stone, turning into constantly decaying ruins. Countless flying iron blades whirled around the Dragon King's half-formed body, cutting into it again.

Soon, a flash of lightning suddenly illuminated, like an explosion, like a breakdown.

As the dust gradually settled, there was no sign of the Storm Dragon King reviving again.

"Is it... dead?"

The Storm Dragon King was dead?

She had never seen such a simple and easy battle.

It was as if Viktor had calculated everything - the Storm Dragon King's revival position, how much attack it should endure.

Not too much, not too little, just right, able to kill it directly each time.

She poked her head out of the cloud a little, feeling that the surrounding heat was already unbearable for ordinary people.

"This temperature... it's terrifying."

This kind of fire magic was definitely not something a normal mage could release.

Cocotte thought that Viktor must have made some kind of deal with the Fire Calamity.

She was half right, because this violent fire magic was something Viktor had forcibly stripped from Gulleton.

The Fire Calamity had already been sealed by Viktor once.

The calmed violent thunder gradually converged, forming a lightning core glowing with brilliant white light.

Viktor reached out, and the core, as if recognizing its master, floated into Viktor's hand.

[Storm Dragon King's Gene]

[Description: A mysterious gene containing the power of ancient dragons, perhaps it could be combined with ancient dragons.]

He looked at this core, feeling very satisfied.

The lava coat also returned to calm, the red patterns gradually hiding, and the giant beast eyes on the coat also retreated back into hiding.

Cocotte, very curious, came closer, getting very near, and tentatively asked:

"Do you have some kind of relationship with calamities?"

Viktor turned his head and gave her a cold look.

"I've killed a calamity before, do you believe me?"
