(81) Catastrophe (Yufi Stanmitz, VII)

The sky turned into thick ink in an instant, and the spells used for lighting had already collapsed in the attack just now, and if the torches were not extinguished, they were suppressed by the magic around them, and the light that was not bright quickly dimmed until it disappeared completely. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 Info mixed with rumbling thunder, purple lightning that streaked through the air from time to time, was the only visible light source at the moment.

Yuffie heard Lynn's suppressed exclamations, and Noka's angry curses. Grace, on the other hand, lost all sound from the moment she hit the ground.

She forced herself to stay calm, gesturing in the dark as fast as she could, casting all sorts of protective spells on herself. She trusts Lynn and Noka in their ability to keep themselves safe, not to mention the stars—and as for Grace, even if it is badly wounded, if she defeats the enemy as soon as possible, she is sure that she can use Edda's power to save her life.

The premise is to be able to defeat the "enemy".

Yuffie understands that they have made a mistake, and it could be fatal.

Since coming to the Far East, none of the youkai they have encountered can be called powerful, and it can even be said that with their strength, they are enough to easily deal with most of them. You'er did cause some trouble to the two, but it was only trouble. As for Pfister, or the "Ahsan" of Lily of the Valley Village, from the very beginning, she did not see the other party as a person from this continent.

Unconsciously, she forgot what Jill had said that in the past, this continent was ruled by powerful monsters, and humans could only survive by attachment.

The result of her and Lynn's unwarranted self-confidence, combined with the fact that the Gernor man, who may not have been born with a fear of what it was—otherwise, would not have crashed here in that 'plane'—was that they had found a far more formidable opponent than they were.

Yuffie cast several protective spells from his memories in one go, then summoned an even more powerful source of magical light, barely dispelling the darkness around him. Almost as soon as the light lit up, a dark purple bolt of lightning fell from the sky and slashed straight above her head.

The lightning exploded into countless tiny electric snakes, sliding into the ground along the transparent ellipsoid that enveloped her, now reflected blue-purple. Even so, the girl still felt that the hairs on her whole body stood on end, and there was a scorched breath from her nose, as if some of her hair had been burned.

With the help of lightning and the light she lit, Yuffie looked up and caught the figure soaring through the sky.

It was a majestic and massive creature, about thirty meters long, perhaps more. His whole body was as black as ink, with long black beards fluttering around his head, and his eyes radiated a striking red glow. The thick body shaped like a python is neatly arranged with obsidian-like solid scale armor, like a smooth mirror.

He had no wings, but he soared and circled in the air with ease, as if gravity had no effect on him. A sense of oppression close to substance permeated the space, making him more massive and frightening than the impression he had visually.

The beast swung its sharp talons from the front of its body. The magic converged on the tip of the claw in an instant, then turned into an invisible turbulence, dispersing the many protective spells that Yuffie had imposed on him.

"Dragons." Yuffie muttered.

This is the dragon clan of the Far Eastern Continent. Adult, far more powerful than Lynn. At the same age, wizards do have a chance to defeat dragons that have long lives but grow slowly. The problem is that the creature in front of you is very likely to have lived for hundreds, or even thousands of years.

There was a blasting sound in the air. The rune weapon in Noka's hand spewed out several rays of light and sparked, hitting the body of the giant beast, but it failed to penetrate the opponent's gold-solid scales. The dragon glanced over there, not bothering to pay attention to the little Gurnor.

"Starry sky." She shouted to the puppet girl not far away, "Help us if you can!" ”

The puppet girl shook her head, an apologetic look in her eyes, "This body doesn't have combat components, sorry - and come on, Yuffie." ”

Time never waits, and neither does the enemy. The black dragon lowered its head and opened its fierce and majestic mouth, and a purple streamer converged from the long whiskers on both sides, targeting Yuffe's location.

She knew what she needed to do. A short teleportation spell, or a force field wall that is tough enough, will allow her to survive the hit. However, the dragon's gaze seemed to freeze air, and she tried to lift her hand, but it felt like her arm was filled with lead.

Not only that, but the terrifying gaze froze her mind as well, and all the prepared countermeasures, and the mystical theories she had studied, ceased to exist at this moment, leaving only a blank in her mind-

Yuffie looked up and watched the dark purple light rush across her face.

She didn't feel any pain coming from her body, not even the sensation of being hit. Her thoughts slowly resumed flowing, and she lowered her head, and not far in front of her was Rin, curled up in a ball, already unconscious—it was she who used herself to block the black dragon's blow for Yufe at the moment of life and death.

This may be the second time, Yuffie thought to himself. At this time, her mind was unusually calm. In just a flash of thought, she judged that her friend was not lightly injured, but there was no danger to his life for the time being. In this way, only she and Noka were left to fight the enemy in front of them.

Yuphie had heard Lynn say that the dragon's breath was quite physically demanding. Even an adult dragon would need a few breaths after that before another attack of the same kind could be brewed. That means they still have a chance to fight back.

Just in the next dozen seconds.

She tried to find Noka's location, and soon spotted the figure floating in the air. Despite the howling wind overhead, and the occasional lightning and thunder, the Gernor wings held up.

Two streamlined metal cones shot out of Noka's hand, dragging a dazzling tail flame straight into the black dragon's head. Unfortunately, it was still in vain, and the dragon easily swept up the wind, causing them to turn around and explode harmlessly in the air.

She narrowed her eyes and saw Noka raise her hand in the direction of the black dragon as she shouted something. The surrounding voices were muffled by the wind, and she couldn't hear the other person's words at all, but she could guess what the other person wanted.

Allow yourself to create an opportunity for him to use a 'special tool' – something the Guerno had mentioned in his previous discussion with Lynn, whom he called "the last and most exciting option".

"I won't let you underestimate you, dragons of the East." She muttered to herself, raised her hand, and began to cast a complex spell.

The obscure incantation slowly spat out from the girl's mouth, and beads of sweat quickly appeared on her forehead. The black dragon seemed to notice something, and its body turned around in the air for half a circle, and the tip of the claw flowed a flash of electric light again.

The lightning slammed into Yufie's chest, exploding dazzling sparks that sent her flying backwards. The pain pierced Yuphie's body, and she felt as if she was deaf, her eyes blurred, and a warm sweet smell came from her throat. But at the same time as being struck by lightning, she had already completed her spell.

There was a ripple in the sky, and the dragon's position distorted for a moment, and then the creature vanished in place.

"It's ...... Lost ...... The secondary version ......" Yuffie struggled to make a sound, even though she knew that Noka could barely hear, "only to take effect...... Hurry up and ...... in a short time."

She vaguely saw a small figure fly towards the place where the dragon had been—thinking that Noka understood what he had done. She tried to stay awake, silently counting the time that had passed in her mind, even if her head hurt and cracked.

"One, two, three...... Nine, ten—"

After a greatly downgraded "Lost Lock", it only trapped that creature for ten seconds. The dragon reappeared in Fang Cai's place, letting out a thunderous moan, as if he was extremely angry that he had been placed in a human position.

The head turned downward, and the coercion of the superior race made the girl no longer willing to resist - not to mention that in her current state, not even a simple spell could be accomplished.

With his focus on Yuphie, the dragon ignored the little man who was getting closer and closer to him.

The storm suddenly calmed down, and this time, Yuffie could hear what the Gernor people were saying.

"Long live Alphonse." Noka Bulb Main shouted in a voice full of frenzy and excitement as he rushed under the dragon's head, "Long live the Gernorians." On his body, an unstable mass of magic was getting stronger and stronger, "Long live rune technology!" ”

With that small figure as the center, the light, heat, and sound from the void exploded outward, filling the entire space in an instant.
