497 A hurricane that runs through the earth
I don't know how long it took, but the flames that raged in a corner of the palace gradually extinguished.
The corridor that had been a mess had been completely reduced to ruins, crumbling on a charred black earth, like the scene after the disaster.
"Haa——!a
Gawain, who had swelled to look like a giant, stood in the middle of the flame-entangled ruins, her eyes red, and the aura of extreme danger emanating from her body, causing her roar to turn into a storm and sweep in all directions.
And above this ruin, several figures fell to the ground scattered, moaning in pain.
"Hmm......"
Tristan struggled to get up, but tried again and again, but never managed to get up.
The princess-like dress on the fairy girl's body had been burned away, exposing her unexpectedly beautiful figure to the air, and her fair skin was scorched, apparently being caught up in Gawain's attack, and she was seriously injured.
"Ahem......"
Artoria struggled to get up, but succeeded.
Because of the relationship between the light clothes formed by [Fateful Dream] and [Tulle Breath] still shrouded in her body, although Artoria was also involved in Gawain's attack, most of the damage was blocked by the two layers of light clothes, and only a small part of it was applied to Artoria's body, so that she would not suffer as serious injuries as Tristan, but her body was a little shaky, and her clothes became tattered.
Lancelot disappeared, as if he had risen into the air in time to break through at the moment when Gawain's "horn" was swung down, and was out of Gawain's attack range.
As for Rieger, like Artoria, he is protected by [Fateful Dream] and [Tulle Breath], and there is also a layer of wind power on his body that can resist damage, plus he is resistant to fire attribute attacks, although he was also involved in Gawain's attack, and was still the main target targeted by the other party, but his injuries were not too serious, except for his pale face, he didn't seem to be affected more.
Such a Li Ge was naturally targeted by Gawain.
Rieger...... Briehout......! ”
Gawain, who was gradually expanding in size, seemed to have lost his reason, and while roaring angrily, he clenched the "horn" that turned into a flaming blade, and slammed it down without saying a word at Rieger, who was only knee-high.
"Boom !!"
The terrible flames erupted again, as if a real volcano were erupting, bursting out and raging throughout the audience.
Under the storm of flames, Tristan, whose clothes were burned all over his body, was blown away like garbage, and Artoria, who staggered to her feet, was almost swept into the explosion and blown away by the flames, until she hit a piece of rubble, and then stopped her body from flying upside down.
"Rieger......!"
Artoria struggled to her feet again, but soon fell limply again.
It's not just because of the injury, it's because the magic in Artoria's body was suddenly sucked away.
"W-What's going on?"
Artoria panicked.
She found that her magic had become completely uncontrollable, as if she had been devoured by an invisible beast, and was gradually being sucked away.
And this beast is the Gawain who has lost his rationality and is like entering a state of rage.
"She, she's absorbing my magic......
Artoria finally found out.
Absorbing magic power, this is actually not an ability that Gawain only has when he enters his current state.
In fact, Gawain has always had this ability, which can absorb the magic of enemies and absorb the magic of others, so that others can quickly lose their strength and become vulnerable in battle with themselves.
The reason why this ability did not show up against Rieg was not because Gawain did not use it, but because it was ineffective against Rig.
Lig, who can resist abnormal states and is immune to physical interference, perfectly resisted the opponent's abnormal ability to absorb magic in the battle with Gawain, making this ability useless.
Until now, Gawain's strength has suddenly skyrocketed, and her abilities seem to be out of control, not only against Riege, but also at the creatures around her.
Therefore, Artoria felt that her magic power was sucked away and became Gawain's power, making Gawain stronger and stronger.
"No ......!"
Artoria, who didn't know that Rig was able to resist this ability, whipped her body and forced herself to help Rig.
But before Artoria could stand up strongly, a voice rang out first.
"[Magic spear, through my skull, drink blood]."
In this low chant that seemed to sound from the ground, an astonishing force rose from the flames and soared into the sky.
"Breath of the Wind, Wanton Shape, Rise to the Dust!"
In the next second, a violent whirlwind burst out of the flames, as if it also rose into the sky, and while blasting away the flames, it turned into a wind blade and slashed at Gawain's body.
"Bang!"
The whirlwind blasted and exploded on Gawain's body.
"Knock knock!"
Gawain, who was hit by the whirlwind slash, suddenly retreated, and his heavy steps fell to the ground one by one, causing the ground to be trampled to pieces.
"Uh...... Ahh......h ”
Gao Wen, who was attacked, seemed to have entered a more violent state, and the "horn" in his hand increased a few points, like a pillar of fire, which swept towards the swordsman standing on the charred earth.
"Boom !!"
A deafening roar resounded throughout the Camelot, causing the flames to burst out of the palace for the third time, shaking the earth and the atmosphere.
Such an incredibly powerful attack, if it were faced by someone else, even if this person was Lancelot, would not be able to take it.
Unfortunately, it is a fire attribute, and it is an attack that can be resisted by Rige.
So, in the violent and raging storm of flames, Rig's wind-swept figure flew by at great speed and rushed out of it.
His eyes, like Gawain's, were red.
There was also a frenzy exuding from his body, but he was not as irrational as Gawain.
"Wind Breath, Seven Style, Strong Wind, Tengu Wind!"
Roaring past Gao Wen's body, Li Ge slashed suddenly, slashing out several tornado-shaped spiral wind blades, blasting towards Gao Wen.
"Bang Bang ——!"
With the bombardment of wind blades, Gawain couldn't stop the sudden retreat of his body.
"Boom !!"
The fierce beast that was aroused by the ferocity waved the "horn" in its hand even more violently, causing the flames to burst out one after another, and also causing the ground and everything around it to be ravaged and destroyed again and again, turning into a dangerous place that no one could approach.
In this dangerous place, Tristan has long been invisible, perhaps escaped with [Closing Mirror], or may have been buried by rubble, and may even have been shattered, and even the intact wreckage does not exist.
Artoria was inevitably swept up in the aftermath of the terrible attack, and if it weren't for a white meteor that suddenly swept through the sky and carried her away, she might have followed in Tristan's footsteps.
Only Lige, relying on the protection of magic such as [Wind Spirit Speed], [Fateful Dream], and [Tulle Breath], as well as his resistance to fire-attribute attacks, ignored his body scorched by the flames, and dodged the direct attack of the "Horn" at an astonishing speed, while hovering around Gao Wen's body at a rapid pace, flying in the sea of flames.
"[Magic Triple Enhancement: Now Broken]!"
Three slashes that cut through the space slammed into Gawain's body, breaking through Gawain's defenses, causing blood to splatter her chest, waist, abdomen, and side ribs one after another.
"[Magic Triple Enhancement: Ten Thousand Lightning Strikes]!"
Three thunderbolts that gathered countless thunderbolts fell from the sky and also hit Gao Wen's body, causing Gao Wen to bathe in the thunder in the sky, and was burned by the thunder and lightning, and black smoke came out of his body.
"[Magic Triple Enhancement: Brilliant Radiance]!"
"[Magic Triple Enhancement: True Darkness]!"
"[Magic Triple Enhancement Vermilion Nova]!"
"[Magic Triple Rank Ascension Magic Arrow]!"
Suddenly, one after another, magic arrays appeared near Gawain's giant body, spewing out large areas of light, blasting out abyss-like darkness, vermilion flames also rose from the ground, and countless light arrows burst out, bombarding Gawain's body one by one, bombarding her back again and again.
After the battle of Salisbury, Rieger's "Magic" and "Magic Chant" have both been upgraded, and they have been upgraded to a stage, plus the magic dress given by Morgan, after wearing it, it directly increases the power of the magic used by Rieger, thanks to this, Rieger's already powerful magic power has become much stronger.
Under such circumstances, when Rig has the ability to continuously release high-level, high-damage magic as if he has infinite magical power, it is conceivable how much damage these magic can cause.
Even though Gawain, as the highest-ranking goblin, has extremely high level of magic resistance, and is bombarded by the magic that is almost profligate by Rieg today, she is still inevitably blown up and her whole body is bursting with blood.
It didn't take long for Gawain's armor to become tattered, and a large amount of blood flowed from her body, staining her huge body red.
Rieger...... Briehout......! ”
The pain of the great hurt made Gawain wail and cause Gawain to rage.
As her size grew, she was the only one left in her eyes, and her rationality was completely lost, and she only relied on her fighting instinct to keep chasing Li Ge and waved the "horn" in her hand at him.
Compared to Rige's magic, Gawain's attack is the power that can be called devastating.
If it continues like this, it won't be long before the entire palace is reduced to ruins, right?
Able to see the consequences, Rig decided to make a big wave in his scarred state.
"Zheng!"
A red magic circle appeared at Rig's feet.
"Boom !!"
Sensing this sign, Gawain pursued it desperately, causing the flaming greatsword to crash to the ground, shattering the entire ground.
In the collapsed ground, the wind-swept Rig swept through the countless rubble, sometimes stepping over the falling debris, sometimes dodging and moving, his body agile and agile, as fast as if he had really turned into a gust of wind.
Then Rieg began to chant.
"[O proud warriors, O archers of the forest]."
This is a parallel chant.
This is also the wide-area annihilation magic of a certain elf girl who belongs to the Loki clan and has the title of [Thousand Elves].
Rig sang the magic as he flew through the collapsed terrain.
"Take up your bows before the advancing plunderers."
"[Respond to the voice of your compatriots, and set up an arrow to light the flames, the lights of the forest]."
"[Command you to release arrows, elven fire arrows]."
"[Rain rains down and burns the barbarians]."
A red magic circle floated beneath Rig's body and came behind him.
"[Magic Resistance Difficulty Enhancement - Volley Fire Javelin]!"
The magic that was synchronously enhanced by Rige was released at this moment.
"Buzz!"
The red magic array suddenly expanded extremely quickly and trembled.
Immediately, the rain of fire came.
"——!Bang bang
When the rain of fire swept out of the red magic array, turned into a barrage of cannonballs, flew out of the ground, and landed on Gawain's body, fierce explosions resounded through the sky one after another.
The rain of fire continued, bombarding all the time, shattering Gawain's armor and burning Gawain's huge body, so that this fairy knight, who had regained a little of his nature, seemed to be bombarded by overwhelming artillery fire, and his body rolled up with flames, and his mouth let out a howl of pain, and he was seriously injured.
[Volley Fire Javelin], although this is a magic that is slightly inferior to the [High Victory Sword], but it is both a wide area annihilation magic and a fire attribute, which is released by the current Lige, and the power is definitely far beyond the ordinary super magic or tactical magic, enough to turn a town into ruins.
To put it in layman's terms, the power of this blow and the damage it can bring are already beyond Gawain's "horn", so that Gawain finally couldn't bear it and fell to the ground that collapsed downward, becoming bloody.
"Whew-"
The wind blew in this instant.
Holding a sword as thin as a cicada's wing, the swordsman wrapped in the wind swept out of the collapsed ground and leaped high.
"Tempest."
The wind swept up the translucent blade, making it whistling.
"Tempest."
The storm turned into a storm, and the storm turned into a hurricane, turning the figure that had leapt into the sky into the god of the wind, completely disturbing the atmosphere within a radius of several kilometers.
The atmosphere roared and poured in, constantly joining the hurricane that hovered around the young swordsman, making the hurricane bigger and stronger.
In a few moments, the hurricane was large enough to cover the entire palace, blowing away countless rubble, sand, and flames.
Then, the hurricane crashed down.
"[Miniature Wind]!"
A giant hurricane that didn't match its name went straight into the ground, overturning rock formations and penetrating the ground.
Gao Wen, who fell to the ground, raised his head and looked at the hurricane assault that filled the entire field of vision, and his red eyes seemed to return to the light, and he regained a trace of clarity.
"Ah——!h
The elf knight, who roared hard, gave up his resistance and defense, as if unwilling to admit defeat, and as if he wanted to seize a fleeting victory at the last moment, the "horn" raised by him burst into flames far more fierce than any previous ones, and slammed into the figure in the hurricane.
The power of this blow was demonstrated by the rapidly evaporating atmosphere and the rapidly rising deadly heat in the moment it was unleashed.
If a hurricane falling from the sky collides with the flames that struck the earth, it is really difficult to predict who will be stronger or weaker in the end, and who will win and who will lose.
Rig, who is not in the strong attack flow mode and does not have outstanding strength, implements the tactics of the fast attack flow mode ——— avoid head-on collisions.
So, the hurricane that fell from the sky suddenly turned, and with its speed and agility, it was able to dodge the blow of flames that was enough to evaporate everything.
The flaming greatsword swept through, and the heat wave on it nearly swept away the hurricane, causing it to explode.
Fortunately, Rieger withstood it.
“————!”
Finally, Rieg shouted a name that only a few people knew.
“…………!”
Hearing that name, Gawain's expression changed sharply, and then, a flash of relief quietly appeared on his face full of madness.
"Poof!"
The hurricane roared, and the long sword, which was as thin as a cicada's wings, also carried the wind with the power of the wind, and pierced through Gawain's chest under the assault of Lige, who turned into arrows.
"Boom ———"
The ground crumbled and collapsed, eventually sinking completely, causing a huge crater to appear in front of the palace, as if it had been hit by a meteorite.
This pit may be a little smaller than the large cave that sits on the other side of the palace.
However, it was a battle between two people.
From this day on, all the elves who come to the palace will see this pit and think of the two powerful swordsmen who are as powerful as gods.
This will leave an unforgettable impression in their hearts until the destruction of the Fairy Kingdom of Britain.
…………
The shaking that ravaged the entire royal palace and even the entire Camelot finally slowly subsided.
"Is it over?"
Countless goblins hiding in the corner, protected by the soldiers, poked their heads out one after another, looking cowering and palpitating, and even became cautious when they spoke, looking extremely pitiful.
“…… It looks like it's over. ”
“…… Oh, yes. ”
Springagan and Aurora were among them, staring at each other with complicated expressions.
Not to mention Spriggan and Aurora, even Woodworth couldn't help but clench his fists.
The thought of the earth-shattering collision just now, even Woodworth couldn't help but have a slight palpitation.
And this annoyed Woodworth.
"Is this their strength, their real strength?"
Woodworth clenched his fists and growled.
"Damn!"
This is an unwilling roar that only occurs when you are ashamed of yourself.
Morgan didn't pay attention to Woodworth, just looked out, as if he could see the figure, and was speechless for a long time.
