Chapter 498
Having devised a plan, Adam retrieved his warhammer and used its broad, thick head to parry.
The Lightning Rush struck the warhammer, whose surface was also covered with a magic array for defense.
The two energies clashed, and the resulting magical aftershocks rippled outwards in the form of waves and turbulence.
"You've got some skills, kid. I underestimated you. But that won't change the outcome; your fate will be the same as that little girl's thirty years ago! Heh... hahahaha—"
Noa remained silent.
She didn't know who the 'child from thirty years ago' that the mad dragon kept talking about was.
But you could tell from his smug tone that this guy had absolutely no psychological burden about torturing and killing children.
This reminded Noa of an enemy her Dad had once fought against.
In the Far North, Noa and several classmates fell into the hands of that man, but he said that the proud Dragon King would not vent his anger on children.
This is worlds apart from the mad dragon wielding a hammer in front of him.
Noa shook her head slightly, trying not to think about anything else, and focused on the battle in front of her.
The Lightning Rush they had just accumulated had been used up, but they still couldn't determine who was superior to Adam.
"It's impossible that Lightning Rush in its primordial state didn't cause any damage... There's something wrong with his hammer. Logically speaking, no weapon can withstand a full-blown attack from the Primal Power."
The old ancestor murmured, his thoughts seemingly drifting back to the past.
"Throughout history, there has probably only been one kind of magic that could withstand my Primal Power."
"I'd love to hear your explanation, but now's not the time. You say magic won't work, so let's go straight for physical combat," Noa immediately decided.
"Yes, the Primal Power will greatly enhance your senses, physical functions, and self-healing abilities. But please still be careful."
"Clear."
Noa gathered her Magic Power and focused it all on her bones and meridians to enhance her upcoming physical attacks.
Nine Hells, Second Gate, Blood Boil.
Her body no longer supports her forcibly opening the fourth door in the original mode.
But the second door is enough.
After adjusting her posture, Noa leaned forward slightly, pushed off with her right foot, and shot out like a cannonball.
The white figure suddenly appeared in front of Adam in the blink of an eye.
Adam was also somewhat surprised by her speed.
"So fast... but not fast enough!"
Noa clenched her right fist and swung it down forcefully.
At such close range and at such high speed, Adam couldn't possibly have had time to block with his hammer.
But Warhammer Dragon King was also a seasoned veteran. He immediately released his hammers and crossed his arms in front of him, using the point of intersection to block Noa's powerful punch.
And so, an exaggerated scene unfolded:
Despite being dozens of times different in size, the larger one was knocked back more than ten meters by the smaller one with just one punch.
Adam's feet left two long 'brake marks' in the mud.
"Damn it... how can someone possess such power?"
"Surprised? You're about to be even more surprised, you big oaf."
As soon as she finished speaking, Noa vanished, transforming into a white bolt of lightning that flashed and darted about.
Upon seeing this, Adam took several steps back.
The punch he just received had already put him on guard; if he were to combine it with that incredible speed... he might—
Thump! ——
While he was thinking, Noa's attack came.
A roundhouse kick landed squarely on Adam's shoulder.
"You wretched brat!!"
Adam roared and reached out to grab Noa.
Without pausing after her attack, Noa vanished in a flash.
The next attack could come from who-knows-where.
With the Primal Power, Noa's speed and attack power were indeed different from before, and she was able to suppress Adam for a short time.
And this is merely the tip of the iceberg of the power of our ancestors.
I really can't imagine how powerful the Primal Dragon King would be at his peak.
A storm of attacks rained down on Adam.
Each blow was heavier than the last, each strike more powerful than the last.
Adam's strong body could withstand such attacks, but his proud pride would not allow him to be beaten up like this by a brat.
He is a pure Dragon Race, and once his anger is ignited, it is uncontrollable.
"Little brat... don't get too cocky!!"
Adam suddenly unleashed astonishing power.
Black magical energy emanated from her body, blasting Noa away.
Noa adjusted her body in time, landed, and looked at Adam in front of her.
The mad dragon also underwent some changes.
A deep, dark power surged around him, and the chilling aura emanating from him sent a shiver down Noa's spine.
"What is that?" Noa asked in a deep voice.
"Do you remember what I just said? There is only one power throughout history that can withstand my Primal Power?"
"Hmm, so that's what Adam is using now?"
"The Chaos Power".
The old ancestor's face darkened. "Looks like our luck isn't so good. Noa, this guy with the hammer has already connected with 'Ultimate Fear.' We have to deal with him here; we can't let him escape, otherwise—"
"Otherwise, the ultimate fear would know our secret, wouldn't it?"
"That's right."
"Okay, let's do it again!"
Noa was recuperating, but just as she was about to take a step forward, she suddenly felt a sharp pain throughout her body.
It felt like my bones were being run over by a horse-drawn carriage.
She staggered and fell to the ground, coughing up a mouthful of blood.
"Your body has reached its limit, Noa."
"It's okay... I can, I can hold on a little longer."
Noa struggled to her feet. The Primal Energy around her had weakened considerably, and her white eyeshadow had faded a bit.
Adam naturally witnessed this scene.
"Ha, every way to gain power temporarily in this world comes at a price, and you are no exception, brat."
Adam spoke as he slowly walked over.
He raised his hand, spread his fingers, and faced Noa with his palm.
"Now, I won't let you die a quick and painless death."
As soon as she finished speaking, four huge black cubes appeared in the four directions around Noa.
She looked around, wanting to escape the encirclement of the cube.
Unfortunately, Adam was faster.
He clenched his fists tightly, and the four cubes converged on Noa from different directions.
Boom!!--
"Noa!!"
The tiny figure was sandwiched in the middle of the cube. Helena cried out in fear, but there was no response.
"Chaos Magic... Great Dark Heaven... Black Dragon Scale are indeed useful."
Adam sneered, "In the seal of the Great Dark Heaven, you will slowly turn into a pile of bones and blood. Kid, don't be that guy's daughter in your next life. Your current fate is all his fault."
"You're not allowed to..."
From within the seal came the angry voice of a young girl.
Adam was startled. "W-what—"
"You are not allowed to insult my father!"
Click! Click!
Cracks appeared on the surface of the sealed cube, and white light burst out from beneath the cracks.
The next second, the Great Dark Heaven, infused with the Chaos Power of the Black Dragon Scales, was directly dispersed by Noa's magical energy.
Lightning flashed, the primordial energy erupted, and the dazzling light dispelled the thick fog and gloom.
However, this surge of power to break through the seal was already her limit.
In the light, the petite figure could no longer hold on and collapsed forward.
Upon seeing this, Adam immediately grabbed the warhammer beside him and rushed towards Noa.
"You're finally dead, you damn brat!!"
He rushed toward Noa, who had fallen to the ground, his hands gripping the hammer handle tightly.
"Noa! Noa, stand up!!"
Helena called out, trying to get up and run to Noa's side, but her injured ankle gave her no strength.
She sat on the ground in despair, tears finally streaming down her face.
"Save her... Someone please save her... Please, I beg you..."
"Die! Die! Die, you weak thing!!"
The cold warhammer crashed down on Noa, and amidst Helena's desperate screams, the world seemed to freeze in that moment—
"What... did you do to my daughter?!"
"Adam, I'm going to chop you into mincemeat!!"
Lightning and Fire Falling from the sky, carrying the anger of the fathers.
67 You've been a corpse for a long time (3,000 words)
Just before the hammer struck Noa, Leon arrived just in time, descending from the sky like a divine warrior.
Seizing the opportunity, Leon stomped his feet directly on the warhammer in Adam's hand, the powerful impact driving the entire hammerhead into the ground.
Immediately following, he turned and delivered a side kick, sparks flying through the air, a swift and powerful strike landing mercilessly on Adam's shoulder.
The monster gripped its hammer handle tightly, intending to pull it out.
But with Leon's kick, even if he held on tightly, he had no choice but to let go; otherwise, both of his arms would probably have been torn off.
Adam was kicked dozens of meters away, his shoulder aching terribly, and his feet left two long skid marks on the ground.
After regaining his balance, Adam clutched his right shoulder, which was almost dislocated, and stared intently at the human in front of him with his single, scarlet dragon eye.
"This is the guy 'Shadow' was talking about... He truly lives up to his reputation."
A simple side kick, the power of which can only be truly understood by the person being kicked.
The Great Way is Simplicity; they don't need any unnecessary frills.
"Ha, you sneak attacker, if you've got the guts, face this King head-on!"
