Acnologia also landed on Tenrou Island. It sensed the extraordinary nature of the person before it. It hadn't been injured for countless years, yet Chen Fan, who possessed no magic power whatsoever, had managed to injure it, although these wounds were now almost fully healed.
Seeing that Acnologia was almost unharmed, Chen Fan felt he had been too complacent. If he had reached LV5, everything would be fine, but with his current strength, he seemed unlikely to win. He hoped everyone would escape Tenrou Island quickly; he figured he could easily hold off Acnologia.
"Roar..." Acnologia roared at Chen Fan, its wings flapping towards Chen Fan, tearing the ground apart with the hurricane whipped up by the wings, sending countless flying sand and stones hurtling towards Chen Fan;
"Seriously, you're not even saying anything? Do you think you're some kind of monster if you're just going to yell? Don't be so arrogant!" Chen Fan shouted, stomping one foot on the ground and focusing all his energy on absorbing the kinetic energy of the earth's rotation. Of all the energy Chen Fan could access, the earth's kinetic energy was the greatest. Although Chen Fan couldn't convert as much as his Accelerator, Chen Fan wasn't completely powerless to use it; his former LV5 level wasn't something to be trifled with.
"...!"
Chen Fan directly blocked Acnologia's attack. Acnologia was taken aback when he saw that Chen Fan had blocked his attack. Taking advantage of Acnologia's momentary lapse in concentration, Chen Fan accelerated and quickly appeared in front of Acnologia, punching Acnologia in the head. Energy conversion involves losses, and if he could fight at close range, Chen Fan wouldn't choose ranged combat.
"...!"
"Boom...!...!" Acnologia's limbs gripped the ground as he was forced backward, carving two deep trenches in the earth. His wings sliced through the surrounding trees, and the entire island trembled. Acnologia hadn't expected Chen Fan to possess such power, even though he had absolutely no magic power. After finally neutralizing the impact Chen Fan had exerted on him, Acnologia looked up at Chen Fan, the instigator. He was going to kill the guy who had injured him in the most brutal way possible.
But just as he looked up, a laser beam shot towards him. It was too late to dodge; it seemed Chen Fan had precisely timed the moment he looked up. "Whoosh..."
"Ouch..."
The coin struck Acnologia directly in the eye, Acnologia to let out a painful scream. One of his eyes had been blinded by Chen Fan, and blood continued to gush from the corner of his eye.
Chen Fan had truly enraged Acnologia. A massive surge of magical power erupted around the black dragon, so powerful that even the clouds in the sky began to shift. The magic blew the ground around the dragon outwards, as if a hurricane had swept across Tenrou Island, causing the entire island to tremble. A bead of sweat trickled down Chen Fan's forehead. So this was the true strength of this guy? He was far stronger than in the anime.
Chapter Thirty-One: The Second Battle
(Old Ice will try his best to update the main text soon)
The black dragon Acnologia roared at Chen Fan, its magical power surging, with streams of black magical energy overflowing and swirling around its Acnologia;
"Roar..." Acnologia flapped its wings rapidly, and with a powerful push from its two hind legs, it charged towards Chen Fan at top speed;
As it reached Chen Fan, Acnologia swiftly swung its front paws down towards Chen Fan's head, intending to crush this Chen Fan with its claws.
"...!"
The magically enhanced forepaws swung with even greater force. Chen Fan raised his arms to block above, channeling the earth's energy into his arms with his feet. As he withstood the attack, the ground beneath Chen Fan feet began to shatter piece by piece.
Chen Fan began calculating the rebound force of the opponent's attack, but the magic added to it made it impossible to calculate fully. To do so, Chen Fan would first need to understand the nature of the substance, but the black dragon's magic was extremely complex and difficult to decipher. For a mage to have grown to this level, it was clear that magic was incredibly powerful.
Those who hadn't been fully calculated were all guided to the ground by Chen Fan, causing Tenrou Island to shake.
Chen Fan successfully blocked the attack. Realizing his calculations were incomplete, Chen Fan chose to abandon the attack and focus on making the best use of his available strength.
Just as Chen Fan blocked the attack, Chen Fan instantly struck Acnologia's claw again. The effect was minimal, but it did force Acnologia to retreat slightly. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Chen Fan accelerated and reached Acnologia's abdomen.
Attack where it's weak – this is Chen Fan's philosophy. Everything has a weakness, and Chen Fan's weakness is that his body isn't strong enough.
Acnologia hadn't expected Chen Fan to block the attack so easily and launch such a swift counterattack. Caught off guard, she was caught off guard and an opening appeared in his defenses.
Chen Fan punched Acnologia in the stomach. "Roar...!" The intense pain caused Acnologia to scream in agony, and her anger intensified.
The enormous tail lashed out at Chen Fan. Chen Fan had just struck Acnologia and hadn't even had time to react before being sent flying. However, Chen Fan had already programmed his body to automatically reflex during this battle; if he couldn't withstand the force, he could simply redirect it elsewhere.
However, Chen Fan underestimated the Black Dragon Acnologia's combat awareness. During the time Chen Fan was knocked away, Acnologia had already begun to brew magic in its mouth. You could tell what kind of move it was even with your eyes closed: the Black Dragon's Roar, was it?
Chen Fan had no intention of taking this attack head-on. Every Dragon Slayer Mage's Dragon's Roar was different, and Chen Fan hadn't even finished analyzing Acnologia's magical energy yet, so he didn't want to test the power of this attack.
Since he had already been knocked away, he still had momentum. Chen Fan instantly changed the direction of his momentum and landed on the ground. A destructive Dragon's Roar, like that of Edilio, swept over Chen Fan's head and landed on the distant sea.
