This Is My Escape Route
It was a devastating blow; even the entire Zeus Familia and Hera Familia combined couldn't match its power.
It truly lives up to its reputation as a behemoth built with 25.6 billion Valis.
In reality, 25.6 billion is only a part of it; it's not even enough for energy alone, and Satella still needs to go to the deepest Dungeon to replenish her magic.
The real key lies in the blacksmith's millennia-long accumulation of knowledge; he dismantled the man-made maze to create the body.
Its entire body was made of the hardest metal, and coupled with the special nature of its Soul Materialization, even though the Black Dragon was hit by this blow, its head was knocked crooked.
"Roar!!"
The Black Dragon, somewhat bewildered, took a few steps back, then roared angrily.
However, Ming Ge didn't tolerate him. Taking advantage of the Black Dragon's inability to control its body, the huge Evangelion Unit-01 rushed up at an extremely fast speed and delivered a deliberate punch.
This blow shattered the Black Dragon's nose, spraying red blood everywhere, followed by a series of attacks.
At that moment, a tremendous wind pressure swept through, blowing the Zeus Familia and Hera Familia away, and then they used Flight Magic to levitate in the air.
"It's actually that strong..."
Not to mention the other members, even Elsa was momentarily stunned.
This is too powerful. It's not even in the same league as the other two adventurers' requests. They simply can't participate in a battle of this level.
The overwhelming onslaught stunned Black Dragon Hammer.
Just as Ming Ge was about to press his advantage, black wind erupted from the Black Dragon's body.
A terrifying gust of wind swirled around, causing Evangelion Unit-01 to lose its balance and stumble back a few steps.
However, it was precisely these few steps of retreat that allowed the Black Dragon to take flight.
"Wind?"
Ming Ge murmured, "Could it be Aria?"
Aria, Ais Wallenstein's mother, is a fairy.
Although that's the case, fairies don't actually have the ability to reproduce; perhaps they used some kind of secret method. Or perhaps "daughter" is just a metaphor, and more accurately, she inherited Aria's wind power.
A thousand years ago, the mercenary king Albert blinded one of the Black Dragon's eyes and severely injured it.
As a price, Aria and Albert were devoured by the Black Dragon.
Celestial spirits are not ordinary races, but rather avatars of gods, possessing potential abilities that are not found in the lower realms or even Dungeon.
After the Black Dragon devoured Aria, the One-Eyed Black Dragon not only gained the power of wind but also became even more powerful, which is why the two strongest beings in the world could not participate in a battle of this level.
If this had happened a thousand years ago, they probably could have easily defeated them on their own, which shows how vast the difference in strength was.
"This is troublesome."
Ming Ge murmured to herself, then controlled Evangelion Unit-01 to take flight.
Compared to the others, Ming Ge was extremely skilled in Flight Magic.
Perhaps it should be called Flight Flash Step Magic?
"The Spear of Longinus"
Evangelion Unit-01 pulled a huge red harpoon from the markings within its body, then accelerated as it flew into the air before stabbing straight ahead.
Even the members of the two major clans hadn't expected that the incredibly heavy Evangelion Unit-01 would actually take off successfully.
"Boom!!"
The Black Dragon had no time to dodge, but instead spewed out terrifying flames from its mouth.
A golden rock-elemental protective shield took shape, and Evangelion Unit-01 blocked the flames while its harpoon pierced the Black Dragon's belly.
Even though Evangelion Unit-01 was forged from orogen and possessed the property of Soul Materialization, it still could not directly withstand the Black Dragon's flames.
Let alone orthogonal, even non-corrosive metals would melt.
Unfortunately, the Black Dragon reacted quickly, and the attack only damaged Black Dragon wings, but that was enough.
Blood splattered from the massive dragon wings, and the Black Dragon plummeted to the ground with a mournful howl.
Boom!!
A terrifying roar resounded as Evangelion Unit-01, wielding a harpoon, soared downwards. The immense impact and the harpoon's penetrating power successfully pierced through the Black Dragon's scales.
Unfortunately, the attack failed to hit the opponent's magic stone.
Even though the opponent had been severely injured, they were not yet dead.
"It's incredibly resilient... Evangelion Unit-01 is really something else."
Ming Ge's lips slowly curled up, and without even bothering to remove the harpoon, he swung his fist and pounded it down in circles.
The Black Wind reappeared, attempting to force Ming Ge back, but this time it was blocked by Ming Ge using Shockwave.
Blood and scales, along with bits of flesh, splattered all around. Even as the Black Dragon continued to wail, Ming Ge showed no intention of stopping.
Punch after punch, the extreme violence stunned even the world's strongest fighters.
"Roar!!"
The Black Dragon roared once more, its fiery breath merging with the wind, piercing through Evangelion Unit-01's Phase Shift Magic.
The surface of Evangelion Unit-01 melted rapidly, and the gold-plated markings disappeared. Under this unexpected attack, Evangelion Unit-01 was forced back once again.
"Crush it!"
Evangelion Unit-01 completely overwhelmed the Black Dragon, but it wasn't entirely unscathed.
The Black Dragon recovered, its injured wings rendering it unable to fly, but Black Dragon body itself was a powerful weapon.
Moreover, Evangelion Unit-01's agility in the sky far surpasses that of the Black Dragon. Given the Black Dragon's intelligence, the two consecutive attacks have made it extremely cautious.
Cautious yet tyrannical, with red light flashing in its eyes, the Black Dragon roared and charged straight at the enemy.
Evangelion Unit-01 and the Black Dragon clashed, and this time they were evenly matched.
"Too hasty."
