Fire Sac?
Dorian, whose body was almost as thin as a dried-up husk, was immediately sent flying by this powerful punch.
He traced a graceful arc in the eyes of Sai Ke and Qiao Ke La before crashing heavily to the ground.
"Aww!"
The newly arrived demon roared, flexing his muscles as if to show off. He was the epitome of a big, dumb brute, and seemed to have little sense of reason.
Even in his madness, Dorian seemed to retain more wisdom in his eyes than this guy. Generally speaking, such irrational demons are probably born through that process.
That is, the Fallen Devil Egg.
"Ouch!"
The demon roared and turned its gaze to Sai Ke. With a sudden burst of strength, it leaped into the air with its short, thick legs, and its oversized arms looked like they were about to crash down.
"Bastard!"
Dorian's angry voice came from the side. He instantly transformed into a streak of fire and rushed into the air, slapping the demon's chest.
His palm cracked open, and scorching flames erupted instantly. The powerful impact caused the demon to be burned to a crisp and fall to the ground in the blink of an eye!
"That's—" The sharp-eyed Qiao Ke La suddenly noticed something; she realized where Dorian's flames were coming from.
It wasn't from the burning of fire-attribute magic; those flames had nothing to do with magic. Rather, it was as if Dorian had developed fire-breathing organs within his body, which was how he was able to utilize the flames!
A fire-breathing organ? What kind of creature would have such a thing? Even Red Wyvern that is skilled in fire can only breathe fire by manipulating magic.
It is well known that the offspring of demons will possess characteristics of the creatures their parents have eaten, but some demons also have a chance to acquire the traits of the food they eat.
During his time living with the Light Eagle Legion, Dorian tried many things that he couldn't do on the Demon Continent, such as...
The meat of the monster [Aknosom] from the Forest Area.
His body seemed to have some kind of strange reaction with the Aknosom's body, causing a peculiar organ from the Monster Hunter universe to grow inside his body— the Fire Sac.
In layman's terms, Fire Sac is an organ filled with flammable dust, a common hunting material for hunters. The Fire Sac created by Dorian mutated from the original, eventually becoming the one he can now control with fire.
Amazing! The monsters in the Zane Dungeon can actually induce a new evolution in the demon race!
Thanks to the demon race's ability to control their bodies at will, Dorian can open up any part of his body and ignite flammable dust inside, which will then erupt from various parts of his body!
This completely solved the version's flaw of the Demon race lacking elemental attacks!
If he were lucid, Dorian would realize the immense value of the Zane Dungeon. Unfortunately, he's gone mad now, even believing that the mutated Fire Sac within him is a power bestowed upon him by the Frenzied Flame, though he doesn't even understand what the Frenzied Flame actually is.
"Roar"
The demon quickly got up from the ground and recovered from his chest injury at a slightly slower pace. He then pounced on Dorian without any sense of reason, his massive body pressing down on him like Mount Tai Pressure.
Dorian's elbow was split open, as if he was using the force of the flames to propel himself into a powerful punch.
Sai Ke tugged at Qiao Ke La's sleeve, bringing her back from observing the demons, and whispered, "Those two look like they're about to fight. Let's take this opportunity to run."
Qiao Ke La nodded immediately and looked back at the battlefield. Dorian's super-heavy punch shattered the demon's chest armor, and his fist turned into a sharp blade that smashed deep into the chest!
But at that moment, the demons tensed all their muscles, turning themselves into the strongest cage. Dorian couldn't pull his hands out for a moment and could only watch helplessly as he was crushed to the ground by the heavy weight!
The ground was instantly filled with dust from the heavy fall, almost obscuring everyone's vision. It was at this moment that Sai Ke whispered, "Now!"
The two of them immediately darted away like arrows released from a bow. Now was the perfect time to escape; if they didn't run now, when would they?
But they hadn't run more than a few steps when Dorian's figure reappeared on the road ahead.
Sai Ke's eyelids twitched violently. "Again!?"
Qiao Ke La turned around sharply and saw that the huge demon had been torn in two and was crawling on the ground with difficulty. Even with the help of the demon's regenerative ability, it would take some time for him to recover.
Dorian could crush that demon?
Judging from their previous battle performances, the two seemed to be evenly matched. How could they suddenly become so strong? This was unbelievable to Qiao Ke La.
"You should all start burning too."
Dorian's cloudy eyes darted around, and he reached out his hand to the two who had not yet stopped.
A gaping maw filled with sharp teeth split open in the palm of his hand, and a faint crackling sound seemed to come from it. The next moment, flames burst forth from the crack!
In the blink of an eye, they were submerged!
However, despite being surrounded by flames, Sai Ke and Qiao Ke La did not feel any pain, and even the burning sensation was not so intense, as if the flames were blocked by a thick, high wall.
He tentatively opened his eyes and saw a tall, dark, and furry wall in front of him!
No, that was a rather tall werewolf!
Flames singed his hair, but there was no obvious reaction on his face. The strange weapon in his hand, which looked like Saw Cleaver, spun continuously, forming a wall to block the flames.
Fan En glanced back at the two adventurers who had stumbled into the dangerous situation, then used his nimble tail to grab them and easily toss them out of the flames.
"It's too dangerous here, let's get out of here immediately."
He immediately swung the Saw Cleaver, and the powerful blow instantly created a gust of wind that pierced through the flames in the blink of an eye, causing Dorian to sway unsteadily.
This strike was stronger than his full-force attack in Reid that day; his strength had increased terrifyingly.
"If you don't want to run, you can just hide behind me."
Another crisp female voice came from behind. Still in a daze Sai Ke and Qiao Ke La turned around and were immediately stunned, stammering incoherently:
"You Fei- sama!?"
"You know me? That makes things easier. Stay here and don't move."
You Fei kicked the spear with her heel, sending it spinning gracefully in the air. She gripped the spear tightly, glanced at Dorian who was already fighting with Fan En, and muttered to herself:
"After so many days, we finally caught a demon, but I didn't expect it to bring me such an unexpected reward."
Behind her, several guards were dealing with the demon that had been torn in two by Dorian, burning the wounds with flames to stop regeneration and putting it to sleep with magic.
Although the technique was somewhat clumsy, the process clearly showed that the person had received training.
"Today has been a great harvest."
You Fei whistled, swung her arm, and threw a shot like a meteor, accurately dodging Fan En and hitting Dorian.
That shot pinned him to the ground!
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Fan En swung the Saw Cleaver several times and chopped off both of his arms with great decisiveness.
"Finish."
But just as he was about to proceed with the arrest procedure, Dorian suddenly let out a painful howl, his eyeballs ruptured instantly, and raging flames shot out from his eye sockets like a different kind of tear!
Caught off guard, Fan En almost fell victim to the attack and immediately retreated without pausing. Dorian's body underwent a transformation, squeezing the spear out of his body. New arms immediately grew from the severed arm, and his hands twisted into sharp claws in an instant, attacking Fan En.
Those who can be sent to the human world by Ounuo La to carry out missions are definitely not ordinary people!
He could have performed even better if his intelligence hadn't been affected.
At this moment, You Fei burst into the battlefield, her spear thrusting repeatedly to interrupt Dorian's attack. Finally, she even spun her spear, creating a storm that forced Dorian to retreat.
It's actually Weapon Skill called [Stormcaller]!
But then Dorian flicked a spark into the storm, and the storm immediately turned into Mystical Space Typhoon of fire, forcing You Fei to stop her attack, which could have burned her.
"My attempt to look cool failed."
She stuck out her tongue, raised her hand to block the enemy's attack, and beckoned Fan En to come and fight together.
The two worked together to immediately overwhelm Dorian, leaving him completely defenseless and forced to retreat in defeat.
"Amazing!" Sai Ke looked at the two figures as they walked away, a longing light shining in her eyes. She also wanted to become that powerful.
"Do you think that for them, there's no difference between Weapon Skill and magic?" Qiao Ke La asked thoughtfully.
The two were quickly pulled away from the battlefield by the rushing guards. In the center of the battlefield, Dorian gradually lost his strength and was about to be beaten to his knees and taken back as a slave.
"Pfft—"
With a swift chop, You Fei severed most of Dorian's neck, causing him to collapse to his knees, utterly powerless.
"Call"
She exhaled a breath of stale air and immediately threw Flame Pot at Dorian, using the flames to block his regeneration.
"This guy is strong, not on the same level as the one we just met," You Fei said. "I have a feeling that this guy is no ordinary person."
"That's a perfect opening." Fan En said as he bound Dorian's body.
But just then, he suddenly realized something was wrong—where did Dorian's severed hand go?
"Ahhh!"
A scream came from not far away. The demon that had been controlled suddenly broke free of its restraints and even grew larger, attacking the guards. Upon closer inspection, one of Dorian's hands was attached to its head!
This hand controlled the monster and even gave it a power boost!
You Fei immediately went back to rescue him, Fan En had only taken two steps when he suddenly stopped, turned around and stayed by Dorian's side, refusing to leave. He felt that this was his duty.
The latter remained motionless, appearing to have become a completely obedient child, but it was precisely because of this that further supervision was needed.
However, a gust of wind blew by, and Dorian swayed, about to fall to the ground, when Fan En instinctively steadied him.
"Snap—"
Dorian's body was torn apart!
No, it's just an empty shell!
Fan En immediately tore it apart, and a small hole appeared in the ground beneath the empty shell. It was likely that most of the creature's flesh had crawled in through this hole and escaped!
This level of flesh manipulation is among the best, even among demons!
Fan En sensed Dorian's presence underground and immediately gave chase. After a brief pursuit, he finally intercepted him and used the Saw Cleaver as a shovel to dig up the ground.
He was actually tracking down another missing arm!
"."
Fan En silently looked back, but on the vast plain, he could no longer sense any trace of Dorian; he had vanished without a trace.
This guy managed to escape.
After an unknown amount of time, in an even more secluded cave, Dorian, transformed into twisted flesh and blood, burst forth from the earth.
He was exhausted and looked like he needed a long rest, but his eyes were unusually clear, as if the Deathmatch just now had temporarily brought him back to his senses.
"Where did I get the chance to offend so many people?"
Dorian let out a resentful sound, feeling extremely wronged. Exhaustion washed over him like a tide, and he fell into a deep sleep the next second.
Just as he was fast asleep, something seemed to move in the shadows of the cave.
A chubby, purple-haired boy emerged from the shadows, grinning.
Dorian felt a chill run down his spine, and his body trembled involuntarily.
