Chapter 90 Ch. 90: The Hidden Treasure's Guardian [3]
?
"Roooaarrrr!!"
—Flap! —Flap!
The sound of flapping wings followed, dispersing the clouds of dust and revealing a Wyvern standing on its hind legs.
Its feral eyes looked around, and upon seeing numerous people gather around it, the Wyvern opened its mouth.
The throng watched in horror as the Wyvern's jaws began to fill with embers.
Panic spread like wildfire, and people began to scatter in all directions, desperate to escape the creature's wrath.
"Huuaa!! Run away!!
"The Wyvern is back!!"
In the blink of an eye, the Wyvern unleashed its breath of fire.
—Fwoosh!
But just before the fire could reach them, a wall of earth suddenly emerged from the ground, blocking the flames.
—Drrtt!
The ground shook as the wall of the earth grew taller and wider, creating a barrier between the students and the Wyvern.
Recognizing the futility of its attack, the Wyvern ceased its assault and pivoted its head in the direction of the Mana source.
There, the beast saw a platform of earth hovered in the air, and atop it stood a boy with white hair.
The moment their eyes locked, Adrian's lips curled into a mocking smirk.
"Roooaarrrr!!"
The Wyvern snarled in response, vividly remembering Adrian.
Without delay, it flapped its wings and leaped up, determined to take down its opponent.
But instead of soaring into the sky, the Wyvern plummeted back to the ground with a deafening crash—its wings failing to lift its massive body.
—Boom!
The ground shook violently, sending debris and dirt flying in all directions.
Adrian couldn't help but chuckle as he watched the scene unfold.
"Now, you're nothing but a mere lizard."
He quipped, noting that the Wyvern seemed unaware that its wings had been severed.
Now that the Wyvern had lost its ability to fly, despite his whole body aching like hell from tasting his own magic, to Adrian, it was a fair trade-off.
Wasting no more time, he recited a spell.
Within moments, a magic circle materialized behind him and hurled a barrage of earth palisades toward the grounded Wyvern.
However, to his surprise, the Wyvern sprang into action and deftly dodged left and right, evading the attacks with ease.
"Tsk."
Adrian clucked his tongue.
Although the Wyvern had lost its ability to fly, it remained agile.
Hmm, now, what should he do to slow it down?
The Wyvern poised itself to dodge the incoming attack but was abruptly ensnared midway when the ground beneath it suddenly transformed into a treacherous puddle of mud.
The beast thrashed and writhed, struggling to break free from the mud that relentlessly dragged it down, but to no avail.
The Wyvern's head snapped up, and a volley of jagged earth spears entered its sight.
—Boom! —Boom! —Boom!
"Roooaarrrr!!"
The Wyvern's blood-curdling wail reverberated through the forest.
The earth spears rained down on its massive form, tearing through its scales and drawing blood.
However, a sudden burst of flames surged toward him from below, forcing Adrian to halt his attack and leap toward the newly summoned earth plates.
Without delay, the Wyvern immediately broke free from the mud that had ensnared its feet and bolted away.
Blood streamed down its scales and dripped as it swiftly sprinted toward the area of the tree.
But before the Wyvern reached the area of the trees, a blur of movement rushed toward it, causing the Wyvern to rear up and beat its wings in startled reaction.
"Roooaarrrr!!"
The Wyvern let out a wail as blood continued to spurt out from its feet; a lightning-fast wheat-haired boy was seen running circles around the monster, relentlessly thrusting his spears with precision and determination.
The Wyvern looked downward, but Péréz was way too fast for its eyes to follow.
Ignoring it, the Wyvern flapped its wings and leaped backward before turning around to look for another route, however—
—Whack!
With a sudden, savage blow, the Wyvern's head was wrenched to the side.
"Roooaarrrr!!"
It let out a roar of pain before crashing to the ground with a deafening thud.
—Boom!
In the aftermath, a black-haired boy with a powerful build landed gracefully nearby, his eyes fixed on the fallen creature.
Seizing the opportunity, Sylvina and Rhea unleashed a barrage of lightning bolts.
—Boom! —Boom! —Boom!
A series of deafening explosions erupted, each one louder than the last.
The ground shook violently as debris and clouds of dust were hurled into the air.
Adrian, who watched the whole scene from above, smirked.
'Finally, they use the Magic Scroll correctly this time, huh?'
Well, they found a lot of Magic Scroll inside the treasure chests.
However, the girls were forced to halt their attack upon seeing red flickered inside the clouds of dust.
Wasting no more time, they immediately jumped to the side to dodge the incoming attack.
—Boom!
An earth wall suddenly emerged and blocked the fire before it could even touch them.
Sylvina looked up, and when her eyes locked with Adrian's cerulean eyes, she smiled, and Adrian nodded in response.
"Roooaarrrr!!"
Glancing toward the sound, Adrian saw the wyvern stagger backward, its body battered by the unrelenting assault of Ralph and Péréz.
—Whack! —Whack! —Whack!
Blood sprayed into the air with every wound they inflicted.
However, unexpectedly, the Wyvern spun around and lashed out with its tail, causing Péréz to widen his eyes as it was too late to dodge.
—Whack!
"Urgh!!"
Péréz flung backward, and Ralph, in an instant, leaped forward to catch the boy's body and cushion his fall.
"Screech!!"
Taking advantage of the situation, the Wyvern immediately bolts away.
However, the ground beneath the monster suddenly gave way.
—Splash!
With a loud splash, the Wyvern crashed into a puddle of thick, sticky mud, sending a spray of muck in every direction.
The beast struggled to break free, but the mud was wrapped tightly around its body, sucking it down deeper into the earth.
As a familiar presence made itself known, the Wyvern turned towards the source, revealing a figure with white hair landing gracefully on the ground.
His sword gleamed, catching the light.
