Speed Is King

Chapter 257 Bronze Dragon Fire

[Final Phase Initiated.]

[Defeat the four Hegemon Level Prime Warriors to receive an amazing reward!]

“Big bro, Jessica and I can take care of one. We’ll take the Southern Phoenix.” Jennifer immediately called out confidently.

“Frosty and I will take the Western Tiger.” Wu Kong immediately said.

“Lendra and I can take the Eastern Bear.” Khalendros said.

Before the others could say anything, Elliot cut in and assigned orders.

“Good. I appreciate your confidence. But these are Hegemon level fighters we are talking about. Even though they should be weaker than normal Hegemons because they are mere Golems, it would be very dangerous to underestimate them.

Rom, go to the East with the dragons. Aldera, go to the South with my sisters. Kai, go to the west with Wu Kong and Frosty. The rest of you, stand by to help!” Elliot ordered.

“Acknowledged.”

“Yes Boss!”

“As you wish, Master.”

Elliot’s beasts all nodded and obeyed his words.

“I will handle the Northern Dragon myself. Ready? Go!”

Immediately, Elliot and his beasts charged out to their assigned Hegemon level enemy and let out exhilarated roars of challenge!

At that moment, the four Hegemon Beasts had completed their combination, and they too let out their own fearsome roars!

And within seconds, battle was joined.

The viewers of the universe couldn’t help but roar out once more in excitement!!

The first battle was, quite surprisingly, between Wu Kong’s group and the Western Tiger.

Although Elliot and the dragons had blink, the Hegemons were startlingly much, much faster than they thought possible.

And so, by the time Elliot, the dragons and Rom appeared out of their blink, their enemies had actually crossed half the distance that was originally between them!

Loud battle cries erupted from the West as the Tiger entered into a swirling, high speed battle with Wu Kong, Frosty and Kai.

A split second later, similar cries sounded from the South as the Phoenix clashed with Jennifer, Jessica and Aldera.

The Hegemon level beasts had near impenetrable levels of defense, and were able to easily resist the probing attacks unleashed by Elliot’s team.

Their attacks were also nothing to be scoffed at. Each strike was extremely powerful and launched at extremely high speed and all six of then were instantly sent onto the defensive as they strived with all their strengths to avoid being hit.

Elliot immediately realized his mistake as soon as their battles were joined.

Both Frosty and Kai had area of effect auras and skills that could lower the speed of their enemy, and thus they were able to utilize that to fight against their opponent with ease.

However, Jessica, Jennifer and Aldera had nothing like that, and they were immediately struggling against the Southern Phoenix.

They had to go all out just to avoid the Phoenix’s high speed attacks!

Thankfully, Winter noticed that as well and she sprang into action almost immediately. She shot to the south to help slow down the Phoenix with her ice attacks.

“Red! Help the girls!” Elliot ordered a split second before he finally clashed against the Northern Dragon.

After that, everything faded away into the background as all of his attention fell on the ferocious Dragon.

At over a hundred meters tall, the Dragon was truly a sight to behold.

Its shiny, metallic material reflected the light from the three suns and shone really brightly. Sharp spikes protruded out of its hands and feet as claws and even more spikes filled its gigantic maw as teeth.

For any other King, or even Emperor, it would have looked like the embodiment of death.

But to Elliot, it looked like the biggest punching bag he had ever seen.

“Let’s give Bronze a try now.” He thought as his blue scales disappeared and bronze scales took its place.

Like its Chromatic counterpart, the Red Dragon, Bronze Dragons specialize in fire.

And as it turned out, the difference made itself readily apparent as soon as he launched his first attack.

Red dragons produce extremely hot flames that burn with such great heat that they turn violet.

Bronze dragons, however, produce extremely aggressive and invasive flames that contain tiny metallic shards that would burn their way past any defence and penetrate through any obstacle!

It was the perfect type of flame to deal with the Northern Dragon.

The Bronze Dragon Fire attack released Elliot’s Cosmic Dragon Energy smashed heavily onto the dragon’s right claw and very surprisingly began to rapidly break it down!

If it was the Red Dragon’s attack, it would have depended on its extreme heat to melt the Northern Dragon’s claw. It would eventually manage to do that, but it would take time.

The Bronze Dragon’s attack wasn’t as hot as the Red Dragon’s. But against highly armored targets, it was much, much more effective.

Graaahhhhh!!!

The Northern Dragon roared out in anger and pushed back against Elliot’s incredibly potent attack fearlessly.

It closed the distance between them in a blink of an eye and it began to unleash a flurry of powerful close combat attacks that would definitely tear off a sizeable chunk of Elliot’s body if any of them connected.

Its incredible speed in spite of its massive one hundred meter tall size was something that Elliot didn’t expect at all.

The fact that it was also incredibly accurate with its attacks also added to Elliot’s awe of the Northern Dragon.

“What an excellent piece of work! Even though it’s a combination of thousands of golems, it’s exhibiting excellent levels of performance! Elliot thought aloud in his public mindspace. “How are you all doing?”

“Damn right! This Phoenix is also bloody fast!” Red squawked loudly. “But don’t worry! I got it completely under control!”

“Tough. But ok.” Wu Kong grunted.

“Yeah. Still ok.” Khalendros replied as well.

The battles they were in were so intense that none but the highly talkative Red were able to spare more than a few words in response to Elliot’s question.

With their words, Elliot could focus on his enemy without having to worry about his team!
