Chapter 49 Little Dragon
Chapter 49 Little Dragon
After the figure of water had reformed, the booming voice rang out again.
"Ha, ha, ha, did you really think that would work? As long as there's water, there's no way that you can defeat me!"
Lin Fan knitted his brows slightly when he heard this, but then he revealed a faint smile as he said, "Is that so?"
Without another word, he immediately turned around in the direction of Xiao Yue and started running.
As he ran past Xiao Yue, he grabbed her hand and pulled her into the forest with him.
The figure of water staggered for a second before the booming voice rang out, "You're trying to run from this one! I will hunt you down and rip you to pieces! You will not escape!"
Lin Fan ignored this as he continued running into the forest with Xiao Yue.
It was like the booming voice had just said, as long as there was water, there wasn't a way for him to defeat it. Since that was the case, why would he stay near the lake where the enemy had an advantage?
Since the enemy needed water to fight, he would just move away from the lake.
If the enemy followed, it would be easier for him to fight it and if the enemy didn't follow, then there was no need to fight which was even better for him.
But as expected, the figure of water didn't let him escape.
After the arrogant words that it had said, if it let Lin Fan escape, it would be shameful for it.
So the figure of water started moving to the land.
After coming out of the water, the figure of water created two legs that let it walk, but these legs looked so small that it was shocking that it was able to hold up its large body.
But one shouldn't look down on the size of its legs since the speed that it moved at…It was even faster than Lin Fan!
Lin Fan could see the large mass of water approaching him, but he didn't turn back right away.
Their current position was still too close to the lake, so even if they were to cut this mass of water apart, it would be able to pull in more water from the lake to regenerate its body.
So Lin Fan continued running for another minute before finally coming to a stop and turning to face the approaching mass of water.
When the figure of water saw that Lin Fan stopped, it also stopped as the booming voice rang out again, "You've finally stopped. Have you accepted your death?"
Of course, that wasn't the reason why it had stopped as well.
For Lin Fan to suddenly stop like this, it must mean that he had some kind of plan or prepared some kind of trap.
To make sure that it didn't fall into said trap, the figure of water stopped to look over the area first.
However, after finding that there was nothing special about this area at all, the figure of water no longer held back as it created tentacles of water to face Lin Fan.
This time, Lin Fan didn't run away as he raised his blade covered in a blue glow to face the figure of water.
The tentacles fell down on Lin Fan, but he always dodged them by the slightest margin while swinging his sword at the tentacles. When his sword slashed through the tentacles, they cut right through them and freezed the two sides of the tentacles that were severed.
The frozen parts of the tentacles were dropped to the ground and didn't return to the main mass of water.
As Lin Fan continued cutting through the tentacles of water, more and more water was chipped away from the main mass. As more and more water fell to the ground as pieces of ice, the main mass of water started to decrease in size.
Eventually, it went from a ten meter figure of water to just over three meters.
Lin Fan knew that if he continued slashing away a bit longer, he would be able to find the real body of this opponent.
However, what he didn't expect was that there would be a needle of water that would shoot at him from behind his head.
He didn't know where this needle of water even came from, but it was already too late for him to react as he had been mid swing against another tentacle that he had suddenly dodged.
Seeing that there was no way for him to dodge it, the only thing that Lin Fan could do was gather as much spiritual energy between his body and the needle of water as a protective shield.
Of course, since he gathered this spiritual energy in a rush, it wasn't as strong as he wanted it to be.
The water needle hit Lin Fan in the back of the head and then exploded in a mist.
Once this mist appeared, the booming voice came again from the figure of water, "Ha, ha, ha, you fool! Do you really think that this was all I could do! Now you're finally dead!"
Actually, there was a trace of exhaustion in that voice when it rang out. It was clear that this mass of water hadn't expected Lin Fan to be this strong, so it had actually burned quite a bit of its energy fighting Lin Fan.
But in the end, it was able to use this trick to take out Lin Fan.
The trick was actually very simple.
Behind Lin Fan, there was a tree that was completely withered away.
The mass of water had controlled the water that had been in that tree, gathering it all into a needle that it shot at the back of Lin Fan's head. That was how it had caught Lin Fan off guard since Lin Fan never would have expected that it would be able to control the water in living beings.
However, after the mist dissipated, the booming voice suddenly stopped laughing.
Lin Fan hadn't been hit by the needle of water like it had thought, but rather there was a sword that had suddenly appeared behind Lin Fan's head that had blocked it.
Lin Fan also hadn't expected this, so his eyes had been closed as he had braced for impact from the water needle.
However, when he didn't feel the pain that should have come from being hit, he opened his eyes and turned around to see Gramr floating there behind him.
Gramr had summoned itself and was now floating there behind him which had completely shocked him, but he was also grateful to Gramr since its sudden appearance had protected him.
Before Lin Fan could say anything, the booming voice suddenly said, "That's the aura that I sensed! It was this sword!"
Then after a pause, the booming voice said, "Human, as long as you give me this sword, I will spare you!"
However, Lin Fan just ignored it as he looked at Gramr.
He could feel a kind of excitement from Gramr as it suddenly pointed itself at the mass of water. Then before he could react, Gramr suddenly flew out and stabbed the mass of water, going right through the thick mass and coming out the other side.
When Gramr came out the other side, there were a few drops of red that came out with it. Looking carefully, Lin Fan could tell that it was blood.
In the center of the mass of water, there was a stream of red that suddenly appeared that started to spread.
Once Gramr came out the other side, the booming voice rang out, "Ah! That hurts!"
Then as if it had become unstable, the mass of water started to shake before it suddenly fell apart on its own.
All the water fell to the ground before a little blue figure that had been in the center of the mass of water also fell down.
After hitting the ground, the little blue figure flapped its wings and started rolling on the ground, as it shouted, "Ow! Ow! It hurts so much!"
The voice was no longer a booming voice like before, rather it had become a childish voice.
Lin Fan took a closer look and found that the blue figure rolling on the ground was actually a little dragon.
Gramr flew back to Lin Fan and as it floated there in front of him, Lin Fan could feel the excitement and killing intent coming from it. There was no need for him to guess as he knew that it was all directed at the little dragon.
While he was a bit confused why Gramr felt this way about this little dragon, Lin Fan knew that it wasn't the time to think about this now.
So instead, Lin Fan took Gramr by the handle and cautiously moved towards the little dragon rolling on the ground, screaming out in pain.
He didn't know if the little dragon would still do anything, but he wouldn't let his guard down at the last second.
As he approached, the little dragon seemed to have sensed something and it suddenly stopped screaming. It looked up from the ground to look right at Lin Fan who was approaching it with Gramr.
Seeing Lin Fan coming over, the little dragon suddenly revealed a look of fear.
Without any hesitation at all, the little dragon stood up off the ground and flapped its wings to fly into the air.
Lin Fan thought that it was preparing to put up a final struggle, so he raised Gramr to meet it, but he never expected what happened next.
Once again, without any hesitation, the little dragon flapped its wings to fly at Lin Fan head on.
Lin Fan swung Gramr out to meet it, but the little dragon suddenly dropped, landing on the ground and avoiding Gramr. It slid across the ground for a bit before stopping right in front of Lin Fan.
Lin Fan looked down to see the little dragon in a dogeza in front of him.
