Chapter 987: Underwater Explosion
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Knight Ando felt frustrated. Why couldn’t such a powerful legendary knight like himself catch a big druid?
He thought this as he jumped into the hole. He couldn’t let Abel escape; it was the mission his God gave him.
Although legendary knights were not the fastest underwater, he still had his power of the will locked on Abel.
The water around him was immediately propelled a meter away from him, so he could move underwater without getting wet.
At that moment, Abel had traveled a kilometer in this underground stream. He sensed the legendary knight still after him. He could still feel that scary suppression force even in his giant dragon form.
The underground stream was his last resort. He could only stay in his dragon form for 30 minutes, and 15 minutes had passed. Once he returned to his human form, he would be suppressed, and the legendary knight would be able to capture him. By that point, he could no longer have any control over his destiny.
After sensing the great danger, he ignited his world stone and allowed his druid soul to take over his main soul.
He had no choice. Letting the robotic Druid soul take care of things was risky, but it was the right choice.
Emotions such as fear and anxiety faded from his blue dragon eyes, and he was in total peace.
The world stone with the druid soul turned him into an emotional-less creature, and in this calm state, he immediately thought of a crazy solution.
Without hesitation, his druid soul reached a strand of power of the will in his portal bag and took out a super exploding ball. He then used his blue dragon ability to control water and carried the ball behind.
His druid soul began to count down “6,5,4,3,2,1.”
Knight Ando saw something flowing towards him with vicious elemental energy flashing within. He wrapped his power of the will and tried to control it, but a perfect red gem ignited that thing. It wouldn’t be easy.
If the super exploding ball was ignited by a magic circle to a magic pattern, Knight Ando would be able to stop it with no hassle.
But the super exploding ball worked by the time freezing ability of Abel’s personal storage box. It was ignited long ago, and once it was taken out, all the elements within it would go crazy.
“Bastard, he is insane!” knight Ando roared furiously. A shield appeared on his left, and a white light flashed. It was the holy shield, and he ignited it with his power of the will. Afterward, he added an extra layer of pure white armor made out of Holy energy on his body.
Although the super exploding ball was vicious, it was not much to a legendary knight. If he was not in water, charging through it shouldn’t be a problem.
He had enough defense on him, so he was confident that thing couldn’t hurt him.
Times up. At that moment, the water around Abel was frozen, and in that last second, his body was locked down by a block of ice.
Bang!
A thunderous bang set off underground. The energy of a perfect red gem was blasted out at an instant between Abel and knight Ando.
The explosion set off around 500 meters from both of them, and a shockwave roared towards them.
The shockwave slammed into Abel, who was in a ball of ice, but before it was broken, he was propelled forward even faster.
On the other hand, Knight Ando had a much easier time at the back with his holy energy armor.
At first, he thought it would be something with a concentrated blast such as the mana cannon, but the explosion had spread out through all directions, which barely even made him budge.
At the end of the day, this was just something Abel had been toying with when he was weak. Its power was inferior compared to ancient war machines.
If his personal storage box couldn’t freeze time, he wouldn’t even keep those things on him.
That thing was only made with a perfect gem and a failed rune after all.
Just when Knight Ando was laughing at the power of that blast, he realized his body was going off balance. He was not at his greatest underwater, so he was soon carried back by the current of the shockwave. He sensed with his power of the will. The dragon was getting away.
His heart began to race, but an even more surprising thing happened. Since the explosion set off in an airtight underground space, the energy of the blast could only travel outward from both ends.
The hole Abel dug up was the easiest at out, and the water was gushing towards it.
The hole immediately expended. Since knight Ando was not far from it, it was pushed out of the stream by this immense force.
He was extremely irritated. His skills were helpless under this circumstance.
Things did not stop there. After the immense energy was blasted out of the stream, the unstable structure of the valley began to fall.
If knight Ando still wanted to chase after Abel, he would need to dig another hole himself, but at that moment, he realized he could no longer locate Abel with his power of the will.
Maybe Abel had already used his holy transformation necklace to hide his scent, which was very similar to Knight Ando’s method.
Knight Ando’s god came to this world after losing a war, so he did not have many holy objects on him in the first place. Especially after battling with the great power of this world and used a forbidden spell, he had entered a deep sleep.
This god didn’t even have enough holy objects for himself, let alone for knight Ando.
This was not the case with the Elves’ goddess of Moon. She was the god of the land. Although she never fought in great battles, she had the stable loyalty of the elves. Therefore, she had enough resources to make Holy objects.
She had granted some of her works to elves with great contributions. Abel’s transformation necklace was one of them. That thing was almost like the helping hand of the goddess.
As Knight Ando was going off balance, Abel’s druid soul immediately caught this opportunity and ignited his transformation necklace. From then on, knight Ando had lost his target.
Without his power of the will to locate him, finding Abel in this underground stream would be a big challenge.
The legendaries were not gods at the end of the day. If a dragon didn’t want to fight him, he would not be able to show his power, especially if he was not able to suppress him.
“I’ll kill you!” Knight Ando roared, and a knight sword flashed out from his hand. He was furious.
He heavily struck down under the lake, and vicious fire elements began to gather.
Bang! A big hole was opened up, and water gushed out.
Just when he was about to jump down, his face twitched, and he looked forward.
2 bodies with powerful energy flashed in the sky, and their target was Knight Ando.
“I’ve failed!” Knight Ando’s Heart immediately slowed down. He knew he had failed.
He couldn’t chase after a big druid anymore in the face of 2 legendary wizards.
“Mr Ando, what are you doing in the lake. Do you want us to play along?” A legendary wizard floated in mid-air with a smile.
The other legendary wizard was also looking at this lake with a weird look on his face. All the water on the surface of this lake was frozen, and a big hole was opened up in the exposed bottom with murky water gushing out.
Knight Ando was clearly chasing after a target, but it seemed like that target had escaped a legendary knight.
Knight Ando must be deeply humiliated for him to get this angry as a legendary knight.
“Mr. Larkin, I’ll be on my way out of the front line battlefield!” Knight Ando was angry, but he knew it wouldn’t be wise to have a war between the legendaries.
Legendary Wizard Larkin was only joking. Once a battle broke out between them, this entire place would be wiped out. They were in the front line battlefield, an important territory of resources.
The front line was only for forces below the legendaries to battle. After countless years, both sides had an agreement. The legendaries would not get involved.
Therefore, most legendaries would not step foot in the front-line battlefield. Every time they did, they would run the risk of triggering a war between the legendaries.
“Mr Ando, who are you looking for? Maybe I can help you!” Legendary Wizard Luke smiled.
Of course, he was saying in a mocking tone. After all, you wouldn’t have the opportunity to mess with a legendary knight every day.
“One day, I will destroy you!” Knight Ando lowered his voice. He was looking very bad.
After those words, he didn’t even bat an eye towards the wizards and headed back to the Evil Kingdom. Once his scent stayed in the front line battlefield along with those 2 legendary wizards for too long, the Evil Kingdom must send out another legendary knight to match their power. Then, the wizard union might send out even more support and cause a war.
Everyone knew this, so Knight Ando headed back as soon as possible.
The legendary wizards exchanged gaze helplessly. They, too, didn’t want a war between the legendaries.
The front-line was the best training ground for new powers for both sides, with enough resources and battle opportunities. It was best not to break this balance just yet. On the one hand, the Evil Kingdom needed to keep strengthening their power to avoid invasion as their god was still in slumber.
On the other hand, the Central Continent would also gain some great power from time to time.
As you know, the Central Continent had a big advantage when it came to their population. Geniuses would appear. All they needed was time. It was only through this. They would stand a chance against the Evil Kingdom.
Abel didn’t know about this intricate balance of the front-line battlefield, and he didn’t know the legendary knight after he was scared off by the legendary wizards. After some more swimming under the stream, he returned to his elf form.
His main soul took back control. His main soul was keeping close attention on what happened, but it couldn’t intervene. Even when he thought it was crazy when he saw himself throwing out the super exploding ball.
After all, his druid soul had no emotions. But in a crisis like this, it could remain rational.
Although what he did was very dangerous, the shockwave was blocked by a giant ball of ice. With the strength of his blue dragon body, he did not get himself injured.
He looked around. He was in a pitch dark waterhole. But even in his elf form, he could breathe underwater. He was a young dragon, after all.
