Chapter 437 Battle Between Companions
An armor of ice appeared around him, and a further layer of ice covered him. He was preparing himself to face off against this enraged beast that was not going to hold back now. He released a battle cry and started approaching the opponent.
The giants clashed again, this time with even more ferocity. The whole body of the Ice Giant shook from the attacks of the Lizardman; each blow blasted its body into small pieces of ice.
As the battle continued, the ice giant had to constantly recover and face his opponent. Some blows were so powerful that they shattered some parts of its body. The ice giant was only barely able to face its opponent.
Besides the clash of the giants, their companions were battling against each other. The three clones of the Lizardman were facing off against the companions of the Ice Giant.
First, a bird covered in blue flames overtook the sky with its wings ablaze. It released multiple attacks on the clones and harassed them constantly from far away. It used a combination of ice and fire to make the opponent's life miserable.
A creature similar to the Raptor Rider could be seen facing two clones alone at the forefront. It was a creation of shadow, frost, and draconic energy, stalked with a demonic intent. It looked like something that came straight out of the Abyss.
Finally, a majestic crane-type bird with a small cloud surrounding it is the master of cloud manipulation. It conjured a giant knight made up of clouds that were clashing with the remaining clone.
Each step of the Lizardman was filled with confidence and power, each wooden clone a testament to his mastery and control. Each clone fought with the same style as the Lizardman, with a spear in their hand that dealt decisive blows at the opponent.
They had very strong regeneration abilities and the ability to control viruses and stretch their limbs. Facing them was very difficult, as their attacks were well coordinated and blended with feints.
The Shadow Frost Raptor Rider clashed with them, facing two of them alone. The speed at which it charged and landed its blows gave the opponent little time to react. When the clones launched their powerful attacks, they found that the Raptor Rider had already retreated.
Its attacks were lethal and explosive, and its defense was also formidable. The Agile Raptor only gave wings to the rider, making him a force to be reckoned with. Its combat abilities and skills were well polished as if it had fought multiple battles.
A colossal knight made up of clouds assisted the Raptor Rider, acting as a tank and taking various blows. It was able to eat up all the damage easily and didn't give clones any time to charge at its allies.
The bird, surrounded by mist, cast spells from a distance to assist the raptor rider. The slight mist it created around the opponents made it easier for Raptor Rider to ambush them and retreat swiftly.
The remaining six feathered birds launched multiple powerful fire spells at the opponent. It had been found out that they were doing more damage to the opponents. The fire spells were also reducing the recovery rate of the opponent, which gave Raptor Rider a free hand to build up the damage attack by attack slowly.
His hit-and-run strategy would be useless if the opponent could recover the next moment, so the role of the Fire Bird was critical in this battle.
Together, the trio was facing off well against their opponents. Their teamwork also got better and better with time. They were pushing back the clones and giving them a tough time, remarkably fulfilling their role in the battle.
Amidst the chaos, another battle raged, equally fierce and equally fatal. An eight-foot-tall lizardman, Tom Guard of Undeniable, might clash with a most formidable adversary. His opponent, a two-meter-long beast, cascaded in silky fur. With multiple intricate patterns on its body that looked carefully crafted to make it look more majestic,
Its eyes flickered with cold presence, clutching a giant sword in its gaping maw; a golden armor surrounded its body, radiating an aura of menace.
The Lizardman released its zone, and the earth around him shook, and cracks appeared on it. The next moment, two clones, made up of earth, came out of it. With their support and the boost from their zone, the Lizardman succeeded in pushing his opponent back, making him retreat.
It had not even started enjoying itself when the eyes of the tiger beast shone golden. His beautiful eyes, which looked like they were forged from molten gold, suddenly became very dangerous. The wind around him started blowing fast.
With a deafening roar that could be heard over the cacophony of the war, the beast released a typhoon technique. No visible change could be noticed, but the Lizardman found that it was as if the time had stopped.
He was not able to understand what it was; his body was frozen. He could see the beast approaching him with his sword cloaked in a golden light. This simple change made him feel as if it were cloaked in the aura of death and destruction.
The body of the beast flickered and appeared behind the Lizardman, and the world returned to normal again. The Lizardman turned and approached its opponent, but halfway through, its feet halted and it raised something.
If he felt a burning pain on his neck and the next moment its neck swiflly fell on the ground, his eyes widened, still looking at the back of his opponent, who was ignoring his existence. Only a beast stood proud on this side of the battle field.
The Ice Giant has now gotten used to the attacks of the opponent. His regeneration helped him keep battling. He improved very fast while fighting with the opponent; previously, he was analyzing the opponent.
Now that he was aware of what his opponent was capable of, he was able to face him in a better way. His mana vein network helps him gather the raw power all over his body to keep fighting with his opponent.
Lizardman was forced to use more strength by the Ice Giant, but it was as if he had endless power; each time he would shock the Ice Giant, showing him something new.
Killing intent helped the Ice Giant predict the attacks of the opponent and dodge them. With time, he was also improving in his use of perception. He had rarely faced an opponent that could push him to such an extent.
