Book 3: Chapter 132 (1) |
The next moment, a thunderous roar erupted. Leon detonated Thousand Birds early, using the blast’s force to send Gitai flying.
As he finished, Gini’s attack came right after.
But Leon was ready, stepping back just enough to dodge Gini’s assault by a hair.
Seizing Gini’s missed strike, Leon raised his leg, delivering a powerful knee strike to Gini’s abdomen.
Instantly, Gini felt his organs twist together, losing all ability to move in that moment.
Leon grabbed his throat, hoisted him high, and slammed him into the concrete ground.
The impact to Gini’s back and lungs was so severe he coughed up blood.
The ground beneath him cracked visibly.
Thus, the Dagger Trio: one buried, one blasted away, one nearly embedded in the ground.
The three lay around Leon in a triangular formation.
But Leon didn’t let his guard down, knowing these blows alone wouldn’t kill them.
Sure enough, it wasn’t long before the Dagger Trio regained their footing. Though all werekok较小 were injured to varying degrees, their fighting spirit and killing intent had been fully ignited by Leon.
“Time for a quick lesson from your senior: when fighting outnumbered, separate your opponents, turning a three-on-one into three one-on-ones.”
Leon said unhurriedly,
“Now, let’s get back to that earlier question.”
Leon stood tall, looking at Gini, his gaze calm,
“You said your dragon-slaying record isn’t worse than mine, but that’s not true.”
As he spoke, he slowly raised his right hand, vibrant blue lightning crackling in his palm,
“You can kill Dragon Kings because your limit is Dragon Kings.”
“But I can kill Dragon Kings because—”
“The strongest beings in this world are Dragon Kings.”
“And if there’s anything stronger, it just hasn’t met me yet.”
Clap—
Leon slammed his hands together, the explosive power of lightning roaring. The sky was instantly covered in dark clouds.
Thunder and lightning churned fiercely in the clouds, like a beast about to break free from its cage.
Super S-Class Lightning Magic: Dragon Extinction!
XX
Outside the battlefield, Rebecca-chan, seeing Leon unleash the ultimate move Dragon Extinction just three minutes into the fight:
*Captain, no need to go that hard.*
…
The environmental anomaly caused by Dragon Extinction also distracted Roswitha and the other two, who were clearing dangerous species, as they turned to look toward Leon.
Claudia gazed at the night sky gradually shrouded by dark clouds, the last sliver of pristine moonlight vanishing behind the layers.
The immense power of lightning roared and howled, as if eager to break free.
“This level of lightning magic… it’s a bit over the top, isn’t it?”
Even Claudia, with her vast experience, couldn’t help but marvel at the oppressive force of *Dragon Extinction*.
She had studied countless ancient texts and mastered numerous techniques revered by her predecessors, yet she had never seen lightning magic with such grandiose momentum and *devastating power* as Dragon Extinction.
“It’s a killing move Leon rarely uses. So far, I’ve only seen him use it twice,” Roswitha said.
The first time was during the Battle of the Spatial Rift, when the Starblaze Dragon King, Star, faced off against the husband-and-wife duo of Leon and Roswitha.
When Star, cornered and ready to *go down fighting*, Leon, with the aid of the Silver Dragon Clan, unleashed Dragon Extinction, a Super S-Class lightning magic.
Back then, Leon couldn’t use it alone—he needed the Silver Dragon Clan’s dragon flames to alter the weather, forming cumulonimbus clouds to gather enough natural lightning.
But six months ago, when Leon returned from the future to the present, he could already cast Dragon Extinction solo—
Though afterward, he was so drained he could barely walk, General Leon’s heroic feat of *slaying six dragons in ten seconds* was still etched deeply in Roswitha’s memory.
Thinking of this, Roswitha’s lips curled slightly, her heart swelling with a proud *“See that? That’s my husband!”*
That said, the battle had only just begun, and Leon was already using a killing move like Dragon Extinction.
Was it because the Dagger Trio was so strong that they pressured him into needing a quick resolution?
Or was Leon just tired of *farming small fry* and wanted to end the fight outright?
As she pondered, a charred fusion beast suddenly collapsed at Roswitha and Claudia’s feet.
This snapped her back to reality, and she turned to see Constantine.
“I don’t mean to interrupt you two, but before admiring someone’s majestic figure, shouldn’t we deal with the trouble at hand?”
Constantine knew full well how strong Leon was, so whether it was Dragon Extinction or Tiger Extinction, he had no worries about Leon’s side of the fight.
“The fusion beasts are increasing, and they seem capable of a second-stage fusion,” Constantine said.
Roswitha frowned slightly, “Second-stage fusion? What’s that?”
Before Constantine could answer, Roswitha noticed her shadow on the ground being overtaken by a larger one.
Turning around, the queen’s frown deepened, her face even showing a trace of unease.
Behind her and Claudia, several fusion beasts drew closer, extending black, viscous tendrils from their bodies that bound them together.
Then, their skin melted like asphalt, merging into one.
Finally, a colossal monster, formed from multiple fusion beasts, appeared before the three Dragon Kings.
Its massive, chaotic body lacked any structure, with at least three heads alone.
“As Leon predicted, the Empire was hiding an even more *shameless* trump card.”
