BXBX NOVEL Chapter 597 A Race Against Time
-----
Meanwhile, while everyone was fighting Fafnir fiercely to buy time, Planta, Acorn, and Richard continued their recreation of Gram!
FLAAAASH!
Out of the cauldron as hundreds of Alchemy Spirits both accelerated the process and enhanced its quality, a beautiful golden blade surged from within!
It emanated the might of all four Great Dragons\' Fangs, which were incredibly tough and powerful. Combined together with their claws, scales, and bones durability, alongside Planta\'s own spirit wood and other ores from the underground, it seemed that this blade might be actually capable of piercing Fafnir\'s scales!
However, it still lacked what made Gram so grand, capable of piercing and slashing apart a near indestructible being… It needed its divine power, something that only the other half held. To grant this powerful new blade the other half\'s divine power, of course, both had to merge as one.
"We\'ve managed to do it!" Acorn was shocked.
"I didn\'t thought it would be this hard…" Planta sighed in relief.
The entire process was hard because the materials didn\'t wanted to merge together. As if they still carried the dragon\'s souls and wills, the fangs simply constantly rejected one another, and Acorn, Richard, and Planta had to unleash all their Mana and power to make it so they cold mix into a single item.
"Now, the only thing left is to merge this with the other half of Gram!" Richard said. "However, we need some strong force, a magic to bond them together…"
"Do we have anything like that?!" Acorn wondered.
"I think I have an idea…" Planta said, quickly summoning dozens of lesser spirits around their surroundings, which had been sprouting around them for a while from her terrain. "Let\'s merge the power of Spirit Fusion with Alchemy!"
"I guess there\'s no other way… We have to bet this on it!" Planta nodded, infusing her magic into the cauldron alongside Acorn and Richard\'s magic.
FLAAAASH!
…
"No more games…"
Ding!
[The [Great Evil Dragon King of Greed: Fafnir: Lv180] has activated the [Netherworld Flames of Darkness] Skill!]
[Flames that can consume almost anything are covering his entire body!]
Fafnir suddenly activated a Skill he had been saving for a while now, partially because it exhausted his Mana and Nether reserves tremendously when utilized… However, right now, he couldn\'t care less.
Although he was unable to completely regain his past powers due to being interrupted by Planta and her friends, he was still more then capable of absorbing enough Nether to activate this overwhelming magic.
"[Netherworld Flames of Darkness]! This is the power I used to take down thousands when I was alive! And now, these dear flames of mine shall consume you all into ashes!"
FLUOOOOOSSSH!
The Flames spread everywhere, consuming the Shadow World entirely, and then the rest of the surrounding buildings as well! Fafnir was mercilessly destroying everything, no longer having more patience!
The flames flickered and shapeshifted, turning into a swarm of ferocious wyvern-like flame monsters, and even snakes and other types of beasts, which formed an army of pure flames, rushing towards everyone in front of him.
"DESTROY THEM!"
Mercilessly ordering their annihilation, Fafnir had no more patience with them! The attacks were fierce. Nobody\'s magic seemed to properly work. Their magic melted away; their attacks turned into ashes. It was all hopeless!
"Nothing works?!" Rita cried. "Then let\'s see if this works or not! [Malice Darkness Magic]: [Eternal Void]!"
A gigantic distortion on space generated a huge black hole, the gravity pulling the flames and flame beasts inside of it and swiftly beginning to teat them down and making them disappear!
TRUUUUUMMM…!
"I-It\'s working!" Rita was surprised. "I have enough energy for another…!"
"Useless!" Fafnir roared, suddenly rushing towards the void hole, and imbuing his claws with his flames, attacking it!
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CRAAAASH!
His attacks somehow destabilized the distortion on space, shattering it apart and then destroying it without any more effort!
BOOOOOMMMM…!
A huge spatial explosion was unleashed after the void\'s total destruction, but Fafnir was almost completely untouched by it, unscathed, and with a nasty grin.
"Pointless. Your struggle is pointless! HAHAHAHA!"
FLAAAASH!
He moved his wings rapidly, flying across the skies and then descending directly towards where everyone was gathered together.
"I\'LL BURN YOU TO ASHES!"
CLAAAAAAASSSSH!!!
His landing provoked a huge eruption of black flames, which flew everywhere all at once. Titan swiftly grabbed everyone with his tree arms and roots, and then dug underground barely in time before the destruction were to take all of their lives.
"T-Those flames…" Said Brisingra. "My magic might work…"
"What? But you could get burned into ashes!" Cried Rita. "And unlike us, you won\'t revive!"
"B-But…" Brisingra cried.
"…Let\'s try something then." Titan quickly spread out his branches and roots.
"HMMM?! Where are you lot?! Huh?! Ah! You\'re underground?! Hahaha… PATHETIC!" Fafnir laughed. "Hiding like the rats you are?! IT WON\'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE!"
Fafnir\'s claws quickly crushed through the ground and then opened a huge hole, his jaws instantly inhaling large quantities of air and then, he quickly decided to unleash a destructive flame breath!
FLUOOOOOOSH!
POOF!
However, while he was doing that, from behind, Titan emerged as a large mass of branches and roots wrapped around the young Brisingra and his friends, as if he was a huge wood-made mech!
"[Starlight Rain]! [Shining Arrows]! [Purification]!"
FLAAAAAAAASSSSSH!!!
Brisingra instantly used the sword she held in her hands as a staff too, and unleashed a barrage of light attribute magic attacks. Huge stars fell over Fafnir, and then a rain of arrows made of light. And lastly, a purifying light that started… to actually turn off the flames!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
"NGH?! ARGH…! M-MY FLAMES…!" Fafnir panicked, his flames flickering and slowly fading away before Brisingra\'s magic! "YOUUUU!"
Fafnir roared, rushing forwards, and attempting to attack them with his huge claws and flames constantly emerging after being turned off.
"[Barrier Fist]!"
FLAAAASH!
Through Titan\'s roots, the magic powers of everyone coursed through his body and reached Brisingra\'s ring, combining their magic power with her own barrier.
Suddenly, a multi-colored, rainbow barrier surged from within the ceiling, falling down and crushing Fafnir\'s head down into the floor!
BAAAAAAAMMM…!
