Chapter 964: Breakthrough
Reina transformed into her Frost Dragon form, gliding through the air with relentless agility. She unleashed draconic incantations as she attacked, all the while searching for the perfect moment to release her Zero-Degree Dragon Breath.
The Double-Headed Alchemical Golem was surrounded by eight massive shields, each seven or eight meters across and forged from ice and fire. As it maneuvered, nearly every spell was intercepted; the few that reached its body merely burst into harmless sparks, as if fireworks blossomed across its surface.
Many members of the Mage Legion were already wounded. Fifty legion mages had to huddle together just to barely hold the line, relying on their combined chanting and spell formations for defense. Their offensive spells, at best, were little more than a token gesture.
The Double-Headed Alchemical Golem stood near the Plane Path, never straying far. Even so, it alone was enough to suppress Leon’s entire group of subordinates.
Suddenly, Hubert finally found an opening and charged to within ten meters of the Double-Headed Alchemical Golem—a range close enough for him to launch an attack.
Slaughter, his warhammer, swept forward in a torrent of white energy, the force so intense it made the very air tremble, crashing down hard on the Double-Headed Alchemical Golem.
In an instant, two of the giant shields spinning around the Double-Headed Alchemical Golem appeared before Hubert. With his drumstick forged from the bones of an ancient Venom Dragon, he tore through one of the flaming shields in a single strike.
With one shield shattered, the Double-Headed Alchemical Golem immediately summoned a third to fill the gap. But this time, its defenses were left with a subtle flaw. Reina, who had been waiting for such an opportunity in the sky, didn’t hesitate—she closed her draconic jaws, and icy blue light began to gather in her mouth.
The next moment, a beam of icy blue light erupted from Reina’s mouth, transforming into a pillar of frost that pierced straight through the gap in the defenses, striking the Double-Headed Alchemical Golem’s body.
