No notification of gaining summon points!
Nothing at all!
That's why Luo Jiajun instantly realized a fact.
At this moment when the battle seemed to be finally over, he could say with more certainty than anyone else...
Storm Bear Voliril!
Not dead yet!
Added URL 106
"Shut up!" Luo Jiajun's low growl pierced the brief silence like an ice pick, freezing the smugness on Shuicheng Xuefeng's face.
The little girl froze in place, her mouth slightly agape, staring blankly at Luo Jiajun's profile, which showed no sign of relaxation but rather appeared even more solemn. Luo Jiajun's sharp gaze, like that of a hawk piercing through the darkness, was fixed on the thick, swirling dust that obscured the massive body of the storm bear.
"It's not dead yet! Everyone, don't let your guard down!"
Luo Jiajun's voice was resolute and carried an undeniable sense of urgency, clearly reaching the ears of every teammate around him in the already silent night.
"This is impossible!"
Xuefeng bristled instantly, like a kitten whose tail had been stepped on, and pointed at the cloud of dust, shrilly retorting to Luo Jiajun:
"Are you blind? Such a huge beam of lightning went right through its eye! I should have charred its head! How could it not be dead! You're just jealous of my achievement! You big pervert! You're so petty!"
She couldn't accept that her all-out, near-perfect attack had been so blatantly negated. She knew better than anyone the destructive power of that pillar of light, which contained almost all of her controllable lightning storm! How could the Storm Bear possibly survive such an attack?
However, just as Yukikaze finished speaking...
“Roar, ahh ...
A roar, more shrill and frenzied than ever before, filled with pain and a destructive desire, suddenly erupted from the depths of the smoke and dust!
The sound seemed to come from the depths of hell, carrying a chilling cold that could freeze one's soul, instantly shattering the brief tranquility of the battlefield!
Immediately afterwards, the earth let out a desperate groan!
"boom--!"
From the center of the smoke and dust, a visible, ring-shaped wave, mixed with flying sand and stones and destructive shockwaves, suddenly spread out in all directions like a tsunami!
What a pity!
That was Storm Bear's ultimate attack, launched with all his might when he was completely blind and on the verge of despair!
In an instant, wherever the shockwave passed, the ground shattered and rolled up like a fragile biscuit!
The already crumbling and dilapidated buildings, faced with this unstoppable force, let out deafening wails before collapsing!
"Oh no!" Delaire and Rosemon cried out in the air, but could only watch helplessly as the scene below instantly turned into a purgatory of destruction.
Rita and 2B tried to defend themselves the instant the shockwave hit, but the force was too violent. They were violently thrown like leaves in a storm, crashing into the collapsing wall behind them and instantly swallowed up by the rubble that poured down!
Despite her exhaustion from the depletion of her spatial power, Akiyama Rinko attempted to activate her spatial escape technique again, but the shockwave was too fast and too wide! She didn't have time to cast the spell and could only curl up immediately. She was swept up by the violent shockwave and slammed heavily into a pile of ruins, disappearing from sight.
Luo Jiajun and Shuicheng Xuefeng, who were closest to the storm bear, were the first to be hit!
The instant the shockwave erupted, Luo Jiajun's pupils contracted sharply. Almost instinctively, he stretched out his arm and pulled Xuefeng, who was still in shock and trying to argue, into his arms! At the same time, he twisted his body to the limit, using his back to meet the overwhelming destructive force!
"boom--!"
A dull, suffocating thud followed!
"Boom--!"
Smoke, dust, gravel, and broken steel bars poured down like a waterfall, instantly burying Luo Jiajun and Xuefeng!
……
Later.
In the center of the battlefield, the Storm Bear's massive body loomed in and out of view amidst the smoke and dust. It stood upright once more, its eyes now transformed into two terrifying, bottomless blood-filled craters constantly gushing thick, black blood!
The excruciating pain and utter darkness drove it into a hysterical frenzy!
“Roar! Roar! Roar—!”
It lost its reason, lost its purpose, and was left only with the instinct to destroy!
Those enormous hands were like out-of-control battering rams, wildly swinging without any order! Each swing, seemingly hitting the air, was actually imbued with the violent power of wind elements, forming giant wind blades that were visible to the naked eye and capable of cutting through steel, whistling and slashing in all directions! Or they would slam the ground hard, kicking up large chunks of gravel and broken concrete, hurling them like cannonballs at any place they sensed a significant change in airflow!
The entire battlefield has been completely transformed into a death storm zone composed of wind blades, rubble, and dust! Any creature that tries to approach will be torn to shreds by this indiscriminate and frenzied attack!
And right at the heart of this chaos and destruction—suddenly!
A jet-black figure, like a crimson meteor tearing through the night sky, suddenly pierced through the ruins swept by the storm!
It's Anne Lorze!
But at this moment, she is no longer the petite and delicate little girl she once was!
Bathed in moonlight, her figure was tall and graceful, her tight-fitting black outfit outlining her breathtaking curves, and her long, flowing hair danced wildly in the wind.
That face, which was originally childlike, now had cold, hard lines and a disdainful look in its eyes, like ice that had never melted for millennia, full of steely will and demonic charm—this was her posture at the height of her power, the true Iron Witch!
At this moment, what Annerose held tightly in her hand was no longer the broken knife full of nicks, but a complete demonic artifact exuding an ominous and sharp aura—the Vajra Yaksha!
"Beast! Die!"
At this moment, Anne-López's voice was cold and authoritative, carrying a kind of magic that seemed to penetrate the soul.
She lightly touched the ruins with her toes, her figure moving with ghostly speed, transforming into a dark red streak that tore through the air, heading straight for the gap in the Storm Bear's wildly waving paws! Her target was the Storm Bear's relatively vulnerable neck!
However, just as the demonic sword in her hand was about to strike—
"Roar!"
The Storm Bear, which had initially appeared to be attacking haphazardly, suddenly slammed its massive left paw down with incredible angle and speed, accompanied by a piercing shriek that seemed to tear through space, precisely in the direction from which Annerose was attacking!
Before the palm strike even arrived, the terrifying wind pressure, powerful enough to crush steel, had already descended!
Although this beast was blind and completely insane, its control over the "wind" was already ingrained in its very bones, transforming into its most primal instinct!
Even though he lost his sight, he still possessed a terrifying ability to perceive the most subtle changes in the airflow around him!
The air currents created by Annerose's high-speed movement were clearly exposed to Storm Bear's perception "vision" the moment she entered the attack range, just like a lighthouse in the dark!
"clang--!"
A piercing metallic clang was accompanied by a deafening explosion of energy!
Anneros's demonic sword, Vajra Yaksha, slashed fiercely at the tip of the storm bear's giant claw! The dark red sword energy collided violently with the raging wind element, erupting with dazzling light!
In an instant! The Storm Bear's claws, which were as hard as adamantite, were actually severed in half by the Vajra Yaksha's sharp edge!
However, Anne-Lorze was also shaken by the enormous recoil and the terrifying wind pressure that followed, causing her blood to surge and her body to fall uncontrollably to the ground. She finally landed relatively steadily on a sloping floor slab.
"Tsk...what a troublesome guy!"
Anne-Loz frowned, spat under her breath, and a look of seriousness flashed in her eyes.
She never expected that, in its completely frenzied state, the storm bear, with its absolute control over the wind, would launch such a precise and swift counterattack!
The omnipresent wind pressure was like an invisible swamp, greatly limiting her proud agility and speed, forcibly leveling the gap in flexibility between the two sides!
As Annerose immediately took action again, little did she know that she had become the only clear target in the Storm Bear's chaotic perception, like the only light source in the darkness, attracting all the rage and aggression of this dying behemoth!
"Roar--!"
Storm Bear locked onto Annerose's location once more, its massive right hand tearing through the air with a shrill whistle, carrying several giant wind blades, and descending upon Annerose like a net from heaven!
At the same time, its massive body leaned forward slightly, and its other giant hand slammed into the ground, sending countless pebbles flying like cannonballs, which were then carried by the airflow and shot towards Annerose from all directions!
Anne-Loz's eyes narrowed, and she twirled the demon sword in her hand, creating deadly sword flowers.
In an instant, dark red sword energy bloomed around her like blooming spider lilies!
Sword energy clashed and annihilated with the incoming wind blades and rubble, producing a continuous series of explosions! Her figure weaved, dodged, and counterattacked between the sword light and the storm, each movement leaving afterimages, and each sword swing precisely targeting the storm bear's weak points, attempting to tear through its defenses and find an opportunity for a fatal blow.
In an instant, dark red sword light and wind blades intertwined wildly in the center of the battlefield, and a large amount of rubble turned into dust in the energy collision!
This battle between the Iron Witch and the Storm Beast is a clash of ultimate power and skill, violent and gorgeous, full of danger yet with a breathtaking beauty!
Draiel in the sky stared in disbelief—that cold, beautiful figure dancing in the storm and battling giant beasts, that black robe, that longsword radiating an ominous, demonic power…
All of this gave her a strange sense of familiarity. You Lin, you want Mei, I'm empty, you Lin, are you there...?
"That woman... her aura... how do I feel it..."
Derek muttered to himself, his eyes filled with disbelief, "Why does it feel... a bit like... Annerose? No... it can't be? But this power..."
"Dreyer! Stop daydreaming!"
Just then, Rosemon's anxious voice interrupted Dreyer's thoughts, "Master and the others are buried down there! We must go down and rescue them immediately!"
Delaire snapped back to reality, only then remembering the crisis of Luo Jiajun and the others being buried.
She suppressed the turmoil in her heart and, together with the Rose Beast, quickly descended the altitude, swooping down towards the ruins where Luo Jiajun and Xuefeng were buried.
Thanks to the subtle connection between her and Luo Jiajun, the Rose Beast quickly pinpointed the location. With a wave of her jade-like hand, countless resilient vines, like nimble snakes, burrowed into the cracks of the ruins, carefully clearing away the rubble.
"Here it is!" Rose Beast exclaimed, pointing to a corner that was covered by a huge concrete slab.
Draiel immediately gathered his magic, and a gentle yet powerful arcane force slowly lifted the heavy concrete slab.
Dust settled down, revealing the scene below.
A tall, robust figure covered in dark blue keratinous skin was seen in a protective posture, his back hunched and his arms crossed in front of him, using his broad back and burly arms to firmly hold back the heavy wall that was collapsing above him!
In that firm embrace, Mizuki Yukikaze curled up, miraculously unharmed except for a little dust and scratches!
Beneath the dark blue skin of that burly figure, the muscles were bulging as if cast in steel, and restless blue-white arcs of electricity occasionally flickered across their surface, emitting a soft "sizzling" sound.
A non-human aura, a mixture of violent electric current and chilling killing intent, spread out.
"Master...Master?" Rosemon looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar figure before her, her voice trembling with uncertainty.
As if it had heard the call, the dark blue figure slowly raised its head. Beneath the helmet-like keratin layer, a pair of eyes burning with eerie blue flames swept over, their gaze cold, sharp, and filled with an inhuman sense of oppression.
It was—Luo Jiajun, who had transformed into the [Biological Terminator] form!
"Rose Beast..."
A deep, hoarse, inhuman voice, like the friction of metal, emanated from Luo Jiajun's throat, carrying a magnetic quality that was unsettling.
He slowly withdrew his arm, which was supporting the broken wall above, and the heavy concrete block was easily pushed aside by his terrifying strength.
He looked down at Xuefeng in his arms.
Xuefeng also looked up, staring blankly at Luo Jiajun's ferocious yet powerful face in his Terminator form.
Feeling the surging, violent electricity emanating from Luo Jiajun's Terminator form up close, the little girl felt no fear whatsoever. Instead, the dormant thunderstorm power within her body resonated with a strange sense of...familiarity.
Not to mention, during that devastating shockwave and the moment the collapse occurred, it was this seemingly terrifying body that held her firmly in its arms, shielding her from all harm.
A complex emotion, unprecedented in its kind, mixed with a sense of security, curiosity, and a touch of inexplicable excitement, quietly began to grow in her heart. She even subconsciously reached out her small hand and gently touched the arc of electricity dancing on Luo Jiajun's arm. The tingling sensation made her tremble slightly, but she did not pull her hand back.
Luo Jiajun in his Terminator form seemed unconcerned about Xuefeng's little tricks. His gaze, burning with a ghostly blue flame, passed over Xuefeng and the Rose Beast, and was directed toward the center of the battlefield—the area where sword light and storm clashed fiercely and roared incessantly.
There, Annerose is engaged in a thrilling life-or-death battle with a completely berserk storm bear!
“...Anne Lorze?”
Luo Jiajun's inhumanly deep voice rang out again, carrying a subtle, almost imperceptible fluctuation.
He gently withdrew his arms from Xuefeng.
Then, he straightened his nearly three-meter-tall Terminator-like body. His dark blue, keratinous skin gleamed coldly in the moonlight, and crackling arcs of electricity coursed around him, as if gathering destructive power.
He didn't look at the Rose Beast and Dreyer again, nor did he pay attention to Yukikaze's complicated gaze.
He took a step.
"Boom!"
Heavy footsteps pounded on the broken rubble, making a dull thud.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
One step, another step.
In his Terminator form, Luo Jiajun, like a demon god returned from hell, walked resolutely toward the direction where Storm Bear and Annerose were locked in fierce combat, carrying a chilling killing intent and leaping lightning.
With each step, the ground seemed to tremble slightly. Those dark blue, fiery eyes were fixed on the Storm Bear's massive and frenzied figure, and an even more violent and oppressive aura began to rise and condense around him.
