As soon as the words were spoken.
In sight, the dragon-blooded kobold, with a figure like a steel tower, stomped on the ground with force.
Starting from its feet, the ground cracked like a spiderweb.
"Boom!"
Its knees slightly bent.
The next moment, with the ground shattering loudly, its body shot out like a cannonball.
So fast!
Gauss was shocked.
He had killed a total of two commander-level demons.
The first one was a goblin chief who died in a roasting fire, the second was the petrified bull from before.
The former did not involve a direct confrontation, while the latter was taken down through an ambush, as the petrified bull was inherently a species with a "biased specialty".
The speed of the dragon-blooded kobold before him was the fastest among the three.
Its body seemed to inherit part of the power from the red dragon, giving it the most explosive physical strength among demons of the same level.
Its strong physique ripped through the air, producing a blast sound on the surface of its skin, with crimson scales stretching into a striking red glow in the air.
Gauss caught a glimpse of the shamans and casters behind the dragon-blooded kobold.
Presumably, they also provided it with considerable buffs?
The distance of nearly two hundred meters was halved in the blink of an eye under such a furious sprint.
At this speed, even if the Fireball Technique could potentially be immune to much of the damage, accurately hitting it head-on would still be difficult.
Its mobility was too strong.
This was also a major weakness of the Fireball Technique.
"Lord Gauss, please stand behind me!"
Albena stood in the front.
"Bull’s Strength!" Aaliyah used the enhancement branch to boost strength.
Serdur also quickly released several enhanced Blessing spells.
Soon, a white light shone from everyone.
Then, Ying’s ability wrapped Aaliyah and Serdur, swiftly moving them behind Gauss and others to a safe area.
Albena voluntarily stomped forward a few steps.
Unnoticed, her body was already covered in a magnificent suit of armor.
Under the sunlight, the blue magic patterns on the armor’s surface suddenly lit up, projecting an indestructible aura.
Albena, holding her shield in one hand and a giant axe in the other, stood in front of Gauss like an unshakable fortress.
Honestly, standing behind her, Gauss actually felt quite secure.
This feeling was unfamiliar.
While thinking this, his hands didn’t pause.
The magic power within him surged like a tide.
His entire body was energized, and beneath his loose robe, the blue magic scale patterns activated by the hardened scales bloodline covered his body, climbing up to his defined jawline.
Magic power quickly gathered at the tip of his white magic wand.
In front of him, the dragon-blooded kobold charged forward like a heavy armored truck, fiercely colliding with the immovable Albena!
"Boom!!!"
In the instant of collision, sparks flew.
The shockwave from the impact exploded around, stirring up clouds of dust.
Albena raised her shield forward, and the ground beneath her feet instantly cracked.
The intense shock force from the dragon-blooded kobold transmitted to her giant shield, releasing a bright yellow light on the shield’s surface, redirecting most of the impact energy to the ground with a deep thud.
A golden energy shield field formed around Albena like a crystalline honeycomb, firmly protecting her.
Behind.
Gauss, already prepared, seized the stalemated moment.
The white magic wand in his hand shone brilliantly.
His eyes quickly locked onto the dragon-blooded kobold.
"Enhanced Casting."
"Magic Missile, seven rounds!"
With continuous practice, the number of magic missiles Gauss could release simultaneously had quietly increased from six to seven.
This number would continue to rise.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
...
Seven sapphire missiles floated before him, forming a perfect rotating circle.
They looked like some kind of magical array.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
The seven missiles, like comets endowed with life, shot out instantly with Gauss’s wand wave.
They trailed dazzling streaks, bypassing Albena’s shield, to bombard the dragon-blooded kobold’s body.
The magic missiles in his hands had evolved from their initial form.
They were more numerous, more powerful, and could slightly adjust their flight posture in mid-air.
This made the effect of the magic missiles more flexible and variable.
"Bang! Bang! Bang Bang Bang...!"
The roaring explosions of force field energy rang out one after another.
All the magic missiles solidly exploded on the dragon-blooded kobold’s body.
The kobold, already in a stalemate, had no leverage after this sudden barrage and was blasted ten meters away.
Gauss squinted his eyes slightly.
The dust settled.
The dragon-blooded kobold knelt on one knee, its scales torn open under the rapid impact of the seven-round enhanced magic missiles, revealing the bleeding flesh beneath.
However, there was no look of pain on its face.
On the contrary, it seemed agitated by the crimson blood, and the red glow in its eyes burned brighter.
It slowly stood up.
The blood oozing from its body quickly vaporized, ignited like fuel, enveloping its body in scorching steam.
In the blink of an eye, its wounds completed a series of processes—stopping bleeding, scabbing, shedding, tissue growth, and healing.
"Roar!!"
It opened its jaws, roaring angrily.
Ripples of sound waves spread through the air like they had taken physical form.
