Chapter 408

The three Level-9 Nagas did not split up nor did they come looking for link . They just stood where they were, along the main road to the light wall, obstructing the way and waiting to see who might turn up . They held their unique triangular spears in their hands .

The Nagas were fast and strong, and their attacks were unpredictable . Link had to be careful when dealing with even just one Naga . Now, there were three watching each other's backs . Furthermore, they didn't need to win, just draw out the battle .

As they occupied the main road, they had a wide and un.o.bstructed vision of the entire area . Anyone who wanted to sneak past them would have to make a large detour and end up wasting even more time . If Link had come alone, he definitely wouldn't have been able to deal with this barricade . Thankfully, he had Elin with him .

Elin said, "Lord, I'll use a spirit attack . Hopefully, it'll create an opening . "

Link shook his head . "It's no use . These Nagas didn't appear here naturally . They were summoned . For them to be summoned, they must have traveled through the void, and all creatures that can do that have very strong spirits . "

It wasn't just the Nagas who were like that . The demons were like that too . One time, Eleanor met a low-level demon in the Girvent Forest . The demon had managed to thwart all her spirit attacks .

"Then what do we do?"

Link thought for a moment before coming up with a plan . He took out his magic notebook and flipped to one page . Pointing at the spell structure inscribed in it, he said, "Let's use this spell . "

Elin studied the spell structure and noted . "It uses a reflection to create an illusion of us while hiding our actual position . Then… what happens?"

Link continued with his explanation . "After that, we will trigger these grenades to explode," Link said, drawing out the set of Yabba grenades he had gotten earlier . He combined the explosives into a bundle and threw them into a simple hole he had dug with his foot . "Later, when the enemy reaches this spot, use the Magician's Hand to trigger these grenades to explode, got it?"

"Yup," Elin nodded . It was very simple .

"Alright then, let's choose a suitable spot, hmmmm… . There!"

The spot Link chose was 210 feet away from the grenades . It was also behind a small stone cottage which provided cover from the grenades' explosions .

"Okay, let's begin . "

Link once again opened the magic notebook . Elin directed her Mana according to the spell structure she saw in the notebook . After the spell structure was completed, as before, Link took over part of the control of the spell and began to control the oscillating frequency of the Mana .

After half a minute, strange things started to happen .

The air surrounding Link's body rippled, and the vibrations gently extended out to an area of 300 feet before stopping .

The whole process resembled the ripples that would result when somebody touched a big water balloon, except now, the whole s.p.a.ce had become a big water balloon . It rippled violently for a moment before slowly calming down .

On the surface, there was no change in the s.p.a.ce around Link, and everything seemed normal .

Being at the center of it, Link and Elin weren't affected by the vibrations and in fact couldn't feel a thing . Outside, the three Nagas blocking the road immediately noticed the abnormality .

"Look, there he is!" one Naga shouted and pointed to the corner .

"He came over to us! Get ready, this guy can't be easy to handle . "

"He has drawn his sword . This guy is strong . Don't let him take the initiative!"

One of the Nagas bellowed a war cry . She rushed forward while her body was enveloped in deep red Battle Aura .

"Haaaa!" She screamed . Her body stretched back unbelievably, bending like a big bow drawn to its limit . Tw.a.n.g! Her body suddenly rebounded back, and the spear in her hand was flung towards Link as though shot out from a bow .

Whoos.h.!.+ The spear flew so fast that it was almost invisible . On its body, the deep red Battle Aura rotated, forming into threads of silk-like red strands that were spinning unbelievably quickly . Each of these strands emanated terrifying power .

Whoosh . It was like the spear was surrounded by a tornado . Everywhere the spear pa.s.sed, it dragged rubble and stones into the air along with it, flying towards Link .

In an instant, the spear reached "Link . ""Link" ducked to the side . CRACK! There was a loud sound as the spear penetrated deep into the ground . The spear continued burrowing downwards like an earth dragon, throwing up dirt and rubble behind it until it reached a depth of 60 feet . Finally, it stopped .

What shocking power!

This was not all .

When the first Naga threw her spear, the other two Nagas rushed forward in a coordinated attack . They split to the left and right, reaching Link about half a second after he had avoided the spear attack .

Both Nagas stabbed their spears towards "Link," who had ducked to the ground earlier .

Swoosh, swoosh . That was the sound of the two spears cutting through the air . However, clearly, the spears had hit nothing but air .

"Where did he go?"

"What?"

The two Nagas exchanged a glance in confusion at first, which was soon followed with horror .

Behind the corner 210 feet away, Link told Elin, "Now!"

Elin had been waiting for this moment . The moment she heard Link's command, she used the Magician's Hand to activate the grenades hidden in the ground .

BOOM! The simultaneous explosion resulted in an earth-shaking sound wave . The explosion also emitted blinding white light, flames, and a shock wave that threw up gravel and dirt in all directions, enveloping the two Nagas within .

Eight bombs, each with a strength of Level-5, had simultaneously exploded . Although in terms of absolute strength, these bombs weren't very strong, the knockback from the explosions was very strong .

The two Nagas were protected by their red Battle Auras and were s.h.i.+elded from the heat of the explosion . Nonetheless, even though they had defended themselves from the heat, they were still thrown back by the shockwaves .

Link had already calculated the direction that the Nagas would be blasted towards . They would land in an abandoned row of houses, and by the time they reached back about ten seconds later, they would be too late .

The first Naga who had thrown the spear was a little slower to react . She was a distance away and wasn't directly hit by the explosion from the bombs . Nonetheless, before she had time to react to the sneak attack, a human figure rushed out from an alley .

The figure was moving extremely quickly . In the blink of an eye, it was in front of her, swinging its sword towards her neck .

It was Link .

This Naga had thrown her spear and now had no weapons . Being attacked by Link, she instinctively retreated .

Link pursued at full speed .

Between the one retreating and the one advancing, it was obvious who held the advantage in terms of speed . Link easily caught up to the retreating Naga and slashed downwards with his sword . Without any weapons to defend herself with, she had no way to block . Her arm was immediately hacked off .

"Ahhhh!" The Naga screamed in pain . However, there was no one around to save her . Her two companions were thrown far away by the bombs . The rest of the Nagas had broken into Lariel City and were in an even lesser position to help her . There was no chance of her escaping .

After chopping off the Naga's arm, Link changed to using the blunt side of the sword and slammed it hard against the Naga's forehead .

Crash . A m.u.f.fled sound, the Naga jolted as her eyes turned white and she crumpled to the ground .

Link grabbed the Naga and headed back to the side alley . When he reached the alley, he stretched out his hand and grabbed Elin who was waiting there for him, placing her back onto his shoulders .

Running in the alley for a while, Link spotted a crack in the ground leading into an underground pa.s.sage . Without any hesitation, Link jumped into the pa.s.sage, which was about 30 feet deep . He ran for another 150 feet before throwing the Naga to the ground .

"Elin, Light spell," Link instructed .

Here, Link was not worried about other Nagas attacking . The pa.s.sage was very narrow . Even if there were a hundred enemies, they would have to face him one-on-one and could not surround him with their numerical advantage .

Therefore, this place was safe .

Whoosh . The Light spell illuminated the whole pa.s.sage, allowing Link and Elin to see the Naga's body carefully .

The Naga had similar facial features to humans . However, their features were much sharper . For example, their eyes were thin and long, and their eyebrows were sharp . The lips were thin as well . The most defining feature would definitely be their long, sharp tongues, which looked sharp enough to slice through paper .

As for body figures, they were way better than humans .

The proportions of the Naga's body were extremely shapely . They had a beautiful waist, big b.r.e.a.s.t.s, lovely thighs and long legs, just like the most beautiful celebrities on earth . Their clothing was also extremely revealing, covering only their b.r.e.a.s.t.s and their groin . The style was similar to that of Amazon female warriors .

However, these were merely their external features . Ultimately, they were servants of the G.o.d of Destruction . If one were to fall for them or have any feelings for them, one would soon discover what true despair was .

Link tapped the face of the Naga with his sword . Feeling the touch of the cold blade, the Naga woke up .

She looked first at her missing arm and then at Link . Suddenly, she moved, swinging her leg to kick at Link .

Swish . Link swung his sword and cut off the Naga's leg .

The Naga snorted as it came to terms with its present situation . She glared at Link and said in spite, "Warrior, your victory is only temporary . Soon, you will begin to realize the taste of destruction!"

"Destruction? That is exactly what I want to ask you about . " Link said as he pointed his sword at the snake's neck .

However, in the next moment, the Naga did something that left Link and Elin in shock .

The Naga's mouth started to fill with blood until it was overflowing . Along with the blood, there were internal organs and bits of other things . With her final breath, the Naga gasped in a voice that reeked of blood, "Human Warrior, wait patiently . Soon, you will see the most terrifying future!"

After that, the Naga's head slumped, and she was dead .

Link checked the Naga's injuries before saying gravely, "She forcefully destroyed her own organs from the inside .

"Are they that cruel even to themselves?" Elin was at a loss for words . How much pain would you feel if your internal organs were all destroyed? She couldn't even begin to imagine it .

Link looked at his mission status . It was still incomplete . That meant that he was not yet able to recover his ability to use spells . With a gloomy expression on his face, he stood up and said, "We won't get anything else from this Naga . Let's go, we must continue on . "
