Chapter 1319 Great Combined Efforts
-----
"Huh? Are you sure these were Rank 9? They were too weak." Miranda said in surprise. "I remember that Aquarius Trial was harder than this. The bosses were Rank 9 in the beginning, no?"
"Looks like the ones here are much weaker, or we've simply grown stronger, Miranda." Benladann smiled. "I've already reached almost the Middle Stage of Rank 9 myself, so my Rank is shared with yours... Then again, Chaos Magic is specially deadly against almost anything, and these monsters were small fries. I bet there must be something more to it... I hope, or this will be disappointing."
Of course, it wasn't just brute magic power completely, as Miranda had also put a few thousand points of Divine Power into her blast, and she was also wearing many accessories, clothes, and a black wand that boosted her magic spell power even further, all courtesy of Drake's crafting.
"Well, our husband's crafting is superb, these equipment he has given to us has made our magic much stronger." Miranda smiled, as she had already become used to talk openly about Drake being her husband too.
"It's not like it is completely over yet." Benladann smiled, separating her giant Battle Axe, Hel, into two parts, and imbuing her entire body with her Divine Powers and Chaos Energy. The powers of the Chaos Spirits and the Chaotic Beast that she had turned into her Familiars were also being shared into her powers. "Let's see... &123;Chaotic Rush&125;!"
FLAAAAASH!
Benladann rushed to the beasts, which kept pouring by the hundreds from the volcanic pool, in less than a second, she arrived in front of them and swung her two gigantic axes at the same time, unleashing devastating slicing blows while releasing powerful shockwaves of chaotic energy everywhere.
"&123;Chaotic Cross Slash&125;!"
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLAAASH!
Over fifty monsters were instantly cut down into pieces, their boosted stats and defenses being utterly useless against the corrosive power of Chaos, capable of ignoring a part of the defenses of a foe, and easily cutting down these behemoths, which one alone could easily bring the end of an entire country!
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! CRAAAAASSSHH!!!
Meanwhile, Hector, Kraxka, and Larzak, were taking down a small group of monsters that were CRAAAAAASSSHHH!!!
Once Benladann finally landed on the ground, the floor fellow her legs shattered into pieces in the form of a huge crater, gigantic explosions of black chaotic lightning surged, electrifying, and weakening any nearby foe at the same time!
TRUUUUUMM...!
"Woah, did I just do that?" Benladann sometimes had a hard time believing her own strength.
"You certainly did!" Drake laughed, holding both Skadi and Uller with each of his enormous dragon claws, and making both weapons grow to his own, behemoth size. "&123;Divine Frost Weapon Arts&125;: &123;Endless Freezing Dance&125;!"
Drake rushed forward with his gigantic draconic body, moving at an incredibly fast speed despite his huge body, slashing apart everything on his path and devastating his surroundings. No monsters could escape his tyrannical power!
SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! SLASH! CRAAAAASSSHH!!!
Meanwhile, Hector, Kraxka, and Larzak, were taking down a small group of monsters that were coming from the other, left side of the volcanic pool, which was composed of over thirty of these powerful Rank 9 beasts.
"&123;Valkyrie Magic&125;: &123;Heaven's Army Charge&125;!" Hector roared, raising his spear into the skies as he summoned manifestations of Light themselves, "Valkyries" which were part of his innate Light Elemental Magic.
The Valkyries, resembling an army of strong women made of golden light, wearing armor, golden masks, and holding white, feathery wings. Every one of them were wielding golden weapons. Hector was able to originally only manifest one, but through this spell, that single Valkyrie would multiply into an army temporarily!
"CHARGE!!!" The Valkyries roared, flying towards their foes and impaling the monsters bodies with countless golden light spears, countless explosions of light spread across the battlefield as they all fought bravely.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH! CRAAASH! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
The Valkyries were powerful at first, but many of them were dying after taking a few hits, they wouldn't be able to hold back all the monsters at once.
However, the two Lizardmen were there for Hector's aid... Or well, the Dragonmen as they had evolved after drinking Drake's Divine Dragon Blood.
Using their large wings, they flew across the skies while unleashing devastating magic. Kraxka channeled his innate Fire and Ice Magic together, combining them into Freezing Flames.
"Don't worry, my son-in-law, your father-in-law is here to protect your back!" Kraxka roared, unleashing hundreds of magic circles. "&123;Divine Ice & Fire Magic&125;: &123;Freezing Flames Meteors&125;!"
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
Over a hundred meteors made of ice and covered on freezing flames emerged one after another, falling over the monsters like gigantic nukes!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOOM! BOOOOOMMM!!!
The freezing flames spread throughout the entire place, freezing to death many of the gigantic and fearful monsters, while at the same time freezing the legs of the others, so they couldn't move properly.
"ROOAARRR!" A large pack of Infernal Wolves rushed towards Hector as they made their way through the army of Valkyries.
CLASH! CLASH! CRAAASH!
The young man swung his golden spear and unleashed beams of light against them, but was barely handling on all of them at the same time, although he slayed a few, they were over twenty of them, the beasts had decided to take him down by unifying their strength.
"That's not happening!" The voice of Larzak echoed behind the pack of Infernal Wolves, as his fists reached the beasts, unleashing gigantic shockwaves of light and darkness elements combined together! "&123;Divine Eclipse Magic&125;: &123;Eclipsing Fists&125;!"
BAAAM! BAAAM! BAAAM! BAAAM! BAAAAMMM...!
His fists unleashed the power of both his elemental magic and the Ki he had been utilizing and practicing, now evolved into Divine Power, he had figured out a way to manipulate it so it could spread around his fists and form a barrier of sorts, enhancing his physical prowess even further.
As the gigantic beasts were blown away one after another, the trio unified as a group once more and continued their battle alongside everybody else.
The Venerable of Flames glanced in disbelief at the coordination and strength of Drake's allies, he had never seen such an unified party ever before on his entire long life!
"Impressive... But can you handle what's coming in the Third Wave though?!"
RUMBLE!
The Lava Pool started to shake furiously, as a gigantic claw surged from within...!
CRAAAASH!
"ROOOOOAAAARRRRR!"
The Volcanic King had finally woken up from his slumber.
