Chapter 252 When Dragon Grade Monsters Clash
As Gideon and his clones charged through the snow, the princess unleashed a massive roar that echoed through the icy expanse. The sound disrupted the harmony of the shadowy clones, causing some to lose their footing and dissolve into ephemeral shadows.
"Using your roar to reduce my numbers, are you? Nice strategy," Gideon taunted, he wasn't about to back down. "But unfortunately, you will have to use a better approach than that if you are going to end this battle."
As the clones closed in, dozens of green magic circles appeared in the air again. They fired out the same hot, greenish acid-like substance that melted the earth on contact. Yet, Gideon and his clones easily dodged each projectile, moving with a fluidity that defied the chaotic onslaught. They sidestepped to the left and right, leaping into the air to avoid the lethal rain of acid.@@@@
Closing in on the princess's large dragon form, Gideon exclaimed, "Why are you just standing there? It's like you are begging to be attacked."
Inwardly, the princess mused, "I'm not moving because your weapons wouldn't be powerful enough to deal me any damage. Dragon scales are the single most powerful substances in the world; nothing else can even come close to comparing. So, when you swing those toys of yours and they shatter, I'll make vines erupt from the earth and trap you.
Then, I'll stomp on you with my leg, instantly ending your pathetic life."
Finally closing in, Gideon swung his blades. To the princess's surprise, his blades effortlessly cut through her scales like a hot knife through butter. The realization sent a shockwave of astonishment through her draconic form as the battle took an unexpected turn.
Microseconds later, a massive crater was created where she once stood—a proof of her absurd speed. She moved so fast that she had already shifted several feet away from her original location before the earth even realized what hit it. The battlefield echoed with the remnants of her astonishing speed, leaving a sense of awe and anticipation in the frigid air.
As Gideon adjusted to the sudden change in dynamics, he prepared for the next phase of the confrontation, realizing that facing the princess in her human form brought a new set of challenges and surprises.
As the princess closed in, she twirled in the air, intending to use the sharp blade-like end of her tail to cut Gideon down from head to toe. Bringing down her scale-like sword with a massive swing, thanks to her twisting momentum in the air, Gideon swiftly brought up his twin short swords to block the attack from landing.
He raised his swords overhead, positioning them in an X-like way, intercepting the attack at the middle of his blades.
The clash was so powerful that it sent out a massive shockwave, causing snow to billow into the air like a frozen tempest. Gideon's feet slightly dug into the earth, further causing cracks to ripple all around.
In the aftermath of the powerful clash, Gideon and the princess found themselves momentarily pushed back, with the princess landing on her feet sevral feets away. Without wasting any time, she lunched foward again.
With a swift and fluid movement, the princess twisted her body, her movements looked like she was dancing, aiming to capitalize on her superior speed. She brought her tail around once again, it's edge gleamed in the moonlight, attempting to catch Gideon off guard. The blade-like tip of her tail aimed for Gideon's abdomen, a lethal dance orchestrated with skill.
Anticipating the incoming strike, Gideon's instincts kicked in. He swiftly leaned backwards, his head touched the snow as he evaded the deadly arc of the dragon princess's tail. The whistling sound of the tail cutting through the air lingered as Gideon smoothly moved, putting his agility on display.
