BXBX NOVEL Chapter 508 Overwhelm
"*Achooo* Angus, burst her!!" said Anna while sneezing again.
Angus didn\'t reply and only chuckled at Anna before entering the arena. Princess Brigida immediately charged Angus with her spear halberd as soon as he entered the arena. Elder Yawan kept silent at this since the battle technically started the moment the two fighters entered the arena.
Angus kept his calm and shot a few firebolts at her rapidly. *Bam* *Bam* *Bam* The Firebolts stop Brigida\'s charge as she parries all of them. She is surprised at the force behind this first-grade common spell.
Normally, she could ignore such an attack. Firebolt spell is often used as a distraction when fighting against high-grade combatants. A combatant could easily cover their body with mana to defend against this common fire spell.
However, she didn\'t expect these small firebolts to have the same power as punches from a second-grade combatant. Although Brigida will not be injured by such an attack, her safety barrier will automatically work and protect her from it.
Using her safety barrier for such a common attack is a waste. While parrying, she also tries to move forwards at Angus who is still near the edge of the arena. All she needs is one hit to make him out of the bond.
Unfortunately, this one hit is impossible for her unless Brigida has monstrous power or speed. As Brigida slowly goes near, Angus decides to cast another spell with one hand in the middle of his firebolts [2nd Circle - Flame Wave].
*WHOOOSH* A wall of fire surges and comes at Brigida. Sensing the flame wave heat, Brigida decides to flip back, dodging the burst of fire.
"Hoo… Let\'s see if you can\'t dodge this [2nd Circle - Fireball]." said Angus.
*BOOM* *BOOM* *BOOM* Angus sent many fast-moving Fireballs to Brigida and his surroundings. Seeing a torrent of Fireballs at her and the surrounding, she jumps high into the air only to see Angus point his finger at her.
[2nd Circle - Lightning Bolt] *Bzzzt* *CracK* A fast lightning bolt hit Brigida in the air and hit one of her safety barriers. Ignoring this, she charges Angus from the air. But Angus had already cast another spell.
A big magic circle appeared in front of him before shining brightly [2nd Circle - Fire Oil]. *Whoooshh* A massive amount of Fire Oil comes out from the magic circle. Angus uses more mana to increase the Fire Oil quantity than the usual amount.
*BOOOOM* As soon as the flammable Fire Oil touched the heat left by the previous Fireballs, it exploded and enveloped half of the arena along with Brigida in the air. Half of the arena turns into a blazing flame.
This is one of the Fire Oil properties that Angus like. It is flammable but also has a long burning effect. If it is not because of its high requirement for mana and spell calculation, everyone will use such a spell, especially with its low complexity.
*Crack* *Crack* *Crack* A shattering sound was heard inside the blazing flame. *WHOOOSHH* A gust of mana spread around and pushed the surrounding fire. In the middle of the crater, Angus could see Brigida with some ash all over her.
He also finds she is completely fine after being in the middle of Angus\' spell. Although it is only a low circle spell, Angus\' fire spells are more lethal than ordinary ones. Not only does it contain [Hellfire] ancient power, but Angus also modified all his fire spells.
\'His fire spell is more dangerous than I thought!!\' thought Brigida while keeping her cold face.
[Swift Charge] Suddenly, Brigida covers her body with mana and charges at Angus. In a moment, she is already getting near Angus and brandishing her Halberd [Halberd Art - Thunderous Sweep].
*Crack* *Clang* Unexpectedly, Brigida\'s destructive skill hit something made of red crystal [3rd Circle - Flame Crystal] [3rd Circle - Fire Barrier]. The red crystal is shaped like a burning fire but in a solid state. A strong Fire Barrier also envelops the Flame Crystal and increases its defense.
Angus predicted Brigida\'s counterattack and was ready to cast any defensive spell. With his current mind power and intelligence, Angus can cast two third-circle spells at the same time. Since both spells are fire based, he could quickly cast them.
[Fire Cast - Fire Wyrm] *GROOAR* Suddenly, a big Fire Wyrm appeared behind Brigida and tried to pin her down. *BOOOM* Brigida manages to run away on time but feels another heat from her back.
*Whoosh* *Hiissshh* A gigantic snake made of fire appeared and charged at her [Fire Cast - Fire Serpent]. Brigida jumps high into the sky to dodge the incoming Fire Serpent.
"*Achooo* Big sis.. Big sis… It\'s Onyx!! Onyx is on fire!!" said Anna excitedly while pointing at the fire serpent.
"Anna, calm down. It\'s not Onyx." said Jayna while holding the naughty girl.
*Hisshh* hissing Onyx in a low voice. Onyx wants to protest that the fire snake couldn\'t be compared to him, but he knows Anna may ask for something ridiculous if he comments about it.
During this moment, the Fire Serpent begins to spin around and shoot countless fire sparks nearby, increasing the heat in the surrounding area. *Snap* *BOOOM* Angus snapped his hand and an explosion suddenly appeared from Brigida [Fire Cast - Explosion]
"Urgghh!!" groaned Brigida in pain while still in the air.
"Hmm… Like I thought it didn\'t have too much destructive power." said Angus as he observed his spell.
"Well, it doesn\'t matter. *Snap* *Snap* *Snap*" said Angus as he began to snap his finger continuously.
*Bom* *Bom* *Bom* *Bom* A series of small explosions keep hitting Brigida as she moves in the air to dodge the Fire Wyrm. Despite keeping moving, she still gets hit by all the small explosions appearing out of nowhere.
In the middle of moving, Brigida realizes the explosion only gives her small damage. Most of the force is defended by the mana that covers her body. Still, it annoys her as each explosion is deafening and blinding her for a moment.
If it is not because of her trained sense and strong body, she may already get caught by the Fire Wyrm behind her. She also needs to be careful of the big Fire Serpent on the ground that seems to wait for any opportunity to attack her.
"Alright, let\'s top up the game [2nd Circle - Fire Oil]." said Angus.
Another bright magic circle appeared in front of Angus and shot a large amount of Fire Oil. *BOOOM* Once again, the arena is enveloped by blazing flame and explosion. Fortunately, Brigida noticed this and decided to escape up high into the sky.
While flying up high, Brigida rolls over in the air and imbues her Halberd with lightning. Using centrifugal force, she threw over her Halberd to Angus [Halberd Art - Thunder Thrust].
*BOOM* *Crack* *BOOM* Like thunder falling down, the Halberd moves fast, penetrates the Fire Wyrm, Fire Serpent, and instantly reaches Angus. Seeing the scattering Fire Crystal, Brigida thought her attack was finally going through.
At this moment, she feels pain in her stomach and a blood-flowing sensation. Then, she finds her Halberd actually penetrating her armor and stabs on her stomach.
"Urghh… How?!!" groaned Brigida as she pulled out the Halberd before falling to the ground.
Brigida didn\'t realize Angus actually threw back Brigida\'s Halberd to her. His movement is faster and flawless. The Halberd looks like it didn\'t hit him but just changed direction without losing momentum or force.
Unfortunately, the Halberd is an artifact with some connection with Brigida. Otherwise, the Halberd will penetrate Brigida and leave a big hole in her stomach. Angus also didn\'t hold back and imbued the Halberd with his own mana to control the artifact for a moment.
*Bam* Brigida managed to reduce her falling speed at the last moment while holding her pain. Before catching her breath, she rolled over the ground as the gigantic Fire Serpent launched at her.
After getting enhanced by Angus\' Fire Oil, the Fire Serpent becomes bigger and solid even after getting destroyed by Brigida\'s previous attack. It also has the characteristics of a snake and is fast at charging attacks.
While dodging the Fire Serpent and the incoming Fire Wyrm in the air, Brigida loses more blood from her wound. Ordinary combatants will have difficulty controlling their mana and body with such a big fatal wound on their bodies.
However, Brigida somehow didn\'t lose her composure and could still use [Swift Charge] to dodge. During this moment, Angus didn\'t do anything. He only observed her before looking at the Nergal group from not far from the arena.
\'Weird… Why didn\'t they think of giving up? It is clear she has no chance of winning. Moreover, her affinity is lightning. There is no way she could use any big skill with such an injury, at least not without hurting herself.\' thought Angus.
After thinking for a moment, Angus tapped the ground with his hand and created a large magic on the surrounding Brigida. Brigida also notices the shining magic circle and is ready to defend herself. [3rd Circle - Quagmire] *Whoosh* *Ploop*
