Chapter 301 Contact
However, Erend acted quickly by placing his body in front of Adrien\'s body. Before the door hit him.
The feeling he sensed before made him able to move too fast enough.
*DANGGG!!!*
The sound when the metal door hit Erend\'s body echoed down the corridor.
Erend doesn\'t need to activate [Dragon Scale] - at least for now - because his own body is strong enough to hold the iron door.
\'It\'s hot.\'
The iron door wasn\'t just blown away by a normal strong force.
But there is a kind of heat that pushes it so that it can be blown away with this kind of force.
Billy, Saeldir, Aurdis, and Adrien were shocked by what had just happened.
But Adrien had managed to control himself quickly and stepped away from Erend.
"That door hit something!"
From inside the room, a man\'s voice was heard. He stretched his hands clad in a reddish aura forward.
*BRANGG!*
The door fell onto the concrete floor. But Steve and Annie who were on the other side of the door saw no one.
Annie also saw that the iron door stopped in midair and just fell.
There was a dent in the door from the opposite direction.
So it was obvious that the door was stopped by something unseen.
"Did you see anything?" Steve asked.
"No," answered Annie. "But I know that something is there."
Erend turned to Adrien and Billy.
\'It\'s Steve,\' Erend said.
It was the bastard that had set them up that time.
They also remembered that he was the only person who escaped from the raid on the Eternal Garden leaving his comrades to be slaughtered by the Elven troop.
Erend, Adrien, and Billy didn\'t expect that they would meet him again. And in this state when he could use Magic as a subject for this experiment.
\'Aurdis, Saeldir. You two can start,\' Adrien said.
They are still invisible. And since this corridor was a bit remote, they hadn\'t been discovered yet.
But it wouldn\'t take long even if the cameras watching this corridor were turned off by Saeldir and Aurdis.
Aurdis and Saeldir immediately moved closer to Steve and Annie to do their job.
But Steve and Annie felt something approaching them so they cast Magic to show resistance.
A hot reddish aura surrounded Steve\'s body. Meanwhile, a cold bluish aura enveloped Annie\'s body.
"Who the fuck are you?!" Steve asked in a threatening tone. "Show yourselves now or I will burn you!"
Aurdis and Saeldir stopped where they were next to the open door.
\'They are much stronger than we think,\' Saeldir said.
\'Shit!\' Billy cursed anxiously. \'What should we do now?\'
Before anyone in the group could come up with an idea, Steve has already let out a torrent of flames from both hands toward the door opening.
*ZWOOOSSHHH!!!*
Fortunately, Aurdis and Saeldir had dodged. Billy, Erend, and Adrien had also moved.
Even so, they couldn\'t completely avoid such a large burst of flames.
Erend who dodged slower than the others was hit by the fire which was now burning part of his clothes\' sleeve.
\'Shit!\'
"There you are!"
Steve, who saw the flames flying, burning something invisible, immediately lunged.
The fire must have burned something that was about to do something to them.
\'If it\'s a human, then their head is here!\'
Steve aimed his flame-coated fist around Erend\'s head.
Even though the fist is not completely accurate but with the flames covering it, Erend will still receive damage.
So of course Erend would need to parry the punch.
*DAKK!*
Steve felt something hit his arm and he was startled.
But his surprise was then broken by an attack that landed on his stomach.
*DUAGGGHH!!!*
Steve was thrown backward back into his room. Annie stared at Steve with wide eyes.
"What is it?" she asked.
"There... there is something!" Steve answered holding his stomach.
\'Come on, quickly!\' Erend said to Aurdis and Saeldir.
Aurdis and Saeldir immediately moved into the room.
They had to get rid of both of their Magic abilities before this got any worse.
But of course, their intentions will not be done that easily.
Annie had already taken action by creating an ice wall to block the door.
\'They have become this strong,\' Saeldir said. \'We can\'t take any chances, Aurdis.\'
Aurdis looked at Saeldir worriedly.
\'We have to immobilize them before you can do that?\' Erend asked.
\'Yes,\' replied Saeldir.
\'Why didn\'t you say so earlier?\' Erend immediately lunged into the wall.
*BRAAKK!!!*
The ice wall immediately shattered into pieces because it was bumped by Erend.
Annie and Steve were still in shock. Now they were certain that something was after them there.
*TEEETTT!!!*
*TEEETTT!!!*
*TEEETTT!!!*
...
Suddenly the alarm sounded loudly throughout the corridor.
\'We\'re caught!\' Billy said nervously.
No one answered his words because what Billy said didn\'t help at all.
Erend takes advantage of his existence which is still unknown to Steve and Annie.
He dashed forward and grabbed both of them by the neck then pinned them against the wall.
Steve groaned angrily. His red-hot aura became thicker and stronger.
Then, Erend noticed that Steve\'s eyes had turned red with black pupils.
\'What the hell?\' Erend frowned at Steve.
He immediately knew what was in front of his eyes. Erend also felt it in his heart.
\'It\'s the evil Magic!\'
Adrien, Billy, Aurdis, and Saeldir heard Erend\'s anxious telepathic screams.
Aurdis and Saeldir immediately rushed in front of Annie and Steve.
They spread their arms until a silvery light shot out.
Steve who realized that something dangerous was happening to him could not allow it.
He created a sword from the condensed fire in his hand.
Steve then thrust the towards Erend.
[ Skill activated: Dragon Scale (Lv.5) ]
However, Erend had already activated [Dragon Scale] so the flame sword only seem to hit a strong invisible wall.
Erend gritted his teeth. \'Let\'s finish this and get out of here quickly.\'
