"Go!"
Samuel used all his strength to hurl the Enchanted Riding Spear, a weapon comparable to a small battering ram, at the Shield of the Realm.
BANG!!!
The instant the riding spear struck the barrier, a blinding explosion lit up half the sky. Under the force of this mighty blow, the Shield of the Realm shattered violently, dissolving into motes of light that scattered through the air.
The spear’s momentum slowed slightly, but it still carried terrifying kinetic energy as it shot toward Chen Yu on Peggy’s back.
[Blood Frenzy]
[Blood Evocation]
[Magic Burst]
A deep, blood-red light instantly flared from Chen Yu’s vibrant green Gel body. A dark crimson orb of blood, several times larger than his own body, rapidly coalesced before him, then drifted unhurriedly toward the approaching spear.
BOOM!!!
The orb of blood and the riding spear collided in midair. The immense blood energy exploded in an instant, dyeing a large portion of the sky dark crimson, and the shockwave sent nearby monsters and dust flying.
The Enchantment on the riding spear rapidly dimmed under the intense corrosion of the blood energy, and it finally lost all its power and fell from the sky.
Chen Yu opened his "Great Abyssal Stomach" and swallowed it in one gulp.
[Max HP +300]
"Nice equipment!" Chen Yu’s small eyes glinted, his gaze instinctively drawn to the full set of Enchanted Equipment Samuel was wearing.
"Damn it!" Samuel’s eyelid twitched violently as a strong sense of foreboding rose within him. ’The power of that blood orb’s explosion and its bizarre ability to devour my spear... this is going to be tough.’
"Blood Magic?!" Mage Vincent, floating in midair, was taken aback, finding it unbelievable.
’A Slime using Blood Magic?’
’This completely defies all my knowledge of Magic.’
[Bursting Fireball]
Vincent dispelled the ineffective Demon-Banning Barrier. With a wave of his Magic Staff, he condensed a massive, blazing Fireball and hurled it at Chen Yu.
But before the Fireball could land, a volley of Arcane Missiles shimmering with starlight whistled in from the side, striking it with precision and detonating it prematurely.
Princess Louisa held her Magic Staff. Though her face was pale, her calm gaze remained fixed on Vincent, as if to say, ’As long as I am here, don’t even think about interfering.’
Chen Yu unfurled his Gel Wings, leaped from Peggy’s back, and dove toward Samuel on the ground.
His Gel body contracted slightly in midair, then began to frantically absorb the chaotic Magic Power from the surroundings.
Allen, who had been hiding in the shadows, was shocked. He immediately emerged and shouted a warning to Samuel, "Watch out, it’s about to get bigger!"
"What?" Samuel hadn’t fully processed the warning.
Like an inflating balloon, the Slime in the sky swelled in an instant, becoming a mountain-sized behemoth in the blink of an eye. Its massive shadow completely enveloped Samuel before it came crashing down.
"Damn it! Is this a fucking Slime?!"
"Dominic, you never told me it could do this!"
Samuel screamed in terror. He tried to flee, but it was too late.
BAM!!
Chen Yu’s massive body landed squarely where Samuel had been, caving in the ground and creating a huge crater. A column of dust and smoke shot into the sky.
Fortunately, Vincent had managed to cast a Magic Shield on Samuel at the last second. Thanks to that, and the defense from his own priceless set of Enchanted Equipment, he was able to struggle out of the crater.
He was covered in dirt and looked absolutely wretched. Even his gleaming golden armor had dimmed considerably, and a trickle of blood escaped the corner of his mouth.
Vincent raised his Magic Staff again.
[Summon Elemental Creatures]
A rift to the Elemental Plane opened in the sky. A five-meter-tall Ice Lord roared as it reached out from the rift with an Ice Crystal fist, smashing it down onto Chen Yu’s massive Gel body.
THUD!
The Gel body rippled with a springy quality, absorbing most of the impact. The Ice Lord, having over-extended itself, stumbled and fell to the ground with an infuriated roar.
Chen Yu had no time to play with the little fellow. His Gel body suddenly contracted and then expanded forcefully, launching the massive Ice Lord into the surging tide of monsters behind it, where it plowed a long, gory furrow through the horde.
Before it could struggle back to its feet, Princess Louisa, pushing through the drain on her Spiritual Power, raised her Magic Staff once more.
[Summon Elemental Creatures]
The ground beneath the Ice Lord’s feet suddenly began to boil, turning into a churning pool of magma. An equally massive Flame Lord climbed out, extended a giant, burning hand, and seized the struggling Ice Lord.
The two behemoths began to brawl, trading blow for blow. Shards of ice and sparks flew, showcasing a primitive clash of elemental power.
However, casting so much Magic in succession had left Louisa’s face as pale as paper. Her body swayed, and it was obvious she couldn’t hold on for much longer.
If she were to cancel her spell or be defeated by Vincent, Chen Yu would face a siege by three Extraordinary individuals. The situation was turning against them.
Samuel and Allen exchanged a glance, clearly realizing the same thing.
The two of them stopped trying to confront Chen Yu head-on, instead beginning to circle and harass him.
Samuel used his Enchanted Equipment to harass him from a distance, while Allen flitted through the shadows, periodically lunging with his dagger in an attempt to find Chen Yu’s weakness.
The moment they detected any sign of a counterattack from Chen Yu, they would dart away like slippery eels, refusing to get drawn into a direct confrontation.
This started to frustrate Chen Yu.
’Having a large body means great strength and high defense, but it’s too clumsy to move around.’
