1654 Chapter 1472: Final Showdown 2


    Upon hearing Alex''s words, Maggie immediately jumped to her feet, fists raised high in the air, and let out a triumphant cheer. Scarlet remained silent, but the fiery twin des she held in her outstretched arms made it clear that she fully supported the decision. Little Blue approached Alex, clutching a magnificent longbow in her hands, her gaze fixed on the menacing dragon. She then turned to Alex and asked,


    "Big Brother, should I release my arrow now?"


    And so, the momentous battle between these two adversaries was about tomence. The Final showdown was about to begin.


    "Madeline, it''s your turn!"


    To everyone''s surprise, it wasn''t Alex who took the initiative to start the battle on the open ins. Instead, it was Madeline, positioned high above the city wall behind them. Upon hearing themand, she opened her eyes and cast a quick nce at the colossal dark dragon looming ahead. With a gentle movement of her finger, she traced intricate runes in the air, causing them to spiral around her. Unwavering, Madeline tapped her finger in the empty space.


    In an instant, hundreds of thousands of spells transformed into a powerful, whistling torrent of magic, aimed directly at Bahamut''s clone, ready to unleash its force.


    Boom! Boom! Boom!


    Only three minutes had passed between his escape and Alex''smand. In that brief span of time, before Bahamut''s clone had a chance to fully recover from the devastating void storm, he was met with a dazzling onught of lethal magical brilliance. Startled, he urgently spread his wings to shield his massive body. A gray barrier enveloped him, just as Madeline''s spells crashed into him. The sky erupted in a blinding sh of light, and his colossal form was swallowed by the magical explosions. n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    Fortunately for him, the distance between Madeline and him worked in his favor. Most of the spells she unleashed were intended for long-range attacks. While she had the ability to gather everyone''s skills and release them in a single wave, the effectiveness of the spells themselves was limited by distance. The reason Madeline had been able to clear the battlefield of Chaos creatures earlier was because they had been both near and far from her. None of them could escape her offensive skills. But with Ion now positioned too far away, only the long-range attack spells were able to cause damage. The close-range skills couldn''t reach him at all. If Bahamut''s clone had been beside Madeline at this moment, the wave of spells would have been devastating enough to ensure his failure.


    Even though Madeline''s attack consisted solely of long-range skills, thebined power was still impressive enough to leave Bahamut''s clone covered in filthy dust. Having already endured the effects of the void storm earlier, he wasn''t in perfect condition. And now, before he could regain hisposure, Alex''s forces hadunched their assault.


    Furious, Bahamut''s clone let out a thunderous roar as the smoke from the explosion cleared. Bursting out of the smoke, he spread his massive wings and soared high into the sky. Despite his wretched appearance, he was still a powerful Dragon. Furthermore, being influenced by Chaos had granted him an endless source of power. Though momentarily exhausted, he was not easily defeated. Madeline''s wave of attack had applied pressure, but it hadn''t caused significant damage. The dark dragon, Bahamut''s clone was now enraged. pping his massive wings, he charged straight towards the steel fortress before him.


    "Fire all cannons! st him down!" Alexmanded, determined to bring down the formidable foe.


    As Alex stood on the ground, his gaze towards the enemy turned ice-cold. In response to hismand, the thick iron tes of the steel city slid open once again, revealing numerous cannon barrels that rolled out and aimed towards the sky. Within moments, a series of res exploded from the city walls, bombarding Ion with a storm of cannon fire.


    Despite the power behind the cannon sts, they barely scratched Ion''s tough scales. The same sts that could createrge craters on thend only ignited his body. The damage seemed to have little effect on him. With his wings spread, he swooped down, opening his jaw wide as a pitch-ck energy gathered in his throat.


    "Little Blue, do it! Use your special arrow!" Alexmanded, his eyes glinting with a murderous intent. He snorted and gave the order swiftly. Little Blue, standing beside him, nodded attentively. She raised the longbow in her hands, focused her gaze on the formidable enemy, and gradually pulled the bowstring. As she did, a pitch-ck arrow materialized in her hand.


    And then, she released her grip on her right fingers. The arrow of her Gift had been set free, draining her strength in the process.


    Whoosh———!


    In an instant, a ck brilliance shed before disappearing from view. The dark dragon''s power had reached its peak. With his head held high, he prepared to unleash his mes and annihte those pathetic insects. But in that moment, a dark glow suddenly appeared in his eyes. Without warning, an arrow silently flew through space and ruthlessly pierced his right eye.


    "Ahhhhhh!"


    He never expected such a turn of events. All he felt was a searing pain in his eye. Then, a toxic gas erupted, leaving him disoriented and dizzy. In an instant, he lost his sense of direction. He struggled to lower his head and release his dragon breath in a fit of rage. However, due to the arrow from little Blue, he instinctively turned around, causing his fiery breath to miss the steel city walls. Instead, it exploded in the empty field behind him.


    In that moment, she extended her finger, pointing it at Bahamut''s clone, and tapped gently.


    Boom!


    A radiant golden column of light descended from the sky, striking him with great force. This time, he couldn''t hold on any longer after Madeline''s attack. Previously, he had been too far away for her to use close-range skills against him. But now, as he drew closer, Madeline unleashed all her mid-range and close-range skills. The number of skills she used was almost double or even more than doublepared to before! He couldn''t withstand it any longer. He screamed and plummeted from the sky, crashing heavily to the ground. In the aftermath of the collision, a mushroom cloud of smoke rose, apanied by his furious roar.


    "You bastards. How dare you conspire against me. I''ll kill you all!".


    "3rd and 4th squads, move to the left! 2nd squad, cover our backs! The rest, follow me to the right. Let''s go!"


    In the face of Bahamut''s clone fury, Alex remained incrediblyposed. The roar of Bahamut''s clone sounded meaningless, like the final words of a defeated boss. At this moment, Alex and his group had fully recovered their strength. They had only expended some energy while escaping the void storm earlier. Now that they were on the main continent, their connection with mana had been restored and strengthened. Alex could have taken on Bahamut''s clone alone, but he chose to rely on his team. Commanding them was enjoyable in its own right. It gave him a sense of power and control that was quite addictive.


    Well, the fight was about to reach its climax.
