Capítulo 290: Chapter 290: The Battle of the Titans
"The storm gathers, lifting me to the clouds!"
In a deep roar, a rolling storm with thunderbolts surged, resembling a gigantic vortex connecting heaven and earth, swirling around Volibear and Garon, moving toward a volcanic area in the wilderness.
The originally bright sky darkened with Volibear's call of the storm.
Dark clouds, storms, thunder, lightning, the majesty of heaven moved with them.
Inside the storm, Garon curiously felt its power.
Thanks to Volibear's care, he needed no effort to float and move with the storm's power.
Around the silver dragon's body, visible hurricanes and thunderbolts could be seen. Garon reached out to touch the thunderbolts with his dragon claw. The azure lightning and silver flashes moved on his scales as if alive, causing no harm to Garon.
"Big brother, who is more formidable? You or Ornn?"
Garon was curious.
The ranking of the half-god brothers, could it be based on strength?
Volibear's creature level is also forty, the limit the material world can accommodate.
But its level forty is a true half-god, far stronger than the half-hearted celestial angels. Garon felt that the deities and saints he had seen before were likely no match for Volibear, which seemed immensely powerful to him.
Although only four levels apart, there was a feeling of invincibility.
This means, unless using Time Reversal, Garon had no chance against Volibear, the storm god.
On the other side, Volibear, controlling the storm, didn't hesitate to answer Garon's question.
"Of course, I'm the strongest."
"Ornn may be the eldest because he was the first to condense a physical form."
"But in terms of strength, huh, I am the incarnation of the storm, the embodiment of power, the strongest creature in this world!"
Volibear stood tall and proud, arms crossed, declaring, "Your second brother is invincible!"
His confident tone, combined with his command of the storm and thunder, made Volibear appear majestic and imposing.
"So, it's like that."
Garon didn't quite believe it but said, "I didn't expect you to be so powerful, second brother."
From their brief interaction, he saw that second brother Volibear was passionate and straightforward, sincere to his brothers but very particular about dignity and honor. Ask him anything, and the answer is always "I'm invincible, I'm the strongest."
Volibear nodded vigorously, "Stick with me, and few dare to mess with you!"
"Remember, in this world, it's only us brothers who can bully others!"
Garon nodded repeatedly.
His severely injured body entered this dangerous world and immediately encountered a lava python, almost getting eaten. But then, Volibear saved him, and he inexplicably gained several half-god brothers, unsure if his luck was good or bad.
As time passed.
Gradually, a black wasteland filled with cracks and flowing lava appeared in Garon's sight, several volcanoes spewing thick smoke, challenging the dark clouds and storm brought by Volibear, the sulfur smell was extremely pungent.
"We're approaching the territory of the lava python."
"Your injuries haven't healed. Just watch from a distance, don't get involved, be careful not to get hurt again."
Volibear cautioned Garon.
Then, adorned in rune armor, controlling the storm, leaving Garon in the high sky, Volibear flew alone towards the most towering volcano.
"Brainless beast."
"Your lord Volibear is here again!"
"Come out, dare to bully my fourth brother, you're dead this time!"
With roars, the dark clouds arrogantly dispersed the volcanic smoke, appearing above the crater, the storm bear's figure faintly visible in the clouds.
Boom, boom, boom!
Thick lightning bolts suddenly fell.
The dim sky lit up momentarily as if it were daytime.
Then, crackling lightning plunged into the volcano, the terrifying storm force making the entire volcano tremble, causing massive cracks to appear on its surface as lava erupted like a fountain, scattering in all directions.
Roar!
The air vibrated intensely.
Visible shockwaves emerged, heading for the clouds in the sky, dispersing several thunderbolts.
The lava python's hundred-meter body, coated in lava, slithered out of the volcano.
Then, in Garon's envious gaze, endless fire elemental energy gathered, and the lava python's body swelled, almost instantly becoming a thousand meters long, its serpentine body coiling around the volcano, opening its maw wide, roaring at Volibear.
Volibear sneered.
Its arms wrapped in blinding azure lightning, leaped from thousands of meters in the air, its robust right arm raised high as if grasping the heavens' thunder, smashing towards the lava python.
As it fell, the storm and thunder merged into Volibear's body.
In an instant, Volibear's figure grew to over six hundred meters tall, the metallic rune armor expanding with its form. Even from ten thousand meters away, Garon could feel an overwhelming pressure.
"I wonder if I can learn this ability to enhance my size tenfold."
Garon's eyes shone, looking towards the two colossal beings.
According to Volibear, when fighting, if you don't transform, you're almost too embarrassed to call yourself a half-god.
In the field of vision, the thunder bear and the lava python collided fiercely.
Volibear's descending palm struck the lava python's head, spewing flames and thunderbolts. The python's head scales shattered, leaking lava-like hot flames, heating the rune armor red-hot, like a branding iron.
After taking a hit, the python seemed not to have suffered much damage.
Its resilience was astonishing.
The lava python's tail moved, coiling its body, wrapping around Volibear's waist, starting to constrict while spewing a column of rolling lava, the black-red lava carrying poison and high temperature, covering Volibear.
Volibear raised an arm, blocking the lava in front, the other arm wrapped in blinding lightning, striking the lava python, leaving severe wounds.
Blood flowed like rivers.
The lava python fought back fiercely.
Its head shot out like lightning, biting into Volibear's arm, crushing the rune armor, bleeding thunderous blood.
As the thunder bear and lava python tangled, the volcano beneath them could not bear the weight, its body crumbling.
Rocks, lava, storm, dust, and thunder, the surroundings of these two colossal beings were filled with catastrophic scenes.
After the volcano collapsed, they continued their fierce battle on the ground, moving the battlefield.
Primitive and barbaric close-quarters combat was bloody and cruel.
The collision of thunderstorms and lava was like the apocalypse.
Time passed, and Garon witnessed the creation of serpentine trenches and deep canyons on the land due to the battle of the two colossal beasts.
Volibear's paw strikes on the ground directly caused the earth to rise and crack, forming canyons, while the python's serpentine body, like a bulldozer, created countless trenches.
Because both were extremely powerful, the two half-god creatures had tenacious vitality.
They fought across multiple locations, even reaching a thousand miles from the original battlefield, passing through the territories of other half-god creatures on the way. However, because they feared the power of Volibear and the lava python, these half-god creatures did not attack but merely watched from a distance.
As time went on, the scales of victory gradually tipped in favor of Volibear. With Ornn's rune armor protecting it, its defense was a notch above the lava python's, and its storm power was also superior. After a brutal fight that lasted nearly a month, the blood spilled by the lava python even formed a river of flame.
Moreover, the lava python's body was covered with deep wounds visible to the bone.
Almost none of its scales remained intact; nearly all were shattered, and its vitality had weakened significantly.
As for the imposing thunder bear, though also covered in blood and its rune armor shattered, its fighting spirit and vitality were at their peak, far from reaching its limits.
"The outcome is clear."
"What a fierce battle."
Gazing at the ravaged land, Garon was amazed.
Volibear's strength exceeded his expectations, and the oppressive force of the fully unleashed thunder bear made it hard for him to breathe.
The power of a true god was indeed terrifying, even for the lowest rank of half-gods.
Meanwhile, the mountainous bear, bathed in storm and thunder, raised its right arm high, lighting up with dazzling electrical light.
"Thunderous Heaven and Earth!"
Volibear roared.
Boom, boom, boom! In an instant, rolling clouds gathered, covering tens of miles of the sky. The next second, silver snakes danced, and thunder dragons roared. Countless thunderbolts and lightning struck the lava python relentlessly, lighting up the world as if it were daytime. The severely injured lava python, enveloped in blinding electric light, struggled ceaselessly, its massive body leaving trails on the ground, wailing and roaring.
After half an hour of relentless lightning.
The thunder ceased, the clouds dispersed, revealing the scorched earth.
The lava python, still emitting heat, lay on the ground, gasping for air, its once vigorous life force now flickering like a candle in the wind.
Crack!
Another bolt of lightning struck down, hitting the lava python's head, killing it instantly.
Its thousand-meter-long body slowly contracted, eventually becoming a hundred meters long, lying motionless on the ground, no longer possessing its initial terrifying aura.
The thunder bear, bathed in lightning, raised its head and roared.
Thunder and storm danced with its roar, displaying its dominance.
Then, Volibear called Garon over to its side.
It still maintained the form of a titan, making Garon's fifty-meter-long body seem like a harmless little bird in comparison.
At this time, many half-god creatures attracted by the battle watched Volibear and Garon from afar.
Looking around, a deep roar squeezed out from Volibear's throat.
"Let it be known!"
"This is my new brother in the Indomitable Thunder."
"If I find out anyone bullies my brother, prepare to face my storm! The lava python met its end because of it!"
No creature spoke up or challenged.
At this time, Volibear's fighting spirit was still high, its bloodshot eyes appearing bloodthirsty and fierce.
Among the newly born gods, Volibear was already well-known for its belligerence and ferocity.
Moreover, half-gods like Volibear, Ornn, and Anivia, who had close relationships and even became siblings, were rare. Almost all newly born half-gods were solitary, making those in small groups like them not to be trifled with.
After declaring Garon's identity, Volibear's body slowly shrank, eventually returning to a sixty-meter-tall bear.
The tattered rune armor was removed by Volibear and tossed aside.
The bear's body was also bloody and covered in wounds, the fur scorched and unsightly from the lava burns.
The lava python's counterattack was not weak.
It was a formidable opponent among the half-god beasts, a tough bone to chew.
Volibear seemed not to feel the pain, carrying the still-hot body of the lava python, disregarding its wounds, and laughed wildly at Garon: "It's been a long time since I've had such a thrilling battle."
It patted the lava python, "Fourth brother, this beast is a great nourishment. Your injuries now have a remedy."
Looking at the similarly wounded bear, Garon fell silent, feeling a warm current growing within him.
Honestly, although he recognized Volibear as a brother, Garon didn't feel very close to him.
After all, they had just met, and coming from a complex world filled with intelligent beings, Garon's thoughts were not as simple and wild as Volibear's, harboring quite a bit of caution and vigilance. But now, in the sincere eyes of the other, Garon began to waver.
"Having such a brother seems not bad."
Garon thought to himself.
"How are your wounds?"
Garon inquired.
Volibear shook its head nonchalantly, proudly saying, "What wounds? These are my honors!"
Strands of lightning grew, dispelling the power of the lava and healing Volibear's wounds.
Because of the protection of the rune armor, it was not seriously injured, suffering mostly superficial wounds.
"Let's go back."
Volibear summoned the storm, saying.
Garon looked at the rune armor discarded on the ground, "Aren't you taking the armor?"
Volibear waved its furry paw, grinning at Garon, "Just ask big brother for a new one. If I bring it back, big brother will only repair it, and I won't get a new armor."
From Volibear's words, Garon could tell their sibling relationship was good.
Soon, Volibear, controlling the storm, enveloped itself and Garon, returning to its cave.
The cave was at the base of a high mountain, perhaps influenced by Volibear's power, the sky here always had rolling clouds, storms, and thunder surrounding the mountain, with no vegetation around.
Thump!
Volibear put down the body of the lava python.
The dead creature's body still radiated tremendous heat, distorting the air, and the surrounding rocks seemed to melt into liquid.
"Fourth brother, eat up, grow quickly."
"Your current size is too frail."
"Looking weak."
Volibear looked at Garon, shaking its head, sighing.
Frail, weak. Hearing Volibear's description, Garon was speechless but unable to refute.
In this continent where half-god creatures roamed freely, his current strength indeed wasn't sufficient.
"Never thought I, the lord of the Dragon Court, would have such a day."
Garon turned his grief and indignation into appetite, tearing into the lava python's body bit by bit.
Every piece of the half-god beast's flesh consumed turned into warm currents in his body, nourishing Garon's physique. The life force eroded by the divine light sword was rapidly replenished, and the three stubborn wounds healed at a visible speed.
As time passed, Garon's vitality gradually returned to its peak, even growing stronger.
