Chapitre 300: CHAPTER 300 - The Imminent Battle
As a magical array inscribed with various arcane runes materialized in mid-air, a mechanical giant, Gaboga, towering nearly as high as a small mountain, appeared within Li Lin's sight in just two breaths.
At the same time, a deep, resonant dragon roar echoed from the southern side of Everpeak, startling a flock of birds into flight from the mountaintop forest.
The dragon had awakened.
Li Lin, now airborne, glanced back. Even from a great distance, he could sense the unease and anger contained within the roar, as if the danger was imminent.
Li Lin hastened his entry into the Gaboga cockpit, letting the AI assist in automatically connecting the Infinity Armor and the mech's neural interface.
[Mechanical Giant Gaboga System Online.]
[Identity Verification Complete.]
[Welcome, Creator Li Lin.]
[Checking Mech Data...]
[Data Normal!]
[Weapon Systems Online, Defense Systems Online!]
[...]
With a series of status updates, Gaboga powered up.
Li Lin first moved his right hand to test its mobility. With the assistance of the neural connection system and AI, Gaboga's right fist mimicked his movements with almost no delay.
Before he could complete his pre-flight checks and fully integrate the Infinity Armor with the mech's systems, an urgent alert blared in the cockpit:
[High-Energy Magic Energy Approaching!]
[Identified Magic Source: Flame Elemental Dragon Yvva!]
"Ah, I hadn't even come looking for you, and yet you've come for me?" Li Lin raised an eyebrow, a cold smirk appearing on his face.
True dragons flew at incredible speeds, but with their massive and heavy bodies, their flesh wings could barely sustain their flight.
Even though dragons generally don't breathe fire, and have minimal magical talent, they can still use ambient magic to aid their flight.
In just a few seconds, Yvva covered the three kilometers and arrived at Li Lin's location.
Before him was a dragon with wings fully spread, measuring over twenty meters, and four thick, sharp claws. Its entire body was engulfed in an eternal, blazing fire that painted the night sky with a fiery glow.
Seeing such a towering, mountain-like steel behemoth, Yvva's fiery eyes flickered with confusion, questioning why this figure posed such a significant threat.
Especially given the energy emanating from its chest, which seemed far more potent than its own magic.
Iva's heart trembled, "An ancient dragon…"
It uttered an arcane language, its gaze growing colder as it focused on Gaboga.
Noticing the mech's head slightly turning, seemingly locking onto itself, Iva hesitated no longer. It immediately opened its massive maw, capable of swallowing a full-grown man, channeling a surge of energy to conjure a ball of elemental flame potent enough to melt steel.
However, in those few seconds of hesitation, Li Lin's armor had fully synchronized with the mech system.
[High-Energy Flame Elemental Magic Breath Detected!]
"Activate the Force Field Shield."
Li Lin calmly initiated the defensive system while maneuvering the mech's back and leg thrusters to lift off from the ground.
"—Roar!"
Iva unleashed a deafening roar, its sound waves spreading like they could shatter space itself. In the fire's light, visible translucent sound waves were discernible.
Moments later, the dragon's elemental breath, now charged, was expelled as a towering column of fire, incinerating everything in its path and turning the ground into scorched earth.
Yet for Gaboga, which had activated its Force Field Shield and entered a one-minute "Invincible Mode," the dragon's fiery breath was nothing to fear.
As Yvva's flames reached Gaboga's exterior, they were completely blocked by a translucent barrier.
"Roar!"
Iva's eyes flared with intense flames, roaring more fiercely as its scales absorbed elemental particles from the air, concentrating them in its mouth to intensify the firepower, enveloping Gaboga, nearly two hundred meters tall, in flames.
This was its most powerful attack, and its trump card: the Firestorm.
In the hundreds of years Yvva had lived, no creature, not even other elemental dragons, had survived its furious breath.
Yet, despite its exertion, the threat sensed in front of it remained unchanged.
As time passed, Yvva's strength began to wane, and it slowed its fiery breath.
At that moment, an unfamiliar human voice suddenly rang out from within its flames: "Had enough of your tantrum?"
Yvva widened its eyes in shock as Gaboga broke through its fiery barrier, its shoulder-mounted missile pods deploying.
"Time for my turn."
In the next instant, dozens of mini-compressed rockets were launched from the shoulder pods, speeding towards the fire dragon faster than the eye could follow.
"This is... not good!"
Yvva roared in fury, quickly raising a fiery barrier in front of itself, enveloping all the rockets in flames.
Unfortunately, these compressed rockets were specially designed to explode upon sustaining damage from external forces.
Yvva's hastily erected fire barrier was merely ten meters away, right within the rockets' blast range.
Instantly, the high-pressure, powerful mini rockets detonated, creating a fiery explosion more intense than its breath, hurling the battered and scarred fire dragon away.
At that moment, Yvva's fiery eyes dimmed as it looked at Gaboga with a horrified expression. "You're... a demigod?!"
However, Li Lin didn't understand the dragon's language and had no clue what the elemental dragon was saying.
After collecting the missile combat data, Li Lin once again activated Gaboga's various armor sections, revealing the material projection cannons that locked onto Yvva, and launched compressed bullets using electromagnetic propulsion.
Countless special compressed bullets formed a dense barrage with no escape for Iva. The severely wounded dragon tried to cover itself in flames once more, creating a less effective flame armor to block the bullets.
It realized that this steel giant was as formidable as the ancient dragon kings among the elemental dragons, deeply regretting its earlier attack and considering retreat.
But in less than two heartbeats, Iva felt a tearing pain in its wings and body.
The dense compressed bullets had shattered its flame armor, penetrating through its nearly impenetrable dragon scales and expanding the wounds inside.
"—Roar!"
The material projection cannon, with its increased caliber and power, was designed for use in space warfare, and its power was formidable.
As Yvva's body was riddled with holes, only a breath away from death, it fell like a red "meteor" to the ground, crashing heavily onto the southeastern plains of Everpeak, only a few kilometers from the Demacia border's Watcher's Wall.
Li Lin piloted Gaboga quickly to the side of the dying elemental dragon, where its blood spilled onto the ground, scorching deep pits and emitting a hissing sound with acrid white smoke.
Yvva looked up one last time at Gaboga, which had raised its left arm, with three large apertures emitting glaring blue-white light.
"You... demigod…"
Before it could finish, the energy particle spear focused and spewed from the energy conduit, piercing through the dragon's head and obliterating it instantly.
