章 2261: Natural Enemy (Part 1)

'If I take Verhen down, the Demons will fade and the Golems will stop. It all comes down to him and me again, but this time no Guardian will interrupt us.'

The Garuda used the speed from his wings and the Life Maelstrom to move too fast for the Awakened forces to stop him amid the chaos of battle.

Xondar was confident in taking down the Tiamat because Garudas were considered the closest thing to a Dragon's natural enemy.

They were capable of flight, had four prehensile limbs, were physically stronger, and were talented in close-quarter combat. Dragon Eyes could do nothing against raw physical might and Life Maelstrom made the gap even wider.

When a Dragon and a Garuda met, it was all about distances. If the Dragon managed to keep the Garuda away, they could win. If the Garuda came close, the battle would be over in seconds.
