Chapter 114: Avril Self-destructs!
“Had I been an Ancient Dragon like Lady Catherine, things might have gone down differently.”
Avril mumbled to herself.
The next instant, Avril unleashed waves of powerful energy.
Seemingly noticing something, Max’s expression changed greatly and he shouted, “Not good!”
Avril slowly closed her eyes. The next instant, her massive body gradually became transparent.
The energy she had unleashed was going rampant.
Upon noticing the vanishing Avril, Max instantly knew what was about to happen.
As the energy contained within a Silver Dragon’s body became stronger, their silvery-white scales would gradually become transparent!
Avril, who was only a Young Dragon, had suddenly obtained the transparent dragon scales of the Ancient Dragons. Worse still, accompanying this change in color were waves of astounding and terrifying energy fluctuations!
She was planning to self-destruct!
Max gasped upon this realization.
‘How ruthless!’
‘I can’t believe she’d rather kill herself than to die by my hands!’
‘Weren’t Silver Dragons indecisive? How can Avril self-destruct so willingly?’
Alas, Max was unaware that while Silver Dragons were indeed indecisive towards most situations, that was not the case whenever they faced off against their mortal enemies, the Red Dragons.
Avril’s body was almost completely transparent at this point.
The energy within Avril’s body was becoming more and more violent, and she was about to lose control!
Max dared not linger any longer. Although he still had one last charge of Invincible Golden Body, he could not be sure that there were no other dangerous existences like Avril waiting for him.
Moreover, before Avril self-destructed, Max had clearly heard Avril mentioning a name.
‘Catherine!’
‘She had addressed her by honorifics!’
‘This Catherine is definitely stronger than Avril.’
‘Is she an Old Dragon?’
‘Or an Archaic Dragon?’
‘Or could she be an Ancient Dragon?’
Max was unaware, but regardless of Catherine’s level, Max was not afraid. After all, he could always fall back on the Battle of Existence!
However, there was also a voice of doubt at the back of his mind. It was telling him that he might anger Mother Tiamat if he were to use the Battle of Existence again.
Even though Max had used the Battle of Existence only when his life was in jeopardy, the rate in which he was using it was far too frequent.
Being an ancient and forbidden ability, very little, if any, remaining Chromatic Dragons knew how to use it.
Moreover, even if one knew how to use it, they might only use it once every hundred or so years, unlike Max, who had already used it 3 times within a few months.
Even though he was truly in danger when he used the ability, the frequency of it would likely make Tiamat feel that he was abusing it.
As a result, Max refused to use his last charge of Invincible Golden Body to withstand Avril’s self destruct.
Max planned to wait out the 48 hour cooldown of his Invincible Golden Body before he proceeded onwards.
‘It seems that I’m still lacking in strength.’
Even though he had devoured the Dragonkin with the strength of an Immemorial Dragon, his bloodline was not pure, unlike Adams and Tahir from before.
Although it had provided Max with plenty of energy, it did not provide Max with the leap in strength like the prior 2 enemies he had devoured.
During the short period where Max’s thoughts were occupied, Avril’s body had already expanded into the shape and size of a massive rubber ball!
Clearly, Avril could no longer contain the energy within her and was about to explode!
Max dared not delay any longer. His enemy was a Young Dragon that was adept in using magic.
The explosion’s blast radius would definitely be quite significant. He needed to leave fast, otherwise, he might get caught in the explosion.
Avril had no intention of allowing Max to leave. After all, she had activated her self-detonation mode without any prior charge-up.
The wings on Max’s back flapped abruptly, and he stomped fiercely. With the force from his wings and the impact on his legs, Max immediately accelerated and shot into the sky!
The next instant, Avril, who had already swelled to the limit, suddenly trembled. Following that, she exploded into an icy-blue shockwave that blasted in all directions!
The power of that shockwave was extraordinary. Even though Max had widened the distance between them by at least 700-800 meters in an extremely short period of time, he had still taken a massive brunt of the attack!
Once the powerful shockwave was gone, the shape of the explosion remain encased in ice.
Soon after, the clear sky was enveloped in a snowstorm once more.
It was as if the sky knew of Avril’s death. However, in truth, the energy had scattered from Avril’s body to cause the endless snowstorm to envelope the mountaintop once more!
Max cursed as he attempted to balance himself.
The huge impact caused by Avril’s self-detonation had hurtled Max into the distance like a cannonball. Despite his attempts to change the trajectory of his fall into that of a parabola, he was incapable of doing so.
Lightning rolled in the sky as he attempted to fire his Dragon Breaths to slow his fall. After several attempts, his acceleration gradually slowed, and his descent gradually became manageable.
However, it had still taken Max great effort to regain control.
By the time Max was capable of changing his trajectory, the sky had already become completely dark,
Dark clouds covered the sky, a sign of a coming storm.
Max staggered and hurriedly rushed towards the ground.
Although he had defeated Avril, he did not have much mana left. Lingering in the air would make him an open target for all, and thus, he chose to descend to make his presence less noticeable.
Meanwhile, a massive figure had been stirred awake by the explosion.
Its huge body was as bright as a diamond. It was 10 meters tall, and every time it moved its body, the nearby mountains quaked!
The huge figure suddenly opened its eyes. A look of disbelief flashed across its eyes.
“Avril…”
“She’s dead!?”
