Chapter 468: The tech is ready!
"Crap! I haven't seen it light up this bright before." Paul muttered as his eyes widened. "This is gonna hurt!"
*Bang!*
An ear piercing, deafening bang echoed in the whole battlefield. A tremendous wave of energy shot out slamming into the dragon while Paul's fall accelerated and in the blink of an eye, his body conneceted with the ground hard.
*ROARRR!*
The dragon roared in anger and pain as the tremendous wave of energy slammed into it hard, causing it to bleed badly as it was swung back with so much force that it nearly fell from the sky.
But a continuous flap of its wings finally made it come to a halt as black blood continuously dripped down it's crimson body.
"General Paul?!" Peter shouted as Alex as Sophia were still busy making whatever they needed to get the beast down.
"I'm…Kuk! I'm okay." Paul coughed as he slowly rose up, blood dripping down his nose. "On a second thought, I think I cracked a rib or two."
"You need to be more careful!" Peter scolded as he offered his hand forward and Paul took it while slowly rising up.
"Yeah, I will." Paul said, a small smile on his face when the dragon's roar brought them back to the battle.
"Stop shouting every single time you damned dragon! Give your freaking throat a rest." Peter shouted in anger.
In response, the dragon shot out several fireballs from the air towards Peter who gripped his axe and sword tightly until…
"I got this." Paul said as he grabbed his shield and dashed forward, slamming it into the ground hard.
Causing a wave of Qi to spread out and block the fireballs from hitting them but Paul was still sent skidding a bit.
"How do we get this overgrown lizard down here now? Jade can't do whatever he wants while it is in the air." Peter said as he kept swinging his axe and sword several times in the air unleashing slashes of Qi to hit the dragon continuously but it managed to avoid each and every single one of them.
"That's where we finally come in." Sophia's voice echoed as the four Qi swords Alex had created floated in the air.
Surrounding the swords were thin lines that looked like threads but not the usual thread, these ones looked to be made from Qi.
"Is… is this your visual Qi? A thread?" Peter asked in confusion.
"Just shut up an…" Alex trailed off as the dragon geered for another attack.
It tried to open its maw to unleash another round of fireballs but reacting quickly, Paul sent his shield flying forward.
As if anticipating this, the dragon quickly swiveled in the air avoiding the shield which still flew back whacking the dragon in the head and moving giant head a few inches.
"Stop the yapping and get working!" Paul roared.
"Alex!" Sophia called out as she twirled her fingers around causing the thread to wrap around the swords tightly like two sticks being connected to each other using a rope of some kind. "Shoot!"
"On it." Alex said as the dragon now opened its maw about to send another fireball attack when the swords flew forward at immense speed towards it.
Seeing this, it quickly turned its maw towards the swords and immediately sent a huge fireball towards the swords.
"Crap!" Sophia said as she twirled her fingers and at the last second, the swords swiveled around the fireball which was now heading for the ground.
In a split second, the fireball slammed hard into the ground, dust and debris kicked up as a giant hole was burnt through the ground.
"Go!" Sophia roared as she swung her fingers forward causing the swords to rocket forward at immense speed.
The dragon tried to chomp on the swords but they just turned around, towards the dragon's back and the neck second, the four swords lunged deep into the dragon's wings.
Two on each wing while Sophia held her palm outward. Focusing on it, she slammed her palms together and the thread swiftly reacted, connection with each along with the swords finally tying up the beast's wings.
*ROARRR!*
The dragon roared furiously as it was suddenly sent plummeting down like a meteor heading straight for Earth. The speed with which the beast was seen crashing down was so immense that the sound barrier shattered multiple times.
It furiously tried to flap its wings several times but to no avail. They weren't responding to it and then, it slammed into the ground in a split second.
A loud, deafening boom shook the whole planet. With this, it felt like the planet had moved slightly from its position. Werewolves' structures crumbled in an instant.
A tremendous wave of shockwave spread out that it knocked them all from their feet sending them bouncing a couple times before coming to a halt.
"Damn it! How much does this shitty lizard weigh?" Alex cursed as he slowly rose up along with the rest to see the dragon standing up.
Its head slightly bleeding. It shook its massive head a few times as if trying to get rid of a hangover or dizziness.
"Quick! Before it regains its head." Sophia shouted as she grabbed her rapier and bolted forward.
"As if there's even anything we can do against it." Paul said as he also dashed forward, his cracked sword in one hand, his shield in the other.
Despite their injuries, they still braved forward with Sophia at the forefront. Immediately after reaching the beast's position, Sophia leapt up towards its eyes.
Her rapier moving quickly towards it as the dragon was still seen trying to regain its head. But as if sensing her presence, its eyes snapped open and the dragon opened up its mouth trying to chomp on her when…
"You younglings and acting rashly." Paul shouted as he bolted forward, pushing his body to the limit.
Seeing that he would not be able to make it in time, he swung the shield forward sending it flying towards the beast's face but as if anticipating this, the dragon swung its tail towards the shield sending it flying back towards Paul.
"Qi wall!" Paul shouted as he slammed his hands together and a massive wall of QI immediately raised up.
But when the shield struck, it shattered like fragile glass as Paul was sent flying due to the force of the shield hitting him with blood spraying down his mouth.
Due to Paul's timely involvement, Sophia finally was able to lunge her sword into one of the dragon's eyes with all the strength she could muster.
The blade met a bit of resistance as the dragon thrashed around in pain but she infused the sword with all her Qi letting it push through and pull out the dragon's eye with black blood dripping down the eye socket and then…
*Whack!*
The dragon's tail finally moved and slammed Sophia away from it sending her flying and tumbling on the ground with a cracked nose, blood spilling down her nose and mouth.
"Shit! When will the damned tech be ready?" Peter cursed in anger as he got ready to dash forward when…
"It is ready!" Jade called out.
