The Death of Gade

Chapter 87 The Death of Gade

In the sky, two figures faced each other.

The cracks in the pale mask revealed a nose and mouth. Green looked at the bull-like, powerful figure of Qian Fantian, his towering body surrounded by wisps of lightning power, and said in a low, solemn voice, "Thunder Axe, Gade."

This man, as strong as a bull, was wearing a suit of black metal armor. Only a pair of eyes glowing red were visible beneath his metal helmet. The helmet and armor were covered with protruding metal hooks, shimmering with elemental fluctuations of different attributes. A massive axe, a full 1.5 meters long, was carried across his back, emanating wisps of blood-red energy that swirled and moved around, giving the impression that the axe was "alive."

"Pale Mask, Green? I didn't expect to see you again." Gade's voice was somewhat muffled, like the last vestiges of sanity in a bull before it goes mad.

Green mentally assessed his own and his opponent's fighting strength.

As for himself, his magic power had recovered to 80%, his Pale Mask was damaged, and the Flame Giant was undergoing repair within his mental framework. Meanwhile, his opponent was at full strength; the two bare-handed attacks he had suffered at the academy gates, the first of which had been a full-force, bare-handed strike exceeding 150 degrees in angle…

Green's expression grew even more somber.

However, fortunately, he had the Key of Friendship from Blacksota as a life-saving trump card. After taking a deep breath, Grimm calmly said, "It seems that this battle is unavoidable?"

A playful, cold laugh rang out, but coming from the bull-like wizard apprentice, it sounded somewhat muffled, as if someone had just hummed casually.

"Hmph, since you refuse to join our four major organizations, and you're not one of the other top ten experts, once you're on the kill list, you'll be our absolute target." Gade's hand shot out swiftly, and the battle axe on his back miraculously landed in his hand. With a deafening roar, a violent pressure erupted from Gade's body, and the wisps of purple lightning became even more ferocious, instantly coalescing into a ball of lightning in the sky, seemingly ready to explode at any moment!

A battle was inevitable. Grimm looked at the battle axe in Gade's hand, which was larger than his body. He also reached out and the Sound Tail Bone Dagger landed in his hand. An inextinguishable flame ignited on the dagger, reflecting off the pale skin that was slightly exposed beneath Grimm's pale mask.

The two figures faced off in the sky, but judging from their aura alone, Green was already at a complete disadvantage.

On Grimm's side, despite his mysterious appearance clad in a wide robe, he wasn't carrying a magic wand; instead, he incongruously held a dagger. In contrast, Gade was clad in well-fitting metal armor, wielding a massive battle axe, and possessing a burly physique…

In terms of sheer presence, the difference in power and influence is immediately apparent.

"Green, I'm only asking you one question: what were you doing in the territory of the Twenty Drops of Blood Alliance?" Gade was on the verge of exploding, with countless bolts of lightning flashing wildly around his body, seemingly desperately trying to drill into him. The lightning sphere in the sky became even more solid.

Is this the second level of power among the top ten masters?

After getting a basic idea, Green said calmly, "So what if I told you? Now that you're on that so-called kill list, you won't stop until you become one of the academy's top ten experts..."

boom!

Before Green could finish speaking, a bolt of lightning suddenly erupted from the sky, and the next moment Green's eyes snapped open as his tailbone dagger met the attack.

Ding, squeak...

After a piercing metallic scraping sound, Green's body was involuntarily sent flying more than ten meters backward. Surprisingly, Green's expression relaxed: "As expected, the strength level is only about 75 to 80."

On the other side, Gade, who seemed to have the upper hand, suddenly narrowed his eyes as he looked at Green flying backward, his expression one of disbelief and horror.

How is that possible?!

Why is this person's strength suddenly so great? If I hadn't struck first, with the help of the power of thunder, and if the battle axe hadn't completely suppressed the dagger, I might have been the one flying backward. This... this is really too absurd!

Green sneered inwardly. Had his strength grown to this extent without him even realizing it over the past ten years?

Thinking this, a cold glint flashed in Green's eyes, and he was about to retaliate when a sudden wave of paralysis made his expression change: "Paralysis Power - Thunder Rare Rune?"

On the other side, Gade snapped out of his shock and, seeing Green's expression, sneered: "Hmph, since you've reached the level of one of the top ten masters, why don't you strive for it and instead remain unknown... In that case, you'll die here today and remain unknown forever."

After saying this, Gaide was about to act when he suddenly paused as well!

A cluster of crimson flames was burning fiercely on the lightning on his chest. Despite Gade's frantic attempts to suppress it with bursts of lightning power, the flames seemed to grow even stronger. Even with the armor protecting them, one could already faintly sense the tenacity and scorching heat of this inextinguishable flame.

In shock, Gade unleashed even more lightning power to suppress the undying flames, but it was like adding fuel to the fire; the lightning seemed to be trying to suppress the flames with paper.

Paralyzed and sluggish, Green paused for a moment, and upon seeing the change in behavior, he couldn't help but feel a sense of mockery and curse Gade for being stupid.

If a wizard observes carefully, he will find that the immortality of the flames is difficult to exert without using magic to suppress it, and the armor worn by the opponent is the nemesis of the immortal flames.

But the other party...

A massive ball of lightning enveloped an inextinguishable flame, and the eyes visible beneath Gade's helmet were filled with rage and ferocity.

"Grimm! Let's see who dies first, you or me!" Roaring, Gade's body exploded with violent lightning power, and the next moment he appeared next to Grimm, the cold light of the giant axe making people's hair stand on end.

Green laughed. A Bulls team that doesn't like to fight with their intelligence? That makes things much easier...

With the formula for calculating the intersection of repulsive and attractive forces in mind, a huge repulsive force emerged from Green. The next moment, Green's body unleashed a powerful repulsive force towards Gade, and his body flew more than ten meters away with a whoosh, easily dodging the opponent's axe.

boom!

A bolt of lightning exploded, and the giant axe behind Green followed closely behind with its cold light. Green, however, seemed completely unconcerned. His body twisted and he reappeared dozens of meters away.

boom!

Once again, Gade, battle axe in hand, followed closely, roaring, "Where do you think you're going to run!"

This time, however, Green met the attack head-on with his Sonic Bone Dagger. A piercing metallic scraping sound rang out, and Green was sent flying more than ten meters. Although his recently recovered body was paralyzed again, he still looked at Gade with a mocking expression. The undying flame encased in that ball of lightning, after such frantic "nourishment," was almost bursting with uncontrollable powerful energy fluctuations; his opponent was doomed!

It could be said that Gade was actually killing himself, which is the foolishness and tragedy of a wizard who doesn't fight with wisdom.

"you……"

Gade panicked slightly, a flicker of panic crossing his menacing eyes beneath his helmet.

At this point, Gade had one more option: to calm himself and focus all his energy on controlling a portion of his lightning, allowing the terrifying, inextinguishable flame encased within the lightning sphere to leave his body. (The reason it was terrifying was because it was nourished by his own magic, something he hadn't yet realized.)

Thinking this, Gade roared and without hesitation, his body erupted with lightning, flying aimlessly into the distance, hoping to get rid of Green and then calmly separate the lightning ball.

Green slowly extended his somewhat numb hand, his body contorted, and he followed Gade. Simultaneously, a gravitational force connected the two, and Green was also propelled "at breakneck speed" into the distance, clinging tightly to Gade's back. (Under the control of gravity, Green was being dragged along by Gade.)

"Roar! Green! You..." Gade's expression finally changed as he felt the lightning ball in front of him becoming increasingly difficult to control.

Green had regained his agility and carefully maintained his distance from Gade, coldly saying, "Hunter list? Hmph, tell me... if I were to kill all four of you so-called leaders of the four major Black Sota organizations, would my name still be on that hunter list?"

"You won't succeed!" Gade roared, his body still flying at full speed, trying to shake off Green at the last moment.

A wicked smile crept across Green's lips: "Although time will be tight later, who knows, if the opportunity arises..."

With the assistance of the Flame Giant and with Green fully prepared, Green is quite confident that he can hunt down and kill the second-tier of the top ten wizard apprentices!

As he said this, Green looked at Gade, who had reached his limit, and a golden light flowed across his forehead. Slowly, a golden pupil appeared.

As Gade fled with all his might, he felt his blood suddenly boil. Just as he was about to react and suppress it, the huge ball of lightning in front of his chest suddenly trembled and exploded, instantly engulfing him completely in scorching, inextinguishable flames.

"No……"

A blinding light flashed and disappeared in an instant, followed by a deafening explosion that traveled far into the distance. A raging, inextinguishable flame erupted in the sky, creating a fireball seven or eight meters high, with the rolling heat accompanied by a shockwave that roared into the distance.

A fiery shield swirled in front of Grimm as he squinted and muttered, "He should have quite a few badges on him too..."
