The mother worm leaped at Myles, opening its mouth wide and looking to chomp on his entire upper body in one go.Myles crossed his fingers. “Carnage Shield.”An invisible shield formed before him and not only stopped the worm but also skewered its mouth with energy needles that extended out of the shield, making the mother worm scream in severe pain.It was as if thousands of thin needles had pierced its body and reached deep inside. Moreover, electricity leaked out from those needles and shocked its body in a way it produced flames. Straightaway, it looked like the worm was being cooked from the inside. The mother worm was instantly enraged like never before.It grew in size to the point it was as big as a whale, and it sprayed its toxic saliva at Myles with all the hatred in its gut.However, thanks to the carnage shield, the acid couldn’t even touch Myles.“Nether Rise.” He uttered, and the sandy ground around the mother worm cracked and black flames burst out and roasted the mothe

“Die!” Verella leaped and swiped her claws at Maria. “Bhel Cross!” Flames burst out of her claws and exploded upon impact. Maria activated the Aqua Field in time and suppressed the explosion but she was still pushed back. Verella swiveled toward Rosie and whipped her leg from above Myles’ body. “Great Dragon Cleaver!” Rosie blocked the attack by making a cross with her forearms, but her forearm utterly broke, and Verella’s shin pounded Rosie’s face and sent her rolling back on the sand like a rag doll. Her nose turned into a grotesquerie, and blood poured out nonstop. (She’s built differently than Blue Dog.) Rosie lifted her right hand, and the water from the ocean came to her like a living body and boosted her healing capacity and also stamina. Her broken nose and arm began healing at a rapid rate. Verella looked surprised. (Drawing sustenance even from salt water?) Now she understood why Maria looked so young despite being in late forties. (They have a huge advantage in this loca

Rosie collapsed on her knees as the liquids in her body bubbled and went out of control.“Elemental fields are one of the strong points of the dragon crystals and what make dragons such terrifying creatures,” Shreya uttered, “but the elemental fields can only be used when the caster is calm and composed. And when you lose your temper, I can easily bend your water sword or even make your bones fly out of your body ONE-BY-ONE.” Shreya gestured with her finger, and much of Rosie’s hair was forcibly pulled out of her scalp, making her scream some more.“What should I pull out this time?” Shreya asked. “A tooth, or your trachea bone?” she shook her head. “No. I can’t give you a quick death.”Shreya gripped Rosie by the hair and ground her teeth as she remembered Ayan and how the city was destroyed because of Rosie and Maria.“I’ll disintegrate your body cell by cell,” Shreya focused her gaze, and the skin on Rosie’s face began to peel off, making her squeal and groan.Meanwhile, Blue Dog a

“I know she has a strong water ability,” Blue Dog glanced at Shreya, “but you think she can make it to the nearest island safely, while carrying her daughter who’s only going to be a burden? I find it hard to believe. Only Doyens can do such incomprehensible things.” “She’s not a Doyen yet, but if she learns to manipulate oxygen in the air, then she’ll be an extremely difficult fighter to beat for any alpha in the world,” Shreya opined. “We must take her down before that.” “So you really intend to go after her.” “I lost my precious library, and you also lost your precious students. All because of the Aqua Duo.” Neither Shreya nor Blue Dog knew that it was actually Lexi who brought the mother worm to the city, and they thought the mother worm somehow managed to infiltrate the city. Mother Worm was known to be weak in water, so it must have stealthily snuck into the city through the transport vehicles, they believed. Either way, it didn’t matter now because the city was already destr

“Die!” Shreya squeezed and twisted Myles’ throat like she was squeezing juice out of sugarcane, and he bled from the mouth.“Shreya!” Verella immediately struck Shreya’s arm hard enough she was forced to let go of him.Myles coughed some more blood as he staggered and gasped for air. If Verella hadn’t stopped Shreya, his head might have already separated from his torso.Justin, Casey, and Biskie were sweating and gulping their saliva in trepidation. They felt like their lives were insignificant, and Shreya could kill them whenever she wanted.“Why are you defending this man who fought on the side of Aqua Duo?” Shreya demanded an answer, ready to fight if necessary.“He fought on their side? What do you mean?” Verella looked clueless.Blue Dog then explained everything. “Not only did he side with those criminals, he managed to snatch the cobra crystal out of Shreya’s hand. You think anyone can do that? He’s clearly hiding his strength.”Verella looked at Myles. “Are they speaking the t
