Chapter 597 Dragon Fist
Seeing the blue ball of fire, Greene knew whose attack it was.
“Roland!”
After Greene roared, he subconsciously used Imprisonment on himself. The translucent magic barrier was frighteningly large, enveloping all of the two hundred or so Mages with him. Then the blue fireball blasted over.
Where it passed, the night was as bright as day.
The air was rising and distorting.
With terrified eyes, all the people in the Spatial Magic Tower looked at this blue fireball flying over.
Greene was a Legendary Mage, and he was able to cast Imprisonment three more times in the short three seconds it took for the blue fireball to reach them.
The magical light film formed by the four layers of barriers was already almost a centimeter thick.
All the people present were knowledgeable, and they naturally knew what four layers of level-five defensive barriers meant.
They felt a sense of security and a little peace of mind.
But as the fireball flew over, their mouths subconsciously opened wide; they didn’t dare to exhale.
Because the blue ball of fire was just too big.
Its diameter was at least five meters or more.
A transparent ring of air flowing around the front of the fireball’s flight had even formed! “S*it!”
Greene saw this circle of aerial energy field that looked like a vertical round cover and immediately understood that… his own four layers of defensive magic could not block it at all.
He searched his coat pocket with his right hand and was about to pull out a true life-saving magic scroll.
But just then, the intelligent golem leaped from their rear and landed in front of the defensive magic barrier, opening its hands to meet the giant blue fireball.
The blue fireball came into contact with the giant… In an instant, there was a loud rumble, and the world was filled with daylight except for a huge black human figure in the center of the explosion.
The spatial Mages’ eyes were tearing up from the glare.
But they didn’t dare blink for fear that the large black figure in the white light would fall.
They knew all too well that once the golem fell, there was no one left to save them.
So even though their eyes were red and sore, they didn’t dare to close them.
Intense white light twisted around the black figure, and although the golem blocked most of the explosion’s energy, the blast still swept past it before crashing into the magic barrier.
The red blast swept by the large barrier.
The light film of the magic barrier emitted an irritating creaking sound, and the outermost layer even cracked.
Many people’s hearts were in their throats.
But the good thing was that after ten seconds, the red blast became milder.
And the huge golem in front of them didn’t fall.
He still had his arms wide open to block it, but his whole body had turned dark red.
Even the magical metal Fine Gold, which was said to be extremely hard, would morph under such high temperatures.
After the blue fireball exploded, no one else could be detected ahead except for the intelligent golem.
It seemed that Roland hit them with a surprise attack, and ran away after seeing that it did not affect them.
Greene removed Imprisonment and shouted to the golem, “Go find Roland and kill him. Now that he used this spell, he shouldn’t have much magic power left.”

“But I don’t have much energy left either.” The golem turned back. “Elder Greene, if I pursue at will, once I run out of energy, it is highly likely that I will be trapped by Roland.”
What a pity!
This was the time when Roland should be most vulnerable.
But it was also true that the intelligent golem was almost out of energy.
How about I go?
This thought arose and Greene was moved, but then he shook his head and gave up on the idea.
Roland certainly might not have much magic power left now, but he was still capable of Elemental Embodiment.
More importantly, he had to get these two hundred people back to the Magic Tower right away.
These people were the future of the Spatial Magic Tower.
“Then we’ll go back to Tebesia, and Barton, you’ll be in charge of protecting us from behind,” Greene shouted.
The intelligent golem nodded as he went around to the back of the group and immediately saw the Golden Sons who were coming after them.
The players weren’t aware that the golem didn’t have much energy left at this point, and they stayed away for fear of another tornado whirlwind slash from the golem.
But they saw the golem’s health bar, which had dropped by another fifteen percent or so.
The total health of the intelligent golem was now only a little over seventy percent.
“Wow, Roland just made that big explosion, didn’t he? It’s awesome, blowing off such a long section of health immediately.”
“I feel like there’s a chance. Want to dash for it?”
“It’s better not to rush. I’ve already died twice, and if I die again, I’ll drop to level six. Experience is hard to earn.”
“There’s no rush. There’s no time limit on the quest, so let’s take our time. Just keep exhausting this golem, it will break one day.”
“Then let’s retreat for now and go to Tebesia for more trouble tomorrow.”
The players didn’t fear death but were quite wary of it.
They were fairly unafraid to die when the inevitable happened in the game, but if there were a glimmer of hope, they would also try to find ways to escape and not let their characters simply die.
So instead they stayed at their base and did not pursue.
Their eyes fixed on Greene and the Mages as they left.
They thought that they had come out on top anyway by taking out quite a few Mages in that previous wave of attacks.
They would just continue tomorrow. There was no rush now.
Seeing that the Golden Sons had no desire to fight, the golem also slowly left.
Within a few moments, the masses from the Spatial Magic Tower disappeared into the curtain of night.
Roland’s magic spider transferred these images to his mind, and after he finished watching them, he was about to rejoin the players in the base.
But it was at this moment that he suddenly felt an awful chill.
A vicious chill that struck straight into his soul fell from the sky.
He subconsciously dodged to the side, using all his strength, his speed quite fast.
Just then, white light fell from the sky and hit directly where Roland had just been.
A large crater appeared on the ground.
The blast was overwhelming.
Roland was jolted backward, countless clods of earth hitting his Magic Shield.
In this situation where one’s vision was compromised, Roland still caught sight of the enemy.
It was a woman in a white robe with dark red eyes and a pair of small horns on her headshe also wore white scaly armor.
She half-crouched in the deep pit, then turned quickly and looked at Roland.
Her dark red eyes were filled with a horrifying desire to kill.
Roland thought the woman’s outfit looked familiar, as if he had seen it before.
As he was thinking about this, the woman suddenly lowered her body and charged at him.
Behind her, a wave of displaced air appeared.
Damn! Supersonic speed?
He was a quick thinker, but even so, Roland’s brief thought had just surfaced and the woman had already appeared in front of him.
Through the light blue Magic Shield, Roland saw that the woman wore a wild smile. Her eyes were also the type that seemed murderous.
Appearing in front of Roland, she then threw a punch.
A large number of cracks appeared on the magic barrier.
Before Roland had time to think, he, who had been jolted into midair, flew backward like a cannonball and crashed into the wall behind him, leaving a nice human-sized crater.
After that, his Magic Shield shattered.
The players were stunned to see this.
Where’s this woman from?
Just as they were wondering, the white-armored woman moved again.
She opened her mouth and shouted at the players in front of her.
First, a terrifying noise shattered the eardrums of a large number of players.
Trails of blood flowed out of the players’ ears.
Especially the players standing at the front of the line.
Many people passed out directly because their ears were destroyed.
After the woman roared, she looked toward Roland.
Only to then find that Roland, who was supposed to be set in the wall, was gone.
After a brief daze, she faced upward and let out a roar like a dragon’s roar.
After the roar, she looked at those players with an annoyed sneer.
Then came a massacre!
The white figure wove back and forth through the thousands of professionals—unstoppable.
She killed from night to early morning, her entire body covered in what the players saw as pixels.
But to the NPC’s eyes, she was covered in blood, much of it already pulpy black.
After killing all the players in the base, the woman leisurely left.
After confirming that she was gone, the players finally dared to return to their base.
Then posts about the identity of this white-armored woman proliferated on the forums.
Many players who knew how to make a profit had already turned on the recording functioning long before the battle began.
So this time, there were at least two dozen video battle reports posted on the forums.
Below these videos, the discussions were pretty much the same.
“‘Sh*t, even Roland couldn’t block a punch. She’s too powerful.”
“This must be a giant dragon incarnate. I’ve closely studied Schuck’s mount, Margret, and found that both have a unique quality, which is that both wear scaled armor and have small horns on their heads.”
“It’s not strange for a giant dragon to turn into a human. But not many dragons are willing to follow people, and according to my intelligence, on average, there may not be a dragon that will form a contract with a human in a hundred years. Schuck is the exception.”
“This woman is also beautiful, though not as good as the little fire dragon princess Margret. But I think I can have a human-animal communication with her, the kind where both spirit and flesh communicate.”
“Why do I feel as if she’s weaker? Like I can defeat her in minutes, and in less than five seconds, she’ll be on her knees begging me not to die.”
“Upstairs, I almost read that backward.”
At this time, Roland had already teleported back to Delpon.
After the white-armored woman had arrived, the Dimensional Anchor scrolls that the players had thrown out had already expired.
After all, it was a magic scroll, and its duration and strength were relatively poor.
After being punched into the wall by this woman, Roland knew for sure he couldn’t beat her.
For in this woman, Roland saw a reflection of Andonara.
The same force and speed, the same simplicity and amazing reflexes.
This woman should be on about the same level as Andonara.
And when Roland used to spar with Andonara, the living daylights were beaten out of him.
Now Roland was lying in bed, his face a little pale.
The expression on Andonara’s face, on the other hand, became furious.
For she found that the bones in Roland’s whole body, almost all of them, were broken.
If the players didn’t only have ten percent pain perception, Roland would have screamed in agony.
But even so, Roland felt rather uncomfortable all over.
“I’d like to kill someone.”
Andonara slung the Hero’s sword around her waist.
