Wizard's Journey

Chapter 679 The Challenger (Part 3)

"Young Master, the second-ranked player on the Seven Rings Holy Tower Ranking has finally achieved three consecutive victories and is challenging you."

A crystal ball floated in front of Xiao Ba. Xiao Ba excitedly flapped its wings and flew over, landing next to Green, who was conducting an experiment on the male venom body-refining poison formula.

"That Aachenso?"

Green directly called out the name of the second-ranked Demon Hunter Wizard on the Seventh Ring Holy Tower Ranking, clearly not so arrogant as to be completely unprepared and know nothing about his challenger.

"Hehe, that's the guy. This demon hunter wizard has won three matches in a row and plans to challenge you, young master, to take the number one spot on the Seven Rings Holy Tower Ranking."

The potion in his hand gradually turned red. After analysis, it was found to be exactly the same as the calculated data of the Green Male Poison Body Refining Formula. With a satisfied smile under his golden hair, Green carefully preserved the test tube.

"Hmph, let's see how strong this challenger is! Little Wan, Thousand-Eyed Crab, let's go!"

Green stood atop the Thousand-Eyed Crab with Little Eight on his shoulder, flying towards the world fragment teleportation array where the rankings of the Seven Rings Holy Tower were contested.

……

The battle for rankings on the Seven Rings Holy Tower is taking place within the World Fragments.

Although this was the third time he had come, Aachenso's mood was noticeably different this time. The complex emotions of excitement and worry mixed together made Aachenso lick his lips.

Even the giant winged lizard and the two small metallic creatures beneath his feet seemed to sense Aachenso's unease, becoming more reserved and silent.

"Little Jin, once you see that Wizard Grimm, tell me all the information about him immediately. Don't get distracted, understand?"

As Aachenso gave his instructions, the golden monkey, his soulmate on his shoulder, perked up and confidently said, "Big brother, you can rest assured and leave it to me."

Roar!

Roar……

Just then, several loud roars came from afar, their provocative intent obvious. Aachenso and Little Gold on his shoulder both changed their expressions.

Previously, these were all provocations and demonstrations initiated by Aachenso. But now, as if sensing the oppressive atmosphere, Aachenso's side's momentum weakened before the battle even began, suppressed by the powerful wizard who had not yet appeared in the distance.

"Walk!"

Aachenso gritted his teeth and uttered only one word.

After flying for about half an hourglass's time, a twenty-meter-tall black and gold fire giant, a thirty-meter-tall thousand-eyed giant crab, and a thirty-meter-tall thousand-headed bird appeared in the distant sky, brazenly displaying their powerful strength, and stood in a row, coldly staring at Aachenso on the flesh-winged giant lizard.

"hiss……"

Aachenso gasped.

Having only obtained the data without experiencing it firsthand, Aachenso didn't feel anything. But when he was actually facing three level-three creatures, Aachenso felt as if the air around him was desperately squeezing him, making it hard to breathe.

"Xiao Jin, quick, where's Green?!"

Aachenso suddenly remembered the information about the Hermit Wizard Grimm, but he couldn't find any trace of him. He immediately felt a cold sweat break out on his back, and the small metal creatures flying around him immediately assumed a battle stance and began to fly around Aachenso at high speed.

The Flesh-Winged Giant Lizard was roaring defiantly at the Mysterious Thousand-Headed Bird, but in terms of sheer force, it seemed to be much weaker.

"Big brother, no... no, it's impossible for us, it's too strong, his energy reaction is too strong! That energy wave, nearly a hundred meters wide, has obscured all his information, I can only sense the general direction over there."

The golden monkey on Aachenso's shoulder bared its teeth and spoke in disbelief. Aachenso looked in the direction the monkey was sensing, but found nothing; the gray sky was empty.

The other party is keeping a secret!

If someone suddenly attacks from right next to you...

Roar!

However, the Mysterious Thousand-Headed Bird, which was confronting the Flesh-Winged Giant Lizard, pounced. Its massive body and seventy-three heads emitted different roars as it charged towards the Flesh-Winged Giant Lizard. The Flesh-Winged Giant Lizard, carrying Aachenso, actually engaged in a fierce battle with the Mysterious Thousand-Headed Bird.

"Giggle, giggle, Xiao Wan, go! Bite it to death!"

Xiao Ba shouted loudly on the mysterious Thousand-Headed Bird.

The two chimeras attacked each other. The Fleshwing Giant Lizard's jaws had an unimaginable bite force and the sharpness of its claws. In one round of attacks, it actually injured three of the Enigma Bird's heads.

An astonishing scene unfolded: the three heads that the Mysterious Thousand-Headed Bird had just lost immediately regenerated, and it viciously lunged at the Flesh-Winged Giant Lizard once more.

Numerous heads were bitten into the fleshy winged giant lizard, and the energy from the flesh-eroding process seeped into it.

On the other side, the eight-meter-long Flame Soul Giant's Flame Soul Greatsword, wreathed in darkness, slashed down from the sky, its twenty-meter-tall fiery elemental body distorting the surrounding air with awe-inspiring power.

"Big brother, be careful! This elemental-activated creature has two mouths on its chest and back that can devour souls and certain emotions. It also has the ability to manipulate fire domains and is currently gathering a high-concentration fire shockwave. Its weapon is connected to a mysterious... 4,571 degrees, chirp!"

Amidst the distorted interplay of light and darkness, the golden monkey cried out in terror, and with a crackling sound, a black arc of electricity appeared.

"Four thousand five hundred and seventy-one degrees!? High-level qualitative change energy of the Holy Mark!"

Aachenso was incredulous. High-level qualitative change energy was a power wielded only by Stigmata Wizards and a very small number of top-tier Level 3 Grand Wizards, yet it had appeared in the body of a Level 2 Wizard!?

This means that Aachenso must never engage in direct combat with any elemental magic, otherwise it will crumble at the first touch!

After an elemental teleportation carried its soul companion away, the flesh-winged giant lizard, which had been caught in the jaws of the Mysterious Bird, was struck by an arc of annihilation power. A protective shield formed by a strange energy blocked the attack of annihilation power, and the chimera was removed from the world fragment.

This……

Never get close to him!

The wizard's robes fluttered, magic surged, and Aachenso was about to gather magic to cast some powerful spell when he heard the golden monkey on his shoulder shout again.

"Be careful!"

In that split second, the Thousand-Eyed Crab swiftly swung one of its giant claws at an incredible speed. With two "whoosh" sounds, the two small metallic creatures beside Aachenso rushed forward to meet it.

Click!

The tiny metallic creature, only the size of a fist, managed to fend off the Thousand-Eyed Giant Crab.

"Um!?"

Turning around, Aachenso unleashed his full power, and two intertwined blue-purple energy beams appeared precisely at the location of Grimm's elemental teleportation.

"Hit!"

But Green's gray-white mask revealed cold, calm eyes. With a wave of his ram-horned skull magic wand, he easily deflected Aachenso's attack, then casually pointed with his other hand.

Crackling sounds!

After being struck by the black arc of electricity, Aachenso's figure flashed, and he was also protected by the strange energy before being removed from the fragment of this world.
