Although almost all of the Black Iron Transcendentalists under the Church of Original Sin were wiped out, most of the dwarf monkeys were also killed, except for a few who escaped.
Even the bronze-level 1-star dwarf monkey wizard was severely injured and was fleeing towards the mountain stronghold. The burly man, representing rage, was chasing after him with a fanatical expression.
He was three meters tall at this moment, with veins all over his body thrashing under his skin like small blue snakes, and his whole body was red, shrouded in a layer of intangible psionic rage.
He grew angrier and braver, and braver and angrier, his resistance to psionic energy and various spells reached an extremely high level, and his physical abilities were also pushed to the limit.
Once he started fighting, he couldn't stop; he had long since lost his mind. Some of the disoriented cultists were even cut in two because they were too close.
At this moment, the burly man was chasing wildly towards the dwarf monkey village, and no one could stop him. No one did try to stop him, because only four or five of them were still alive.
The gluttonous fat man had also lost his mind and began to devour the corpses before him, indiscriminately stuffing them into his mouth, whether they were cultists or dwarf monkeys. His gaping maw devoured everything, including dirt and stones!
The arrogant young man remained remarkably calm, showing no signs of distress despite the intense battle.
At this moment, he completely ignored the burly man who had already disappeared, and the fat man sitting on the ground stuffing everything into his mouth. In his mind, both of them were useless, unable to even grasp the original sin, and instead controlled by it, utterly unworthy of being compared to him.
He sprinted towards the mountain in front of him, each step propelling him more than ten meters away, disappearing almost instantly.
Also present were two or three cultists of original sin. Apart from the middle-aged extraordinary individual on the path of magic who was leading them, they were all seriously injured.
The middle-aged superhuman looked at the mess before him with an inscrutable expression, a bitter smile tugging at the corner of his mouth, and began to provide temporary treatment to the remaining cult members…
That arrogant young man didn't even take a minute to reach the top of the mountain, much more generous than Zhao Hao and his gang who were acting like dogs and sneaky.
Because Zhao Hao and his group's battle had completely attracted the attention of all the remaining pterosaurs. Of course, that arrogant young man certainly hadn't thought that far ahead.
When he reached the mountaintop, he saw Zhao Hao and his four companions struggling to hold on against a group of pterosaurs.
The Black Lincoln, having advanced to Bronze, transformed into a Black Giant, standing eight meters tall, with muscles bulging like cast iron, reflecting the sunlight.
He clung to a boulder four meters in diameter, struggling to defend himself against the mother dragon's various attacks.
Physical attacks were manageable, but the mother dragon could unleash an invisible breath—the Storm Breath.
This is a bizarre, peeling hurricane that unfolds layer by layer.
Even this hard volcanic rock, tempered by psionic energy for many years, can have a layer of its outer layer scraped off if it's even slightly grazed. And this isn't just physical damage; it also comes with a massive psionic attack.
The large rock in Black Lincoln's hand was actually much bigger than it was originally, but it has been shrunk now!
If it weren't for Zhao Hao's barrier and Xiao Ruan's assistance, it would have been almost impossible for him to stop this mother dragon.
Fortunately, he had a lot of dark flesh, so he was quite durable. Ordinary wind blades couldn't even leave a scratch on him, just like a plastic knife scratching glass.
Even the mother dragon's wind magic only scratched the surface. It can hold out for now.
With this level of defense, Zhao Hao estimated it was almost on par with his own fully activated defenses. Truly a competent meat shield.
The other three were dealing with another male dragon, as well as dozens of black iron-level pterosaurs.
Seeing this situation, the arrogant young man did not share Zhao Hao's desire to remain humble and unassuming.
If it were Zhao Hao, he would definitely wait a while to observe the situation. When two tigers fight, one will surely be injured. He would then act according to the circumstances.
However, this arrogant youth felt that his companions were dominated by original sin and were not worthy to be his companions, but in reality, he himself was also filled with arrogance.
With a wave of its hand, it smashed two small pterosaurs that were on the verge of battle and were blocking its path into a pulp, then rushed straight to the lava pit below the crater, about to leap up the black stone pillar and head towards the Ark of the Covenant.
However, the mother dragon cherished the Ark of the Covenant more than her own husband, and with at least three-tenths of her attention focused on it, she immediately reacted.
With a roar, it swung its long, thin, meteor-hammer-like tail through the air.
With a strange "bang," Zhao Hao actually saw the white cloud of air that appeared from the sonic boom, and the tail wasn't aimed at the arrogant youth, since it was still a hundred or two meters away.
But an unseen wind hammer struck the arrogant youth at supersonic speed.
Chapter 372 I Have No Way Out But to Die
Pride is the first original sin. Legend has it that Lucifer was cast into hell and became one of Satans because he was too arrogant and disobedient to God's discipline.
As the Church of Original Sin's greatest hope, this arrogant young man's strength was naturally considerable.
Pride is a very special original sin; it's like the feeling that if you can't kill me, I'll become stronger. Every time I do something, it increases my strength, whether it's physical attributes, skills, spells, or psionic power.
While greed and gluttony are indeed shortcuts to evil paths, they pale in comparison to pride.
Therefore, this arrogant young man is already a Bronze 2-star at a young age. His combat strength is the highest in the Church of Original Sin, and he has been able to gain the upper hand in many battles against other Bronze enemies.
This only fueled his arrogance and further increased his power. A positive cycle!
Just imagine how powerful this extraordinary path must be! Of course, we won't even mention the side effects.
However, even with such strength as this arrogant youth, a well-rounded warrior comparable to a Bronze 2-star, with no weaknesses in physical strength, magic, psionic energy, or mental prowess, he still couldn't dodge the mother dragon's tail whip attack.
The speed of that sonic air hammer was so fast that it was impossible to dodge. Even Zhao Hao... If it were Zhao Hao, he would activate the Musou Reincarnation, a 100% dodge skill.
However, the arrogant youth did not have such ability. He only had time to cross his arms in front of him before the air hammer struck him.
With a muffled "bang," the surrounding air exploded as the condensed sonic hammer, leaving white streaks in the air, struck the arrogant youth's arms.
The air expanded in the next instant, like a bomb exploding.
When the thick smoke and dust cleared, the black stone pillar behind the young man was about to collapse due to the explosion, with rubble scattered all over the ground.
The young man's clothes were completely torn to shreds, and his fair skin was covered in beads of blood.
This arrogant young man's body was already very strong, no less than that of an ordinary Bronze 1-star martial artist. However, even so, he was blasted by this sonic hammer, causing his capillaries to rupture and leaving him covered in blood!
Fortunately, this arrogant youth had a high level of psionic energy, a large total amount of psionic energy, and some high-level spells. He consumed a lot of psionic energy to offset most of the damage, so he only suffered superficial injuries.
But the arrogant young man was furious!
"Damn you lowly reptile, how dare you harm my noble body!" He was filled with anger and arrogance.
Everyone: "..."
Brother, weren't you the one who tried to steal their things first?
However, after that arrogant young man's behavior, the blood on his skin miraculously seeped back into his skin, and his injuries seemed to have healed!
This is the original sin of arrogance; if you are arrogant enough, you can get results that defy common sense.
The hurricane mother dragon also sensed something was wrong, especially since this young man was being too damn bullying. His arrogance disgusted any being with self-awareness, so it turned around and confronted the arrogant young man.
The arrogant youth was genuinely arrogant; it wasn't feigned. He truly felt that the mother dragon had harmed him, a heinous act of transgression that he felt he had to punish. Therefore, he abandoned his attempt to seize the Ark of the Covenant and instead engaged the mother dragon in battle.
His entire body surged with spiritual energy, making him appear like a god descending to earth, and he was even able to fly in the air for a while. He raised his two fists and engaged the thirty-meter-long mother dragon in battle!
Zhao Hao and the others were stunned: Is he really that tough?
However, Zhao Hao and Black Lincoln seized the opportunity to take the Ark of the Covenant.
Isn't it perfect to have this idiot youth hold off the mother dragon? If the two of us alert her, we'll probably be surrounded and attacked by both sides again.
Now, Zhao Hao and Lincoln helped the other three deal with the other male Hurricane Pteranodon and a bunch of pteranodon pups.
Unlike the black Lincoln, Zhao Hao didn't dash over in a flash, crushing the stones beneath his feet.
He walked slowly and deliberately, appearing somewhat leisurely. But every time his foot touched the ground, a faint, almost imperceptible fluctuation of psionic energy would flash by.
Zhao Hao had just been pondering how to deal with the mother dragon.
This thing is incredibly powerful, not to mention extremely troublesome. It can fly, has an absurdly high vitality, extremely high psionic resistance, and a massive amount of psionic energy...
In a normal battle, if I don't use my trump card, these five people might fight for a whole day and night to determine the winner, and they might not even be a match for me!
After all, how can a human compare to the physical strength of a large animal?
Moreover, if the mother dragon can't win, she can run away; her own barrier might not be able to stop her. Unless she uses those high-end barriers, but that would expose her other trump cards.
In short, obtaining the Ark of the Covenant is extremely difficult.
However, if one truly wants to defeat this mother dragon, it is impossible to avoid revealing one's true identity.
The Enderman Raistlin, the one-legged warrior Kenjiro Hanma, and the Celestial General Li Aoran—one of them has to be revealed.
Zhao Hao didn't want to reveal his true intentions because of official tasks; who knew what kind of reaction would result?
Besides these, what other methods can be relatively subtle, inconspicuous, yet powerful enough?
After thinking it over, Zhao Hao decided on an alchemy array!
Give yourself enough time to quietly set up a powerful enough alchemical array to suppress the mother dragon, and then "join forces" with your teammates to defeat it. That would be perfect.
However, it takes a long time; don't even think about it without two or three hours of preparation.
However, that arrogant young man appeared!
Although Zhao Hao had other plans due to the appearance of this idiot youth, he didn't need to abandon the alchemy array. So he appeared somewhat relaxed at this moment, but in reality, he was secretly setting up the alchemy array.
That arrogant young man did have reason to be proud. As a Bronze 2-star transcendent, he was able to fight against a Bronze 3-star Dragon Vein Dragon, which was quite remarkable.
With a single punch, bronze scales flew and dragon blood splattered everywhere; the blow was incredibly solid.
Of course, the mother dragon's blows were even more powerful; a single wing strike could send him flying more than ten meters before crashing into the rocks on the ground.
But that young man was proud—every time he stood up defiantly, his face full of arrogance, and his injuries would heal considerably. That's why he was able to hold on for so long.
Although it can't compare to the Black Giant Lincoln in terms of defense, its tenacious, sticky nature is truly a headache.
Here, Zhao Hao and his group of five gathered. Apart from Xiluo singing and playing music for the pterosaur cubs, the other four were dealing with the male pterosaur.
Compared to the female pterosaur, this male pterosaur was much weaker. Although it was also a Bronze 1-star, its bloodline was thin.
If the mother dragon is an elite monster, then it's just a normal monster; although its level isn't low, it's nothing special.
After several rounds, the four of them had actually managed to subtly stop the male dragon. Although the dragon was still struggling, it couldn't shake off their encirclement and couldn't even take off. It could only be entangled by the four of them on the ground.
The four men looked at each other, neither of them using their full strength, and just stood there waiting it out.
"What should we do?" Prada whispered.
“How about we team up with that guy?” Sam said.
Black Lincoln shook his head: "How could that be? Does he look like he respects us?"
Zhao Hao and his three companions were stalling there to discuss their strategy.
If they really managed to defeat the male dragon, the female dragon might turn around and attack them. Moreover, with the five of them watching them from the side, the dragon and the female dragon would definitely not fight back. So they decided to stall and think of a way to deal with the situation.
After a long time, they still couldn't come up with a solution. Instead, the male dragon became impatient. He tried to break through several times but was repeatedly hit hard. His movements and reactions became slower and slower, and he seemed unable to hold on any longer.
Although Zhao Hao and the others didn't go all out, this male dragon was just an ordinary monster, how could it withstand a four-on-one attack?
Seeing this, Zhao Hao said, "I do have a plan... but I'm afraid it's a dead end!"
