Chapter 442: Chapter 364: Mysterious Female Voice Chapter 442: Chapter 364: Mysterious Female Voice At this mont, the Elder Fire Elent had already gone on a killing spree.
Its massive flaming body rolled over the crowd, engulfing the fleeing players and turning them into fuel.
“Holy crap, run!”
“This thing can’t be killed!”
“You die if you touch it. Such strong AOE! Isn’t this trial a bit over the top?”
The Elder Fire Elent was a complete incarnation of fla, born to burn everything. It tried to turn all creatures and objects in the Pri Material Plane to ashes — it was in its nature.
Previously controlled by Misha, the Elder Fire Elent had suppressed its strength. Now, it could finally release it to its fullest.
On Balash Volcano, flowing flas and surging magma were everywhere, resembling a volcanic eruption.
Facing this monster with a challenge level as high as 13, and also immune to fire, the players were at a loss.
In this version of Northern Wind and Cloud, the top players were mostly affiliated with the Ashen Empire faction, and their techniques were predominantly fire-related.
Moreover, magicians were mainly dragon vein sorcerers, so it went without saying.
But Sumr Night Autumn Rain had already grasped the trial’s intent.
She exhausted all her spell slots, casting Flight Magic, Protective Energy Damage, Acceleration Spell, and many other spells on herself.
“I must survive to qualify for the spot!”
She thought to herself.
“Ahhh—”
A familiar, high-pitched battle cry sounded.
From the distant volcanic rock top, Natural War Maniac, with battle axe in hand and eyes blood-red, jumped down.
“Kill you!”
Natural War Maniac shouted fiercely, swinging his great axe and slashing at the head of the Elder Fire Elent.
“Bang!”
A dull sound echoed as the Elder Fire Elent’s rock-like fist sent both Natural War Maniac and his axe flying dozens of ters.
He fell directly into the lava pool, splashing up scalding “water.”
As a large magical creature, the Elder Fire Elent’s strength reached 25 points, making it impossible for ordinary mortals to compete against.
What’s more, deep within the volcanic environnt, the Elder Fire Elent enjoyed a ho-field advantage.
Now, the fully unleashed Elder Fire Elent was a bane to players, having already eliminated more than fifty of them.
Only about twenty players remained alive, weaving through the sea of fire.
So used the Magic Rope Spell to hide in other-dinsional spaces, so maneuvered with Misty Step, and others used Invisibility techniques to survive in the crevices, all to evade the Elder Fire Elent’s attacks.
The battle had now turned into a ga of “hide and seek.”
The players, fully understanding the situation, employed their techniques, making the cumberso Elder Fire Elent spin in circles, enraging it.
The female magician player from the chanical God Cult, “Art is Explosion,” was particularly outrageous.
“Co on up!”
She dodged in the air using an ejected flying seat, occasionally dropping a bomb that released lightning at the Elder Fire Elent.
“Boom!”
“Zzz—”
Another electromagnetic explosion went off.
The Elder Fire Elent finally could not bear it any longer. It pounded the ground with both fists, letting out an angry roar.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
“Humans! Burn!”
Its massive body flashed red again, greedily drawing from the lava pool, preparing for the next explosion.
This ti, it aid to turn all the humans to ashes!
Burn them all to death!
Suddenly, a cold female voice resonated, echoing in the bustling lava pool, causing the surroundings to fall silent instantly.
“Stop.”
“Congratulations to those who remain. You’ve passed the trial. Welco to the Tower of Everfla.”
The surviving players were instantly overjoyed, with even their lucky surviving team mbers cheering wildly.
“We passed!”
“Got the spot!”
“Hahaha, the only magic system profession in this version, I’m invincible!”
“Roar, restore the sorcerer’s glory!”
The Elder Fire Elent glared hatefully at the celebrating players, especially at the one throwing bombs from the sky, growling in frustration.
“Boom!”
Its rage uncontrollably burst forth, pounding the ground and causing it to tremble.
As a fire elental creature, it was hard for it to calm down without venting all its energy and anger.
“But… Master… Huff… They…”
“These… trialists…”
The Elder Fire Elent panted heavily, with black smoke and white ash constantly rising from its head.
“Oh?”
“Afal, do you intend to defy my order?”
The female voice carried a hint of anger.
“No, Master…”
“It’s not…”
Before he could finish, accompanied by pained pleas for rcy, the Elder Fire Elent clutched its chest. The towering elental body, over ten ters high, suddenly dimd and rapidly shrank.
In the end, the Elder Fire Elent, called “Afal,” transford into a three or four-ter-tall blurry humanoid fla — just like any ordinary fire elent.
Its body flickered and trembled, lacking any of the terrifying nace of its previous rage.
“Lead them.” The female voice commanded flatly.
“Yes…”
The Elder Fire Elent’s voice was weakened, seemingly from losing its long-held strength.
This ti, it finally had no complaints. It cautiously glanced at the players, then began patiently leading the way.
Sumr Night Autumn Rain exclaid in amazent: “To make this Elder Fire Elent so submissive…”
“It seems that the NPC for this advanced task is not ordinary and should be taken seriously.”
So players even ran behind the Elder Fire Elent, provocatively saying: “Weren’t you tough? Weren’t you going to burn us all?”
“Co on? Burn ?”
“I’m so scared!”
“…”
The Elder Fire Elent’s flas trembled, evidently infuriated.
Sumr Night Autumn Rain couldn’t help but remind him: “Don’t push it, what if things go wrong?”
“What are you afraid of? There’s ga chanics in place.”
“We’ve passed so many trials, would we be eliminated over such a small matter?”
The player dismissively waved his hand, confidently speaking, even turning his back to the Elder Fire Elent.
Sumr Night Autumn Rain sighed, facepalming, unable to look directly.
“Co on?”
“Burn , little fla?”
The Elder Fire Elent started to pant, with white smoke rising from its body — commonly known as red heat.
As a noble of the Fire Elental Plane, serving as a servant to a terrifying sorcerer was one thing, but enduring the humiliation of mortals was too much!
The cold female voice spoke again, with a tone of disdain.
“If you don’t understand the most basic etiquette, you’re unworthy of becoming a noble Dragon Pact Warlock.”
“What do you an?”
The player couldn’t help but ask.
“It ans… you’ve been eliminated, Afal!”
“Huh?”
“Wait, buddy…”
The player making faces was instantly dumbfounded, standing there in a daze, unsure of what to do.
The next mont, he scread and started running.
“Obey… the order!”
“Death!”
The Elder Fire Elent’s long-suppressed rage finally burst forth.
“Bang!”
With all its might, it swung its burning fist and smashed the player’s head to pieces.
The charred head rolled a few tis on the ground before coming to a stop.
It seed the Elder Fire Elent had been planning this attack for a while.
Yes, even with its power controlled, the Elder Fire Elent could easily kill a player.
After all of this, it angrily glared at the surrounding players, suggesting they avoid such a fate.
“Holy crap?”
“He just killed him?”
“That guy was asking for trouble — he made it all the way to the end and then just jumped.”
“Yeah, it’s like finishing the exam and tearing up the answer sheet!”
So players were gloating, so were relieved, but all were shocked at the trial’s unpredictability.
But Airez was just like that; all the “NPCs” had high intelligence and unique behavior logic, never confined to a fixed program.
And that was its charm.
“It seems this task NPC is very picky — probably a haughty perfectionist who can’t tolerate flaws.”
“Next… we need to be careful.”
Sumr Night Autumn Rain pondered, rubbing her chin, her eyes flickering slightly as she lowered her head.
