Chapter 417: Chapter 232: Please Let Me Explain, This Is Really a Misunderstanding!

As Siegfried locked eyes with the White Dragon, thoughts raced through his mind:

’White Dragon?’

’The White Dragon has also reached a collaboration with the Soladin Kingdom?’

’This....’

Unable to explore why this situation has arisen, he is urgently confronted with two pressing issues.

First, the ’Devout Prayers’ only has three seconds remaining, and from the viewpoint of maximum efficiency, he must release the spell he is casting.

Second, without the amplification of the Realm of Light and Shadow and the restriction on the kingdom’s team, his spell at this moment, if still aimed at the kingdom’s team, would not achieve the expected effect.

In fact, if he were to unleash the Negative Energy Storm as planned on the kingdom’s members, the risk during the subsequent retreat would undoubtedly be high.

Because the White Dragon above would easily discover his teleportation location.

Therefore, for the sake of safety....

In an instant, such thoughts flashed through Siegfried’s mind like a revolving lantern.

And he immediately determined a response plan.

On the Valzeg Continent, the reputation of Casters remains prevalent, largely because Casters compared to other Classes, are more cautious and, when sensing danger, they often preemptively suppress or even extinguish it directly.

Thus, raising his palm and aiming at the White Dragon in the sky didn’t seem out of place for Siegfried.

"White Dragon, no matter your dealings with the Soladin Kingdom, now, face the consequences you should bear!" Accompanying the angry words of Siegfried is the dark energy beam shooting skyward.

This is Siegfried’s well-thought decision to prioritize his own safety, ensuring a safe retreat above all.

Not!

Damn!

The large dragon eyes of White Dragon Shuang Zhuo suddenly contracted!

But at this moment, she had no choice but to immediately respond.

Although purely from a strength perspective, Siegfried is naturally weaker than White Dragon Shuang Zhuo.

But the issue is, the outcome of battles isn’t simply determined by the level of Classes, nor just a direct comparison of their raw power.

Just like now.

Siegfried enjoys the Upcasting boost from the ’Devout Prayers’ and has the advantage of nearly completing the chant of his spell.

In other words, Siegfried released an attack with power slightly weaker than a standard Seventh Level Spell in just one or two seconds!

In comparison.

The adult White Dragon Shuang Zhuo, with a Challenge Level as high as Level 16, realizing she might have unwittingly helped, was momentarily stunned before finding the attack close at hand.

This meant Shuang Zhuo had to face an attack of a quasi-Seventh Level Spell unprepared.

And this, even for an adult White Dragon, was a significant challenge.

"Damn it, you bastard."

As Shuang Zhuo cursed in her heart, the best she could do was immediately cast an Ice Spike Shield at near-instant speed and flap her large white wings, whipping up a fierce wind and setting her gigantic white dragon wings in a crossed protective stance in front of her.

In the span of one second, she consecutively released two spells above the Fourth Level and swiftly switched to a defensive posture.

Shuang Zhuo’s strength is undeniably formidable.

However, when facing Siegfried’s much-anticipated strike, it still appeared somewhat rushed.

An Ice Spike Shield was shattered by the black light beam in the blink of an eye, and the remaining wave of Erosion Energy firmly struck White Dragon Shuang Zhuo.

"Roar!"

An extraordinarily clear yet painfully tinged dragon roar echoed over Dorne City.

Although the flesh of the adult Giant Dragon is exceedingly resilient, usually possessing basic resistance to all types of magic, this generally applies to lower-level spells, namely Third Level and below.

When facing Transcendent Spells of Level 6 and above, unless it is an ancient dragon or a special dragon type, in most cases, it will similarly suffer significant damage.

As the originally sleek, majestic White Dragon Shuang Zhuo, covered in pure white scales, now exhibits varying sizes of black corrosive spots on her scales.

From a distance, she appears like a leprous white dragon.

The most severely injured part, however, was her wings.

Although shielding with her wings was the right decision, greatly mitigating the spell’s damage from Siegfried, the relatively fragile wings bore the undue burden, now corroded by the Erosion Energy into seven or eight uneven holes.

Moreover, the remaining Erosion Energy in the holes continues to corrode and expand the hole diameter.

Of course, while Shuang Zhuo’s injuries appear severe, Siegfried’s attack did not inflict a fatal injury on her.

Facing Siegfried’s blow, which could have severely wounded her, ignited Shuang Zhuo’s fury in an instant!

The thought of explaining vanished immediately.

In Shuang Zhuo’s view.

Even if she made an operational ’minor error,’ it would resolve with an apology.

But the other’s approach to resorting to violence at the slightest disagreement was utterly outrageous!

Isn’t this a privilege exclusive to White Dragons?

Though Shuang Zhuo is much steadier than ordinary White Dragons, such a degree of ’provocation’ and attack instantly triggered the brutality deep within her White Dragon Bloodline.
