Chapter 892: Charging Towards the Evil Dragon
Xiao Fei, suffering a sudden attack, inevitably began to fall.
“Your Majesty!”
In mid-air, Junko reacted quickly, grabbing Shokuhou Misaki's body, which was almost flung off, at the first moment.
—The blond man on the ground was indeed an enemy, launching an attack without a word.
For a creature as massive as “Xiao Fei,” merely being able to fly in the air was already defying physics, let alone carrying two young girls at the same time.
In this situation, with a large hole suddenly punched through the wings that provided the necessary lift and propulsion for flight, the only outcome awaiting them was a stall and crash!
Junko felt incredibly fortunate at this moment that she had insisted on riding the dragon with Her Majesty every time, which was why she could intervene in time to save her.
“My Xiao Fei!” Shokuhou Misaki wailed.
With Junko by her side, she wasn't worried about her own safety, but she felt deeply distressed about Xiao Fei's condition.
Injured wings could be healed later, but falling from such a high altitude… she would be flattened into a meat patty!
“Sorry, Your Majesty!” Junko continuously stomped on the air, neutralizing the momentum of their fall.
—Even I can't save Xiao Fei; she's too big!
Although Junko also liked and doted on Xiao Fei, compared to her, Her Majesty was, of course, more important. In Junko's opinion, there was no need to even think about the choice.
However, Xiao Fei did not just sit there and wait for death. After tumbling a few times in the air, she surprisingly regained her balance, diligently spreading her wings to circle and glide.
Flying higher was impossible, but slowing down as much as possible to achieve a soft landing shouldn't be difficult…
After the fatal crisis was averted, Xiao Fei locked onto the culprit of the recent attack.
Xiao Fei, equipped with a human brain, had high intelligence and, of course, held grudges.
Thump, thump, thump…
Junko heard the familiar ignition sound from above and quickly shouted, “Don't!”
Do not provoke the man on the ground.
To ordinary people, a flying dragon was indeed a powerful and terrifying monster, but ultimately, it was just a relatively strong beast.
Beasts could threaten ordinary humans, but they could never be a match for an “army.”
And the Knight Captain alone was a powerful army!
But her warning came too late. Blazing flames spewed from Xiao Fei's mouth, pouring down and sweeping towards the enemy's location.
“Now that's more like it.” The Knight Captain, instead, showed a satisfied expression. Only by breathing fierce fire could it be considered an evil dragon!
Shokuhou Misaki, witnessing this from the air, grew even more anxious.
Ever since taking in Xiao Fei, Shokuhou Misaki had always treated her as a “pet,” never expecting any combat ability from her.
“Runzi-jie!” Shokuhou Misaki called out, simultaneously pressing the remote control towards the Knight Captain below.
“Understood!” Junko nodded, accelerating her descent towards the ground.
The Knight Captain punched again, the strong punch tearing through the descending flames, then, with undiminished force, heavily slammed into the flying dragon's body.
Xiao Fei's chest caved in, the flames from her mouth abruptly cut off, and she couldn't even let out a wail.
Like a startled small animal, she whimpered and rolled to the side, crashing onto the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.
Knowing that this was a owned creature, the Knight Captain held back, not directly using dragon-slaying techniques, but merely punching it with ordinary force.
—However, the owner of this evil dragon didn't seem to appreciate his goodwill.
Although he was at fault first, upon recognizing the identities of the two girls—or more accurately, Shokuhou Misaki's identity—the Knight Captain had already prepared for an inevitable battle today.
Academy City's only eight top-tier combatants—Level 5 Espers.
Undoubtedly, this seemingly powerless young girl was a genuine powerhouse!
The Knight Captain himself was also a powerhouse, so he knew perfectly well—powerhouses possessed self-respect commensurate with their strength; in such a situation, it could absolutely not be resolved with a mere apology.
—And, “Mental Out,” mind control ability?
The Knight Captain forced himself to ignore the two girls slowly descending from the air, following his honed martial artist's instinct, and swung a hand-blade strike behind him.
Whoosh!
The sharp palm wind tore through the turf on the ground, extending nearly ten meters before finally weakening.
“Missed, just a little off…” The Knight Captain narrowed his eyes, the sensation was wrong—it was empty.
And in all his perceptions, that direction was just an empty space.
Only the battle intuition formed from countless battles told him—he was just a little bit away from hitting the target!
Although he couldn't see the enemy's figure at all, nor hear any suspicious movements, he knew that there was definitely someone behind him!
Just then, the Knight Captain also discovered that the evil dragon that had crashed to the ground earlier had suddenly vanished into thin air.
The ground beneath his feet was shaking, and the air around him was rapidly disturbing. All signs indicated that a colossal creature was moving nearby.
But the Knight Captain simply couldn't see it! Even mobilizing all his senses, and even using magic to enhance them, he still couldn't find that evil dragon.
“Mental Out…”
Knowing that his perception had been completely obscured, the Knight Captain simply gave up thinking, followed his previous intuition, and swung his fist again.
This punch carried a dull roar, actually breaking the sound barrier directly—the Knight Captain was attempting to violently destroy the “illusion” covering him.
Although he rarely dealt with Espers, this type of magician enemy was not the first he had encountered. The Knight Captain had extensive experience in dealing with the current predicament.
—Just eliminate the caster himself.
Boom!
A low collision sound echoed. There was still no one in front of him, but this time there was a tangible feeling of hitting a target.
Moreover…
A colossal force transmitted through his fist, causing the Knight Captain to involuntarily retreat several steps before he could neutralize the immense impact surging towards him.
At the same time, the Knight Captain also knew what he had hit.
This power, which could only be described as “brutal,” he had only seen once in his limited life—the magic mercenary William Orwell.
Aside from that man, it was hard to imagine any other carbon-based life form capable of erupting with such terrifying power—even Kanzaki Kaori, who was also a Saint, her strength could hardly be described as “berserk.”
Undoubtedly, only that evil dragon, which should not exist in this world, possessed such power.
—As expected, it's still a beast. Is its true strength all demonstrated in its power and close-quarters combat?
The Knight Captain was not afraid. He immediately regrouped and actively charged towards the invisible evil dragon!
Whether it was a misunderstanding or not no longer mattered. What needed to be done now was to defeat the enemy and crusade against the evil dragon!
