Chapter 63: Terrifying Black Fog

The black fog continued spreading, and the initial thousands of soldiers were only the first of its victims.

This grayish-black fog was akin to a vicious virus. After infecting their initial host, they would then spread to their surrounding soldiers without any pause.

In an instant, tens of thousands of soldiers had become the puppets of the black fog!

Remember, there were only around 100 thousand soldiers in the army!

Countless soldiers watched as the terrifying black fog advanced towards them. However, unless they held their breath, they had no way of preventing themselves from sucking in the fog.

The only thing that awaited them was death!

However, that was not all that made the black fog a terrifying threat. Upon making contact with the soldiers that had died, the black fog would animate the deceased bodies, and make them tremble violently.

“What is going on!?”

“Someone, tell us what is going on!”

“Hurry up and run! Stay away from the black fog!”

“They can devour a person’s soul!”

Countless mournful wails sounded within the army.

Felix was aware of the atrocity that Gallio had committed. However, in the face of the threat that Max had posed, nothing else mattered.

“Gallio, I have to say, you really are a savage!”

Felix snorted coldly.

“Yes, yes, I hate you as much as you hate me, Felix.”

“Your hypocritical integrity makes me feel disgusted!”

Gallio sneered. At this moment, the effects of the potion that had turned Gallio into a hairy beast had worn off. His body had returned to his original skinny appearance.

Even so, however, Gallio’s back was covered with countless fine black fog threads that made up a spiderweb-like pattern.

If one were to observe carefully, they would notice that all those threads were connected to the soldiers that had been infected by the black fog.

Moreover, so long as the threads were in contact with those soldiers, the soldiers would not fear pain or death. They would mindlessly do as Gallio commanded, at in this moment, it was to restrict Max’s movement!

With the situation being as it was, this was the best option that Gallio could come up with to accomplish his task!

Felix did not blame Gallio. After all, in order to land his strongest attack on Max, he needed all the help he could get.

The Fiery Fist, which contained all of his strength, was terrifyingly powerful.

However, compared to Calsus’ Divine Parting, it was not even half as strong.

He was certain that it lacked the power to harm the unusually impervious Red Dragon Hatchling.

If he wanted to kill the other party, he would need to gamble with his own life.

A dark light flashed in Felix’s eyes.

He gritted his teeth as blood flowed out of his mouth.

The magic power in his body had been strengthened several times!

However, this power had come at the expense of his own lifeforce!

Every second that passed would shave off Felix’s lifespan!

Nevertheless, at this hefty price, Felix had finally obtained the strength that he desired!

Within a three kilometer radius, the temperature suddenly rose!

In the air, countless rings of fire suddenly appeared. Then, like a domain, they enveloped the entire desert.

The rings of fire existed within their own isolated dimension. Moreover, the temperature of the isolated dimension had already reached soaring heights.

Although the soldiers who had been infected by the black fog were unaffected by the searing heat, Gallio, the master of the possessed soldiers was drenched in sweat.

He took a glance at Felix. However, upon noticing what he had done, a glint of shock flashed across his eyes.

‘This guy is really a madman!’

‘He’s burning his own life force to amplify his magic power.’

‘Does he intend of burning himself together with the Dragon Hatchling?!’

‘Even if he’s capable of instantly killing the Dragon Hatchling, by the time he’s done, he probably won’t live for much longer.’

‘Is this what he wants?’

‘Well, whatever, whether he lives or dies is of no consequence to me.’

‘If Felix dies here, then it would be for the best. After all, I would be able to claim all the fruits of victory for myself!’

‘Even if those fruits have come at a great cost…’

…

Max had already noticed Felix who was accumulating mana, as well as the countless shrieking undead soldiers who were charging in a suicidal manner towards himself.

Max was certain that he would come out relatively unharmed against these undead soldiers, however, doing so would greatly restrict his movement!

‘Should I use the Invincible Golden Body again?’

The morale of the human army was already at an all time low. So long as he could withstand Felix and Gallio’s attacks, he was certain that he could finally draw the curtains on this battle.

However, his gut was warning him of an even greater danger hiding amongst the army. It was telling him to not use his Invincible Golden Body+ at any cost, otherwise, his life would be in great peril.

Max looked around the desert, but he could not discern the source of this great threat.

Meanwhile, Mia, who was watching all of this in the sky, could feel her heart in her mouth.

She had never seen Tahir use magic before, and thus, once she saw how powerful Felix’s flaming ring magic was, it shocked her greatly.

Faced against such immense power, could her brother, who had nowhere to hide, really survive?

‘Yes!’

‘Definitely!’

‘Brother has already withstood the human contraption and the knight’s light attack! No matter how powerful this fire spell was, I’m certain brother will definitely withstand it!’

In Mia’s heart, Max had already become a synonym for omnipotence.

She was extremely confident that her brother, Max, would be able to create a miracle once again.

At the same time, for some unknown reason, the area around the luxurious carriage was unaffected by the situation developing on the battlefield.

The soldiers around the carriage were completely unaffected by the black fog.

With the carriage as the center, an area of about a hundred meters was isolated from the black fog.

It was as if it had existed in a different dimension.

The soldiers around the carriage looked fearfully into the carriage.

Even the generals of the army were unaware of the individual within the carriage, let alone the soldiers who were only assigned to guard the carriage.

They were afraid of the black fog outside and the individual within the carriage.

After all, they were not sure whether the individual within the carriage was even a human. For all even sure if the person in the carriage was a human or some other existence.

…

Back on the battlefield, chaos ensued.

“Fiery fist! Omnidirectional Destruction!”

At this moment, Felix’s voice resounded throughout the battlefield!
