Chapter 169: Primordial Serpent, the Battle That Ended in an Instant ( )

Vast magic power erupted from Dimitrié.

Guided by this magic power, the nine familiars behind him suddenly intertwined, their forms began to change, turning into a giant tree rising from the ground.

However, unlike conventional trees, the roots of this giant tree rooted in the earth were wriggling snake tails, the trunk was a twisting snake body, and the huge branches were nine-headed snakes.

The nine fused snake familiars were restless, the snake roots and snake branches spreading out, covering the entire camp and forming a ~Snake Barrier.

“Is this the legendary familiar fusion?”

Not far away, Liana, who was also trapped by the Snake Barrier, showed a look of amazement on her face.

Long ago, she had heard of Dimitrié’s special ability.

Fusing his own familiars to gain power several times greater than the original.

A long time ago, Dimitrié relied on this ability to win against the strong while being weak, consecutively defeating and devouring two Elder-level vampires.

But in the rumors she had heard, Dimitrié had fused at most three familiars in those two battles.

But even so, the fused familiar was still enough to rival a Progenitor-level familiar.

Now that all nine familiars were fused, the power it possessed could be imagined.

Even though the Primordial Serpent was hundreds of meters away from Liana at this moment, she still felt a terrifying sense of oppression.

“Is it really okay?”

Liana looked somewhat worriedly at Lin Que, who was standing in front of the Primordial Serpent, confronting Dimitrié.

Although Lin Que had displayed unheard-of combat power in the previous battle.

But at this very moment, the Primordial Serpent formed by the fusion of Dimitrié’s nine familiars was also an existence beyond ordinary imagination.

Even though she had confidence in Lin Que, Liana couldn't help but feel a little worried.

“Don't worry, Miss Liana, there won't be any problems.”

Seeming to hear Liana’s muttering, Akatsuki Nagisa, who was standing with Aurora, swallowed the dorayaki in her mouth and replied calmly.

“If Brother Lin Que gets serious, this level of familiar won't survive for even a second.”

Boom—!

Perhaps to prove that Akatsuki Nagisa’s guess was correct, a terrifying magic power suddenly erupted from Lin Que’s body.

No... even if she used the word terrifying to describe it, Liana still felt it was far from enough; the quality and quantity of this magic power were far beyond Liana’s descriptive range.

If the magic power possessed by the Primordial Serpent after fusing nine familiars were compared to a drop of water, then the magic power Lin Que was radiating at this moment was a vast ocean.

Liana did not doubt that the moment Lin Que erupted with this magic power, any powerhouse still on this planet would clearly feel this terrifying magic power.

Boom—! Boom—! Boom—!

Under the pressure of Lin Que’s indescribable magic power, the Primordial Serpent, which was eager to attack a second ago, was instantly pressed to the ground.

The huge trunk it was once proud of now became the place the Primordial Serpent hated most.

The snake heads representing the branches and the snake body representing the trunk were smashed into the ground one after another according to their height, creating craters.

Accompanied by painful roars, wounds began to appear on the Primordial Serpent one after another, turning it into a blood snake.

“Is this all there is?”

Lin Que, who was still standing in place, withdrew his gaze and looked calmly at Dimitrié, who had been pressed to the ground by magic power not far away.

“The power you went to such great lengths to let me see doesn't seem to be anything special.”

“Cough... this is truly astonishing.”

Although Lin Que intentionally held back, Dimitrié, whose bones were still crushed by this magic power, raised his head and looked at Lin Que in front.

“How did you do it? Even if you devoured all the vampires in the world, your magic power couldn't reach this level.”

“So you were only concerned about such a small problem.”

Lin Que didn't hide it and told Dimitrié the answer directly.

“The reason is very simple. I have a lot of [Inherent Accumulated Time], so my magic power naturally went up.”

“How is that possible? Are you joking!”

Even after being instantly killed by Lin Que’s terrifying magic power, Dimitrié, whose mentality remained stable, showed a look of shock for the first time.

The so-called Inherent Accumulated Time refers to the total time an individual has experienced since birth; in other words, it is the personal history accumulated from a magical perspective.

“Just by relying on [Inherent Accumulated Time] to obtain this level of magic power, how long have you lived!”

“Why don't you take a guess?”

Lin Que smiled, walked in front of Dimitrié’s body, and a playful look appeared on his face.

“If you guess right, I might be in a good mood and spare your life.”

Dimitrié shook his head: “I guess you are not in a good mood right now.”

“Congratulations, you guessed right.”

Lin Que snapped his fingers: “As a reward, I’ll give you one minute to say your last words.”

“Last words? There’s no need for such things.”

The powerful healing brought by the vampire constitution activated, and Dimitrié, who had initially recovered, turned over and lay sprawled on the ground, a smile appearing on his face.

“I didn't expect to encounter a monster like you. No wonder the Void Witch showed that expression. I was really tricked by her this time.”

“Natsuki? I see. So that’s where she learned about me. I was wondering why you suddenly appeared here.”

A look of contemplation appeared on Lin Que’s face: “By the way, if I slaughter you now, will she not be able to receive her reward?”

“If the employer dies before issuing the reward, naturally she won't receive it.”

Although he was about to face death, Dimitrié did not have the slightest panic and replied very calmly.

“If you have any needs, you can go to the port and take my ship.”

“Although it’s not all my assets, it’s more than enough to pay for a commission.”

“Don't worry, I would have taken it even without you saying so.”

The shadow under Lin Que’s feet suddenly spread, instantly swallowing Dimitrié and the Primordial Serpent that was spread all around.

“One minute is up, time to send you on your way.”
