Irreversible consequences?
Ronald was of course aware that the voice ca from the beast below.
But... were they not in the midst of battle?
Surely no one... no monster would think—that by uttering a few words, the enemy would obediently cease fighting!
Ronald did not even entertain the thought of hesitation.
In the mont the creature issued its warning, the magic power he extracted from the Rain Mist Divine Hamr rapidly gathered thunder and lightning in the air.
Boom, boom, boom—
Infinite thunder converged in the dark sky.
The world beneath the storm clouds was montarily bright as day.
The thunder Ronald summoned this ti was not as powerful as during the Springs Typhoon incident, after all, Costate had only hastily interfered with the weather. Even so, it was still enough to destroy any enemy with its formidable strength.
"Human, you will regret this!"
At this point, the beast on the ground seed to sense its impending doom.
It hurriedly threatened Ronald.
And it seed the dust giant was so anxious that it used too much force in its telepathic ssage, which even activated the "Guardian Angel" spell on Ronald involuntarily, passively shielding him from the ntal onslaught.
"Heh—"
Perceiving the creature’s state,
Ronald’s expression was cold, with his right hand raised at his chest, he violently swung it downward.
Boom—
In an instant,
A blinding flash pierced the heavens and the earth.
The accumulated thunder arrived on the ground before anyone could react, piercing through everything in its way in an instant.
Within it...
Naturally, included the skull of the dust giant.
"..."
As the brilliant light of the thunder that made everything lose its color gradually faded, Ronald looked down from the air, everything was crystal clear.
On the head of the dust giant,
The lightning that had just struck down had instantly pierced through it, and the flesh around the wound was starkly denatured, contrasting sharply with the surrounding healthy tissue.
"Huff—"
At this ti, a gust of air blew out from the head of the giant.
Seeing the scene below, Ronald, hovering high above, imdiately changed his expression.
—This creature was not yet dead.
Even with its head pierced by lightning, the dust giant was still able to breathe.
Given its imnse size, even its head being directly penetrated by lightning could not kill it imdiately!
Swoosh—
The next second, a powerful magic fluctuation radiated from around Ronald.
He activated the "Chariot of God," the strongest combat posture he currently possessed.
The Rain Mist Divine Hamr had not instantly killed the dust giant.
But the creature was already at the brink of death.
And with his strongest combat state, Ronald was confident in escorting it through this final journey.
"Human—"
As Ronald made his decision, he once again enveloped Saint Catherine’s sword with the "Power of the Sun." But just as he flew out a hundred ters, the voice of the dust giant rose again.
"I told you... you will regret this..."
From the mind’s voice of the other party, the weakness of the dust giant was very obvious, it even began to speak in a halting manner.
Yet even so,
The creature’s tone still carried a degree of arrogance:
"Your... actions will awaken... Il... Everything on the earth will beco... different because of... it."
At this mont, Ronald’s flight speed gradually decreased, then he stopped in midair.
He even voluntarily retracted the "God’s Chariot" from its combat stance.
— The reason was simple.
— This dust beast was dying.
Apparently, it realized there was no possibility of survival.
The dust beast gave up using its power to heal its wounds; instead, it paid the price of letting the head wound deteriorate further as it began to issue its final proclamation to Ronald.
"Roar—"
Suddenly, the dust beast lying on the ground let out a roar filled with reluctance.
Then, as if experiencing a final flare of light before death, it spoke to Ronald in very clear words:
"My brother will learn of my death!"
"He will awaken at the Peak of Ling Guang, the millennia of ice and snow will finally lt. When that ti cos, the entire world will face its end!"
"You ungrateful ants will also be destroyed!"
Boom—
After the roar full of anger, the dust beast’s head imdiately collapsed onto the ground.
Following a tremor that shook the earth.
The dust beast fell completely silent.
"It’s dead..."
Maintaining his position in the air, Ronald’s brow furrowed.
Although the dust beast had died before him, its final warning was of concern.
What does ’his brother will awaken’ an?
Could it be that these dust beasts have so kind of tradition of ’if you defeat the younger, the elder will co forth’?
"Sir, congratulations on your victory."
While Ronald’s brow was still furrowed, Costate descended from the sky above.
The maid, not having heard the dust beast’s last words, confird the enemy’s death and imdiately began to congratulate Ronald.
"I... may still have so matters to attend to."
Ronald replied to Costate.
However, he quickly shook his head to put the matter aside for now, as there were still things to deal with at the mont.
"Costate, I’ll search from the top down, and you search from the bottom up. This dust beast is not small; let’s hurry and fish out the ’Organic Encyclopedia.’"
The maid imdiately nodded in response:
"Sir, I understand."
After briefly communicating, the two quickly descended to the surroundings of the dust beast’s corpse.
Then, perhaps the most grueling task of this journey began.
— Searching for the "Organic Encyclopedia."
Although the dust beast had died, its magic power wouldn’t dissipate imdiately. And the "Organic Encyclopedia" hidden within it had beco silent with the death of its master.
A silent to mixed in such a pervasive magic environnt made searching by perception an absolute fantasy from the "Tales of the Arabian Nights!"
After all, this was about finding a crystal no bigger than the size of a palm on the body of a beast larger than a city!
Thus, from day to night.
And from night to day.
When the dust beast’s massive corpse began to emit a stench like a mountain, Ronald started to worry about the epidemic prevention work in the Yizi Forest, yet the search for the to was still incomplete.
— This thing was simply too big!
— It was essentially a needle in a haystack job!
Moreover, now they had to endure the exaggerated and terrifying stench coming from the dust beast’s corpse — this was a thod of torture!
...
In the end.
It was Il, a native of the land, who proved to be effective.
Because his soul was constrained, this ’vegetable’ returned obediently to Ronald’s side following the soul’s perception after the battle concluded.
After learning of the desperate situation Ronald and Costate were facing,
Il used his evolutionarily unique thods and finally found the last crystal of the "Organic Encyclopedia" near the tail of the dust beast’s corpse on the second night.
