Chapter 202: Chapter202-The Entire City Trembles


    ?


    Over the imperial capital of Kyrik, a black tower loomed in the sky, emanating a cold, merciless aura.


    It was like the chill of winter, piercing and biting, with white snowflakes frozen in the air, drifting down continuously.


    "Interesting, it''s been a long time since I''ve seen such a reckless junior," Taylor said with a cold smile as he stood under the shadow of the Dark Tower, watching Leslie charge toward him.


    The black tattoos on his aged face squirmed, gathering at his feet and transforming into a thick, inky black swamp. Then, black spikes shot upward, colliding with the frigid current emanating from the Dark Tower, producing a resounding clash.


    Even though Taylor could see that the Dark Tower was extraordinary and mysterious, as a grandmaster-tier mage, he wielded the power of the world itself.


    He transformed the environment into a swamp, matching the power of the Dark Tower.


    With each collision, his suppressed aura was gradually recovering.


    "Ice Dragon''s Wrath!"


    At that moment, Leslie''s cold, low voice suddenly rang out.


    The turbulent mana and mind power surged from her, pouring into the ice runes.


    Behind her, a massive ice dragon, formed entirely of frosty energy, slowly emerged.


    This ice dragon, tens of meters tall like a towering structure, gleamed with sharp triangular scales that reflected the biting cold. Its imposing and ruthless gaze conveyed its


    overwhelming might.


    As Leslie charged at Taylor like a meteor, the dragon opened its fearsome maw and unleashed a blast of frigid blue dragon breath.


    Wherever the breath reached, the temperature plummeted, and everything froze over in a flurry of snow and ice.


    The dragon''s breath contained the power of Order, and even Taylor, a grandmaster-tier mage, found his body encased in thick ice, freezing him into a statue and completely halting his movements.


    However, the frozen layer cracked almost immediately, the fissures resembling exploded fish scales, ready to shatter at any moment.


    But in that brief instant of freezing, Leslie had already closed the distance.


    Surrounded by the blazing magic flames born from burning her mana core, Leslie''s aura became even more volatile and fierce.


    Boom! Boom! Boom!


    Leslie had turned into a human weapon, unleashing a relentless barrage of magical attacks that pounded against the ice encasing Taylor.


    Empowered by the Order of Ice, each attack landed with deafening force.


    "Ugh!"


    Taylor groaned in pain, blood spurting from his mouth.


    The blood was ice-cold, steaming with frost, and even had tiny ice crystals forming within it.


    After being frozen by the Order of Ice, Taylor''s defenses were at their weakest.


    He couldn''t cast any spells to block Leslie''s ferocious assault, and he was forced to endure the full brunt of her terrifying attacks.


    "Damn it!"No?v(el)B\\jnn


    Now, this grandmaster-tier mage was clearly going all out, shattering the very void, yet he couldn''t take down Leslie. In fact, his injuries were growing more severe!


    The clash between these two had shaken the entire city.


    Everyone had stopped what they were doing, staring at the distant battle in awe.


    Though they didn''t know why the grandmaster-tier mage was fighting Leslie, the outcome of


    their battle would undoubtedly alter the course of history.


    As the first queen of Azure Kingdom, Leslie''s fall or survival would decide the fate of the kingdom-whether it would be torn apart by other hungry nations or continue to stand


    strong.


    And if she defeated a grandmaster-tier mage, it would be a historic first on the continent!


    Boom! Boom! Boom!


    Their battle continued for only a short while longer. After exchanging hundreds of blows in quick succession, a deafening crash echoed across the sky.


    Suddenly, a figure was thrown back, battered and bloodied by the aftermath of the clash.


    The onlookers held their breath, staring intently at the scene. Was Leslie finally overwhelmed?


    As this thought crossed their minds, they saw the figure arc through the air before crashing into the palace walls with immense force, shattering the wall into rubble and sending dust


    flying.


    Then, everyone saw Taylor lying in the massive crater, his body drenched in blood, covered in claw marks, with crimson blood pooling around him.


    Taylor, the grandmaster-tier mage, had been severely injured and thrown from the


    battlefield!


    Countless onlookers widened their eyes in shock, unable to close their gaping mouths.


    At that moment, a chilling gleam cut through the air-a spear thrown by Leslie, tearing


    through the sky with the sound of splitting fabric.


    It aimed directly at Taylor''s forehead, carrying the final blow of the fight.


    Taylor, still in excruciating pain, felt his body unresponsive.


    Leslie''s relentless attacks, along with the Dark Tower and kitsune, had been more than he


    could handle.


    Now, this spear was imbued with lethal intent, and in his current state, he had no way to


    survive a final strike infused with Order.


    In desperation, Taylor crushed a ring on his finger, causing the space behind him to warp and


    swallow him whole.


    Almost at the same moment he vanished, Leslie''s spear, its energy spent, fell from the sky, its glow fading as it tumbled to the ground.
