Chapter 532: Life In Danger

With the Fire Dragon in front, the lives of both of them were already in danger.

Klein gritted his teeth. He had already been infuriated by this troublesome fellow.

With a tier 10 weapon in hand, there was nothing to be afraid of.

Klein gripped the hilt tightly. The entire blade was actually affected by a water-type spell, instantly turning into a massive stream of water.

The stream of water seemed to have completely escaped the influence of gravity as it circled in the direction of the Fire Dragon.

The speed was so fast that it was impossible for one to catch a glimpse of it.

Like a huge wave that surged into the sky, it pounced on the Fire Dragon’s body.

Klein could even hear a loud scream.

Most of the flames on the Fire Dragon’s body had been extinguished.

Knowing that things weren’t good, the Fire Dragon began to flee into the depths of the lava, preparing to use the power of the lava to quickly recover.

At that moment, the water flow formed by the tier 10 weapon naturally didn’t plan on giving the Fire Dragon the chance.

The water flow that was splashed out instantly gathered together, once again chasing after the Fire Dragon that was about to flee.

James widened his eyes in surprise. He didn’t expect the legendary synthetic weapon to be so powerful!

It could raise the level of high-level magic that Klein possessed.

And at that moment, Klein had instantly comprehended a tier 9 spell. He could use the weapon in his hand as he wished!

“Klein, how… How did you comprehend a tier 9 spell?!”

At that moment, Klein had already focused all of his strength on his right hand.

Although the water current had already reached out, the hilt of the knife was still tightly gripped in his hand.

He frowned tightly, not daring to make any mistakes.

When the water current that blotted out the sky and covered the sun once again pounced on him, the Fire Dragon was no longer able to withstand this powerful water-type spell.

In the midst of its wailing, it was instantly extinguished.

The main body of the Fire Dragon vanished into thin air.

At this moment, James suddenly reacted.

So this so-called Fire Dragon was actually formed from a ball of fire, and didn’t have any physical body!

The Fire Dragon was completely extinguished. The gigantic monster beast that had been baring its fangs and brandishing its claws previously instantly vanished into thin air.

The water flow from the attack gathered together again and finally returned to the hilt of Klein’s sword.

It returned to the cold air and the eerie blade.

At this moment, Klein heaved a sigh of relief. With a clang, the hilt of the sword loosened its grip.

The entire weapon fell to the ground.

At this moment, half of Klein’s body felt numb.

Although he had already comprehended a tier 9 spell, the top-grade weapon that he had synthesized still contained immense energy. It wasn’t something that an ordinary person could use.

The strength that Klein had used in the two blows earlier was already physically and mentally exhausted. He couldn’t even stand properly.

James was taken aback as he hurriedly held onto Klein’s shoulder.

He asked, “Are you alright? Why do you look so pale?”

Klein sighed lightly. Saying that he was fine was like trying to make a fool of himself.

Not only did he feel weak all over, but his legs were weak as well. Even his head was buzzing.

Klein thought for a moment and said, “Let’s slow down for a moment. A direct weapon is indeed not something that an ordinary person can use. Using it once would probably require a huge amount of energy…”

James blinked. “…But you were clearly upgraded to a tier 9 spell just now?”

He was really curious. Upgrading a spell required the blessing of a special artifact or slow cultivation.

It was simply inconceivable that Klein could suddenly upgrade from tier 8 to tier 9.

Klein sat on a large rock beside him to rest, and then he voiced his guess.

“I synthesized a tier 10 weapon through a gemstone, and using this weapon many times has a great impact on the human body…”

After using it many times, the level of the magic that Klein grasped would increase according to the attributes of the weapon.

After using it a few times, the level of the magic would naturally increase.

However, this weapon was extremely dangerous. Klein could be considered to have narrowly escaped death, which was why he was so lucky.

James rolled his eyes and said, “You mean that it’s because you’ve used a tier 10 weapon multiple times that your strength is slowly accumulating in your body? If that’s the case, wouldn’t you be able to level up to a tier 10 spell after using a weapon multiple times?”

Klein rolled his eyes. He felt that James’ IQ seemed to have dropped like a precipice today.

“How is that possible? I’ve already cultivated to a certain level, and I’m about to break through the limit and cross tier 9 very soon. Using a weapon is just an opportunity to speed up my leveling up.”

“Furthermore, this kind of leveling up is like pulling out a seedling to help it grow. It allows strength to quickly gather in the body, which is also a great damage to the body.”

‘It seems like I’ll have to use this energy-absorbing weapon less in the future.’ Klein felt that he might be destroyed by this weapon one day…

After a short rest, Klein felt that his body’s strength had quickly recovered.

This time, his recovery speed was much faster than the previous times. In just a few minutes, he had returned to his original state.

He stood up from the stone and dusted off his clothes. He began to research what method could be used to get the two of them to leave this godforsaken place.

He discovered that there was indeed a very shallow human-shaped mark on the stone platform. It seemed that only an adult man’s body size and weight could quickly open the door.

“How about this? I’ll lie down on the platform first. When the door opens, you can leave. Then, you can think of a way to save me?”

James immediately refused. He couldn’t even do such a thing.

James felt that it was very disgraceful for abandoning his companion and escaping alone.

“Furthermore, even if I escape, there’s no one around here. Where can I find someone to replace you?!”

Klein reached out and touched his nose. He suddenly felt that there was something wrong with James today.

Forget it. Since that was the case, he could only do it himself.

He patted the stone bed. “Then come up and lie down. I’ve already taken care of the Fire Dragon. As long as you lie down and don’t move, there shouldn’t be too much of a threat. I’ll go out and think of a way to save you!”

James still believed in Klein, but in such a life-and-death situation, he was still hesitant.

He wasn’t afraid that Klein would never return. He just felt that even if Klein went out, he might not be able to find a good solution.

The only way now was to find someone to replace him.

Not to mention that the place was extremely desolate, there was no one there at all.

James raised his eyebrows and said, “Even if there was, it would only be an ordinary lifeform. I don’t think you would do anything to harm the innocent, right?”

If it was true that only by sacrificing one person could one leave this place, it was truly a hopeless situation.

Klein raised his eyebrows. “How do you know that there must be another person to replace me? Can’t I think of a way to get the best of both worlds?”

It seemed inconceivable that no one would be sacrificed and that everyone could leave this place.

However, James knew that Klein had always been extremely intelligent. Perhaps he could do something that others couldn’t, so he decided to trust Klein for once.
