"Impossible, that is absolutely impossible!"
Landon was under tremendous pressure at that moment, muttering to himself in his heart.
He could see that the Absolute Defense law had cracked, and his entire body was about to split open as well.
"Is that Envy's Great Sin Beas, the Leviathan?
Landon's nine gigantic snake heads looked in different directions. The Nine-headed Heaven-devouring Python's heads shared the same line of sight and thought. At that moment, one of his heads looked to the front. There was a monster with barbs growing all over its back. That monster had a tail that looked like an anchor. Its long tail was covered with shadows and locked onto his body. A giant black vortex appeared under his body. It seemed like it was going to devour him.
After being locked onto by the long shadow tail, Landon felt like his strength was weakened, from diamond to the platinum tier.
As an elder, Landon often dealt with magical beasts, so he was very familiar with them. It was a very special magical beast that lived in the deep sea and mastered two types of magic—dark and water. It had a special ability called Forced Equality. Ordinary creatures could only master the rules after they reached diamond-tier. However, some mythical creatures with powerful bloodlines could also master similar rules at platinum-tier, for example, the Absolute Reflex of the angel race. Leviathan's Forced Equality could also be considered a type of rule.
No matter how powerful the Leviathan's enemy was, their ability would be pulled to a certain level. Of course, the effect of forced equality would be weakened for enemies that were much stronger than Leviathan. However, not only one submarine had transformed into Leviathan.
Among the hundreds of submarines, more than ten monsters had transformed into Leviathan. More than ten Leviathan released the forced equality simultaneously, which was enough to weaken Landon's strength from diamond to platinum-tier.
Landon would not have had such a difficult fight if it were just that. Leviathan was considered weak among the deep-sea behemoths that the submarine had transformed into. There was also a magical beast that was similar to an octopus. Landon thought that was more powerful; its suction cup had attached itself to the light barrier formed by the Absolute Defense, causing the light barrier to shatter. The bubbles that shot out from its mouth, which was filled with fangs, collided with the Absolute Defense's light barrier, producing destructive ripples.
'D*mn it, how on earth were those magical beasts created?'
Landon's heart was filled with fear. He was afraid of the power displayed by those submarines and the fact that humans could create submarines that could transform into monsters.
The elves created the ability to transform into magical beasts. The archers of the human kingdoms also had similar capabilities. Those were all learned from the elves. In other words, humans had always been behind the elves. However, at that moment, humans had developed a method to transform objects into magical beasts. That was something that even the elves did not know. The fact that humans had unknowingly developed the elves' secret skills to a higher level made him feel fear.
"His Majesty's choice to attack the human kingdom was the right choice. I would not have realized that the humans had already achieved such a major breakthrough in our secret technique if not for this attack! After I destroy those humans, I will interrogate them properly. How exactly does that technique work?"
After making up his mind, one of Landon's nine gigantic snake heads spat out flames. The firestorm that it spat out blocked a Leviathan swimming over, and while the other green snake heads spat out a firestorm, it wrapped itself around its body and retreated some distance away.
"Activate the Nine-headed Heaven-devouring Python's strongest ability! Nine-headed Fusion, the Colossus that can devour the world!"
Landon's nine gigantic snake heads became illusory and intertwined in midair, turning into a snake head that was formed purely from pitch-black light. The illusory snake head did not seem to exist in that world, yet it seemed to contain supreme majesty. The moment the snake head appeared, the clouds in the sky changed as well. The clouds gathered together and turned into a ball that resembled the shape of a snake head.
At that moment, the Nine-headed Heaven-devouring Python that Landon had transformed into merged with the gigantic clouds above his head, turning into a body that was hundreds of times larger. Then it suddenly fell and devoured the hundreds of platinum-tier deep-sea magical beasts on the ground. The violent impact left a deep pit that stretched for thousands of meters on the ground. Everything in the deep pit was destroyed. The hundreds of deep-sea submarines were thrown back to their original state, becoming dilapidated.
The airwaves also swallowed the houses around the deep pit. They were peeled off layer by layer. The ground and the sea tide that penetrated the ground were sliced off by a few meters. With just one stroke, one-third of the fortress city had disappeared.
The bodies of several sea folks nearby evaporated, and they were resurrected in some places further away. The humans and elves in the fortress city were shocked, speechless by that world-destroying scene.
"That is Elder Landon's true strength. He's too strong, " an elf muttered to himself.
The Nine-headed Heaven-devouring Python that Landon had transformed into had an innate talent, which was to merge nine heads into one. It could devour the world. For a short time, Landon would not be able to use his transformation. However, the effect was obvious.
"Under that move, all the strange weapons that had transformed into mythical creatures are eliminated. Next would be the humans. Without the protection of those strange weapons, those humans and sea folks would not be able to withstand a single blow from me."
As the dust dispersed, Landon's elf-like body walked forward. His transparent wings flapped gently, and his old face was filled with pride.
In front of the Nine-headed Heaven-devouring Python's most powerful magic, the diamond-tier magic that could devour the world, even a diamond-tier elite could fall, let alone the platinum-tier magical beast that was transformed from a submarine.
When he saw the submarine in front of him mixed with the flesh of the magical beast and the mechanical remains, his expression became more proud. He walked toward Watson."Brat, it's time for you to surrender. If you surrender voluntarily, I can still let you live. If you don't surrender—"
"If I don't want to surrender, what can you do about it?" Watson stood on the rough water surface with his hands behind his back. The smile on his face was still there, but he was calculating in his heart.
After his battle with Landon, he had seen the upper limit of the Deep-sea Behemoth Submarine. It had surpassed the platinum-tier elites, and its power could pose a threat to the diamond-tier elites. However, it was not enough to kill diamond-tier elites. It had to be improved.
"If you don't surrender, then there will only be one outcome, and that is death." Landon snorted coldly and extended his right hand to Watson. His arm grew in midair, growing scales and turning into a dragon's arm. It extended for several meters.
Since he had released the Nine-headed Heaven-devouring Python's ability, he could not transform into Nine-headed Heaven-devouring Python at that moment. However, that did not affect his transformation into other magical beasts. So, he transformed into a platinum-tier dragon that he had signed a contract with a few years ago.
After seeing the powerful move he had released, Watson had a calm expression on his face. He was definitely faking it.
Landon wanted to capture Watson and torture him before all the humans and sea folks. He wanted to let them understand how powerful the Elven race was. He had lost the will to resist.
The huge dragon claw reached out toward Watson, who had lost the protection of the powerful submarine. He was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. The human ministers standing around Watson were all in a daze as if they were scared silly when they saw the huge dragon was about to touch Watson.
Bang!
Watson raised his tender right hand and collided with Landon's dragon arm with a muffled sound. Watson's arm, which was obviously much smaller, did not move at all. Instead, Landon's dragon arm began to tremble; it seemed to have endured an unbearable force.
"What's going on?" Landon's expression changed as he tried to pull his arm back. However, Watson's hand that was holding onto his arm did not move at all, making it impossible for him to pull it back.
He thought Watson, who was only a teenager, did not seem to have much strength after losing the protection of the submarine. He would be able to deal with him easily. In the end, he realized that he was wrong.
"Elder Elven, you seem to have misunderstood something. You think that I'm standing here because I rely on the deep-sea Behemoth Submarine? Then you are gravely mistaken. The deep-sea submarine is just a toy that I created."
The smile on Watson's face became brighter. He grabbed Landon's dragon claw and gently flipped his palm.
Whoosh!
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Landon, who had been showing off and destroying half of the fortress city with a single strike, flipped the moment Watson touched his claw. His head and feet were forcefully thrown to the ground, a deep pit was formed on the ground, and his eyes were in the shape of a vortex as he fainted.
Watson had only used one move, and Landon had fallen.
