Chapter 163 - Chapter 318: Zombie Constantine is Dead? How?

Leon stared blankly at that power, the light reflected in his slightly trembling pupils.

In previous training sessions, Rossweise had never once condensed a Primordial Energy of such high purity.

'Looks like the wife is really going all out this time.'

The storm of Primordial Energy lightly rustled her silver hair, and those upturned dragon eyes were unwavering.

"I'm going in," As her words fell, the queen turned into a streak of silver shadow and rapidly closed in on Constantine.

And that monster, who just moments ago didn't understand what fear meant, for the first time felt fear when faced with that terrifying, pure power.

Primordial Energy was a mysterious power passed down from the ancestors of the dragon race, and it had a suppressive effect on dragons at the bloodline level.

Even if the opponent only retained a dragon-like head, the suppression effect was still evident.

Rossweise's figure flashed. Before Constantine could react, she suddenly leapt up and unleashed the purest Primordial Energy in her hand.

The light instantly swallowed Constantine.

The external display wasn't as flashy or exaggerated as the elemental magic from earlier, but everyone present was deeply shaken by this power.

Even Rossweise herself found it hard to believe.

"The power of the Primordial... is truly strong."

Not long after, the light gradually faded.

But Constantine was nowhere to be seen.

Rossweise frowned, "How can this be..."

Leon and Isa ran over, "Did it work?"

"He's turned to ash. It should've worked, right?", Isa said.

But Rossweise shook her head, "It's strange... My attack clearly hit him just now, but it—"

BOOM!

BOOM!

Suddenly, heavy and oppressive footsteps came from the side.

The three followed the sound and looked.

They saw that chaotic monster standing there.

Even though Rossweise's attack had blasted away half of his body, he still had no intention of stopping.

Isa looked at the bloody, broken body of the monster, "How did he withstand the attack from the Primordial Energy...?"

"No, he didn't withstand it."

Leon said, "He... just now... escaped."

"Escaped? At that close of a range? Even Little Rose, a silver dragon specialized in speed, couldn't have escaped. With that bulky body of his, how did he teleport from here to there in an instant?"

Leon slowly exhaled, then... laughed out loud.

Rossweise and her sister were stunned.

Wha-what's this?

Did the fight make him stupid?

That final blow that should've ended the crisis didn't achieve the expected result. What's he laughing about?

"Leon, did you... think of something?", Rossweise panted. At this moment, her body was extremely weak. Just now, the Primordial Energy had consumed a massive amount of her magic.

"It's okay, wife. We've already won."

"What did you say...?"

"I said, we've already won."

Not that sentence, idiot. The two words 'we've won'.

"Brother-in-law, what are you planning?", Isa asked.

Leon slowly raised his right hand.

"It's not what I'm planning, it's what I've already done."

Isa didn't understand.

But Rossweise, after a brief thought, understood what Leon meant.

"So that's how it is...", she softly murmured, and a relieved smile appeared on her lips.

Constantine dragged that broken body and charged toward Leon again.

And this time, Leon's response was, a single snap of the fingers.

Snap!

A spark of electricity flickered at his fingertip.

At the same time, the protective heart dragon scale of Bly also erupted with a flash of blue light.

The light grew increasingly dazzling, and in the next second—

BOOM!!

Constantine's body was instantly engulfed in the explosion triggered by the protective dragon scale.

The organs and limbs of the various dangerous species were also blasted to pieces.

Lightning intertwined, light and shadows swirled, and dust spread out.

"Damn... Little Rose, if your husband had this kind of skill, why didn't he bring it out earlier? We suffered so much."

Rossweise shook her head and smiled wryly, "He only realized it was possible after seeing Bly's protective dragon scale."

"Eh... I still don't get it."

"I'll slowly explain it to you later."

Turns out, even though he knew the empire would recover the protective dragon scales back then, he didn't choose to destroy Bly's and the others' scales, just for this surprise move...

Rossweise looked a bit proudly at the man standing before the flames. He shook off the residual lightning from his right hand, walked forward, and stepped on Constantine's head a second time.

"I told you, Old Constantine. Winning the resurrection round means nothing, only the championship really counts."

Leon kicked Constantine's head away, letting that tattered "big ball" roll a few times on the ground.

He himself staggered a few steps back, appearing somewhat fatigued.

Honestly, this fight just now could easily rank first in General Leon's Top Ten Classic Battles.

Why first? Because so far, there hasn't been another nine battles that gave him such pressure.

Though Constantine wasn't an especially powerful dragon king (at least not to Leon), thinking back, both of their fights held quite a bit of significance.

Leon looked at that decayed skull and snorted coldly.

"This time, you can finally rest in peace, Old Constantine."

What defeats stat monsters is fusion monsters;

Then, what defeats fusion monsters, can only be mechanic monsters.

If he hadn't held back earlier to deal with the Empire, this fight might not have ended so easily.

After a brief breather, urgent footsteps sounded behind him.

Leon turned around, it was Rossweise and Isa.

The two sisters ran over and glanced at Constantine's head.

"Is it done?", Isa asked.

"Yeah," Leon nodded.

"You're not hurt, are you?", Rossweise asked while quickly checking his arms and shoulders.

Leon smiled, gently pressed her wrist down, then held her cold little hand, using the right amount of force to tell her he was fine.

"Don't worry, I'm not hurt," Leon said.

The queen gave a slight nod, and under the cover of night, the blush on her face spread freely.

Isa also let out a sigh of relief, patted the dust off her skirt, then crossed her arms and tilted her head at her sister and brother-in-law.

"You two, show off your love later. Right now, can someone explain to me why that protective dragon scale suddenly turned into a timed bomb?"

As a veteran dragon king, Isa was very familiar with the properties of protective dragon scales.

They were the "valves" of a dragon's power and also a kind of "safety device" to prevent dragons from harming themselves during power loss of control.

In other words, under certain conditions, the protective dragon scale could indeed become a super bomb, detonating not only the power accumulated over a hundred years but also the dragon's inherent magic.

In dragon history, there were well-known battles where desperate dragon kings self-detonated their scales to perish together with their foes.

But while dragon scales could be used as bombs, the key point was, they could only be detonated by their owners.

If any dragon could detonate others' dragon scales, there'd be no need for fighting. They'd just study how to enrage each other.

So Leon snapping his fingers and blowing up Constantine's dragon scale, this part truly puzzled Isa.

Seeing how strongly her big sister wanted to know, the married couple exchanged a glance and immediately turned on their team voice chat.

Rossweise: 'We can't tell the truth. My sister's smart. The moment you mention the Empire, she'll start suspecting you.'

Leon: 'Got it. Give me a few minutes to come up with a good excuse.'

Rossweise: 'A few minutes? Where am I supposed to get you those few minutes?'

Leon: 'No choice, wifey. You don't want your husband's human identity exposed, right?'

Rossweise: 'Hey, you! ...Bastard, hurry and think. I'll stall for you.'

Leon: 'OK'

The couple let go of their interlocked hands. Rossweise walked over to Isa, pursed her lips, then opened her mouth and said, "Actually... that wasn't a timed bomb or anything."
