Evolving Silver Dragon

Chapter 432: 450 Close Combat_1
This self-destructive Middle Eastern tactic has its origins in the hospitality of a certain Storm Titan.

Originally, this method was powerful, but it still fell short against Tiamat, especially with the limited strength of the Silver Dragon clone.

However, Otto added a lot of special ingredients, such as the divine power he’d obtained by devouring a certain Spider Goddess avatar, which was almost completely infused into it.

If there weren’t these equal-grade beings, the outcome might not have been so smooth.

But for Otto, divine power is extremely rare, as he cannot produce it himself, so it decreases as he uses it.

Although Otto went all-in this time, luckily, he used it in the right place and didn’t waste any of it.

With this thought, Otto nodded and continuously channeled energy into various parts of his body.

Having swallowed a volcano’s core before, Otto’s energy reserves were vastly improved.

Running out of fuel halfway was seldom an issue for him anymore.

The fireballs not only had a unique attack method, but they also seemed to have a certain inhibitory effect on wound recovery, so Otto’s healing was unexpectedly slow at this time.

As Otto gasped for breath and recovered his injuries, he cautiously monitored Tiamat’s situation.

He wasn’t one of those fools who get arrogant after gaining a small advantage. After he glimpsed Tiamat’s figure through the smoke, the terrifying current flooded into his already-scaled forepaw.

Before long, a thick lightning spear had taken shape.

Taking a deep breath, Otto firmly held the lightning spear in his forepaw.

After some brief practice to get a feel for the weapon, Otto aimed in Tiamat’s direction and hurled the lightning spear with all his might.

“Whiz!”

The thick lightning spear tore through the air, emitting a piercing sound. Some of the fierce currents that couldn’t catch up left a unique little tail behind the spear.

“Bang!”

The sound seemed as though the spear had hit something.

“Roar!”

Tiamat’s enraged roar followed.

Otto’s aim had always been good; from the feedback, it seemed he’d hit Tiamat directly.

Otto wouldn’t be frightened by a mere roar. Since the first one hit, he wouldn’t waste any more time.

Without hesitation, one lightning spear after another appeared in Otto’s claws, being forcefully sent into Tiamat’s body.

Otto also mixed in some ice spears and corrosive spears.

As for flame spears, forget it. Tiamat currently occupied the body of a Red Dragon, with its natural immunity to flames, inherited perfectly.

Tiamat hadn’t fully recovered from the Silver Dragon’s self-destruction before she was again pierced by numerous spears like a hedgehog.

This enraged her instantly.

“Enough!”

Along with Tiamat’s angry voice, she herself burst out of the explosion’s smokescreen and charged directly at Otto without any hesitation.

At this moment, Tiamat looked no stronger than Otto; her beautiful crimson scales were charred black.

Many of the scales had vanished, revealing the ghastly flesh beneath, and the remaining scales were flipped outward, giving a painfully grotesque appearance.

Her body was pierced by ice shards and marked by electrocution burns and corrosive acid injuries.

Perhaps Tiamat now felt the shame Bahamut had experienced coming up against Otto.

Seemingly clouded by anger, Tiamat appeared to want to engage Otto in close-quarters combat.

However, this was exactly what Otto wanted.

No matter the situation, hand-to-hand combat had always been Otto’s forte. Even if his opponent was Tiamat, he didn’t think he had anything to fear.

Moreover, this was just an incarnation of a borrowed body in advent.

“Boom!”

With a loud noise, Otto, who’d already reverted to his original form, fiercely collided with Tiamat.

Before the collision, both sides were already heavily injured.

The shockwaves from the forceful collision not only caused the surrounding space to tremble, but the newly-healed or scabbed injuries on both sides were also cracked open again.

But at this moment, the two in close combat seemed to ignore everything else.

Under such circumstances, they could hardly feel any pain.

After colliding, the two didn’t retreat. Instead, they wrestled fiercely and relentlessly.

At this point, their movements were devoid of grace; they both seemed like enraged, ferocious beasts.

As a result, new injuries piled upon old ones!

Scarlet and dark green dragon’s blood spilled from the sky. Under normal circumstances, this would all be precious resources, especially since Tiamat’s will was housed in one of the red dragons.

But if Otto’s blood was mixed in, the situation would be entirely different.

You should know that, in many cases, his blood would better be called a deadly poison!

The dark green blood falling along with Tiamat’s came from Otto.

Once leaving his body, the highly toxic blood started to boil uncontrollably, with its powerful venom corroding everything it touched.

Be it sand or Tiamat’s flesh and blood.

While grappling with Otto, Tiamat inevitably smeared herself with much of his blood.

She hadn’t thought much of it at first, so the poisonous blood freely flowed, boiled, and corroded everything it touched.

By now, Tiamat’s body hardly had any intact scales left, and her defenses had been severely weakened.

So when Otto’s poisonous blood fully boiled, it easily corroded her surface flesh.

By the time Tiamat realized what had happened, her body had been scarred with countless grotesque blood pits.

A few wounds were even so severe that her whitened bones could be seen within.

Tiamat finally realized that close combat was not in her favor. Besides the weird dragon blood, Otto’s sharp claws, and his incredible physical strength, everything exceeded her expectations.
