Water Mage in the Flame Realm

Chapter 462 432: Giant Infant 2

"You say, history repeating? What do you mean?"

Catherine looked at Andrew, her brow furrowed, suddenly thinking of something, she instinctively lowered her voice, "You mean... Lidzmat?!"

She actually knew of Lidzmat's existence. And it seems she knows something about that ancient history.

Andrew didn't answer, just raised his head and lifted his gaze.

The sunlight was blocked, and a gigantic shadow was cast down.

Previously, Andrew had never seen what the opponent was like, but now he finally saw it: it was a volcanic dragon constituted by a series of continuous mountain ranges.

Thebes Mountain Range, it's not the dormant resting place of Lidzmat?

This mountain range itself is the sleeping Lidzmat!

At this moment, he is blocking the sky, coming with wings spread.

Suddenly he swooped down, quickly transforming and shrinking during the descent, finally landing not far in front of Andrew as a giant infant.

His voice was of a tender child, but his form and appearance were even more diminutive like an infant.

Yet this infant stood upright on two feet, standing over three meters tall, a literal "giant infant"!

An imposing pair of pointed horns graced his forehead, resembling more a pair of demon horns than dragon horns.

A devilish smile played on his face, as he ate an ice cream cone while laughing!

Andrew looked carefully, but realized that it was no ice cream, clearly a high-density condensed Water Element, where even a single droplet could disperse into endless rivers, lakes, and seas.

In the Flame Realm, water resources were extremely scarce, everyone wanted to know why?

The truth was that almost all the water in this world was taken by the giant infant before their eyes, then compressed into cones of ice cream!!

"What a joke..." Andrew murmured looking at such a Lidzmat.

The opponent's humanoid form wasn't surprising. When Liang broke into Divine Level, he could transform into human. Lidzmat's Tier was even higher, so if he wasn't humanoid, it would be surprising.

But Andrew never expected such a giant infant human form!

The thick tongue licked the ice cream, Andrew could clearly hear the agonized wails of Water Element spirits.

With a hissing sound, the ice cream was directly burned off a layer, yet before evaporating, it was pulled back by an invisible force, once more becoming part of the ice cream, endlessly.

"Oh? How come there's one more person?"

Lidzmat walked forward while eating the ice cream, glanced at Catherine, then looked at Andrew, "I thought only you were left."

Andrew struggled to gently lay Barbara down, then leaned on Shire's trunk, shakingly stood up: "Lidzmat?"

"It's me." The giant infant nodded.

A figure stepped between Andrew and Lidzmat, Catherine glared at the giant infant before her: "So it's you? You killed my father, mother, and my sister?"

The black Fire of Extinguishing, and formless Formless Blade Fire surged from Catherine's body simultaneously.

Previously she merged the two Strange Fires with "Royal Court Ice Pattern", forcing them to fuse into an Axe Spear.

Right now she didn't forcibly merge them, instead grasped the black axe formed by Fire of Extinguishing in her left hand, and the war spear formed by Formless Blade Fire in her right hand.

"Oh, so it's Catherine, Holigar mentioned you to me." Lidzmat smiled, "You possess my Fire of Extinguishing, I can spare your life. Holigar is dead, I need a new servant, how about working for me?"

While speaking, black Fire of Extinguishing appeared around Lidzmat, then... Formless Blade Fire, Orange Flame Warm Fire, Pure White Flame, Necromancy Purple Fire, the entire Eight Strange Fires surfaced except the Fire of Life, even some strange fires not recorded in history appeared.

All these flames were tightly controlled by the black Fire of Extinguishing.

Now Catherine seemed to completely ignore these, only stared at Lidzmat's face, remarked, "Did your mother teach you not to snatch others' prey?"

"Oh?" Lidzmat raised an eyebrow, looking downwards.

He saw an transparent spear, somehow it had pierced through his chest!

Andrew initially thought Catherine, being a twisted sister-killer and husband-killer, would accept the conditions offered by Lidzmat.

Never thought Catherine instead responded with actions, meaning: You damn well die!

She stabbed the spear through Lidzmat's chest and swung the black giant axe fiercely at Lidzmat's neck!

Catherine screamed hoarsely: "Do you know, Beiru, Yi Lian, and that dead girl Barbara are all my preys! Mine! They're on my must-kill list! You damn well dare to act before I killed them? Spit them out, give me back their lives!!"

Lidzmat sighed, seeming a bit regretful, then smiled, absorbed the spear and axe into his body.

At the same time, black flaming hands formed by the Fire of Extinguishing emerged from his back, slowly touched Catherine's body, gripping her limbs.

Afterward, Andrew heard Catherine's screams.

Catherine mentioned before that her method of fusing two Strange Fires was to endure unbearable excruciating pain, that's it, but probably apart from her being a madwoman, no one else can truly achieve this method.

Her pain tolerance was unparalleled.

But she was screaming now.

While screaming, she still cursed loudly.

This continued for a full fifteen minutes, then everything returned to calm, Lidzmat wiped his mouth, somewhat unsatisfied, his gaze returned to Andrew.

Andrew also silently looked at Lidzmat.

In fact, during the past fifteen minutes, Andrew didn't blink once, diligently and carefully watched the entire process.

Doing nothing, just watching.

Previously when Lidzmat killed everyone except him, Andrew couldn't see anything, couldn't gather any intelligence.

But now, despite the extremely discomforting scene, Lidzmat was "visible".

So Andrew watched very intently, very focused.

Most importantly, Andrew wasn't willing to just give up and concede! To anyone who traveled between worlds, they naturally assumed they were given the protagonist's script, meaning the pressure wouldn't exceed their limits. When Barbara fell, Andrew felt he nearly crumbled, couldn't bear it anymore. But when truly realizing that only himself remained in the world, the pain became too intense, instead became trivial.

Because... there's nothing more to lose.

After watching Lidzmat kill Catherine completely, towards the end, Andrew felt himself becoming slightly twisted, because physiologically it became less uncomfortable, ultimately through constant psychological self-suggestions, he felt as if watching a wildlife documentary.

Precisely at the moment he developed this feeling, a strong notion naturally arose in Andrew's mind: "Holigar might have been right. This monster is fundamentally 'unbeatable', attempting to 'defeat' it might be impractical from the start. It's simply impossible to 'win against it', only... to 'devour it'."
