Chapter 18
* Sssii! * * Sssii! *!
The spitting of a snake's tongue continuously sounded.
* Bang! *
A gigantic long black figure charged towards the Knights under the concealment of the darkness.
" Except you three , All of you eat the 'pill' " Leylin commanded pointing towards one Grand Knight and two normal Knights.
Leylin threw a illuminating potion. It exploded in midair, and shone down, illuminating the cave .
Leylin squinted his eyes and sized up the creature .
A giant snake, more than a dozen metres long, and was black in colour all over. It was filled with the rhombus-shaped scales. On its back, there was a long red line, stretching from the head to its tail.
On the middle of the snake's head, there was a small stubby horn, emitting immense energy waves from it.
Under the horn was a pair of triangular shaped pupils. Its bright yellow eyes looked like amber, as it stared at Leylin and the rest.
"A.I.Chip Scan the stats of the Black Horrall Snake in front of me!"
Leylin ordered even though he knows about it.

"Attack"
"Hisssssss!"
Before, Knights could attack the Black Horrall Snake let out an ear-piercing hiss.
The massive body of the Black Horrall Snake began to writhe and the tail was sent flailing. The cave seemed to shake.
It send it tail towards a Knights crushing him , Leylin knows that even with Potions these Knights can do no harm. he doesn't want them to either, they are there to just buy time and distract it for him to attack.
leylin roared, and a few attack potins was sent flying towards the Black Horrall Snake's body.
* Bang! * The potions hit on the scales of the Black Horrall Snake, and an explosion were created.
The Black Horrall Snake did not budge at all and opened its bloody mouth, directly chomping on Knight, swallowing him with a gulp.
On the neck of the giant snake, there was a bulge as if someone was attacking within.
Very soon, the bulge entered the stomach of the snake and the struggle within grew smaller and smaller, finally turning still.
The whole process took only a few seconds.
The Grand Knights eyes were frenzied and he directly charged forward.
* Bang! * The thin silver sword slashed at the Black Horrall Snake's scales, creating a long gash. A few palm sized scales too dropped out.
"Hisssssssss!" The Black Horrall Snake hissed angrily and flung its tail.
* Bang! * As if it were a black lightning, the long tail viciously struck another knight.
He seemed to fly out like a cannonball, creating a large hole in the walls of the cave.
* Hua La La! * Mud and rocks fell down, revealing A meat paste .
"Cloud of Afterlife!"
Leylin used his spell that he was proud of. A large murky green cloud immediately engulfed the Black Horrall Snake within, the corrosive sounds constantly emitting from within the mist.
After the dark green Cloud of Afterlife had dissipated, it revealed the massive Black Horrall Snake's figure within.
The scales were still gleaming, as usual, only that in that large gash that Grand Knight had left on its body, the surrounding flesh had been corroded to a purple black state. Leylin Spiritual Force is very pure and high, so his spell had a much greater effect.
The huge snake's eyes seemed dispirited. Looking at it, it was evident that Leylin's attack effected it.
"All together!" Leylin shouted towards his knights and Except One Grand Knights all attacked.
*Bang!*
The huge snake lost its balance and fell to the ground, bringing up dust and rock shards. The Grand Knight jumped on its head trying to drive a sword through its head.
The eyes of the Black Horrall Snake revealed a human-like ferocious expression.
*Bang!*
A tremendous amount of spiritual force was released.
The Grand knights chest seemed to have been struck by a hammer and he was sent flying backwards, crimson red blood was constantly spurted from his mouth.
Leylin withdrew the cross blade on his waist. With an incantation, a layer of frost covered the cross blade.
Frost Alchemy Runes! It was a type of alchemy rune that was specially used on equipment, adding on might equivalent to a low-grade magic artifact temporarily. After using it the equipment would normally break.
The frost greatsword was immediately wielded and raised in Leylin's hands.
"Attack him, I'm going up!"
After releasing an explosive amount of spiritual force to inflict damage on Grand Knight, the Black Horrall Snake right now continuously writhed its massive body, the energy waves surging out rampantly.
"Cross Blade Slash!"
Leylin's muscles bulged, and he made use of his Grand Knight Strength to attack Black Horrall snake without entering Explosive state.
Under the loud roar, Leylin jumped high in the air. Two arcs of slash were sent from the frost greatsword.
The two slashes crossed one another, forming a large 'X' in the air. Frost continued to condense, creating a layer of ice on the large 'X' which was sent towards the Black Horrall Snake.
*Chi!*
The icy 'X' directly chopped at the neck of the Black Horrall Snake. Scales continuously fell and there was a layer of ice on the area.
There was a giant cross-shaped wound on the Black Horrall Snake now. The frost continued to spread and a lot of fresh blood with a trace of black coloured snake blood was forced out from the wound.
"Hisssssss!" The black snake let off an pained cry. It violently thrashed its body.
"Hisssssssssssss!" After the madness, the Black Horrall Snake strangely calmed down.
After halting its writhing, the scales on it body continuously flashed with a black light, emitting a layer of negative energy that Leylin was familiar with.
Without warning, half of the Black Horrall Snake's body turned transparent. First, it was the scales, then the skin, the flesh and finally the bones
The transparency very soon covered the body of the whole snake. The giant snake which had the length of a dozen metres disappeared in the next moment.
"Hurry! defensive formation!" Leylin roared. All the Knight quickly formed a circle around Leylin, this is what he has been waiting for, The expenditure of this Spell is too much and with the damage done to him by Leylin, Black Horrall snake will not be able to hold out for much longer at most it can kill some more Knights.
Under the illuminating potion, the whole cave was brightly lit.
There was only dried mud on the floor. Apart from scales and a few puddles of blood, there were completely no traces of the snake's tracks whatsoever.
It was as if such a massive snake had just vanished.
Hisssss!"
Behind the place where Leylin was originally standing, there was a flickering in the air and the massive body of the Black Horrall Snake materialised.
From the huge head of the snake, a vicious ray of light flashed. The snake opened its jaws and clamped on the Grand Knight who was standing close to Leylin's original position, Leylin smiled.
*Boom!*
An intense explosion sounded within the snake's mouth and a layer of purple flame escaped from the jaws.
A huge energy wave was detected which led the A.I. Chip to flash indicators wildly. The Grand Knight used the Explosive Potion that Leylin gave him inside the Black Horrall snake mouth.
