Chapter 580 Unstoppable Dragon
CRACK! The walls of the labyrinth resisted, their magic jolting back, crackling like lightning as it pushed Arad back.You can trace the roots of this content at n0v@lbin
Arad smiled, "Crack open! I only need one tiny crack." The void coursing from his body to the barrier drill pulled matter out of the labyrinth's walls with the mana alongside them, quickly draining the walls of energy to resist.
Even though Ann had all of Merlin's magic and mana. she didn't seem to be able to unleash it at a powerful enough stream to sustain the labyrinth while fending Arad's magic. It barely got there. A small opening appeared.
From the cracks, a black rat poked his head into the labyrinth. The moment its front foot landed inside, the whole place pulsed.
"He got inside! Stop him at all costs!" Ann shouted at the top of her lungs.

At the first layer, the deformed Merlin's monsters stood, staring at the tiny black rat that entered in horror. It looked so small. So tiny and harmless, yet they knew it. That thing was anything but harmless.
The rat's body started expanding and shifting. It grew wings and a massive tail. Sharp scales emerged from its skin as it burned with a dark purplish magic.
"DIE!" One of the monsters jumped.
Arad opened his jaw, biting the monster whole. As the rest stared, he gave her a chop and swallowed her.
"The void consumes," Arad growled, opening his jaw. The voice inside his stomach started violently pulling air in like a vacuum, sucking everything around him.
The monsters held onto the stones, trees, and ground for dear life, but it didn't matter what it was. Anything that got close to Arad's jaw got eaten.
BAM! The stair guardian, the giant Arad golem rushed toward Arad with a swing.
Arad turned around, smacking him with his tail, shattering him with ease. He then extended his wings and flew up, digging his way to the second layer where he swam through the mud.
"You're back!" The octopus queen rushed at him. "Sorry, but it's our job to stop you. We were resurrected just for that,"
Arad opened his jaw and turned toward her. Everything around her went black as a shockwave crushed her boneless body into a mush. Arad's void breath erased her alongside the other octopuses around in a single hit.
"Such a thing can't be,"
"Look," She pointed, "Such mass moving at that speed, we won't even..."
Arad landed on the other of side of the city, and no one remained alive there.
Even the fake Merlin failed to notice something before dying. Arad wasn't just running across the city. That would be pointless. He was just running around, eating everyone in his way. They died thinking they got rammed, but in fact, they were chewed.
Arad immediately flew up to the desert layer, emerging from the sand like a hungry scorpion looking for foot.
He stared around. Amber lost her arm to kill that massive worm. He could see the boss.
"Why are you still alive?" Arad growled.
Countless small worms bit Arad's limbs and wings to pin him down as the boss rushed forward, opening its massive jaw to bite.
Thud! Arad took one step forward, the worms holding him down and ripping apart as they couldn't tie him.
Arad's scales turned red, fire crackling, "You should be burned to death. Are you telling me losing her arm wasn't enough to put you down forever?"
Arad opened his jaw, biting the boss's jaw and swinging him around like a rope, only using his neck muscles. His scales crackled with fire as he unleashed a powerful breath.
The boss's body flashed red from the inside, inflating like a balloon before exploding in a burst of fire and blood.
^Monster that terrorizes humans,^ Arad thoughts, remembering how he ran with Merlin and Amber on his back.
"To them, to us, at that time, you were a monster, an apex predator of the desert." Arad looked at the blood, "But now, I'm the monster to you, worm."
Arad extended his wings, taking into the sky, "I shall never forget. The weakness and fragility of humans. And the terror we monsters hold," He looked up, flying toward the next layer.
"So one day I won't end up like you," Arad started digging his way to the next floor. "I shall keep my own power in check,"
