The Moon Thief

Heinald immediately stood up and stepped out of the crater. He calmly cleared the sand off his body and cast a sharp glance at the Phantom Sand Crab.

At that time, the Phantom Sand Crab had also reappeared.

Heinald gripped the Narox tightly in his hand and hurled it with all his might. Narox flew forward, cutting even the air, its speed exceeding that of an arrow.

*Thub* Narox stabbed into the body of the Phantom Sand Crab. Its balance was lost again, but this time he recovered faster and quickly lifted his two pincers into the air. As he did so, pointed stalactites rose from everywhere within a radius of two hundred meters.

Heinald reacted quickly to the ground shaking and jumped, sending Magical Energy to Embers while he was in the air and swung it out.

An arc of fire flew from Embers and hit into the Phantom Sand Crab's pincer.

The Phantom Sand Crab's pincer could not withstand the fierce fire stripe, and it instantly teared off as a whole. A trail of fire appeared where its pincers had teared.

"Now it's time to end this battle!" A fireball appeared in Heinald's hand, emitting intense Fire Element Energy into the surrounding area, and began to rapidly move towards the Phantom Sand Crab.

The moment the fireball landed on the Phantom Sand Crab, there was a destructive explosion, and all the surrounding vegetation caught fire. Even the waters of nearby Lake Quebec were starting to boil. The blast of scorching fire had engulfed it completely.

Heinald realized that the energy emanating from the Phantom Sand Crab had completely disappeared. When the scorching flames dissipated, he went to the center of the explosion and shook his head when he saw the lava pit forming. Even if it managed to survive the explosion, it would be doomed to perish in this lava pit.

"I think I can now easily search the depths of the lake." Heinald muttered.

When he dived into the lake, he immediately dived into the depths and began the search, hoping to find Inxius Plants.

He carefully searched the entire lake twice, but did not find a single Inxius Plant.

"So bad luck…" Heinald sighed as he emerged from the lake. If he managed to find an Inxius Plant, he could sell it for a high price or save it for future use.

Cursing his bad luck, he started to move forward to reach another hill. He didn't know what the others would do, but he would definitely go to the ruins and examine that area. Of course, he had no intention of ignoring Kiel's advice, he would always be on the lookout for any clues.

*UGAA!* Heinald heard a roar that shook heaven and earth as he made his way up the sloping road up the hill. The trees in the wooded area to his right were beginning to fall one by one.

"Damn it!" Heinald grit his teeth.

The body of a gigantic Spotted Volcano Gorilla, more than ten meters tall, appeared from among the trees. The Spotted Volcano Gorilla was an incredibly powerful Magical Beast. Moreover, the only thing that made him strong was not only his fierce attack ability, but also his defense, which was very strong. This Spotted Volcano Gorilla was definitely an adult, and his strength level should definitely be higher than Heinald.

Heinald immediately took a Phoenix Feather Potion from his pocket and drank it immediately. The Spotted Volcano Gorilla could do powerful fire element attacks, he definitely should n't be caught by his attacks. Other than that, he believed he could somehow get past his defense.

After all, he was a Level 2 Ainsar, and the damage of his spells was definitely too high.

The Spotted Volcano Gorilla picked up one of the huge fallen trees from the ground and hurled it at him. Although the tree was quite large, it was thrown like a stone by him.

"HA!" Heinald clenched his fist and punched the fast approaching tree. His fierce fist smashed the tree in the middle, and the tree split in two and was thrown into two different places.

Heinald pulled Embers out of the dimensional pocket of his robe and sent Magical Energy to it. Burning flames began to dance around the sword.

He started running towards the Spotted Volcano Gorilla at full speed, jumping as he approached and lowering his sword towards him. At the same time, flames began to emerge from the Spotted Volcano Gorilla's eyes, and his right arm was engulfed in flames.

"UGAA!" The Spotted Volcano Gorilla roared and swung his flaming fist at Heinald.

When the sword and fist collided, a sea of ​​flames appeared that instantly engulfed an area of ​​about two hundred meters. This sea of ​​flame spread in waves and turned everything to ash. Sensing the violent waves of energy that had emerged, some of the Magical Beasts quickly fled from that area, while somw others began to angrily stare at that area.

As a result of the collision, Heinald was thrown back about twenty meters, while the gorilla had two fingers severed.

"UGAAAAA!" The Spotted Volcano Gorilla roared angrily and jumped. As he raised both hands in the air, his fists were engulfed in red flames.

"Damn it!" Heinald's eyes widened. He immediately cast his spell, Whisper of the Wind, and pushed himself as far away from where he had once stood.

The Spotted Volcano Gorilla landed with two fists on the spot where Heinald used to be.

"BAMM!" A large-scale earthquake and an explosion of fire rising hundreds of meters appeared around the area. The surrounding trees, stones and plants were destroyed by the shock wave before being destroyed by the flames.

Heinald had not been able to move away from the area of ​​effect of this attack fast enough and was struck by a raging wave of fire. When he saw that the fire wave was coming directly towards him, he used the spell called Frost Wave and managed to reduce the burning of the fire wave a little at the last moment.

Still, the waves of fire had managed to inflict massive damage to his robe. If he hadn't used Phoenix Feather Potion, his skin could have had a serious injury as well.

"Damn monkey! I'm going to give you a painful death!" Heinald roared as he got up from the ground. A freezing aura began to radiate from his right arm. In a short time, his entire arm was covered in ice. As he swung his arm forward, a hand-shaped ice fumes shot forward, growing in size as it move forward.

When Ice fumes reached the Spotted Volcano Gorilla, there was a burst of fumes, and he turned into a frozen statue within seconds.

"Divine Chaos!" Heinald roared.

An energy field appeared that covered a wide perimeter. Violent lightning appeared above this energy field, then hundreds of lightning streaks fell on the gorilla incessantly.
