Epic Of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System Chapter 1852: Strange Happenings

Chapter 1852: Strange Happenings

Drake's slimes were eyeing some ruckus going on in the train, a bunch of people were screaming while trying to run away, only to be surrounded by several cactus roots with sharp spikes and beautiful red and pink flowers growing out of them.

All pa.s.sage areas had been blocked already, and the windows were rapidly being covered by these cactus roots everywhere. The culprit? A tall, slender woman with green skin, spikes over her several areas of her body, and a big orange flower over her head.

Before, she was only wearing a brown poncho covering her body, and she seemed to carry two huge guns with double loads, capable of blasting most brains into smithereens.

However, she preferred a different approach for her victims, as she possessed an impressive Esper Ability that combined amazingly well with her own half-cactus body.

"What the h.e.l.l is that..."

Drake was surprised, if not annoyed at that b.i.t.c.h doing this, she was giggling a lot too, enjoying the people growing increasingly more desperate. The worst part was that there were elder, kids, and adults here, most of them seemed to not even be partic.i.p.ants.

"P-Please spare us!"

"We aren't going to partic.i.p.ate in the race!"

"Why target us?!"

As they desperately pleaded for mercy, the half-cactus woman couldn't stop laughing out loud.

"Heheh... Hahahahah! You're all so funnyyyy!" she laughed. "Did you think that something like that mattered, heeeh? Dummies! You're all nice nutrients for my roots! I'm so hungry right now, so just shut up and get inside my belly!"

Suddenly, from her endless needle-covered roots, giant jaws made out of plant matter emerged, full of sharp teeth-like needle spikes that cactuses had, and drooling a sweet, scented liquid.

"Y-You f.u.c.king freak!"

As she was about to devour some people, suddenly, a group of three partic.i.p.ants of the race appeared, pointing their guns at the woman and her roots, firing dozens of bullets to blow her to shreds.

BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

The bullets pierced through her body, leaving her with many holes, while her roots were also destroyed rapidly, being blasted into smithereens.

"Eheheehh! You're so funnyyyyy!"

However, despite having been fatally wounded according to any normal person, the holes in her head and body meant little to her.

Her Esper Ability activated again, mending together all her holes and strengthening her defenses even more, the racers were shocked, as their bodies were suddenly impaled by sharp spikes.

Drake only watched and didn't help them, they were probably outlaws of their own, and less compet.i.tion also benefited him in the long run...

However, when they attacked defenseless, people, that's when he jumped.

His little slime form, a fragment of his own power, quickly transformed, using his Fire Dragon Transformation this time, even though he had merged it into Orochi's Skill, he could still use it separately.

FLUOs.h.!.+

"Oi, you already took down the compet.i.tors, leave the people alone!"

With his draconic fists swung downwards, the half-cactus woman gasped as half her body was burned to cinders.

"W-Who are you- GRYYAAAAAAHHHHH!"

She screamed loudly and agonizingly, as if Drake had torn apart her f.u.c.king soul.

"It seems that good ol' fire is always the best method against plant-based freaks."

"Y-YOU FAT LIZARD, GET AWAY FROM MEEEE! I HATE FIRE!"

The half-cactus woman screamed, quickly trying to escape from the window as she attempted to run across the train's ceiling.

As she escaped, she attacked Drake by firing dozens of giant spear-like spikes from her roots, which Drake quickly caught with his aura and burned.

"Don't think you're escaping!"

He quickly jumped towards her, burning her roots and turning them to cinders. His control over fire was superb as a G.o.d, so he was able to easily not burn the train with it.

The half-cactus woman screamed, cutting off her roots and trying to escape even while weakening herself!

"She's so d.a.m.n annoying...!"

Drake quickly climbed up from the window and jumped into the ceiling, finding her escaping from him towards another train car.

He quickly ama.s.sed Flames of Beginning into his claws, suddenly transforming them into dozens of giant spheres of flames and firing them against her.

"You're not going away!"

Drake leaped into the skies and flew with his wings, as his attacks reached her.

The half-cactus girl desperately regrew and expanded her body, firing her projectiles to stop

Drake's fireb.a.l.l.s.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

As this happened, he quickly descended towards her, as the half-cactus girl expanded her body even more, as a ma.s.sive amount of spiky roots engulfed Drake entirely.

"I-I got you! Now die!"

She pressed tightly with all her might, infusing all her body with her Esper Powers and Psychic Energy to cause its growth and strength to reach their limits.

CRAAAs.h.!.+

Blood started coming out in between the roots and vines wrapped around Drake, as the

woman was sure now that he must be dead.

"Ahhh! You're so big! I'm going to eat you up!"

Her roots began to secrete a digestive acid, attempting to digest Drake while she had "killed"

him.

Except that...

FLUOs.h.!.+

"Uuurrgh?!"

Flames erupted from Drake's heart, as his body was being crushed, he released them all, constantly burning himself to burn the cactus woman even more.

"You think you can f.u.c.king eat me?! BURN TO CINDERS!"

RUMBLE!

Releasing all the power he had inherited from Surtr, Drake honored his disciple as he unleashed an infernal blast of flames, without having to worry about people around them, a

giant tower of fire surged into the skies.

The flames were so intense they easily pierced through the cactus woman's entire body,

burning her and making her explode into cinders.

"W-Wait...! Wait a second...! I was so hungryyyyy...!"

BOOOMMM!!!

Her entire body exploded, leaving ashes behind which fell from the skies, Drake slowly regenerated this Doppelganger's body back to normal, feeling accomplished.

"Well, that's one trash out of the way... Huh?"

However, the plant woman had indeed left something behind, a green colored orb glowing

with Psychic Energy.

It was a small, green colored pearl no bigger than a pinky finger of a human, which was the

crystallization of her Psychic Energies.

"She had a core inside?"
