Chapter 376 Chapter 376 The Inferno Field (2)
For most this would have been deadly situation as their body was burned beyond the point of repair until all that awaited them was death.
However, Evelyn was simply unimpressed by the display.
She had heard that elementals were fearsome creatures, but the one she was dealing with now failed to live up to the reputation. At least from her perspective. To most the fire elemental trying to kill her was a very dangerous entity.
\'Crimson Twister.\'
Still within the fire elemental, Evelyn began spinning her body around and releasing the power of the heavenly flame inside her.
Every second that went by she poured out more magical energy until a fiery tornado overtook the fire elemental\'s flames.
At first the elemental showed no signs of concern at the sight of Evelyn using fire magic. Its body was made of flames, so it was normally impossible for it to be harmed by them.
Nevertheless, Evelyn\'s magic was far from normal, and the fire elemental soon felt a sensation it had never felt before.
Burning, a searing pain that it often inflicted on its victims, but something it would never know. Should never know. Yet, the crimson flames that emitted from Evelyn\'s body did burn it.
The fire elemental attempted to get away, but the vortex created by Evelyn\'s magic sucked it in.
A horrid screech like a kettle coming to boil resounded from the elemental\'s body. Its own flames were being consumed by one that was far more powerful.
Soon the terrible noise that the fire elemental was releasing quieted. The creature completely destroyed by Evelyn\'s heavenly flame.
\'Oh?! And what is that?\'
Looking down Evelyn saw a small gleaming mineral-like substance fall from what used to be the body of the fire elemental.
Flying down Evelyn caught up to the object before it hit the ground and gripped it in one of her claws.
She was a bit surprised at first to find that it was quite hot, enough to easily burn.
Luckily it had no effect on her other than surprising her with its heat.
Evelyn carefully examined the glowing red stone and quickly concluded that this must be the elemental\'s heart.
Unfortunately, it was not from the type of fire elemental she was looking for. Thanks to the knowledge the Aethersphere had granted her she knew what the heart of a grand looked like. This was not it.
\'Must be some other type. Oh well, I can experiment with it during brewing. I might be able to use it a substitution for certain items or maybe enhance certain concoction with it.\'
For a few moments Evelyn got lost in thought pondering what she would use this fire elemental heart for until her attention was drawn back to the battle.
A loud thud echoed through the area as the giant tortoise fighting the other two fire elementals slammed one of its legs down.
Glancing over, Evelyn saw that one of the fire elementals was buried under the tortoise\'s leg and that the earth around it was moving unnaturally. It was easy enough for her to tell that the tortoise was using fire magic to smother the elemental.
At first Evelyn did not much care, until she realized that there was only one more elemental for her to experiment on.
\'If it kills the last one, I won\'t be able to see how my gravity magic works on them.\'
In a panic Evelyn flew towards the final remaining fire elemental that was pelting the tortoise with flames even more fiercely than before now that its comrades were dead.
When she reached it she immediately activated her gravity field and lowered the gravity around her.
This had a profound effect on the fire elemental, causing its body to become squatter and its movements to become sluggish.
\'As I though, it works just like normal flames do.\'
Next, she upped the gravity and the fire elemental\'s body elongated and became fiercer.
Evelyn then used her gravity hammer attack to try and squash the fire elemental and found that it became a long thin line of fire that rose high into the air above.
Once she stopped her gravity magic the fire elemental moved back into its normal form, but it moved around in a daze.
\'Doesn\'t look like I can kill it with my gravity magic. However, having its form rapidly changed by an outside force clearly disorients it.\'
After she was done experimenting with gravity magic, Evelyn used her wind magic to slice the fire elemental into several tiny parts and watched what happened.
The hundreds of small flames that once made up the fire elemental tried to reform but did not have enough energy to move back into a central body.
It did not take long for the fires to blink out of exitance and the fire elemental to die. The damage it had taken from Evelyn\'s wind magic was too great for it to survive. Each individual flame too weak to keep burning.
Satisfied, Evelyn picked up the fire elemental\'s heart and compared it to the other one she had.
\'Looks like I will have to do this latter.\' Evelyn thought, turning towards the other surviving member of this battle.
The massive tortoise was eyeing Evelyn warily and taking up a defensive posture.
Most beasts were not particularly friendly with other types of beasts. It was survival of the fittest with the strongest often going on to kill those weaker than them to obtain greater power.
If it thought it could run, the tortoise would have. But its size made it slow and Evelyn\'s ability to fly made it obvious she would easily catch up if she wanted to pursue.
So instead, it prepared to fight in case Evelyn decided to attack. It had tough armored skin and a powerful shell that protected most of its vitals. The tortoise was more confident in fighting than fleeing.
