Every piece of magic nuclei was the size of a pumpkin, and they were several times bigger than the magic nucleus of a dragon. This was an anomaly, because even though the magic resistance and defenses of the beast had been high, they still would not have been as high as those of a dragon.
Lex and Saleen finally understood that the powerful defenses the beast had were a result of the magic array that had been formed by the six magic nuclei. Otherwise, the Grade 6 Fire Serpent spell would have burnt more than just its scales, and the javelins of the puppets would have definitely hurt its flesh and not just pierced through its scales.
Every inch of the beast's body had possessed the same defensive abilities, and any external attacks had been mitigated by the magic array.
