Chapter 698: Chapter 448: Lis’s Determination!
Elf Royal Court,
Lis stopped swinging his sword, slightly panting, his face somewhat pale.
As the ultimate skill of a Golden Rank Warrior, “[Blade Storm]” could be mastered even by those who hadn’t transferred to the Sword Saint profession.
Since it was a rare large-area group attack skill, it was extremely important for warriors with few group attack methods.
At the same time, the damage and range of “[Blade Storm]” could be enhanced based on the Magic Power expended by the user.
To save time and quickly kill the Abyss Blood Tree in front of him, Lis had expended a considerable amount of Magic Power.
Although the huge Abyss Blood Tree in front of him might still possess a sliver of sentience, guarding the two elves on it, Lis did not hold any reservations because of this.
When tainted by the Abyss Breath brought by Demogorgon, these Elf Ancient Trees found it very difficult to return to their prior state.
Otherwise, during the subsequent Abyss Blood Battle, those tainted Elf Ancient Trees wouldn’t have troubled the allied forces of all races in the Gaia World, and even divine intervention struggled to completely expel the evil aura within the Abyss Blood Tree.
On the other hand, Angela quickly killed the other several medium-sized Abyss Blood Trees.
For the Abyss Blood Trees that had only recently been contaminated with Abyss Breath and had not yet evolved related skills, they were merely punching bags in front of Angela, who wielded the Half-divine Scythe, with their massive bodies and formidable strength posing no threat at all.
Ignoring the frenzied roars of the Abyss Blood Tree, Lis flashed and appeared beside the two elves on the tree.
“Bella! Mil!”
Lis kneeled, gently tapping the faces of the two elves.
The faces of the elves were pale, their expressions somewhat panicked, and they did not wake up even under Lis’s calls.
Lis tried using several spells to dispel negative statuses, but to no effect.
“This is troublesome.”
Lis frowned, the status of these two elves seemed similar to Cecil’s, probably immersed in that environment, beyond help from outsiders.
What exactly was this illusion? It was particularly eerie, wasn’t it?
Even though the Mystery Lock Barrier of the Elf Royal Court was nearly destroyed and currently hard to recover, why couldn’t Cecil and the others break free?
However, Lis thought about the time he was caught in the illusion, completely unaware of anything wrong, slowly having his knowledge and memory altered by the illusion, indeed, it was unforeseeable.
If it hadn’t been for a combination of many factors, Lis would have found it very hard to escape.
“Let’s bring them along.”
Lis made a decision, since his aim was to rescue people this time.
Lis took Mil, and had Angela carry Bella.
The bodies of the elves were very light, not much of a burden for Lis and Angela.
Compared to sensing other elves’ presence within the Elf Royal Court, Bella and Mil’s status seemed much better, aside from being somewhat weak, they showed no visible injuries.
It seemed the Abyss Blood Tree was indeed protecting these two elves, possibly because they had always lived in the Elf Ancient Tree forest, and the ancient trees remembered their characteristics?
No need for further words, Lis and Angela continued towards the Elf Royal Court.
Along the way, although there were remaining Abyss Blood Trees that attempted to attack them, both Lis and Angela avoided them, and they didn’t see any other living elves.
Soon, Lis and Angela arrived outside the walls of the Elf Royal Court.
Because Lis remembered the surroundings of that particular wall when he dissipated the incarnation.
This helped Lis quickly ascertain Cecil’s location.
When Lis climbed the wall, seeing Cecil collapsed by the wall, he sighed in relief.
Although Cecil’s location had shifted slightly since Lis left, that was likely caused by the shockwave from the clash between Correlon and Demogorgon.
Fortunately, the outer walls of the Elf Royal Court were extremely solid, even fortified with Divine Power.
In the aftermath of the colliding shockwaves, most buildings in the city were destroyed, yet the city walls remained unscathed.
Lis picked up Cecil in a princess carry, with Mil on his back, ready to leave with Angela.
After all, he was there in his True Body, and it was prudent to be cautious at this time.
Just as Lis was preparing to leave with Angela, something unexpected occurred.
Suddenly, the ground of the entire Elf Royal Court started to tremble violently, and in front of Lis and Angela, the sea of blood covering the Elf Royal Court, under the influence of an invisible force, began to recede crazily towards the center of the Elf Royal Court like ebbing tide.
Even the disgusting tumors attached to the buildings of the Elf Royal Court instantly turned into blood water and vanished.
Even the Abyss Blood Trees outside the city turned to ash under the effects of the invisible force, all power disappearing along with the sea of blood, leaving only the lifeless, desolate yellow ground.
“What’s going on…”
Lis cautiously observed his surroundings, especially in the direction of the core of the Elf Royal Court.
Because most buildings in the city were destroyed, Lis’s field of vision had suddenly broadened.
He faintly saw that at the center of the Royal Court, at the location of the World Tree Altar, the power of the blood sea was converging.
And in the air above that spot, he could vaguely make out a figure hovering in mid-air.
