Chapter 972 - 31: Dragon Slayer Warrior
Right now, Tianmiao was huddled in a corner, watching the scene in front of her and tossing out the occasional comment with Kong Hou and Dong Xiao.
"Jesse’s Fighting Spirit actually turned golden. That’s really rare." Tianmiao marveled.
"Fei’er’s tail got hurt, oh no, a small piece is missing. Will it grow back in the future?" Kong Hou wondered.
"The Dark Night Elf’s Dark Magic feels really suffocating." Dong Xiao said.
In front of Tianmiao was a huge altar that had already turned into a chaotic melee. Dark Night Elves, the Dragon Clan, the Human Clan, the Dwarf Clan, and a few other races were going at it like crazy. Tianmiao clutched Kong Hou and hid in the corner to watch. This was their war; she couldn’t meddle too much.
With a "Boom!", a Dark Night Elf was sent flying and landed right in front of Tianmiao. Lying on his back, the first thing he saw was a pair of black eyes curiously looking down at him.
This kid? She’s that Dragon Knight’s little sister. The Dark Night Elf scrambled up and reached out to grab Tianmiao. If he could catch this hostage, it might change the course of the battle.
"What do you think you’re doing?" Tianmiao backed away. "I’m just a weak, pitiful, helpless little kid."
The Dark Night Elf didn’t care what she was saying and reached straight for Tianmiao’s shoulder.
The next second, the Dark Night Elf let out a miserable scream as his arm was chopped off by a Giant Sword.
Tianmiao turned her head toward the one who swung the sword and saw the butcher Boss’s face full of brutal flesh smiling at her. "Ah, sorry for making you see such a gory scene. I should’ve told you to close your eyes first."
"Oh, Boss, thanks for saving me. In light of that life-saving favor, that extra silver coin you charged me last time—I’ll give it back to you after the fight’s over." Tianmiao shrank back into the corner again. After thanking him, she calmly continued watching the battle in front of her.
Butcher Boss: "..." Why did that thank-you speech not move him at all?
"Go get ’em! You’re the best." Tianmiao suddenly pointed at the butcher Boss’s back and said.
The butcher Boss seemed to sense something and turned around, coming face-to-face with a Dark Knight. He bellowed and dove back into the fight.
"Let’s go rescue the Princess and those two Princes first." Tianmiao glanced at a cage in the distance, then crouched and dashed over.
The cage was covered with black cloth. Tianmiao yanked the cloth away and saw three people lying inside. All three were unconscious, looking utterly miserable. The Princess’s dress was torn to shreds, and it was smeared with food stains. It was obvious that the Princess hadn’t had a good time recently. As long as the Dark Night Elves kept her alive and brought her to the land of the Seal, they didn’t care about her quality of life.
Tianmiao stretched out a finger and lightly tapped; the cage bent open, creating a big hole, and Tianmiao slipped inside. She waved a hand before the Princess’s face, and the Princess slowly came to.
"Tianmiao! What are you doing here?" The Princess woke up and asked in surprise. "It’s dangerous, how can you..."
"It is pretty dangerous. Let’s find a place to hide first." Tianmiao waved a hand before the two Princes’ faces; the two of them slowly woke up and met Tianmiao’s gaze.
The Princess turned to look at the battle in front of them and shook her head firmly. "I...I want to join the fight."
"You sure? You just woke up; you haven’t recovered yet, have you?" Tianmiao was a bit surprised by the determination in the Princess’s eyes. This pampered Princess seemed pretty reliable at crunch time.
"I’m sure!" The Princess was about to climb out of the cage when Tianmiao grabbed her hand.
