From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword
Chapter 691 - 419: Queen’s Will (Part 2)
CHAPTER 691: CHAPTER 419: QUEEN’S WILL (PART 2)
Boulders, burning oil, chevaux-de-frise, trenches... all are playing their roles.
The Elf Team poured burning oil from the top of the city wall, then shot fire arrows to ignite a blaze, burning vast swathes of undead skeletons to ashes.
However, Queen Orelana had already reached her limit.
Once again, sent flying by the Hell Demon Dragon, she could no longer stand, lying in the ruins, her right hand still gripping the magic wand tightly, refusing to let go.
The Hell Bone Dragon came before her, looked down at her, and spoke in a deep, hoarse voice: "You’ve lost. Become my servant, and I can preserve your most beautiful form, granting you the strength of immortality."
Queen Orelana’s gaze sharpened, and she abruptly lifted her head to look at the head of the Hell Demon Dragon.
In the eye socket on its head, there were two demon fires burning, appearing like its two eyes.
At such a close distance, she finally noticed a difference between the two demon fires in the eye sockets.
Inside the demon fire of the left eye socket, there was solid substance.
It was unmistakably a skull emanating a black glow.
As this skull was hidden in the dragon’s eye socket and enveloped by demon fire, it was impossible to notice from a slightly greater distance.
Upon discovering the bone sovereign’s true form, Queen Orelana’s eyes sparked with a resolve to perish together, and she shouted loudly, her eyes shooting a bolt of lightning towards the left eye socket of the dragon.
Bang!
As the lightning was about to hit the Black Crystal Skull, the outer circle of the dragon’s eye socket unfolded a layer of shield.
The bone sovereign’s voice rang out again: "Your ambush is too clumsy. Die. I will make you into the most beautiful undead."
As the words fell, the bone dragon raised its front paw, slapping it down towards Queen Orelana.
Bang!
As the dragon claw came down, Fiona shouted and rushed forward, raising a shield to block the blow for Queen Orelana.
Bang!
The tower shield shattered, and unable to withstand the immense force, Fiona rolled and was sent flying, her left arm shredded to bits, bursting into a mist of blood, with severe injuries across her body, flesh mangled.
Seeing her trusted aide general, who grew up with her, gravely injured, Queen Orelana’s eyes flickered with a moment of grief, but she had no time to linger, raising her magic wand once more, shooting out lightning to attack the left eye socket of the bone dragon again.
Bang!
The lightning blasted into the bone dragon’s eye socket, striking the Black Crystal Skull, extinguishing even the outer demon fire, but the glistening black skull remained unchanged.
"You ants still don’t understand what a god is."
The voice of the bone sovereign emanated from the Black Crystal Skull, filled with arrogance and divine might.
The final desperate strike failed to damage the bone sovereign’s true form, and despair flashed momentarily in Queen Orelana’s eyes.
This outcome was not entirely unexpected, although she still wanted to make one last effort without witnessing it firsthand.
After unleashing her father’s Elf King blessing, she could gain combat power close to that of a demigod, but she also understood more of what a god was.
Even a demigod differs vastly from a mortal.
The power that could easily harm mortals was utterly ineffective against a demigod’s body.
Just like the lightning she unleashed earlier, which could bring down a living giant dragon, it had no effect when it struck the Black Crystal Skull.
This is the great power of a demigod, immune to nearly all attacks beneath a demigod’s level.
Whether physical, magical, or spirit-based, nothing could harm a demigod.
...
The bone sovereign controlled the bone dragon, stretching its claws to grab Queen Orelana, lifting her before it, exhaling a breath to blow the dust off her body, then admiring her blood-stained but beautiful appearance.
"Beautiful things are always afforded leniency, and your beauty shall remain forever in the Abyss, eternally... accompanying me."
Speaking, the bone sovereign released a stream of death spirit energy, which flowed along the bone dragon’s claw into Queen Orelana’s body.
"Ah!"
Queen Orelana gritted her teeth to resist, but seeing the streams of death spirit energy entering her body, and thinking about soon becoming an undead banshee, a hint of despair arose in her heart.
She gradually clenched her fist, preparing to use the last of her magic energy to self-detonate.
If she became an undead banshee, it would be the greatest disgrace to Queldorei. She would rather die completely than bear such a burden of indignity.
At this moment.
A sword light flew in from the south.
Flying Dragon Hunting Sky, a sword cutting through the air, with a "clang" severed the front claw of the Hell Demon Dragon.
Queen Orelana, along with the severed dragon claw, crashed to the ground.
Terres finally returned, catching Queen Orelana in mid-air, delivering her to the Elf Clan healer team, then turning to face the Hell Demon Dragon.
Queen Orelana mustered her final strength to say three words: "Left... left eye socket..."
Roar!
The Hell Demon Dragon, furious from losing its front claw, unleashed an angry roar, opening its mouth to spew demonic flames at Terres.
Terres wielded his sword and leaped, like a bolt of lightning, darting along the ground to evade the demonic flames’ attack.
The demonic flames struck the walls, buildings, and arrow towers, incinerating everything they touched to ashes.
Terres engaged in battle with the Hell Demon Dragon, sensing the tremendous power of the bone dragon after several clashes and noticing the Black Crystal Skull in its left eye socket.
He attempted to find an opportunity to attack the Black Crystal Skull in the bone dragon’s left eye socket but failed each time, even narrowly avoiding a few hits.
Among the entire Elf Clan, he was already one of the strongest, second only to Queen Orelana, who had activated her Elf King blessing, on the Queldorei Continent.
Even so, when facing the bone dragon with the bone sovereign’s true form embedded, he remained at a disadvantage.
At this moment, he understood why Orelana was so injured. The pressure of fighting alone against such a demigod-level bone dragon was imaginable.
If no other support arrived, he would lack the capability to defeat the bone sovereign, and the number of undead skeletons flooding into the city increased.
If the delay continued, Kolos City would inevitably fall.
Fortunately, he knew reinforcements would arrive soon. What he needed to do was to conserve his strength and hold off the Hell Demon Dragon until Lu Heng reached the city.
He engaged in a hit-and-run manner against the Hell Demon Dragon, focusing on feints, avoiding direct confrontation whenever possible.
After entangling in over a hundred exchanges, the bone sovereign also recognized Terres’s intent, snorted coldly, and turned away to slaughter other elves.
Seeing this, Terres felt a heavy weight in his heart, this was his most feared outcome.
At this moment.
A divine bird’s cry pierced the heavens.
Screech!
The Qingluan Divine Bird transformed into a stream of light, flying above the city, leading by unleashing solar wind to engulf a large area of undead skeletons below, alleviating pressure for the defending Elf Guard.
The arrival of the Qingluan Divine Bird signified that Lu Heng’s group of four was near.
The next moment, dots appeared on the horizon, the returning Dragon Hawk Knight team.
With more than ten kilometers to the city head, Lu Heng jumped off the Mechanical Tiger and sped toward Kolos City.
