Chapter 213: Radiant Rose Dragon (7000 words, asking for monthly votes)_4
"Who is there?"
As Black Rose spoke, Hailbo exclaimed in alarm, "Lulu!!"
It was a cat monster with silver fur and pink patterns, standing twenty or thirty meters tall and seventy or eighty meters long, but now it was covered in wounds and on the brink of death.
"Clang."
Shards of space continuously fell, as everyone looked in the direction from which Cat Lulu had come.
The fog shattered, the space was like glass smashed by a rock, and behind it, in the pitch-black street, the corpses of the Nightmare Monsters transformed by the Fairy Clan were everywhere.
"I meowed for so long, why can no one understand what I'm saying?"
"Huh?"
Mei Xiang noticed the Radiant Rose Dragon in front of her, "Black Rose big sister? You were forced into Hero Liberation, is the enemy that strong?"
"..."
Black Rose didn't want to answer; the enemy wasn't actually strong, she could have won even without Liberation.
But her panties were forcibly taken as a trophy, how could she possibly voice such a matter?
"A new enemy?"
Ina had been ready to meet her fate, but with the arrival of a new enemy, her interest was piqued once again.
"Lulu, Lulu, are you okay?"
Hailbo knew he was just an incarnation, but seeing Cat Lulu critically injured made him very worried and anxious.
"Be, be careful."
With a feeble voice, Cat Lulu could only communicate through their contract to tell Hailbo, "This woman, she's very strong, not on the same level as the other guys."
"Lulu? Lulu!"
Cat Lulu turned into a small cat and lay there in Hailbo's arms.
The body granted by Hero Liberation was destroyed. Heroes wouldn't die—they had a second life.
But Cat Lulu's spirit was damaged; even with a second body available, it couldn't take any more.
"Are you talking to her? You have her aura on you, do you know each other?"
"!!!"
The voice of Mei Xiang sent chills down Hailbo's spine; his pupils shrank, and he realized, unnoticed, Mei Xiang had positioned herself between Ina and him.
"When did she...?"
"How did she get here?"
Ina and Hailbo both opted to retreat, but something eerie happened.
"What?"
Despite having retreated, the distance between the two and Mei Xiang had not changed at all, as if they had simply jumped in place and nothing had changed.
"It's no use."
Mei Xiang murmured to herself, "Between 1 and 2, there are countless invisible numbers, but no matter which one, they can't reach before 1 nor go beyond 2."
"What, what does that mean?"
Ina couldn't understand what Mei Xiang was saying at all, while Hailbo vaguely had some guesses, but more than that, he was astounded by Mei Xiang's Miracle Power.
Enormous, unbelievably so.
If one were to use data for comparison, if Ina was 800, then Hailbo would be 1500.
And Mei Xiang, at least over 100,000!
An almost hundredfold difference, unimaginable!
Even if Miracle Power is just MP and doesn't represent that the opponent's output is also a hundred times one's own, with such a disparity, if Hailbo still doesn't understand what it means, then he truly is an Iron Simpleton.
"A Master, at least a Master-level powerhouse."
A Master controlling Domain power was certainly not someone Hailbo and Ina could contend with.
The gap between Hero and Master was far greater than that between Transcendent and Hero.
"Damn it!!"
Ina almost reflexively aimed her Magic Wand at Mei Xiang, "Demonic Energy..."
"Boom!"
An unimaginable, intangible pressure descended on Ina and Hailbo. Ina watched in horror as the Demonic Energy at the tip of her Magic Wand trembled violently.
"How is that possible?!"
Demonic energy dissipated automatically, as if it had never existed, eerily so.
"Can't move."
With a single glance, two Heroic Level fighters were as if they had been struck by 'Mystery-grade Spirit Separation,' unable to move even a finger.
'The gap,' Hailbo: 'too big.'
"Finally met two who can talk."
Mei Xiang hadn't made a move against Hailbo and Ina, she heaved a sigh of relief: "Along the way, I've been meowing, barking, chirping, and cawing to no end, but no one responded to me."
"Mei Xiang, they are my prey."
"I was just asking for directions, not here to steal your kill, Black Rose sister."
As she was speaking, Mei Xiang noticed the white cloth strip in Ina's hands: "What's this, why does it smell like Black Rose sister, is it something of yours?"
"Ah!!!"
Black Rose was startled and pale, but before she could speak to stop it, the sound of space shattering came again.
"Wow!"
"Ahh!"
Sakura and Lycoris shattered the foggy space, tumbling toward Black Rose's side.
"You guys, how did you get so injured?"
Black Rose bloomed a rose in the air, catching the two women.
"Black Rose sister, step back a little."
Seeing this, Mei Xiang temporarily let go of Hailbo and Ina.
She turned her gaze to the side, where she felt a sword intent so huge it was beyond description.
"Hey! Are you all right?"
Black Rose asked, and Sakura, despite the intense pain, said: "Rose sister, quick, turn back, that woman is coming."
"Which woman?"
"Monster, a monster."
After Sakura finished speaking, Lycoris finally had the chance to catch her breath: "A monster not from the same dimension as us."
"Aleh, don't say such things."
Alaya emerged slowly from the foggy space, followed by Inya.
Iron Simpleton, having witnessed a completely one-sided battle, was now very confident, brimming with confidence: 'With Grand General Alaya, what is there to fear?'
"I was just playing a game with you all, but I truly stopped, you know."
As Alaya was speaking, although her eyes were closed, she could sense Black Rose's massive draconic form—how could the world's greatest Blind Female Great Swordmaster not sense it?
Then, Alaya picked up on the presences of Hailbo and Ina, the fallen Cat Lulu, and another fairy who had died countless times in the Dreamscape.
"Are you picking on my kids?"
Alaya's brow furrowed slightly, she pulled back her small Cross Sword, then took off the gigantic cross she carried on her back: "Actually, I'm best at cutting down huge things."
"Boom!"
Without being unsheathed, the Cross Sword, still in its scabbard, was swung fiercely by Alaya.
The next moment, a heaven-shaking, thousands-of-kilometers-wide sword qi flew towards Black Rose at an astonishing speed.
It carried countless types of Power of Laws, any one of which could wound Black Rose, and combined, with such range and speed...
"Can't dodge!!"
Black Rose tried to dodge, but her body was too large at the moment, which is the biggest weakness of beast types—an easy target.
"Swish!"
The earth split asunder, the city collapsed.
Thousands of houses were bisected with a cleave, the cut surfaces unbelievably smooth.
"Huuh~~ Huuh~~"
Black Rose reverted to her human form, the sword qi from Alaya causing her to break out in a cold sweat, and in front of the woman stood Mei Xiang, holding twin swords, facing Alaya from a distance.
"You blocked my sword."
"That's hardly a sword," Mei Xiang: "To swing such a strike without unsheathing, you're very strong."
"Just a little something I know."
Alaya still chose not to draw the Cross Sword, just holding it, horizontal before her: "So, would you like to play?"
