Elden: Ring of Calamity

Chapter 345 Chase

In the life-and-death fight, Latan did not doubt him at all. He immediately danced the two heavy swords into a ball of violent gust of wind and pressed forward, chopping towards Esti's head.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when Esti counterattacked, Lucia flapped her wings, and the huge dragon body quickly shrank in the flowing light, turning into a half-dragon state and flying away.

Although she couldn't figure out Lucia's intention, Esti would never let him get his wish. She endured the pain and used the bone armor on her head to take Latan's sword, roaring and chasing after him.

Latan frowned upon seeing this, and knocked the blunt sides of his two swords against each other. A dark purple electric light exploded between the blades, and a surging and heavy force field quickly spread out, wrapping around Esti's body as she rushed forward like a cannonball!

Buzz - Esti only felt a strange sound of distorted magnetic field in her ears, and the power flowing through her body suddenly stagnated, and her speed suddenly slowed down. For a moment, she even felt dizzy and nauseous.

He turned around suddenly and saw Latan rushing towards him wrapped in lightning. He was filled with shock and anger.

Because he had just inherited the memory of Segnis, he had been focusing his main energy on dealing with Lucia. In fact, it was Lucia who had taken most of the offensive in the previous fierce battle. He did not expect that Latan could cause such a big trouble with his full strength!
Perhaps it was the effect of the souls of the grandfather and grandson, Segnis and Selvis. Unlike the evil god with relatively simple and pure thinking a thousand years ago, Esti at this moment had a bit more human wisdom and thinking. Seeing Latan driving the gravity magic to delay his steps with ease, he was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood.

He is the only supreme ruler of the law of gravity in the world. Although his starry sky followers can also exert some gravity power, that is entirely based on the premise that he allows them to borrow it.

Over the years, the only ones who could steal this authority from him were the Black King and the White King who were of the same origin as him. At that time, he had not yet become a god, and could not monopolize this law. Later, when he had enough power, they sought shelter under the Moon Goddess, making it impossible for him to exterminate the outflowing inheritance of the law of gravity.

However, those Black Kings and White Kings were mortals after all, and could not bear the true power of the law of gravity, even if their disciples who had inherited the power over the years were counted. But what kind of person was this human who was less than 20 years old? He had only mastered gravity magic for a few days, but he could actually perform to this extent? !
Ever since she and Selvis were able to revive through mutual use, Esti thought she had enough understanding of the situation in the world. Although the current situation seems to be prosperous with three dynasties coexisting, the basic pattern is actually just an extension of the time when she first came to this world a thousand years ago.

Although the Eternal Queen who rose a hundred years ago was a brilliant and talented genius, after the battle a thousand years ago, this world had long lost the capital to dialogue with the Outer Gods on an equal footing. The current Golden Tree Order is just a replica of the Sky City era. The only difference is that they have no autonomy at all, and the only value of their existence in the world is to serve as loyal dogs of the Supreme Will.

A thousand years ago, the Supreme Will used several Outer Gods, including Him, to strangle the Star-Moon Civilization, which was in its booming period. A thousand years later, the successfully revived Esti was certain that the other party still wanted to use her to weaken the Golden Civilization.

If not for this, given the fear and hatred that the Xingyue descendants had towards me, how could I have revived so easily?
And when Esti had been fighting fiercely with the two demigods for a whole day and had not seen any reinforcements from the three dynasties, he became more certain of his judgment. It seemed that a thousand years later, that guy was still relying on the means of checks and balances and harvesting. Considering the world's always terrifying potential, it was indeed time to touch his sensitive nerves again.

Using herself as the knife to harvest mortals - although Esti was unhappy, she also acquiesced to this "cooperation".

Except for the kind-hearted outliers like the March God, all gods believe in respecting the strong. Even those as cruel as Scarlet Corruption and as cunning as the Mother of Truth have to bow their heads and remain dormant before the supreme will, don't they?
The Supreme Will promised to help Him recover the law of gravity that was lost in the Eternal Civilization, and then help Him devour the three Moon Gods and rule the world together with Him. Of course, Esti knew that the so-called cooperation was just mutual use, but since the Supreme Will could use Him, He could naturally use the other party to clear the obstacles on his way to becoming a god. As for the final failure and being sealed by others, it was just a matter of success and failure, and there was nothing to say.

After the seal was broken, Esti happened to see the two young individuals called "demigods" in the Tomb of the Gods. In Segnis's memory, she had seen their powerful strength far beyond that of mortals, but in his eyes, this kind of power was still far from that of the real gods like them.

Esti had already made up her mind. After devouring the two demigods, she would flee far away. Even though she knew that the Supreme Will only wanted to harvest the regular army of mortals and would not sit idly by and watch her kill them easily, she was not afraid at all. After all, the lives of the two demigods did not involve the fundamental interests of the other party. As long as she could quickly solve them with overwhelming power, the Supreme Will would not be able to do anything to her. On the other hand, since she woke up, she could vaguely sense that the Supreme Will seemed to be in a state that was a little wrong. Although the mysterious power was still suffocating, it was not as terrifying as a thousand years ago when she could only feel despair.

Could it be that, over the past thousand years, it's not just me who has become weaker, but that guy has also fallen into an unprecedented predicament?
In this way, even if after devouring these two demigods, the Supreme Will mobilized its power to kill her in order to maintain His "order" that deceived the world, Esti would have a certain confidence in escaping into the starry sky. At that time, relying on the pure runes in the bodies of these two little guys, she might be able to make a comeback one day.

However, despite having made all sorts of calculations, even having accurately calculated the intentions of the Supreme Will, Esti had never expected that she would suffer such a huge setback at the hands of these two ants, a man and a dragon, just as the plan had just started.

The dragon inherited the blood of Heraris and Platonsanx, and inexplicably mastered the power of death and some laws of life. It was difficult to deal with, but according to Selvis's memory, the human behind him was just the descendant of two human heroes, and even the identity of "demigod" was conferred after the marriage. How could he have such power?

What's even more infuriating is that the means he used to create the greatest trouble for himself was the law of gravity that originally belonged to him - when this power was in his hands, it was more than a hundred times stronger than those damn Black King and White King!
In the melee of pursuit, the three figures had already flown hundreds of miles away. Esti was mostly focused on chasing Lucia, and was seriously injured by the brave and desperate Latan, and the distance between her and Lucia was getting bigger and bigger.

Seeing that she would be completely thrown off by the dragon if she continued like this, Esti let out a sharp and piercing howl, and her twelve thin wings suddenly spread open, emitting a colorful and brilliant light!

Latan, who was following behind, was about to chop forward with a sword, but suddenly his heart started beating violently, and an extremely dangerous sense of death exploded through his pores!

His burly body twisted suddenly in rapid speed, and he twisted away the seven beams of light with unimaginable flexibility, then crossed his swords, first slashing out a wall of gale derived from the storm sword technique, and then his body instantly condensed into dozens of magic swords that shot out and met the remaining five beams of light in mid-air.

The air wall formed by the sword energy only blocked it for a moment before it was pierced through by the flowing light. The magic sword collided with it with a loud bang. The violent torrent of energy tore open large dark space cracks in the air. There was even a stream of light that rushed out like a poisonous snake and went straight for Latan's throat!
In a hurry, Latan had no time to block and could only dodge sideways.

The stream of light pierced through his magic shield without any hindrance, leaving a bloody hole on his shoulder before passing through his body and piercing into nothingness!
In the distance, Esti was obviously a little weak after launching this attack, but after such an obstruction, Latan had no time to intercept. Esti quickly closed the distance between her and Lucia. The twelve thin wings vibrated at high speed again, and it seemed that they were about to emit brilliant light again!

"Be careful!" Latan shouted loudly when he saw Lucia still had her back to the powerful enemy.

Twelve brilliant rays of light shot out, and in a flash, Lucia spread her wings, and the golden light flowing between her scales suddenly burst out, and her half-dragon, half-human body turned into a series of interconnected phantoms!
The light pierced through the "Lucia" in the front, but missed and disappeared into the void.

Esti was stunned for a moment, then her eyes suddenly focused, and she gritted her teeth and said, "Wings of the Void!"

At this moment, dozens of afterimages in the front disappeared one after another, and Lucia's figure appeared only a hundred meters away from Esti as if time and space were disordered. Then, with a dragon roar, she transformed into a dragon body again, and her four dragon claws, with the power of destruction, suddenly pierced into His star body!
