What kind of monster did I mess with? This skill can attack enemies and heal oneself. It's no exaggeration to call it a divine skill. Even the gods probably couldn't do it.
Surprised and terrified, Morogal knew that it would be difficult for him to deal with her now. She was tough, could deal damage, and could even heal. At least for now, he couldn't do anything to her. "It's good to know your own limitations," was a phrase that the Demon King often said after returning. Now, he understood it too.
However, just because I can't defeat her doesn't mean I can't leave. This person is the biggest obstacle to the Demon Clan's unification of the continent, even more important than those reclusive protectors. I must go out and report to Her Majesty the Demon King, so that she can personally take action and destroy this human girl.
Despite her racing thoughts, Lin Xueyin's attacks never ceased because of her enemy's contemplation. Soon, Ned Soul Reaper was about to reap himself.
His entire body was battered and bruised, and he was panting heavily. With the help of Morogal, he finally managed to retreat to a safe area and stood in front of him, warily looking at the enemy who was still unharmed.
Lin Xueyin pouted, her fingers lightly touching the still-firm shield, seemingly very dissatisfied with their continued retreat.
I should have maxed out my stamina back then. Now look what happened! I was fighting two opponents, one melee and one ranged. It shouldn't have taken long, but because of my stamina, I couldn't sustain the fight for long.
While Mind Blast is very useful, it has a cooldown. In addition, the assassin is elusive and his dagger is poisoned, so I can't let my guard down. This has led to a prolonged fight, and my lack of stamina is somewhat disadvantageous.
"Little girl, don't force me. If we keep fighting, I can't guarantee you'll survive."
"Huh? You can't stop bragging, can you? Even after all this, you still want me to die? I think you've lost your mind."
One sentence made Morogal furious. Thinking of his efforts over the past hundred years, taking advantage of the conflicts between the gods and the elven race's own negligence to build this dream, only to have it broken by a little human girl, his hatred for Lin Xueyin grew even stronger.
"You forced me to do this." Seeing Lin Xueyin preparing to draw her gun again, Morogal had made up his mind that no matter the cost, he would definitely kill her.
Having made up his mind, Morogal signaled to Nid Soul Reaper to briefly hold off the other party, preventing her from paying attention to him. Upon receiving the signal, the other party understood his meaning, but she glanced at him with some worry. If the dream established by the Nightmare Clan were to be destroyed by him, it would be a great shock to him.
Shaking his head to indicate that there was no need to worry, Morogal seized the opportunity of Ned Soul Reaper's proactive attack and directly activated the nightmare energy in his body to the maximum. At the same time, the entire dream world that was closely related to him began to shake violently.
The ten elders also noticed the attack and, seeing Lin Xueyin fighting like a war goddess descended to earth, they all made the same decision—this woman cannot be allowed to live.
Lin Xueyin sensed the two energies constantly circulating. Although she was anxious, she was somewhat powerless in the face of Nid Soul Reaper's attack, coupled with the fact that all her mind magic skills, such as Mind Blast, were on cooldown.
Time passed quickly, and in just a moment the energy reached its critical point. The ten elven elders and one Nightmare Clan Chief unleashed their maximum energy, filling the entire space with a raging energy storm that brought it to the brink of collapse.
Damn it, Lin Xueyin had already sensed the impending danger. The violent shock caused by the shattering of space meant that she could not escape safely. Fortunately, it was a dream space, so it was not a life-threatening crisis for her.
"Mental shock."
The crisis was imminent, and the CD had ended. Just as the energy was about to tear the dream apart, Lin Xueyin used Mind Shock again. The powerful mental energy collided with the violent energy storm.
Originally, dreams were also a kind of spiritual energy. At this moment, the collision between the two did not produce a strong explosion. Instead, they continued to entangle and form an energy ball that distorted all the light in the space. The energy ball shrank continuously, but all three parties could feel that the energy contained in this shrinking ball was enough to completely tear the entire space apart.
"Not good." Sensing the danger, Morogal pulled up the already seriously injured Ned Soul Reaper, opened a back door, and the two quickly escaped.
The ten elders, looking at the girl whose expression had turned somewhat cold, chuckled dryly but still said, "I'm sorry, if you have anyone to blame, blame yourself for not being one of our elven race."
Lin Xueyin sighed deeply and cast a divine shield on herself again. "I think the Queen sent me in alone for this purpose as well."
Because Morogal destroyed the dream he had painstakingly built, the current Elf Queen can now communicate with the elders again. Therefore, she will definitely tell these ten elders what to do.
"I can only apologize for this."
"Not bad, at least you know how to apologize." Even though she was unwilling, what could Lin Xueyin say? At this moment, should she confront ten elders again? Don't forget, there was an energy ball about to explode in front of her. Once that exploded, the entire space would probably have to be rebuilt.
"Forget it, you probably won't live much longer anyway, what else can I say?"
As they spoke, the energy exploded violently, shattering the entire space into pieces. The girl, who was at the forefront of it, was already prepared.
With a divine shield around her and an additional protective barrier from divine protection, she was like a small boat in a turbulent sea amidst the chaos of energy, able to safely navigate the perilous situation despite the risk of capsizing.
The girl, who was resisting with all her might, did not notice that not far behind her, due to the chaos of energy, the dream's self-repairing ability was activated, opening a black hole that was constantly absorbing foreign objects.
By the time she realized the strong suction, it was too late. Under the mockery of the ten elders, she didn't even have time to be angry before she was sucked in.
"Is this woman finally finished?"
"Hmm, it's already been absorbed, so naturally it won't survive. It's probably already torn to pieces." The elder, who had been laughing triumphantly, suddenly sensed something again.
"Elder, what's wrong? Is there something amiss?"
The abrupt cessation of laughter sent a chill down the spines of the other elders, who had been gloating. What they had been doing inside was no small matter; if something went wrong, their own reputations would be damaged, but the millennia-old glory of the Elven race would be utterly destroyed.
"That little girl actually escaped. She used her mental energy to forcefully blast open a hole and escaped."
"What should we do? If people find out, we'll really be disgraced."
After a moment of silence, the Grand Elder spoke again, “Don’t be anxious. Even if this girl speaks, someone has to believe her. I don’t believe the human race will believe her. Besides, the human race’s opinion is not important. What’s important now is the demon race. I think the Demon King will make the right choice once he knows that this little girl is still alive.”
With such a huge threat right there, they'll silence you without you even having to lift a finger.
He chuckled and continued, "At this point, we shouldn't erase this little girl's contribution; we can even exaggerate it."
"Elder, if you say that, wouldn't it be...?"
With a triumphant laugh, the Grand Elder understood what the other person meant, so he didn't let him continue. Instead, he took over and continued speaking.
"That's the key point. The more we exaggerate her achievements, the less the humans will suspect that we've tampered with things. And the demons will also be more wary of her. Morogal alone might not be enough to make the Demon King decide to take action personally. But with our information reaching out, even the Demon King will have to seriously consider the threat this girl poses."
"The Grand Elder is wise; we are completely convinced."
Hearing the Grand Elder's plan, the other elders felt as if they had gained more knowledge from a single conversation than from ten years of study. They could almost see Lin Xueyin being beheaded and her head displayed after being killed by the Demon King, and they could almost hear the Elf Queen's prayer, telling them that the Elf race had lost a major threat.
"Alright, let's stop chatting and find out where that girl was teleported to. If she's still in the Kerluqin Forest, it'll be quite troublesome."
The elder thought for a moment and still hoped to know Lin Xueyin's exact location.
"Elder, don't worry, I've already checked. That girl wasn't teleported into the forest. She was probably teleported outside, to a very distant place, which my abilities couldn't detect at all."
"Haha, that would be the best. If we could be teleported into the Demon King's Palace, that would be the perfect place. Unfortunately, it has its own barrier, so it's impossible to teleport in."
"If it's not the Demon King's Palace, it'll be fine with the demons. That way, the Demon King can find her as quickly as possible, and then there will be a good show to watch."
"It's a pity. If it could trigger a war between humans and demons, that would be best, as our elven race could benefit from it." The Grand Elder seemed to have some other plans, but when everything was still unknown, he chose to remain silent.
Volume 5: The Winged Race and the Dwarves: Chapter 1: Fate and the Mercenary Group (Two chapters published together)
The injured Morogal and Nid Soul Reaper returned to the Nightmare Clan's territory in a panic, and their initial shock subsided somewhat.
"I think that huge explosion should have injured that woman." Morogal wasn't really confident he could kill Lin Xueyin; he could only hope that his self-destruction of the dream had caused some damage to Lin Xueyin.
"Don't worry, that explosion will definitely deal her a heavy blow."
Following Morogal, they traversed the dream passage they had previously established and returned to Nid Soul Reaper of the Nightmare Clan. Although he still had a blank expression, his scarlet eyes revealed a complex look of fear and resentment.
As an assassin, killing his targets is the meaning of his existence. However, not long ago, the meaning of his existence was shattered by a human girl whom he had always looked down upon.
A single spear rendered him helpless; even his own venomous twin blades could not inflict the slightest damage on her, not even leaving the slightest scratch.
That shield left him completely helpless, yet the opponent's spear left him covered in wounds. Even now, thinking about it, he still feels a strong sense of resentment and a lingering fear.
"I don't think the ten elders of the Elven race would let her leave alive."
These words seemed to awaken Morogal. Indeed, the elven elders' previous leniency towards her was a ploy to kill her. After she destroyed her dream, they would become her masters. Even if they couldn't kill her, these ten elders would still not let her go.
Don't blame others; blame her for being too sharp and outspoken. It seems she hasn't learned the lesson that "the tallest tree in the forest is the first to be felled by the wind."
Thinking of this, Morogal couldn't help but laugh out loud. However, the laughter immediately aggravated his wounds, causing him to cough uncontrollably. But he was in an exceptionally good mood. The Nightmare Clan had been rid of a great enemy, and he had finally avenged himself.
"Alright, now that we're back and she's dead, I'll head back..."
"You don't need to go back..."
A majestic voice echoed through the hall, reaching the ears of the two men and filling them with unease.
Stone sculptures of nightmare beasts surrounded the hall, their expressionless eyes staring mercilessly at the center of the hall, giving the hall a strong sense of oppression.
Morogal and Ned Soul Reaper entered the hall hoping to find some subordinates to help them manage things. However, they belatedly realized that none of the Nightmare Clan members, who should have arrived much earlier, had come.
The familiar voice pulled them back to reality, filling their hearts with unease. Had the Demon King discovered what they had been doing in secret?
"Your Majesty, welcome. I apologize for not being able to greet you properly."
Regardless of whether the other party was truly hostile, Morogal still knelt on one knee and bowed to the girl in front of him together with Ned Soul Reaper.
The girl in black armor simply stared coldly at the two men in front of her, without uttering a single word, and the atmosphere suddenly turned cold.
Sensing that oppressive aura, beads of sweat gradually dripped from the foreheads of Morogal and the other girl. However, facing the silent girl who was simply staring at them, they dared not show any dissatisfaction.
"What? Shouldn't you tell me about your results?"
Although she really wanted to slap those two bastards to death, her concern for Lin Xueyin made her decide to hold off for now. After all, they were already fish on the chopping block, and she could cut them up at any time.
"Yes, yes, I'll tell you right away, I'll tell you right away."
Perhaps the Demon King was very dissatisfied with his defeat in battle, and that's why he came here to demand an explanation. Thinking this way, his anxious heart calmed down a little, but the unease still lingered.
"Your Majesty, we had already planned to infiltrate both the Emerald Dream and the Azure Dream. If we could truly drive the Dragon Queen of the Azure Dream mad, the Emerald Dream would be corrupted. At that time, the Mother Tree that supports the Elven race would naturally wither and die, and the elves on it would also..."
"I don't want to hear that, I just want to know the result."
He raised his hand to interrupt the other person's attempt to continue the conversation, his bright eyes fixed on Morogal, causing him to shut up again.
Reorganizing his thoughts, Morogal, though indignant, dared not say anything that would only add fuel to the fire while the other party was clearly angry.
"Your Majesty, all of this has been thwarted by a human girl named Lin Xueyin..."
The sudden burst of immense energy left Morogal staring in horror at the girl before him, momentarily speechless, simply staring blankly at the Demon King standing in the eye of the storm.
Amazing! No wonder he was able to fight all the demon lords by himself and defeat them all. Thinking of the previous rumors, Morogal swallowed hard.
However, since the Demon King suddenly erupted, she probably already knew about Lin Xueyin's existence. It's likely that the Demon King also felt that Lin Xueyin was a major obstacle to her, which is why she reacted so strongly.
"Demon King, Lin Xueyin is no longer a threat."
The Demon King, at the center of the storm, looked up again and stared at Morogal, who was still speaking, waiting for her to say what she was about to say.
"It's like this, we've already..." Suddenly, he realized that if he said the elven elder killed Lin Xueyin, then he wouldn't have anything to do with it. If the Demon King were to reward those who had contributed, he would at most have a small contribution.
In other words, if he could take all the credit for himself, he could truly gain unparalleled honor. However, there is still a major obstacle to doing so.
She glanced at Ned out of the corner of her eye and, seeing that he hadn't thought of this, sighed softly.
"Because of Lin Xueyin's interference, I was forced to destroy my dream. I'm afraid Lin Xueyin has already perished... perished... in the shattered space after my dream was destroyed."
A murderous aura erupted from the Demon King's body in an instant, and his piercing eyes gradually turned blood-red, staring intently at the two of them.
"You mean, you killed Lin Xueyin?"
"Um, this..."
If Morogal still didn't realize he'd said the wrong thing at this point, he should really kill himself. However, he couldn't understand what Lin Xueyin's relationship was with the Demon King, or how her affairs could enrage the Demon King so much. A human and a demon shouldn't have any connection, right?
The fact that left him somewhat bewildered left him unsure of how to proceed. Just then, he heard Ned Soul Reaper, who had been silent until now, step forward and speak.
"Your Majesty, I believe Lin Xueyin is not dead yet. At the same time as the explosion, Lin Xueyin also used mind magic, and she had a shield on her body the whole time, making it difficult for her to get injured, let alone die."
Only after saying these words did the murderous aura seem to lessen slightly, but it was only slightly. The murderous aura directed at him was still intimidating, making people dare not utter another word.
