Unspeakable bubbles

"Since Miri said so, Bella, I'll just take it as true for now."

Bella's smile faded, and she said seriously, "The Great Plains may not be a peaceful place right now, but who are you? You are the hope of the Unicorn Academy, the future pillars of the Federation's mystical side."

"With Bubble and Hisako handling the fighting, Misato, you're in charge of using your wits to come up with ideas. If the three of you work together, the grasslands may be dangerous, but we might as well take a trip."

"Jiujiang, what have you been training yourself for all these years? Isn't this trip to the grasslands a great opportunity to test yourself?"

Hisae Nagano paused slightly, pondered for a moment, and finally nodded.

"I doubt the academy would be so extravagant as to risk the lives of the three of us... In that case, I'll go to the Great Plains!"

"very good."

Bella nodded, then looked at Bubble: "Bubble, would you like to go?"

"Bubble wanted to go see the grasslands anyway, no problem." The little girl gave an OK sign.

"Alright, now only Misato is left."

Bella said casually, "Actually, compared to doing off-campus practice with students from lower floors, Bubble and Hisa are a pretty good pair, aren't they?"

“Of course it’s good, Miss Bella, give me some time.”

Misato Toda hesitated for a moment: "I'll give you an answer tonight."

"Okay, I'll wait for your news."

............................................................

Miss Bella's words had some impact on Hisae and Misato.

After a day of classes, Hisa went straight to the gymnasium to exercise without even having dinner, while Misato also hurriedly returned to her dormitory.

As for Bubble, the little girl didn't have a direct understanding of the dangers on the grasslands; she just felt that going to the grasslands was a very happy thing.

Whenever Bubble thinks of the vast grasslands, he thinks of his friend Kuroro.

Because Kuroro wanted him to visit the Great Grassland before he left, Bubble unconsciously developed a fondness for the Kuntila Grassland.

I heard many people there are sick; I hope everyone gets well soon.

Silently offering a blessing to the people of the grasslands, Bubble ran into the toilet alone.

I accidentally scared Misato yesterday, and she didn't sleep well all night.

This time, Bubble learned its lesson and found a place where no one could see it to enter the shadow space.

"what!"

Bubble was startled as soon as it ran into the shadowy space.

Countless shadow creatures rushed up their mountaintop and fought against the dogs led by Crusher No. 3.

As things stand, the situation is not good.

Although none of the shadowy creatures that rushed up the mountain were as formidable as Cerberus, their sheer number made up for it.

Even with three heads, the three-headed dog was not enough at this point.

"Your Majesty, I was just about to inform you that Crusher Number Three and the others are about to collapse," Carmen said calmly.

"Why are so many bad guys suddenly appearing? By the way, where is the stone crab?"

Bubble sensed the presence of the stone crabs but couldn't detect them at all.

"Unfortunately, the stone crabs have been wiped out."

"Your Majesty, I made an important discovery after you left."

Carmen quickly replied, "There is no supreme will in this shadow space."

"In the earliest days inside the house, Your Majesty, you could freely command all the shadow creatures within."

"Later, after the small mountain came into being, Your Majesty's will was also above all else, and no shadow creature dared to disobey your orders."

“But it’s different here. Although this space also has a lord, its will cannot affect all the shadow creatures.”

“Carmen, did you see that lord?” Bubble asked.

"I've seen it. There's a large canyon in the far east. That's the territory of the Shadow Dragon, a forbidden zone for other shadow creatures."

"Shadow Dragons are at the top of the food chain in this space, and their leader is the Shadow Lord!"

Section 230, Chapter 229: The Great Labyrinth

"dragon?"

Bubble didn't know why Carmen was so certain that the leader of the Shadow Dragons was the lord of this space, but the name Shadow Dragon alone piqued her great interest.

"Is it the kind of dragon described in the book, with two wings, looking like a lizard, and able to breathe fire?"

"I don't know if it can breathe fire, but it is indeed as you described, Your Majesty."

Carmen's voice was filled with excitement: "Your Majesty, I think now is a great opportunity!"

"What opportunity?" The little girl looked confused. The current situation was that shadowy creatures were attacking her mountain, and Bubble couldn't see any opportunity in this precarious situation.

"Losing territory is not a problem. What's most important is that you, Your Majesty, subdue or kill that Shadow Lord and seize control of this space!"

Carmen glanced at the battle situation and estimated that Crusher No. 3 and the others could hold out for a while longer.

"Your Majesty, let's retreat while they're still stalling."

"no!"

Bubble resolutely refused: "This is my little hill. The dogs are still fighting. Bubble can't run away."

"It's not an escape, it's a strategic shift."

Carmen earnestly advised, "The lord on the other side is not taking you seriously at all. He's just mobilizing some shadow creatures to attack the mountain instead of personally leading the attack."

"Of course, it can't be considered wrong to do it this way."

"Who would have thought that such a powerful being as Your Majesty would reside in a shadowy space the size of a mountain! Originally, based on the size of the space, our strongest combat force here was only at the level of Crusher No. 3."

Carmen had only seen Bubble make a few moves, but that didn't stop him from having full confidence in the little girl.

Although it is now just a vengeful spirit that has not even formed a physical form, it has the memories of the former 'Marquis Carmen' and its judgment is not bad.

In its view, no one can do anything to Bubble unless the Chaos Lord himself comes.

Both the Chaos Lord and the Shadow Lord are called Lords, but they are completely different.

Unlike the Chaos Lord, whose reputation is highly valuable, the Shadow Lord is actually quite unreliable.

Bubble is now a Shadow Lord, as was Crusher No. 3 before, and even the Stone Crab leader who was easily killed by Crusher No. 3 was also a Shadow Lord.

Can these three be measured on the same level? Obviously not.

“Your Majesty, before the Shadow Creatures attacked the mountain, Crusher No. 3 and I traversed most of the plains. The Shadow Creatures here have a strong sense of territory, and the tribal leaders are all quite powerful. Several of them made Crusher No. 3 feel threatened.”

"However, I did not see any tribal leaders among those shadow creatures attacking the mountain, nor even any shadow creature tribes led by powerful leaders."

"What does this mean? It means that the Shadow Lord here lacks prestige; in other words, it's not powerful enough!"

Carmen said seriously, "The enemy shadow creatures have been attacking the mountain for quite some time now. Judging from the current situation, we can hold out for a while longer."

"Right now, any powerful tribal leader could break the deadlock and completely crush us, but what would the result be?"

"None of the real powerhouses have come; they're just using their numerical advantage to suppress us."

"Your Majesty, if I may be so bold as to ask a question."

"Oh." After listening to Carmen's long-winded talk, Bubble felt a little dizzy, but couldn't help but feel a sense of awe and wonder.

Upon hearing Carmen's question, Bubble nodded subconsciously.

"If the current King were to fight Crusher Number Three one-on-one, how many rounds would it take him to defeat him?"

Without much thought, Bubble quickly extended one finger.

"Hmm, so that means Crusher Number Three can't pose a threat to the King?"

"Yes, bubbles are really amazing."

"The lords here can only suppress those leaders who are on par with Crusher No. 3; they can't make them come up the mountain and fight to the death in an instant."

"In other words, in its view, those powerful tribal leaders could threaten it to some extent, and were not pushovers that could be easily manipulated."

"In summary……"

The little girl's two braids trembled, and she continued Carmen's words, "Bubble is more powerful than it!"

"Correct answer!"

"So, Your Majesty, let's hurry! Let's reach the Grand Canyon now and take the enemy general's head!"

"The bubble won't leave." But the little girl still shook her head.

"Uh"

Carmen felt she had made the crux of the matter clear, but she didn't know why her king still disagreed.

"Your Majesty, we can find more men if we lose them. You can certainly kill all the invaders if you stay here, but how long will that take?"

"Most importantly, this shadow space is vast. Even if that shadow dragon can only mobilize a portion of the shadow creatures, that's still a huge number."

“If we kill one batch and another comes, and these guys keep rushing up, Your Majesty will be stuck here!”

“If this goes on for too long, and the situation changes, the lord will inevitably notice something is wrong, and then we’ll be in big trouble,” Carmen said nervously.

Our biggest trump card is Bubble. If we don't take this opportunity to catch that Shadow Dragon off guard, it will be too late once it realizes something is wrong.

Once this lord unites with all the shadow creatures in this space to fight against the enemy, the chances of victory for our side are extremely slim.

"Bubble can't abandon the dogs, but Carmen, what you said also makes a lot of sense."

"Let Bubble think about it..."

The little girl lowered her head, racking her brains.

"..."

"........."
