Poverty makes me capable of anything.

Sheila, at level 86, didn't cause Anran much trouble, but this masked man could take on two mechs at once.

After withstanding a few blows, he calmly used the [Void Evil Summoning Card] the instant the energy greatsword swept away its target.

A large, dark hole suddenly appeared in the calm sky.

An Ran severed Sheila's tentacles, which were attempting to launch a sneak attack, with a single sword stroke. Just then, a vine-like evil vine emerged from the large hole.

"..."

The masked man stared in astonishment at this scene that defied his understanding.

"Hit her!"

Anran commanded the evil vines to launch an attack on Sheila.

Although it can't hold them off for long, it's enough.

Buy some time!

The Silver Moon Knight's power meter readings surged, his body radiating a purple glow of ethereal power. Wielding twin swords, he let out a loud shout and charged toward the masked man.

The surging energy collided continuously in the air.

Although the masked man seemed to easily deflect An Ran's attacks time and time again, the damage numbers that floated out were not fake. However, it was very difficult to hit him, and his health regeneration speed was too fast.

An Ran didn't lose any health, but the mech's armor was slowly decreasing, and the stun value accumulated with each collision made it difficult for An Ran to fully concentrate.

"Go away!"

He wielded his energy weapon again and again, as time ticked by second by second.

An Ran's expression changed drastically when she noticed the dark clouds suddenly appearing overhead.

It's a Void Demon!

……

Ding!

The crisp sound indicated that Ella and Su Tingxue had arrived outside the dark room.

One by one, the closed doors opened, revealing five metal tablets in the room.

"Next, we just need to activate the seals on these five steles to begin purifying the overflowing void energy," Tan Tang III said respectfully.

"Then we'll..."

Su Tingxue turned around and found Ella staring intently at the screen next to her.

The image displayed showed a peaceful battle scene.

Kaka-

Clench your little fists.

Ella looked around and said, "No, we can't let Anran be up there alone!"

She turned and was about to run outside.

"Wait—" Su Tingxue stretched out her hand, "Rushing out like this won't do any good."

That's enough, hurry up and start the device.

Ella stopped and looked at Su Tingxue solemnly: "I'm leaving this place to you!"

Then Ella suddenly hugged the metal monument next to the mecha, which was many times larger than her, and bit it hard.

"you……"

Snap—

Ella chewed a couple of times and then began to eat the monument at an astonishing speed.

"..."

Chapter 38 Song of the Old World (Part 4)

How long would it take an average adult to eat a 10x longer Big Mac hamburger?

Five minutes?

Ten minutes?

Thirty minutes?

Or was it because there was too much food and they couldn't finish it all?

As a big eater, Su Tingxue said she could devour the hamburger in no time.

After all, she's not an ordinary person.

But what if a giant hamburger, more than 30 times her own height, was placed in front of her and she had to eat it?

No, I won't.

This challenge is too brutal; just imagining it, let alone eating it, is enough to make one feel hopeless.

What's more, what's in front of Ella isn't a hamburger that big, but a metal monument that big!

Oh my god!

Su Tingxue was stunned, her whole body dazed and confused. She froze, unable to make an exaggerated expression, and just stared blankly at Ella's every move.

How can a person eat metal?

How can a person bite metal like a cream cake?

How can a person eat so fast?

It was as if Ella was holding a sharp sword and slicing off a section of the metal monument with one stroke.

The metal monument is shrinking at a visible rate.

Ella is growing at a rate visible to the naked eye.

So tiny!

Big big!

In reality, something even more astonishing was happening where Su Tingxue couldn't see.

The metal monument, which had withstood a massive blow from the Nightbringer without showing any flaws, melted at the point where Ella's hands touched it.

It looks like she's eating, but Ella is actually drinking.

Just like drinking an ice-cold Sprite on a hot day, you gulp it down in one go, feeling refreshed and exhilarated.

Once the metal enters Ella's body, it is incorporated into the operating mechanism of the ancient essence, either being converted into stored energy or becoming part of Ella's body.

Metabolism is running at lightning speed!

If Ella hadn't absorbed the nutrients so quickly, her body wouldn't have grown so much.

Are you scared of Ella, who's ten meters tall?

Gollum—

Ella swallowed the last piece of the metal tablet. Amid Su Tingxue's horrified gaze and Tan Tang III's calm demeanor, Ella turned and left the darkroom.

Mecha?

I don't want that kind of thing anymore; I'm not as good as myself!

boom!

Although she couldn't fly, Ella bent her knees and jumped to the top of the sky.

It's like that bald guy who can fly back to Earth from the moon with a single kick.

Ella now feels that she is filled with endless power.

He's become so arrogant!

……

"What, what exactly is going on?"

Watching Ella disappear into the dark room, Su Tingxue quickly asked Tan Tang III, who remained completely calm.

"This is top-secret information. Please do not inquire further." Tan Tang III refused Su Tingxue's question without any politeness.

It was cold and icy.

"..."

Where did that kind and friendly demeanor go?

"I suggest you activate the backup sealing engraving as soon as possible to begin purifying the void energy," Tan Tang III continued.

"..."

Su Tingxue felt like her head was about to explode.

What exactly is Ella?

However, the AI's suggestion in front of us is indeed correct.

The most urgent task is to purify the void energy as soon as possible.

Suppressing her inner turmoil, she took a deep breath and asked, "What should I do?"

"Please watch the demonstration video and be sure to follow the instructions."

Su Tingxue looked at the pop-up image and carefully activated the device on the metal monument.

One, two, ..., five.

After the metal tablets formed a circle, countless beams of light appeared around Su Tingxue. The intense energy impact caused her to stumble and fall to the ground, feeling as if she were being weighed down by a thousand pounds, and she couldn't even speak.

What the hell is this?

Su Tingxue was anxious and wanted to stand up as soon as possible, but she failed time and time again. Not to mention raising her hand, even the air around her seemed to become sticky.

What's going on outside right now?

The thought flashed through Su Tingxue's mind.
