The villain's way to tame the protagonist

Is there really no reason to help him?

This archduke, who had no interest in any status or power, still remembered the message that Ansel originally gave him, so he was also shocked by Faust's sudden appearance at the meeting.

He will return like the sun, and he is far stronger than you saw.

In the mind of Grand Duke Qingjin, Anser's words were so clear.

*

In the cracks of the world of confusion, there is an endless sea of ​​fire.

Perhaps it was not that exaggerated, or perhaps it was just an illusion caused by Ivora's control over space that had advanced to an unknown level, but the burning sensation that continued every minute and every second was absolutely real.

The extraordinary people who were traveling through the sea of ​​fire were all more or less thinking, if they did not take any protective measures and only relied on their own strength to travel through the sea of ​​fire, how long could they last?

Ten minutes, twenty minutes?

The intensity has dropped to a very low level, it is just an incomparable amount of feasting flames. If this is the purest and most genuine source flame... will it last ten seconds, twenty seconds, or just one encounter?

Thinking of this, the extraordinary people became more determined to kill Ivora.

As the nine-headed demon snake cruising in the front broke through the iron walls of the space maze one after another with an extremely brutal attitude like shattering a mirror, their heartbeats became more and more intense and fierce.

Killing a descendant of the Feasting Flame, and a true descendant of the Feasting Flame with the qualifications to be an emperor, is a great feat that no one has been able to accomplish in the long history of mankind's awakening from ignorance, from tribes to nations, from nations to dynasties, and then to the current empire!

Now, they have the opportunity to realize it, create the new order that the young Hydra talked about, and become a true legend!

"We are approaching the core of the maze."

At the front, the nine-headed demon snake that occupied almost all the vision of the extraordinary people suddenly spoke, and the overlapping voices echoed in the blood flames: "Be prepared, everyone, and remember to protect Lord Faust."

As the key figure in providing the barrier, Faust was protected in the middle by the extraordinary people, and at the same time created abyss materials that could resist blood flames for the twenty-nine people... Even for this legendary lord, the burden was quite heavy.

His expression was no longer as indifferent as usual, and even looked a little ferocious. The bulging blood vessels and meridians on his neck and face were flowing with a pitch-black color, which looked very scary.

The adventurers walking in the abyss are of course very concerned about Faust's safety. They all plan to discuss the power from the abyss with this legendary lord after the war.

As for what some people were thinking, Grand Duke Longyu, who was also covered by the essence of the abyss, knew it very well.

As they went deeper into the space, the extraordinary people gradually felt... that the intensity of this endless sea of ​​fire was rising at an extremely terrifying speed, and they still hadn't found Ivora under such circumstances, which made them more and more uneasy.

Grand Duke Long Yu also began to feel a heavy sense of doubt. Could it be that he was also planning to...

The nine-headed demon snake that broke through the blood flames and tore through the maze suddenly stopped at this moment, which caught the Zhuoduo extraordinary people off guard.

"Everyone."

It slowly turned its huge body that made the mountains look small, and its overlapping voices echoed in the sea of ​​fire:

"I have some very dangerous news."

"The maze... has been solved."

Anser was not deliberately calculating anything at this moment, nor was he lying, because he really realized that if they broke through one more barrier, they would reach the dilapidated palace where Ivora was.

But the problem is... he had clearly felt before that Ivora was still trying his best to manipulate the space, why did he give up now?

It's exactly the same as before.

The last time he broke through the layers of space barriers and reached the broken palace, Ansher also felt that Ivora did not stop him, and even seemed to welcome her arrival.

Killing Ivora is imperative, but this kind of anomaly... must also be guarded against.

The extraordinary people also realized the danger behind Anser's words, but at this point, it was impossible for anyone to retreat.

"Please everyone, be sure to be prepared."

Four living heads, four pairs of snake eyes flashing with dark light, took a deep look at the extraordinary people covered by the dark abyss matter, and then faced forward. The five sleeping heads suddenly woke up, and the nine heads were raised high, making a deafening roar in the sea of ​​fire.

Endless pitch-black aura quickly condensed on the bloody mouth of the nine-headed demon snake, destroying, annihilating, crushing, annihilating, impacting, and decaying... almost all the elements related to killing in this world were condensed on this huge ball of energy!

This is the complete opposite of the Burning Path of Feasting Flames, a power that is pure and reaches the pinnacle. Only Hydra can control it... drawing power from the abyss to draw upon all the elements in the world!

No one could survive this blow - this was the consensus of all the extraordinary people present.

But consensus is consensus, and no one would be stupid enough to watch Hydra gathering such power and then stand there stupidly to be hit by it. The lethality is one thing, and whether it can hit the target is another.

"..."

While everyone was paying attention to Hydra who was accumulating strength, no one noticed that the dark aura surging on Faust's face was skyrocketing. Not just his face, but his entire body like a tentacle. The blood vessels in the exposed skin were not even flowing with blood, but seemed to have been completely replaced by black matter, as if there were extremely thin black snakes crawling under his skin.

Extreme destruction and annihilation reached the limit under Hydra's instigation. Even the eyes of the nine-headed demon snake flashed with uncontrollable brutality and madness. When the ball of light that even the blood flame dared not invade at all, like a black sun rising, a pitch-black light cannon burst out from the black sun in an instant!

The sea of ​​​​flames that returned all things to their origin also succumbed to this absolute destruction. The last spatial barrier was easily crushed like thin paper. Under the shocked gaze of a group of extraordinary people, the ruined palace, the broken throne, and the existence wrapped in blood flames on the throne have appeared.

This destructive blow, accompanied by Hydra's roar, continued to blast directly towards the being on the throne:

"Kill her!"

At this moment, all the extraordinary people moved.

A group of people rushed towards Ivora on the Broken Throne without hesitation, each of them brewing a terrifying force that could easily destroy mountains and annihilate the city in the real world, but there was another group of people...

They actually went straight to kill Hydra!

No one reacted, even Ansher seemed not to react, but there was one person... who reacted.

A huge lightning strike that was about to hit the back of the nine-headed demon snake disappeared in an instant.

No, it didn’t disappear without a trace. Rather, it was… moved away and swallowed up by space!

"An...ser..."

This is a voice of resentment, hatred and anger.

But under these countless crazy emotions, the most obvious one is actually a crazy desire, a kind of... hope in death?

"Anser...Anser!"

On the Broken Throne, the Demon King who was being fought against by everyone, faced the destruction that was already before him, and a hysterical light burst out from his colorless eyes.

"help me!"

Chapter 8: The Princess About to Die (K)

Both the defection attack on Anser and Ivola’s hysterical “Save me” happened in an instant.

The extraordinary people who had attacked Ivora were all stunned. Even if they had experienced the biggest storms, their minds couldn't come to their senses at this moment.

The deadly black light instantly engulfed Ivora on the throne and shot straight into the deeper blood flames, with no end in sight.

Under this terrifying killing move that could easily annihilate any existence below the sixth level, all objects in the ruined palace that were touched by the black light evaporated as if they did not exist.

But only... the broken throne and Ivora, who was half flesh and half bones on the throne, were still intact.

Click.

Just when the extraordinary people had not yet reacted to the shocking change and were surprised why Ivola was not hurt at all, the throne under her, which was already in tatters, suddenly cracked into fine lines.

Click, click, click—

Amid the endless cracking sounds, the shattered throne once again shattered into several pieces of gold and iron, but it did not completely collapse. It looked like nothing had happened, but the armrests, backrest, and Ivora's body of the throne suddenly emitted a golden light.

A faint golden light shone on Ivola's wrists, ankles, waist, and neck. No matter how you looked at it, it looked like... shackles?

"Anser, save—"

Ivola wanted to scream hysterically, but the shackles that bound her suddenly glowed golden. Looking closely, it seemed that these shackles not only bound Ivola, but also took root in her flesh, as if they were constantly... absorbing her strength?

The moment the golden light burst forth, the light in Ivora's eyes disappeared, his head drooped, and he fell sideways on the throne like a puppet with its strings cut.

The situation at this moment... is no longer as united as it was at the beginning.

The nine-headed demon snake turned its body that covered the sky and the sun, and its snake eyes, which exuded a tyrannical aura, stared at the extraordinary people gathered in the distance.

"Everyone..."

A deep, overlapping voice echoed in the bloody flames: "I don't think that the plan to kill Ivora included that step."

The Grand Duke of Dragon Language, who was in doubt because Ivora had rescued Anser, saw Ivora suddenly faint, and quickly reacted and sneered:

"I don't think so either. There was a part where Ivora asked you for help. She asked you to save him. Hydra... So you wanted to sacrifice us to help her out of trouble?"

It is extremely easy to put a accusation on someone. Even though he doesn't know what Ivora is crazy about, Grand Duke Dragon knows that this is a great opportunity that cannot be missed!

The first thing Ivora said when she opened her mouth was nothing but asking Hydra for help... That extremely arrogant princess would never think of creating internal strife in this way. She really wanted Anser to save her. The other extraordinary people were definitely aware of this.

There are not many people who are likely to stand on Anser's side. Who would still support him in this situation?

"It's not me who should be explaining, Hydra."

The body shape of the Grand Duke of Dragon Language also gradually changed. A pair of huge brown wings swelled out from his waist. His eyes turned into dragon pupils. His face was covered with dense scales. His voice became deeper and deeper: "What's more, neither you nor Ivora should exist. For the sake of this continent, for the sake of the empire... there should be no so-called God seeds in this world!"

If Anser can be "lofty-sounding", then so can he. Olementine is confident that his words are more convincing than Anser's so-called "new order", or in other words... the new order without the Old Gods is the real new order!

"I see……"

The huge nine-headed demon snake whispered like this, but it did not show much anger, and even its body shrank back to a human form.

No one noticed that the painful expression on Faust's face, who was hiding in the crowd, had eased a lot.

The dark liquid covered Anser's tall body and turned into a luxurious black dress. Hydra gently stroked his cane and sighed, "I thought that Lord Longyu would not be so short-sighted. Ambition and greed should be put into practice after Ivora's death."

Grand Duke Dragon Language originally thought so. After seeing the attack that Anser had concentrated on, he didn't think at all that Ivora could be hit again, and with other extraordinary people launching their killing moves at once, he would have any chance of survival.

If there was, he would at least be half dead, and what he had to do at this time was naturally to attack Anser with all his strength.

Anyway, if Ivora hadn't died, her first reaction would definitely be to kill Ansher first. When attacked from both sides, Hydra would definitely suffer heavy losses. When other extraordinary people saw the situation, they would never stand on Hydra's side.

But the turn of events was beyond everyone's expectations - in that devastating blow, Ivora was unharmed and even had a hand to help Anser; the extraordinary people who were originally following closely were stunned by this situation and did not take action; Olementine's backstab failed directly because of Ivora's intervention.

However, although it failed to directly inflict heavy damage on both sides, the situation was still in Olementine's favor. Ivora's cry of "Save me" was undoubtedly a death sentence for Anser.

"You still have a chance, Lord Longyu."

Anser said calmly: "Let's deal with Ivora first, and then put an end to your ambition after the current disaster is over."

boom!

The roaring thunder that bombarded Anser replaced the response of the Grand Duke of Dragon Language.

Olementin's entire body was flashing with violent lightning. He had already shaken off all of the abyssal matter that Faust had attached to his body, and was using his own ether and strength to fight against the burning of the Feasting Flame.

Of course he knew that without Anser, it would be very likely that he would not be able to kill Ivora, but he was still unwilling to cooperate with Anser - the reason was very simple, he did not trust Anser at all.

Grand Duke Dragon Tongue believed that if he fought alongside Anser for even one second, he would surely die in the next.

"Olementine! What are you doing!?"

Among the first group of extraordinary people who rushed forward to launch a killing attack on Ivora, someone was furious. A shield appeared in front of Anser, blocking all the thunder from Grand Duke Dragon Language. The scattered lightning shot in the sea of ​​fire, demonstrating the ferocious power of the top fifth-level extraordinary person.

"…Paracelsus, you ask me what I am doing? I am saving all of us, taking back the world that rightfully belongs to us."

Time was passing by every second. Without Faust's abyss material covering him, every extra second staying in this sea of ​​fire was a huge danger. Olementine did not intend to waste time or spend his time on these people who were still willing to stand on Hydra's side.

"Together we can kill him, and of course... we can kill Ivora!"

Grand Duke Dragon Language flapped his wings, and he, surrounded by lightning, instantly turned into a ray of lightning and blasted directly towards Anther's face. His dragon claws, filled with violent thunder, swung at the shield in front of Anther.

At the same time, the iron-colored beam of light carried an aura of annihilation that was extremely similar to the black death just now. The ice-blue arrow seemed to cross time and space and appeared directly between Ansel's eyebrows. The energy wave that turned into a beast shape directly vibrated and tore the soul apart when it roared. The berserker who rushed over wielding a giant blade swept up a huge wave of power that even the endless blood flames temporarily retreated.

Seven people attacked Anser at the same time. The surging ether and terrifying power shook the maze filled with blood flames, giving people the illusion that the space was about to collapse.

Every fifth-level extraordinary person here is absolutely top-notch. Even if there are differences among them, if they want to decide life and death, they must go through a hard battle. And when they join forces, the killing power they unleash is more than just a simple addition.

But…young Hydra didn’t face everything alone.

The moment he raised his hand and grasped the arrow that tore through time and space, a black wave surged out from his side and collided with the iron-colored light column that was bombarding him. If the violent aftermath had not been suppressed by the burning of the Feast Flame, it would undoubtedly have directly annihilated a mountain in the outside world!

The extraordinary beings from the Hall of the End, who were pursuing the abyss, stood on Anther's side without hesitation, and a extraordinary being in a white robe silently waved his staff, and the pure white light shield enveloped Hydra. When the giant berserker slashed the giant blade at Anther, the light shield instantly burst out with a fierce light like lightning, steadily blocking it.

The beast-shaped energy bombardment that directly attacked the soul was also cut off by a grating, and the roar that shocked the soul was weakened halfway and could hardly take effect.

There were more attacks that intertwined and roared, bombarding Anther with extremely terrifying damage, but most of them were blocked by the bombardment, and Anther easily defended against the remaining few attacks.

The first round of fighting lasted only a moment, but Grand Duke Longyu's face was already extremely ugly. His lightning, which was entangled with the element of destruction, only blasted a crack on the shield summoned by Pala, and he had to withdraw immediately.

It shouldn’t be…it shouldn’t be!

There are so many people standing on Hydra's side. Don't they know that... killing this monster is the only thing that will truly benefit all of us!

It's not surprising that the crazy people in the Hall of the End only want to explore the abyss, but why would Paracelsus work for Hydra? Just because he is Flamel's student? The white-robed cardinal of the Church of the Holy Alliance has no reason to take action! These guys...what's going on!

In fact, there were not many people on Anser's side. There were less than ten people who directly helped or provided support secretly, less than one third of the total.

But this number has exceeded Olementine's expectations.
