Chapter 1378 - 466: Death of the Pope
Chapter 1378: Chapter 466: Death of the Pope
At this moment, the ’Red Queen’ Menia finally turned her attention to Rein.
Because she had accompanied the Red Dragon King Straz, His Majesty, to Ferdinand City to participate in the battle not long ago, and then the recent upheaval occurred. Although the arrival of the Void Mother Tree Ganisir was interrupted, the Red Dragon King was severely injured and left, and she herself was also not lightly injured.
It wasn’t until the Destroyer Demon Statue charged to the front of the Mother Tree Ganisir that Menia realized the combat power of this super giant demon statue was actually at the Epic level, which caught her additional attention.
"Does the Empire have this type of demon statue?"
"Huh? This young man..."
Seeing Rein ejecting out of the Destroyer Demon Statue, Menia felt a sense of familiarity, as if she had seen him somewhere before.
Beside her, Menia’s dragon companion — the Red Dragon Tasa — struggled to lift its head, its large vertical pupils also curiously looking at Rein’s figure, but Tasa quickly realized something.
"Menia, this is Rein, that young man from Meister..."
"What! It’s him?!"
"How is that possible?"
Menia’s beautiful eyes widened, staring blankly at Rein, unable to understand for a moment...
"Previously, his strength was merely... but now, he has become a Dawn Wizard?" Menia murmured to herself.
"Yes, but it is indeed that young man."
"Have you forgotten? I gave him a Dragon Scale."
Tasa’s dragon eyes also flickered, continually sizing up Rein.
What intrigued her even more was the special bloodline aura that only dragons could perceive, faintly emitted by the other party.
Why does it smell more pure than Menia’s bloodline?
...
However, as the dust in the field gradually dispersed, neither the man nor the dragon discussed Rein any longer. Instead, they focused intently on the central area of the field—the great enemy!
On the golden giant tree, which was several hundred meters tall, there was a massive charred indentation with a diameter of several ten meters. If the power had been a bit greater, the thick trunk might have been blown through.
Even though the injury was so severe, the golden halo around the wound grew more intense. A continuous stream of golden light flowed from other parts of the giant tree’s body, converging at the wound.
Apparently, the Void Mother Tree Ganisir was trying to mend its body and heal the wound.
However, such a massive wound, even with abundant energy, could not possibly heal quickly.
Moreover, as the golden domain of the Void Mother Tree Ganisir shrank by half, the Empire’s strongmen present all sensed a significant decrease in the other party’s power level.
Approximately from the Epic Peak, it fell to the Epic Late Stage level.
This brought joy to Luther, Lambert, Moria, and other legendary strongmen of the Empire, boosting their morale and intensifying all kinds of witchcraft, arrows, and throwing spears, making their long-range attacks more concentrated.
Meanwhile, the Pope Manne of the Mother Tree Sect and the remaining followers looked despondent at this scene.
Clearly, they found it hard to accept the result before them!
"No! We haven’t failed yet!"
"As long as we can escort my master to retreat, there is still hope!"
...
At this moment, a sudden change occurred at the base of the Mother Tree!
"Puchi! Puchi!"
Suddenly, many light golden roots burst from the ground, entangling hundreds of elves who had not yet completely left the core area.
Once these roots wrapped around the elves, numerous spikes suddenly emerged, quickly piercing the bodies of these elves who were barely alive after two explosions. These spikes, like straws, began voraciously sucking the elves’ blood and various bodily fluids as soon as they pierced in.
In just a few seconds, the elves that were pierced seemed to have their bones dissolved away, their entire bodily essences absorbed, leaving only a thin layer of skin drifting away in the wind.
With the death of over a hundred elves, the healing speed of the golden giant tree’s wound greatly increased. The enormous indentation, originally with a diameter of over twenty or thirty meters, now shrank to a diameter of merely ten meters.
Reginald instantly understood the reason for this.
Because the elves and the original Elf Mother Tree Andaril could be considered as one.
And now that the Void Mother Tree Ganisir occupied Andaril’s body, it could naturally restore the body that originally belonged to Andaril by devouring elves.
"Quick! Attack those roots emerging from the ground!" Reginald immediately reminded.
"Have the elves retreat quickly!"
"The farther away, the better!"
....
The Empire’s strongmen all took action, either aiding the elves nearby or using flying mounts to attack the roots as much as possible.
Even Lambert and Moria, who were previously responsible for the airship’s defense, now disembarked from the two airships from the rear to join in the assault on the Mother Tree’s roots.
After all, the hard-won advantageous situation must not be overturned by the other side.
Lothar did not choose to attack the Void Mother Tree but exchanged positions with Reginald.
He took charge of restraining the Mother Tree Sect’s Pope Manne, while Reginald unleashed witchcraft to launch a long-distance attack on the Void Mother Tree Ganisir.
Because even for Lothar, who holds the title ’Emperor Barrier’, engaging in close combat with the Void Mother Tree, towering several hundred meters, was still too dangerous.
But if it was merely a matter of restraining the Pope Manne of the Mother Tree Sect, that was much easier.
Once Reginald disengaged from his entanglement with Manne, he immediately began chanting loudly.
