Chapter 702: Earth Dragon Shook the Ground (1)
Elysia\'s group headed straight for the Fairy Palace in Zhadphis Woodland. Their arrival was unknown to anyone, and Nell immediately flew into a study room to meet the Fairy Empress.
"It looks like you\'re under a lot of stress, Fairy Empress Yralissa Quifiel." Nell greeted and broke the silence.
"Eh?" Yralissa flinched slightly. Someone entered her study room without any prior notice. She didn\'t even sense it before the other party decided to speak.
When she lifted her head to see who was coming, she was pleasantly surprised to realize the angel-like fairy was there. She immediately got up from her desk and flew closer to her visitor. "You have finally come back here, the Goddess of Blessings. Thank you for coming. I, no, we desperately need your presence and help!"
After saying that, Yralissa noticed the presence of a group of people who had just entered the room. The visitor turned out to be not only the Goddess of Blessings but several other divine beings!
"Is this what they call \'every problem always has a solution?\'" Yralissa felt a bubble of joy and relief welling up in her heart. She was already feeling quite depressed because of the threat of the sealed area. Still, now everything would be okay because divine help had arrived.
"Hum, your anxiety comes for a reason. Can you collaborate on what has happened on this continent since my last visit? I wonder why my golden talisman didn\'t get any warning regarding the collapse of the sealed area here?" Nell rechecked her golden talisman, and still, nothing had changed regarding Fairy Continent\'s markers.
"It might be related to the disturbance from the energy dust surrounding the Fairy Continent and Elven Continent. Moreover, an anomaly arose during the collapse of a sealed area around Attlester Hillside." Yralissa blinked her eyes in surprise. She didn\'t know what had happened, but it seemed that anomaly was why divine help was so late.
"Three days ago, huh... Was the one you were talking about a pitch-black area scorched by black flames at the foothills of the southern region? Who is in charge of fighting there?" Elena walked over and looked at Yralissa as if she was inspecting something.
"Ah, um, that\'s the place. It\'s under Emperor Flix Tulipglimmer\'s territory. A great battle broke out there. Although the cursed monsters that came from there were weak, their curses disrupted the energy fluctuations in the southern region. Hundreds of brave fairies were killed. on the battlefield." Yralisa nodded in confirmation.
"Oh, so it\'s like that... However, why are there only two anti-curse mechanisms when you know the curse that came beyond expectations? What about the spare items we gave out for an unexpected emergency?" Elena tilted her head slightly. Even though she knew Yralissa wasn\'t entirely responsible, she still asked for clarity.
"As for that, I don\'t really understand because I\'m only responsible for my territory and send reinforcements to other regions if it\'s needed. Flix Tulipglimmer has a backup anti-curse mechanism, and I don\'t know why he doesn\'t use it." Yralissa put her hand to her chin and shook her head.
"I understand. So, has only one sealed area collapsed on this continent?" Elena nodded slightly.
"Yes, that\'s only one. However, around thirty kilometers from here, a sealed area on the plain slope is already showing some signs of collapse. The morale of the fairies is dropping due to the bitter battle in the south three days ago. The bad news has spread despite the efforts of the other higher-ups and me to seal the information." Yralissa clasped her hands anxiously.
"You feel pressured because the sealed area in question is quite close to Zhadphis Woodland and will collapse soon?" Nell could understand the reason before concluding this Fairy Empress situation.
"That\'s one of the main factors of my anxiety. I only have one anti-curse mechanism in reserve. I don\'t know what to do other than jump in and send my imperial troops to protect our capital forest city." Yralissa heaved a subtle sigh. She then looked at everyone in front of her with a solemn expression. "If it\'s possible, I hope you can help us to protect this forest city."
"That is an easy thing. You need to send your imperial troops now, and you will go there with us. Your presence on the battlefield can boost the morale of the fairies easily. We also need to talk about some things on the way there." Nell gave her instructions clearly.
"All right! I will send my imperial troops now. Please wait for me for a moment." Yralissa then excused herself and flew out of the room.
"Wow, so it\'s the fairies... They look tiny and fragile, but all of them are actually strong." Evelyn looked out the window. She could see hundreds of fairies clad in light armor wandering around the palace.
"Ah, they can fly freely without using magic. The huge tree in the middle of the city is a beautiful and shady sacred tree." Ella also looked out the window in admiration.
"She is Celes. Her avatar is an adorable little one. We will meet her after helping the Fairy Empress. Ah, come to think of it. The Goddess of Blessings looks like an angel version of a fairy, right?" Elysia put her hands together.
"Hum, you are now saying that, master. Why would a divine fairy become a Human Goddess? Is the Goddess of Blessings actually the Fairy Goddess too?" Yuuki glanced briefly at the nearby floating little Goddess and then looked at Elysia curiously.
"I\'m a human if you really want to know. Fairies and elves used to be under the auspices of the Tree of Life, but something happened, and her daughter took her place. Please don\'t ask me why I look like a fairy." Nell responded casually, but she used that to end the conversation. She didn\'t want to talk about it to the other party.
"O-ooh~" Yuuki dropped her fist onto her open palm in understanding.
Elysia and her friends then chatted lightly about the fairies until Yralissa returned to the room, fully prepared to go into battle.
"Eight hundred of my elite imperial troops are ready to go with us to the battlefield on the plain slope. Can we go now?" Yralissa felt genuinely excited right now. It was as if the pressure and worry had never been there before. She no longer needed to think of a solution or anything anymore because divine help was here.
"Let\'s go. We will follow behind your troops. You can meet us again when we get to the location." Elena nodded slightly and invited everyone to leave.
Yralissa didn\'t mind that. She went to lead her elite imperial troops to head southeast. Elysia\'s group followed closely behind in invisibility.
"This reminds me of the difficulties in communicating with others. Also, we need more anti-curse mechanisms to deal with the unexpected. Is there a way to solve that first problem? With advanced dwarven technology, devil\'s innovative, sophisticated devices, and human\'s breakthrough equipment... is it possible to establish a barrier-free connection like the internet with satellite?" Elysia wondered while patting her chin.
"In my opinion, the devil\'s communication system is the most advanced. Devil Emperor Dylan may have thought about it before, but this is a matter of trust, Ely. Other races will be wary and reluctant to let devils into their territory for such spy-like technology." Elena shook her head as if she knew what would happen.
"I see... Maybe, we can buy some military-grade satellites and equipment on Earth? Maybe, SpaceX can help us with it?" Elysia was reminded of a leading, sophisticated company in the related field.
"Let\'s think about that later, Ely. We need a huge amount of money for that too." Elena smiled in amusement. She didn\'t want to think about it that far because there was something they needed to deal with in their current situation.
"You need a lot of money to buy something, Ely? I don\'t know what you want to buy, but I\'m wealthy just so you know." Sylvia scratched her head in confusion about what Elysia was talking about. Even so, that did not reduce her intention to volunteer.
"Hehe, worry not, Sylvi. I was just muttering and wondering. By the way... Are we going to ask Gio to tackle the sealed area on the Plain Slope?" Elysia waved her hand in front of her face with a small laugh. She immediately changed the topic while pointing her palm at Gio.
"Hmm." Gio didn\'t know what everyone was talking about, but he felt honored to be specially mentioned by his master.
"Yup, we will ask Gio for help with this as a test of the sealed areas that haven\'t collapsed. We\'ll all be in charge of making sure Gio isn\'t contaminated with curse energy, and he\'s allowed to go on a rampage destroying all the monsters under the ground. Let\'s see if his earth element power does. can eradicate those monsters effectively or not." Elena nodded in confirmation. She was the one who proposed that method.
"Regarding that, I beg you to call my mother here first to hear her opinion first. Gio is like her child too, after all." Rhea fiddled with her fingers and decided to speak. She had no doubts and worries because Elysia and Elena could eradicate those energy curses, but this was a matter of heart and respect.
"Very well." Elena didn\'t mind and asked Elysia to open the Nature Realm portal.
She then asked Lifa to join them in the outside world before she shared some information regarding what had just happened and what they would do.
"I see. That sounds fun. Let\'s do it~ Isn\'t that good for you, Gio. You\'ll be the main character in this party, fufu..." Lifa covered her mouth and waved her hand at Gio.
