Chapter 705: Left None Alive
Chapter 705: Left None Alive
"What happened? Is there anything left after that great earthquake?" Sylvia didn\'t know what they were still waiting for. She tried to check the crater\'s centre with her magic vision, but she couldn\'t find anything meaningful.
"Mm, there are two accursed creatures that have survived. They are liquifying their presence and are heading to the surface. Let\'s expect two super black slimes." Elysia pointed her palm towards the center of the crater.
"Uhm... If so, are we the ones who will handle those two slimes, master? Wouldn\'t it be great if we left the rest for the fairies to handle? We can get them involved and do something for us." Vanessa raised her hand to propose.
"Hmm, we can do that, actually. It\'s just two liquid monsters at Spirit-level only." Elena replied with a subtle nod. She then asked Nell to take care of the rest. "Little one, please do something."
"Wait, are you asking me to exterminate those two monsters just by myself?" Nell pointed her finger at her face, somewhat surprised.
"Are you going to do that? I\'m not asking you to fight, though? Tell the Fairy Empress to send her elite troops to exterminate the two surviving monsters." Elena smiled faintly.
"O-oh, okay." Nell turned around and stared straight at the Fairy Empress Yralisaa to send out telepathy. \'Fairy Empress Yralissa, almost all the monsters in the underground sealed area, have been exterminated. However, two liquid monsters managed to survive their doom. Show us your troop\'s power and exterminate those weak monsters.\'
\'Two weak liquid monsters? All right.\' Yralisaa returned to her consciousness and agreed without hesitation. She immediately ordered her entire army to go to the giant crater to fight.
"These are liquid creatures immune to both magic and physical attacks. What are they going to do to eliminate that monster?" Yuuki asked in wonder. Everyone would probably find such an opponent to be extremely troublesome.
"Elemental reaction will do an effective trick." Elysia stated the obvious casually.
"Oh~ How could I forget it? We just witnessed that a few days ago." Yuuki slapped her forehead lightly.
The fairies had just arrived around the huge crater, and two puddles of ink suddenly shot out of the ground.
"All troops, prepare for battle. Our opponents are the two liquid creatures. Magic and physical attacks may not be effective. Get in position. Team Earth and Team Ice, go and seal their movements. Activate the anti-curse mechanism!" Yralissa gave her command from the backline.
"Yes, Her Majesty Empress!" Dozens of fairies immediately acted as ordered.
The two puddles of ink quickly formed two large black spherical entities with several tentacles on their backs. Yet, the ground suddenly hardened due to the magic from the surrounding fairies.
The fairies no longer used magic when the two tentacle slimes were about to absorb their magic. They had been trained to only use magic for less than a second for this operation.
Then, a barrage of huge ice spikes fell from the sky and rained down on the two slimes. The attack didn\'t do any damage, but the ink tentacle slimes movement became extremely slow.
"Good. Team Earth, set up an eruption tube for those two monsters. We\'ll burn them into ashes with a combination elemental attack without magic!" Yralissa gave her follow-up instructions with an exclamation.
"Ha!" Dozens of fairies raised their hands up and punched the air towards the front. A mound of rocky soil rose up and sped up to a point.
The two ink tentacle slimes were dragged to a point, and the mound of stone soil immediately rose up to form a tube. The six-meter tall tube fairies were fortified with another layer of rocky ground to ensure those slimes did not escape easily.
The fairies moved quickly and only maintained their magic so briefly to avoid having their magic absorbed by their opponents.
At that moment, a prototype mini volcano was created in the center of the huge crater. Dozens of fairies on the other team then received orders from the Fairy Empress.
Some fairies then throw red, purple, black, and blue crystals into the mini-volcano pit. After that, they sprinkled some powder and fled away from the hole as if their lives were at stake.
The ground shook slightly, and then a loud noise rumbled from within the mini volcano.
*Boom!*
The mini-volcano erupted and spewed a lot of lava. A red and blue flame clad in a fierce thunderstorm rose several tens of meters to the sky.
"Woah, they created a fireworks volcano? That looks quite beautiful and interesting." Sylvia clasped her hands with sparkling eyes.
"But, the booming sound is very noisy and disturbing." Evelyn covered her ears in panic. She was worried that her eardrums would burst as the sound of explosions continued to boom.
Ella also covered her ears because of the same concern. Yuuki and Vanessa followed shortly after.
Elysia swung her hand and erected a barrier to block out the thunderous sound of the explosion and the thunderstorm hellfire.
*Rumble*
The rumbling sound of the mini-volcano eruption subsided gradually. However, super-hot red lava was still overflowing from the volcano pit.
"Did it work?" Yralissa asked in wonder. She had high hopes that the method would effectively exterminate the two creatures, but the worst was still there.
\'Fairy Empress Yralissa. The two monsters were truly unique and troublesome. Although they were not very strong, they were extremely difficult to destroy. They merged into a bigger creature and are hiding at the bottom of your mini volcano.\' The Goddess of Light\'s voice sounded clear in Yralisaa\'s mind.
The Fairy Empress became tense instantly. Suppose magic, physical attacks, and the combination of elemental reactions were ineffective. What should she do to exterminate that troublesome unique monster?
"Let me handle it. I can eradicate that black ink liquid creature easily." Oceanid volunteered and walked away.
"Be careful with contamination. That is your biggest risk." Nell just gave a reminder.
"I know my weakness better than anyone. If the worst happens, I still have Elysia, and the Goddess of Light will remove the contamination." Oceanid jumped off Gio\'s back and flew near the mini-volcano.
"Is that okay?" Rhea whispered and covered her mouth.
"He\'ll be fine. He seems to have a particular grudge against liquid-type accursed creatures like that black ink tentacle slime. And also, it\'s just one opponent." Elysia replied with a soft whisper.
"Retreat. I will exterminate the liquid monster with my divine power." Oceanid ordered the fairies to leave with a hand gesture.
"..." Yralissa was silent, but she flew backwards. The fairies around her also followed her to retreat without uttering a single word.
Oceanid then took out a mini metal ball from inside his body and threw it into the mini volcano\'s pit.
The vortex occurred in the superheated magma as if it was being stirred by something unknown. Lava slowly flowed out, but it instantly solidified into stone. The magma inside the mini volcano hardened into reddish-black rock quickly.
After that, Oceanid took out his divine trident from within his body. He swung it a few times to slash through the empty air. Still, the mini volcano suddenly split into hundreds of pieces before exploding into rubble.
A puff of black fog oozed out from the remnants of the mini-volcano. Seeing that, Oceanid frowned and immediately flew backwards as fast as lightning. He returned to the earth dragon\'s back and folded his arms with a satisfied hum. "They have perished. Please remove that curse energy, Elysia."
"Okay." Elysia decided to burn that curse energy into nothingness. She moved her finger in a circular motion. The black fog that was charging closer gradually disappeared until it completely disappeared.
"The sealed area in this spot has been cleared. We left no accursed creatures alive. Now is the time for us to visit the capital forest city to meet Celes. Madam, do you want to see Celes and Hea?" Elysia asked Lifa politely. She almost mentioned Lifa\'s name, but she didn\'t let it slip her mouth.
"Celes and Hea? Who?" Lifa tilted her head slightly. She didn\'t immediately understand who Elysia had just mentioned.
"The Celestial Tree and Heavenly Tree. They\'re the sacred trees of the Fairy Continent and the Elven Continent. Have you forgotten them? You know… They once told me that they hoped to meet you in their lifetime. They were saddened by the fall of the Tree of Life, and they were so happy when we told them you were actually still alive." Elysia grasped her hand and told the situation with a gentle smile.
"Oh, it\'s those sweet children. I didn\'t expect you to give them nicknames. Well, let\'s meet Celes and Hea. They are responsible children..." Lifa muttered under her breath and looked into the distance, to the northwest, where Capital Forest City was located.
Elysia asked Gio to transform into a smaller form. After that, they immediately left the vicinity in invisibility without waiting for Yralissa to speak.
"Ah, they just left. Even though I still want to talk to them..." Yralissa stretched her hand forward as if about to reach something, but the divine group had already disappeared somewhere.
"Everyone, we return to the city. The battle here is over. It was an easy victory due to the involvement of the gods." Yralissa spoke in a noble and neutral tone.
"O-oh! Long live Her Majesty Empress! Long live the Gods and Goddesses!" The fairies cheered to celebrate the destruction of a sealed area in this place.
Yralissa looked at the giant crater and the tens of kilometers of ravaged land once more. She sighed and flew back to Zhadphis Woodland with her entire troops.
