BXBX NOVEL Chapter 797 Unexpected Violent Ambush (2)
*Rumble!*
Vanessa wrapped herself in a layer of wind and lightning to create an elemental reaction. She flopped backwards, barely avoiding her opponent’s grip on her neck.
“Hou, lightning and wind to distract. Not bad, but you won’t be so lucky anymore.” The Fire Moth Deity narrowed his fiery red eyes at the golden barrier around the executioner. His fire couldn’t penetrate that protective magic. “I shall destroy it first.”
“Commerge!” Nell combined dozens of her active blessing magics into a golden barrier attached to Vanessa, Wendy, and herself.
This way, they would be fine even if burned in blazing fire with extreme heat.
*Bam!* *Rumble!*
The Fire Moth Deity threw a fire spear into his opponent’s head, creating a massive explosion. However, it was not enough to destroy his opponent’s defense.
Vanessa crossed her arms to protect herself. She was pushed back a few centimeters due to the impact. She could feel the power and defense within her had increased dramatically, thanks to her multiple blessings.
*Bam* *Bam* *Bam* *Bang*
The Fire Moth Deity unleashed several deadly attacks, then dashed off to deliver a barrage of fatal blows to his opponent from zero range, causing explosions.
Unfortunately, none of his attacks managed to injure his opponent.
‘What is going on?’ Vanessa was taken aback. She realized this Fire Moth Deity was beating her up. Still, she didn’t feel anything, not even the slightest touch.
‘It’s okay. You won’t get hurt. Our current opponent is one step ahead of our plans. However, I will take over from here. This deity is my opponent to beat.’ Nell wiped her non-existent sweat as she finished making sure Vanessa was safe.
She then patted Vanessa and stepped out of the hood to confront the Fire Moth Deity.
“All right…” Vanessa lowered her hand, staring intently into her opponent’s eyes. Her protection was impenetrable for a short time. She couldn’t help but grin disdainfully from behind her mask. She could see her opponent’s confidence and arrogance gradually fading away.
“Standing here, I realize… you can’t beat her up, not even lay a slightest touch~ Hahaha, weak! Your fire not even hot enough to make water boil.” Wendy laughed mockingly from Vanessa’s shoulder. At this moment, she was bathing in a scorching fire, but she couldn’t even feel any significant heat.
“Impossible!” The Fire Moth Deity was wide-eyed in surprise. He stopped his consecutive attacks and stepped back as he realized that all his attacks could not injure his opponent. His flames didn’t even burn the executioner’s robes.
“The first huge explosion… you have killed hundreds of people to ashes. While we were trying to avoid casualties, you eliminated those innocent people without any consideration. Is that your attitude as the peak power holder in this world?” Nell wore a black shadow mask and her black cloak. She flew out of Vanessa’s hood and floated in the air, looking down on the Fire Moth Deity with a cold gaze.
“!?” The Fire Moth Deity was extraordinarily shocked. Despite this executioner’s tiny body, he could feel the incredible power of this newcomer.
No wonder all his attacks and flames had no effect. It was all because of this little executioner deed!
“However, let’s end this here. Holy Light, Divine Arrows.” Nell swung her arms downwards. Dozens of golden light arrows fell, nailing the Fire Moth Deity to the ground.
The Fire Moth Deity was about to turn into magma and escape through the ground, but Nell didn’t let her opponent run. “Restraint, Holy Binding.”
Several strings of golden light rose out of thin air and restrained the Fire Moth Deity’s movement. His transformation was sealed, and his body could not be moved.
“Burn to Ashes!” The Fire Moth Deity swelled up, sending out a plume of explosive magma fire.
Surprisingly, the bindings that restrained his body were still there. His fire couldn’t burn the element of light!?
*Slap*
Nell slapped the empty air, creating a powerful concentrated shockwave that pierced her opponent’s chest. She then put something there before this giant Fire Moth could recover the damage.
“What did you inject into my body!?” The Fire Moth Deity roared in pain. A small explosion suddenly occurred from within his body. Puffs of white foam soaked out every inch of his body and made him like a snowman.
Nell took advantage of that moment to forcibly snatch the king piece from Fire Moth Deity’s body.
“This isn’t the first time I’ve come across a fire domain. Look how easily I put out the fire you are so proud of.” Nell threw several items far away in several directions.
Those items exploded and emitted an invisible amount of gas. The sea of fire slowly extinguished, leaving the harbor razed to the scorched ground.
“Ghak!” The Fire Moth Deity spat out a mouthful of liquid magma. His fire body instantly extinguished and turned like a grayish-black stone.
“You’ve been eliminated. Reflect on your deeds in the prison of light until your heavenly judgment day arrives.” Nell made a holy cage and sent the Fire Moth Deity into the prison in her Private Realm.
“Let’s get out of here.” Nell immediately took Vanessa and Wendy away from the vicinity using short-range teleportation.
The explosion and the sea of fire that devoured the harbor happened so suddenly and went out so mysteriously. Not to mention that senseless tornado.
Firefighters, ambulances and police cars arrived at the harbor only to find hot, scorched ground still emitting black smoke. Many people engulfed in the explosion had died to ashes. Those within a few hundred meters of the impact suffered minor to severe injuries.
“…” Vanessa was silent, watching the aftermath of the incident from the roof of a tall building. If she hadn’t been with the Goddess of Blessings in the previous clash, she would have been burned to ashes in that sea of fire.
“Sigh…” Nell heaved a subtle sigh. They had just come face to face with an unexpected powerful deity, and there were still nearly sixty other deities to hunt.
Nell worked out several other plans in mind and relayed them to Elysia via their spirit connection telepathy. Everyone should be more careful when dealing with a deity and have backup plans because those deities also intend to hunt them, the executioners.
“Our impregnable protection will last for two hours. Let’s hunt for more deities before sunset.” Nell went back into hiding in Vanessa’s hood.
Vanessa just nodded, and they left from there.
While the executioners were in action, the Minamoto Clan mobilized their global intelligence power to gather all the information on worldwide events with great enthusiasm.
Mitsuzuka, Kenji, Mio, and Erina were in the international communication room within their mansion. They were watching a heated war in the Pacific Ocean finally end. The troops from both sides retreated in their entirety.
Most soldiers from both sides contracted the so-called mysterious disease. They had to be treated in their home countries to obey the Alchemy Association and the World Health Organization policies.
However, some of the core members of the Minamoto Clan knew that things weren’t that simple. There was an oddity about the complete withdrawal of all troops from every battlefield. Still, no one could explain the exact cause.
America suddenly stopped attacking, and Japan had no reason to press further either because they feared the third world war would worsen.
The Japanese military pretty much didn’t want the experience of the previous world wars to happen. It had deeply imprinted on their souls.
“Sir, we have another request for a meeting with Elysia-sama.” The intelligence officer noticed a new official message entering their network.
“Who sent the request?” Mitsuzuka frowned. This was already the twelfth request they had received in the last two days. Somehow, information about Elysia had been leaked to several high-class clans in various countries.
“Hong Ju-Won, the only son of the Hong Clan in Seoul, South Korea.” The intelligence officer printed the official letter and put it on the table.
“Hong Clan from South Korea? How did they know about Elysia in the first place? Is it because of the Alchemy Association? That sly old woman?” Mitsuzuka glanced at the letter, but he had no interest in dealing with it now.
“Most likely it’s because of the Alchemy Association. However, the cause of Kenji-sama and Erina-sama’s recovery is indeed we can’t seal for a long time from other top clans.” Ryosei read the letter and sighed. They also couldn’t do anything since Elysia wasn’t under their clan.
“Hmm-mm~ So, word of Ellie has already spread, huh… It doesn’t matter since no one dares to mess with her. If they are too stupid to insist on bothering her, then they will receive a painful retribution.” Erina put her hands together with a mysterious happy smile.
“…” Mio chose not to comment. Erina’s attitude was a bit strange whenever it was about Elysia.
“Whatever the reason, we can only take care of the meeting requests later with Elysia’s permission. I’m more curious about this organization called Guardian of Dream. I presume Elysia is from there because they also give the same antidote formula to several other superpower countries. They want the superpower countries to mass produce the antidote as soon as possible.” Kenji pointed to a report that made him think two to three times but still felt like something was missing.
“Guardian of Dream, hmm… We seem to be getting closer to uncovering Ellie’s secrets. A person endowed with beauty, grace, extraordinary talent, and nobility is not just a normal person.” Erina intertwined her fingers, and her expression brightened.
