23. Battle Plan
What followed was a one-sided slaughter.
The Beast King brothers, working in unison, transformed into two streaks of lightning and soared into the sky. The lightning twisted and coiled, forming a drill-like shape—their ultimate combined combat skill.
And the next second, the dragon on the left appeared before them at the same speed.
With one punch, he sent both brothers crashing back to the ground, creating a large crater.
“Hahahahahaha—!”
The Beast King got up from the ground, his laughter somewhat strained. He didn’t say anything, just looked at the black dragon in the sky… His right arm was completely dislocated, the bones shattered, and the five golden rings on his fingers were completely broken.
Kribi stood up, shook his head, his once proud and confident eyes now filled with despair. He wiped the fresh, gruesome scar on his forehead and was speechless.
“That guy… damn it.”
“Should we use more valuable treasures…”
At the same time, the black dragon in the sky above spoke in a magnetic, middle-aged male voice:
“Please leave. I alone can kill everyone.”
“The Dragon King is strong,” the bandaged girl shook her head, touching her bandaged lips with her index finger.
“Hehe, then the two of us are enough,” the black dragon chuckled. “I’ll deal with the Dragon King, you take care of the rest.”
“No…”
The bandaged girl shook her head again, pointing at Reina:
“She’s very strong. We might not be able to win.”
“Her?”
The black dragon began to carefully examine Reina, stroking his chin, as if this battle was just a pleasant stroll for him.
Their conversation was audible to any demon with decent hearing.
Reina, unlike the others who were staring blankly at the sky, seized this rare opportunity.
She gave a look to the Four Kings of the Realms, and the four of them, understanding, gathered all their forces.
Including the Saintess and the Dark Elf Queen, they surrounded Calysia and Reina.
“The disparity in our strength is obvious to everyone.”
“Yes,” Kribi clenched his fists. Although he was unwilling, he could only trust Reina now. “Who is that dragon?”
Everyone held their breath.
The power gap was too large.
Even without the Goddess of Light, these three enemies would be more than a handful for them.
And it seemed only the Dragon King could be relied on.
But unlike everyone else, Reina maintained a calm smile.
As if everything was under her control.
Reina, in a voice the Shadow of God couldn’t hear, quietly explained the battle plan.
Calysia patted Reina’s tail.
The Beast King’s laughter grew louder.
Kribi frowned, but still nodded: “I think I know why the orcs lost to you.”
Sophia’s eyes widened: “Little sister Reina, is this really okay?”
Ann smiled: “We have always believed in Lady Reina, and this time is no exception.”
Azure smiled faintly and nodded, as if agreeing with Ann’s words.
Fire Dragon looked eager, baring her teeth and giving a “V” sign.
“It’s a bold guess, but for now, this might be the only way,” the Dark Elf Queen clutched her chest, her face turning pale again at the thought of the destructive scene.
After the discussion, everyone dispersed. At the same time, the three in the sky also finished their negotiations.
Calysia picked up Reina and soared into the air, facing the three of them.
Kribi, Sophia, and Shining Scale Liya gathered together, as if preparing some special tactic.
The Dark Elf Queen, the Azure Scale Knights, and the remaining royal guards gathered together.
The Beast King, the cat girl, the newly awakened werewolf, and Shaman Crimson Statue walked together, joining White Scale and Ann.
Then, as if sensing something, the bandaged goddess made her move, seizing the opening. Everyone felt space being torn apart, and then, countless purple, cube-like objects gradually filled their vision, slicing the crowd into four parts like a cake.
[Myriad Wheel Moon Mirror]
Calysia didn’t use [Chaos].
The cool, cube-like glass that had split the crowd shattered with a sharp sound, and then formed an impenetrable spatial barrier.
Reina looked up at the bandaged girl, who was gradually disappearing from her sight, and a strange, triumphant smile appeared on her face.
Soon, the surrounding scenery was reshaped as if by a virtual reality projection. She and Calysia, along with the humans led by the Saintess below, were separated from the other three groups, and arrived in a completely different space.
Beneath their feet was a hard ground that reflected a faint light like a water surface. Above them, three strange blue moons were the only source of light in this otherworldly dimension.
Just as Reina had imagined.
Everyone was separated by space. Even if the Shadow of God realized this might be a trap, they wouldn’t miss the opportunity to defeat them one by one.
Calysia landed on the ground, but she didn’t let go of Reina, still protecting her wife in a princess carry.
The Saintess followed close behind.
Standing before them was the black dragon.
“I am the Dragon of the Primordial Era, my dear kinsmen, hehe…”
The black dragon stepped forward, each step heavy.
Although he wasn’t as tall as the mountain-like Beast King, Reina could vaguely see that the black dragon’s powerful aura was comparable to Calysia’s.
He pulled down his hood, revealing a face with thick black hair. His sideburns and hair merged, and with the aura-like magic attached to him, he resembled a fierce lion.
“You’re still alive, you defeated general, [Dragon Slayer]?”
Calysia pursed her lips and smiled.
…
At the same time, Shining Scale and her group were also sent to an almost identical space. They looked up at the black sun, their faces filled with despair and shock.
Sophia frowned slightly:
“It seems our luck isn’t very good. That damned bandaged girl actually thinks we need the Goddess of Light to solve this~”
“We shouldn’t have believed Azure Scale’s words! The three of us against that black dragon, we would have had a chance!”
Kribi cursed angrily.
The other groups were assigned the most combat power and might even win easily!
Didn’t that Azure Scale just abandon us like in a horse race?
Just then, Sophia remembered Reina’s words and explained:
“We’ll hold her off. When the others finish their battles and come to support us, we’ll definitely win.”
“Are you kidding?”
Kribi chuckled wryly:
“Do you really think we can survive for three seconds against that monster without the Dragon King?”
Liya looked up at the figure of the Goddess of Light, which was still unclear. As if remembering something, her legs began to tremble uncontrollably. She gritted her teeth, forcing herself to move, but she couldn’t.
Will I die this time?
But…
As long as White Scale can survive, that’s enough…
But just as the three were thinking, a voice pierced through the clouds, giving them hope again. They turned around and were surprised to find Reina, who had emerged from the darkness as if nothing had happened.
At this moment, she was wearing a bishop’s white robe, her sudden change of clothes surprising, but even more astonishing.
“Everyone, who told you to stall for time?”
The blackened [Judgment Blade] appeared in her right hand.
“This here is the main battlefield~”
“What should we do?” Sophia asked excitedly. For some reason, when she saw Reina, she felt that the battle was already won.
Reina smiled, and then, her terrifying dragon eyes opened:
“It’s simple.”
“Just kill the Goddess of Light.”
