71. Mutual Understanding
That was the power that had sustained the blood race for thousands of years.
The Blood King’s Bone.
The power of the Blood Queen had been passed down through inheritance, and this had also led to the fact that for thousands of years, every Blood Queen was level 100.
And the remaining power was all stored in the Blood King’s Bone.
Not only the excess power of the past queens, but also the blood-sucking instincts and power of the blood race, which had been suppressed for thousands of years, were all gathered on that single bone.
The Crimson Priest observed the box in Sophia’s hand through the misty illusion projected.
It was a crimson bone, more vibrant than the eyes of the blood race, more dazzling than blood.
The power it contained was enough to allow a powerful person to obtain a body that could carry Aurora’s soul.
At that time, after she swallowed this bone and became a powerful existence, she could let Lord Aurora descend upon its body. For an apostle, what a great fortune this was.
And,
That mirror, it had only given a warning after the switch was pressed… In other words, unless it was a meticulously forged replica, it couldn’t possibly be a fake. And with the blood race alone, it was impossible to create a second divine artifact with the same [causality] as the Blood King’s Bone.
“Crimson Priest, you are too weak. If the task of reviving her were given to me, I would only need half a year, and you have been at it for 730 years without any progress,” Elena’s eyes gradually became contemptuous.
“That’s right.”
“Crimson Priest, let’s go together. Let’s do it like this.”
“A mere Goddess of Light… we can’t just abandon the other apostles.”
Just then, it seemed that everyone present was incited by Elena and looked at the Crimson Priest.
“Shut up!”
The Crimson Priest was about to go mad.
Although she had brainwashed Elena, Elena was ultimately a believer of Aurora.
Yes, Elena was too strong.
She was even so strong that she could replace her at any time. It had only been a week since she had come here, and her say seemed to be about to surpass the Crimson Priest’s.
She actually felt jealous!
No… this was also fine.
Yes…
As long as it was more devout than everyone else, as long as Aurora could descend upon its body, then everything would be fine.
“Okay, we’ll all attack. I do have the strength to defeat them, and you should have also received Aurora’s [grace], right? This time, at least we must take down the Blood Queen.”
The Crimson Priest’s voice became cold.
It had only taken a few tenths of a second to confirm its plan, and therefore, it had acted like an unpredictable shrew.
It extended its hand and released a cloud of mist, like a spatial gate.
The Crimson Priest chose a few people and went with her to the auction house, to surround and annihilate the Dragon King and Dragon Queen who were bound to be there.
Among them, Elena was in the team.
Walking into the mist, it was like coming to a completely different second space.
Following the misty space to the end was another spatial gate.
Jumping out of the spatial gate, it was actually the auction house.
This was the powerful spatial ability inherited by the Crimson Priest. According to it, this spatial ability was no less than that of the leader of the Shadow of God, but there had been no time to have a match.
When the apostles arrived at the auction house, it had already been surrounded by the Crimson Priest’s mist.
From Sophia’s perspective, this mist had appeared out of thin air, without any warning.
And Elena and the cloaked person’s appearance was so sudden, it was as if they had appeared before her in an instant.
The Crimson Priest almost instantly opened its hand, and after a cloud of mist, the box containing the Blood King’s Bone, which Sophia had been holding tightly, had been transferred to the Crimson Priest’s hand.
“You…!”
The entire process, from decision to action, had only taken a minute.
But the Priest felt that something was wrong.
Because the Goddess of Light hadn’t reacted at all!
It began to observe the Blood King’s Bone in its hand. Just as it opened the box and saw the crimson bone, it was ecstatic, but suddenly, it discovered… this was actually a fake!
“Apostles, something is wrong, retreat!”
As it shouted this, while still running through the misty portal, its brain began to think at high speed.
Why? Was there a problem with the mirror? That was clearly a divine artifact that carried a huge amount of causality! Why did this bone look like a fake made of polished crystal now?
No…
For a moment, it understood everything!
The effective range of the mirror was larger than it had imagined.
In other words, there was someone present who had obtained the power of the [Blood King’s Bone] and had deceived the mirror!
Yes, absolutely right. Sophia had actually swallowed the Blood King’s Bone!
Everyone knew what it meant for the Blood Queen to swallow this divine artifact.
If she died, the blood race would collapse, and no queen would dare to accept this power. This meant that she was confident that she could rule the blood race forever before finding a new method. She could actually do this!
Completely unacceptable!
But before its brain could realize this absurd thing, it was already too late.
The spatial gate was instantly closed. Although the mist hadn’t dissipated, it had completely lost its effect.
This was the Goddess of Light’s [Space Lock].
But it had been prepared. It took out a glass bottle and crushed it, and the black mist stored inside formed a separate portal.
“Elena, run!”
The portal could only pass one person at a time.
It would teleport everyone to a temporarily generated independent space, a space that no one could find. After the space lock was over, it could send them to a safe area. It was an emergency escape route.
Elena jumped in without a word and disappeared from the auction house.
The Crimson Priest turned around and met the gaze of the existence that was already standing here.
“You are…!”
“Hello, monkey.”
It was actually the Dragon King!
Why did she have spatial abilities?
But the next second, what shocked it even more was that the moment Elena jumped into the space, the backup escape black mist portal was actually closed!
This was the second unacceptable fact.
Its eyes, hidden under the hood, were bloodshot:
“Elena? You… you’re actually a traitor!”
…
On the other side,
Elena jumped into the black mist space.
Inside the black mist was an independent space. The ground, ceiling, and surroundings were all filled with black mist, almost endless. She didn’t feel like she was on solid ground. This seemed to be a special characteristic of an independent space.
The moment she jumped in, she extended her hand, and her level 130 magic power forcefully closed the only exit, sealing it tight.
And with this, the mutual understanding and cooperation with Reina came to an end.
“It never thought that it could incite all the believers in a few days, and even almost replace its existence, and do even more astonishing things.”
“Elena…”
“You’re really strong.”
In the black space, that dragon…
No, perhaps one could say the Dragon Queen, the President of the God Slaying Society, the Goddess of Light… Teacher Bud, any of them.
It was all her.
This world, and even her.
She wore a black dress, and lace stockings, making one want to hug her.
But Elena lowered her head. She didn’t speak for a long time, and Reina in the black mist also became a little blurry.
“Teacher Bud, you… you only have these things to say to me?”
