Chapter 252: The Great Melee
Before Dongfang could react, Chen Ran asked directly, “Excuse me, in which room is the leader of your White Witch Clan imprisoned? There is a great battle going on outside, and we need your strength to help us fight against the Black Witch Clan outside.”
As if to confirm Chen Ran’s words, the ground shook violently, and a rumbling sound came from a distance, getting clearer and clearer.
The woman in the moon-white long gown nodded and said, “Hello, I am the leader of the White Witch Clan, Yueji.”
The woman bowed politely. Her face was a little weak, but her attitude was extremely respectful. “Thank you for saving us, benefactor. The White Witch Clan will never forget your great kindness.”
“So you are Lord Yueji.” Chen Ran hadn’t expected the leader of the White Witch Clan to be so young. But looking at her mature eyes, she didn’t seem to be just a few years older than him as he had thought. She should also have some special youth-retaining technique.
Feeling the tenth-tier strength that the woman in front of him was gradually recovering, Chen Ran unhesitatingly took out the Heavenly Snake Staff from his storage ring, held it with both hands, and solemnly handed it to Lord Yueji of the White Witch Clan.
“We’re counting on you outside, Lord Yueji.”
Yueji took the staff. The moment she took it, the snake pattern on the top of the Heavenly Snake Staff emitted a beautiful cyan light, and Yueji’s body was also enveloped by a little bit of cyan fluorescent light. When the light dissipated, some exquisite silver ornaments appeared outside her moon-white long gown, and a beautiful crown full of silver pendants appeared on her head, and two large silver rings appeared on her ears. This outfit improved her spirit a lot.
It seemed that high-grade epic equipment came with a transformation effect. Elena’s Thorned Rose transformed into a Dark Knight of the Demon World, the White Witch Saintess in front of him transformed into a Witch Saintess outfit, and Chen Ran’s Twelve Canticles of Dawn brought the Angel Armament. They all had such special effects.
After hearing Chen Ran’s notice, Yueji also understood the urgency of the situation. The battle outside was getting fiercer. She said sincerely to Chen Ran, “Then I’ll trouble you, benefactor, to rescue all our trapped clansmen.”
“Piece of cake,” Chen Ran nodded and said to Nicole beside him, “Remember to send a signal after you go out, telling the Snake Demon Clan that our mission here is complete and asking for support.”
Chen Ran casually cast a few buff spells on Yueji to increase their strength as much as possible.
Although the White Witch Clan had been trapped in the dungeon for a long time, and their strength was not even 30-40% of their peak, with Chen Ran’s buffs, they could barely recover to 70-80% of their original strength, which should be enough to resist the power of the Black Witch Clan outside.
Hearing Chen Ran’s instructions, Nicole nodded in acknowledgment. She turned around and gestured for the White Witch Saintess to follow her to support the outside.
Just then, Dongfang pulled the corner of the White Witch Saintess’s skirt and looked at the White Witch Saintess Yueji, saying, “Big sister, why do I feel a very familiar feeling when I see you?”
The White Witch Saintess looked at the confused Dongfang, her eyes a little complicated, and there were even tears in the corners of her eyes. She bent down and gently patted Dongfang’s little cheek with her palm. “The situation is urgent now. I’ll explain it to you later, okay?”
The White Witch Saintess left only a smile and walked quickly outside. Her back brought a string of illusionary blue afterimages, so beautiful that she didn’t look like she belonged to the mortal world.
Chen Ran continued his heavy task of unlocking.
He used the universal key to open the shamanistic prisons one by one, then unlocked their shackles, and then used the Holy Purge to dispel the transformation spells on them. The cows, sheep, mice, poultry, and so on returned to human form one after another, leaving Dongfang, who had been following Chen Ran, dumbfounded.
More than a hundred high-level figures of the White Witch Clan were rescued by Chen Ran. The workload was huge. It took more than an hour to finish the things here. And the outside was shaken into a mess. The roof of this dungeon was full of shaken lime. It could be seen that the battle outside was obviously in a white-hot stage…
Until the last high-level figure of the White Witch Clan was rescued, Chen Ran let out a long sigh of relief as if he were exhausted. He twisted his somewhat numb arms, pulled Dongfang, and walked outside to see how the battle outside was going.
Chen Ran quickly escaped from the dungeon that was about to collapse and ran outside…
Boom!
As soon as he went out, a shockwave hit the wall beside Chen Ran. A splash of fragments splattered all over Chen Ran. Fortunately, he always maintained the life-saving skill Holy Light Shield, which blocked most of the damage.
A false alarm…
Looking outside, he was instantly shocked by the magnificent scene.
Two-headed wyverns were flying all over the sky, circling in the sky. The Snake Demon Clan led by the Snake Queen Medusa was shooting at the irritable wyverns in the sky with their skilled bows and arrows. Further away, more wyverns and snake demons were rushing to the battlefields. Various shot-down wyverns and snake demons grabbed into the sky fell heavily from the sky, smashing into a pool of blood…
A large number of giant scorpions and demon spiders were fighting with the warriors of the White Witch Clan. Othello, Seiya, Nicole, and others were also dealing with a large number of high-level Black Witch Clan warriors. He even found that the Black Witch Clan actually had a kind of huge demon monster like an eight-armed Arhat King Kong, five meters tall, with a bronze body and iron arms, invulnerable to swords and guns. The previous shaking sound mostly came from them.
The Saintess of the White Witch Clan, Yueji, was facing the hag mistress of the Black Witch Clan. The two were entangled in the air. One turned into a sky-blue dharma ball, and the other turned into a deep purple dharma ball. Various energy waves came out of their dharma balls. The powerful destructive power reflected everything around them into a strange blue-green mixed flame, and the world changed color with their battle…
The scene was extremely chaotic.
And judging from the situation, it seemed that the White Witch Clan was still behind!
Chen Ran also understood. After all, the warriors of the White Witch Clan had been imprisoned for so long. Although they had his buff support, they still couldn’t truly block the Black Witch Clan, which had been resting and building up strength. And the strength of each other’s reinforcements…
Chen Ran’s scalp tingled. He had never expected that the Black Witch Clan, besides the Blood Bat Clan, actually had such a number of demon beast allies. What was Medusa doing? The information she gave was so incomplete that even she herself was in trouble.
Dongfang at the side volunteered, “Big brother, I’ll go help fight the bad guys too.”
“Go ahead. It’s best to go with your big sister Nicole. Be careful yourself,” Chen Ran instructed and didn’t object.
The situation now was too chaotic, and there were too many people to take care of. And his next task was extremely heavy. He had to show the power to turn the tide!
With Instantaneous Movement and a run, Chen Ran approached the protection array of the Snake Demon Clan.
At this time, the Snake Demon Clan suffered heavy casualties. Queen Medusa alone suppressed the attack of a group of wyverns. Her demon pupils flashed, and the wyverns who dared to look directly into her pupils turned into stone statues in the air one by one, fell from the sky, and smashed into a pile of rubble.
Although the gorgon was strong, her vitality was fragile, and she had suffered multiple heavy injuries.
A bright healing light lit up on the gorgon’s body, repairing the wounds on her body, and at the same time cast various buff statuses on her.
Medusa nodded gratefully to Chen Ran. Chen Ran flashed to her side and said depressedly, “What kind of intelligence is this? Didn’t you say that rescuing the White Witch Clan would give us the strength to counterattack? We’ve dealt with the giant bat clan. How did those big guys come out? Why is our situation still behind?”
“The situation has changed a little,” the Snake Queen said coldly. “Today, the Witch Clan Mistress’s two daughters who were out came back. Especially the little daughter in green who is only twelve or thirteen years old. She is born with the art of controlling demon beasts. This time, she controlled the low-IQ Wyvern King, Giant Scorpion King, and Demon Spider King. The power of the three foreign races caused us huge trouble. In addition, the Black Witch Mistress dispatched the two eight-armed King Kongs of the Witch Clan, both of which are not weaker than the tenth tier. These were all beyond my expectations.”
“Damn it…”
He had seen situations go wrong, but he had never seen them go so wrong. Chen Ran couldn’t help but despise this irresponsible gorgon in his heart. Sure enough, all the development went to the cup size. What’s the use of having an F cup!
He had trusted this gorgon queen so much before, thinking that rescuing the White Witch Clan would mean victory…
This obviously didn’t fit the script!
A few black lines appeared on Chen Ran’s forehead, and he finally accepted this tragedy.
Alright, it’s time to show my value!
Running to the center of his team, Nicole, Othello, Dongfang, and the Holy Child Livens were waiting for orders. They were already used to the battles commanded by Chen Ran.
In front of them, the biggest trouble was those two damn eight-armed giants!
He didn’t know what they were. These things were actually living beings. Chen Ran had thought that he could deal with them just by relying on the Dispel spell. As a result, the giant fist like a water tank directly blasted a small house down under misfire, almost blasting him out of his wits.
Chen Ran believed that if that thing hit him, the Holy Light Shield wouldn’t be able to protect him.
The big King Kong with eight arms was almost immune to physical damage. Among those present, only Seiya’s Desolator could cut through its body, but it couldn’t cause decent damage either.
Indeed, if it were so easy to deal with, the Black Witch Clan wouldn’t use this thing as a killer weapon. The rescue of the White Witch Clan had aroused the absolute attention of the Black Witch Clan.
Chen Ran used [Weakness Insight] on the eight-armed big King Kong and squinted his eyes…
These guys had no other special abilities, just super high defense and super strength. They could be defeated, but it would definitely take a lot of time. Essentially, they were for you to hit until your hands hurt. The only way to restrain them was that they were all acting under some kind of spiritual instruction, and they had almost no IQ themselves.
Chen Ran had an idea immediately.
“Dongfang, summon a phantom beast that is good at mental disturbance and cast interference on that eight-armed guy!”
“Roger!”
Dongfang heard Chen Ran’s order immediately. Although her Word Spirit Staff had been confiscated, and the number of phantom beasts summoned was a little less, one above the seventh tier was not a problem. Achieving interference light waves was not too difficult.
