Chapter 126: Perfect (1/2)

The Evergreen Essence signs were still fresh, meaning that it hadn't been long since she passed through this place.

The Elf Queen looked towards Allannia and asked: ”Weren't you here the whole time?”

”My Queen, forgive me, but I had to leave and deal with matters related to the next stage of the event.” Allannia bowed her head and concealed her countenance as a crafty light passed through her eyes.

The Elf Queen felt that something was off, but she was so preoccupied with her daughter that she ignored a part of the information. Her daughter was the person she loved the most and she wanted her safety more than anything else.

Pah!

Elyon spat a mouthful of blood and fell on the floor. The Elf Queen's aura was too much for him to handle, making his injury worsen at a visible rate.

”Elyon? Why are you hurt?” The Elf Queen felt that something was really off. A Profound Mana Realm practitioner wasn't so easily hurt like that.

”Reporting to the Elf Queen. I was caught in the attack of a Profound Mana Realm beast and was badly hurt by it. However, I worked together with the other members of the Secret Security Unity and took it down. It's just that...” Elyon stopped talking and supported his body up. He was feeling tired from her presence already.

”Just?”

”Those beasts seemed to be cray, totally out of control. They had a strange red aura around them, their abilities were stronger and instincts were sharper than normal. The other members of the unit are working together to contend them, while I came to warn Chief Commander Allannia and get some reinforcements.”

The Elf Queen finished hearing his words and vanished from the place she was. She passed through the door so quickly that, even though Allannia and Elyon were expecting that to happen, they got shocked.

Her daughter was inside the dungeon and the corrupted energy was infecting those beasts inside. The situation she feared the most was happening. If she wasn't in a state of panic inside, she would have realized that there must have been someone infecting the beasts, since the world inside was separated from the world outside.

Some seconds later, after the Elf Queen had left, Allannia's countenance changed to a more dignified one. She looked towards Elyon and said: ”Good work. You were at least able to fool her together with me. Take this.”

Allannia tossed him a medicine herb and he ate it. His injury didn't completely heal with that, but it closed instantly.

”Thanks for your grace, Chief Commander Allannia.”

”You can stop calling me that, it's already time for the next step of our operation.”

”Very well, my Queen.”

Allannia looked towards the blue orb that controlled the entrance to the dungeon and moved her hands swiftly, making it fly towards her. She exerted all her Profound Mana cultivation base and tried to break it, however, nothing changed. Not even a scratch appeared on its surface.

”Heh... Let's see then.”

Allannia looked towards the blue orb and did something that left Elyon speechless. She brought a bottle of corrupted blood out and spilled it on top of the orb.

Crack!

Some cracks started to appear and very quickly, she felt that the protection around it had weakened. Once again, she used her entire cultivation base, but now the orb broke into a thousand pieces.

The entrance door to the dungeon behind them, instantly closed and the formation shattered. Everyone inside was stuck and the only people able to leave, were those who had that special talisman.

”Let's go. All we did was to buy us enough time for that, we can't lose a single second here anymore.”

Allannia and Elyon left the stadium that was already devoid of anyone.

Seth had already locked his Soul Sense on his next target and advanced towards it very quickly.

Five kilometers away, there was a masked elf that seemed more lost than anything. Seth could see that elf very clearly and was amused that he seemed to be admiring the environment instead of searching beasts to fight.

'What the heck? What's he up to?' Seth was getting really confused, since that elf didn't seem to be interested in the competition.
