Chapter 1228 - Dark Region (12) (1/2)

Boom!

As the white wolf swung its claws, the trembling stalactite pillars finally collapsed to the impact. In an instant, huge fragments fell from the peak and landed heavily on the ground. After the last stalactite pillar crumbled, the land finally restored its peace. At that moment, the towering white wolf lifted its head, scanned the surroundings, and shuddered. Shortly after, it shrunk swiftly as though it were under the influence of a shrinking spell. The four to five meters tall monster twisted and contracted in shape and Anne showed up within it. As the white wolf vanished, the air around it rapidly restored its usual state.

“Phew… Anne is so tired…”

Anne was exhausted, putting up a contrasting difference to the enthusiastic young lady from before. Well, she couldn’t be blamed. Even though the materialization of the Elemental Spirit was one of her strongest skills, it was a pity that Anne wasn’t a true elemental lord, after all. That was why although she could cast this skill, she also had to expend a lot of power. At that moment, she was thoroughly drained and had also yawned several times.

“… It’s finally over… This is the place, right, Angelina?”

“Yes, Miss Anne.”

Upon hearing Anne’s question, Angelina emerged from the shadows silently and answered. The dark elves weren’t aware that it was actually Angelina’s idea for Anne to transform into an Elemental Spirit. As a vampire, Angelina possessed the intelligence extracted from the brains of her victims, which was why she informed Anne immediately after learning who their enemies were. Even though Angelina didn’t instruct Anne specifically, Anne’s instincts were top-notch on the battlefield. Anne understood what it meant to ‘capture the ringleader first in order to capture all the followers’. Due to that reason, after gaining the intelligence from Angelina, Anne transformed into the Elemental Spirit instantly, charged into the enemy’s camp, and demolished their buildings. One had to admit that Anne’s instincts were sharp. At least for the moment, none of the enemies dared to stir trouble with her anymore.

In the first place, it might also be tough to determine whether there were any survivors…

Angelina lifted her head and scanned the ruins. She squinted and her scarlet eyes glinted with a trace of an ice-cold smile. Rhode didn’t give specific instructions to Angelina as to how she should defeat the enemies, but as a vampire born in the Country of Darkness, it went without saying that she knew what had to be done.

“Thanks for your help.”

“You’re welcome. Anne also decided to get it over with quickly and head back to sleep… Yawn… There should be nothing else for Anne, right? So can Anne make a move first?”

Anne said without taking a glance at the havoc she wreaked. She simply turned around, waved goodbye to Angelina, and departed this uninhabited ruin. Meanwhile, Angelina didn’t respond, but gazed respectfully at her departure instead. In terms of strength, even though Anne and Angelina were about the same level, it was a pity that their statuses were poles apart. Angelina clearly knew that this innocent young lady was pampered by her master. And as her master’s subject, Angelina knew she had to try her best to please Anne. That was why Angelina gave Anne the ‘opportunity’ to crush the enemies, while she remained at the rear quietly. Although Anne’s Elemental Spirit applied a lot of pressure to one, Angelina was a vampire who didn’t need to breathe, so she didn’t face any trouble throughout the one-sided battle. Anne was competent as a shield warrior, but it was a pity that she knew nothing about politics and conspiracies.

However, it was Angelina’s expertise.

“Alright, let’s begin, shall we…”

Putting up a cunning and sinister smile, Angelina raised her arms. Along with this action, faint, red mist exuded from her body, rolling and expanding to the surroundings. In just a few moments, the red mist became denser and heavier, while mournful wails echoed within. Then, shriveled and ugly specters emerged from inside one after another. Looking at this scene, Angelina’s smile turned elegant and mesmerizing.

“Dark elves, it’s time to experience the terror of your master. As hole-digging mice, it will be embarrassing if you can’t distinguish your lowly identity and status…”

While Angelina mumbled under her breath, innumerable corpses crawled out of the ruins. They widened their scarlet eyes and let out heart-wrenching screams.

The shadows of death spread in silence, shrouding the entire Carlesodar City.

But it was a pity that the dark elves who survived didn’t notice them.
