Success or failure is not scary, but once the relationship between success and failure will directly affect life and death, and even the future destiny of the entire race, there are few people who will not be afraid of such failure.
Not to mention the storm, even Chen Ao has a fear of death. This is the basic instinct of living things and also human nature.
It's natural for the Demon Rabbit to be afraid of death at such a young age. Storm stood aside and watched her for a long time before sighing and saying frankly, "Ever since I awakened my power, I've felt like a huge rock was pressing down on my heart. Even sleeping makes me feel breathless."
Xu Xianxian sighed and whispered, "Yes... Once you awaken your power, you have to shoulder heavy responsibilities. For ordinary people, it's not a good thing."
If the pressure is great enough, it can completely crush a person's mind.
At least the awakened ones are not bad people in nature, or under the influence of their own power, they will not do anything extraordinary. For example, Chen Ao went from a laid-off white-collar worker to a great and glorious saint in just a few days.
However, such a transformation suppresses one's own selfish desires, so it is invisibly transformed into another kind of pressure.
Storm pursed her bright red lips and glanced at the Demon Rabbit's expression for a few seconds. A complex emotion flashed in the depths of her eyes, but she didn't speak again.
The two of them remained strangely quiet.
......
Deep underground, outside the energy hall.
“You…you…how dare you…how dare you…!?”
Sha Su's body was covered in light blue blood. She looked at the scene in front of her tremblingly. She was not only filled with anger, but more of a fear and panic.
Not far in front of her, two broken goblin corpses were scattered on the ground. The originally exquisite and mysterious magic circuit structure in their bodies had now completely turned into black and gray crystals, and the endless magic power flowing in them had been completely devoured.
The only thing left is the breath of death.
In the claws of the mechanical cat gardener, there was a blood-red rapier that was only the size of a palm. It looked like a children's toy, but the blood-red runes and the powerful breath of death lingering on it showed that this thing was not just a decoration, but a sword of authority that could easily kill most creatures below the legendary level.
Holding this blood-red rapier means exercising the emotional authority of the legendary goblin.
"My Lord told you to leave... but you didn't know what was good for you. Such arrogance and ignorance will bring you eternal death."
The gardener glanced at the only remaining fairy. The fairy was quite strong, much stronger than it, so it was able to survive the previous attack.
However, the opponent was already seriously injured, and his magic power was completely devoured by the power. If he was hit again, he would probably be completely reduced to bones.
"We are all members of the noble class. Natalie is just a guard knight, yet she dares to kill nobles at will. Is she planning a rebellion?! I want to see Her Highness Ophelia. I don't believe she would let her subjects go like this!"
Sha Su covered her abdomen which was bleeding profusely and shouted angrily in a timid manner.
"Rebellion? What is that? My Lord is supreme and has never submitted to any creature. You, the outlander elves, are too ignorant. Even though your hearts are filled with fear, you still speak nonsense."
"you..."
“Damn it!”
The gardener's voice was filled with extreme indifference, and the cat's paw held high the blood-red rapier. Its body only reached Shasu's knees, but its breath made the fairy's body hunch over, as if there was an invisible force squeezing down in the air.
As one of the guardians of the Energy Hall, it was originally set not to kill other creatures at will, but... after being transformed by Xu Xianxian, it was transformed from a guardian to a killer.
All orders given by the Lord are to be carried out without question.
Just as the fairy noble Shasu turned into dust under the gardener's sword strike, a noble female voice came from the side.
"Wait a moment!"
As soon as the other party spoke, the gardener involuntarily put down the bloody rapier in his hand.
This is a situation that only occurs when the authority is far higher than it.
"Your Highness Ophelia."
The gardener turned around and saw the beautiful fairy walking towards him. He nodded with a little respect and put away the bloody rapier.
Now that Her Highness Ophelia has appeared, it would be inappropriate for it to take action again.
The Lord had also instructed that Her Highness Ophelia's orders were her orders, so stopping like this would not be considered a violation of the Lord's orders.
However, the necessary process was still necessary. It had to find out what Her Highness Ophelia was thinking. "Your Highness, these fairies disobeyed the Lord's orders, so I took action to suppress them."
"...I understand." Ophelia looked at the two fallen goblin corpses. They were dead as hell, even their souls had been sucked out. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Take out the souls of the two goblins you killed earlier, and leave this to me."
She had mixed feelings. Although she had guessed that Natalie would be ruthless, she didn't expect her to take action against the Fairy Empire so soon.
After this incident, Ophelia only has two choices.
To stand on the side of the Empire or with Natalie.
"Yes, I understand."
The gardener waved his cat claws, and two palm-sized goblin souls flew out. They looked the same as when they were alive, except that their expressions were a little dull, as if they had no intelligence.
Even without a body, the Archmage's soul could still survive normally, but that was not the case now.
