Chapter Thirty-One: Fierce Battle
"Sap of the Tree of Life?" Vina hesitated upon hearing this, not immediately agreeing.
With war looming, this kind of thing has become a necessity.
The elves need it to heal their wounds.
Loya continued, "I can inscribe some nice runes on your weapon to enhance your strength."
Vina nodded quickly: "Thank you for your help. I'll have someone send you the sap of the Tree of Life right away."
With her hand, she presented the green greatsword beside her to Loya.
The greatsword was indeed too big for Vina.
But for Loya, it was just a short sword.
Loya caught the greatsword without saying much. He readily took out the Witchcraft Inscription Brush and began to write and draw.
In fact, after the previous expenditures, his reserves have been depleted considerably.
Next, it's definitely impossible to burn too many copies.
Vina watched Loya's movements intently. Although she was a novice, she could still sense Loya's skill.
This gave her the feeling of appreciating a work of art.
"I'll first add a basic inscription to your sword: Sharpness, to enhance its destructive power."
"Then, I'll give you Wind Speed boost to increase your attack speed."
...
While working, Loya also provided an explanation.
The abilities of these inscriptions all sound pretty good.
Vina felt like she had gotten a great deal.
Indeed, that is the case.
It was truly an honor for Vina to have a demigod wizard like Loya serve her.
About fifteen minutes later, Loya shut up and stopped.
He presented Vina with a brand-new, green greatsword covered in inscriptions.
Vina, with a bright smile on her face, seized it.
She could clearly sense that the giant sword had been transformed, containing all sorts of powerful forces.
"Perhaps I have already obtained the pinnacle of Silver-level power. As long as Gold-level extraordinary beings don't come, I should be invincible." A strong sense of confidence surged uncontrollably into my heart.
Fortunately, Vina was rational enough to dispel this illusion in the next instant.
Loya obtained his own Tree of Life sap, returned to his house, and began to inscribe more runes onto his body.
As time passed, the sky grew increasingly dark.
A chilly natural wind blows from afar.
The waters of Emerald Lake ripple and sway gently on the waves, making the Boat of Hope, perched atop them, bob and rock softly.
The air also became gloomy and damp.
Clearly, this is another bad day.
Perhaps, a storm could come at any moment.
An invisible sense of oppression hung over Vina's heart.
In fact, the other elves also felt the pressure, and now they are all silent.
"Tonight is the time to set sail."
"May the great Elf God protect us and allow us to escape safely from the territory of the evil dragon Sophia," Vina prayed sincerely. In truth, she didn't believe in the Elf God. She used to, but the Elf God had slowly led them to despair.
As time went by, they also lost faith in the Elf God.
But now, she can't help but try anything, even if it seems hopeless.
After all, it's a form of psychological comfort.
...
In the center of the lake island, at the foot of Emerald Mountain.
Elena and her group of mysterious people arrived silently under a large tree.
They looked at the mountaintop with the naked eye.
Although it was dark, they could still feel the terrifying dragon's might on the mountain, which was rampant and suppressed all things.
Well, they didn't use any supernatural powers to enhance their eyesight and spy on the dragon Sophia. Because doing so would likely have alerted Sophia and drawn her attention.
"It's almost time." Half a minute later, Elena suddenly looked at the three master brothers beside her and said with a serious expression, "Now it's your turn to make your move."
"Yes, it's indeed our turn. Your Highness, it's a terrible loss." Thorin nodded heavily.
"Haha, it's been a long time since I've had such a passionate battle. To be honest, I'm getting a little excited right now." Philin smiled slightly.
Delin said solemnly, "Let's begin."
Thorin and Philin exchanged a glance and nodded simultaneously: "Let's begin."
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh," the three brothers disappeared from the spot after saying that.
They transformed into three shadows, rushing side by side towards the mountaintop.
A master of extraordinary abilities, placed in the mortal realm where gods are invisible, would undoubtedly be a powerful overlord.
Although Emerald Mountain is tall, it is nothing to a master like him.
In just five or six seconds, they crossed the mountains and reached the summit.
At this very moment, the evil dragon Sophia, with her eyes half-closed, lay fast asleep on her wealth.
Beside her were two small, clearly female dragon cubs, locked in a fierce fight.
Upon closer inspection, one can see that their skin is covered in dragon scales, and in some places it is broken, from which dragon blood is flowing.
This shows that they were not playing around, but were really fighting.
These two little dragon cubs were actually the "sister" born after Loya left.
However, both of these younger sisters were true dragons, so Sophia kept them to raise.
Although the sisters were just born, the dragon blood lurking within them was already incredibly active.
They are clearly sisters, but they still can't help but fight and can't get along peacefully.
"Damn Finland! I am the strongest, so I am Mother's eldest daughter. You will obediently be my younger sister and follow my orders to earn wealth for me!" A little green dragon suddenly leaped up and landed on top of another little green dragon.
"Ha, laughable Orpheus, I should be the one saying that." Finnish rolled over forcefully, pinning Orpheus down. She pressed down on Orpheus's head viciously and roared, "I was born first, I'm older than you. You bastard, how dare you make me your sister? You're courting death."
...
The two little dragon cubs' fight was so open and aboveboard, yet Sophia beside them kept her eyes closed, seemingly fast asleep. But with a true dragon's keen senses, she could definitely have noticed her children's brawl.
But she remained unmoved.
Therefore, it truly deserves the title of evil dragon.
However, just as the three brothers Thorin, Philin, and Delin reached the summit, Sophia, who was fast asleep, suddenly opened her eyes.
The terrifying dragon's might surged once again.
With a loud "boom," the sky changed color, and lightning flashed and thunder roared.
"Oh, how scary!" The two sisters, who had been fighting, were so frightened that they huddled together, trembling.
"You audacious humans, who gave you the courage to come to my lair?" Sophia roared, her voice echoing through the sky and causing the entire Emerald Mountain to tremble.
"We've been discovered? Then let's kill them outright." Thorin and the others were somewhat disappointed. They had originally thought they could pull off a sneak attack, but who knew that this evil dragon Sophia was more cautious and sensitive than they had imagined.
However, they were not afraid. Their initial assumption was that they would fight Sofia head-on.
With a deafening roar, a burst of intense red light erupted from Thorin's body, illuminating the dark world.
A sharp golden light burst forth from Felin's body.
A dark and eerie black light erupted from Delin's body.
The three rays of light, though distinctly different, moved in tandem and were linked together, assisting each other. This created a terrifying aura that surpassed even that of extraordinary masters.
Sophia's fierce dragon might was largely dispersed.
"Humans are not weak," Sophia said arrogantly, raising her head with a disdainful expression.
"But that's not enough, far from enough. I am Sophia. If you want to deal with me, you must bring out at least three human legends."
"Now, you only have three masters, yet you dare to face me?"
"You are looking down on me."
"You're all courting death."
Sofia roared incessantly, speaking at an incredibly fast pace; she spoke in less than three seconds.
After she finished speaking, her enormous body emitted green gas and then shot away.
With a "whoosh," Sophia appeared before the three masters, raising her enormous dragon claw and slapping them.
The power of the adult dragon erupted at this moment, instantly forming a palm wind that caused the hill to collapse, whistling past.
"Bang bang bang," the three masters were sent flying like badminton shuttlecocks.
They transformed into three meteors, crashing to the ground thousands of meters away. The powerful impact shattered the earth, creating three large craters.
"Hahaha, although you are weak, you are still worthy of my attention." Sophia spread her dragon wings, spewed out a green storm, propelled her huge dragon body into the sky, and then descended from the sky in an arc.
As she left, numerous green magical patterns appeared around the Emerald Mountain Dragon Nest.
Meanwhile, the plants that originally grew on this mountaintop and seemed ordinary suddenly multiplied, grew, and became larger, as if time had accelerated, and they intertwined together to form a colossal creature.
In the blink of an eye, a huge, constantly writhing green dome appeared.
The cover just covered the entire dragon's nest.
"Mommy, have fun!" came the sweet, innocent cry from Finland.
"Idiot." Ophie rolled her eyes and left Finland, casually walking over to where Sofia was lying.
This place is full of gems and gold coins.
"You wretched wretch, you ingrate! You need to show some respect to your mother!" Finland was extremely displeased with Ophie's attitude.
Orpheus said meaningfully, "Then if you're so capable, don't try to imitate me."
She suddenly lay down and embraced the wealth on the ground.
Her little paws were also restless, stuffing some inconspicuous little treasures into her mouth.
Finland was stunned: "How dare you steal your mother's wealth?"
A true dragon's obsession with its wealth is terrifying.
Don't assume that just because they are Sofia's children, they can be compared to this wealth.
No, no, no, anyone who thinks this way is completely wrong.
For true dragons, especially evil dragons, their own wealth is far more important than their own children.
Sophia, having learned of Orpheus's actions, is likely to cripple him.
Killing Orpheus is not impossible.
“If you don’t tell, and I don’t tell, how will Mom know? Don’t you want wealth? Do you want to protect wealth that doesn’t belong to you?” Orpheus said, his words muffled.
Upon hearing this, Finland was stunned. A strong feeling of excitement welled up from the bottom of her heart, but her fear of Sofia made her uncomfortable. These two emotions left her with a conflicted expression.
Orpheus, like a bewitching little devil, continued, "Just a little bit, we'll steal just a little bit."
"With so much wealth here, even if only a tiny bit is missing, it certainly won't be noticeable."
Do you think Mom would meticulously count all of this wealth?
...
"You rebellious wretch!" Finland cried out in despair. Yet, though she was scolding Orpheus, her body betrayed her true desires, rushing towards the riches.
"Heh, we're all the same, with sinful blood flowing through our veins," Orpheus uttered, a sigh that was both smug and complex.
...
At the same time, outside.
With a "whoosh whoosh whoosh," the three brothers, who had been driven into the ground, emerged from it, their clothes stained with blood.
With the combat technique [Boiling Heaven], Thorin's hands, like cannons, were aimed directly at Sophia, who was descending from the sky. Endless flames erupted from them, transforming into a pillar of fire that shot into the sky.
With the combat technique "Heaven Slash," Philin drew a golden lightsaber and slashed at the sky.
The dark combat technique [Shadowless Assassination] was also in full swing. Delin merged into the darkness, manipulating the night from all directions to create hundreds of black tentacles that surrounded Sophia from all sides, trying to capture her.
