Chapter 252: Chapter 236: Malice Punishment (Request for Monthly Ticket)
The situation on Dragon Island was dire.
Although Emily had received a boost in combat ability, allowing her to create trouble for her opponent,
it was clear that she could only create trouble, nothing more.
As the strategist of the Tower of Truth, Mei’er not only possessed absolute intellect, but also the agile and powerful body of the Dragon Clan.
Such a perfect form allowed her to suppress Emily even with the most basic hand-to-hand combat.
Emily relied on her strong Holy Light self-healing ability to withstand Mei’er’s casual attacks.
As long as the healing was fast enough, the damage could be rounded down to none!
However, Emily’s attack strategies had already been seen through by the Wise Sage.
"Soul attack, am I right?"
The Half Dragon Girl directly grabbed Emily’s crowbar, letting her arm burst into fragments of blood mist.
"Your attribute attacks cannot break through the elemental immunity of the Dragon Clan. Your physical attacks are not strong enough to harm a Dragon Clan body.
As for Law, Rule, and Conceptual Power, they can’t succeed against me with the Power of Destruction protecting my body.
So, the only reason you can hurt me is that you’re directly attacking my soul!
Using soul impact to affect the physical body is indeed a brilliant offensive tactic.
Let me guess, this must be the handiwork of the Demon wielding Malice!
Hahahaha...
It seems she has made considerable progress in digesting the Power of Profanation."
Emily trembled all over upon hearing this, her eyes becoming more vigilant.
She didn’t expect that after just a few hits, her opponent could understand her tactics.
As the Wise Sage said, the reason her attacks could hurt the opponent was not due to Conceptual Power or attribute or physical attacks.
It was a kind of Desire Power generated under Lilith’s abilities, based on her overwhelming hatred.
The Dragon Girl was protected by the concept of Destruction Power, and the concept of Malice indeed couldn’t do much harm.
But what Malice produced does not fall under the category of concepts!
Emily couldn’t fully understand the principle due to her simple mindset.
But she thought it sounded somewhat similar to what Lette often said, like "You reap what you sow" and "Every cause has an effect, your retribution is me".
In short, it was causality-based damage.
The Wise Sage was the main creator of the Witch’s tragedy, and over the years, many people had suffered because of her actions, dying in despair.
Such malice could not be left unpunished!
And at the core of the Law is the principle of rewarding good and punishing evil.
The fusion of these two forces allowed Emily’s attacks to carry a special assault effective only against the Wise Sage – Malicious Punishment!
Punishment acted as the cannon, and Malice as the shell.
Each of Emily’s attacks was akin to a point-blank cannon shot!
If the Wise Sage were an ordinary human, she would not remain so composed now.
At the very least, Emily would force her to reveal one or two trump cards for self-preservation.
Unfortunately, the Wise Sage now possessed the powerful body of a Dragon. While Emily could harm her with Malicious Punishment, she couldn’t inflict fatal damage.
This level of damage, with the Dragon Clan’s strong self-repair ability, couldn’t leave permanent scars.
Not to mention, the Wise Sage had many more tricks up her sleeve that hadn’t been revealed.
"Boom!"
After being struck by Emily’s attack, the Dragon Princess’s back was torn open. She endured the pain, grabbing at Emily’s neck in return.
Such close proximity, such rapid force, at such a tricky angle.
Emily had no way to dodge. She hadn’t achieved Ascension, and even with the Holy Light Goddess’s blessing, her body remained mundane, unable to compare with a divine body, let alone compete with the Dragon Clan.
Under such an attack, she was highly likely to perish then and there.
At the critical moment, the Liar Demon once again stepped in front of Emily.
With a splatter, everything burst like an illusion, exploding into fragments.
Pinocchio’s figure disappeared along with Emily, and together they landed on a high peak.
"Thanks!"
"No need..."
The Liar Demon clenched his fists, feeling powerful fairy tale elements surging into his body, transforming into the Power of Lies.
It seemed the Ascension of Fairy Town had already been completed.
Lette had not yet appeared; it appeared the boss had stayed behind to guard against any mutants.
But the good news was that it wouldn’t take long!
Once the rapid growth phase of the Fairy Tale Element Subspace was over and it fully cooled and solidified, he could return to the battlefield.
Until then, he had to hold on.
"In the realm of truth and falsehood, sink into oblivion!"
The Liar Demon activated his power, creating a massive array of illusions to envelop the enemy.
Though the Fairy Tale Subspace provided him much assistance, his true reliance in battle was Lette’s Emergence Power.
Only Emergence Power could forcibly elevate the Blood Flesh Evil God’s fractured True Law to a conceptual level.
Although only temporarily, it could still perfectly integrate with Pinocchio.
This dreamlike illusion capability was much more effective than Lies!
The Liar Demon was somewhat anxious: should he choose this path for advancement?
In his moment of distraction, the Wise Sage suddenly broke through his barrier, unleashing Destruction Dragon Breath towards the mountain top.
"Impossible! How did you escape so quickly?"
The Liar Demon was confident in his trap, meticulously weaving this Illusion Realm since the battle began.
Although this was his first time using the power of illusion, his experience with the concept of Lies allowed him to adapt quickly.
Yet, the opponent broke free in less than a minute after he had spent so long weaving it?
What kind of Demon was he, a clown?
Emily reacted swiftly, grabbing Pinocchio and fleeing.
Just as they escaped, the Destruction Dragon Breath melted the mountain from top to bottom.
It was as though hot water poured onto a small snowdrift, melting away the snow in an instant.
"This can’t be, it’s impossible!"
The Liar Demon couldn’t comprehend; even if the opponent had Destruction Power, the Illusion Realm he created had no offensive capability and should not have triggered the protection.
"Hahaha, your little games testing humanity and tormenting hearts were indeed clever."
The Wise Sage Mei’er relentlessly pursued them, her expression playful.
"It’s just a pity, I buried my humanity alongside my heart long ago."
With that, Mei’er raised her hand and began chanting ancient Dragon Language Magic.
Rumble, rumble, rumble!
Suddenly, Dragon Island erupted in powerful magical auras.
Thunder, fire, ice, hurricanes, meteors...
These potent natural disasters combined, making Dragon Island seem like an apocalypse.
Emily, unfortunately, was caught in two attacks and was heavily thrown to the ground.
As several destructive Dragon Language Magic spells were about to descend, a familiar voice called from behind her.
"Emily, don’t panic! Catch your new equipment!"
