Chapter 401 -401-Alice, Defeated
The enormous angelic phantom gradually expanded across the sky.
At a glance, it was well over a hundred meters tall!
Along with Alice’s chant, Michael’s body was gradually filled by countless strands of the Power of Laws.
At this moment, all the living beings in Gamma City, including those mechanical bodies, seemed to feel a purification coming from the depths of their souls.
Some weaker beings even knelt down without hesitation in Michael’s direction.
Caelan narrowed his eyes.
Through the [Eye of Insight], he could clearly sense the powerful aura radiating from Michael.
He had to admit, Alice’s strength was indeed extremely formidable.
Even the current Caelan, without entering his rule state, still felt somewhat strained.
However...
Pressure was what created motivation!
Since you summoned your elder brother, then shouldn’t it be perfectly reasonable for me to call out my little sister to help?
The next instant, Caelan gripped his longsword with both hands and slashed fiercely toward Michael’s neck in midair!
[Molten Domain]!
In the sky, countless spatial cracks suddenly appeared.
Almost instantly, these spatial cracks expanded into a circular region in the air, enveloping Michael’s enormous figure completely within it.
Large amounts of molten lava began falling from the sky. The thick magma carried tremendous heat, as well as terrifying Power of Laws.
Almost at the same time, countless cracks appeared on the ground. Endless Hell Fire erupted upward like a volcanic eruption, shooting toward the sky!
When the magma and Hell Fire came into contact, the scorching heat caused the temperature of the entire Gamma City to rise by nearly ten degrees.
And this was still under the premise that Caelan was deliberately restraining it.
Otherwise, just that terrifying temperature alone would have easily ignited the entire city!
Under this scorching heat, even Michael’s body was affected.
Alice’s expression instantly became incomparably solemn.
She realized that she could not continue waiting. Otherwise, Michael probably would not be able to hold on for much longer.
And so, the speed of her prayer became faster and faster. At the same time, Michael’s body also rapidly became more solid at a visible speed.
"Roar!"
The [Divine Dragon] launched the first attack.
It bathed in the lava and Hell Fire, yet did not show the slightest pained expression. On the contrary, it seemed to be enjoying it immensely.
The next instant, its sharp claws viciously grabbed toward the position of Michael’s heart.
The [Divine Dragon] possessed all of Caelan’s skills, so its eyes likewise carried the effect of the [Eye of Insight].
And the position of the heart was the core of all Michael’s energy!
The sharp dragon claw emitted a metallic luster. At the same time, it was empowered by both the lava and the Hell Fire.
In Gamma City, the spectators watching the battle could not help but feel their hearts rise into their throats.
Would the powerful Michael die beneath the giant dragon’s claw?
At this critical moment, Alice finally completed her prayer.
At the same time, Michael’s chest suddenly emitted a burst of dazzling white light!
The intense radiance caused everyone to temporarily lose their vision.
Only after several minutes did the light gradually dissipate, and everyone finally saw the situation in the sky clearly.
However, the next scene left all of them dumbfounded!
No, what was going on?
Michael’s chest had actually been pierced through by the [Divine Dragon]!
Of course, as a price, one of the [Divine Dragon]’s claws had been completely severed. Scorching white flames were still burning around the wound, making it look as if it had been injured.
Caelan narrowed his eyes, his gaze moving back and forth between Michael and Alice.
Ever since he had summoned the [Divine Dragon], this was the first time he had seen the [Divine Dragon] injured.
That also meant Alice’s strength was absolutely greater than any opponent he had faced before!
A solemn expression involuntarily appeared on Caelan’s face.
As for Alice on the other side, her expression had become even more solemn to the extreme.
As Alice’s trump card skill, the summoned Michael practically possessed attributes equivalent to a max-level awakener.
In order to summon Michael, she had paid an enormous price!
But now?
Michael had only just been summoned, yet his heart had been crushed by that damned giant dragon.
Although he had severed one of its claws, what meaning did that have?
The summoning of Michael had already failed.
He had already been killed by the [Divine Dragon].
On the other hand, although the [Divine Dragon] had been injured, it still let out a heaven-shaking roar. Not only had its aura not weakened, it had instead become even stronger because of its anger!
"Damn it, just what kind of monster is that?"
Alice’s voice trembled slightly.
For a moment, a sense of despair even began to emerge in her heart.
The [Divine Dragon] moved again.
It opened its bloody maw, and countless light swords condensed inside its mouth.
"Roar!"
The next instant, an overwhelming Sword Rain once again surrounded Alice completely.
Alice gritted her teeth and immediately took out an item from her storage space.
As she crushed the [Space Core], her figure appeared one hundred kilometers away almost instantly.
"Human, you win this time. But don’t ever think you can kill me!"
Caelan froze slightly.
A strange expression appeared on his face.
???
Who said I wanted to kill you?
If I kill you, who’s going to take me to find the lord of the Celestial Realm?
Besides, if I really wanted to kill you, I wouldn’t have made the [Divine Dragon] hold back.
However, Caelan did not say these thoughts aloud.
Because he had already more or less figured it out. Alice had an especially proud and tsundere temper.
If he really said those things, then she probably would never help him find the lord of the Celestial Realm in this lifetime.
However, he still had to give her a small lesson.
A wicked smile suddenly flashed across Caelan’s face.
He raised a finger, then gently pressed downward.
[Instant Myriad Changes]!
The next instant, an enormous hollow suddenly appeared beneath Alice’s feet.
Before she could even react, her entire body fell into the hollow.
When Alice came back to her senses, she was horrified to discover that Caelan was standing right in front of her, staring straight at her.
"You, you!?"
"Don’t misunderstand, Miss Alice. I do not want to kill you. Let’s have a proper talk, all right?"
Alice gritted her teeth, then turned her head away.
She did not want to cooperate with this bastard.
Not even if she died!
"Bad guy! Even if you use force, I still won’t submit!"
"I, Alice, am the great—"
Before she could finish speaking, Caelan directly reached out and pinched her wing.
"All right, all right. Don’t be angry. These wings of yours feel pretty nice, huh!"
