Chapter 241: The Last Pure Land and the End of the Academies
“It's Big Sis Tan Han!”
“Big Sis Tan Han! Quick! Go talk so sense into Big Sis Xiao Han!”
“What's wrong?”
Tan Han, who had hurried over, asked.
The battle here was a bit intense, but her arrival didn't cause much panic.
“Big Sis Xiao Han took out so many Spellbooks, and just used the basic Spellbook to fight them!”
“Tho… though it looks like Big Sis Xiao Han is evenly matched with them right now…”
“What?”
Tan Han was also surprised by this maneuver, but she quickly understood sothing.
For a mont, she didn't know what to do.
Step forward to break up the fight?
Or sothing else?
At this mont, Tan Han could understand Xiao Han's actions, but even she felt it was too risky.
But just then, the Aphrodite World Tree suddenly produced a strange phenonon.
“What is that?”
Tan Han's gaze was also grave, but she probably had a guess.
“There's a high probability that the Aphrodite elves triggered a hidden rule. Don't forget they also held a ritual once.”
“This… Then we should quickly call Big Sis Xiao Han back, or there will definitely be danger!”
At this mont.
Atop the Aphrodite World Tree, Mona and several other elves stood on the tree's branches.
The strange phenonon produced by the World Tree was precisely their reward after completing the ritual before, the ability to offer a prayer to the Aphrodite World Tree, that is, the Mother God.
And the Mother God would respond to the request of the Aphrodite Forest Elves.
The Aphrodite World Tree would, at this mont, shelter a region of the forest and the elves from external invasion.
This kind of prayer couldn't make the World Tree launch powerful attacks to kill enemies; the prayer could only be a protective request.
And the true fatal blow… would be completed by the Sea Race.
At this point, the Sea Race's ritual had already been quietly completed.
After all, a lot of ti had passed.
The Sea Race's Sea's Marvelous Crown would stir up a monstrous tsunami to subrge the only remaining safe land.
The seawater would erode the land, extinguish the forest fire, drown the Beast Academy, and defeat foreign enemies... And the Aphrodite World Tree would protect this region from erosion.
The elves had already felt the malice from the witches.
The continuous shrinking of the map, wasn't it just to gather all the remaining people together?
At that ti, the entire exchange competition map would be completely eroded by the Ancient Battlefield, and their Aphrodite Forest Elves would have the last laugh.
So what if those witches could fly?
Amidst the natural disasters and Phantoms of the Past in the Ancient Battlefield, they would eventually be killed.
Perhaps surviving until the end was useless, but the other party would die continuously.
Death represented a decrease in score.
Unless the other party conceded, but based on their understanding of witches, would those arrogant witches be willing to concede and withdraw from the competition just to preserve their score?
Moreover, even the Sea Race would be eroded by the Ancient Battlefield.
Only the place sheltered by the Aphrodite World Tree would beco the final pure land.
At this mont, the Aphrodite Academy's actions were no longer focused on scoring.
The Witch Academy was already prepared to overturn the entire competition.
If they could still endure this, they would truly die of frustration.
Since the witches had once used the Sea Race to destroy the Fallen Land, the elves could now replicate this thod.
At this mont, the contestants from the Beast Academy and other scattered academies were gathered.
By directing the spearhead at the dwarves allied with the Witch Academy and that imnse threat, the War Fortress, they could easily gather everyone together.
Using the Sea Race's hand to kill with a borrowed knife, and then using the witches' hand to erode the sea with the Ancient Battlefield to get rid of them after they've served their purpose.
Although the plan was good, it still seed crude.
After all, the elves wouldn't get any points during this period, but they could make everyone lose their potential score ceiling to natural disasters.
Didn't the witches want the points here?
She'd rather throw them all into the sea than let the witches get them.
It could be said that this thod of making sure no one had a good ti was truly disgusting.
Of course, the elves didn't think there was anything wrong with this.
At least, it was far from what the witches had done.
“It seems an unplanned situation has occurred.”
Under this strange movent, everyone was attracted by the commotion from the Aphrodite World Tree, and I was feeling a bit dispirited.
Coupled with the continuous failed attempts, I hadn't properly vented my emotions through fighting, and was even a little sleepy.
The anger of this group of people I had provoked earlier all turned into confusion about the unknown at this mont.
“What have you elves done!”
At this mont, not only the Beast Academy but also contestants from other academies began to question the group of elves directly.
For this situation to occur at this juncture, the elves must know sothing.
Similarly, they were also looking for a way out.
By blowing the current conflict out of proportion, that witch would also have to stop and take it seriously.
And the result was indeed as they expected.
I stopped.
The mont I knew I couldn't achieve a level like "Domain," I knew that the battle I had set up was futile.
Although it was a pity, realizing the reason for failure was also valuable.
“Big Sis Xiao Han, you were simply insane just now!”
“Quickly pick up the Spellbooks! What if they get damaged like this?”
“It's fine, Spellbooks are tougher than you think,” I shook my head and explained, then picked up the Spellbooks and stuffed them into my body.
“Xiao Han, the anomaly over at the Aphrodite World Tree…”
Tan Han also ca over and asked .
“Let's see how it goes. I'm not omnipotent, am I,” I said with a shrug.
However, I looked back in the direction of the World Tree.
At this mont, the World Tree there seed to be holding up a huge protective shield, covering a large area.
Needless to say, it was a hidden rule triggered after the ritual's success.
But was the hidden rule just to prop up a shield?
That was a bit too boring.
“That's true. Plans can't keep up with changes. I originally planned to start the final battle tomorrow morning. Now, let's go over and see what shenanigans the elves are up to.”
“Wait… Big Sis Tan Han, Big Sis Xiao Han, the ritual light pillar on the Sea Race's side is gone…”
With Shi Huiyu's reminder, Tan Han and I instantly thought of a certain possibility.
“Are the elves preparing to perish together with us?”
“Not necessarily. Didn't they put up a protective shield? Their targets are probably these remaining contestants, and us.”
“We can fly. They shouldn't forget that.”
“But the War Fortress can't. Even a behemoth like the War Fortress would struggle against a tsunami, right? And this structure is clearly not waterproof.”
“Looks like we're in big trouble. Go inform the dwarves.”
As we started to move, monstrous waves surged in the sea area.
Enala stood on the crest of a wave, the fish tail beneath her shimring under the protection of the seawater.
At this mont, she had once again obtained the Sea's Marvelous Crown, and this ti, she was the one in control of this power.
She wanted to personally overturn this final chessboard.
But she also had to marvel at the thods of the Aphrodite Forest Elves, who were actually willing to let the tsunami subrge them as well.
But when the Aphrodite World Tree raised its shield, she knew the other party's trump card.
But it didn't matter.
After this tsunami, the only remaining safe piece of land on the map would beco sea.
Although the sea would also be eroded by the Ancient Battlefield, they still had ti, probably…
But the Sea Race Academy had two points and ranked second.
Even so, it wasn't a loss, was it?
In the end, this exchange competition would just be a battle between the Sea Race and those barely surviving elves.
At least, that's what the Sea Race believed.
As for those damned witches, so what if they could fly?
She would control the seawater to slap them down into the sea.
At this mont, she was the Sea King crowned as king!
A legitimate existence.
She didn't believe that the tsunami she controlled would not be powerful.
A single witch could control a tsunami, cross mountains, and subrge an area as large as the Fallen Land.
What was so difficult about her subrging a forest?
Their Sea Race had received the blessings and protection of the sea.
After obtaining such authority, they would only exert this power to a greater extent.
“There's no escape now, is there? The Ancient Battlefield is behind us, and a tsunami is in front. No matter which way we retreat, it's a dead end, right?”
“I have to say, those elves are quite ruthless when they get serious. The Beast Academy is probably cursing their mothers right now, huh?”
“It's not just the Beast Academy anymore. There are also people from other academies who finally got out of the Ancient Battlefield, thinking they were safe, but actually entered into an even greater threat.”
“Then what about the dwarves? Even if we can fly, the number of dwarves is much greater than us witches.”
“Although I'm very unwilling, we have to give up now…”
Ai Ke's voice ca through.
Although she spoke decisively, the reluctance in her tone was still audible.
“There's no ti to hesitate, I can already see the black shadow on the sea!”
The person scouting from above shouted to us.
“The Sea Race moves really fast. Maybe they opened their shield so decisively precisely because they saw the Sea Race starting to stir up the tsunami.”
“Does this count as being played by the elves?”
At this mont, no one had expected this result.
After all, this developnt benefited no one at the present stage.
The only beneficiary, the Sea Race, had occupied the land and killed so many contestants.
But they themselves would bring disaster upon themselves faster.
Once the sea area ca into contact with the Ancient Battlefield, the erosion of the sea would beco even more rampant, spreading as quickly as a drop of ink in water.
So what if the elves only cared about themselves?
Surviving until the end couldn't increase their rank.
It could be said that this result was also brought about by the choices of various academies in the face of resistance, a result from which no one could benefit.
The closer it got to the end, the more ruthless everyone beca when they went crazy, as if they had learned bad habits from the Witch Academy.
I feel that the most frustrated party right now is probably the Beast Academy.
It feels like they've been useless the whole ti.
Other academies were all showing off, while the Beast Academy couldn't fly, had no other special ans, and had the most diocre strength, basically just here to provide points for the exchange competition.
“Brace for the first impact! The tsunami is here!”
With this shout, the Witch Academy and the dwarves sprang into action.
As for the others, they had already begun to find ways to protect themselves.
Of course, so people ran directly towards the Ancient Battlefield.
After all, one would die under a tsunami, but could still survive for a while in a sandstorm.
And we would also witness the first collision between the erosion of the Ancient Battlefield and the erosion of the sea.
“Xiao Han, what are you doing?”
Seeing use the Protection of the Elental Spirit of Water and head directly towards the tsunami, Tan Han asked hastily.
“Going to try a new thod.”
“Is that so… Then I…”
I just said that simply and then went off into the distance, not hearing what Tan Han was about to say.
But even if I had heard, I wouldn't have reacted.
Even though I had the protection of the water elent, it didn't an everything was safe just by hiding in the sea.
The most terrifying thing about a tsunami was also the turbulence inside.
The interior of a ferocious tsunami was not calm; being swept away by it, one would be battered by various things, unable to control oneself, with an extrely high mortality rate.
And the thod I ntioned was naturally the “Resonance” thod.
I had tried this thod before.
Although I couldn't fight against a fully ford tsunami, I never intended to fight it from the beginning.
Instead, I went to learn, to practice.
After all, we were already in the midst of suffering.
If I still couldn't learn anything, it would be a real loss.
The surging tsunami at this mont surpassed the height of the tallest trees, ultimately swallowing them in the most violent way.
The raging forest fire in the distance showed its timidity at this mont.
The seawater, carrying trees and charcoal, rolled with thick smoke as it continued towards the distance.
How similar was this scene to the Fallen Land back then?
Enala finally experienced the feeling the Sea Race should have at this mont.
This was very much in line with the style the Sea Race should display in the exchange competition.
But for so reason, Enala couldn't feel happy at all at this mont.
Maybe it was because the Sea Race had been suppressed by others from the beginning until now?
Or perhaps the power of the tsunami did not et her expectations, and she didn't understand why.
Watching the others being swept into the tsunami, those who died would be randomly revived anywhere, but most likely in the Ancient Battlefield area or the sea.
What awaited them was also death.
Only actively withdrawing from the competition was the best choice.
But even so, Enala still saw an anomaly in one place.
“That is… ice?”
At this mont, Tan Han didn't hesitate.
She directly transford into Ancient Glacial Ice, using her control over the freezing cold to directly condense solid ice to resist the tsunami and protect the War Fortress.
Even a Super Consumption Spellbook seed slightly insignificant under such a natural disaster, but Tan Han, with her own strength, protected the massive War Fortress behind her.
As the seawater surged, the condensed ice beca thicker.
After withstanding this first wave of impact, the subsequent difficulties were also reduced by more than half.
“That Tan Han sure has a lot of tricks, even protecting that group of dwarves,” Enala complained as she looked at the solid ice in the distance.
But at this mont, the Sea's Marvelous Crown on her head began to loosen, a sign that everything was about to stop.
She could feel the power she controlled gradually losing its connection to her, a feeling she was very reluctant to part with.
“Savoring that past power here? Imrsing yourself in power that doesn't belong to you is very dangerous.”
“You… Yang Yuehan?”
Enala looked at the figure that had just erged from the seawater.
A water-elent-transford spirit was protecting her and lifting her to the surface.
“Hmm, how does it feel to flip the table?”
“You still have the leisure to chat with now?”
Enala asked with a frown.
“Why not? The tsunami isn't much of a danger to us. Tan Han and the others can fly. Even if she wants to protect that group of dwarves, her thods are more than enough, aren't they?”
My gaze shifted to the solid shield of ice in the distance.
Tan Han was more “rciful” than I had imagined.
She could have completely ignored those dwarves, and the contract wouldn't have said anything.
It was just a pity that she still did it, but of course, I had no objections.
“What? Are you here to show off that our thods are aningless to you! I admit I can't beat you. This is the end of the exchange competition. If you want to kill , just do it!”
At this mont, the Sea's Marvelous Crown completely shattered, and a pearl fell into her hand.
She knew there was no need for her to run now.
Admitting one's own downfall is a difficult thing, but Enala had accepted it because she had exhausted all her ans.
More importantly, in her contact with the witch before her, she had already ford the idea that she could not be her enemy.
She no longer had the courage to cast a spell on , especially when she was all alone.
“The Sea Race's part in this exchange competition is pretty much over. I also thank you for drawing the final period on this match. Although we lost a lot of points, we saved a great deal of effort.”
“The Aphrodite Academy and those elves aren't all dead yet. You shouldn't be happy too soon,” Enala said as a reminder, seeing that I was about to make a move.
“A shield that can withstand a tsunami and seawater erosion must have a limited duration. After you Sea Race people leave, we'll have plenty of ti to wait. After dealing with that group of elves, there's still a match between and Tan Han.”
“You're going to have internal strife… No, you never took this exchange competition seriously from the very beginning, did you…”
She finally ca to this conclusion, which even she found absurd.
“From the very beginning, I indeed didn't take this exchange competition to heart. What you think is a passionate exchange competition, I only feel is a waste of my ti. You can probably tell from my actions, right? I did so many things just to vent my dissatisfaction with this competition. In this match, apart from my opponent Tan Han, the only one I might rember is probably that guy Aqier. It's a pity Aqier is gone, so naturally, only Tan Han is left.”
“You've never taken anyone else seriously…”
“To say it arrogantly, that is indeed the case.”
After pouring out the words in my heart, I sent her away directly.
So things are better said than left unsaid.
After saying them, I felt refreshed all over.
The main reason was probably the so-called script.
It's a pity this kind of thing can't be said.
I can only vent my frustrated emotions alone.
In others' eyes, I probably really look like a madwoman, right?
And the battle I promised Tan Han was also to break the so-called script.
I want to see if the so-called protagonist of the script… will she also… fail under the gazes of so many people?
Now, let's go see those elves.
After dealing with them, we will have a decisive battle on that last pure land to determine the winner once and for all.
