Two circles of energy clashed fiercely at the dragon claw, and as a wisp of black smoke dissipated in the palm of the dragon claw, this deadly strike was intercepted by Rein.
However, although it was intercepted, Rein’s expression remained solemn.
Because judging from the intensity of that strike just now, the strength of this avatar of the Nether Sea Goddess Hela was significantly higher than last time.
This couldn’t help but make Rein scrutinize the current form of the Nether Sea Goddess Hela.
"Blasphemer, I intended to deal with you after crushing this insolent offspring of the Dragon. I didn’t expect you to have the guts to e down from the airship."
The Nether Sea Goddess Hela glanced at the giant dragon that was Rein’s avatar, and the smile on her delicate face gradually faded, as if recalling some unpleasant past.
"So deities do ambush too. I always thought only despicable wanderers would do such things." Rein mocked while quickly assessing the situation.
At the same time, he glanced swiftly at Menia, who had transformed into a giant dragon, and at the Red Dragon Tasa.
This was the first time he saw Menia’s transformation, or rather, the transformation of a direct offspring of the Imperial Royal Family of the Dragan Empire into a giant dragon.
The Red Dragon Menia turned into was more slender than Tasa, and the shape of its horns differed, with a greater degree of curvature.
Moreover, there was a beautiful pendant under her neck, which, if Rein’s sensing was correct, should be a precious witch artifact that expanded along with Menia’s transformation.
No wonder, so many times before, enemies had mistaken him for a direct offspring of the Dragan Imperial Royal Family.
Meanwhile, Tasa’s condition wasn’t good. It appeared lethargic, and the wound running from its lower abdomen to its back was surrounded by corrosive black water.
Apparently, in that surprise attack by the Nether Sea Goddess Hela, the Red Dragon Tasa had lost more than half of its bat strength in a single blow.
"Prince Menia, quickly take Tasa back to the Federation, leave this to me!" Rein said in a low voice.
He knew that with Menia taking Tasa, it wouldn’t be possible to traverse the vast Summer Sea to the faraway Dragan Empire while continuously pursued by the Sea God Sect.
The airship convoy had flown for about four hours just now, which meant they were currently about six or seven hundred kilometers from Zetaya, not far at all.
Only by quickly returning to the Federation could they possibly escape pursuit and gain a moment of respite.
But this time, the Nether Sea Goddess Hela surprisingly wasn’t angered by Rein’s words. She gave Rein and Menia a sidelong glance with her beautiful eyes and sneered instead:
"Mortal, what, trying to anger me? To create a chance for the Dragon’s offspring behind you to escape?"
Rein thought to himself, this is bad, it seems that the Nether Sea Goddess Hela has learned from past mistakes and is much harder to deal with than before.
"Anger you? You flatter yourself. I’m merely trying to avoid accidentally injuring allies. With you and your underlings of worthless fish and shrimp, it’s not enough to make me run away." Rein said calmly.
Nevertheless, seeing that verbal taunts failed to provoke the Nether Sea Goddess Hela, Rein immediately decided to try something stronger.
"By the way, Nether Sea Goddess Hela, as a deity, do you dare to duel me?" Rein slightly raised his chin, glanced at Hela sideways, and said.
"What?!" Upon hearing this, Hela’s smile instantly froze.
All around, especially the people from the Sea God Sect, including the Sea God Sect Pope Egil, looked at Rein with wide-eyed shock, as if saying ’Kid, don’t you know you’re facing a god, a god!’
Even the ’Leviathan Giant Whale’ Jorgandman blinked its car-sized eyes, looking at Rein.
"Mortal, you’re courting death!"
Hela’s previous calm demeanor had pletely vanished, and she was trembling with rage, the corners of her eyes twitching uncontrollably.
Yet seeing this scene, Rein was secretly delighted.
Good, it seems that the threshold for provoking anger has merely been raised.
Now it’s easier to handle...
