Chapter 110 - Queen's Name: Alice
Countless sound waves coalesced into a menacing aura, launching an assault on the four werewolves.
However, this soul-based attack had limited impact on the werewolves.
This was because their thoughts had been overridden by violent instincts upon their transformation.
In their berserk state, they remained impervious to mental assaults.
Scarface boldly rushed toward the Elf Queen, resembling a ravenous wolf among a flock of sheep.
A barrage of arrows targeted Scarface, yet these projectiles failed to breach his formidable defense.
“Sound Blade!”
Elf Queen's countenance turned icy as she skillfully played her lute once more.
This time, a blade-like energy shot forth, leaving a gash on Scarface's body.
Astonishingly, Scarface appeared unaffected by the injury and continued his reckless charge toward Elf Queen.
“Empress!”
The Elf soldiers cried out in shock upon witnessing this perilous situation, but they lacked the time to provide assistance.
Even Elf Queen had not anticipated Scarface's relentless pursuit.
Just as Elf Queen was about to strike a chord on her lute once more, an unexpected figure materialized in front of Scarface.
The abrupt appearance of this figure startled Scarface, causing him to abruptly halt his advance.
However, his speed was so blistering that he couldn't bring himself to halt.
That swift figure sent Scarface sprawling through the air.
“Is it you?”
Elf Queen was taken aback at the sight of this figure.
Wasn't this the individual who had glimpsed her while she bathed?
“Your Majesty, what occurred earlier was genuinely a misunderstanding. This time, I aim to assist you in confronting these werewolves to make amends.”
Loong Chen beamed at Elf Queen, showcasing a set of gleaming white teeth.
Elf Queen gazed at Loong Chen, her expression carrying a hint of doubt and caution.
She wasn't quick to place trust in humans.
“Young man, are you out of your mind? Didn't you express your intention to join us? Why are you aiding her?”
At that moment, Scarface regained his composure and demanded angrily.
“You're quite simple-minded. On one side, we have a beautiful young lady from the Elf race, and on the other, an unsightly werewolf. It's only natural I'd choose them.”
Loong Chen remarked with a smirk on his face.
Scarface was instantly incensed.
“Cursed humans, can't you keep your word? I'll teach you how unwise your choice is.”
“Elf Queen, once I eliminate you, the werewolf army will annihilate the Elves. At that point, the Ancient Life Tree will belong to us, and the Elf women will become slaves to the Werewolves!”
Scarface declared this fiercely, irrespective of the race, Elf women held an irresistible allure.
“Your end is near.”
Upon hearing Scarface's words, the Elf Queen responded with a cold snort and prepared to take action.
However, Loong Chen intervened.
“I promised to deal with them for you as a way to make amends for the previous misunderstanding. The impure blood of these werewolves cannot taint the pure hearts of the Elves.”
The Elf Queen was taken aback, but she refrained from acting further.
She was curious to see what this human had in mind.
Loong Chen charged at Scarface, who displayed a ferocious expression on his face.
“Then I'll tear you apart first.”
Subsequently, Scarface wielded his razor-sharp claws, resembling blades, and aimed them at Loong Chen.
Loong Chen sneered with disdain and invoked the Thunder God's Descent.
Scarface's attack cut through Loong Chen's body, yet it failed to harm him in the slightest.
Scarface's expression twisted with disbelief, but Loong Chen didn't give him the opportunity to think.
The Thunder Fist struck Scarface's chest, propelling him backward.
After mastering the Thunder God Descending technique, Loong Chen possessed the capability to defeat an overlord-level mutated beast even without utilizing the Power of Titan.
“The trial of thunder!”
Before Scarface could rise to his feet, another bolt of lightning, as thick as an arm, descended from the heavens and struck him.
“Did you witness that? Your multitude of wicked deeds has reached a point where even the heavens turn their gaze away,” Loong Chen taunted.
Loong Chen couldn't resist adding a bit of mockery.
In this moment, Scarface's fur stood on end, and the scent of singed hair filled the air around him.
“Ah, you insignificant insect! I'll rend you apart!”
Scarface bellowed in fury and lunged toward Loong Chen once more.
Loong Chen retorted, “Is that the only phrase you know?”
He smiled with a chilling demeanor and invoked the Earth Domain, causing Scarface to feel an overwhelming force closing in on him.
Scarface collapsed to the ground.
“Your time has come,” Loong Chen declared.
A Tyrannical Saber materialized in Loong Chen's grasp, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared beside Scarface, slashing down with his saber.
In the next instant, a wolf's head severed cleanly, and blood gushed forth like a fountain.
“He perished just like that?”
The Elf Queen found herself in disbelief. Scarface, a prominent figure in the werewolf army outside, had met his end at the hands of this remarkably young human?
It was truly astonishing.
Following Scarface's demise, Loong Chen swiftly dispatched the other three werewolves with lightning-fast precision.
As the Nightmares' assassins witnessed the shifting circumstances, they unexpectedly made a hasty retreat.
“Your Majesty, considering the extent of my assistance, a word of thanks wouldn't be out of place, would it?”
Loong Chen gazed at the Elf Queen with a friendly smile. While he hadn't paid her much attention before, he was now studying her closely.
She possessed an extraordinary charm. Even among the Elves, renowned for their beauty, she stood out.
“Oh? How would you like me to express my gratitude?”
The Elf Queen inquired with genuine interest.
“For instance, you could arrange for an Elven maiden to become my wife. Or, if you're willing, you could be my wife yourself,” Loong Chen suggested after some consideration.
“Impudent! You must show the proper respect for the Empress!” a member of the Elf Queen's personal guard interjected angrily just as Loong Chen finished speaking.
Loong Chen was taken aback and responded, “You gave me quite a fright. If she declines, then we'll leave it at that.”
He playfully patted his racing heart and continued.
“Your Majesty, may I inquire about your name?”
The Elf Queen was taken aback by this question, struggling to grasp the human's intentions.
She had already agreed to express her gratitude, and yet he had posed such a simple request?
“My name is Alice Cather,” she eventually replied after a moment's contemplation.
“A fine name,” Loong Chen nodded approvingly, while Alice couldn't help but roll her eyes at his awkwardness.
His choice of words left much to be desired.
“Your Majesty, we have tabulated the casualties. Three of our fellow clan members perished this time, and ten others suffered severe injuries,” reported an elf warrior who approached Alice with a bow.
Upon hearing that three of her kin had lost their lives, a profound sorrow overcame Alice's countenance.
Elves had always cherished peace. Even after venturing into this world, they preferred seclusion within the Eternal Forest, avoiding any ties to the outside realm.
Nevertheless, news of their possession of the Ancient Life Tree had somehow leaked, shattering their tranquil existence.
Over the years, due to the covetousness of foreign races for the Ancient Life Tree, they had suffered the loss of numerous clan members.
If not for the intricate terrain of the Eternal Forest and their ability to manipulate plants and trees,
Within the forest domain, their strength remained formidable, allowing them to barely endure until now.
