Chapter 803: Chapter 389: Goddess of Forge and Flame (Part 2)
Below the young girl, whose features were unclear due to the distance, countless firelights flashed consecutively—innumerable flaming arrows projected from the land’s edge of the Hot Sea.
Are there others on the island? Impossible, with the number of flaming arrows, there must be an army.
Flaming arrows turned into a curtain of incandescent light towards Zoe’s position, and Li Ang forcibly transformed the Water of Magic using Arcane Power, erecting a water wall around the young girl.
Aw—aw—aw—!
On the flowing lava chest of the Molten Mountain Star Soul, a crimson flash skittered by, instantly severing its communication link with the Star Soul Greenhouse. Its tranquility reversed into murderous intent in a moment, vowing to annihilate Zoe before it.
The curtain of flaming arrows fell simultaneously, the dense descent powerful enough to snap all the lava tentacles of the Star Soul striking towards Zoe.
The Molten Mountain Star Soul lowered its head, conjuring a crashing wave with its horns conforming to its original form.
Li Ang directly launched a Decomposition Light Wave, a beam so bright it blinded eyes, striking the bull’s head.
This spell, imbued with Legendary Law, was only feared not to meet a strong adversary’s direct mark.
Even in madness, the Star Soul realized the power of this beam, tilting its head away. The cracked broken horn that was swept by the Decomposition Light Wave became even smoother than the left one.
Woo—!
The Star Soul’s assault slowed, plunging headlong into the water.
The water surface boiled violently, steam obscuring everything. Li Ang used a water wall to block the searing heat that could scald someone to death, seeing only the firelight gradually sink into the water and disappear.
"Li Ang."
Zoe flew over, having exited the divine state, and pouted: "Couldn’t talk to it."
"In that state, not being able to talk is normal, right? I didn’t expect you to even achieve brief communication with it."
"I felt like it wanted to talk to me, but something strange stopped it."
Li Ang said, "I saw it, something’s inside its body."
This Star Soul, though ferociously unmatched, was also surprisingly frail, with absolute power far below that of the few Star Souls previously; a single Decomposition Light Wave had frightened it away. Oh, there was also the Chaos Orb attack before.
Perhaps after causing the disaster to Lupus, it never calmed down, and the Light of the Star Soul was completely exhausted.
"Ah."
Zoe suddenly realized: "Where’s that girl?!"
"She’s already gone."
Li Ang told her that after the other side’s rocket barrage, she disappeared.
"She helped me," Zoe mused.
"Yes."
The arrival of the flaming arrow barrage coincided perfectly with the moment the internal force disrupted communication between the Molten Mountain Star Soul and Zoe. That distant archer, had she predicted this?
Li Ang looked towards the location of the figure, where only faint steam remained drifting about, and the direction from which the rockets were fired was also empty, leaving only the broken walls and ruins swallowed by lava decades ago.
"Wow, are you two alright?!"
After landing, three team members immediately surrounded them.
"We’re fine."
Li Ang told them: "Confirmed it was a Star Soul, but it’s definitely in a very wrong state."
"I feel like it looked even scarier than that Jenoside," Dorothy lightly patted her chest, with the Demon-Born Flower Vine beside her quivering along.
"Because the Jenoside merely looked alien, and that kind of softening body makes sense, but this Molten Mountain Star Soul was directly all shattered and twisted," said Li Ang.
Zoe, furrowing her brow, said: "I feel like it’s about to explode, typical Star Soul’s power flow isn’t like that."
Beside the young girl, starlight appeared, and Anna landed again in her young girl form.
The Earth Serpent said: "That Star Soul is in a painful lament."
"The previous hypothesis was correct, because the Star Soul went out of state, its power riot caused the lava to flood Pug Island Country."
Li Ang asked Zoe and Anna: "Can you feel why it turned out this way?"
"There’s... something prickly inside..."
"Can’t see clearly, but something is attached to its Star Core."
Zoe couldn’t organize her words clearly, so Anna spoke on her behalf.
Sizzle sizzle!
Smoke rose under Li Ang’s feet; the place they stood on was extremely hot, further exaggerated due to the Star Soul’s appearance, with the original hard black lava below once again showing firelight.
"Let’s move to a cooler place first."
Li Ang called everyone to ride on Salamander and move forward.
The direction he chose was naturally the one where the rockets were fired from.
On the way, the young girls at the shore, unable to clearly see the battlefield, first started asking questions.
"Where did that monster go?" Andasu said, from their height only steam was visible; they had to raise their heads to see a bit of that giant demon’s head, and Li Ang and Zoe were also barely visible in the steam.
"Dived away."
"Why would a Fire Attribute Demon dive?" Dorothy quipped.
"I guess this island is already ruined."
Li Ang analyzed, since the Molten Mountain Star Soul chose here to reside, it indicated there was originally strong volcanic power beneath this place.
But in the past, the existence of the Star Soul was actually a good thing, it was like the volcano itself. It had consciousness and could prevent the volcano from randomly erupting and causing destruction.
Maybe it was it that brought the hot springs and a warm pleasant climate, allowing the Lupus People to establish a nation on this island, prosper and develop until sixty years ago, even becoming a vacation spot for a time.
But the Molten Mountain Star Soul lost control, and that once beautiful natural environment transformed into an apocalyptic destruction.
"The uncontrolled lava flowing inside the island broke through the rock layers and tore the island body, even under the Inner Sea. Haven’t we seen this since we arrived? The entire Inner Sea seemed boiled. Its lower part can already lead straight to the island’s heart," Li Ang said.
