Chapter 1092: Chapter 77: The Divine Arrow Shocks the Enemy_2
Ah Dai was trying his best as he said, "I don’t even know what material these chains are made of; they are incredibly sturdy."
Yan Shi saw that Ah Dai and the others hadn’t come down for quite a while, so he jumped up to the upper levels of the palace, just in time to hear Ah Dai’s words. He approached him, looked at the chains, and said, "Ah Dai, can’t your Life Transformation magically morph into any shape? Would it be faster to saw through the chain if you turned it into a saw?"
Yan Shi’s suggestion was a wake-up call. Ah Dai hurriedly transformed his yellow-green energy into the shape of a sawtooth and rapidly ground it back and forth on the chain. Sparks flew, and the unknown metal gradually turned red under the rapid pulling of the energy saw. The surrounding temperature rose steadily, and the gap in the chain widened much faster. With a light "ding," thanks to Ah Dai’s relentless effort, the energy saw finally cut through the chain that had trapped Xing Er for two years.
The Elf Queen was overjoyed, "Let’s go quickly." Audi clutched his still frail daughter, and the party swiftly jumped down into the lower levels of the palace. As soon as they exited the palace, a cold voice echoed, "Thinking of leaving? It’s not that easy. Our Royal Palace of the Empire isn’t a place where you can just come and go as you please." As the wind rose, Byinlog’s figure landed not far from the palace doorway, on the rooftop. The Staff of Hades in his hand flickered with a pale blue light, as he intently watched everyone inside the palace.
The Elf Queen was startled by the old man dressed as a magician, whose presence exuded such immense pressure that it seemed even greater than hers. After having used the Elf Prohibited Spell, her strength, along with the four great Elf Envoys’, had decreased significantly. Seeing such a formidable opponent, she couldn’t help but show a slight change in her demeanor.
Upon seeing so many Elves, Byinlog couldn’t help but inwardly curse his luck; these Elves were indeed here to rescue the Elf Princess. Moreover, they were clearly top experts from the Elf Clan, especially the middle-aged Elf beauty, whose emanating energy fluctuations appeared to reach the level of a Mage. The palace was now in chaos due to the rampant growth of plants, and no one would be able to assist him in short order. So many powerful Elves—he feared they might not be so easy to deal with after all!
Ah Dai glanced at the Elf Queen, fully aware that in less than an hour, she and the others would vanish, and the palace was vast, with unknown obstacles ahead. The Elf Queen’s worrying gaze deeply touched his heart. Resolutely, he conveyed to the Elf Queen, "Auntie, you go ahead. Leave this magician to me. My Life Transformation can withstand any magic."
The Elf Queen replied anxiously, "No, we should leave together. Although this magician has strong abilities, we should still manage if we work together."
Grasping the Elf Queen’s arm, Ah Dai, looking at her pale face, said solemnly, "Auntie, please go. For the continuation of the Elf Clan, nothing must happen to you! I can handle this." After speaking, he used his arms’ strength and, lifting the Elf Queen, hurled her out amidst her exclamations. Ah Dai’s power was gentle, though he sent the Elf Queen flying, he ensured he did not injure her. Knowing this wasn’t the time for pride, Audi quickly exclaimed to be careful and led the Elf people out. Deep in his arms, Princess Xing Er gave Ah Dai a profound look, her eyes filled with concern. Before leaving, the seven Elf Archer Envoys each fired a swift Elf Arrow at Byinlog, catching him off guard. He urgently shifted from reciting an offensive spell to a defense one, barely blocking the assault, but the impact of the Elf Arrows still turned his complexion pale.
Yan Shi understood that staying here was useless and would only distract Ah Dai. He grabbed his brother and headed off, rushing through the garden before them to clear a path outside. The Elf Clan, whether mages or archers, were all experts in long-range attacks. They needed the aid of powerful warriors like him to perform better.
Byinlog was stunned after defending against the Elf Arrows. The powerful Elves had all withdrawn, leaving behind a human youth, seemingly underestimating him. Naturally, he could not let the Elves leave so easily and was about to pursue them when he noticed something that shocked him further. The plainly-looking youth shot two cold lights from his eyes, and a majestic, tranquil aura enveloped him, covering Byinlog in an instant. Though they were dozens of meters apart, Byinlog felt as if he was standing naked before the youth, fear rising in his heart. The single feeling this ordinary-looking youth gave him was strength. This formidable sense, even in the guards of the Emperor of the Sunset Empire, Quan Yi, Byinlog had never felt it. Why did such a young man possess such tremendous strength? Puzzled, Byinlog glanced at Ah Dai while muttering a defense spell quietly, raising a turbulent wind barrier in front of him to form a solid bulwark. Shielded by the blue barrier, Byinlog finally felt some relief. He thought to himself that such a powerful enemy should not be left alive—strike him down now while he is alone, and there will still be time to chase after the other Elves later.
