Chapter 493: Counterattack of the Elemental Land (1)

Fifth Defense Zone.

Various types of Element Spirits float in the sky; the crystal-blue firmament is like an inverted ocean, with tens of thousands of Element Spirits swimming between the mountains.

Fire Elements transform into birds, their tail feathers dragging crimson-gold flowing fire across the sky; Water Elements transform into carp, their scales refracting the sunlight to reflect rainbow halos; Wind Elements shuttle through the crystal mountain ranges, carving cyan energy ripples into the air with every beat of their wings.

A Lightning Element, its entire body crackling with electricity, steps upward on stairs condensed from Stardust, causing ripples to spread beneath its feet on the Element Rainbow Bridge.

Below the Element Rainbow Bridge, the Molten Domain on the right and the Azure Water Realm on the left are separated, yet they maintain a mutual balance through elemental particles.

Elemental whispers drift through the air, a symphony produced when elemental particles of different attributes resonate.

This Lightning Element gradually manifests its own appearance, its entire body changing into the shape of a Human, though the sound of electric arcs unique to Lightning Elements still remains on its body.

"Antinuoya, our squad that went out to scout the Cyberk has lost contact; I have a Task for you."

The Lightning Element woman hears the elemental transmission from the Temple Elder at her ear.

"Alright, I understand, I'll be there right away!"

Antinuoya raises her hand to slice open a spatial fold, and the Lightning Element condensed at her fingertips transforms into a small communication spell, flying into the energy network along her fingertips.

In the clear energy network, elemental particles of various attributes are spreading along the veins of the Element Rainbow Bridge toward the core Temple.

Antinuoya's figure moves, transforming into a deep purple silhouette as she flies toward the Temple Hall.

Just as Antinuoya arrives at the Temple Hall, she feels a powerful air pressure appear above her head, and a hurricane descends beside her.

"Yo, Antinuoya, were you also summoned here by the Great Elder?"

As the hurricane dissipates, a man wearing a cyan robe appears before Antinuoya, his well-defined muscles visible beneath the robe.

"Danbaifan, you guy, can't you settle down for once when you come here?"

Antinuoya shrugs helplessly, her tone sounding somewhat resigned.

As she speaks, she uses her right hand to comb her long black-purple hair into place.

"By the way, are they only sending the two of us this time? Won't the number of people be a bit low?"

Danbaifan looks around, and seeing that no other members of the Elemental Race have arrived, he asks in confusion.

"He is already waiting for you inside the Temple, come over quickly!"

The Temple Elder walks slowly to the entrance of the Temple Hall, his amber eyes looking at Danbaifan and Antinuoya, his tone serious.

The Thunder Gem on his Scepter erupts with blinding electric light, causing the doors of the Temple Hall to begin closing.

"Coming right away!"

Seeing the serious expression of this Elder, Antinuoya and Danbaifan quickly enter the Temple Hall.

Inside the spacious hall, the emblems of every elemental race are carved into the walls.

In the hall, a person wrapped tightly from head to toe, with only a pair of eyes exposed, is already standing there; upon seeing this person, Antinuoya and Danbaifan say in unison.

"Daikeli? How could it be him?"

The Temple Elder who just called the two in walks to the front of the hall and strikes his Scepter hard against the ground; the Thunder Gem erupts with a burst of elemental power, and immediately after, the environment around the Temple begins to change.

One can see Cyberk, dressed in silver-white clothing and encased in pitch-black armor, using cylindrical canisters to collect members of an elemental squad.

Those members of the Elemental Race who have not been captured continuously release their elemental power, trying to escape the Energy Force Field set up by the Cyberk; they elementalize their bodies, but the moment they rush into the Energy Force Field, they collide and send ripples through it.

In the end, not a single member of this elemental squad escapes the Energy Force Field; all are captured by the Cyberk into the cylindrical canisters and loaded into a silver-white, streamlined aircraft.

"The Cyberk have attacked our squads more than once; if our Elemental Race does not fight back, this is no longer a simple conflict. The Cyberk have declared war on us; how can our Elemental Race swallow our pride?"

The Temple Elder says with an agitated tone, and the Thunder Gem on his Scepter flashes with several azure electric arcs in response to his emotional fluctuations.

At this moment, a sharp, clear cry tears through the space of the Temple Hall, and a bird transformed from Fire Elements flies into the Temple Hall, its burning tail feathers painting Blood Runes on the hall's ceiling.

As the bird lands, the surrounding temperature rises significantly, and a woman with long crimson hair and a graceful figure walks out from the raging fire; her bright, reddish eyes look at everyone present, and wisps of flame emerge from her red lips.

"I have already gathered the clansmen of the Molten Domain; we must launch a counterattack against the Cyberk and make them pay for their previous actions!"

Seeing that the Patriarch of the Molten Domain has arrived at the hall, the Temple Elder composes his emotions and speaks to Antinuoya and the other two.

"The Zerg previously sent us a cooperation proposal; although the Cyberk's main offensive focus is currently on the Zerg, it is hard to guarantee whether the Cyberk will launch a large-scale attack on us later. Your Task is to head to the area where our Patrol Squad is currently located and place the Elemental Giant Rock there. Daikeli will be responsible for placing the Elemental Giant Rock, while Antinuoya and Danbaifan are responsible for protecting his safety while he places it."

Antinuoya and Danbaifan look at the fully wrapped Daikeli and answer in unison.

"Please rest assured, we will definitely complete the Task of placing the Elemental Giant Rock."

"Elemental Giant Rock, won't the Cyberk's Energy Force Field interfere with the exploration range of the Elemental Giant Rock?"

Upon hearing the Task arranged by the Temple Elder for Antinuoya and the others, the red-haired woman parts her lips slightly, and accompanied by wisps of flame being exhaled, she asks in confusion.

"It will, but if the Elemental Giant Rock is cleared by the Cyberk, then our Temple will also obtain the specific location of the Cyberk. The number of Elemental Giant Rocks the Temple intends to use this time is not small. You three go; time is not abundant."

"Yes!"

After Antinuoya and the others leave, the Temple Elder looks at the red-haired woman and says.

"Chidanjin, why did you come so early this time?"

Chidanjin uses her right hand to brush her fiery red hair back, her tone indignant.

"Nearly 100 of our clansmen in the Molten Domain have been captured by the Cyberk; as the Patriarch, how can I not be anxious?"

"Do not be impatient; after the other Patriarchs of the Elemental Race arrive, we will discuss the issue of sending troops. His Highness has already decided to agree to the Great Elder's proposal to launch an attack on the Cyberk and rescue our captured kin!"
