Chapter 2803: Victory of the Plan

~11 min read 2,019 words

Also because time and space were stripped, there was an abrupt square deep pit in the surrounding dense forest, and the bottom of the deep pit was smooth, as if the upper soil layer had been shaved off.

The crystal was still shining brightly even under the dim sky light. The "Clockmaker" stood beside the deep pit, continuing to watch her harvest with fascination.

It was just that her left eye turned abnormally, and her face moved closer to the crystal, and then she found that the three figures and the unicorn in the crystal were not normal, like three standing trees and one fallen tree:

"So..."

She turned to look behind her. In the surrounding dense forest, four large trees had turned into the appearance of Xia De, Luvia, Emilia, and little Liana.

The traces of the elf's spellcasting had not yet dissipated, and her emerald green eyes were emitting green ghostly light in the dim environment. The trend of the Eighth Ring life ring behind her had not weakened, and the spirit runes shining on the life ring proved that it was she who cracked the Thirteenth Ring warlock's Sublimation Language.

Of course, saying "cracked" was not accurate. To be precise, they didn't enter the range of the Sublimation Language at all, but the elf used her talent to make four fake bodies. This was a forest, her home field with the Sovereignty. If the "Clockmaker" hadn't been too nervous when facing Xia De, she should have had the opportunity to observe the flaws just now.

After all, no matter what, an Eighth Ring elf could not face the Thirteenth Ring warlock's Sublimation Language head-on; she just used a clever means.

"I thought you would limit the power of time because you were worried about me, and use your ultimate move as soon as you appeared. But isn't it a bit too much to open 'Sublimation Language' as soon as we meet? So, you have been promoted to Thirteenth Ring, why are you still so afraid of me? In the first two times, didn't I fail to defeat you and that dragon beast?"

Xia De asked.

"You..."

The Clockmaker also realized what had happened. She had originally believed from the bottom of her heart that she was not the opponent of the "God-Caller". At this moment, the Sublimation Language had failed, and her heart was even more panicked.

She looked at the elf girl who was holding a long sword that also emitted green ghostly light:

"You! You! Wait a minute, how is this possible? You are really real, are you... This is unfair! This is unfair! This is not right!"

"Witch Secret Technique—"

The elf girl who had just become an adult ignored her. The long sword had been raised, so the sound of a distant flute came from the wind.

The 【Time Flute】 was filled with green light in her hand. The World Tree material weapon completely accepted the sword wielder who possessed the priest bloodline and even inherited part of the Tree Father's power:

"The candidate of time is here. In the name of time, since you have already taken action against me, the Time War begins at this moment."

Karsenrik was spoken in a very cold tone. The "Clockmaker", who was in a short period of weakness after releasing the "Sublimation Language", had her left eyeball turn suddenly. As a candidate of the same kind, she saw some clues and said in surprise:

"You! You! Wait a minute, how is this possible? You are really real, are you... This is unfair! This is unfair! This is not right!"

"Witch Secret Technique—"

The elf girl who had just become an adult ignored her. The long sword had been raised, so the sound of a distant flute came from the wind.

The wind seemed to come from someone who was missing someone a long, long time ago, and that flying leaf was also going to a farther and farther place.

What sounded in the wind was the sound of time, and the flute sound didn't know who was missing whom:

"—Time Flute!"

The long sword was swung down by the elf, and the wind also brought new stories.

The concept of time was compressed into this sword. The swung sword did not form a huge sword mark, but the tip of the sword pointed at the enemy, and the "Clockmaker" clearly felt that time cursed her at this moment.

In the flute sound, all the time-type relics on her body failed. She wanted to use the ability of the angel-level magic eye to launch time return to let herself leave this place, but found that even that magic eye was suppressed in the flute sound.

But even in a short period of weakness, she was still a real Thirteenth Ring warlock. She wanted to fight back while resisting the time deceleration effect around her, but saw the "God-Caller" beside the elf also draw his long sword.

He didn't do anything, just stood there looking at her coldly, while the diviner who was watching her had a mysterious expression.

At the same time, the elf who completed the spellcasting slashed out a fatal blow forward in a true sense.

The turquoise light reached in front of her in the next instant. Although weak, the "Clockmaker" was not completely unable to fight the elf at this time. Although she knew that once the "God-Caller" took action, it would break the sacred duel, but thinking of the many rumors about the "God-Caller" and the unusual elf at this moment, she gritted her teeth, swung the thirteen needles on her hair, twisted them into a strand and threw them forward—

Clang!

Sparks splashed in the rain. This sound represented not only the collision between the sword and the needle, but also the collision between time and time. Even Xia De was dazed for a moment. When he looked around again in the slight dizziness, he only saw that the elf girl had already retracted her long sword, and the "Clockmaker" was gone.

"Does this count as winning? First trick her into using her strongest move, then you come to create pressure on her, making her think that everything about her has been seen through, and finally I stand by your side to form a deterrent..."

Xia De didn't continue, because the complex green leaf vein marks on the elf girl's right hand holding the sword had already emerged actively. These marks were even more complex than the marks on Emilia's hand at this moment. In the light, the brand added more dense patterns, which represented that Xia De's plan really succeeded.

"It seems to be a victory. The Clockmaker fled actively after the one-on-one duel began, so you standing by with your sword drawn doesn't seem to be judged as helping her. In a one-on-one situation, Elf, you defeated the Clockmaker head-on. In other words, the first battle of the Time War is over, and you have won."

The diviner lady who didn't take action throughout the whole process smiled and said:

"Although this success also has the credit of Xia De's plan, I have to admit that you have exceeded my expectations. I didn't expect it to go so smoothly. We actually relied on this kind of plan to win against a Thirteenth Ring?"

This time the elf girl didn't deny her identity, but shook her head gently:

"Although she left, it should only be a minor injury. Although she was eliminated in the Time War, if the winner of the Time War dies, she still has a chance to participate in the second Time War. She won't leave here. This Thirteenth Ring warlock will not be reconciled to this failure."

"But at least we have solved the strongest opponent nominally blocking the Chosen One ritual."

Xia De said with a smile, and asked Luvia again:

"What ranking candidate was that woman just now?"

"Fifth candidate. I think her special talent should be the ability to manipulate more time-type relics, which is actually quite amazing. Emilia is second, the twins are fourth, hmm..."

Luvia answered, but the elf girl was still not very happy. Her pointed ears drooped slightly, and her emerald green eyes looked at the distant forest, looking more worried than usual.

The launch of the Sublimation Language and the scaring away of the "Clockmaker" didn't take too long, so the third battlefield, which occurred the latest, was actually the first to end.

Xia De missed the girls in other positions, so he didn't stay in place and suggested going to help them.

The three acted separately. The elf who didn't like entering the city and Luvia rode little Liana to support Vanessa and Ms. Ilise in the dense forest, but in fact, they were the ones who didn't need to worry the most, after all, the two were almost the most capable among the girls around Xia De.

And Xia De went into the city alone to help Galina and Xivi.

He didn't worry about not finding them at all. The white light that illuminated the sky just now was too conspicuous. And when Xia De was about to enter the city from the forest, the sharp eyes of the owl flying in the sky saw the silver wolf running in the forest, and then dived down to grab him, letting the silver wolf fly into the sky:

"The battle in the city is over. Galina thinks they solved that halfling assassin, but Xivi thinks that although her secret technique is powerful, the other party died too easily, so maybe it's a fake death."

The "Emilia" in the city was naturally disguised by Flora, and the real Emilia was the one picking herbs in the depths of the dense forest.

"We are also very smooth on our side. However, I am very curious, how is the old city area now?"

"Hmm... two streets disappeared. Don't worry, before we took action, we confirmed that there was no one there."

The owl didn't grab Xia De and fly to the city area, but took him to fly further away:

"Everyone in the city is fine. Xivi stayed behind to clean up the mess. I hope the Church can accept the noise we made. Galina went to the forest to find Vanessa and the others five minutes ago. I will take you there, I hope we didn't miss the most exciting part."

It was just that although the owl flew very fast, when they landed in the area deep in the dense forest where the terrain had been permanently changed, the battle had already ended.

At this time, Galina, Luvia, and

The beautiful blonde witch spoke, and after Xia De nodded to the others, he knelt on one knee before her. Galina then lifted the cloak she was wearing, allowing Xia De to see the witch's fair skin beneath—only a small area of her right shoulder and her right arm were exposed.

And the spot where Vanessa had been "grazed" by the white mist was now wrinkled, looking like the skin of an elderly person.

The Witch of the Earth pulled at her cloak, not wanting Xia De to see this scene:

"Don't look."

"Don't move—Breath of Time."

Rubbing the Ring of Longevity, Xia De took a deep breath, but although the miracle was successfully activated, there was still no major change to the area on Vanessa's arm.

"The skin in this area has been accelerated by at least a hundred years. If you cannot reverse a hundred years of time, then the miracle is ineffective."

Miss Eilisse reminded him from the side. Xia De was just about to excise the flesh on her arm and regrow it using "Active Soil" when he set his sights on the ring on his hand:

"Ring of Longevity... offsets the effects of miracles or relics that consume lifespan."

He then placed the ring directly onto Vanessa's hand. Whether it was intentional or not, Vanessa let out a sudden "Ah," allowing everyone to see Xia De personally putting the ring on her.
