Chapter 2948: The Unexpected Moon

~11 min read 2,010 words

The witch, the sorceress, and their life rings were all encompassed within that strange "moon." At this moment, even the people in the city felt that the light of the blood moon had weakened a bit.

The two-colored moon continued to rise in height, eventually reaching in front of the time crack. Thus, two equally unusual moons collided silently and merged with each other in the red night sky.

In the first few seconds at the junction of the two, the color of the moon and the moon dimmed together. But just as those who witnessed this scene thought the blood moon would disappear, a deafening roar suddenly sounded from the night sky, and then the surface of the blood moon began to wriggle violently.

A corner of the originally dimmed blood moon lit up instantly, and the "Moon of Madness" that had re-lit itself directly swallowed half the volume of that two-colored moon.

The two ladies in the moon still wanted to resist, but as the blood moon became clearer and clearer, and the pits and bumps on its surface wriggled and deformed, eventually, the two-colored moon shattered in silence, and they fell toward the bottom along with the light debris filling the sky.

Ang~

The figure of a silver giant dragon swept under them, so the falling ladies all fell onto the dragon's back.

The moonlight dragon looked up at the blood moon in the crack that was turning into flesh and blood, and immediately lowered its own altitude. At this moment, although the silver light of the gods still existed on its scales, it still felt that the flesh and blood under its scales were all restless.

"Are you two okay?"

The dragon form's powerful telepathic ability made its voice appear directly in the minds of the two ladies who were covering their heads. Sitting behind the moonlight dragon, the silver moonlight around its body helped them recover quickly.

"I'm temporarily fine."

"I'm temporarily fine too. Xia De, I suspect that when this time crack opened, the Moon of Madness in the opposite time and space had not just appeared at all. I originally planned to wait for the council's Great Witch of the Moon to arrive and use the council's power to shield the light of this moon. Now it seems it's really too late, but it's good that you came. Now that the users of the three-colored moonlight are gathered, let's try again."

"What do I need to do?"

The moonlight dragon spread its wings, preparing to fly back to the height just now. Under the blood-colored night sky, its figure was exceptionally conspicuous.

"Now, you use the Night Curtain Seal mentioned by Danister to protect us, and then at the right time, radiate moonlight toward that moon together with us. Danister and I will first coordinate and fuse our moonlight, but your silver moon can accommodate our light, so there is no need to make adjustments in advance,"

The witch said as she pressed her skirt and stood up on the dragon's back in the strong wind, and then reached out to pull Miss Danister up.

"That's fine, I'm going to fly up—Night Curtain Seal!"

The red-haired girl watched the pitch-black night curtain unfold from around, until it completely wrapped the silver dragon. She was a bit worried about Xia De's consumption, but since Xia De didn't object, it meant he had no problem.

The two ladies held hands again, and the 【Elf Sovereignty】 they held together was emitting a faint light at this moment. Although it was defeated by the "Moon of Madness" just now, this time, with Xia De casting a spell to shield the moonlight, their state was actually much better than the first time.

So the moonlight rose on the dragon's back. With the experience of the last time, this time the two-colored moonlight of the fish-tail pattern appeared faster than the last time. And in the eyes of the girls on the ship, this was simply like the moonlight dragon carrying a huge two-colored moon and crashing into the blood moon.

But Xia De certainly wouldn't drill directly into the time crack. It just felt that its back was getting heavier and heavier during the flight. At first, it was like carrying Mia, not needing to care at all, but now it felt like it was carrying an entire giant mountain.

Of course, this was not the point at the moment. The point was that as the dragon got closer and closer to that blood-colored moon, besides the accumulation of spirit, it felt that the life ring within its soul was also changing.

Blasphemy-【Red Moon】 and Enlightenment-【Flesh】 were becoming more powerful because of this moonlight, and the manifestation on the outside was that Xia De the dragon's body became larger and larger while spreading its wings, until even the 【Night Curtain Seal】 could not completely cover it.

Finally, when the ladies on the dragon's back were ready, the moonlight dragon itself had even become larger than the moon they summoned:

"Get ready, Xia De—three, two, one!"

The witch and the sorceress pushed that moonlight toward the top at the same time. Immediately after, amidst the dragon's roar, pure silver moonlight was sprayed out.

The silver moonlight hit the tail of the two-colored "moon," pushing it forward as if pushing it toward the time crack. And in this process, the light of the silver moon permeated into the two-colored "moon," making the two-colored moon larger and larger in the process of flying out.

Yellow, red, and silver colors blended together. The moment it crashed into the time crack, it was like a new galaxy added to the starry sky, lighting up in the night sky like a white sun.

The dazzling light not only made the Ringed Shushi in the city and forest cover their eyes, but even the girls in the captain's room of the Brilliance Messenger turned their heads to avoid the water curtain that had completely turned white.

Because Ajelina was short, she stood at the very front of everyone, and so the little princess was crying uncontrollably while covering her eyes at this moment.

This dazzling white light lasted for ten seconds before subsiding. After the white light dissipated, although the starry sky at night was still blood-colored, that layer of blood color had become much dimmer.

Looking carefully, the moonlight dragon, which had turned to the size of a mountain, was still flying in front of the crack, spraying silver moonlight continuously to impact the blood moon behind the crack, which barely controlled the illumination of the blood moon.

And the two ladies on the dragon's back were once again subjected to backlash and had to stop. The slightly weaker "Red Moon Witch" even sat on the dragon's back while covering her chest:

"How can Xia De persist for so long? Did he drink that kind of pink essence again?"

"He is absorbing moonlight. The stronger the Moon of Madness, the stronger he becomes."

The sharp-eared witch with a pale face said softly. Although she could barely stand, she also felt that she could come at most one more time.

"So, as long as Xia De blocks here and waits for the Moon of Madness to naturally fade away, is that it?"

The red-haired girl sitting down asked, but the witch did not agree with this statement:

"The accumulation of spirit will also make him go crazy. Even if the soul is strong, in the face of the blood moon of the same origin, he cannot achieve complete shielding of mental influence... Let's do it again."

She reached out her hand to the red-haired girl again and wanted to stand up, but suddenly a buzzing sound came from the night sky.

Behind that time crack, the wriggling surface of the blood moon suddenly cracked open, and then eyes opened in that blood moon.

Before she could feel the weirdness and fear, the blood-red rays emitted from the blood-colored eyes collided with the silver moonlight sprayed by the moonlight dragon in the next second. The violent fluctuation of spirit and the wind pressure formed by the diffusion of elements almost made the two ladies on the dragon's back fall off.

And the blood-colored moon that had completely turned into a ball of flesh had dozens of dense eyes open at the same time. The red rays condensed into a beam, finally swallowing the silver moonlight, and then pierced through the body of the silver giant dragon.

The ladies on the dragon's back only felt the dragon's back shake violently, and then their feet were empty, so they fell from the high sky along with Xia De, who was forced to exit the transformation state due to serious injury. Amidst the screams that came one after another in the captain's room, the water curtain could no longer track the figures of the three people falling separately at this time.

"I'll go catch them!"

Miss Ilayse said she was going to control the big ship to fly toward the sky, but was pressed on the shoulder by Luvia:

"Wait a minute, adjust the field of view downward. What is that?"

The fall happened unexpectedly, but in fact, neither of the two ladies was injured. It was just that the abrupt disappearance of the Night Curtain Seal made them dizzy for a few seconds as they were extremely close to that time crack. By the time they recovered their consciousness, their bodies were descending rapidly in the strong wind.

Danister Gustav hurriedly went to look for Xia De's trail and soon discovered that Xia De, whose half body was dyed red, was falling like he had lost consciousness below the two:

"Xia De!"

The red-haired girl, who was closer to the bottom, adjusted her body direction and reached out her hand toward him. Only after getting closer to Xia De did she discover that there was a huge penetrating wound from his shoulder blade to his back.

She tried to grab him while holding back her tears, but then discovered at this moment that Xia De's wound was recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye under the illumination of the blood moon.

The rapid fall made the whistling wind sound even more piercing, but she ultimately failed to grab Xia De. Because at the moment her fingertips were about to touch the falling figure, a lady who came from below gently hugged the Outsider.

The long black hair, although also reflected into red, still retained a dark trace. The expression on her face as she looked at Xia De was one of slight worry and tenderness.

The red-haired girl then retracted her hand, stopped falling in a daze, and hovered in the air. Miss Olanod, who was higher above her, also followed and floated behind her, and looked at the woman wearing a beige hat who hugged Xia De:

"Are you a thirteenth-ring? Are you..."

She asked with doubt, but couldn't see the tears in the corners of the eyes of the red-haired girl who had her back to her.

This was not sadness for Xia De, who had taken a deep breath and opened his eyes, but sadness for the sorceress who appeared in front of her. "Moon Curse Master" Helena Carter gently touched Xia De's cheek under that crazy blood moon, and then looked up at her student whom she hadn't seen for many years. ===== CHAPTER 2949 =====

"Are you a Thirteenth-Ring? Are you..."

She asked with confusion, but failed to see the tears at the corners of the red-haired girl's eyes, who had her back turned to her, sliding down her cheeks.

This was not out of sorrow for Xia De, who had gasped for air and opened his eyes, but for the female sorceress who had appeared before her. "Moon Curse-Master" Helena Carter gently stroked Xia De's cheek under that wheel of a mad blood moon, then raised her head to look at the student she had not seen for many years.
