Chapter 2980: Sublimation Language VS Sublimation Language
The rumbling sound overhead was the Moonlight Dragon fighting the Bone Dragon in the night sky. But even so, the moonlight still clearly illuminated the street in front of the inn, but it could not illuminate Thomas Bennett's hidden figure.
Amelia stood with her sword, panting slightly. The gorgeous sword dance just now did not consume much of her energy. Trying to capture the enemy's figure at this moment, she suddenly recalled the scene when the dragon maids in human form played hide-and-seek in their spare time when they were deep in the primitive forest in the Fifth Era, holding giant trees and dancing randomly with a smile, just to force their companions out.
At that time, the big-tailed green dragon maid, Miss Vilde, said to the trembling little elf:
"Playing hide-and-seek should be happy. Searching everywhere is too boring. As long as the trees you dance can block every space, even if they transform into ants and hide, you can still find them."
The forest of that year was far from being as calm as the dark night of today, and the calm night made it easier for Amelia to find her target. The little elf whispered "Oak Stick Technique," and the surface of the 【Flute of Time】 flashed with light.
She took a deep breath, raised her long sword, and then danced wildly as if the long sword were a stick.
The eight-ring Spirit Rune "Enlightenment - Dragon" shone with spirit light. The "long stick" that seemed to be dancing wildly tore through the air at this time and erupted with a sound similar to a dragon's roar. The figure of Elfina Vilde, wearing an apron, seemed to overlap with the flat-chested elf at this moment, and space even wrinkled where the sound waves passed.
Amelia's pointed ears shook gently, and she actually found the hidden target.
So the elf grabbed the hilt of the long sword with her right hand, and while pointing the sword tip at Thomas Bennett, who was gathering strength to cast spells, her left hand touched the silver crown on her head. Part of the power of the ancient Elf King was borrowed, and light and heat gathered into a thaumaturgy that did not belong to her:
"Solar Ray!"
There was no technique to speak of. The pure, violent, and hot light stream cut through half the street and bombarded the hidden figure. Thomas Bennett, who never expected to be found so easily, had ambiguous gray light flashing in his right eye, trying to solidify the light stream, but found that it was completely useless.
Amelia, who was second in rank and had studied at the Witch Academy, completely crushed the servant of the Ancient Tree in terms of time talent. Thomas Bennett, who could not dodge in time, had to raise the lantern in his hand again:
"Tree Skin Shield - Yggdrasil Form!"
In the light, the brown giant tree trunk appeared and blocked in front of Thomas Bennett. Amelia had heard Xia De mention his lantern and knew that any thaumaturgy cast through that lantern would be enhanced by the burning of World Tree materials.
Therefore, when the hot light stream bombarded the tree trunk but only scorched most of it, Amelia was not surprised at all. The silver crown continued to emit cold brilliance in the dim light. The little elf recalled the scene when she went out with that witch who was like a violet and saw with her own eyes that she calmed the storm on the sea with just a wave of her hand:
"Only a storm can knock down a big tree."
The words Xia De said jokingly at some point were recalled by Amelia. So, without learning, the power belonging to the ancient witch borrowed through the rules of the "Time War" appeared. The figure of the demigod witch wearing a big hat flashed by, but it was still noticed by the silver giant wolf flying in the air.
Amelia said the power she wanted to borrow:
"Witch Secret Technique - Song of the Storm!"
The flute sound in the swinging long sword became more and more urgent at this moment, and the dead silent city suddenly became windy.
High in the sky, the silver giant wolf shattered the skeleton giant composed of undead and tree vines with one claw, and then looked down to see Amelia dancing with her long sword and merging herself into the wind. The green storm collided head-on with the big tree rooted on the street. Finally, the giant tree was uprooted and scattered into flying light spots in the air, merging into the dark night.
And Amelia, who walked out of the storm, clutched her chest, feeling that she was spinning too fast and wanted to vomit, and regretted listening to Ajielina's advice to eat a pie before leaving the big ship. However, she controlled herself well and did not vomit, continuing to dance with her long sword and pressing Thomas Bennett step by step.
The two were an eleventh-ring and an eighth-ring. Normally, the eighth-ring Amelia absolutely had no possibility of winning. But she had top-level relics and ancient alchemical items like the 【Flute of Time】 and 【Elf King's Authority】, plus the elves had really gained a lot since the Fifth Era. From the beginning of this battle, Amelia had the upper hand.
The summoned thorn bushes were soon stirred to pieces by the sword blade, the time clones also disappeared like bubbles in the sound of the 【Flute of Time】, and the oak acorns hit like bullets and then exploded on the spot, but all melted in the witch's light.
The power of the tree called upon made half of the city turn into a forest, but soon both sides relied on the forest to call out their respective tree men. The revived tree man army fought in the city, making even more noise than the elf and Bennett.
Amelia was surprised to find that Thomas Bennett did not seem as powerful as she thought. Finally, when the battlefield returned to the starting point, on the roof of the Accordion Inn in the dark city, the emerald green sword light finally penetrated the center of the lantern.
Then, with the sound of a mirror shattering, Thomas Bennett, who was vomiting blood, knelt on one knee on the roof. The lantern light went out, the effect of the abnormal time flow disappeared completely. Although Amelia was a little embarrassed, she was still standing. The lantern slipped from Bennett's hand, fell to the ground along the roof, and turned into a piece of dust after shattering.
Amelia didn't talk nonsense with him and took advantage of the victory to stab the innkeeper's heart, but the latter rolled and dodged.
He also slid toward the bottom along the roof. Amelia wanted to chase, but from the street below, the powerful element fluctuation symbolizing the Sublimation Language appeared suddenly. The sound of the clock hands turning clicked and echoed throughout the city, and a huge clock dial appeared in the night sky illuminated by the silver moon.
Dense tree vines were wrapped around the wooden dial, and at this moment, the three hands in the dial were clearly motionless.
The scene in the dark city did not change because of the appearance of the Sublimation Language, but when Amelia held her sword and turned her head left and right, she clearly felt that this place was no longer the world of the previous second.
Thomas Bennett's voice came from high altitude, and the three hands in the huge dial spanning the night sky began to rotate counterclockwise in this voice:
【Prisoner of time, unable to escape the cycle!】
At this moment, Amelia clearly felt someone pulling her backward. She stabbed the 【Flute of Time】 into the ground to stabilize her figure, only then realizing that it was not space but time that was retreating:
"Is it a large-scale time reversal effect similar to the fairy tale maze Xia De used in Moon Bay City?"
Time in this dark city was frozen, so the Sublimation Language did not affect the scene, but made the traces of their battle, the summoned objects, and their respective physical states flow backward.
But Amelia clearly felt that she, in the rapid time reversal, did not recover regardless of injuries, spirit consumption, or physical strength consumption, but Thomas Bennett in the center of the huge dial in the air was clearly recovering to the appearance when the battle just started bit by bit.
In other words, if the time reversal was completed, in the new round of battle, it would be the Amelia with incomplete state fighting the inn owner with full state. Even if Amelia defeated him a second time, because he was in good condition, he could still launch the Sublimation Language to come a third time.
This unreasonable Sublimation Language might only be used in this specific scene. Without the grace of the Tree Father, time in the material world is not so easy to reverse. But this special Sublimation Language combined with Thomas Bennett's immortality in frozen time could almost be called an invincible combination.
"Invincible..."
The thoughts of the little elf with pointed ears in the time reversal dispersed again. She remembered that it was a winter, Miss Vilde and she were sitting by the fireplace in the maid's lounge roasting fire, and the two chatted about the rumors of the most powerful witches of that era.
The big-tailed dragon girl was very sure at that time that Principal Mana Feilian'ana was the most powerful witch of the era, and she believed in it deeply. And Feilian'ana, who happened to come here to find Fiona, also heard their conversation and smiled and pointed out:
"There is no such thing as 'invincible' for mortals. Everyone has weaknesses that can be restrained. For example, if someone threatens me with my students, I might also lose. Don't be afraid when encountering a strong enemy, think about whether the other party has weaknesses."
Amelia, who admired that beautiful ancient witch like a violet, kept this sentence in her heart from then on. And as for Thomas Bennett's weakness, she had thought about it after learning the story of the Bennett family.
So, in the humming of the emerald green crown on her head, the counterclockwise rotating brass Life Ring behind Amelia was suddenly wrapped in a mass of huge steam fog.
The shadow of the Life Ring rotated rapidly in the thick white fog. When it appeared again, although the thirteen-ring jade wheel did not mean that Amelia really had the power of the thirteenth ring, the powerful time resistance that came from it was enough for her to cast spells in the opponent's Sublimation Language effect.
Fingers flicked the 【Flute of Time】, and in the melodious flute sound, the emerald green light covered the elf skirt armor suitable for battle sent by Grandma Sianuo.
So, in the rotation of the body, the gorgeous elf-style banquet dress appeared on her. The golden-haired elf, who seemed to have changed from "Cinderella" in the story to a princess, lit up the Spirit Rune in the center of the Life Ring behind her. Pure white color spread from her to the dark city illuminated by the moonlight, and the little elf wearing the crown recited her low-ring Sublimation Language—
【Pure as the beginning, heart without dust, one thought is eternal.】 ===== CHAPTER 2981 =====
