Chapter 2983: The Real

~11 min read 2,020 words

Its gaze moved briefly to Thomas Bennett's back. Even though it wanted to squeeze out everything from this mortal at this time, the voice still had a gentleness and charm that made people unable to generate malice:

"I will not take their lives, nor will I ask for their souls. I want them to do some things for me. The story of this woodland is over, but there will be more stories in the future, right?"

The pink snow fell heavier and heavier, spreading on the ground as if the earth were flowing with blood.

Its voice echoed in the wind and snow. Thomas Bennett, who sat in the snow and closed his eyes, nodded again after a moment of silence:

"Okay. But please collect everything I offer after my Time War with this elf has a result."

It laughed in the wind. Only Xia De knew that this laughter definitely did not represent joy; it was mockery:

"Okay."

The little elf, who was embraced by the Great Elf, trembled. She felt that she was almost burned out because of the battle just now, and not everyone could forcibly draw the Sword of Light after using Sublimation Language.

If Thomas Bennett really got the help of that woman's voice that sounded very nice, Amelia really didn't know what she should do.

But she found that Xia De still didn't stop everything in front of her from continuing. The rotating pink snowflakes swirled around Thomas Bennett. His Life Ring appeared when he couldn't even control it himself, and then the pink light was all injected into his Life Ring.

Then, under the snow surface of the square, a huge mermaid-shaped shadow swam past. Spirit Runes were filled into Bennett's Life Ring one after another, 【Charm】, 【Desire】, 【Reproduction】, 【Craving】, 【Ocean】, 【Mermaid】...

Eleventh ring promoted to twelfth ring, twelfth ring promoted to thirteenth ring. The newly added Spirit Runes not only had the whisper elements symbolizing the identity of the unknowable relic, but the other three types of Spirit Runes were also complete.

When his Life Ring behind him officially reached the thirteenth ring, it did not mean that there was another official thirteenth-ring sorcerer in the material world in 1854. Because the Life Ring collapsed inward while reaching the thirteenth ring, and finally shattered into powder in the pink snow.

The pink snowflakes and the fragments transformed from the Fate Ring merged into his body. The phantom image of the giant tree and the mermaid intertwined appeared behind him, looking even stranger than the black shadow that had just absorbed the infinite resentment and hatred.

At this moment, he had abandoned the Ringed Shushi system and achieved a brand-new growth under the shackles of the Ancient One's power. Although he was not yet enough to be called an evil thing, he was definitely not a human being.

Even if Amelia was hidden behind Xia De by the Great Elf, she could feel how amazing the changes her opponent had produced.

She thought the strength of the opponent at this time had exceeded expectations, so she hoped that Xia De and the mature fellow clan could solve the problem next. But she didn't expect that when she was trembling and feeling the changes in the surrounding elements, she was gently pushed by another golden-haired elf and pushed out from behind Xia De.

Xia De reached out to pull Amelia in time to prevent the little elf from really falling to the ground by accident. And when Amelia looked up tremblingly, she found that her opponent had indeed become a completely non-normal appearance.

He was still sitting in the pink snow, but at this moment all the light could not illuminate his figure. He seemed to be here, and he seemed to be everywhere like the heavy snow.

Amelia had never encountered such a powerful whisper element. Even if she gathered her courage to raise her long sword again at this time, she instinctively knew in her heart that this was not an opponent she could deal with.

But Xia De didn't intend to pull her behind him again. However, Xia De didn't push Amelia again like the elf in the forest, but signaled Amelia to watch with him.

Thomas Bennett, who gained powerful power through the contract, did not spend too much time in the process of gaining power from the existence hidden in the darkness of the Music Hall door. But when he stood up, he seemed to be floating rather than standing.

The pink mermaid mark appeared on his brow, and the pink light rotating behind him seemed to be directly connected to this dark world.

His control over the "Time Transfer Station" still existed, plus the newly gained power, even for Xia De, this was not a strong enemy that he was 100% sure to defeat.

In the wind and snow, the gentle laughter was everywhere, and the half face in the deep darkness was still staring at Xia De.

Thomas Bennett raised his right palm and squeezed it lightly a few times, feeling the brand-new powerful power. Then he opened his palm toward the three people not far in front of him, and then the energy impact composed of pure spirit and elements bombarded the "Night Seal".

Even if Xia De was prepared in advance, and there was help from the elf behind him, the night curtain still retreated ten meters in the snow.

Three parallel footprints were clearly reflected in the snow. It was just that when the shield disappeared, Thomas Bennett, who was still floating in the air with his feet not touching the snow, did not continue to make a move on the three.

He looked at his right hand obsessively, as if it were a rare treasure. Even in the snow, the cold sweat on Amelia's forehead had flowed down.

The pink heavy snow had become the power he controlled. When the gift given by desire was all integrated into his body, Amelia even felt that the air was so humid that water droplets were about to condense directly on the surface of her clothes.

The sound of clattering seemed to be the approach of the sea tide in the distance, and the terrifying giant mermaid shadow swimming under this pink snow further explained what was about to happen.

The little elf could simply imagine the sea flooding this city, and then she would need to fight the enemy who mastered the power of the ocean while choking on water.

She was trying to think about what trump cards she had left in her heart, while Thomas Bennett's right hand beckoned to the ground, and the cane flew into his hand, turning back into black wood, and then turned into a branch with water droplets.

The branch was not very long, but in his hand, it seemed to be a sharp sword capable of splitting the sea. Amelia thought he would launch an attack, but unexpectedly, in the rumbling sound of water, Thomas Bennett cut off his right hand holding the branch cleanly with his left hand.

Amelia didn't even react, and Bennett slashed toward his side with his intact left hand without changing his face, and a black time crack appeared immediately.

He threw his severed hand and the branch toward the three people in a relaxed tone:

"Elf, I lost this Time War, I admit defeat."

At the moment the last word fell, he had turned into a light and drilled into that time crack.

The crack closed, and the bleeding right hand and the World Tree branch fell into the pink snow in front of Amelia. The blood made the pink snow look more enchanting, and the glowing green leaf pattern on the back of the severed hand made the elf, who was stunned there and didn't figure out the situation, even more surprised.

She subconsciously raised her right hand, and then the glowing pattern on the back of the severed hand in the snow flew straight to the back of her hand.

The leaf pattern, which was already dense, became more dense and real at this moment. Amelia even took a breath because of the sudden surge of power, and then was choked by the cold air into her lungs, coughing a few times in a low voice.

All this was not an illusion. Thomas Bennett voluntarily admitted defeat after gaining powerful power, and then drilled into the time crack and disappeared.

Xia De bent down to pick up the branch with water droplets in the snow, and then confirmed that this branch was the same as the burning branch left after the demon died, and the branch wrapped in clear wind left after the black dragon beast was sent to be buried, all came from the wreckage of the World Tree:

"It's finally over."

He said in a low voice, and then the three people standing on the square in the snow heard the laughter from the darkness behind the Music Hall door. It had no intention of chasing at all, as if it had known this scene would happen, so the smiling voice asked softly:

"Amelia Sianuo, the second candidate of time, do you understand the situation now?"

Amelia felt that she was like facing a test paper that she couldn't understand at all at this moment.

What happened just now was too complicated, and the ups and downs of her mood made her at a loss. However, she at least knew that she had really won. As for facing the existence in the darkness behind the door, it was not her responsibility.

So the little elf who figured out all this grabbed Xia De's arm and hid most of her body behind Xia De again, and the laughter in the pink snow became more enchanting:

"Thomas Bennett signed a contract with me, agreeing to give everything to me after the duel with you."

"Then, elf of the Moon Creek clan, now that he has escaped to the past through the time crack, then the one who should go to him to collect the debt is the me in the Frost Month of 1854 now, or the me in the early summer of 1854 who is talking to you now?"

"Amelia, answer her."

Xia De said softly, and the older elf girl behind Xia De also encouraged the little elf with her eyes.

Only then did she suppress the fear in her heart, hiding behind Xia De and saying in a low voice:

"It should be... the you in the early summer of 1854... After all, the you at that time has not signed the contract yet... Wait, the you now has also experienced the early summer of 1854, should know about this, um... it should still be the you in the early summer of 1854 to collect the debt, after all, it was the you at that time who signed the contract with him."

The seductive female voice giggled, just like the laughter of a girl in her youth swinging on a swing:

"But when the contract was signed just now, Thomas Bennett already said—he sacrificed everything to me on the sixth day of the Frost Month of 1854. So, the me in the early summer of 1854 cannot go to him to collect the debt at my time point, after all, the contract had not taken effect at that time."

Amelia's little head also understood this truth. In all contracts, the date is very important. Of course, you can't collect the debt before the date:

"Then the one who collects the debt should be the you in 1854 now. You now also know about this contract, and the date is also consistent, so you should be able to go to collect the debt, right?"

It was Xia De who continued to deny Amelia's idea:

"But Thomas Bennett has already gone to the past. In that era, it had not signed a contract with Bennett yet. Since no contract was signed, how can the existence talking to us find him to collect the debt?" ===== CHAPTER 2984 =====
