Chapter 3487: Moonlight Ray · Second Form

The passage of time was more unfavorable to Xia De and Sister Dailin. The appearance of the phantom and reflection meant that the flesh-and-blood city was gradually becoming materialized, and there was not much time left for them.

"Moonlight Wheel!"

The huge light wheel held up by Xia De's right hand slid toward the front amidst a buzzing sound. The light wheel collided with the blood-colored light curtain blocking the mimic, splashing countless blood-colored and silver light spots. Although the light wheel finally cut open the light curtain, it still silently dissolved into the flesh-and-blood city beside the mimic.

The violent consumption of spirit had already made Xia De's breathing unstable. Taking advantage of Sister Dailin's flames turning into a dragon to clear away another batch of blood-colored humanoids crawling out of the blood lake, he took a short breath.

He asked in his heart:

"Is the remaining spirit enough to deploy a Wonder?"

【If you use the Match Girl, you can only summon snowflakes and silver moon, and cannot ignite any match;】

【If you use Tree's Kiss, the seal cannot take effect on the House of Mimics in its current state;】

【Sleeping Princess, Water of Wisdom, Cinderella, Mermaid Princess are ineffective against the current situation;】

【For the minimum consumption of Clock Tower Lovers and Crystal Light, you cannot pay the spirit for the time being.】

"Then how did the demon catalyze such a powerful relic?"

Seeing that the reality of the flesh-and-blood city was becoming higher and higher, even if he could successfully expel the 【House of Mimics】, the island of Fatumunster would suffer a great disaster. Xia De knew he couldn't wait any longer. Since the fairytale Wonders couldn't change the current status quo, he could only pin his hopes on the power he possessed that had the highest mystery level.

"Sister, help me fight for an opportunity."

He said to Sister Dailin. Although the sister was expressionless and had no indication, Xia De knew the sister must have heard it.

Sure enough, Sister Dailin then manipulated the black flames fused with the power of Primordial Fire and death to ignite the entire lake surface below, temporarily preventing the mimic from drawing power from the blood lake.

Then she held that dark golden sickle and rushed forward, wrapped in the surging sea of fire. The originally scarlet sea of fire was also turned into black representing death by the flames attached to the sickle. And when Sister Dailin collided with the phantom of that flesh-and-blood city, amidst the booming explosion, the entire House of Mimics shook violently again.

At this moment, even the ring-wielders on Fatumunster Island noticed that the phantom of the flesh-and-blood city in the sky was becoming transparent as it swayed. But a few seconds later, it returned to its original appearance.

As for the blood lake above the 【House of Mimics】, the blow of the Chosen of Death finally made the flesh-and-blood city temporarily dissipate. Although the four-stage mimic didn't look injured, the blood light around it had dimmed to the extreme.

Sister Dailin clearly consumed a lot in this blow, and the whole person disappeared directly into the fire. Xia De then saw clearly that the sister at this moment was actually not the main body, but a clone.

However, the sister's disappearance didn't make the summoned flames disappear. In that sea of fire, Xia De, who had grasped the opportunity Sister Dailin fought for, had completed the charging.

The spirit remaining in his body was all converted into pure silver flames, and then combined with the moonlight that seemed to be his own talent, it appeared in Xia De's palm. With the bottom of his palms pressed together, the silver light ball between his palms became brighter and brighter. Xia De felt that what he was holding was like a mountain.

At the moment Sister Dailin disappeared, he also happened to be unable to restrain this powerful power anymore. Combined with Adele's guidance on energy projection and Xia De's own understanding of spellcasting, he accumulated the power of Moon Fire and moonlight fused together in his hands, and then pushed it forward at this moment.

This was not any brand-new wonder; this was the most basic power he mastered:

"Moonlight Ray · Second Form!"

The booming sound was the sound produced by the collision of moonlight and space. Although it was just a small silver light ball in Xia De's palms, after being pushed out by him because there was no restraint, the light ball expanded to be even larger than Xia De himself.

The pure silver light ball blasted forward, carrying the thin, long silver light trail behind it, appearing in front of the mimic in an instant, and then swallowed the mimic in the next moment.

Even without observing with the naked eye, Xia De could know that the other party definitely couldn't survive. Although what his eyes observed was that he pushed out a light ball, that was actually just an anomaly produced because the energy was too concentrated. The reality was that the essence of this wonder hadn't changed; he just fired the Moonlight Ray in an alternative way. It was actually an energy impact.

The moonlight stagnated in front of the mimic for less than 0.5 seconds. After swallowing it, it continued to fly backward with undiminished momentum until it hit the flesh-and-blood wall directly behind it and disappeared amidst a loud noise.

There was an extra deep pit on the wall on the other side of the blood lake because of this. The flesh-and-blood tissue in the deep pit tried to heal itself slowly, but even though this was the core of the House of Mimics, those blood-red lights still couldn't dispel the faint moonlight clinging to the wall.

The fourth-stage mimic in the guise of a manservant didn't even have any residue left, and Xia De was also not feeling well. He only left the minimum limit of spirit to ensure he could still fly. At this moment, he was panting heavily and falling slowly, and finally stopped before really falling into the blood lake.

The blood lake that lost control no longer rippled but slowly returned to calm. The House of Mimics continued to shake. Xia De hoped that the island of Fatumunster wouldn't have such a violent earthquake.

However, this was of course not over yet. He pulled out the snake fang from the scabbard, took a few deep breaths, and prepared to fly to the other side of the blood lake as soon as possible to clean up the "Flesh of the Firstborn" and then go close that door. Such a violent consumption of spirit was a rare thing for him. Even though he had jokingly said that he had the talent of "breathing to restore spirit," he was indeed in need of rest at this moment.

But at this moment, an accident happened. While Xia De's short "weak period" hadn't ended yet, the blood lake under his feet suddenly surged upward, and then the blood water turned into a giant mouth and swallowed toward Xia De.

Although Xia De was weak, his perception ability hadn't been reduced. He perceived the abnormality below at the first moment. He couldn't perform spatial movement here and could only fly, but he couldn't perform rapid movement because of the loss of spirit.

He immediately cast a spell with both hands to fire flames downward, trying to evaporate that "giant mouth," but this was completely useless. Just as the blood lake giant mouth was about to swallow Xia De—

"Ang~"

A white stream of light rammed Xia De away, but Aili itself was swallowed by that blood-colored giant mouth because it couldn't dodge in time. Xia De in the air didn't even wipe off the blood stains on his face, stunned there looking at where Aili disappeared. Then, as Little Liana wearing golden armor and the ice maid Winnie flew over, he plunged downward into the blood lake.

Thick blood surrounded him from all directions, trying to penetrate into his body from every pore of his skin. They succeeded. Xia De's body was actively accepting these strange blood waters, and then after swallowing them, transformed them into his own power.

Xia De, who was swimming toward Aili further below at this moment, suddenly understood that the falling sensation he felt above the blood lake seemed to be not just because of danger, but also because his body seemed very willing to swallow this kind of thing.

"Ang~"

Above the blood lake, the shocked Little Liana also wanted to enter the blood lake, but was stopped by Winnie. This time it was not because of danger, but because there were other opponents here.

On the shore on the other side of the blood lake, flesh and blood gradually took shape, and then the mimic in the guise of a manservant appeared again, or rather, was reborn from the 【House of Mimics】.

Winnie looked at it and said:

"So, you are really the incarnation of the 【House of Mimics】. The blood lake doesn't dry up, so you are actually immortal, right?"

The mimic flew up again:

"No, if the sister just now appeared in her main body and hit me directly, I could have died. But that would mean the 【House of Mimics】 would give birth to a brand-new consciousness, and you would have to face a new opponent."

It looked at the golden shining armor on Little Liana, but even after mobilizing the oldest memories, it couldn't find out what this was.

It asked Winnie curiously again:

"The God-Caller is probably not coming back, but what are you? Elemental life forms have entered this room, but even those elemental lords cannot be completely unaffected after entering this room, and their bodies will more or less show a certain degree of flesh-and-blood transformation. You... are indeed an elemental life form, but you are not just an elemental life form."

The ice-blue maid of course wouldn't answer this question, so the mimic tentatively summoned thousands of blood drops from under its feet again. But at this moment, it perceived that the two pieces of flesh and blood that had just fallen into the blood lake didn't seem to have dissolved and become part of the "hotbed." It originally thought this was because they still had the ability to resist, but the time seemed a bit too long.

Looking down, in the blood lake that was surging again, a small vortex appeared at the position where Xia De fell into the blood lake. Two seconds later, the vortex had expanded to the area of one-fourth of the blood lake.

"Huh?"

The mimic was surprised to perceive that the blood lake was being consumed rapidly, as if someone had opened a sewer pipe at the bottom of the blood lake, letting these powers accumulated since the ancient era disappear rapidly.

It immediately dissipated the blood drops around it and flew downward quickly to check what was happening.

But at this moment, a rumbling sound appeared across the flesh-and-blood wall, as if tens of thousands of people were running rapidly outside the room. Then, the wall far to the right of Winnie suddenly bulged inward, and the wall stretched because of the giant impact like elastic rubber.

After reaching the limit, amidst a dazzling holy white light, the wall of the core room of the 【House of Mimics】 was actually smashed through from the outside. ===== CHAPTER 3488 =====
