Chapter 4132: Unicorn Form
Vigo, Xia De, and the gentleman from the Church had also tried the wall in front of them, but they couldn't assist Ellie. Miss Feilian did have this power, but consuming too much power would shorten the doll's activity time. Miss Doll would still need to assist in dealing with the core of the 【Skin-Object Hall】 in a while, and Xia De's power alone was not enough to complete such work.
"It's okay, I'll try a new power. If I succeed, Mr. Dawn Church, I would like to ask you to stay here and point the way for those who come later. Whether it's the witches or the people from the Church, they should be arriving soon, but other than the entrance we might open, I'm afraid it will be very difficult to penetrate into the core."
Xia De said, and pointed to the direction where the professor from the 【Truth Society】 had just left, meaning they also had to guard against others. So the gentleman from the Church agreed; he was very curious about what Xia De was going to do now.
Vigo was also curious about what Xia De was going to do; only Miss Feilian had a guess about this. Xia De handed 【Night Watcher】 to Vigo again, then came to Ellie's side and placed his hand on her back.
The cute, pure white holy beast turned to look at him, and then suddenly realized:
"Need to connect, right?"
Ellie maintained her unicorn form and summoned her life ring. The core spirit rune 【Connect】 flashed with light, and the holy white light on the unicorn also spread to Xia De.
Thus, the one-time selectable transformation opportunity that Xia De had obtained from the 【Lord of Flesh Aberration】 played its effect at this moment.
The light on Ellie's body surrounded him, and his outline squirmed and changed in this light. When the light dissipated, a brand-new unicorn with a silver horn appeared beside Ellie.
【Outsider, you have obtained the Curio "Transformation: Unicorn." Corresponds to the 【Flesh】 spirit rune.】
The fur of the unicorn Xia De turned into was pure white, just like Ellie's, only the roots of the hair had a faint silver light. And Ellie's horn was golden, while Xia De's horn was silver.
Like other transformation forms, the unicorn at this moment also looked very young, but because Ellie was not large in size to begin with, and males of the same age in the unicorn population were generally larger than females, the volume of the unicorn Xia De turned into was vaguely a circle larger than Ellie's.
"Eh?"
Although she had anticipated what Xia De was going to do, Ellie still blinked, and then showed an expression similar to Little Mia's. However, Ellie didn't immediately want to rub against Xia De like that cat, but first sniffed the scent of the brand-new unicorn, and then called out happily, using her furry face to rub against Xia De's face.
Xia De had long since adapted to the feeling of all four hooves on the ground in his cat and wolf forms. The unicorn form, like the dragon form, granted Xia De powerful racial characteristics. In this form, Xia De's flight speed had reached the peak of all his forms.
"Looks good."
Miss Doll, sitting sideways on the unicorn's back, evaluated with a smile, and then glanced at Vigo, who was reaching out her hand. Vigo's face flushed and she pulled her hand back, thinking that there would be opportunities in the future, and she couldn't lose face in front of the demigod witch.
"Ellie, don't rub against me, let's do it together."
The unicorn spoke in human language, and Ellie seemed even more motivated than before:
"Okay! You are an underage unicorn; I will protect you this time!"
"That won't be necessary..."
Xia De and Ellie stepped back two steps together, and brilliant light flashed on the golden horn and the silver horn at the same time. The power of destiny and the silver moon gathered here, and two pure white figures seemed to merge together and then rammed forward. When blood surged and flowed out from the hole in the wall, the passage to the core area of the 【Skin-Object Hall】 was successfully opened by them.
"This way!"
A thunder spear penetrated all the skin-objects in the entire corridor, Yiluna called out to Sister Daifulin, and then continued to sense the location of the core area.
Red butterflies danced to lead the way. The group entered the hall on the second floor, and now they had reached the third floor. What they saw along the way made everyone's faces look quite ugly. Even Yiluna, who thought she was used to seeing all kinds of things, only wanted to flatten this place completely at this moment.
The team consisting of Yiluna, Sister Daifulin, the butterfly-winged girl, Vanessa, Shivi, Miss Jia Lin Na, and Claire—three Chosen, two 13th-tier great witches, and two 12th-tier great witches—advanced rapidly.
Although they couldn't directly pierce through room walls like Ellie and ignore any conditions to search for the destination directly, with the Chosen of Space present, they could even artificially create paths.
Among everyone present, the witch of earth, Vanessa, and the witch of balance, Miss Jia Lin Na, were both good at sealing arts, but they didn't play much of a role, because the black flames swung from the dark golden scythe in Sister Daifulin's hand were enough to counter any Skinner.
The "Primordial Fire," which only needed two more clusters of flames to be fully restored, burned almost everything. In front of the group was darkness and blood mist, and behind them was ruins burned by flames.
Because the area burned by the nun's flames lost its spatial anomaly properties, the team sent by the Church into the 【Skin-Object Hall】 soon caught up with them. After the two teams merged and advanced together, they soon encountered the Skinners and skin-objects sealed by violet light, and subsequently encountered the "Construct Master" Gerald Delong.
In the Church's team, the leader was Ms. Camille Eden, the "Sun Emblem," a 13th-ring mage of the 【Sun Church】 who had just arrived locally today.
This lady with angelic blood didn't ask Yiluna why she was here just now, nor did she go to question the "Construct Master" why he betrayed the 【Creation Church】 at this time.
And the "Construct Master," who had promised Xia De he would help, briefly explained the current situation to the group after joining the team.
"The God-Caller clearly stated that he wants to completely resolve the 【Skin-Object Hall】 this time. I don't know if he has mastered the method to destroy this place, or just wants to contain it, but this is indeed an opportunity.
The 【Skin-Object Hall】 is currently being invaded by multiple forces at the same time, and the God-Caller and others should have reached the core area by now."
He hesitated for a moment and didn't mention the doll on Xia De's shoulder, because he couldn't tell what that doll was either.
So the support team quickened their pace, advancing along the traces of battle ahead and the passage Ellie had rammed out, and soon arrived at the collection hall located on the periphery of the core area.
"Here!"
The 12th-ring mage of the 【Dawn Church】 waiting here led the way for everyone. The only passage was still maintaining the appearance it had when Xia De and Ellie entered.
Yiluna and Sister Daifulin rushed in directly, followed by Vanessa and Shivi. Miss Jia Lin Na and Claire stayed outside, just like on the island in the center of the lake filled with blood mist at this moment, where Winnie, Miss Eilesser, and the others were leading the team to fight the activated human skin. This entrance to the passage also needed someone to guard it.
"The smell is really choking."
This was Yiluna's first reaction after rushing into the hole in the wall, and as her eyes adapted to the red light everywhere, she also saw the situation here.
In the blood mist, countless black shadows were fighting. Both sides of the battle looked like humans, but Yiluna could clearly feel that one side was pseudo-humans, and the other side was unknown existences wearing skin-objects. Looking into the distance, she could even see something like a dragon fighting a giant—that was a flesh-and-blood puppet wearing dragon skin and a high-level pseudo-human that had become gigantic.
Underfoot was blood that had just submerged the soles of their shoes. The space behind the wall was surprisingly large, gravity had problems here, and the ground and sky were filled with the wreckage of "coat hangers" and display cabinets, and the environmental background where these wrecks were located looked like a blood-colored city, and also like a dirty and filthy exhibition hall.
The power of the 【Pseudo-Human House】 and the 【Skin-Object Hall】 overlapped here. In the chaotic space, the characteristics of both sides constantly eroded, making the space itself manifest more abstract and difficult-to-distinguish scenery.
And when Yiluna looked up at the high sky, she saw the people who were fighting.
Xia De, riding the unicorn Ellie, was entangled with two humanoid relic derivatives, a man and a woman. Vigo was hovering on the side, not assisting Xia De in the battle, but guarding against the "pseudo-humans" at her feet suddenly making a move.
The high-level pseudo-human did not appear to help Xia De, but Yiluna was surprised to find that Xia De alone was holding back the two humanoid relic derivatives that possessed terrifying whisper elements.
She didn't know that those two were the "Skinner Leader" and the "Hall Master." She could only see large violet halos constantly staining layers of floating skin-objects, and see the brilliance of the red moon and the holy light of the unicorn resisting evil.
Sister Daifulin flew up to help, the butterfly-winged girl turned into a red butterfly and flew into the fighting pseudo-humans and skin-objects. Wherever the red butterfly passed, it was like an eraser wiping over a sketch, and all matter was disappearing.
Vanessa, Shivi, and the Church's ring-mages either joined the battle above or stayed on the ground to intercept the terrifying number of skin-objects and pseudo-human legions. Yiluna also wanted to fly up, but a violet light fell in front of her.
A somewhat familiar voice appeared in her ear:
"Go find a certain collection in this space; that is the key."
"Miss Feilian?"
Yiluna, who recognized the owner of the voice, was quite surprised, and the light that stopped in front of her was not Miss Doll, but a blooming violet flower.
The flower floated forward, and Yiluna did not hesitate to follow immediately. Her identity as the Chosen of Balance made her very good at identifying power attributes, and the flower in front of her undoubtedly belonged to the witch's power.
"Are we going to find the true core of the two relics?"
"No, it's to find the items I left here during the Fifth Era. Xia De might not be able to get the gifts left in the academy, but the things obtained by the Skinners must still remain." ===== CHAPTER 4133 =====
