Chapter 457: Just a Tsundere

Mu Qingzhi had fought against dragon kings before.

She had fought Odin several times, so she was experienced in combat. However, she did not expect that Herzog would not play by the rules.

Among the dragon kings she had fought, he was the only one who was so shameless that he hid behind and threw skills crazily. He was a disgrace to the dragon kings and lowered the dragon kings' bottom line with one move.

...Elemental controller?

Her body was created by the system. Didn't she know whether she had dragon blood? Maybe her spirit was really related to the White King, but her combat system had nothing to do with the dragons.

Looking at Herzog, who was chanting an unknown word at high speed, Mu Qingzhi's face turned dark for a moment.

She didn't know what word spirit the other party was releasing, but judging from the might of this word spirit and the frenzy of the surrounding elements, it was completely out of the category of high-risk word spirits like [Jun Yan], and was exactly the same as [Zhu Long] that Norton wanted to release at the Three Gorges Kuimen... or even more.

... In other words, the word spirit the other party was releasing was a world-destroying word spirit of the same level as [Zhu Long].

In the battles between dragon kings, there were actually very few word spirits colliding with each other, because dragon kings could see and master the elements, and canceling the release of word spirits was not a very advanced skill for them. Xia Mi had shown her this before.

Except for some strengthening word spirits that acted directly on themselves, such as [Time Zero], [Moment] or [Bronze Throne], the rest of the external word spirits like [Jun Yan] would never have a chance to be released in front of a dragon king.

It is precisely because of this that the battles between dragon kings often end in bloodshed, that is, close combat. Otherwise, Norton would not have spent so much effort to forge the dragon-slaying alchemical weapon [Seven Deadly Sins].

But the problem is that she can't even see the elements, let alone control the elements with her will, let alone cancel the opponent's words. Although she can block the impact with her own red lotus flame, this is not a long-term solution after all.

"The power of existence..."

Feeling the increasingly violent energy fluctuations around Herzog, Mu Qingzhi took a deep breath and slowly tightened the Zhidian Zana in her hand.

In fact, strictly speaking, before the system connected to Alastor through Shana herself, she was not a fire mist at all. All the moves she performed before that looked exactly the same as Shana, but in fact, there was no connection between the two.

Shana's moves and the free methods, including the red lotus fire she cast, all originated from the energy conversion of the power of existence, and the series of scenes she created before all originated from the fantasy power of the system... that is, the so-called power of my thoughts.

The power of existence is a unique power system in the Red World. In the world where Shana is, the power of existence is the energy that maintains the existence of all things in the world.

In other words, everything in that world is composed of [the power of existence], and all matter exists because of [the power of existence], including the humans in that world.

This power system is unique to that world. Although the fantasy power of the system can imitate this system, it cannot be completely restored with the current incompleteness of the system, and can only produce a form of four-in-one.

So in the initial battle with Odin on the viaduct, she was actually very risky. The flames she called and the free methods she cast were essentially using the fire element in the air as a medium. Therefore, as long as Odin wanted, he could completely disable all her methods... including the wings of fire and even the seal.

...Under the premise that all these things were cancelled, all she could do was attack with a basic attack.

However, now that she was connected to Alastair, she had replaced all the calls of related elements with the power of existence obtained from Alastair.

——The manifestation and use of the power of existence were beyond the control of the elements.

"Hey, system, do you think Alastair will feel weak after this battle?"

While waiting for the other party's words to be completed, Mu Qingzhi asked the system in her heart.

Since the seal covering the entire Tokyo, she has been continuously drawing power from Alastair. Not to mention that the battle later will consume another batch, the power of existence required for the restoration of Tokyo after the battle is the largest part... She was very worried that she would accidentally pluck out all the wool while she was wooling.

[...I can only say that you think too much. ]

Soon, the system gave a speechless answer in her heart.

[Alastair is a supernormal being that embodies the laws of the Red World, one of the pillars of the "God". The little bit of existence you have consumed is not even a drop in the bucket. Instead of worrying about him, I think you should worry about your creditor. ]

"Creditor...who?"

Unconsciously, Mu Qingzhi was slightly stunned.

[Shana. Although you seem to be drawing power from Alastair, in fact, you are borrowing power from Shana. Borrowing so much power at one time is enough for her to lie in bed for ten days and half a month. ]

"Uh..."

[Don't worry, as long as Alastair doesn't say it, Shana won't know that it was us who did it for the time being... Even if the other party knows it, it's okay. ]

As if she was going to pour herself a cup of Coke, the system spoke calmly with the sound of bubbles coming out of the Coke.

[At worst, you can say that you are her half-sister who has been separated for many years. You are just a tsundere, and it is easy to deal with. ]

Mu Qingzhi: “………”

…………………………………………

The strong wind lifted her hair and interrupted her conversation with the system.

Raising her head, Mu Qingzhi squinted and looked forward.

The release of Herzog's unknown world-destroying level word spirit is coming to an end. She can feel the huge field formed with the other party as the center.

There are blue-purple arcs flashing restlessly in the field, and pearl-like ball lightnings are formed one by one in the field. The terrifying aura of destruction emanates from those ball lightnings, setting up a net in front of her.

"Well... you are still so cowardly at this time..."

Muttering softly, Mu Qingzhi tightened the Zhidian Zana in her hand, and a large amount of existence power was called upon by her, and then turned into the red lotus flame that suddenly surged on the blade.

But just as she was about to withstand this attack, a clear snap of fingers suddenly sounded on this battlefield that was completely shrouded in the aura of destruction.

The next moment after the snap of fingers sounded, the net in front of Mu Qingzhi gradually dimmed, and the ball lightning that had already formed disappeared one after another, and the high-speed air became absolutely prohibited.

Just like that, in Herzog's horrified eyes, the world-destroying level words that were about to be released successfully were forcibly cancelled by a snap of fingers.

"This is..."

After a slight pause, as if sensing something, Mu Qingzhi turned his head and looked at his side.

As a red door disappeared, a disheveled figure with many injuries appeared beside him, with a bamboo dragonfly on his head.

"Lu Mingfei... No, Lu Mingze?"

Looking at the figure in front of her, Mu Qingzhi couldn't help but feel a little surprised.

She hadn't seen him since the other party asked him to help bring the black snake eggs out of the abyss in the Black Stone Mansion that day.

From the system's inference, she learned that the other party was probably tampered with by Odin, so she couldn't get out at all. Originally, she wanted to follow the clues to find things related to the shelter and rescue the other party's body after the matter here was finished, but she didn't expect the other party to appear in front of her at this time.

"Yes, it's me."

Lu Mingze nodded as if he was slightly relieved after scanning her.

"He has obtained the "power" of the White King, and Odin may have added a lot of ingredients to him. You shouldn't be so careless."

Herzog in this state, even if Lu Mingfei made a deal with him, he and his brother merged into a cocoon to hatch a pseudo-dragon body, there was no absolute certainty that he could defeat Herzog.

As a result, this young lady actually fought directly with a human body... It's not so contemptuous to look down on people.

If he had come a step later, Herzog would have released the world-destroying level word spirit...

"When did I become careless...Wait, have you made a deal with Lu Mingfei?"

Looking at Lu Mingze in front of her, Mu Qingzhi frowned slightly.

——She was on guard, but in the end, it seemed that she couldn't defend herself.

"Let's talk about this kind of thing later."

Smiling slightly, Lu Mingze pointed at Herzog in front of him.

"Although I came in a hurry and didn't make much preparation, I can still help you. But if you don't care about this guy in front of you, he will escape."

Herzog: "..."
