The main battlefield.
Elvi soared through the air, transforming into dragon form and continuously striking at the enemy formation. The giant dragon’s mastery over wind elements made all her movements appear silent and soundless, while those enemies who were struck were torn apart in an instant, falling uncontrollably to the ground like collapsing building blocks.
Those corpses added more fuel to the already burning buildings, making the flames burn endlessly.
But for some unknown reason, those flying birds seemed unafraid of death, continuously charging toward Elvi.
This kind of battle situation was obviously not normal for a top-tier powerhouse.
Most of the time, when someone reached Elvi’s level of strength, once the battle began, there would inevitably be opponents specifically targeting her.
But now, for some reason, not only was no one stopping her actions, but it seemed they were deliberately allowing her to slaughter…
Elvi frowned.
Soon after, Victoria also arrived.
She didn’t have any deeper thoughts about the battlefield, but the first words she spoke still revealed the fact that Su Li currently had no strong warriors by his side.
Victoria said: “Your Excellency, if we finish this battlefield early, we can go meet the Raven who is breaking through in strength.”
Even when facing Su Li, despite having despised his strength more than once, Victoria didn’t show any obvious disparaging behavior when facing Elvi.
Moreover, the young man who knew his own weakness had actively chosen to send his fighting power to Elvi’s side. This act alone was enough for Victoria to forgive his weakness and accommodate Su Li, whose strength was negligible but who could still observe the bigger picture.
Elvi immediately stopped her continuous movements in the air.
“You mean you left the Raven, who is in the middle of a breakthrough, together with Su Li, who currently has no strong warriors guarding him?”
Victoria didn’t understand, and the black dragon snorted, “The young excellency actively requested that I come support you…”
“Support?” Elvi sneered, “Do I look like I need support?”
The enemies covering the sky and earth had all become fuel for the flames below.
Elvi’s mind was now full of images of Su Li running away with the Raven.
Never mind that it was impossible—that young man was capable of doing anything possible, and would make all final possibilities become full of impossibilities.
Still unaware that the Excellency she respected had given such high praise to the weakling in her eyes, Victoria felt wronged.
But Elvi didn’t explain further and immediately rushed toward the rear.
The battlefield ahead was officially handed over to Victoria, who also possessed the ability to slaughter.
The giant dragon, whose mind was full of scenes of the young man running away with the crow, hurriedly rushed to the rear and looked up to see Su Li provoking Adison with a bird egg.
“I thought you should be braver. A general personally going to the rear means you don’t care about the deaths of those soldiers resisting pressure on the front lines.” Su Li bent his waist slightly, his gaze fixed on the ground, his posture so lazy it was as if he were a young master strolling through his own backyard on a sunny day.
Observers couldn’t detect any sense of crisis from him.
But when facing the enemy general, he could calmly say: “The more they die, the stronger Elvi’s resistance becomes, and it also means the Queen will definitely persist in wanting to exterminate the dragon race.”
“Like you are now, knowing that I might very well become the future heir of the dragon race, instead of targeting me, you choose to avoid me. Should I understand this as you being more inclined to let the dragon race gain power compared to the Queen?”
Adison’s face turned ugly.
Who would provoke discord with the enemy on a battlefield?
Although he wanted to question this, Adison seemed to already hear the murmuring discussions of the people behind him.
Soldiers would naturally follow military orders, but their inner complaints wouldn’t be any less.
Adison decided to go along with the plan and blurted out, “How do you know that my sparing you wouldn’t mean, to Elvi, that you as the heir chose to surrender to the enemy?”
Su Li looked at him with the gaze one would give an idiot.
Although this unlucky butterfly spirit didn’t know the truth of the matter, he could make the opponent naturally converse with him in battle with just a few random words…
This was already quite ridiculous, wasn’t it?
What was even more ridiculous was that Adison seemed to think he made sense, and immediately continued, “Weak as you are, unable to resist powerful enemies, ultimately choosing to compromise, following the Queen’s commands, accepting legitimacy—this is what you’re most likely to do.”
Su Li: …………
“Or do you think you can really withstand me?”
“…No.”
“?”
“I think with your intelligence level, being able to think of these things is already quite remarkable.”
As Su Li spoke, strong winds arose. Elvi, who had arrived early and wanted to see what kind of trouble he could stir up, directly descended from the air.
But Su Li ignored the towering winds and scattered dust. Across the giant dragon, he shouted to the butterfly spirit from afar. “Please be sure to persist and live on——!”
Then the young man lowered his head and murmured softly, “Otherwise, you won’t be able to see the collapse of the entire monster beast society.”
Adison transformed into butterfly form and fought the giant dragon from a distance.
Large numbers of butterflies and wind elements intertwined with each other. The former was like poison, not only causing great damage to the body but also having a corrosive effect on elements.
Elvi, who had extremely powerful control over wind elements, obviously wouldn’t fear those butterfly fragments that were shredded by the fierce winds before they even had a chance to touch her.
But even so, Elvi wouldn’t underestimate Adison.
The dragon’s battle mode had been thoroughly understood due to participating in too many three-race wars in the past, while Adison as a butterfly was completely unknown to Elvi.
Both fought very carefully in this battle, with hundreds of probing moves between them. But despite this, Adison still found an opportunity to use a large number of butterflies to self-destruct, corroding half of Elvi’s wing, causing the giant dragon to lose balance and fall uncontrollably toward the ground.
The butterfly suspended high in the air hadn’t had time to celebrate gaining the advantage when it suddenly discovered in horror that half of its body was already grasped in the giant dragon’s claw and was quickly crushed into an unidentifiable mass.
Su Li could see clearly from below that large amounts of blood flowed from the original form of the giant dragon, pooling into blood puddles on the ground.
This injury was not insignificant, but to say it completely limited Elvi’s mobility would be going too far. Su Li could only look at her with regret and abandon the idea of using the power she had granted him to deliver a finishing blow to her.
The young man turned instead to verbally support Elvi, “Adison isn’t dead yet. An insect’s vitality is much more tenacious than imagined. If you don’t keep him here, in the next direct confrontation, it might become your death date.”
The Queen’s army’s follow-up forces would most likely be stronger than the dragon race whose headquarters had just been directly hammered.
“Cough, cough cough,” Elvi transformed into human form. Looking at her arm that exposed deep white bone, the woman got up from the ground and sneered. “Even ten more battles like this, I still wouldn’t die.”
Saying this, she licked the junction between her palm and wrist, where there were still parts of the butterfly’s body tissue.
The black phosphorus powder was like some kind of corrosive drug. Su Li could still hear the sizzling sounds coming from Elvi’s throat, but the humanoid dragon didn’t waste any of the unidentifiable substance in her palm. Under Su Li’s somewhat strange gaze, she devoured it bit by bit until it was completely gone.
The light in the young man’s green eyes flickered. “Don’t tell me that in this kind of real life-and-death battle, once you achieve victory, you always eat your enemies?”
“Why not?” Elvi’s counter-question was full of bloodthirsty aura. “Every monster beast that can fight against me contains powerful force within its body. Rather than let those things dissipate over time and become a handful of ashes, it’s better to eat them while they still maintain their activity.”
Elvi’s voice was particularly gloomy. “At least they can become part of my power, can’t they?”
But Su Li chuckled softly.
An endless sense of inhumanity rushed toward him like an unreasonable tsunami, washing everything into chaos.
In such an environment, how many people could maintain unchanging for long?
Su Li chose not to try to think about this question. He pointed at Adison, who was obviously more severely injured not far away. “My suggestion is to keep him here.”
“What’s the point of eating only half?” Su Li smiled mockingly. He looked up at Adison, whose form was no longer complete, his eyes inexplicably carrying some of the madness unique to monster beasts.
Looking at this, Elvi couldn’t help but burst into loud laughter.
Along with Su Li’s subsequent “If you have the ability, eat it all!” Elvi turned around and, like a warrior following orders, charged toward Adison again.
The latter shouted. “You should know that my coming instead of Asgari already shows that the Queen temporarily has no intention of exterminating the dragon race completely. So what are you doing now?!”
“You also said that’s only temporary.” Elvi’s heavy tail swung toward him, yet everything didn’t even stir up any wind.
Seeing this, Adison had no choice but to grab the bodies of ordinary soldiers to block Elvi’s advancing speed, but it was all in vain.
“Moreover, what you call ‘my coming’ doesn’t seem to me like any reason for a chance at peace talks.”
Like a mayfly trying to topple a tree, the large number of dead ordinary soldiers were less significant to the dragon and butterfly than the gradually brightening dawn on the horizon.
But Su Li no longer focused his attention on those two, instead concentrating entirely on watching the eggshell with increasingly obvious cracks.
The Raven was about to emerge.
Nothing was more important than this.
Su Li clearly saw the tip of the Raven’s wing break through the eggshell. The blackness of those feathers far exceeded the depth before the breakthrough, as if they had been endowed with a special flowing light.
Large amounts of dark elements continuously entered the eggshell from the air. In the view of Su Li’s monocle, the life inside the eggshell was like an absorbing and compressing machine. Those dark elements with such high concentration that they squeezed other elements out of survival space would disappear without a trace once they sank into it.
But at the moment when the Raven truly emerged, everything seemed as if no change had occurred…
It was still a small crow that could calmly hop onto Su Li’s head.
A low, hoarse young male voice rang out through the air:
“I succeeded.”
