The lizard leader realized that the tides had changed, not only would she not be able to save her people today, but she herself was going to die…
But if that was the case then she could use that without worrying, so laughing like a madwoman she says: "Fine, fine, fine!, you have forced me to this!"
Holding a serpent figure with her hands with force she screams and says: "My lady will devour you alive!, all of you will go with me!"
The gorilla instinctively feels the danger and with all her strength launches herself to attack and succeeds, piercing the chest of the lizard leader as if it were paper, but that did not manage to prevent her from breaking the figure in two.
Then the entire area felt an incredible pressure and a crack opened wide open in the sky, sinister purple eyes opened and looked toward here.
Emma, Lily and Clara felt their hearts sink, a semi-divine being is looking toward here at this moment…
The other lizard women are not any better, they are kneeling trembling looking in the direction of the eyes.
But then Mila arrives, appearing safe and sound in Emma's eyes, who instead of feeling happy only smiles bitterly: "Mila… why did you come back?"
Mila without fear looks into the eyes of that being and that being looks back at her, instantly the weight on Mila's back increases in an enormous way almost making her kneel, but then her medallion begins to shine with an emerald light, another amethyst one and another topaz colored one, holding her in place.
Mila calmly kneels by herself, but not before that entity, instead she begins to pray out loud: "Venerable lord, Supreme God of dragons, Supreme God of time and Supreme God of space!, this loyal believer begs you to respect your pact and direct your gaze and your protection toward her!"
The medallion shone and shone, with incredible force, all the members of the emerald-golden dragon god temple were freed from the pressure when touched by its light, but that was not all.
In the sky far above that dark and black crack in the sky, two new cracks opened and from them two eyes appeared to everyone's surprise, an emerald and amethyst iris divided by a black dragon pupil like the abyss, from which two golden clock hands emerged from its center and moved like a clock, on the edge of the iris golden symbols that clearly were numbers could be identified.
When those eyes appeared they did not look at Emma, nor Mila nor anyone else, with brutal indifference and an imposing presence they looked at the dark crack.
An incredible pressure enveloped that space, so much that from that dark crack a terrified voice emerged: "Impossible!, y-you… y-you are dead, you cannot do this!, YOU CANNOT!"
A voice full of disdain and mockery emerged from those majestic eyes: "Can't I?, that word does not exist for me, there is nothing this sovereign cannot do."
Soon the pressure alone caused the space in that area to collapse, the crack began to close rapidly, the furious voice from the crack says: "You damned filthy dragon, the time of your temple is approaching and there is nothing you can do to stop us!"
The voice responds one last time as if tired and unperturbable: "The fate of my temple does not concern you, a miserable demigoddess, nor is it for Adolf to decide, whether they can endure or not will depend on them…"
This exchange leaves everyone a bit slack-jawed, but Emma is not stupid, although she wants to thank Mila, she does not waste time and with fury quickly reaches the Tashaze lying on the ground and with a cut of her spear cuts off her head.
Immediately after she turns and throws her spear piercing the last lizard woman, then when she finally finishes, Emma falls to the ground sitting without air and very tired…
Mila approaches quickly to check on her, Lily and the others as well, fortunately Emma does not have major wounds other than certain bruises.
Mila stays looking at her with teary eyes and Emma strokes her head: "Why are you crying silly girl?"
Mila crying says: "Because I was very worried…"
Emma only smiles bitterly and tells her: "I am very hard to kill, you already know that."
Mila smiles a little and says: "Yes…"
Then the gorilla approaches and all of Mila's friends including Emma look at her, Emma asks her: "I didn't know you had advanced your connection level and managed to connect with something so powerful."
Mila smiles a little embarrassed and says: "It was just a bit of luck…"
Emma realizes that Mila is not telling her the whole truth, but she does not give it importance, Mila has always been like that, if she wants to say it she will say it, if not, she will not, so she changes the question: "And well what name are you going to give this little one?"
Mila thinks about it a bit and says: "Since you saved me in a grove, what do you think of Segenhain? or Grünsegen?"
The gorilla shakes her head, it seems she does not like how they sound, so Mila thinks a bit more and tells her: "What about Ursula, Nora?, Lea?"
The gorilla shakes her head until she reaches the name Lea and then nods, Mila then tells her: "Alright, you will be called Lea."
Then Lily and Clara help Emma get up and take her to reunite with the troops, Haru stays to clean the battlefield and collect the corpses and Mila returns to retrieve the corpse of the serpent.
When everyone later gathers at the camp inside one of the hideouts at night, at last everyone can rest and count the gains, for the moment.
…
Meanwhile on Feicui Long's side, exactly at the moment Mila came out of the medallion and time started moving again, Feicui Long looked in that direction puzzled saying: "How strange, I have no memory of having done that, could it be because some of my memories are still blurry?"
Isabella looks at him and sees his face of complete confusion and says: "Is something wrong dear?"
Feicui Long shakes his head and says: "No, it's nothing let's continue."
Feicui Long was left with a very strange feeling, where he felt that an important piece was missing from his memory…
After a while while they continued walking after having killed a few scouting groups he felt something very strange and looked again in that direction and although it was very far, he could feel what was happening, but although he was intrigued he did not dare to activate his eyes nor his third eye so as not to draw the attention of the other side.
That would be a grave mistake, Feicui Long then says: "Alright, I think we have killed enough, this is already the seventh scouting team, what do you say if we rest for a while?"
Irina responds and says: "I think that would be fine young master, after all we cannot continue fighting indefinitely."
Feicui Long and the others also enter a secret hideout to rest for today.
…
Elsewhere, in the camp of Gloria's group, she was sighing, her group by far was the weakest, although they were 15 people and Andrea, Caroline, Freja and Arianne have contracted creatures, just like her, and the maximum realm of those creatures is in the realm at grade 9 initial stage of the mystic realm.
She herself is the strongest cultivator of the group in the mystic realm grade 5 – intermediate stage, Isabella's other friends had barely reached the second grade of the mystic realm and the army commander along with two others are in the mystic realm grade 3 initial stage.
The battles had been hard and that was despite the fact that she followed Feicui Long's orders to the letter and avoided unnecessary conflicts, attacking exclusively the supplies and the enemy weak areas.
For some reason the enemy numbers were a bit more numerous than expected and they were accompanied by some energy beasts, not only those annoying giant wood-scaled lizards, but also some lizard hounds, lizards the size of large dogs, thin and equally agile.
In addition other creatures, they were of course not a super serious problem but even so sometimes they were forced to use the contracted creatures to recover the advantage they had.
At the moment she has only destroyed 5 supply bases… and according to Irina's report and map, there are about 100 secret caches left, at this rate it will take them 20 days to destroy all of them or reach the 75% goal.
Gloria felt a bit weak… the truth is she never thought much about her cultivation, especially because the barony… now Skylion county her strength is already more than decent especially for her age, but now Isabella is already about to catch up to her in cultivation, but even worse, she is probably stronger than herself, due to her bloodline and her techniques in addition to the talent Isabella has.
But that is not the saddest thing for her, on the contrary, she is happy for Isabella after all she has known her since Isabella was a baby…
The worst part is that her technique and her mastery of the sword have been stuck for a long time and although she has asked her mother she does not know what is happening either, Gloria's talent for the sword in her mother's words is far superior to her own and she could reach a great level, but now…
Now it is as if everything were a white lie for her, she truly does not know what to do nor who to ask.
