Whispering Poems

Chapter 3825 Unicorn - Words of Sublimation

The attack of the second head of the giant serpent emerging from the sea was thwarted, and the giant serpent head was temporarily restrained. Thus, the girls on the deck of the Radiant Messenger, which had already floated directly above the Sylvia Tower, saw a thousand-meter-long crimson sword mark in the ruins on the mountaintop illuminate the night sky. Then, Iluna severed the serpent head that was being held by the giant Shad with a single sword strike.

"This...is a victory?"

Bella asked in disbelief, knowing full well that the battle of fate would not end like this, and the phantom of Ms. White, who suddenly appeared on the deck, seemed to agree with her assessment:

"You have indeed forged a worthy weapon, but it has begun to molt. The Order of Doom has helped it complete its final preparations; the serpent's transformation is inevitable."

Luvia, who had already used two coins for a divination, remained expressionless:
"Bella, tell the girls to prepare to disembark, and have Sylvia move us into the battlefield in time, and proceed according to the plan we just discussed."

"I'll do it right away."

The snake's head fell to the ground and exploded into a cloud of yellow sand. Xia De, who was holding the remaining part of the snake's head, felt something grab his legs from the pile of sand.

At the same time, the yellow sand formed from the snake's head blew towards everyone in the ruins, and the power of the apocalypse immediately spread with this yellow sand.

The monsters crawling out of the dim yellow cave and the terrifying serpent shadows formed from the snakes' shadows grew even more ferocious, and the situation almost instantly reversed. The severed snake heads then grew back in the form of mist, using their amorphous nature to coil around the giant Shad's body.

Therefore, neither returning to his normal form nor transforming into the Red Butterfly Shad could do it. The snake's body solidified from the black mist and tightly bound the giant. Then, the snake's head opened its mouth and bit Shad's head.

"Sunshine Gun!"

But while it trapped Shad, it did not trap Iluna. A hundred-meter-long crimson lightning bolt ripped through the night and struck the snake, causing red arcs of electricity to leap across its body.

Taking this opportunity, the giant Shad broke free from the snake's restraints. Instead of continuing his attack, he flew towards Iluna, wanting to test his ideas.

The giant serpent, its body trembling in red lightning, raised its head and uttered, in standard Kassenrick, its first true spell since its appearance:

"The Locked Dream: Apocalyptic Dream!"

The dim yellow light emitted from the giant serpent's mouth dyed the entire night sky yellow, and then the color of that beam of light spread throughout the world.

The labyrinthine lock swallowed up the entire ruins, including, of course, Shangquan.

At the entrance of the cave where the waterfall is located, Ellie, holding the dyed "Innocence" apple, walked out with a puzzled look. After seeing Mia standing outside the waterfall waiting for her, she happily put the cat back on her head and picked up the cat's "Promise" Ring of Fate.

"Kitty! I'm on the Sixth Ring Road!"

Ellie happily shared the good news with the cat: her level had automatically increased after waking from the dream, this time powered by Shangquan himself. Of course, Ellie had also already collected all five rings of her spirit runes during the final stage of the climb.

At this moment, the little unicorn's first Ring of Destiny, or rather, "Apple of Destiny," was fully formed. She remembered the teachings of the three demigod witches very clearly, and the spring had also told her something very important—

[As strength grows, friendship connects you and me.]

This statement involves five important spirit runes: [Power], [Growth], [Friendship], [Connection], and [Self]. [Connection] happens to be Ellie's own core spirit rune, while [Self] is the power she gained recently after connecting with Flora's destiny.

Before she could even grasp the meaning of those words, the image of a giant snake head spewing yellow light into the night sky was reflected in the eyes of the cat and Ellie.

Ellie was terrified by the huge snake, but the cat didn't react much after it sat back on Ellie's head.

Seeing the yellow sand in the air entangling Shad, the little girl wanted to go forward to help, but even Ellie felt that her strength was useless in the face of such a huge enemy.

Fortunately, she knew she had an apple. Among the cold blue, the leisurely violet, and the solemn and majestic gold, Ellie first chose the very noble gold.

Destiny had been set, so Ellie ate the apple—she could summon it again in a moment. A solemn, majestic gold filled the little unicorn's pale silver-gray pupils, and then the apple's own pure color spread throughout her body, causing Ellie to transform from human form into her unicorn form.

The lazy cat remained perched on her head, while the life ring on the little unicorn's back became visible.

The core spirit rune [Unicorn] was the first to radiate light, which then connected with [Adventure], [Starting Point], [Silver Moon], and [Dance] respectively.

"hold head high!"

(“A Word of Ascension: The Beginning of an Adventure, a Unicorn Dances Under the Silver Moon!”)
An apple-shaped light shield covered Ellie's entire body. As she used the power left behind by Miss Violet to unleash the sublime words of the low ring, the light shield suddenly expanded, maintaining its apple shape and encompassing everything around it.

Although it sounds strange, the world created by Ellie's low-level sublimation is indeed apple-shaped.

The light spread quite quickly, and as Ellie lightly leaped into the high sky above the falling snow, the edge of the "apple" collided with the edge of that dim, yellowish world.

Upon contact, the two immediately pressed together. Most people who noticed this scene thought the white light would be instantly annihilated by the dim yellow scenery, but unexpectedly, although the apple-shaped sublimation initially contracted inward, it continued to expand and completely squeezed into the dim yellow scenery.

The white and dusky yellow colors seemed to have a boundary, but in fact, the power of the Words of Sublimation and the Lock of Illusion had already merged together. Therefore, the people fighting in the air hurriedly moved into the huge apple-shaped barrier.

However, the interior of the little unicorn's Ascension Words was not simply filled with pure white light. The silver moon hung high in the unbroken night sky, and almost all the starlight and moonlight converged on Ellie as she charged upwards.

The silvery moonlight shone on her like a spotlight on a stage. Although she was lightly leaping in the air, even someone who didn't understand art would think she was dancing.

"Where did you find such an amazing little unicorn?"

Adele asked the question knowingly, and the witches around her stammered and didn't give a direct answer, but Galina reacted very quickly:
"Look over there, a clock tower has appeared behind the Summoner!"

And so, carrying the glow of the moon and stars, as the white apple world merged completely with the twilight apocalypse, as white light appeared everywhere in the twilight landscape, and as the apple's interior was also decayed by the twilight scenery, Ellie crashed headfirst into the giant black snake's head.

Black and white annihilated each other in a strange world that was gradually becoming mixed together. Even the fully-formed Great Elf felt a sudden white light before his eyes, followed by the cracking sound of the Lock of Illusion and the Word of Ascension breaking at the same time.

The great elf Emilia recovered the fastest. In the chaotic colors that caused both of them to shatter simultaneously, she saw Ellie curled up into a white ball of fur, tracing an arc through the air as she fell toward the temple. She quickly flew over to catch her.

When the world returned to normal, and the powers of the Lock and the Word of Ascension annihilated each other, the black snake head that had emerged from the hole was still intact, but its body was covered with palm-sized, glowing white scars.

Although these white scars are insignificant compared to the snake's enormous body, and the snake is even using its power to dispel the light, their appearance is enough to prove that Ellie, through a single destiny, has directly affected the snake's true form.

The other party involved in the earlier impact, Ellie, who had shrunk into a white ball of fur and was falling downwards, was eventually caught by Emilia after transforming back into human form, thus preventing her from directly smashing through the temple's roof.

After the shattering of the lock, the snake immediately opened its mouth and sprayed black light towards Emilia and Ellie. Little Leona hurriedly flew over to try to get Stella to hold the shield and block it, but they were too far away.

The great elf raised her hand to cast a spell, but a figure blocked their way, pointing a longsword forward. Four rings deflected the black light back the way it came, sending it crashing directly into the snake's mouth.

The destructive black light had no effect on the snake, but it didn't rush to spew again. The massive snake head flicked its tongue, looking at the figure wreathed in gold and silver light before it, and at the glowing ring floating beside him. Then, the snake spoke in human language:

"That's something I never thought of."

[Punish Evil], [Miracle], [Resurrection], [Hope]—four differently colored rings floated around Shad. Or rather, they floated around Shad Iluna.

The massive spirit that suddenly emerged after the second round of resonance was used by Shad to activate [Lock of the Clock Tower Lovers] while Ellie unexpectedly activated the Word of Ascension to counter the serpent's illusion.

And so the sun and the moon merged into one once more, and Iluna took Shad's hand and merged into his soul, and the fates of the two became the fate of one.

When Shad asked Ms. White if there was any way to make a person resonate with more than three rings, he had considered whether there was a safe, effective and convenient method.

The best solution he could think of was to use the Enchanted Lock to merge himself with the girl who possessed multiple rings. In this way, even if the number of rings after merging didn't reach thirteen, it would easily exceed three.

And now this idea has truly come true, with Iluna and Shad becoming one again after the Battle of Green Lake.

His appearance didn't change much due to the fusion; only his eyes became heterochromatic, like Iluna's. He simultaneously mastered the powers of the sun and the moon, and the four Rings of Destiny, belonging to the outsider and Iluna respectively, resonated with this strange fused soul.
