As a villain, I really don't want to be pursued by the heroine.

Girl, why are you so confident about your classmates?

Seeing Roy staring at her silently without saying anything, Nia couldn't hold back her smile any longer. "You still have work to do, right?"

"I can't do it alone."

"But do you believe me?"

The terrifying monster was gradually approaching, but the black-haired boy ignored it all and steadily stretched out his hand to the elf girl in front of him.

Chapter 105: West Wind, the Source of Life

Trust is crucial to the influence of [Blood Resonance].

Roy needed a positive answer.

And under the boy's question, Nia fell into a moment of thought.

Roy has many secrets, whether it's the Sword Ghost, the flame just now, or even his unusual understanding of the cult, each one of them is very suspicious.

But at this moment, what came to Nia's mind was not these, but the smile on the boy's face during the afternoon date, his anxiety when facing the danger she was in, his determination when he stood in front of her in a black robe, and the warm embrace he gave her on the cold rainy night.

"Do you even need to ask such a thing? My partner."

The girl smiled and firmly held the boy's hand.

Her fair skin trembled slightly. No wonder, facing such a powerful enemy, even a girl as brave as her couldn't help but feel fear.

But even so, she still chose to believe in herself. How could she possibly let this conviction down?

Roy no longer hesitated, tightly grasped the soft palm, and mobilized the power of his blood.

His breathing, heartbeat, and even the rhythm of his blood slowly synchronized with Nia's.

Faced with the majestic and unstoppable tree giant, the only thing Douglas could think of was to order his men to escape.

But Sharon was prepared and used the branches to block their way.

Unable to muster up any will to resist, and unable even to escape, the members of the Sands faction could only wait helplessly for the Giant's judgment to come.

In Sharon's view, this is what mortals should do, give up rude resistance, and wait for the mercy of the Mother Goddess to free them from their flesh and blood.

But among the dejected figures, the figures of the young boy and girl who did not retreat at all were so eye-catching.

[Forest Elf] still needs to be sacrificed to the Mother Goddess and cannot be crushed to death easily, but the black-haired mortal is different. I want to let her feel the power of the Mother Goddess!

The ferocious tree man stretched out a finger, arrogantly as if he was going to crush an ant.

Until the breeze blows.

A faint breeze blew around the boy and girl, mixed with bright green spots of light, just like fireflies on a midsummer night, unreal and beautiful.

At first Sharon didn't care, until her heart suddenly tightened and her whole body became restless, and she finally realized that something was wrong.

Are you...afraid?

No, just two Sequence 8s. Even if one of them stole the power of the dragon clan, the other one, although a [Forest Elf], has not yet awakened.

Nothing to fear at all!

Sharon convinced herself, widened her eyes, controlled the tree man, and slapped it hard!

But at this moment, the storm suddenly arose.

A violent turbulence rose from the ground, and the invisible airflow turned into countless sharp wind blades, and countless wind blades turned into thick barriers.

The powerful blow came down, but was blocked by the wind barrier.

Not only that, the palm of the tree giant seemed to be burning, burning with a bright green flame. The indestructible palm formed by countless tree branches burned from the inside in an instant and then shattered.

Sharon, who was far away in the depths of the jungle, let out a heart-wrenching scream and looked at her right hand in disbelief, which was actually burning with green flames.

This bone-eating pain was far more severe than when he was burned by dragon flames before.

And Sharon finally realized that the fear just now was not directed at herself, but at the Mother Goddess!

That is the power of the Forest Spirit, the filthy and despicable West Wind! Only the West Wind can harm the Mother Goddess's majesty!

Nia, who was in the middle of the storm, was not affected at all. She looked around at the fireflies and couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise: "This, this is also something you did?"

The girl stretched out her hand in the air, and with a flick of her finger, a bright green light dot danced on her fingertips like a clingy fairy. Nia said thoughtfully, "No, that's not right. This is..."

"Yes, this is your power." Roy smiled at her.

The West Wind, the source of life, is of the same magnitude as the Primordial Fire and is the true power of the Forest Spirits.

The power of [Withering of All Things] comes from the corrosion of life force, and the source of life, Xifeng, which contains pure life force, is the biggest nemesis of this group of fallen people.

Even though Nia's sequence is not enough and she has not yet mastered the source of life, the West Wind, [Blood Resonance] can activate her potential and overdraw this power in advance.

Even though neither of us had awakened our [False King] yet, the combined strength of Charlotte and I was enough to defeat Sequence 7. Now, Nia and I definitely had a chance to go head-to-head with the half-baked Sequence 6!

After realizing the power of this force, Nia's hands stopped shaking and her eyes were filled with fighting spirit.

Roy raised his eyebrows: "Are you ready?"

Nia clicked her lips: "I can't wait any longer."

"We can't wait to show this bastard our skills!"

Nia shouted loudly, and suddenly the sky was filled with wind and clouds, and emerald green thunder flashed.

That was not lightning, but violent and pure life energy.

The West Wind, the source of life, is like a fleeting wind. It can heal life like a breeze or destroy life like a hurricane. However, for [Withering of All Things], it will only bring the purest destruction.

The giant roared angrily and threw both fists at the same time, with a mighty force like a raging dragon, almost lifting the earth. However, his huge body was tightly surrounded by the hurricane, unable to break through this cage of wind.

And above the sky, the long-brewing gale was finally ready.

Accompanied by a roar that was duller, more violent, and more shocking than thunder.

The overwhelming wind pressure, carrying lightning and clouds, descended from the sky, as if half of the sky had fallen down.

The emerald green wind pressure was like a hammer of judgment, carrying an overwhelming force that completely engulfed the giant.

The earth wailed, the trees crawled on the ground, sand and rocks flew everywhere, and it was pitch dark.

The people of the Jinsha faction had to hold on to trees or boulders tightly to prevent themselves from being blown away.

In this situation, which was even more powerful than a typhoon, only Roy and Nia stood still, unaffected at all.

After an unknown amount of time, the wind finally died down. The sun shone again, and the fog that had surrounded them disappeared. Even the lush green forests and the strange branches that interspersed them disappeared. The entire ground was lifted up, revealing the damp soil.

The once unyielding giant had long since turned into fragments, leaving no trace.

At the same time, at the border of the secret realm.

The rescue team was struggling when they saw dark clouds and rumbling thunder in the distance, followed by a deafening roar.

Just when they were getting nervous thinking that the cultists were going to make some new move, they found that the chaotic forest suddenly quieted down. The cultists whose hands and feet had been cut off had no expression on their faces, like vegetables, and they all showed fear and retreated to the depths of the forest.

The rescue team who had saved their lives looked at each other, but were at a loss as to what to do.

The majestic transcendental fluctuations were at least at Sequence 6. Not only that, there was also a sense of oppression similar to that of the cultists, as if it were at a higher level.

Shaduo looked into the distance and couldn't help but frown, feeling uneasy about the shocking power.

"What on earth happened..."

Chapter 106 The Chaotic Current Situation

After the unusual incident in the Blue Trial, a rescue team consisting of the Emerald Council, the Blue Demon School, and the Magic Academy immediately launched a rescue operation. However, after fighting for several hours, they brought back bad news.

"The cultists have already set up a barrier, occupied the terrain, and even captured a number of students, so it is difficult to attack by force?" Every word Janetia said was squeezed out from between her teeth.

Not only her, but all the bigwigs from various forces in the conference room had gloomy faces and the atmosphere was extremely depressing.

The first person who couldn't sit still was a burly duke from the Kingdom of Sands.

"What the hell are the organizers of this trial doing?! Not only did they let the cultists in, but they couldn't even rescue them. What use are you?!"

Also angry was old Duke Raymond of the Lionheart Kingdom.

"If you are unable to resolve this situation, our Lionheart Knights are ready to do it for you at any time!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the representative of the South Sea Country, a squinty-eyed middle-aged man with blue hair, suddenly turned cold and sneered, "As expected of a northern barbarian, you have nothing but brawn in your head."

"What did you say?"

"Right now, the cultists have captured the children of nobles from various countries. A rash attack would inevitably provoke them to take action. If anything were to happen to the heirs of other countries, who would be held responsible? Or do you not care because fewer people have been captured in your kingdom?"

Old Raymond was scolded, while the Grand Duke of Jinsha beside him was so angry that he cursed: "If you don't use force, are you still going to negotiate with those unreasonable lunatics?!"

The cultists do not want gang members, money or power. They kidnapped the children of nobles just to stop their attacks, but they did not make any further statements.

In such a difficult situation, the representatives of the South China Sea countries remained silent.

The kind-faced priest laughed at this moment.

"Everyone, when it comes to dealing with cults, it should be left to our Holy Light Church..."

"Get lost!" "That's not necessary!" "Thank you!"

However, before he could finish his words, he was unanimously opposed by representatives from the three countries.

The Church was a professional organization, but it was ultimately an external force from the East. Unless absolutely necessary, it was a consensus among the nations of Veseria to avoid Church interference whenever possible.

After a long discussion, they argued with each other, accused each other, and ridiculed each other, making the atmosphere more and more tense. However, there was no progress on how to rescue the students.

It was not until the Sage sighed slightly and struck the ground with his wand, emitting a heavy and extraordinary wave, that this meaningless dispute was finally stopped.

"Everyone, now that [All Things Wither] has launched an attack and has held the nobles of various nations hostage, it's time for us to work together to resolve the problem. The crisis hasn't been resolved yet, yet we're fighting among ourselves. How can that be?"

"The cultists are unreasonable. There's no room for negotiation. We have no choice but to resort to force. However, as the intelligence brought back by the rescue team shows, they've already made arrangements and set up a barrier. We need to carefully consider how to organize a rescue team."

The rescue team was obviously stronger than the cultists who had sneaked into the forest, but they were still in a tough battle and almost suffered destruction.

The fundamental reason is that [Withering of All Things] has set up a barrier in advance that is sufficient to control the entire forest, greatly enhancing their combat power.

According to Shaduo, the academy teacher who led the team, if there had not been a new change in the forest that caused the cultists to retreat on their own initiative, let alone save people, their rescue team would have been wiped out there.

Only with the leadership of a highly respected [Sage] could the course of action be finally decided.

However, when the meeting ended and everyone dispersed, Janetia did not stand up.

When she and Booker were alone, Jantia sighed and told the truth.

"Sorry, it's my problem this time."

"The person responsible for arranging the trial was replaced by a cult. This shows that there are problems with the top management of the Emerald Council itself."

However, Booker smiled bitterly and told her worse news.

"It's not just you. There's a problem at the academy as well. Just now, my people found the body of Mr. Poker, the teacher in charge of setting up the trial."

Janetia couldn't help rubbing her stinging forehead.

No wonder so many cultists were able to sneak in at once. It turned out that there was a problem on both sides, no, it was very likely that even the Magicians' Society had problems.

The extent of the cultists' infiltration far exceeded their imagination.

In particular, Janetia did not expect that even though she had sent rangers to instruct the people of the Emerald Council to pay more attention to the safety of the secret realm, it was still in vain.

The powerful barrier and the hostages of the nobles' children were not really difficult problems.

What makes them most afraid to act rashly is the traitor within.

Since they can play tricks before a trial, why can't they play tricks on the rescue team?

Since there are traitors in the Emerald Council and the Magic Academy, how can other forces be fully trusted?

However, they cannot just sit and wait for death.

Janetia looked at the old man beside her: "What you said just now was just to buy time, right? Sitting and waiting for death is not your style."

The old man smiled slightly, with a gleam in his eyes: "Don't worry, my people are ready."

How could it be possible that a veteran extraordinary person who has been in charge of the academy for many years does not have a few trustworthy confidants?

"It's true, however, that it will take some time. Until then, the children will have to rely on themselves."

When Janetia heard this, a more melancholy look flashed across her face.

She looked up at the overcast sky, and in a trance, she seemed to be back to the day when she learned of Ain's death.
