She heard an illusion-like snapping sound, and the iron shackles binding the dragon fell off silently.
Michelle was not fearless, but she temporarily forgot fear. There would always be someone who could make you forget pain and fear in an instant, and the overflowing anger was the source of her power.
She didn't know much about martial arts techniques. Charging forward with bare hands, without thinking, she directly collided with the waist of the three-headed Chimera. The blazing Dragon Blood Battle Qi wrapped around her like armor. Although her charge appeared clumsy, it was like a car driving at full speed.
Since it's a car, it can definitely kill people.
The Chimera was knocked over and rolled on the ground before finally stabilizing its body. Its claws pierced the ground, scratching the smooth tiles.
After sending the Chimera flying, Michelle immediately landed and used both her hands and feet to stabilize herself.
She lifted her eyes and noticed that under the siege of two monsters, Alena used the most straightforward method to protect herself. She wrapped her body in fresh blood, forming a shield. It resembled a tightly closed flower bud. Although its defensive power was strong, the cost was that she could no longer move.
Through the semi-transparent, icy blue lotus emitting cold air, she could see Alena with closed eyes hugging her arms.
Chicken Snake lifted its foot claw, intending to dig Alena out from inside, leaving behind marks and scratches.
Michelle was stunned.
The two monsters ignored the many people in the shopping mall and aimed at Alena, which completely went against the logical behavior of monsters. The summoning crystals from earlier also indicated that these two monsters were summoned.
What should she do?
She anxiously thought about a strategy, but the Chimera was completely unscathed. The high-temperature flames failed to burn its body. Advanced monsters were not afraid of ordinary flames, unless she could squeeze out a blast of dragon's breath. Ordinary Dragonborn flames were only good for intimidation and had no practical use.
No matter how much she thought about it, she couldn't come up with a good solution. The only thing she could do was rush to Alena's side and slap at the ice layer she had formed, shouting, "Come out quickly!"
Alena raised her eyes and shook her head. She struggled to speak and only said one word, "Go!"
She made a decisive decision to stay. Since the monsters were targeting her, she had no reason to continue running.
She couldn't outrun the Chicken Snake and Chimera with her speed, so it was better to stay and buy time. Every second counted, as it meant saving one more person.
Capesh was a hero's surname. Heroes couldn't flee in the face of danger.
Alena didn't have the ability to deal with two advanced monsters. No matter how powerful a warrior was, it was difficult to fight a tiger barehanded. Even the Knight Order needed three great knights to contain and control the damage.
Michelle wanted to say something and continued pounding the ice, but danger came from behind. She crouched down, but her foot slipped, causing her to slip and fall to the side from the belly of the Chicken Snake, avoiding its terrifying tail swipe. A load-bearing pillar was shattered in the process.
The Chimera opened its mouth, with flames converging in the mouth of one of its heads. It sprayed the condensed ice crystal, causing the ice to rapidly melt at a visible speed.
Michelle struggled to breathe as scorching dragon fire overflowed from her throat.
She made several attempts to charge forward, but was blocked by the Chicken Snake. This advanced monster kept knocking her back like it was batting a ball.
She fell to the ground, her clothes torn by shrapnel. Blood mixed with flames spread across the ground, igniting her bloodshot eyes.
She struggled to raise her face, blood flowing down her nose. Her left eye was submerged in blood, and even the gaps between her teeth were stained red.
"Alena..."
She lay on her side on the ground, and the Chicken Snake had already turned its head, losing interest in her, and continued to pound the icy cocoon.
Michelle pounded the ground in extreme frustration. She had no control over her strength and lacked experience, becoming like a wild boar thrashing about when enraged. Despite not inflicting any harm on the enemy, she was covered in her own blood.
But was she really powerless, condemned to just watch? Was there really nothing she could do?
Anyone, please help me, save her... Take whatever it costs!
She prayed for a miracle in her heart.
Michelle was such a weak girl. When she was scared, she would curl up. Inheriting the bloodline of a dragon, she seemed like a soft and docile puppet that anyone could mold. Her personality was gentle, and when faced with danger, she would try to hide. If that didn't work, she would resort to cuteness to ask for help.
She was very weak, and from the beginning, she knew she didn't have the power to defy fate. Therefore, she had no expectations.
Is it wrong for weak people to pray for miracles?
Her blood-red eyes stared at the crumbling icy cocoon, when suddenly, she heard a familiar voice.
“Who is calling for a miracle?”
...Mr. Devil...
Familiar voice, familiar tone, Michelle almost cried.
No, she really burst into tears.
Although they had never met and had only communicated for a few hours, most of her expectations for miracles were placed on this completely unknown person, praying that Mr. Devil would hear her pleas.
"Please, save Alena..." she sobbed.
"But didn't you beat her up just two days ago?" Mr. Devil's words remained calm and relaxed, as if he was observing two vicious dogs attacking a poor black cat on the roadside during a leisurely stroll.
"Please." Michelle pleaded, "Just like last time."
"It's not possible." The young man shook his head regretfully.
"Why?" Michelle's heart sank.
"Your body can't withstand the level of intensity."
"I can handle it, so..."
"Silly girl, I'm a devil. Devils don't lie. The two advanced magical beasts are beyond what you can handle now, especially considering that they have been modified as well."
Michelle felt even colder inside. "So, is there really no solution at all?"
"There is a solution, and you know it," the young man's tone was coaxing.
"Please tell me!" Michelle shouted, "There's no time!"
"Humanity finds it difficult to deal with summoned magical beasts using their own flesh and blood. So what's the most suitable solution? Is it to engage in hand-to-hand combat? No, of course not... I haven't seen many duelists or trainers personally fighting themselves," Mr. Devil explained. "The best way is to use magic to defeat magic, to summon in response to summons. Isn't that what you just learned in today's lesson?"
Michelle did learn summoning, but she could only summon the lowest level elemental spirits, such as a water frog that could only blow soap bubbles.
"Please don't joke."
"Why would I make boring jokes at a time like this?"
"But..."
"I said, you do it."
"I..." Michelle hesitated, she just didn't believe in herself.
"If you hesitate any longer, your dear friend will be gone."
"Alright!" Michelle struggled to prop up her upper body and began drawing the summoning using her own blood as a foundation. At the same time, she followed the young man's words and started chanting the ancient summoning incantation.
"In the name of gold,"
"In the name of gold..."
"Under the blessing of the golden tree,"
"Under the blessing of the golden tree..."
She recited each word slowly, and as the ceremony progressed, she gradually immersed herself in a sea, a strange landscape.
She saw a golden tree, which was not as large as it is today, nor did it reach a height of a kilometer, but only five or six meters tall.
Under the golden tree, a figure sat with their back facing the view, resting against the trunk. A gust of wind brushed by, causing the leaves of the golden tree to rustle and fall onto the person's shoulders, gently caressing their cheek.
“I call upon your name, great king, conqueror..."
She continued reciting, and in the next instant, the scenery changed drastically. She saw flames engulfing cities, storms scattering mountains, iron hooves covering the grasslands, and entire cities going up in smoke. Countless people bowed down before that figure.
Her voice also began to tremble. She didn't know what she was summoning, but it seemed to be some kind of terrifying presence.
But she couldn't stop anymore.
“Oh, golden one, heavenly heights... Please allow me this impolite visit, bestow upon me your glory, I will be overwhelmed with joy."
“May this world be an eternal golden courtyard."
Dong! The Honglu bell resounded, and the sound waves reverberated, deafening the girl's ears. The silver 'Mentor Card' she had drawn from her pocket quietly shattered.
Suddenly, a strong wind blew on the ground, carrying golden specks of light. The leaves of the golden tree, which covered half of the sky, fluttered and scattered, settling down.
The young man spread open his palm and caught the golden leaf, stretching lazily as if declaring his authority to the heavens and the earth. His golden eyes shimmered brightly.
“A truly nostalgic feeling." He sighed softly. "I'm back... everything has returned."
