Elsa opened her mouth and bitterly smiled as she looked at Jeremy. She managed to persuade that human mage with great difficulty, but he actually forgot himself. Did he really think that he was afraid?
"Jeremy …"
Jeremy coldly snorted, interrupting Elsa's next words.
"Elsa, I know what you want to say. You don't need to say anything, I've already seen through that human, that despicable clown. I already know what he's planning!"
Then, Jeremy looked at Lin Yun with a wisp of pity in his eyes, as if it was too much of a charity.
"Stupid guy, you'd best be honest. What plot do you have against the Dark Elven Race? "As long as you tell me everything and come back with me, I'll plead for leniency in front of the Elder Council. You won't be executed. At most, your mana will be crippled, but your life will be spared."
Seeing Lin Yun 'startled expression, Jeremy couldn't help smiling.
'Damned Human, I've finally seen through you?
As long as you dare to touch me, my father will mobilize the entire Dark Elven Race to avenge me. At that time, you will die miserably, your soul won't be able to rest in peace. Thus, you don't dare to kill a Dark Elf like me, you are only bluffing! '
Jeremy sneered, as if victory was already in his grasp. He was suspended in the air, looking down at Lin Yun.
The startled expression on Lin Yun 'face disappeared and was replaced by calmness, absolute calmness, as if he didn't have a single trace of emotion. He was speaking in a flat and monotonous tone, minding his own business.
"I was originally thinking about how to persuade you to take the initiative to sacrifice yourself. After all, taking the initiative to sacrifice yourself is the best, forcing it might not be able to achieve the best results. But it looks like you've already helped me choose …"
Jeremy's face was filled with astonishment, but soon after, cold sweat broke out all over his body, and miserable screams began to ring out.
The Hell Vine's four thick thorns had pierced Jeremy's palms and soles, and a large amount of blood was flowing out of those four bloody holes.
The blood was like a small stream of water, dripping from the sky to the ground. The Hell Vines did not absorb the blood.
Along with the squirming of the Hell Vines, a thick spike grew bigger and bigger in front of Jeremy's face. Jeremy looked at the spike in horror and let out a blood-curdling scream.
However, it had no effect at all. Lin Yun's expression was cold as the spike slowly pierced into Jeremy's forehead, creating a bloody hole. Blood flowed out of the bloody hole, making Jeremy look like a ghost covered in blood.
Struggling, screaming …
The more he struggled, the more spikes pierced into his body. His body kept twitching, but the spikes cut more wounds on his body. In an instant, Jeremy was covered in blood. A large amount of blood gathered from his body and flowed to the ground like a small stream.
As for Lin Yun, he took out a crystal pen and started rapidly drawing a mysterious and strange array on the ground.
On the side, Elsa was already stunned. Things happened too fast, Jeremy barely managed to say a few words before suffering another miserable torture. But this time, Elsa didn't know how to persuade him.
By the time Lin Yun finished drawing runes and patterns, the outline of a five-meter-big array was quickly formed.
Elsa looked at this outline, and especially when she saw that the array Lin Yun was outlining matched one of the arrays in her memory. Elsa's complexion instantly paled.
"Heavens, this is the Elven Elegy …"
Elsa's fingers were shaking. She was too familiar with this thing. It was something she had been taught by her mother. She had been strictly required to master this array before taking over as the Empress of the Dark Elven Race.
This was something every Empress of the Dark Elves had to master. It was also the final trump card the Empress would use when the Dark Elves encountered an irresistible calamity.
Elven Elegy … Just from the name, it was clear that it wasn't a good thing for the Elves.
In fact, the Elven Elegy was the final trump card of the Elven Race when facing a powerful enemy. When used by the Empress, she would sacrifice all her power and use her blood as a guide to draw out the power of nature.
Every time she used it, she would be able to repel a powerful enemy, but the consequences would be that she would lose eight hundred of her own. Every Empress would only have one chance to use the Elven Elegy in their lifetime. After using it, the probability of surviving wasn't very high. Even if they survived, they would only be a cripple that could die at any time.
To Dark Elves, losing their mana could already be said to be dead.
But wasn't this array something that only the successors of the Elven Royal Family could come into contact with? How could this human know how to draw an array at such a fast speed?
I saw my mother draw it once, but it wasn't even a tenth of his speed. How could this be!?
Didn't Mother say that the Elven Elegy had to be drawn by the Empress herself, mixed with her own blood, and that she had to be willing to sacrifice herself to activate it?
Why did High Mage Merlin draw it himself? He even wanted Jeremy to sacrifice himself, how could he succeed?
Elsa foolishly looked at Lin Yun rapidly drawing the array. With her experience, she could recognize that this was the Elven Elegy, but she couldn't see the difference between this array and the Elven Elegy passed down by the Dark Elves.
When the screaming Jeremy heard Elsa's cry of alarm, he immediately recalled the information regarding the Elven Elegy. That thing was really too famous, every Dark Elf knew its name, but the ones who knew the general information were the nobles of the clan.
And Jeremy clearly had the qualifications to know, but the more he knew, the more afraid he became. As the Dark Elven Princess, Elsa definitely wouldn't be mistaken.
'Damn, does that human really want to kill me?
Impossible, how could the Elven Elegy be used by a human mage? It's absolutely impossible! '
But a large amount of blood was flowing out of his body, and it could even be seen that the array Lin Yun had drawn was being sucked in. His blood kept invading the array and flowing with the patterns of the array, as if it was being guided by a strange power.
"Aaah …"
The pain made his body feel numb, but there was still a large amount of pain attacking his mind. Jeremy couldn't help letting out a blood-curdling screech. He had already forgotten about Lin Yun, so he could only ask Elsa for help.
"Elsa, hurry up and save me! Hurry up, this human is crazy! You know, you definitely know! Sh * t, hurry up and save me!"
"Aaah …"
Jeremy's face contorted in pain as he roared at Elsa.
Elsa clenched her teeth, the magic patterns on her body already starting to shine. She looked at Lin Yun with an awkward expression. "Lord Merlin, please let Jeremy go. You can't successfully use the Elven Elegy, this array can only succeed if an Elf takes the initiative to sacrifice himself …"
Lin Yun was engrossed in drawing the array, simply ignoring Elsa. He didn't have much time left, the Flame Elemental Dragon and the Hell Bull were about to be killed by Curio.
The huge number of Abyssal lifeforms in the surroundings were also being suppressed by Anderfa's group.
As they kept retreating, Curio was about to reach the location of the Teleportation Array, while they were getting further and further away from the Teleportation Array.
That Teleportation Array was imprinted on a branch of the Wisdom Tree. Ordinary Abyssal lifeforms couldn't destroy it, but that didn't include Curio. If the main body of the Teleportation Array was destroyed, it would truly be over.
In the sealed environment of the Night Valley, not only Curio, but also Duncan, who was half a step into the Heaven Rank, would definitely die.
They had to suppress Curio in one go and force him back, only then would they have the opportunity to repair the Teleportation Array.
As Lin Yun was engrossed in drawing the array, Elsa clenched her teeth and a magic pattern on her body shone. A meteor with a diameter of half a meter fell down from the sky, its target was Lin Yun.
Since Lin Yun wasn't going to listen to her, she could only interrupt Lin Yun's drawing of the array. At the very least, she couldn't let him continue.
Lin Yun's hands didn't stop drawing the array, his eyes firmly staring at the ground. But above his head, a blue fireball with a long tail was flying towards the sky.
In an instant, Elsa's meteor was blown away. Then, a blue fireball fell from the sky at an extremely fast speed and landed in front of Elsa in an instant.
Elsa cried out in alarm and promptly cast a Mana Shield.
Two loud explosions echoed, and Elsa let out a muffled groan. Her shield was shattered, and she was sent flying.
At this time, Lin Yun coldly warned her without raising his head.
"This is your last chance. It won't be so simple if you attack me again."
After crawling up from the ground, Elsa wiped the blood at the corner of her mouth with a bitter smile.
'Merlin is really powerful, and terrifyingly powerful. He used that kind of speed to draw the Elven Elegy without even raising his head, using his formidable control to send the Bursting Flames flying into the sky, repelling all the power of the array.
'He even instant-cast a Bursting Flames at the same time to force me back. This kind of casting speed, control, and the ability to draw the array … Even an Archmage of the same rank as me can't have this kind of casting speed …
'What kind of monster is he …'
Elsa thoroughly gave up on saving Jeremy after one move. This was simply impossible, and since it was impossible, there was still a huge threat like Curio in the distance. She could only focus on the outside first. In any case, the Elven Elegy couldn't be successfully roused.
