Flora's appearance had changed a lot since the last time Brando saw her. First of all, her silver hair was dyed black by a strange power. Secondly, her clear eyes were now much darker, which made her exude a strange charm. But the look on the girl's face was as calm as ever. Even when she saw the little female dragon, her expression did not change at all.
There were seven or eight companions behind her. If Brando guessed correctly, those should be the dragons controlled by the Twilight Dragon. The other party obviously came with ill intentions. When these dragons were combined, they were a powerful force. Although he had mastered the power of the Sage, it was not easy to deal with several dragons.
What's more, Brando understood that this was the place in Wohnde closest to the Sea of Chaos and Magic. It was the base camp of the Twilight Dragon. The other party must have more than that. Sure enough, after a while, everyone saw a shadow appear behind Flora and the others.
The first thing Brando noticed was a giant beast. The monster's upper body was like a giant, with two heads and four arms. Its face was covered with snow-white bone plates. The bright red muscles on its arms were exposed above the bone aponeurosis. The end of each arm was forked, forming a black tentacle.
The lower half of the monster's body was a lump of disgusting rotten flesh. Below its lower abdomen hung a deformed head or something as disgusting as intestines. Its ribs and pelvis were exposed, gleaming with a cold light like the edge of a blade. The monster used the tentacles extended from the rotten meat to move. It was twenty or thirty feet tall.
Brando recognized this terrible evil thing. It was a kind of predator, the Devourer of Divinity, one of the most famous Lords of Ether. Its power was enough to reach the peak of the supreme realm. Because it had a trace of divinity, it could even use part of the power of the Sage.
But the appearance of this thing at least made Brando relieved. Presumably, this was the strongest power that the Sheep-Head believers had here. It was also the ruler of all the Predators of Ether. Fortunately, there was no demigod opponent here. It should be noted that the top predators in the Void, such as the Eternal Trauma and the Butcher of Truth, were not inferior to the real gods. However, most of those terrifying names existed in the ancient times, and they had long been annihilated in the earliest wars.
A Devourer of Divinity was already considered one of the top combat forces in this era. He knew this monster from the end of the game in his previous life, in the version where Échis perished. An adult Devourer of Divinity was the boss of a large dungeon at that time. He still remembered that the last boss of that dungeon was Échis' sixth daughter, Tadessa.
Even so, the combination of eight to nine dragons and a Devourer of Divinity still made one feel heavy and oppressed, not to mention the ordinary Void Predators and elite Void Predators that surged forth like a tide under the command of the Ether Lord. These monsters of the Chaos had been hiding in the hills, and now they finally revealed their ferocious faces.
"They used illusions to hide their figures." Huang Huo whispered, "Teacher, be careful, there may be an ambush nearby."
Brando shook his head. Illusions were not omnipotent. Since the other party dared to expose themselves, it would definitely arouse the vigilance of his side. They should not be stupid enough to use this trick again and again. But even so, he still used his Darkness Perception to scan his surroundings. What surprised him was that his Darkness Perception seemed to be exceptionally powerful in this place. Perhaps the Darkness Magic that pervaded this plane enhanced his senses. He really didn't sense the presence of any ambushers in other directions.
"Brendel, please give me the Hibiscus Spell," the little female dragon said with some urgency.
"No." Brando's opinion was the opposite of hers. He frowned as he stared at the army of monsters coming in their direction and ordered sternly, "Leave Flora and the other dragons to me. You deal with the Devourer of Divinity. Aloz, Huang Huo, Fang Qi, Mr. Liu, you protect the others, especially Miss Delfien. Without her, we will not be able to leave this place."
Huang Huo and the others nodded seriously. Only Fang Qi seemed a little slack, but Brando knew that his nonchalance was just an act. This young man from the Phantom Chariot was arrogant but smart. He had always gone all out in battle. If you thought that he would be careless and underestimate the enemy, you would probably be fooled.
Ling and Lian automatically stood in the middle of the crowd. The half-elf sisters knew that they could only be regarded as a burden in this team. However, they had always been more mature and well-behaved than ordinary little girls. They didn't do anything out of the ordinary out of fear.
Magadal stood with the two little ladies, wanting to comfort them, but in fact, she was much more nervous than Ling and Lotus. She even took out the Book of Gaia. For the time being, she wasn't very proficient in using this book. She wasn't clear about her strength and potential. In fact, she still didn't understand why the War Goddesses wanted her to come to this place.
But she had always been gentle and resigned. Besides, Brando had saved her life, and she did not object out of gratitude. In Magadal's opinion, the War Goddesses who taught her a lot of new knowledge were also very respectful of Brando, and even considered themselves as his subordinates. Their opinion should at least represent part of Brando's will.
Although on this point, the Nun Princess had completely misunderstood. In fact, Brando did not know why Andrea and the others would make such a suggestion.
After hearing Brando's suggestion, Aloz pouted slightly. But this little female dragon also understood that she was not suitable to face Flora, or else it would only be a repeat of the tragedy in the Tauchik Swamp. She did not care what Flora did to her, and was even willing to die in the hands of her partner. But she also understood that her decision was related to the survival of the whole team, and Brando alone could not fight against all of them.
"Are you … okay, stinky human?" Aloz asked with some concern. "There are so many of them, it is already very difficult for me to deal with two of them."
Brando nodded. Whether he could hold on or not, it would depend on the strength of the Sage Domain. Based on his experience in the game in his previous life, even in the first stage of the Perfect Body Stage, players would not be able to fight against a few adult dragons. But the players' Perfect Body Stage was not complete, and his Sage Domain was the real Sage Domain. It was an experience that none of the players in his previous life had experienced. Although he had never experienced this stage, he could faintly feel that in some ways, the power he had now was not inferior to his heyday in his previous life.
Of course, the specifics still needed to be verified by actual combat. As a warrior, he believed in the theory of actual combat. Without experiencing the real test of life and death, all experience and theory were just for show.
Not to mention he still had a trump card. After several battles, Huang Huo was no longer the same as before. In fact, Brando found that the little princess of the Jade Phoenix bloodline's amazing combat intuition came from her keen sense of danger. This sense of smell was outstanding when she put down the sword in her hand. After the battle with the Sheep Head Disciples in the Tauchik Swamp, he deliberately guided the little princess to not use a sword to fight. The effect was obvious, and it could be said that she improved a lot. She often fought with Aloz, and at first she was completely suppressed, but it did not take long for her to come back. Even the little female dragon said that Huang Huo was a rare genius.
He also gave the little girl a pair of boxing gloves, which was given to him by the Tirmosian of the Ice Sea Clan. It was one of the few treasured weapons in the Tirmosian's collection. This thing was not of much use to him, because he was not good at hand-to-hand combat, but this boxing glove was very strange. It was a typical weapon in the style of the Nine Phoenix, called the Nine Phoenix Gloves. It was a pair of satin boxing gloves, with deerskin and jade finger brass knuckles at the joints of the gloves. After enchantment, it was especially hard.
This glove was a weapon that had reached the highest quality of legendary equipment. Of course, this was nothing in the collection of the Tyrmosi people. What was interesting was that there were seven jade pendants on this glove. Every time a jade pendant was activated, it would gain a kind of power. Although this power could only be activated once a day, it was very powerful. This made this glove, which was not considered the best overall, have the potential to be called a sub-divine weapon.
Huang Huo loved this boxing glove. Of course, on the one hand, this represented the recognition of her teacher, but more of the power of the seven jade pendants. According to Huang Huo, the power of the seven jade pendants was not groundless. The concept they represented was a continuation of the philosophy of the Nine Phoenix, which was close to the power of the Tao. It was especially compatible with the idea of the Nine Phoenix's' Unity of Heaven and Man '.
Of course, more importantly, under the buff of this boxing glove, Huang Huo's strength could barely reach the level of Aloz. This was something that the Sheep Head Disciple and Akentu did not know, and Fu Luofa should not be very clear about this.
On the other hand, Fang Qi and Mr. Liu were not weak either. In fact, after taking back the Sacred Jade Sword, Fang Qi was even stronger. In addition, they still had a hidden combat power, and that was Princess Magadal. Although Brando did not know how much power the Nun Princess had mastered, according to Andrea's description, as long as she could exert 30% of the power of the Book of Gaia, Fang Qi and Huang Huo together should not be her opponent.
With these trump cards, Brando could fight with peace of mind, but he was not in a hurry to make a move. He knew that the next battle had nothing to do with him. He only needed to pay attention to Fu Luofa and the dragons behind her.
