I felt that Little Girl Xi had been frightened.
Yep, this was normal. In the short span of a dozen or so seconds, anyone would first be trapped in a black mist, then the sky would explode with energy, and then a gigantic wave of lava that was a hundred times more powerful than a tsunami. When they finally came back to their senses, they would discover that they were trapped in a pool of lava that spanned nearly a thousand square kilometers, surrounded by a deadly high temperature and molten steam that was enough to kill any normal living being — Cirvanas was already quite calm even though she was in a daze.
After a long while, Cirvanas finally came back to her senses. Then, with an expression that was on the verge of collapse, she asked, "God Envoy … you didn't just cast a forbidden spell directly above our heads, did you?"
For the Dark Queen to have such a conflicted expression, shouldn't I give myself an autograph or something?
"This … it's obvious …"
I awkwardly pointed at the lava lake around us. I was also quite depressed — why had I been trapped by my own ultimate spell?
"Ahem, ahem. Cirvanas, your cloak seems to be smoking …"
Alright, I admit that I instantly regretted saying that. If I had reminded her a little later, I might have been able to see Little Girl Xi's naked body … My sins, my sins. With two precious Shallow Shallow and Sandora, I definitely had to mercilessly use the Ten Great Tortures of the Qing Dynasty to destroy such thoughts while they were still budding.
With my reminder, Cirvanas hurriedly tightened the cloak that accidentally came into contact with the lava. However, compared to this small detail, our current situation was far from optimistic. The lava around us was still far from cooling down, and the small patch of ground beneath our feet didn't seem to be able to last much longer. You want me to swim across a lava lake that was more than ten kilometers long?
… Wouldn't it be more efficient to just stick a peanut on my temple?
"God Envoy, what should we do now?"
Cirvanas couldn't help but feel anxious when she saw me staring blankly at the lava beneath my feet. The Dark Queen now completely believed in the limitless power of God Envoys when faced with the hellish scene around us. Naturally, she placed all her hopes on me, which was why when she saw me staring blankly for a long time without saying anything, she also became anxious.
At this time, I had recovered less than 1% of my spiritual power. I couldn't even ask Anveena for help …
Under normal circumstances, my MP recovery speed wouldn't be this slow. Due to my special property of being able to resonate with almost any form of energy and use it as my own, my MP recovery speed could be described as instantaneous. However, this time, I had used up too much of my MP. I didn't even have enough MP left to open up my personal space, so there was no way to talk about assimilating the surrounding energy to replenish my MP. Thus, my MP recovery speed was naturally much slower. It could be said that apart from my physical body that was similar to a main battle tank, I was basically no different from a normal person. Besides, we all knew that even the strongest main battle tank couldn't drive across a lava lake that was more than 10 kilometers long …
"Master!"
Just when I was at my wits' end, a heavenly voice came from above us.
Anveena, you really are my savior! You're an angel! You're a genuine angel!
I lifted my head, my heart full of tears.
Anveena flapped her enormous wings and landed in front of us.
Well, from a certain point of view, this little specter was now a bona fide angel.
"Master, are you alright?"
The moment Anveena landed, she immediately retracted her wings. She didn't have much holy energy in her body to begin with, and this time, she had continuously used her holy energy to the limit. If it wasn't for the fact that she could use the angel feathers in her body to recharge her energy, she would have already died when the satellite cannon exploded. Right now, even the angel feathers in her body were almost out of energy, so she was naturally trying to conserve as much energy as possible.
Without the assistance of her wings, although Anveena could still fly, she definitely wouldn't be able to carry two people with her. However, I didn't intend to let a little girl carry two adults like us across a lava lake that was more than 10 kilometers wide. I was thinking that she probably had a means of transportation in her personal space, right?
Although I usually saw this lass stuff piles of rags, mops, pots and pans into her personal space …
Fortunately, Anveena really did have a means of transportation in her personal space. It was said that this lass had inherited a maid's code of conduct from who knows where. As a qualified maid, she must have everything from a needle and thread to something as big as a self-propelled cannon. Therefore, it was perfectly normal for her to have one or two armed transport boats in her personal space …
What I wanted to say was, what kind of maid's code of conduct would have such a rule? Are you sure that this is the code of conduct for a maid, and not the code of conduct for a soldier of the Empire that a war loli gave you? Are you sure that your goal in life is to become a qualified maid, and not a Terminator who carries a rocket launcher on his shoulder and a heavy machine gun in his hand?
Also, what kind of person would treat something like a self-propelled cannon as a daily necessity?!
That was what I thought when I heard Anveena explain why she had hidden an armed transport boat under 1200 mops.
Well, the maid code in An Weina's head that was filled with shocking details was her own problem, so we wouldn't pursue it. At the very least, with a transport airship, I wouldn't need to swim naked in magma, which was a good thing.
Towards the Schilling transport boat, this kind of high-tech product that was decades ahead of Azeroth's civilization, Sylvanas expressed considerable curiosity and envy. As a leader, she was the first to realize the significance of such an extremely fast military transport tool that could be used in battle. However, I rationally chose to remain silent towards her endless questions regarding this miraculous tool. Firstly, this kind of thing was classified as a military secret, and secondly, Azeroth's current level of technology wasn't able to grasp such advanced technology. More importantly …
Cough cough … I don't understand those questions either …
What are you laughing at?! Do you really need to know how to lay eggs just because you know how to eat eggs?
Just as I was letting my imagination run wild … yep, I was thinking about what it meant for the Abyss to personally take part in this ambush, I suddenly heard a rather familiar mental voice in the depths of my mind. "Ah Jun, Ah Jun, can you hear me?"
"Shallow Shallow? What's the matter, why are you in such a hurry? "
"That's great, we finally got in touch. We suddenly lost contact with you just now … Ah Jun, how are you? Are you hurt? "
Shallow Shallow's words instantly made me nervous. I hurriedly asked, "What's the matter, Shallow Shallow, did you guys get attacked as well?"
The one who answered me was Sandora who suddenly interrupted me. "As expected, all of us were attacked."
Shallow Shallow continued, "But only you, Ah Jun, lost contact with us. We were so worried! If it wasn't for Lin Xue being able to confirm that you guys were safe, we … "
Only then did I finally realize that when Cirvanas and I were surrounded by the nearly undying Abyss, other than Sives who stayed behind to keep Theramore in contact with the Beastmen, all the teams that went to meet with the leaders of the major races were attacked at the same time. Furthermore, the method of the attack was shockingly similar: A small team that was patrolling or garrisoned in a secluded area was completely annihilated. Then, the sole survivor came back to report the appearance of the mutated Demon. Then, he was lured away from the mountain and attacked by the Abyss in the wilderness …
The only difference was that it seemed that other than us, at least one person in every team was suspicious of the sole 'survivor'. In other words, they were all playing along, and I was the only one who was fooled …
This was a truly tearful truth.
Fortunately, although we had all been attacked, the enemy had clearly underestimated our strength. Apart from a certain little bean who had gotten carried away by his victory and sprained his waist while flying in the air, no one else had been injured. I had only temporarily lost contact with them due to the interference from the satellite cannons. It could be considered a false alarm.
Things seemed to be getting a little interesting.
