Boom~
The enormous Fireball roaring in from behind, considerably larger than Little Red Pupil’s body, grazed past her pale red wings and crashed into the ground not far away, blasting out a massive crater. Four
Whine~
With a stylish 180-degree tail flick, Little Red Pupil narrowly dodged the Fireball. Turning her head to look at the explosion on the ground, she could not help but shiver in midair.
‘If I get hit by that huge Fireball, I’ll probably be finished in one shot, whine!’
“Heh heh heh heh heh heh… Hahaha, little loach, why are you trembling? Don’t tell me you’re scared out of your wits! But even if you kneel down and beg for mercy now, it’s too late!”
As if he had seen Little Red Pupil’s fear, the evil Black Dragon Nigal, who had usurped another’s body, had a trace of amusement and delight flickering in his pure-black, sharp dragon eyes.
The next second, he closed in once more and resumed the chase.
Standing atop Little Red Pupil’s head, Su Qi looked at Nigal pressing close behind them. Because she was wearing the Dragon Rider Suit and could share senses with Little Red Pupil, Su Qi’s delicate brows could not help but furrow slightly.
Through the feedback, Su Qi could sense that Little Red Pupil’s current condition was not very good. After prolonged attacking and exertion, even with Su Qi, her Dragon Rider, continuously replenishing her energy, Little Red Pupil still seemed somewhat exhausted.
Besides that, Little Red Pupil was, at most, still a young Dragon.
Before today, the little one had never even fought before.
Now she had immediately been thrown into battle against a world-class BOSS like the Big Black Dragon. In every sense, this was making things difficult for the little one.
Just as Su Qi was thinking about how to break the deadlock, the girls beside her seemed to sense Little Red Pupil’s faint trembling of fear, so they softly began talking to Little Red Pupil one after another.
“Little Red Pupil, don’t be scared. We’re all staying with you.”
“We’ll run away for a while first. Maybe that Big Guy behind us will run out of strength.”
“Little Red Pupil, remember those cartoons we watched? Whenever the bad guy transforms, the transformation always has a time limit. If we stall for a while longer, this Big Black Dragon won’t be able to keep going.”
It had to be said that perhaps there really was some mysterious rule that Lolis understood the hearts of little girls better.
After hearing An Xiaoling’s unique reassurance, Little Red Pupil, who had watched many anime where “justice always triumphs” despite countless hardships, finally regained some confidence.
Feeling Little Red Pupil’s condition improve, Su Qi relaxed a little.
However, her delicate brows remained slightly furrowed. After all, An Xiaoling’s words were merely comfort, while what they truly lacked now was a way to break the deadlock.
More importantly, before the battle had even begun an hour ago, Su Qi had been bullied by the girls the entire time, continuously replenishing Little Red Pupil’s energy.
Now her little belly was already completely deflated. If she did not replenish something soon, and could not produce her special lunchboxes, then without an energy supply, wouldn’t Little Red Pupil even lose the strength to escape? At that point, everything would truly be over!
What should I do?
Just as Su Qi was anxiously pondering, she suddenly felt a familiar aura coming from the direction of the World Tree.
Not long afterward, Su Qi saw a silver shadow begin rapidly flying toward Little Red Pupil.
Looking at that familiar silver body, Su Qi froze for a moment.
‘This size, this color… Isn’t that the Big Guy?’
‘When did the Big Guy learn to fly?’
Su Qi noticed this change, and the evil Black Dragon who was giving chase also locked his cold dragon eyes onto the Big Guy.
In terms of size, the Big Guy was somewhat larger than Little Red Pupil and looked quite fierce.
But compared with the enormous and pure-blooded Black Dragon, this sort of imposing presence seemed insignificant.
Looking at the Big Guy coming to help Little Red Pupil, Nigal initially did not pay much attention to it. Instead, a hint of excitement appeared in his dragon eyes.
After all, if this Big Guy had come to help Little Red Pupil, it meant that the two had a very good relationship. Thinking about what Little Red Pupil had done to him just now, the villain had already decided how he would deal with the Big Guy first, watch Little Red Pupil become utterly heartbroken, and then viciously deal with Little Red Pupil so she would understand the consequences of angering him.
Nigal had used this sort of scenario against many humans and enemies on the Death Continent before.
Recalling those close enemies who had initially become excited and encouraged upon seeing their companions,
then seeing the anger, frustration, and unwillingness in their eyes after he defeated their companions… and finally defeating them helplessly while they remained in that state of mind, Nigal’s dragon eyes filled with even greater amusement at the thought that he could soon reenact such a scene with Little Red Pupil, who had constantly provoked him.
To let Little Red Pupil and the Big Guy reunite, putting on a show of friendship first before ultimately knocking the Big Guy down himself,
Nigal deliberately slowed his pursuit.
But as the Big Guy drew closer and closer to Little Red Pupil, Nigal sensed a familiar aura emanating from the Big Guy, and the smile on his face gradually became more solemn. What was going on?
Why did this silver dragon have the aura of a World Tree Fruit?
Had the Elves of the World Tree actually agreed to let it take the fruit?
Or had this dragon stolen the fruit out of greed?
But soon, after his initial solemnity, Nigal’s expression relaxed somewhat. No, instead, a smile appeared on his face.
Over his years in Segus World, Nigal had learned some information regarding the World Tree Fruit.
Although the World Tree Fruit contained an enormous amount of life force, living creatures would instinctively covet it. However, because this life force was simply too vast, even ordinary creatures, including Dragons, could not completely digest it in an instant.
Take the Black Dragon that had once been a Holy Beast, for example. After reading its memories, Nigal knew that it had taken an entire year to completely digest the energy of a single World Tree Fruit.
And now, this dragon had plucked the World Tree Fruit from the World Tree, although he did not know what it intended to do with it.
But no matter how he looked at it, this would save him the trouble of fighting the World Tree later.
Just as Nigal was thinking,
“Little Qi, Big Sister is here!”
Riding the Big Guy and holding Su Xixi in her arms, Su Lulu had already flown to Little Red Pupil’s side.
As Su Qi’s older sister, Su Lulu had watched Little Red Pupil flee all the way from the World Tree just moments ago, and her heart had been in turmoil with worry.
But now that she was closer to Little Red Pupil, she finally realized that something… was not quite right!
She had seen Little Qi’s Dragon Rider Suit before.
She had also met all of Little Qi’s girlfriends, and was even quite familiar with them.
But why was the female knight suit worn by Little Qi, who was now standing atop Little Red Pupil’s head, looking somewhat tattered?
And why were Little Qi’s female friends beside her also dressed so scantily, with the distance between them being far too close, their intimacy almost excessive, and even somewhat… somewhat… indecent… no, it should be called… chaotic!
This… this wasn’t right!
While Su Lulu was stunned, Su Qi, whose eyes met Su Lulu’s, felt as though she had been struck by lightning.
Because the Big Guy and Little Red Pupil were so close together, the secret of her snuggling up with the beautiful girls had been discovered by her own sister.
‘How am I supposed to explain this now? Whimper… This is way too embarrassing!’
Just as the sisters Su Qi and Su Lulu were both frozen in shock because the current scene seemed to have lagged, neither knowing how to speak,
“Xixi~”
At that moment, Su Xixi, who was being held in Su Lulu’s arms and was clutching the World Tree Fruit, seemed particularly excited to see Su Qi.
The adorable little one immediately jumped excitedly out of Su Lulu’s arms and, taking advantage of the difference in height, jumped toward Su Qi.
Seeing Su Xixi descending, Su Qi instinctively stretched out both arms and made an embracing gesture.
As Su Xixi descended, the next second brought about a scene that shocked both Su Qi and everyone present. Su Xixi landed perfectly in Su Qi’s arms, and the World Tree Fruit in Su Xixi’s arms should logically have entered Su Qi’s embrace as well.
But after Su Qi caught Xixi, the World Tree Fruit, which was emitting a faint and feeble glow in Xixi’s arms, came into contact with Su Qi’s soft, pale belly and began slowly merging into her abdomen like milk.
Sigh~
Seeing this, a trace of confusion and bewilderment flashed through Su Qi’s beautiful eyes.
‘So, what kind of development is this? Did I just eat that World Tree Fruit?’
‘This isn’t right~!!’
