The dark giant didn't seem to notice Rhodes and the others at all, it just wandered aimlessly on the ground, letting out a loud roar from time to time. The whistling stones swirled like a torrential rain in the wind, and it is conceivable that if someone were swept up unprepared, the end result would be a dead end. Provided, of course, that that's the case with ordinary humans——— well, ordinary people.

What a powerful force.

Rhodes frowned, he could feel that the power possessed by this strange dark shadow giant in front of him was very large and chaotic, and there was a bit of darkness and coldness in his breath, this overwhelming sense of oppression could only be possessed by an existence like a demon lord, but the sense of coercion of this dark shadow in front of him was much stronger than that of a demon lord.

But to Rhode's surprise, he obviously has a strong strength, but the IQ of the monster in front of him seems to be very problematic, through his senses, Rod can sense that this monster is destroying everything unscrupulously, and any obstacle on the plain will be smashed by the other party in an instant. But unfortunately, compared to their destructive power, this monster's IQ seems to be quite low, although Rhodes and the others are not far from it, and Rhodes also feels the other party's gaze sweeping over him more than once. But it had no intention of attacking Rhodes at all. Or rather, it seems to have no idea what the things that are hiding not far from its own are.

However, the primitive man was obviously not lightly frightened, and since the appearance of this monster, he has been crawling on the ground with five bodies on the ground, looking like he was waiting to die with his eyes closed and waiting to be shot. And Rod and Maribel and the others were staring at the top with all their attention at the moment, and at the same time vigilantly watching the monster above. In fact, from the vast, mottled elemental power that mingled with the shadow giant's breath, Rhodes could have almost guessed what it was.

Fallen Elemental Lord.

They once formed part of this worldly realm. But after the creation dragon abandoned this gap land, they also lost their purpose of existence. These Elemental Lords could not abandon this world like the others, they could only stay here and continue to coexist with this world that seemed to be ruined. Eventually, they lost their will and turned into raging beasts.

But. Perhaps because of the fact that the bottom line of order is still maintained in this gap, these elemental lords have not completely gone crazy and collapsed, and they can still maintain a certain degree of sanity during the day, but at night, their crazy and tyrannical side will manifest. At that time, they will roam the land like lonely ghosts, destroying everything they see.

Of course, with the combat power of Rhodes and the others, it was not a strange thing to deal with such a lonely ghost-like elemental lord. But the problem is that the other party is an elemental lord, if it is destroyed, it will represent the complete collapse of the elemental realm——— Rhodes doesn't want to destroy a world or something by fighting on the street, this is too funny. Moreover, Maribel also warned Rhodes not to use too much force unless necessary in this fragile world, otherwise it is likely to attract unwanted attention, which is not a good thing for Rhodes.

"Let's get out of here quickly."

Glancing at the massive Dark Giant again, Rhodes lowered his voice and said to Maribel. And to hear Rod's words. Marybell nodded. Then she picked up her wand and waved it gently, very quickly. With Maribel's movements, the soil above everyone's heads quickly closed and reunited.

But darkness did not fall.

"What a strange place.........

Looking at everything in front of him, Rod couldn't help but speak. I hadn't noticed it just now, but after calming down, Rod saw it. I was now in a huge underground pit, and when I looked around, I could see that there were holes as wide as football fields everywhere. Because of this, Maribel was able to sink the camp to the ground with ease. Otherwise, if it is buried deep in the soil, it will not be long before the more than 100 people of their own group will be completely finished.

Look at it at the moment. A lot of crystals with a faint glow could be seen unfolding along the walls in disorder, and Rhodes was not surprised by these strange crystals. After all, most of the magic crystals on the Dragon Soul Continent are like this, but the canary is very wary of this——— after all, according to the common sense on the earth, most of the things that will actively emit light have something to do with radiation...............

Although it seems that there is no way to distinguish between east and west, north and south in the Underground World, I don't know where to go. Luckily, though, Rhodes at least had a local guide on hand.

“……… Yes............ Ahhh............h ”

After making sure that he was away from the terrible and strange black giant, the primitive man who came to report to Rhodes and the others volunteered to be their guide. It seems that he is very familiar with the environment here——— or rather, these people live underground at all.

Rhodes finally understood a little bit about what he had done before, and he and the others had walked on the ground for so long without even seeing any trace of civilization, and there was such a thing that wandered around the land every night, even if it was a waste of time to build any houses, in comparison, it would be safer to live in the underground world.

And about that primitive man, Rhodes also learned something from Maribel. Obviously, the other party was indeed a member of the race that was abandoned by the Creation Dragon, or chose to stay here instead of going to the "Beautiful New World Realm", but with the departure of the Creation Dragon, the framework that maintained the Gap World Realm began to collapse, and the power of the elements was also out of balance, causing these aborigines to have to leave the ground and hide deep underground to live. Of course, due to the imbalance of the elements and the depletion of the earth, the inhabitants of this place have lost their original abilities for various reasons, and their offspring have not been able to obtain sufficient strength, so that they have become deformed after birth, and even have symptoms accompanied by low IQ, which is not evolution, but complete degradation. And after so many years, to the present, although the aborigines here still retain some civilization more or less. But that's only the level of primitive society, and maybe in a few hundred years, they will disappear completely.

And the reason why the primitive man followed Rhodes is also very simple, because Rhodes helped them fend off and defeat their enemies (although from Rhodes' point of view, it is completely incidental), so he wants to repay the favor——— and that is as simple as that.

Should it be said that these primitive people are simple? Or is it simple?

Looking at the monkey-like figure walking in front, Rod shrugged his shoulders. After learning their destination. This primitive man volunteered to be their guide to Rod and the others, leading them to that place. But at the same time, he also danced and told Rhodes and the others that it was not safe, in addition to the fact that there were many terrible monsters, the rampaging elemental lords that Rhodes had seen before also lived there——— so it could be said that it was a rather dangerous place.

But for Rod, there was no other way but to move on.

But he's not alone.

At this moment, on the Dragon Soul Continent. In the place where Rod does not know what to do, there is also a group of people who are working hard for their goals.

"Your Majesty, it's time for you to rest."

Putting down the documents in her hand and looking at the girl sitting at the desk, almost all of whom were already flooded with papers, Sonia couldn't help but speak. Hearing Sonya's words, Lillian looked up and smiled at her.

"It's good. I get it, Sonia. ”

If Rhodes sees Sonia now. Then he must have been surprised. Because at this moment, Sonia has completely lost the feeling of resignation and weakness before. On the contrary, there was a calm smile on her immature little face, and there was an unprecedented determination in her bright golden eyes.

With the complete destruction of the Council of Light and Casablanca, Lillian regained the position and power she was entitled to as a dragon of light. With Rhodes behind him, the scattered forces of the Land of Light didn't dare to stand up against Lillian at all, especially after Rhodes completely blasted Casablanca to slag, those who were still trying to learn from the Council of Light to continue to manipulate Lillian as a puppet in their hearts immediately broke off their original thoughts, obviously. Maybe Lillian wasn't dangerous in her own right, but the Void Dragon behind her was definitely something she couldn't mess with.

It is precisely because of this deterrence that Lilian's action to reinstate the power of the Kingdom of Light is very smooth, and now she is a veritable ruler of the Land of Light. Originally, Lillian didn't have to deal with too many affairs, these things should have been handled by the three archangels, but now, because an archangel was defeated and died after the rebellion, Slynn was seriously injured and needed to recuperate, and Lydia ran away with Rhodes until she disappeared, so everything needed Lillian's own help. Of course, having Sonia by her side to assist is also a big help for Lilian.

Walking out of the room, looking at the clear sky and floating white clouds in front of her, Lillian couldn't help but smile with joy, although she had realized when she decided to take on the responsibility of becoming a dragon of light, she was still a little girl after all, and she couldn't like to lie at her desk all day to face all those complicated, headache-inducing, and nerve-wracking problems. The waking air was mixed with the scent of earth and flowers, and Lillian smiled happily as she looked at the endless sky in front of her. Soon, though, she sighed softly, and then turned her head to look at the white palace not far away.

"Really......... When will Brother Rhodes be able to come back..............."

"I don't know what to do, Your Majesty, but ......... It shouldn't be too long. ”

Hearing Lilian's complaints, Sonia also sighed slightly. It's been a long time since Rod left, and of course Lilian is a little dissatisfied with this, but she also knows that she is not qualified to intervene in Rhodes's affairs. But even so, Lillian still wants to be able to spend more time with Rod. After all, she only has so many good friends here, and besides Rod, only Sonya, Lydia and Christie are her close friends. But Lydia is also leaving with Rod, and Christie also has something to do......... During this time, Lilian also felt a little lonely.

Of course, although she became the official ruler of the Land of Light, Lillian had no intention of moving back to the Land of Light, after the destruction of Casablanca. Although it was not without the city trying to invite Lilian to station, they were all sent back directly and completely by Rhodes. And Lillian herself is not a fool, and of course she can sense the greedy desires that lurk in the hearts of those people, and it is clear that these people did not invite Lillian to their city for the sake of the Radiant Dragon. Although what they say in their mouths is very good. But what these guys really expect from the bottom of their hearts, Lilian is also very clear. Because of this, she would rather stay in Grandia than return to the Land of Light...... It was only here that she could get the peace, tranquility and serenity that she had not been able to get before, and for this, even if she had to deal with so many complicated affairs, Lillian accepted it.

And while Lillian and Sonia were strolling through the garden. Suddenly, a soft voice sounded.

"Ah............ Lillian ............"

"Christie?"

Hearing this, Lillian immediately looked up with a smile of surprise and joy, and looked at the place where the voice had come from, and soon she saw Christie sitting there in the depths of the garden, still wearing the same long dress as usual, holding a paintbrush in her hand, drawing something on the canvas in front of her. It's also the entertainment that Christie is bound to do every day. And seeing Lilian, Christie also showed a very happy smile. Then she reached out and waved at Lillian. Lillian was also smiling, and trotted all the way to Christie's side, and the two girls held each other's hands tightly. After all, in Grandia, as Lilian and Christie, the only children who want to find them to play with are each other. So the relationship between these two girls is very good——— of course, although Angeline looks similar to them on the outside, but on the inside......... Internally, that's another story.

However, Christie's job is not simple, because Marlene and others have to face the Night Country on the front line, so she needs to stay in Grantia as an ace. And now. With the temporary end of the war on the front line and the return of Marlene, Christie was finally able to let go of her original burden and come out to breathe.

The two people who have not seen each other for a long time and have similar experiences are naturally very happy to meet at this moment, and the two people are holding each other's hands tightly, talking about their lives while asking each other about the situation in recent days. Sonya, on the other hand, smiled and watched the harmonious and warm scene in front of them, for them, the dark and heavy past was over, and in its place was a bright and beautiful future...............

And at this time...............

"Whew!"

Suddenly, Sonia heard several strange sounds in her ears, which made the girl suddenly raise her vigilance, she looked around, and then, Sonya's face changed slightly.

"Miss Christie, Your Majesty Lilian!"

While shouting the names of the two girls, Sonia came to the two girls' side, and at the same time, suddenly, the warm and peaceful atmosphere around them quickly disappeared, and was replaced by a strange and cold cold. And the two girls, who were talking and laughing, seemed to sense that something was wrong at this moment, and they were close to each other back to back, looking around them vigilantly. The garden, which was originally full of life and vitality, looked like a cave with strange monsters hidden at this moment, and even the shadows began to shake incessantly. And the next moment, suddenly, two strange figures sprang out of the grass and rushed towards Lilian and Christie.

"Be careful!!"

Seeing this scene in front of her, Sonia also screamed softly. But she didn't stand there stupidly, after being resurrected by Rhodes and becoming a contract elf, it was not the first time that Sonia faced a battle, and now she already has a completely different strength than before.

With the sound of Sonya's call, I saw the girl stretch out her hand like this, and with her movements, the garden surrounding the three of them suddenly began to expand rapidly and infinitely. And the two weird shadows are the same, it only takes a few seconds to reach the prey's side, but with Sonya's movements, the distance between them and Lilian and Christie is also instantly extended infinitely, just in the blink of an eye, the distance between the two sides is immediately stretched by more than 100 meters!

And Christie and Lilian did not stand there in a daze, on the contrary, after seeing the attacker in front of her clearly, Christie's eyes suddenly flashed a purple light, and then the original innocent expression on her face suddenly converged, replaced by solemnity and seriousness, and then the girl stretched out her hand, and the blank scroll and the quill shining with golden light appeared in her hand, and the next moment, Christie held the quill like this and pressed it heavily on the scroll in front of her.

“——————！！”

In just an instant, the figure rushing towards Christie suddenly distorted and deformed, and then it turned into a wisp of black green smoke, and disappeared in an instant.

On the other side, Lilian also hurriedly stretched out her hands, and soon, a golden, dazzling light burst out from her hand, and completely enveloped the enemy in front of her like a tide, only to see the shining light appear in front of her, and then the black figure was completely swallowed——— but no one noticed it, at the same time, a strange black shadow flashed.

In the blink of an eye, the attacker who suddenly appeared was completely eliminated. And it was only at this time that Sonia lowered her hands——— and with her movements, the originally twisted and stretched illusion also returned to its original form.

"Intruders? Isn't that weird......... Two adults, you're not hurt, are you? ”

Looking around, Sonia frowned and muttered to herself. She naturally knew very well how strong Grantia's protection was, and now, although she didn't know what the origin of the other party was, she was able to come here through the protection and even attack them?

"I'm fine."

Christie frowned, silent for a moment as if she was thinking about something, and then answered. On the other side, Lilian also breathed a sigh of relief, and then nodded.

"Well, Lillian too............... Woo............!! ”

Before the words fell, an extremely uncomfortable expression suddenly appeared on Lilian's face, and the next moment, I saw the girl close her eyes without saying a word and fall to the ground. (To be continued......)
