Chapter 3534 Unicorn Rescue Team
Behind that holy white light, the rumbling sound grew clearer. Then, under little Leanna's surprised gaze—
Ang~
Hundreds of massive unicorns burst through the holes in the walls and stormed into the core room. These unicorns were far larger than Leona and Ellie could ever imagine.
On the back of the lead unicorn, Emilia held up her staff and cast a spell to speed everyone up, while the unicorns behind carried Sylvia and Audrey, who were casting spells to break through space, as well as Daniste, who was wearing the [Stone Hat] and protecting everyone with the red moon.
"We've found little Leona! The bad guys are here—charge!"
Emilia pointed her staff forward, and the unicorns that were standing in the air charged onto the Blood Lake like a charging cavalry, heading straight for the fake humans in the air.
The pure white light from hundreds of unicorns condensed into a single force, and the power of resonance not only protected them, but the power that erupted in that instant was even more troublesome for the pseudo-humans than when they had dealt with Sister Shad and Sister Daphne.
He raised his hand, causing the blood in the lake to solidify into several massive, layered shields. However, these crimson shields were instantly shattered by the charge of the unicorn horde—almost equivalent to the combined breath of hundreds of pure-blooded dragons. The lake was stained white by the silhouettes of the unicorns, and without hesitation, the pseudo-human took a step back in mid-air.
The phantom of the bloody city that had just vanished reappeared, and this time it entered it willingly.
The "Unicorn Legion" missed their target. Pure white light pierced through the illusion of the fleshy city, and Emilia had no choice but to have the unicorns turn around and reunite with Winnie and Leona.
So the great unicorns surrounded the glittering little Leona, calling out and showing concern for her, but they stopped after Emilia scolded them.
Audrey frowned and asked Winnie:
"Where is Shad? And what about the other unicorn? Why are there only you two?"
"it's here."
Winnie pointed to the vortex of blood beneath her feet. Daniste and the witches had initially thought it was a trick by a fake human, but now they saw Shad slowly rising from the center of the vortex. Although he was still wearing pants on his lower body, his upper body clothes had almost completely dissolved.
Blood flowed across his body, but it drained away quickly like ordinary water, without staining his skin red. His hands held up a huge block of ice, within which was frozen Ellie, whose fur had been dyed crimson.
Everyone immediately flew towards Shad, but Daniste stopped the excited Emilia:
"Wait a minute, let's make sure this is the real Shad."
"Oh yes, thank goodness Luvia let me prepare."
Emilia carried the "Gift Box of God" on her back—she was the only one in the group who could lift it. She held the box in front of her, opened the lid, and immediately Mia poked her cat head out.
It looked around, and its expression immediately darkened when it saw the armor on little Leanna, but then it noticed the somewhat disheveled Shad:
"Meow~"
The cat immediately tried to jump out of the box, but Emilia stopped it:
"Wait a minute, Mia, you can't just show up here. It's dangerous here. You have to stay in the box."
She approached Shad with the box in her hands, and only felt relieved when she saw Shad reach out and touch the cat inside the box, while Mia squinted her eyes and looked on with obvious enjoyment.
But she immediately became worried again:
"Shad, are you alright? How did you get out of the blood lake? What happened to Ellie?"
"I'm fine. The pseudo-human's blood doesn't seem to have any effect on me. Actually, I should have realized that; this thing's blood is nowhere near as good as a mermaid's."
Shad did not explain in detail that after he discovered the blood splattered on him, he could actually absorb its power, and that after jumping into the blood lake, he did indeed absorb a significant amount of its power.
"Ellie fell into the lake to help me, and when I went to find her, she was already like this. I think it was her instinct to protect herself, so she chose to freeze herself in ice."
Winnie began by saying:
"Its nature is similar to the ice that froze Ellie from the Fifth Age to the Sixth Age, which is similar to the power of Her Majesty Chloe to freeze time. It seems that the time Ellie spent sleeping in the ice did not without giving it power."
But now Ellie's fur is blood red, which means that after it was swallowed by that blood-red giant mouth, it came into contact with blood and then froze itself as a form of self-protection.
Although the little unicorn appears to be in good condition, Shad has no idea how it actually is because of the layer of ice.
“Sylvia, protect it for now.”
Shad handed the ice he was holding to Sylvia, who was riding on a unicorn. The combined power of the witches and so many unicorns allowed them to stay here for a while, which was better than Shad had originally expected.
Sylvia then took the huge block of ice. The unicorns noticed Ellie sleeping inside. Although they didn't recognize this young member of their kind, they all stretched out their horns to touch her, but Emilia chased them away.
"Shad, are you really alright?"
Audrey asked, still very worried, and Shad shook his head:
"It's really nothing. I've been exposed to much more disgusting things, but this is just the nest of the fakes. It's okay."
His strange ability to "absorb substances beneficial to himself and strengthen himself" was still in effect. Although his skin was slightly red, it was more like a phenomenon caused by the accelerated circulation of blood after strenuous exercise.
In summary, the power of this blood is not as great as the flesh and blood that "Desire" gave to Shad, much less the flesh and blood of the "Nameless Dragon" in Moon Bay, which contained divinity. Devouring the blood from the birthplace of the false people gave him new power, and because of the nature of the blood, this enhancement was almost entirely applied to his body.
Xia De wasn't concerned about the specific improvements in his physical abilities; what mattered more was the new characteristics she had given him:
[Outsider, you've come into contact with "whispers."]
His life ring briefly appeared within the blood lake, and it was at that moment that the pseudo-human sensed the power of the blood lake being absorbed. The rapidly spinning life ring ultimately did not bring Shad any new spirit runes. In fact, Shad felt that even without [Flesh and Blood], spirit runes like [Mimicry] and [Crimson] would be quite good, but in the end, he gained not only a magical technique but also a certain talent:
[Stranger, you have acquired a wondrous technique - Blood Seed Parasitism: This allows you to implant your own flesh and blood into the bodies of other flesh-and-blood beings, granting you the ability to sense their superficial thoughts and exert a degree of control over them. Corresponding rune: [Flesh and Blood].]
[Outsider, you have gained the talent to perceive imposters from a distance.]
This strange technique is clearly the ability of pseudo-humans, and it looks just as sinister as Shad's [Blood Wine Brewing], a kind of strange technique that Shad may know, but would never use properly. As for the talent, it's Shad's perception of flesh and blood of the same origin after absorbing the blood of pseudo-humans, which is easy to understand.
Of course, another benefit of absorbing such a massive amount of power is that a huge amount of whispering elements flowed into the Life Ring, and then the elements were transformed into enough spirit to support Shad to use a complete Lock of the Maze once.
"Where is that fake man?"
Shad asked again, and Winnie explained what had happened in the past half minute: the fake man had been forced into the flesh and blood city by the charge of the unicorn horde.
"It doesn't matter that it's hiding, the door is still there, isn't it?"
Shad, shirtless, looked towards the flesh gate across the blood lake, only to find it blocked by the phantom of the flesh city. While the unicorn herd had been able to pass through the illusion earlier, Shad flew over to try, only to find the illusion had solidified into a barrier, preventing anyone from approaching the other side of the blood lake.
"It seems that we need to enter this flesh-and-blood city and break through this maze head-on before we can get close to that door."
Daniste spoke, Shad nodded, and Emilia immediately raised her hand:
"Let's get the unicorns to help; they're experts at traversing space."
The unicorns then cried out in unison, responding to Emilia's call.
Shad took a deep breath to compose himself, then reached out to Danist, the only thirteenth-ring warlock present. The "Red Moon Witch" took Shad's hand with some surprise, then heard him ask:
"Do you remember the 'Clock Tower Lovers' maze that I used with you, Britney, and Ms. Carter during the Battle of Vista Grove?"
Daniste blinked, then suddenly smiled:
"of course I remember."
She nodded slightly. Sylvia and Audrey were somewhat envious, but they were not thirteenth-order witches after all. Not only was their power insufficient, but their souls were also not strong enough to merge with Shad's.
Shad looked again at the blood-soaked city:
"I want to prove to those false people that the power to grow flesh and blood does not belong solely to that ancient god who created them!"
"Meow!"
Meanwhile, on the north side of the street outside the [House of the False Humans], the great witches were casting a spell, using the power of mental suggestion to prevent anyone from approaching. Therefore, the street was deserted. The local church's attention was focused on the beach, and most of the [House of the False Humans]'s forces were currently mobilized internally to confront Shad, so the witches didn't need the church's help.
Although there were no pedestrians, it was not quiet here. Galina, Claire, and Sylvie were leading the witch followers to besiege the building itself, the "House of the Pseudo-Humans." The pseudo-humans who rushed out from the gap created by the unicorns were still being pushed back by the great witches, even though they were enhanced by the bloody light of the flesh and blood city above them.
The building's exterior walls are now severely damaged. If the witches weren't worried that directly expelling the "House of the Pseudo-Humans" would cause Shad and the others to disappear, they could have demolished the house long ago.
