c2173: 2174: A Severed Hand (2)

Angel held Dangross’s wrist, and its fingers desperately tried to break free but couldn’t manage it at all.

"You are Dangross? Why is there only a hand?"

Angel had never before seen an elemental creature in this shape, and he suspected that this hand might be part of a complete true body?

"Let me go, let me go! Damn spy!" Dangross’s fingers kept moving but to no avail.

Angel curiously turned the severed hand over to the palm side and found there was actually an eye and a mouth in the palm.

The mouth of Dangross was babbling fast, all cursing Angel, but unfortunately, its voice sounded very childish, and the curses were very childish, hardly even qualifying as swear words.

"Where are your brothers and sisters?" Angel asked, shaking Dangross.

Dazed from the shaking, Dangross instinctively responded, "What brothers and sisters?"

Angel: "The other limbs, right hand, left foot, right foot, head and such."

"What is that?"

Angel squinted his eyes, "You don’t have any siblings? You were born just as a... hand?"

Dangross: "The unique me, how could I possibly have siblings! Ahhh, let me go, stop shaking, stop shaking!"

"Didn’t you say you’re a descendant of Kalomchis?"

"The great Kalomchis!" Dangross said angrily, "I was born from the ashes of my ancestor, of course I’m its descendant!"

Hearing this, Angel roughly confirmed in his mind that Dangross’s true form might really just be a severed hand without any other parts.

As Angel was observing Dangross, a swirl of snowflakes suddenly drifted over around him.

Within the snowflakes, the shape of Earl Mi slowly emerged.

Angel glanced at Earl Mi’s abdomen and back, where there was still a singed smell, precisely the area injured before.

"How are your injuries?"

With a wave of the Blue Lantern Flower, Earl Mi indicated to Angel that he was fine.

Angel reached out and touched Earl Mi, letting his spiritual power swirl inside Earl Mi’s body. Indeed, as Earl Mi had said, he wasn’t seriously injured.

At most, his energy was somewhat depleted and needed some time to gradually recover.

With another gentle shake of the Blue Lantern Flower, Earl Mi conveyed new thoughts to Angel, inquiring whether to remove the Frost Domain.

The Frost Domain was constructed by Earl Mi’s talent, and if in an area rich with snow and ice power, it could basically sustain itself without depletion. But now, in the Region of Fire, it couldn’t absorb power from the outside to replenish, and had to consume Earl Mi’s own energy.

After freezing the Magma Whale and the Flaming Phoenix, Earl Mi’s energy had been nearly depleted, and the Frost Domain couldn’t be maintained for much longer, which was why he sought Angel’s opinion.

Angel looked at the crouched fiery giant in front of him, and then at the two enormous creatures lying in the snowy ground in the distance.

According to Dangross, these were the top combat powers of the Region of Fire.

Now, they were all defeated by Earl Mi, their elemental cores frozen, essentially unable to resolve peacefully.

He had initially intended to explore the Region of Fire in a mild manner, but now, it seemed that he had no choice but to take the route of forceful suppression.

Boom——

Across the Lava Lake, a loud noise erupted at this moment.

Angel didn’t need to think deeply to know that the defeat of Gulada and Phoenix had been communicated, and now must be the core region of the Region of Fire continuing its mobilization.

It might even be the arrival of the New King.

"How strong is the Fire Demon Midir?" Angel thought for a moment and turned to look at Dangross.

Dangross, who had been struggling to flee, began struggling to fight Earl Mi when he appeared around Angel, seemingly wanting to avenge Gulada and Phoenix.

However, Angel held its fate’s wrist tight, rendering its struggles useless.

"Let me go, I want to kill you, damn spies! I want to burn you all to ashes!"

Angel: "I’ll let you go later. But first, you must answer me, how strong is the Fire Demon Midir?"

Dangross roared in fury, "Even though I despise this New King, I won’t tell you, but it’s many times stronger than Phoenix!"

Angel stroked his chin, "Much stronger than Phoenix... seems like, even if it’s a forceful route, it still needs to be avoided."

After all, Earl Mi’s energy is greatly depleted now.

Angel weighed his options and turned to Earl Mi, "Withdraw the Frost Domain, let’s leave first."

Dangross: "You won’t escape! The New King will burn you all to death!"

Angel ignored its shouting, gripping its wrist, and prepared to retreat.

"Aren’t you going to escape? Let go of me! Let go of me!"

Angel had no intention of letting Dangross escape, having encountered a speaking, albeit slightly faulty, elemental sprite, persuading it might reveal a lot of intelligence about this place.

Realizing Angel’s intent to take it captive, Dangross was afraid, its boasting diminished, and it continued listing its insignificance, immaturity, and foolishness, subtly pleading with Angel for mercy.

Hearing this, Angel remained silent, only thinking inwardly: If you weren’t foolish, I wouldn’t catch you.

In a panicked attempt, Dangross erupted flames from within its body, trying to escape with a surprise attack.

Remarkably, the flame’s temperature was beyond Angel’s expectations, higher than the previously encountered fiery giant’s.

Using his left hand, Angel was indeed scalded, unconsciously loosening his grip.

Dangross was elated and immediately tried to flee, but before it could, it was caught by a semi-transparent blue Hand of Magic.

Caught in the grip of fate again, Dangross couldn’t help but feel sadness.

Capture by the spy of Frost Isel would mean never returning to the warm magma pool, possibly forever confined to a sunless Ice Prison, extinguishing its last flicker of flame in the gloom.

It didn’t want such an ending!

It still yearned to restore the glory of its ancestors!

As Dangross despaired, a "buzzing—" sound suddenly echoed throughout the world.

This sound wasn’t heard by the ears but directly resounded in every creature’s consciousness, a kind of continuous vibrating frequency with a strange wave from the sky.

At the moment of this strange wave’s arrival, the entire world seemed to freeze.

Earl Mi had been walking through the melting snow, but now paused, like a frozen statue.

Angel, about to take out The Gate of Void, was also affected by this wave, discovering that while he could still move, the elemental energy around him suddenly thickened, and even the air felt like it had turned to mire.

"What’s happening?!"

Angel’s heart skipped a beat, fearing an ambush. He scanned around as thoroughly as he could, noticing not only him but the entire Region of Fire enveloped by this strange wave.

Even the fire element creatures he trapped in the Illusionary Realm were like museum specimens, unable to move.

However, sounds and some magic power weren’t restricted.

As Angel pondered what was happening, Dangross, held by the Hand of Magic, suddenly laughed aloud, "Hahaha! This is... the World’s Harmony!"

"The World’s Harmony?" Angel looked at Dangross in confusion.

Dangross’s eyes gleamed with schadenfreude, "Even the World Will is helping me, standing on our side, you can’t escape!"
