Man on the ark, forced to become king

"We'll ask the boss later to confirm whether our actions have any impact on his plans."

"Well, that's fine too."

Texas thought about it and agreed that it was the right thing to do. Lappland pursed her lips and didn't say anything.

A kilometer away in another direction, a girl in a white cloak was speeding towards them on ice and snow.

-------------------------------------

“Talulah…Talulah…”

Grayish-black ice crystals clung to her body, pushing Yelena so that she looked like an ice sled speeding across the ice.

The body was twitching slightly, a sign that the high-intensity use of Originium Arts had caused Oripathy to spread.

My neck is sore and painful; it was from Talulah's chop to the neck.

Yelena never expected that Talulah would suddenly attack her while she was on her way, so she was completely unprepared and was hit hard and knocked unconscious on the spot.

However, Talulah probably didn't expect that due to Oripathy, her body was already different from that of ordinary people. This body, eroded by the disease, had long since become as stiff as ice.

A powerful blow that could knock an ordinary person unconscious for ten minutes or even several hours only made her unconscious for a little over ten minutes before she regained consciousness.

In fact, she didn't know how long she had been unconscious; she could only judge from the sky that it probably hadn't been long.

Once she regained consciousness, she immediately pushed her Originium Arts to the limit and chased after the trail left by Talulah.

Yelena didn't know if it would work, but she felt she couldn't just leave like that.

That idiot!

The necrotic facial nerves prevented her from even shedding tears, so she could only speed up and speed up to get to the battlefield even faster.

But, it's still too late.

As far as the eye could see, there was only scorched earth.

The wreckage of the vehicle was stuck in the mud, the ground was charred black, and there was a lingering smell of burning and pungent blood.

The entire battlefield looked as if it had been burned by some kind of high temperature. Some places had dried and hardened, and traces of molten steel were imprinted on the soil, with the residual heat still lingering.

The severed limbs were covered in a mixture of blood.

The enemy's corpses were visible, but Talulah was nowhere to be seen.

Anyone who saw this scene would think that 'Talulah and the enemy perished together,' and Yelena was no exception.

Talulah is absolutely capable of doing that!

Choosing to stand alone against the Ursus regular army meant that she never intended to return alive from the start.

What a fool!

Yelena wanted to yell angrily, but she couldn't open her mouth.

She stepped into the still-warm battlefield, trying to find even the slightest trace of Talulah's existence.

But there was nothing.

Apart from the corpses on the edge of the battlefield, all that remained were drifting ashes.

Even though she was already aware of the cruelty of this world, Yelena still couldn't remain calm when sacrifices happened before her eyes time and time again.

My friend, who was laughing and chatting not long ago, has turned into an indistinguishable pile of ashes, leaving no trace.

It seems like she's always losing.

Infected, Yeti, Old Man...

One by one, familiar figures disappeared. She could never hold onto anything; she could only watch the sacrifices before her eyes, unable to do anything about it.

This world was full of malice to her.

“Tallulah…”

As she murmured the words, Yelena felt increasingly pained. She was afraid to go back and face Alina's reaction after learning the news.

"Damn Ursus..."

"Talulah, I will avenge you, I promise."

"Um, I think... there's still a chance I can be saved?"

Suddenly, a faint voice came from not far away. Yelena turned her head instantly and looked in the direction from which the voice came.

Behind the charred wreckage of the transport vehicle, a head covered in soot and dirt emerged, its hair barely showing any whiteness, and two dragon horns stained with a lot of black ash standing out conspicuously.

"Tallulah!"

Yelena blinked incredulously, almost wondering if she was dreaming.

Reason told her that with such a devastated battlefield, where even the Ursus army had been destroyed, Talulah's chances of survival were extremely slim.

But the facts were undeniable, leaving her no choice but to believe them.

"There was a slight mishap, but the outcome was good. In short, I'm still alive."

Talulah emerged from behind the wreckage, leaning on her saber, and gave an apologetic smile.

After all, she had knocked him unconscious not long ago, so it was somewhat awkward to meet him now.

"Great, great."

Overwhelmed with indescribable joy, Yelena rushed over, and Talulah smiled and walked towards her.

then……

Snapped!

With a sharp crack, a clear handprint appeared on the dusty girl's face, making her head turn to the side.

"Yelena, I..."

Talulah's head was spinning from the blow. The sudden slap interrupted her thoughts, and then a cold hand grabbed her collar, pulling her forward.

"You think you're brave? You think you're great? Huh?!"

This was the first time Talulah had ever seen Yelena so excited, leaving her somewhat flustered and being pulled around like a rag doll, unsure of what to say.

There will be no next time, Talulah!

Chapter 119 Chen: I think I can learn magic now.

"The night view of Kjerag is quite nice."

A fiery glow appeared behind the distant mountains; in Shelag, surrounded by mountains, dawn always comes later than on the plains.

She found a secluded valley deep in the snowy mountains overnight and planted the seeds of the Golden Tree. She also made some arrangements in the valley that Silver Grey had designated for the Golden Tree. Lin Lu returned to Shivaesh's villa in the morning light.

The appearance of the Flame God brought a sense of urgency, so he did not intend to stay in Sherag for long.

There's no need for that.

Lin Lu wanted this place because she needed the forbidden snow-capped mountains around Shelag, which were inaccessible to ordinary people, to hide the seeds of the Golden Tree. Apart from that, Shelag had almost no other use.

There are no precious minerals or resources here, nor are there a large number of highly qualified personnel to supplement the regular combat force of the Golden Tree. It is no exaggeration to call it a remote and impoverished place.

Even if SilverAsh intends to change the status quo, it won't be something that can be achieved in a short time.

For a long time to come, Sherag will not be of much value to the Golden Tree.

Therefore, staying here any longer is a waste of time.

Lin Lu didn't pay much attention to this small base either. She simply set it up and established a teleportation node so that people could travel freely. She didn't do anything else.

When time permits, we can select one person to be a permanent staff member, or choose one from the local area of ​​Shelag to be responsible for liaison with the main body of the Golden Tree.

Next, he plans to return to Lungmen and then have Kosichear pull some strings to check out Sunset Canyon on the northern border of Ursus and see if the dead snake is actually there.

I wonder if there's any news from the old Celestial Master on the border of Yan Kingdom.

Unlike other places, Yan Kingdom has great strength and resources, which can greatly help the Golden Tree. Any problems should be addressed first.

Thinking about her future plans, Lin Lu pushed open the courtyard gate and saw Chen practicing swordsmanship in the courtyard.

It was still early morning, but it looked like she had been practicing for a while, as waves of heat were rising from her body.

After receiving news from Talulah, Chen was in a daze for a while. Although he didn't say it, he worked even harder than usual.

While in Ursus, where there was no environment in the hotel to practice swordsmanship, she practiced using prayer and learned new prayers.

With enough space available, sword practice was put on the agenda.

However, there is still a considerable gap between her and Talulah.

"teacher!"

Upon seeing Lin Lu enter, Chen's eyes lit up, and he quickly stopped what he was doing and greeted her.

"Hmm, you got up to practice swordsmanship before dawn?"

"kindness."

Mentioning this matter, Chen's face darkened, and his hand unconsciously tightened around the hilt of his sword.

"You said Talulah is very strong now, right? I don't want to fall too far behind her."
