Chapter 131 Heavenly Horse Blessing

The moment Alice leaned towards him, a spiritual realization flooded Rhodes' mind with a wealth of information.

[A halo has gathered, having received the "Blessing of Pegasus"]

[Pegasus's Blessing: Enhanced by Eldinos, one of the three guardians, the "King of Pure White," it can utilize the power of faith offered by Pegasus City and surrounding towns for a thousand years.]

[Learned advanced skills: Pegasus Avatar (Tier 3, Advanced), Celestial Scale Armor (Tier 3, Advanced), Sword Qi Ice River (Tier 3, Advanced)]

[During the blessing period, you will be continuously afflicted by the curse—"The Resentment of the White Frost King"]

The curse has been triggered, but has been saved.

A massive amount of information was scrolled through in a short instant.

When Rhodes opened his eyes again, the power of blessing was gathering in his hands.

Unlike the ordinary enhancements of other soldiers in Pegasus City.

With Alice's complete trust and after being exempted from the curse of the White Frost King, Rhodes could clearly feel the terror of the power in his hands.

Tier 3 Advanced – this is genuine, city-wide power.

Just like the white frost dragon before him, Rhodes raised his head and looked at the enemy high in the sky who was gathering his breath.

Judging from the destructive energy emanating from it, the dragon's breath could not raze Pegasus City to the ground.

However, its coverage is extremely wide, enough to kill all living things within a 30-square-kilometer area.

The Duanlong Fortress, which supports a population of 500,000, has a total area of ​​only 35 square kilometers.

Tianma City, with its smaller area, was essentially wiped out if it were hit head-on by this breath attack.

Previously, no one in the city could stop them, but now things are different.

A celestial unicorn with pure white wings materialized behind Rhodes.

Its size continued to expand, eventually becoming no less than the hundred-meter-tall statue beside it.

As the Pegasus transformed, it raised its front hooves and spread its wings, attracting a massive influx of spiritual energy.

"What is that?"

Amidst countless gasps of surprise, the soldiers and residents of Tianma City stared in disbelief.

The sudden appearance of the illusory avatar shattered the oppressive and fearful atmosphere in the city.

Gazing at the familiar guardian avatar, countless people couldn't help but kneel down, silently praying in their hearts.

The power of the blessing is growing stronger, and Rhodes can feel it.

He took a deep breath and raised the ice crystal longsword he had taken from Alice.

The three skills obtained from the blessing are Pegasus Incarnation, which is responsible for gathering power, and Heavenly Scale Armor, which is responsible for building defense.

Sword Qi Ice River is a third-tier upgraded version of Frost-Clad Blade, pursuing the ultimate freezing aura damage.

With the prerequisites in place, this is the one that Rhodes finds easiest to use.

As Rhodes swung his sword, millions of icy white sword energies gathered behind Pegasus.

They intertwine and merge, eventually transforming into a dazzling glacier stretching for a kilometer.

The white frost dragon surged towards the sky.

The white frost dragon, which was gathering its breath, suddenly widened its eyes.

Unlike its previous minor skirmishes, this time all its scales stood up.

The deadly threat caused its anger to surge rapidly.

To block the sword energy, it opened its ferocious dragon mouth wide and prematurely exhaled the breath that had not yet formed in its mouth.

The breath transformed into a rapidly spinning tornado of ice storm, colliding with the glacier formed by the sword energy high in the sky.

The spreading aftershocks, like the scythe of death, mercilessly reaped the white frost wyverns surrounding the dragon.

Rhodes raised his palm, using the Heavenly Scale Armor to form a large protective layer above his head, shielding the city from the relentless aftershocks of the battle.

Two high-energy shocks clashed and fought each other.

However, the attrition between the two sides did not last long.

In less than half a minute, the sword energy, imbued with the power of blessing, tore through the air and mercilessly washed over the entire body of the White Frost Dragon.

Golden dragon blood poured down from the sky like a torrential downpour.

However, before it even touched the ground, it was all absorbed by the Pegasus incarnation to maintain the energy required for the blessing.

"roar!"

The earth-shattering dragon roar came again, but this time the arrogance within it turned into terror and pain.

The white frost dragon had most of its shoulder torn apart by sword energy.

The fear of brushing past death made it frantically flap its wings, constantly widening the distance between itself and Pegasus City.

It started to run away!

Even as it soared into the sky, it never forgot to stare intently at Rhodes with its hateful dragon eyes, as if trying to etch his face into its heart.

Under the other's gaze, Rhodes once again made a sword-wielding motion.

Fear gripped the dragon, causing its scales to stand on end once more. It then vanished into the sky without looking back.

Seeing this, Rod chuckled and helplessly released his grip.

The ice crystal longsword and the celestial horse avatar vanished.

Using third-tier power places too much burden on his spirit. Even without the curse of the White Frost King, using Sword Qi Ice River once had already exhausted his mental energy.

Fortunately, the effect was powerful enough to take away half of the White Frost Dragon's life, and it turned around and ran away without daring to test the waters.

After defeating the biggest enemy, Rhodes looked around the rest of the city.

The white frost pterosaurs that had attacked the city had already followed in the dragon's footsteps and fled the area.

Only a few crazed dragon servants remained, constantly dying in pursuit by the Imperial Guards and the garrison.

The enemy launched a large-scale attack, but fortunately, it was successfully thwarted without serious harm.

Just as Rhodes was reveling in the power he had previously mastered, carefully experiencing that world-destroying force...

His cheek was suddenly grabbed by a small hand.

As if that wasn't enough, her fair, white index finger and thumb pinched his cheek, twisting it in an arc and rotating it back and forth.

"Rhodes, it really is you!"

Alice looked at him with a mixture of surprise and confusion in her big, bright eyes, tilting her head adorably.

"Is it really not a hallucination? Hmm, let me pinch it. If it hurts, then it's real! You can't resist."

Alice was fiddling with his cheeks, and Rod reached out with annoyance, saying:

"If you're going to pinch someone, pinch yourself. Why are you pinching me? Don't think I can't tell you're just making excuses to tease me."

Rod pinched her cheek.

The girl's facial skin was fair and tender, as delicate and smooth as a baby's, making it irresistible to touch.

Rod gently rubbed it, feeling the warmth from his fingertips and experiencing the ultimate tactile pleasure.

Then, as soon as Alice lowered her guard, he chuckled and pulled her little face apart, making a funny smile.

"So, are you sure it wasn't a hallucination now? Wait, why did you lift your leg up?"

"Stop, stop, I'm sorry, I was wrong, I was really wrong, please don't kick me."

After being kicked several times by Alice with her snow boots in a fit of embarrassment and anger, Rhodes quickly released her face and raised his hands in surrender.

"Hmph, it's been over half a year since we last met, and the first thing you do is play tricks on me! You bad Rod, you big jerk!"

Alice puffed out her cheeks, turned her back, and said angrily.

After a while, realizing there was no response from behind, she couldn't help but secretly turn around to look.

There, Rod was opening his arms, as if to embrace her.

Alice's puffed-up cheeks deflated.

She couldn't help but lower her head and gently shake her snow boots to try and distract herself.

She fiddled with her fingers, not wanting this scoundrel to get away with it so easily.

But after a brief moment of hesitation, she couldn't suppress the joy that was welling up inside her, and with a blush on her face, she moved over to Rod's side.

She opened her arms, responding to the embrace before her.

"Rhodes, Alice misses you so much."

Holding the other person tightly, Alice felt the familiar warmth of their embrace, a crescent moon appearing on her lips as she happily spoke.

Looking at the girl leaning against his chest, Rod stroked her soft, long hair and smiled.

"Yeah, me too."

Although the attack by the Frost Dragon has passed, it destroyed a large number of buildings and roads within the city.

After confirming that there were no further threats, the city lord Margaret, who had regained her senses, quickly arranged for her subordinates to begin the reconstruction of the city.

During this process, she would occasionally glance at the princess's carriage, her eyes filled with complex emotions.

There, the escaped outsider was keeping the princess company.

Even the guards around her changed from the city lord's imperial guards to the female prisoners who had also escaped.

But she had no intention of taking these people back.

Even the guards of Tianma City acknowledged this and did not express any dissatisfaction.

It wasn't just because of that outsider who protected Pegasus City with the power of the blessing.

If that were all, Margaret would be grateful.

However, for the safety of the princess and Tianma City, the outsider will still be kept under surveillance, and his true identity will be investigated.

But when the dragon blood was absorbed by the Pegasus avatar, not only her, but all the second-tier guards of Pegasus City could feel that sense of ease from their souls.

Like a traveler walking in the desert, seeing an oasis after suffering from extreme dehydration.

That outsider brought hope.

Margaret could not stop her subordinates' desire to be freed from their torment, nor did she intend to, so she simply let nature take its course.

Inside the carriage, Rod was inspecting the spoils of this trip.

Although most of the purified, mottled divinity was absorbed by the blessing and used to restore the souls of the Pegasus City soldiers.

But this attack was simply too large.

The remaining little bit alone provided Rhodes with over five thousand units of mottled divinity.

More importantly, it's the blood of the White Frost Dragon!

【Name: Dragon Blood Essence】

[Quality: Tier 3, Beginner]

[Effect: Can modify the bloodline of a creature, giving it some characteristics of the dragon race and greatly enhancing its growth potential.]

Rhodes examined the golden blood in his hand, marveling at its powerful effects.

The effect of dragon blood essence is simple and brutal: it directly alters the original bloodline of a creature, turning it into a dragon.

If the modification is successful, theoretically, the dragon species could reach the powerful strength of the early stage of the third tier upon reaching adulthood.

However, the problem is also obvious: given the corrosive nature of dragon blood, the success rate of this modification is predictably low.

Furthermore, unlike normal evolution, the stronger a creature is before it is modified, the lower its chances of success.

Further detailed research is needed before it can be truly put to use.

That being said, Rhodes was absolutely satisfied with what he had gained this time.

"Rhodes, I'm leaving now." Realizing she was about to leave this world, Alice clung to his clothes with reluctance.

"It's okay, we can meet here every week from now on."

Rod patted her little head and comforted her.

Resolving the chaos in Pegasus City took too much time, leaving him little time to reunite with Alice.

But that's not a big problem. In fact, he can see Alice every Monday now.
