Yan took out a bracelet from his pocket and weighed it in his hand.
"It's so thoughtful that it was teleported here with me, even though I didn't originally have it with me."
"Ha ha……"
The colorful bird could only smile wryly and sigh that Her Majesty the Queen was as meticulous and mysterious as ever in doing things.
"Don't look so gloomy. Since we're already here, let's treat it as sightseeing. Although Brother Sixteen has told us a lot about this world, none of us have seen it with our own eyes."
Beside her, Linghua observed her surroundings with curiosity while smiling and speaking... Although she didn't know what the Queen and the God King were planning by sending her in as well, the girl's expression showed no sign of panic, which only showed that she was very adaptable.
The colorful bird smiled more bitterly, while its mind raced with thoughts.
Although she knew what Yan was holding, she couldn't be sure if it really had the value to be delivered in this way. She felt that the reason was just an excuse, and there was a high chance that Tianjun had ulterior motives.
But if they really need what Flame has, then it means that if they don't hurry, Izayoi might be in danger.
However, it would be difficult for them to find Izayoi in a short time. Considering the non-interference nature of the competition itself, no matter what rules or loopholes the Heavenly Army used to throw them in, it would be impossible for them to be thrown directly into a position close to Izayoi... The possibility of randomness is extremely high.
Given the size of this continent, it's impossible to expect them to be very close to Izayoi and the others.
"Ugh, this is so annoying."
In the miniature garden, Ayatsuki Kudo is a knight of the Halloween Queen. Although she is not directly responsible to the Heavenly Army, she can basically be considered a subordinate of the Heavenly Army given the current relationship between the Queen and the Heavenly Army... But even so, Ayatsuki still hopes that the Heavenly Army can make things a little clearer.
Those guys are even less human than the Queen.
Even the gentle rainbow bird couldn't help but want to complain like the flame.
As if in response to the girl's feelings, the ground shook again.
This also drew the attention of the three people, who were now temporarily safe and calm.
Yan frowned immediately.
"That volcano..."
The boy seemed to want to say something, but then the colorful bird suddenly raised its sword again.
"Who?!"
Even amidst the chaos of the earthquake, it seemed to clearly sense someone approaching... Flame, who hadn't sensed anything, had to admire the azalea's abilities.
At that moment, two figures emerged from the woods in front of them.
After getting a clear look at each other, Yan and Linghua both widened their eyes.
The other person also seemed surprised, raising their eyebrows.
"Ha...it's you guys."
As the hoarse voice from the other party woke them up, Homura and Suzuka almost wanted to run directly towards the other party, but were stopped by Ayatori.
Although Ayano also stared at the two approaching figures with a somewhat worried look, she still pointed her sword at them with vigilance.
"Why... are you all here? Were you teleported here together?"
In fact, the unique resentment and anger emanating from the other party is almost impossible to fake, but it is precisely because of this resentment and anger that the colorful bird dares not relax easily.
"Not bad, you're quite vigilant, young lady."
One of the two approaching figures—the heavily wounded Rama wielding an axe—revealed a mocking smile.
"However, I have no idea whether it's related to anything. I was brought here by that brat. It's unexpected that you guys are here. Honestly, that guy actually has a Garden of Wonders invitation that can forcibly teleport people. Does he have a Breakthrough Person helping him behind the scenes? ... Rather than all this, you kids would be better off leaving here quickly and taking this girl with you!"
Rama, who had been smiling and sighing, suddenly changed the subject, pushed the albino girl next to him toward the group, and turned around.
Hisako quickly stepped forward to protect the girl behind her, her sword-wielding stance remaining firm.
This time, however, her target was no longer Rama the Axe-Holder.
"What, not going to keep running?"
As a strange voice, whose gender and age were indiscernible, appeared, a storm suddenly arose, forming a giant spiral in the sky.
"I thought it was interesting to hear that he was some kind of hero assassin, but I didn't expect him to be only this good... In that case, I'll take your life without hesitation. Wait... why are there a few more people here?"
The sorcerer who had caused the storm then noticed Flame and the others. The unexpected turn of events seemed to make him pause for a moment, but he quickly spoke again.
"Fine, I'll just take you down first!"
"Hmph... It's good that you think that way."
Rama, wielding the axe, looked disdainful. If she didn't need to protect the girl beside her, she had absolutely no reason to back down.
No matter how weak her body is, she is undoubtedly a cripple of martial arts and an unjust person.
However, the two did not manage to fight each other.
A streak of light flashed by, like an arrow shot through a gap in the storm.
Then—it precisely deflected the sorcerer's head away.
Her brilliant golden hair fluttered in the gale, and Kudo Ayatsuki coldly lowered her longbow.
After returning to the Garden of Immortals, the Queen's Knights finally shed their usual masks and revealed their true warrior nature under the pressure.
Chapter 797 The Immortal Tiger and the Demon King
Accompanied by a golden flash, the sorcerer, who was originally floating high in the air, was directly beheaded.
Everyone present looked at the colorful bird with slightly surprised expressions.
However, the latter was not complacent about his achievements; on the contrary, he was somewhat anxious.
"Come on!"
Rainbow Bird had lost count of how many times she had said this since returning to the Little Garden, but now she had no choice but to say it again.
"Huh?"
It seems that the main enemy has lost its threat... Even so, out of trust in Ayaka, Homura still grabbed Suzuka's hand and ran to the side after a moment of hesitation.
At that moment, Saigo Homura, who was running and looking back, also noticed the anomaly that Ayatori might be worried about.
The headless body remained motionless in place—not falling, but continuing to hover in the air.
"Lord Rama the Axe-Wielder!"
"I understand. I'm not that stubborn."
The bird's cry seemed to indicate that it was worried that Axe-Holding Rama would be left alone, but Axe-Holding Rama, who had always acted quite toughly, acted quite decisively this time, striding towards Saigo Homura.
The colorful bird breathed a slight sigh of relief, and then quickly fired three more arrows at the sorcerer's remaining body. Each arrow accurately found and pierced the weak point of the still blowing storm, aiming directly at the headless body's heart and other vital points while blocking all its escape routes.
Although her skills haven't fully recovered, this single shot is enough to prove that the former Queen Knight still stands at the very top of the martial arts world—anyone with relevant knowledge who witnessed the previous arrow and the current three arrows would reach the same conclusion.
After shooting the arrow, the colorful bird quickly caught up with Yan and the others, but its attention did not completely leave them. Instead, it kept the arrow and its opponents firmly in its line of sight as it ran.
"...Tsk, have we been found out?"
Burned by such a gaze, the voice from before reappeared in displeasure, and the headless body moved at the same time.
The head, which should have been blown away by the arrow, drew an eerie arc in the air before being caught by the sorcerer with one hand. He then skillfully put it back on his body, and the wound, which was originally full of blood, quickly healed to the point that it seemed to have never existed.
As the sorcerer made this series of movements, the robe he was wearing was instantly blown open, from which seven beads shot out, blocking the three arrows fired by the colorful bird.
The other party did not rush to pursue them, but instead smiled and watched them walk away.
"So he's still alive after all..."
The colorful bird squinted its eyes and did not nock its arrow again.
Although she was confident that she could shoot accurately even while running, since she could easily block the attack just now, it was foreseeable that if she continued to shoot, it would not be able to restrain the enemy now that they were on guard.
Moreover, at this moment, the colorful bird was unable to concentrate all its attention on the other party.
—If her opponent was only this one person, she wouldn't have hesitated to run away with Yan like this.
The girl and the axe-wielding Rama exchanged glances, then nodded simultaneously.
The next second, the familiar battle axe appeared in the hand of Axe-wielding Rama, and she swung it without hesitation, colliding with the huge figure that burst through the forest almost simultaneously.
“───!”
The sound of clashing steel shook the surroundings. The confrontation lasted less than a second. The enormous figure that appeared at supersonic speed, which Saigo Homura had not noticed at all, sent the petite axe-wielding Rama flying almost immediately after the clash. However, its trajectory was also slightly deflected, and it rushed past in front of the group, destroying a large patch of woodland next to them.
But no one had time to think about protecting the plants. The impact of their high-speed advance even blew Yan and the others who were running forward backward... If they were any closer, the impact might have torn them apart.
"Well……"
Cai Niao gritted her teeth, replaced her steel bow with a snake-belly sword, and stood guard beside the falling crowd.
The seven precious orbs that had just been there now surrounded the group, and the enormous figure that had stopped them was gradually emerging from the crater and dust it had created.
"White Tiger...?"
Emerging from the smoke was a tiger-shaped mythical beast with white fur... no, it might be more accurate to call it a celestial beast.
The other seven orbs also appear to fly by manipulating fluids, and presumably, the storm that was just stirred up was also thanks to these seven orbs. This kind of blessing can be described as all-encompassing in both offense and defense; once a certain number are collected, they become incredibly troublesome.
Even when surrounded, the colorful bird remained calm and collected, strategizing to deduce the information it could.
This information alone is useful enough.
"A white-furred celestial tiger, a body that can survive even after being beheaded, a precious pearl that can roam freely in the void—so that's it..."
The colorful bird turned its gaze to the sorcerer approaching from the sky, and at the same time saw through the other party's true identity.
If her memories of her 'past life' were correct, and the enemy was even one of the demon kings sealed away in the distant past, then even if she had just gained the upper hand in the attack, she couldn't underestimate the opponent, let alone the current situation where she seemed to be at a disadvantage... Ayaka stared at the enemy with the utmost vigilance.
"White-browed Tiger, you're late."
The sorcerer didn't immediately speak to Yan and the others, but instead spoke irritably to the immortal tiger beside him.
This time, the other party didn't use the storm to distort their voice... in fact, there was no need to do so.
Whether it was her body and appearance revealed after the storm subsided and her robe was lifted, or her clear voice, the image she projected was undoubtedly that of a young girl who was not yet an adult.
"Isn't it because you, little girl, are too reckless and impulsive? I told you long ago that if you keep going like this, you'll run into trouble sooner or later... In fact, you've already learned your lesson before, haven't you learned it yet?"
Meanwhile, Baihu showed none of the dignified and otherworldly demeanor he had displayed when he emerged from the dust and smoke. He retorted to the girl in a lecturing tone without any politeness.
"Tch... It's not your place to talk, you who's always rushing around recklessly."
The girl snorted unhappily, but the bickering between the human and the beast ended there.
