I became a vampire princess and then a dragon girl?

The figure that was originally under the attack of countless green electric lights now walked out of the smoke as if nothing had happened, and came to the next barrier, and then did the same...

§234 Erosion

“Huh, huh, huh.”

In the shelter inside the giant tree, Melchis, who had been following Melchis's instructions and staying here obediently, suddenly felt an inexplicable palpitation in her heart for some reason, as if something bad was about to happen.

Just now, according to the notification from others, the inside of the giant tree was invaded by a powerful enemy for some unknown reason. The doors of all the shelters have been closed and the protective energy has been further strengthened to prevent the elves hiding in the shelters from suffering heavy casualties.

But even so, the giant tree would still shake from time to time under the enemy's attacks.

The target of the enemy inside has been made clear, which is the World Tree at the bottom of the giant tree. At this time, the elves are also trying their best to mobilize the remaining combat forces in order to delay the opponent's progress.

That's right, it's procrastination, not defeat.

Because this enemy was also judged to be a possession of the will of a demon god.

In other words, it was an enemy they couldn't fight head-on.

And this is indeed the case. All the combat forces they sent out have lost contact and may have died in battle.

What's worse is that because the giant tree was attacked from inside, the chain reaction weakened the defense outside a lot, resulting in more people being needed to barely block the demon god's will outside.

Otherwise, not to mention internal troubles, they will die from external troubles first.

At the bottom of the giant tree, in front of the World Tree.

"..."

Looking at the barrier in front of him, the black shadow stretched out his hand for the umpteenth time.

Now, only this last layer of barrier remains to protect the World Tree, and the ground in this space is now filled with elves.

They had all fainted on the ground at this time, and only the slightly rising and falling chests could prove that they were still alive.

Although they and the barrier were doing their best to delay time, unfortunately, the battle between Melceris and the others in the demiplane was still inconclusive.

The reason is very simple - the opponent is too tough.

After the official fight, Melcelis and the others discovered that although the power of these demon will possessions was obviously weaker than theirs in the attack area, they were not inferior at all in the defense area. Even if the opponent did not defend, their normal attacks would have little effect on the opponent, as if their bodies themselves had extremely strong resistance to attacks and were very difficult to destroy.

At this moment, the several demiplanes are already riddled with holes, and even the demiplanes themselves are showing signs of damage, but judging from the looks of their opponents, they can still hold on for a while.

crackling——

With a crisp sound, the last barrier protecting the World Tree turned into light spots all over the sky, and the black shadow continued to reach out to the World Tree in silence.

"!"

Almost at the same time, Melceris, who was in the demiplane, also felt a palpitation in her heart.

"world Tree!"

Staring at the demon god's will in front of her, she spoke out the other party's true goal word by word, and then began to attack recklessly.

"Eh? What are you talking about, onee-san? What's the World Tree? I don't understand."

Knowing that the plan outside was successful, the body possessed by the demon will took a completely defensive stance and no longer took the initiative to attack, just trying to delay Melceris in front of him as much as possible.

After a few moves, noticing the change in the opponent's fighting style, Melceris took a deep breath, finally made up her mind, stretched out her hand and drew a magic circle, integrating it into the demiplane.

With the integration of the magic circle, the entire demiplane suddenly began to collapse rapidly. Melceris actually wanted to pull the battle site back to the main world.

Even though she would have to face the siege of at least two demon god's will-carrying bodies, it was still better than an accident happening to the World Tree.

But unfortunately, Merceris realized it a little too late. In front of the World Tree, the hand of the demon god's will had already touched the World Tree.

Like the barrier that had been eroded before, a filthy black color climbed up the trunk of the World Tree. However, unlike the barrier that was completely eroded without any resistance, the World Tree itself began to gather emerald green energy and began to block the spread of black.

"..."

Watching the slow progress of erosion, the black shadow silently inserted his hand into his body, took out a huge sharp fragment, and then stabbed it into the trunk of the World Tree in front of him.

As the fragments penetrated, the black power seemed to have gained a foundation. It instantly broke through the barrier of the World Tree's energy and began to spread rapidly on the World Tree. In the blink of an eye, it had spread to half of the World Tree.

The leaves that were originally as green as emerald have all turned into disgusting black mud under the erosion of black energy, and the unripe fruits have begun to develop rapidly, with a subtle tendency to change into human shape.

The only good news is that after eroding half of the tree, the speed at which the black energy spread slowed down because the remaining half of the energy was more concentrated. This can be considered a blessing in disguise.

As the sharp fragments left the body, the body of the demon god's will began to collapse, turning into black mud bit by bit.

The moment half of the World Tree was eroded, most of the elves inside and outside the giant tree groaned and then fainted on the ground. Black spots began to spread on their originally white bodies, and even the giant tree itself began to quickly be stained with this disgusting darkness.

In this plan against the World Tree, the Demon God prepared a total of five possessions. Among them, the possession that fought against Melceris and the other two was specialized in defense in order to delay time as much as possible.

The one left outside is an attacking piece, used to put pressure on the elves so that they have no time to care about the situation inside, and at the same time to draw out high-end combat forces as much as possible to prepare for the subsequent infiltration.

The one responsible for infiltration has specialized erosion capabilities. If the World Tree is completely eroded by him, he can use the World Tree as a medium to erode the elves.

If everything goes according to the Demon's plan, then the elves will join the Demon's camp.

The elves born from the fruit of the World Tree are almost unable to resist this attack from the origin.

This is why almost all the elves have fainted on the ground at this time.

And right now, everything is going well. Even if Melceris and the others return immediately, the elves will at least be seriously injured.

Even if the erosion is interrupted, the elves who have been eroded by him will need a long time to recuperate before they can recover. At least they will not hinder his future plans.

But at this moment, a golden beam of light burst out from the giant tree and shot straight into the sky.

§235 The Moment of Awakening

"Something's about to happen."

Inside the shelter, Melchis's premonition was growing stronger.

Her body was already burning hot at this time, as if someone would be burned if they touched her lightly.

“Huh, huh, huh.”

With rapid breathing, Melchis felt as if something in her body was about to wake up.

But she didn't feel scared, instead a sense of closeness came over her.

who is she?

"well….."

As the World Tree below was half eroded, a sigh from nowhere sounded in Melchis's ears.

"Leave it to me for a moment..."

It was as if a pair of illusory arms were gently hugging her from behind, making Melchis feel extremely safe.

The next moment, her consciousness was pulled out of her body and turned into a ghost-like existence. However, no one else could see her existence. From her body, an extremely dazzling golden light shot up into the sky and penetrated the entire giant tree.

Under the illumination of this brilliant golden light, the elves who had been in a coma and had dark spots on their bodies regained consciousness while covering their foreheads and groaning.

As the beam of light dissipated, Melchis's clothes also changed into a long dress with a white background and gold edges, revealing her white shoulders.

On the pure white dress, countless golden threads seemed to have life, constantly outlining different patterns.

Her small hands were wearing a pair of long white gloves that covered her forearms. The backs of her hands were also painted with unknown complex patterns made of gold thread, making her look beautiful and sacred.

In her hands, she was holding a small ball, in which the outline of a sapling could be vaguely seen.

"..."

Gently pressing the small ball in her hand to her chest so that it merged with her, the girl opened her eyes. Although it was still the familiar golden pupils, they now looked majestic and sacred.

The God of Elves awakens with this.

The next moment, her figure disappeared from the spot.

—·—·—·—·—·—·—

"?!"

At the moment when the golden light burst out, the will of the demon god, which had already eroded half of the world tree, suddenly felt a sudden increase in resistance. The elves who had been eroded through the connection with the world tree also broke away from his control one after another. Even the remaining half of the world tree itself was probably unable to continue to erode.

Without hesitation, the Demon God immediately chose to tear apart the World Tree, along with the parts of the giant trees outside that had been successfully eroded.

Their minimum goal was to obtain the World Tree or the fruit of the World Tree to repair their bodies, which has now been achieved.

As for the ultimate goal of completely eroding the elves, he didn't think he could really succeed, so there was no problem in withdrawing now.

boom--

With a deafening roar, the giant tree that was originally like a pillar of heaven was torn into two halves from the inside. One half still looked like the original giant tree, while the other half had turned into black mud.

puff--

puff--

puff--

Accompanied by the sound of tearing mud, the elves in the shelter of the eroded half-giant tree were brought out one after another under the wrapping of brilliant golden power and landed on the still intact side of the giant tree.

At this time, Melchis's figure was floating between the two halves of the giant tree.

The elves on the city wall below have also been protected by her power and sent to a safe place. Then some light spots were waved out from her hands, transformed into the appearance of elves, and began to take care of other people, including Xili, who taught Melhis Yedi.

At present, most of the giant tree's defenses have been destroyed. If the defense continues, there will be heavy casualties.

And in the next battle, those abyss waves will no longer be the key problem.

As a clash of top combat forces, her victory or defeat will directly determine the lives of these elves.

crackling——

Before one wave subsided, another wave arose. With the sound of space shattering, two figures were directly spit out. They were none other than Melceris and the embodiment of the demon god's will, who was her opponent.

The entity possessing the will of the demon flew directly into the tree after seeing the half-black giant tree, and did not continue to entangle with Melceris.

Originally, the two of them should have been thrown out earlier, but after Melceris chose to destroy the demiplane, the entity possessing the demon's will chose to start maintaining the demiplane, and the back and forth wasted a lot of time.

Melceris's expression changed drastically after seeing the tragic scene in front of her. The situation outside was far worse than she had imagined. She didn't know how heavy the casualties of the elves would be.

But then she saw Melchis floating quietly beside her.

"!"

Finally, I woke up...

It seems her efforts ultimately failed...

This was true whether it was the battlefield that was supposed to be safe or the attempt to allow her to awaken naturally...

"haven't seen you for a long time."

Looking at Melceris, who still had traces of battle on her body, the awakened Melchis said her first words.

Then she gently raised her hand and sent a golden force towards Melceris, restoring her to the perfect state she was in before the battle.

Their next opponents will be five entities possessing the will of the demon gods, as well as half of an eroded giant tree and the power of the world tree, which is quite tricky.

She has now raised her power to the level of Merceris through forced awakening, but because it is a forced early awakening, it cannot last too long. After the peak, it will begin to decline, so a quick victory is needed.

And in the end, she will transform her body into a new world tree to fill the vacancy of the world tree. At present, she is temporarily transferring the connection between the elves and the world tree to herself, but this is only a stopgap measure. In the end, she still needs to restore it to its original state, so time is very tight.

"Um...long time no see, Sister Sis."

Although she had thousands of words in her heart, in the end, Melceris could only nod to her lightly.

After all, there is no time to reminisce with them right now. The survival of the elves depends on the next battle.

However, just as the two of them were about to launch an attack on the demon god, the space in the distance exploded again, spewing out two figures.

Needless to say, it was Elizabeth, Bestia and their opponents. After being thrown out, the body possessed by the demon's will abandoned its opponents without hesitation and rushed towards the black giant tree.

Compared to Melceris before, Elizabeth and the others were much cleaner. After all, they didn't know such a big change had happened outside, so they were more conservative when fighting.

At this moment, looking at the outside world that had undergone earth-shaking changes, even they were a little surprised.

"Mr. Merceris, what happened?"
