Chapter 993 Simulated Battle Against Lesser Ruvoid God
Chapter 993 Simulated Battle Against Lesser Ruvoid God
The encounter with the fused Ruvoid God went incredibly smoothly without hiccups, but it left everyone unsettled.
Elysia then explained her encounter and the exchange of three questions to everyone.
"I see... No wonder you suddenly got mental exhaustion after more than a hundred formations and countermeasure arrays lost their effect. He was wise enough not to involve himself in a clash." Nell landed on Elysia's head, relieving Elysia's mental exhaustion with blessing magic.
"In that case, this fits one of the possibilities we predicted, and we can proceed with some follow-up plans. However, the other party is confirmed to be able to use the propechy as well, huh..." Luna bit her fingernails, feeling a bit uneasy.
"That Ruvoid God wouldn't ask if he had a higher level of divination than me. His shadow also wouldn't be hurt when he dared to open the imaginary realm to trap Ely. I dare to assume he only got a fragment of the local God with propechy ability." Fortuna folded her arms and puffed out her chest, feeling confident in her assumption.
"That probably is true." Rhea felt that Fortuna made sense.
"..." Lifa was silent, not expressing any opinion. She had prepared herself if Zadris and Hera had left for real.
Zadris and Hera sacrificed their divine bodies to seal the strongest Ruvoid Gods in desperation. Perhaps, their soul body had reincarnated through samsara long ago. However, the so-called calamity became even more complicated since the enemy could be said to be the result of the combination of four divine entities.
"Tch, those two self-centered bastards' flesh has been refined by the enemy, huh. After sealing the invaders, the seal actually gave the Ruvoid God cultivate his power to become stronger." Xero clicked his tongue, feeling a bit irritated about many things.
"I'm more concerned about how that thing is always targeting Ely as if she is their top priority to be eliminated. Don't you have a Goddess master? Why is she always hiding inside your body and allowing you to be bullied?" Oceanid stroked his chin, feeling somewhat confused by Elysia and her Goddess master.
"We need to combine our power to perfectly resist the curse." Elysia answered briefly while holding her forehead.
"Combine?" Oceanid could guess a few things but didn't dwell on those assumptions. This master and disciple were so unique, to begin with.
"Ely." Evelyn was coincidentally beside Elysia and immediately supported her best friend.
"Thank you, Eve. I'm just a little dizzy. Please help me to sit down." Elysia smiled wryly from feeling weak. It was just a little over a hundred divine-class passive protection active simultaneously, and she was already exhausted by the time the effect wore off.
'You underestimate yourself, Ely. Any other God even struggles to keep looking fresh after using twenty divine protection passives, let alone more than a hundred.' Ai comforted Elysia from behind the shadows.
'All defense mechanisms activated just because of the mere invasion of the Ruvoid Shadow... What about the real thing later? Ely had to use a fuse with Lifa, Nell, Rhea, and Fortuna when the decisive battle broke out?' Elena felt a bit dismay about what they needed to do next. After being sealed for so long, the greatest threat became stronger instead of weaker.

'It's okay, we can get through this together. It's five against four if we put it at face value. You two are my hidden blades, not to mention, everyone's supports. This won't be a desperate battle like the previous era.' Elysia tried to reassure Elena with a gentle tone.
"..." Elysia breathed softly and rested herself in Evelyn's embrace. But she didn't sleep.
"..." Evelyn felt an inexplicable sense of joy from within her heart. She stroked Elysia's head on her chest with a gentle smile.
"Uhm..." Vanessa scratched her head. Her master was in Evelyn's care, and it wasn't good if she took her master even though she wanted to take care of her master too.
"So, what shall we do now? Out of all the possibilities, the one we came up with was the easiest due to Elysia's exchange with that Ruvoid God. He also didn't seem ready to clash with us. Because of that, he allowed the seal to be strengthened unconditionally." Regulus frowned as he looked at the moon, which was getting smaller.
"I've extracted Number One's Ruvoid power fragment without converting it into anything. Her soul body is intact too. Ely, lend me your Celestia." Zera went closer to Elysia.
"What are you going to do with it?" Elysia opened one eye and glanced at Zera's dark purple eyes.
"I remember you treated that sword with great care. It was originally destroyed, but you repaired it and forged it to become a heaven grade magic sword. How about putting Number One's soul body into Celestia to become the sword spirit? She has already handed over her fate to me, you see." Zera put her hands together, looking at Elysia with an expectant gaze.
"Here." Elysia took out the two-meter Odachi from her Space Bag.
"Hehe, I will return it soon. It will be a perfect cursed sword for you to use." Zera was excited to try making a masterpiece-level cursed sword with a sword spirit.
"Come to think of it, you will refine that avatar's soul body into a sword spirit? Wait, you are originally also a Ruvoid Avatar. Are you going to just let it go?" Oceanid pursed his lips, wondering what the Goddesses were thinking. Even though the Zera have become allies for some reason, what about the other?
"Zera is the result of our influence. You don't need to worry. Even though she is becoming more and more unruly, she still listens to Elysia's words unconditionally. She is good, and we won't curb her freedom as long as she knows her duty." Lifa shook her head.
"We can make a simulation against the lesser Ruvoid God with this fragment. There are two here, and they might make good sparring opponents for you to prepare against the real strengthened Ruvoid God." Zera exposed two intimidating dark fragments to everyone.
Those little fragments floated above Zera's palm. Still, several girls immediately kept their distance and put their defensive stance by reflex.
"It's only two, but you have seven. Instead of fighting the lesser one, wouldn't it be better to fight you, the former Ruvoid Avatar?" Xero raised his eyebrows and grinned broadly like a great demon about to play with his prey to death.
"I don't care about you, and I don't want to get involved in a pointless thing like sparring with you. I have something to do. Find a secret realm in any forbidden land, and you can try fighting two lesser Ruvoid Gods. I hope you don't get blacked out just for fighting the fake things." Zera snorted sarcastically, then went into Elysia's bracelet realm with no courtesy.
"Please don't antagonize her. She has started a life path in new leaf as Ely's people." Rhea stood in front of Elysia and Evelyn.
"Forget it. Let's do as she just said. I also want to know how strong the lesser Ruvoid God is. Instead of two, combine it into one, and it will be challenging." Xero folded his arms and snorted. He was already feeling a bit suspicious about the affairs around Elysia. Still, he wasn't good at thinking profoundly and just put that thought aside, at least for now.
The spaceship then returned to Vrelenia and landed in one of the forbidden lands in the far south.
It was just an island the size of a major city but harbored the previous era's ancient palace underground. The Nameless Land, the last forbidden place that Elysia had not visited in person.
"The training battle against the lesser Ruvoid God would be devastating, and it shouldn't be done on the surface. I'll try to find a secret realm here. Just give me a few minutes." Rhea took a few steps from everyone, then crouched down and placed her hands on the ground. She used her nature detection to find the rough coordinates of the portal to the secret realm.
"I found one nearby. Gio, come with me." Rhea made a gesture, then approached a particularly thick tree.
"Rawr!" Gio was happy to help. After all, he was always a good assistant and the perfect guide in treasure hunting.
When Gio was diving underground to retrieve the portal, the girls breathed a sigh of relief because they felt a fraction of the burden had been lifted. The pressure and suppression weren't there, but the responsibility for the future decisive battle was still tremendous.
"Don't look too burdened. Our presence is to support and assist our master with all we have. Anyway, what do you think about the true form of the combined Ruvoid God sealed in the moon. You see, they have become one entity, right?" Vanessa tried to revitalize the vigor and change the atmosphere with different topics.
"Lynn, Luna, and Goddess Tuna have tried to describe the form of our main enemy in their divination. Ai is probably more familiar with it since that description resembles the shadow beast in the Boundless Realm." Yuuki stuck a large umbrella in the beach sand. It was such a hot day, and no one wanted Elysia's condition to worsen.
Evelyn helped the dizzy Elysia to sit in the shade to rest. "How are you feeling, Ely?"
"I feel better already, thanks to Goddess Helen's help. Let me rest my head here for a few more minutes. Your healing cushion is so comfortable, Eve." Elysia wrapped her arms around Evelyn's waist.
"Ely, you are so bad. Wouldn't it be better if you lay down and I'll give you a lap pillow?" Evelyn blushed because Elysia was fond of teasing someone now, not a shy girl anymore.
"That's a great idea." Elysia then lay down on the sand and made Evelyn's lap her pillow.
"Here, I made a projection based on the description of that divination. Perhaps, the shape isn't certain. After all, Zera and Number One said the moon's Ruvoid God is formless." Ai came out of Elysia's shadow and made a projection of a monster from dark magic.
At a glance, it was like black ginseng shrouded in a shadowy mist with hundreds of eyes rippling blood red. The monster also has many tentacle-like tails. At a glance, some girls could tell it looked like a giant mutated octopus, and Dori confirmed it.
Xero also felt curious and peeked at the projection above Ai's hand. "Is his main form like that? So ugly."
"Who knows? Maybe, he is much scarier and more terrible than that projection? Nevertheless, he is indeed similar to a deep sea creature. Maybe, we can call the universe a sea of stars?" Oceanid stroked his chin while observing the projection.
