Chapter 542: Chapter 351: Queen Medusa Appears! Queen! I Have Come for You

"This crown?"

Su Xuan stared intently at the Golden crown, his eyes wide with surprise.

He had thought that Rodela, as the Undead Monarch’s male favorite, would be guarding one of the Monarch’s secrets.

’And it turns out to be Queen Medusa’s crown?’

’What’s more, the crown’s effect is bizarre—it can take me directly to Queen Medusa’s side!’

But Queen Medusa was currently in the Land of Silence, a Domain one couldn’t enter and leave at will. Without thorough preparation, even a Demigod would perish there.

"How could it be this thing?"

Alina, however, wore an expression of disbelief as she looked at the crown, as if this outcome was far from what she had anticipated.

After a moment of thought, her eyes flickered, as if she understood the reason why.

"I see. To think that was the reason!"

"What are you muttering to yourself about?" Su Xuan asked, turning to Alina in confusion. He had no idea what she was rambling on about.

"The Queen sent us here to eliminate Rodela," Alina explained with a smile, gently cupping the crown as it hovered in mid-air. "The reason was that our investigation suggested Rodela might be guarding a treasure capable of threatening the Elf Race, or of countering the Undead Monarch. But now, we have a clear answer."

"Uh-huh?"

Alina held the crown out to Su Xuan and continued, "A being who can threaten the safety of the Elf Race and also... no! A being who is powerful enough to destroy the Undead Monarch!"

"You’re talking about... Queen Medusa?"

Su Xuan replied as he took the crown from Alina and admired it carefully.

He seemed to understand what Alina meant.

After all, Queen Medusa was a being who had been to the Divine Realm. Judging from the records, her power was most likely greater than the Elf Queen’s.

"Of course it’s her!"

Alina said with a smile, "However, we can’t be sure if Queen Medusa is still alive, so it’s just an unknown factor for now."

"So, are we going to use this unknown factor?" Su Xuan then asked.

"Let the Queen decide. We should leave this place and return to the main battlefield." Alina shrugged, snatched her Praised Sword from Su Xuan’s hands, and then snatched Queen Medusa’s crown as well.

But as she prepared to lead them back, she noticed Su Xuan hadn’t moved. "What are you spacing out for?" she asked, confused.

"Wait."

Su Xuan answered simply, then strode over to Rodela’s head lying on the ground.

"What are you..."

Alina was about to speak, but she saw Su Xuan raise his foot and stomp down hard.

Rodela’s head burst under his foot. Blood splattered everywhere, but none of it touched his Dragon Scale Armor.

[Killed Rodela. Experience +1,000,000!]

[Obtained Super Rare Additional Trait—Super Crystal Turtle!]

"Let’s go."

Su Xuan immediately turned, ready to return to the main battlefield with Alina.

At the same time, he released Mare Rhine from the Fusion.

But in that instant, Mare Rhine leaped up and landed on Su Xuan’s shoulder, angrily pounding on his head. "Despicable human! You must have become Mira Orri’s lackey! You traitor!"

"Stop, stop, stop! Stop it!"

Su Xuan hurriedly plucked Mare Rhine from his shoulder, but the sight of two streams of tears running down the Little Stupid Dragon’s cheeks made him instantly understand what was on her mind.

He ruffled Mare Rhine’s hair and soothed her, "Don’t you worry. I’ve never betrayed you. I’ve always been on your side."

"Really?"

Mare Rhine wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes, wanting a more definite promise from Su Xuan.

"I’ll swear an oath, okay?" Su Xuan raised his hand, preparing to swear.

Mare Rhine’s expression immediately brightened, and she laughed excitedly. "Then I shall believe you, human! But don’t think you can escape my True Eye of the Dragon King! I’ll be watching you! Waaatching~"

"..."

Su Xuan was stunned for a second, then a faint smile appeared on his face.

Mare Rhine’s thoughts were simpler than he had imagined. Or perhaps, she was just a big, silly dragon with a one-track mind!

"Alright, alright, we should..."

He had just begun to speak when, suddenly!

A strange sensation washed over him, and over Alina as well.

"What’s going on?"

Su Xuan felt a wave of dizziness. He clutched his head, trying to steady himself.

"Human! Human! What’s wrong with you?"

Mare Rhine noticed something was wrong with Su Xuan and immediately rushed over, trying to catch his faltering body.

But just as she reached out, a moment before she could touch him, Su Xuan vanished without a trace, as if he had evaporated into thin air.

"Human! Where are you? Human!"

Mare Rhine cried out in a panic, searching for any sign of Su Xuan.

But in the empty space, no one answered. Only her heart-wrenching cries echoed in the air.

Lucia and the others also rushed over, their faces filled with worry. They couldn’t find any sign of Su Xuan; they had even lost the special connection that, as Adventurers, they shared with their Guild President.

"Don’t worry. He was just teleported to the Land of Silence."

At the critical moment, Alina explained to the women, "I didn’t expect the Undead Monarch to have left a trick on the crown. I don’t know who it was meant for. Oh well~ I guess I’ll have to make a trip. Don’t you worry. No matter what happens, I will bring that man back safe and sound."
