Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Having a low combat power was also a good thing for Nangong Wuyue, at least she could not hurt people even if she had lost control. All she could do was just kept casting healing spells on people around her. Guess the giant brain monster did not see it coming.
"Vivian, Lily, bring the siblings out," Hao Ren told them while dodging Wuyue's tail. He then held up the silver lance and rushed to Y'zaks and yelled, "I'm coming to help you!"
Wuyue was hissing while turned to Hao Ren and then throwing lots of supplementary spells like Aquatic Barrier and Living Water Restoration at him. Lily grasped Wuyue's tail and dragged her out of there, ignoring that Wuyue was still struggling and yelling. She was like a little harmless snake, and Lily directly dragged her away without needing the slightest effort.
Meanwhile, Vivian released a swarm of bats and moved the unconscious Nangong Sanba out of from this place.
'The Queen of the Sirens' noticed the new enemy joining the battlefield. She emitted a burst of hissing sound that itched and irritated the roots of Hao Ren's teeth. Hao Ren immediately felt difficult to move, as if he was surrounded by a layer of extremely strong glue that was coagulating rapidly, and his shield capacity began to slowly decline. The giant brain monster had mastered the various spells of the sirens in the centuries-long physical dominance confrontation. It was now increasing the water pressure around Hao Ren, and it almost caused him to have the illusion that water had solidified!
"Heck! It doesn't feel good…" As the shield capacity dropped rapidly, Hao Ren felt a sense of pain and oppression coming from all directions that he almost lost consciousness. He felt that his eyes were bloodshot as the scene before him was being quickly covered with a layer of light red. At the same time, the water around him was surging, tearing and grinding him into powder.
Hao Ren used up all his strength but could barely move in the current. Now he was surprised that Hesse had been fighting in this situation. It seemed that he had underestimated the power of this demon hunter. The water pressure had already reached the level that could not handle by the ordinary creatures.
Y'zaks was waving the enchanted sword and stirring up a hot whirlpool, rushing toward the siren queen. He did not care about the water jet that kept slashing his skin. The water jet was slashing his rock-solid skin and left him with countless fine wounds. The scorching hot lava and molten iron were gushing out of the wounds, making him look like a scorching hot giant statue in the water. The brain monster, which occupied the body of the siren queen, was apparently startled by the way it was attacked. It immediately dodged the attack, and Hao Ren seized this opportunity, raised the lance and threw at the siren queen.
The 'Queen of the Siren' dodged the attack in the nick of time. The glowing silver-white light hit a distant tower, and the tower slowly collapsed along with a dull roar.
"I hope that after all the dust is settled, I don't have to pay the repair fee…" Hao Ren then shook his head, wiped the blood from his nostrils, lifted the protective crystal, and dashed to the 'Queen of the Siren'.
It seemed that the monster had sensed the threat coming from the protective crystal. A sharp roar came from the living water and a shock wave attack Hao Ren head-on. Hao Ren felt everything around him was boiling, and the whole building behind him began to fall apart in the loud high unpleasant cry. The magnificent walls and the spaceship circulating pipeline that had lasted for thousands of years burst from the inside as if they had been hit by a projectile. Countless huge building pieces were falling from above. Hao Ren was trying his best to dodge the falling pieces in this crumbling world. From the corner of his eyes, he saw a flash of lightning rushing out of the smoke below. It was a huge crossbow with a powerful holy flame, and it was rushing to the Queen's protective living water with an indomitable force.
The crossbow caused a big hole on the living water protective barrier. The body of the Queen seemed to have been torn apart at that moment, but the next second she was resurrected, then she stormed out of the siege, toward a distant tower, trying to flee. However, Y'zaks was already waiting for it. A barrier full of green magic runes suddenly appeared in the air, and the Queen crashed right into it.
Hao Ren was already very close to it. He felt that the protective crystal in his hands was gradually emitting heat. After sensing an aggressive mental energy, it automatically launched a built-in defense program. The intensity of the electric field in the surrounding water was finally weakened and a strange buzzing hiss faded from his mind. And the siren, under the shackles of the evil-energy barrier, hissing and screaming sharply while holding her head and transforming rapidly as if she was out of control. For a second she turned into a strange woman covered with scales, the next second she turned into the sea snake, and then turned back to the mermaid form.
The crystal was weakening the mental activity of this hostile soul in the same way of dealing with the First Born, and the weakening of mental activity meant that its control over the stolen body was decreasing.
At this time, a big hand covered with lava and sulfur suddenly stretched out and grabbed the tail of the Queen and spun her rapidly, and then threw her over to Hao Ren.
Hao Ren put the protective crystal on the forehead of the Queen, then looked up at Y'zaks and said, "That's a skillful spin."
Y'zaks grinned and said, "This is how I used to dry Y'lisabet after I bathed her. This is how we demons do."
"…It's not easy to be your daughter!"
The Queen's body, under the impact of the protective crystal, had been twitching and eventually lost consciousness. And the good thing was that her body had stopped transforming, which allowed Hao Ren to tie her up. Then Y'zaks transformed back to the human form, came to Hao Ren and asked, "So this is done?"
"Sort of, but then we have to find a way to 'swap' them back." Hao Ren looked at the siren queen, who was tied up by her own tail and then tied up again with a bunch of alloy ropes, then turned on the communicator. "Rollie, Shaqira, it's done, bring out the giant brain."
"What happened?" Hasse carried the big crossbow, swimming to Hao Ren and asked, "How did the Queen of Sirens have such a strong mental control power? I thought you said only the brain monster could do that?"
Hao Ren patted the snake ball and said, "Because the brain monster is in her body. That thing can exchange its own consciousness with other people, even the Queen. You should be thankful that your brain is strong enough, otherwise, at the critical moment it will certainly do whatever it takes to take you as a second container."
"Why me?"
"The persons closest to that thing are you and Y'zaks," Hao Ren said and pointing to the big demon next to him, "look at his face, if you're the brain monster, would you?"
Hasse unconsciously touched his face and nodded slightly.
Although Hao Ren's team loved to make fun of the person who was not around, Y'zaks seemed to be an exception.
Three of them dragged the Queen who had already lost consciousness and swam back. At the same time, there were huge pieces of building debris falling down, and the water was filled with dust, oil droplets, sand and the smell of sulfur. The building beneath was a mess, and the Queen's bedchamber had been ruined. At least three facilities outside the palace had been blown to pieces. The destructive power of a few minutes of fighting had almost completely destroyed the core control area of Nasaton.
Hao Ren noticed that the latter part of the Queen's Palace was a bridge-like place (where there were many channels and light belts extending to other places), and now there were only a few sections of platforms left, sparking and swaying in the water. He felt sorry and said, "It looks like Nasaton can't fly again ... Unless someone can find the blueprint."
"Err, I think we've ruined this place," Y'zaks said while scratching his head.
Hao Ren looked at the scars on Y'zaks that were healing rapidly and asked, "Are you all right?"
"Just some cuts, it doesn't matter" Y'zaks grinned and said, "The Queen is a powerful enemy, fighting in her place is really difficult, but how to say it... I'm a little bit more powerful."
Outside the Queen's bedchamber, which had been destroyed, everyone was reunited, and Shaqira and Rollie had brought the brain monster that looked clumsy and stiff.
Hasse looked at the peculiar creature in amazement and marveled at its strange form. "This... Where's its mouth?"
"I advise you not to stare at it so rudely. The Queen's soul is trapped inside." Hao Ren reminded Hasse, and then turned to the brain monster and asked, "Your Majesty, you know how to reverse this swapping process?"
