Chapter 427

"W-what?!"

Gini's mind went completely blank.

The next second, the tentacles pulled the three brothers into the pile of black corpses.

The offerings have arrived, and the black spirits of the dead have crossed the boundary between life and death, returning once more.

"Roar!!!--"

Hundreds of dangerous species, fusion beasts, and the ultimate monster of the Knife Trio—

Thus, the Primal Nightmare was born.

The monster slowly rose up, and countless tentacles wriggled on its enormous body.

The heads of various dangerous species and fusion beasts are scattered all over the body.

At the very top of this monster were the Knife Trio- wielding figures, now completely swallowed by darkness.

Their eyes were lifeless, staring blankly ahead, as the black monster drained the Primal Power from their bodies.

A powerful gust of wind forced Leon and his companions on the ground to adopt a defensive stance.

This enormous monster terrified all the people in the empire.

"What... what is that?!"

"The Empire actually kept this disgusting monster a secret from us..."

"Run... run! Those are creatures beyond our comprehension... even Leon probably couldn't handle them—"

In an instant, the already chaotic Imperial Street became even more chaotic.

The commotion seemed to have angered the Primal Nightmare, which began to attack the crowd with impunity.

The Primal Power, black and red, gathered in the mouths of the countless monsters on its body, and then shot out in all directions.

Leon, worried that civilians might get hurt, quickly shouted towards Rebecca and the other two on the low building not far away.

"Have the Lionheart Society members help the people evacuate! Everyone leave the Upper City!"

"Yes, Captain!"

The evacuation of the masses was arranged in time, and Leon and the two Dragon Kings had to face the terrifying Primal Nightmare again.

"Such heavy resentment... I thought second-order fusion was the limit of the Empire's shamelessness, but I didn't expect there were still experts."

"Judging from this guy's physical strength, even your Dragon Annihilation might not be able to take him down."

"Yes... if this can't be resolved, then my Magic Power reserves will truly be depleted—"

"Wait, is this foreshadowing?"

Leon shook his head with a wry smile. "No. Two Dragon Annihilation really are my limit. How about... I give it a try?"

Leon rarely lacked confidence in winning a battle, and he almost never said "let's give it a try."

Even without engaging in combat, Leon and his companions could deeply feel the terror of the Primal Nightmare.

That was the collective resentment of the Gini brothers and countless dangerous species.

In its eyes, every living thing must be killed.

So... we had no choice but to take a gamble.

"Wait a minute."

Losweiser said,

"You've all felt the powerful resentment emanating from this monster, haven't you?"

Leon and Claudia nodded.

"That means... it has extremely strong negative emotions."

With that, the Silver Dragon Queen stepped forward and stood at the feet of the Primal Nightmare.

Compared to the monster that was dozens of stories tall, its slender figure was tiny and insignificant.

But the next moment, a burst of seven-colored light erupted, and a powerful wave of righteous energy spread outwards.

"Primal Magic— "

The Queen wielded seven-colored energy, her silver hair dancing wildly in the shockwaves. To steady herself, she spread her dragon wings, and at that moment, silver-white flowers bloomed across the battlefield; her graceful figure was like an angel descending to earth.

"Soul Judgment".

XXXX

At this moment, Lao Kang was still running on his way.

Also, after this long chapter of 5,000 words, the next chapter will be the Empire's final dance.

General Leon will also deliver the coolest kick of this volume!

Then comes the much-anticipated homecoming table love, dinner, table love, dinner, table love, dinner:)

133. Nine Gates, Open! (6k5!)

The Primal Nightmare seemed to sense the Primal Power Losweiser, which was completely opposite to its own, and thus became even more violent.

It stopped attacking indiscriminately in all directions and instead concentrated all the energy in its body into its chest.

The black and red magical orbs converged here, and the violent aura contained within them was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe.

Even during the energy-charging phase, Leon felt the unprecedented power of this attack.

He stepped forward, gathering Lightning magic in an attempt to help Losweiser.

But Claudia held her shoulder down.

"What's wrong?" Leon asked, turning around.

"In a battle between Primal Power, your conventional Lightning magic won't be of much help."

Claudia said, "Moreover, that black dragon scale is very strange. Apart from Losweiser's Primal Power, I'm afraid ordinary magic is ineffective against it."

Leon gritted his teeth. Although he was somewhat unwilling, Claudia had already explained the situation very clearly. If he acted rashly, he would not only fail to help Losweiser, but might also cause some unnecessary trouble.

With that in mind, Leon stepped back, then slowly raised his arm to shield Claudia behind him. Immediately, magical energy surged up, forming a blue skull.

Super S-Class Lightning Magic - Sumeru's Shadow.

Leon used this move in the battle of 'killing six dragons in ten seconds' to break the full siege of the four dragon kings.

At that time, Leon was able to block it with only the initial form of the Sumeru's Shadow, but now, facing the desperate attempt of the Primal Nightmare, he directly upgraded and strengthened the basic form of the skeleton twice.

In the blink of an eye, the skeleton was covered with a layer of lightning armor, and just by looking at it, its defensive power had been increased by at least several levels.

Claudia gazed at the Sumeru's Shadow protecting her and whispered her praise.

"Of all the people I've met, you're the Only One who has developed the Sumeru's Shadow to this extent."

However, Leon had no time to feel smug in the face of his aunt's praise. He gazed at Losweiser's back and silently cheered her on.

The battle situation in the Upper City was simultaneously projected onto the resonance arrays of the Imprint Stone in various regions of the empire through the remaining Imprint Stone nearby.

In other words, the people of the empire were able to witness this revolutionary war firsthand.

At this very moment, in the image projected by the Imprint Stone, the woman known as the 'Silver Dragon King' is facing the ultimate monster created by the Empire alone.

The frail figure stood before the Primal Nightmare, like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.

Yet she showed no fear whatsoever; the seven-colored light grew even brighter, and her long silver hair swayed and danced in the air currents.

"I never expected the Dragon King would actually stand on our side..."

"But can she defeat that monster?"

"Trust her, and trust Leon Casmod; they will definitely resolve this crisis."

"..."

On the battlefield, both sides have finished accumulating energy.

The Primal Nightmare launched the first attack.

With a deafening roar, a devastating beam of energy shot towards Losweiser.

At this moment, even Rebecca and the Lionheart Society members at the edge of the battlefield could feel the extreme emotions contained in the Primal Nightmare's strike:

Violence, ferocity, anger, greed...

Rather than describing it as a monster's desperate struggle, it was more of a manifestation of 'Abhorrence and Greed'.

"This feeling is simply... bone-chillingly cold."

As a gunner, Rebecca's perception of magical energy was not as good as that of professional magicians like Leon.

Even so, Rebecca was still stunned by the beam of light.

A tingling sensation ran through my entire body, from head to toe.

Cold sweat trickled down her forehead without her even realizing it.

Nacho and Martin looked particularly grave.

"I've never seen an attack like this before... This is different from the oppressive feeling of the Dragon Kings, this is completely..." Martin was at a loss for words to describe his feelings at that moment.

Nacho gave him an answer.

"The dark side of humanity and **. The Knife Trio was betrayed by Cantor, and those dangerous species with intelligence but captured and turned into fusion monsters... They have completely lost their self-awareness, leaving only their anger towards this world."

"What about the captain and the others—"

"Since they have chosen to confront the enemy head-on, it means they are confident in resolving this crisis."

Nacho sighed. "We can't be of any help in a battle of this level."

Everyone could directly feel the power and terror of the Primal Nightmare, but—

How could the Silver Dragon Queen be frightened by such a chaotic and disorderly monster?

Seven-colored light flowed from between her fingers. She seized the opportunity and released her Soul Judgment, directly confronting the energy beam of the Primal Nightmare.

Two powerful energies collided.

In an instant, a fierce wind arose, and the world changed color.

The intensely intertwined energy continuously exploded in all directions, and the flying debris bombarded Leon's Sumeru's Shadow.

Fortunately, Leon had just instructed members of the Lionheart Society to help evacuate the civilians; otherwise, such a powerful clash of energies would have inevitably caused enormous casualties.

The Primal Nightmare continues to inject energy into the beam, its power derived from the Primal Power of the Knife Trio, as well as the darkness and greed hidden within their humanity.

Therefore, in a sense, the Primal Nightmare is stronger than all the enemies that Leon and his companions have ever encountered, both in terms of sustained damage output and burst damage.

This is precisely why Queen Elizabeth felt victory was assured.

"The fact that Leon would seek help means he can guess that we still have some trump cards up our sleeves."

Elizabeth said calmly, "He was right. But he could never have imagined that our trump cards were far beyond his comprehension."

After witnessing the power of the Primal Nightmare, Cantor breathed a sigh of relief. He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and laughed, "The Black Dragon Scale that 'Lord Shadow' gave us are indeed powerful. It can be considered as teaching Leon a lesson before he died, letting him know what it means to be outmatched."

Upon hearing this, Elizabeth glanced at the King beside her and said meaningfully,

"Actually, the Black Dragon Scale is not the Only One trump card that the adults have given us."

"Oh? What else?"

Elizabeth looked away from Cantor and shook her head gently. "I'll keep you in suspense for now; we won't need it anyway."

Cantor didn't ask any more questions and looked back at the battlefield below.

"Roar!!—Die! Die, all of you!!"

The monster let out a deep, furious roar that sent shivers down one's spine.
