The complete form of [Jiekeluo] possessed terrifying destructive power, its strength immensely formidable.
Meanwhile, the Fourth Princess was a long-renowned genius of the [Atlantis] imperial family.
Unable to wield the [Divine Armament], [Li Long] felt as though he were plucking chestnuts from the fire... Just then, a familiar sensation from his soul reached him.
[Li Long] was secretly delighted. [Groudon] had returned!
"Li Long, I was intercepted by [X]. The [Forbidden Species] has most likely already fallen into Prince Anle's hands. I'm sorry."
A gentle female voice rang directly in [Li Long]'s mind.
His hands operating the [Power Fighter] could not help but pause. "We'll let this slide for now. The matter of the [Forbidden Species] isn't over yet... For the moment, deal with [Jiekeluo] first. No matter what, we cannot let it fall into Princess Phyllis's hands."
The Fourth Princess had yet to successfully suppress [Jiekeluo]. If she did, even if the Imperial Royal Court formally intervened afterward, it would be difficult to make her hand it over voluntarily.
"[Jiekeluo] is undoubtedly the strongest among us," [Groudon]'s voice sounded again. "I'm not confident either. Let's do our best."
[Li Long] nodded.
This was a trait of the special breed known as the [White Wolf Dragon]. Once their capacity to endure damage had a host, they would lose a portion of their strength and potential. Though that strength could eventually recover, it would take a long time, while the lost potential would never return.
Part of the reason [Jiekeluo] had refused to choose a host until now was its unwillingness to expend a portion of its potential.
"I'll hold off the Fourth Princess. You deal with [Jiekeluo]!"
[Li Long] swiftly formulated a battle plan.
[Groudon] acted instantly, turning into a streak of white as it plunged straight into the battlefield.
