Lover ahead
The dragon opened its blood-red maw, but in that split second, Gullfaxi, riding Ortlinde, unleashed incredible speed, instantly carrying Ortlinde away. The dragon's bite missed its target, but its gaze shifted instantly, locking onto Ortlinde in the distance.
It spread its wings, and a fierce magical power burned on its body. At the same time, countless Rune Runes surrounded it, and... Magnetic Field Rotation —850,000 horsepower!
Having just unleashed its power, Gullfaxi was panting heavily. The dragon quickly turned its spear and continued its attack on Ortlinde. But soon, a figure landed on its head like a shooting star.
Bai Mo unleashed a Orca Tyrant Fist, shattering the dragon's head scales, causing its head to crash heavily to the ground. Bai Mo's senses penetrated deep into the dragon's brain, and he felt an intense surge of bloodlust.
"They don't seem like guards. No, maybe they were before, but have they completely lost their way now?"
Bai Mo said, and then, his hands unleashed an incomparably powerful force. He slammed them down, the Magnetic Field Rotation at a rate of 820,000 rpm— the God-Severing Thunderbolt!
As the dragon roared, its tail suddenly shone brightly, revealing a long, amethyst-like spear that thrust towards Bai Mo.
The moment they saw the gun, Ortlinde, Sigurd, and the Chaldea almost held their breath. They all knew the origin of the gun, and their minds instantly grasped the identity of the dragon.
But it was too late. The God-Severing Thunderbolt had already struck the dragon's head with a deafening crash, blood splattered, and the dragon let out a groan before falling to the ground.
"This... how is this possible? Sister Brynhildr?"
Ortlinde murmured to herself, looking at the dragon beneath Bai Mo's feet. The dragon struggled to open its eyelids and looked at Ortlinde not far away, its gaze devoid of any murderous intent, only gentle, like an elder sister watching over her younger sister.
Brynhildr? Is that the Valkyrie?
Bai Mo was somewhat puzzled, but at the same time, Chaldea's confirmation came to his mind. Ritsuka had summoned this Valkyrie before, and the spear that had just appeared from the tail of the giant dragon was none other than Brynhildr's spear.
The scene fell silent instantly. Ortlinde had thought about reuniting with Brynhildr, as had every Valkyrie. They all harbored extremely complex but profound feelings for their elder sister.
Sigurd was also watching from afar, and now he understood why the dragon had roared; it must have sensed his presence.
Bai Mo landed from above, looking at Sigurd and Ortlinde in the distance. They seemed somewhat lost, standing still. Bai Mo waved to them, looking rather carefree.
Seeing this, Ortlinde spurred her warhorse toward Bai Mo, with Sigurd following closely behind. They arrived at the dragon's side, its eyes now completely closed.
"Why did this happen..."
Ortlinde reached out and touched the dragon, but the dragon did not react at all.
"Don't just stand there! Is there any way to fix this? Is it a curse or something? If not, go contact Skadi right away."
Bai Mo frowned as he looked at Ortlinde.
"Huh?"
"What's wrong? This thing has gone so far as to try and eat you up. We definitely need to incapacitate it first." Bai Mo frowned, looking at the two of them with a hint of doubt.
"You don't think I'd kill this guy who's guarding this place, do you? His 850,000 dragon hearts are perfectly intact. His brain just exploded a little, he's not dead. Tell me what you can do, his brains are already starting to reflux."
Ortlinde and Sigurd looked and indeed saw that the dragon's brain matter had begun to flow back under the application of Magnetic Field Power. Bai Mo's Complete Realm was extremely high, but some moves, in order to be effective, required overwhelming the opponent in terms of numbers, such as the Magnetic Field Heavenly Lock.
Moreover, this guy clearly knows Rune Runes. If we seal his Magnetic Field Power, what will we do with his Runes? Ortlinde and Sigurd both fight using external aids; they might not be able to withstand it on their own.
Therefore, it's safer to give it a good whack on the head; this reflects Bai Mo's confidence in his control over his power.
Seeing Bai Mo's carefree expression, Ortlinde couldn't help but twitch her lips. Her sadness and sorrow vanished instantly, and she was even a little amused and exasperated.
In the end, the two people who did not understand the Magnetic Field Power could only sigh deeply.
"Wow, that's amazing! The Magnetic Field Power!"
"So, do you have any ideas? This heart is surprisingly powerful. I could slap it again at any time, but delay might cause problems. We may have already attracted the attention of some beings."
Bai Mo's senses were constantly surrounding him. Although he couldn't perceive anything else, he had a bad feeling. This feeling, as if he were being watched by a creature in the darkness while he was deep in the ocean, made him not want to stay here any longer.
He couldn't allow it to enter Skadi's barrier until he dealt with this thing; there were still a bunch of ordinary people there.
Let me give it a try.
Sigurd volunteered and quickly began to set up the Rune Runes. Although Bai Mo had also studied Runes with Touko for a period of time, the difference between him and the Primal Runes was considerable.
Runes flowed continuously, and now the dragon had resumed breathing; this was the crucial moment.
"My love, Brynhildr, can you hear my call?"
Sigurd placed his hand on the dragon's face, his voice as gentle as a spring breeze, his fingers touching it carefully, as if gently caressing a precious shard of jade.
Ortlinde watched this scene with a complex expression. Her feelings about Sigurd and Brynhildr's love affair were also very complicated. As Odin's creation, they had been changed because of love, betrayed like humans, and ultimately died.
She had never been good at understanding this kind of feeling. Unlike her other sisters, Ortlinde was very young and had always acted according to the commands of her father and sisters. In her eyes, perhaps this feeling was as deadly as poison.
But for some reason, looking at Sigurd, she felt inexplicably that this was such a romantic thing.
She glanced at Bai Mo standing to the side, but Bai Mo's expression remained unchanged, even revealing a hint of disapproval.
"Um, you'd better take your hand back..."
No sooner had he finished speaking than the giant dragon before him bit off Sigurd's arm. Surging magic power, mixed with Magnetic Field Power, seemed poised to unleash its dragon breath at any moment.
Sigurd's arm was spurting blood, and his face was covered in blood gushing from his arteries. Ortlinde stared blankly at the scene, the romantic atmosphere from just moments before vanishing instantly.
"Sorry, it didn't work."
Sigurd gave a hearty laugh, blood dripping like a fine drizzle onto his glasses, and that laugh was as eerie as could be.
With a thud, Bai Mo landed another punch on the dragon's head, forcibly suppressing its breath. He then used his Magnetic Field Power to heal Sigurd, his face full of helplessness.
"Thank you for your help. If I lost this hand, it would be difficult to explain to my Master later."
"Don't say this to me with a smile on your face covered in blood."
"That won't do. We should express our gratitude when we receive help, especially in front of my wife, haha."
For some reason, Sigurd seemed surprisingly outgoing. Bai Mo shook her head helplessly and looked at the two who had an inexplicably harmonious relationship before turning her Ortlinde away.
Humans are so complicated...
Just then, a voice came from the cave entrance.
"Is that Skadi's helper?"
Everyone turned to look and saw a purple-haired girl dressed in what looked like a school uniform walk out. Upon seeing her, Bai Mo raised an eyebrow. In his perception, the girl in front of him was a vampire.
