The Ultimate Evolution

Chapter 836: Witness

Translator: Translation Nation Editor: Translation Nation

On the 2nd level were railings, ballistae, and even embrasures for the Elves to shoot or cast spells from, as well as some decorative engravings. A large amount of vines intertwined together to form the structures. A lot of Elves were standing on the terrace, looking over.

In the middle of the 3rd level was a Sacred Battle Oak. The oak was the true body of Ferrell, the Ent who battled alongside Sheyan.

He might not be as old and as powerful as the Sacred Oak Sindalor, but he's more than powerful enough to be the core tree protecting this water fortress. He transformed his legs into 7 thick roots which held together the whole water fortress into a single unit. On Ferrell's sides were piles of rocks that weighed hundreds of kilograms. Ferrell's arms were left free so that he can throw the rocks as projectiles. With his terrifying strength, his range was frightening.

A fortified railing encircled Ferrell. The Elves standing on the 3rd level were all Elves of high statuses. They grouped around Melody like stars congregating around the moon.

Melody was no longer the Melody from before. She wore a bright red robe which brought out a more mature side of hers. In her hand was a fine staff made by the Dwarves. Dazzling spots of lights of emerald green floated around the staff. Occasionally, the staff would project images of sprouts, leaves and flowers.

Melody was also wearing a flame shaped accessory on her ear. On it was engraved a dazzling gemstone that had 3 colours - red, yellow and blue. The accessory was an exquisite piece of work made especially to counter Melody's lack of MP. Melody could store her spiritual power in it when she meditates, and use it later. Sindalor also bestowed a permanent flame shield spell on the accessory.

According to Segimli, this accessory named [The Attention of the Sun God] would definitely rank top 3 in the coming Skifz Asc?d. It even had a chance of coming in first.

Glorfindel's heart tightened at such a formidable sight. He was still floating in the water while Melody and the rest of the Elves were all standing on the battle fortress at least 5 meters above water level. It formed a psychological pressure on Glorfindel because he had to look up at everyone else, while they looked down on him.

As the battle fortress drew near, Glorfindel realised that powering such a behemoth should be a major problem. He carefully observed the water below the fortress and could instantly feel a summoning formation engraved into the bottom of the floating platform carrying the fortress.

The thing that the formation summoned was a 3rd rank legendary creature that only existed in the ocean - a whale shark. It was extremely uncomfortable in fresh water, but was still diligently pulling the fortress along with a vine rope. This should be the result from the combined effort of Paul + the Dwarves + Elven magic + the magical materials collected by Rivendell over thousands of years.

The water fortress stopped a kilometer away from Glorfindel. His face looked ashen. He didn't expect Melody to be strong enough to detect his presence so quickly.

He could've ran away if he was in the forest, but he was in water! Plus, there's no way he could just run away the moment he was found. His ego wouldn't allow it!

Melody casted a voice amplifying spell on herself and called out to Glorfindel.

"Welcome to Dawn City, Lord Glorfindel."

Since he was found, Glorfindel naturally couldn't keep up the pretense. He dispersed his disguise and casted a divine art to float above the water. The divine art consumed a significant amount of MP, but at least he wouldn't be looked down upon by everyone. He was really unhappy about that.

"Did you bring them here to welcome me, Melody? I'm afraid the ceremony isn't grand enough for my liking."

Glorfindel still spoke in a condescending tone. Well, he was powerful enough to be condescending.

A human male beside Melody suddenly laughed and said.

"You guessed wrong, Glorfindel. No one's here to welcome you. We brought the whole population of Dawn City here to let them witness a historic moment. We want them to see for themselves the might of the Holy Beast protecting us. We want them to know that, even without the protection of Sire Vilya, a cruel fate still awaits the foolish creatures that try to invade the city!"

"Foolish creatures?" Glorfindel couldn't help but laugh in anger when he heard that. He stared at the man and spoke sinisterly, "I remember your name should be Seaman, right? Melody's Protector? Since you're no kin of mine, I don't need to hold back. You will hang from a tree!"

Sheyan laughed and replied.

"Such bad manners. But don't worry, I will be lenient when I deal with you, to show respect to your Elven bloodline."

Glorfindel was about to say more when he felt an indescribable pressure from the deep water below his feet. The next instant, a giant tentacle emerged and whipped at his waist. Glorfindel only had the time to block and was sent flying by the force.

Glorfindel glided above the lake for 30 meters like a surfer before he could steady himself and flew back up. The tentacle kept itself upright on the water and bent its tip towards Glorfindel like a finger. A long, thin piece of frostbolt instantly shot towards Glorfindel.

Glorfindel's right palm emitted a faint green glow. He used the palm to casually deflect away the frostbolt, and said mockingly.

"Petty tricks."

As soon as he said that, another tentacle appeared. Both tentacles instantly cast frostbolts together. It put some pressure on Glorfindel, but he could still handle it.

However, everyone knew an octopus normally had 8 tentacles!

If things kept developing in this manner, he would eventually have to deal with 8 tentacles and 8 frostbolts at the same time! For Glorfindel, he could deal with 2 pretty easily. 3 was his limit. 4 or more, he would have to take a beating!

Therefore, Glorfindel laughed and said.

"I know your plan, Melody! This place is close to the Mines of Moria. You think that you can win just because you persuaded the Ocean-freak of Moria to help you? Dream on!"

Glorfindel's body wouldn't stop flashing as he activated the spells on his equipment and accessories. His golden hair rose like a burning fire. The power of nature around his body was so thick it could be seen with naked eyes.

He raised both hands towards the sky, crossing them at the wrists. Then, he vanished all of a sudden and reappeared in front of the Ocean-freak of Moria. He pulled his hands apart with force. A crossmark over 10 meters long appeared in the air and slashed towards the Ocean-freak of Moria!

The cross looked like a mark that was forcefully ripped apart in the atmosphere, as if space and time were cut open!

The cross hit the Ocean-freak of Moria with a blast that sent tremors across the whole lake. The Ocean-freak emitted a long howl as one of its tentacles was severed at the middle. The severed tentacle was at least 6 meters long. It spurted out blue-coloured blood, flipped a few times in the air, and dropped into the water heavily. The waves it cause was mixed with a strong smell of blood.

"HAHAHAHA!" Glorfindel stood tall and laughed menacingly. "Is this the Holy Beast you were so proud of, Melody? For you to depend on something like this is a disgrace to the Elven race."

Glorfindel once again thanked Fate. He was racking his brain for a way to display his might to the Elves, and here came Melody bringing along with her all the Elves to watch his performance. He was having a headache because he couldn't injure the Elves directly, and here came Melody again sending out a "Holy Beast" for him to trample on!

But for some reason, he couldn't see any trace of disappointment from the faces of the Elves. All he could see in their eyes were surprise!

"This is bad!" Glorfindel abruptly turned around and found another giant tentacle behind him. The tentacle was dark black in colour and the suckers on it continuously wiggled. It gave off the terrifying feeling of having unlimited strength. It looked as if it had been waiting there for a long time.

If the tentacle had wished to attack Glorfindel, he wouldn't even know what hit him!

It wasn't until Glorfindel turned around that the tentacle whipped at him. It was just an ordinary lash that looked rather slow, but to Glorfindel's horror, none of the 9 magic spells and 8 secret arts he threw out could help him avoid being hit!
