Chapter 505 - It’s Just a Friendly Match, Tree Monarch, Why Are You Crying? (Part 2)
The next day, #18 recovered and summoned the Tree Monarch’s heroic spirit again. The Tree Monarch’s heroic spirit abruptly sat up from where she lay on the ground, gasping for air and looking disheveled.
W-what happened?
“I... I lost?” The Tree Monarch finally remembered that the moment the coin landed, before they could react, they seemed to have been swallowed up by a terrifying attack.
Outsiders might not have noticed, but the Tree Monarch recalled that, in the split second before the attack landed, she and her familiars had mustered a desperate resistance. However, the attack wasn’t just one, and its power was horrifying.
Even with their resistance, they couldn’t escape annihilation. The Tree Monarch’s pupils constricted.
What kind of monstrous familiar was that?
She was bewildered. Never had she imagined that she’d be instantly defeated. Recalling her bold claim at the start that she’d make Lu Ran’s familiar cry, the Tree Monarch felt her scalp tingle and her face burn.
What... What was I saying? But the main issue is, why was Lu Ran’s new familiar so absurd? It was nurtured by the timekeeper? What kind of outrageous fortune is this? Could it be that my summoning was also related to this so-called timekeeper?
As the Tree Monarch’s mind raced, she turned to #18, who was looking at her sympathetically.
#18 said, “Senior Tree Monarch, you’re back. It’s my fault. My power limited you. Don’t be sad. Baby Cloud was hatched and raised by Manager Ying, the Time Dragon’s kin, who also helped it evolve. It’s normal for you to be suppressed by its power of Time.”
The Tree Monarch exhaled. “A loss is a loss. No need to comfort me. I admit, your master, Lu Ran, has indeed grown much stronger. He’s no longer the rookie who relied on external forces to obtain legacies. Even if I weren’t restricted by you and were able to fight him at my level 6 peak, I’d likely still struggle to win.”
#18 looked at her with a mix of resentment and sorrow. “Senior Tree Monarch, there’s good news and bad news. Which do you want first?”
