Chapter 550 - #18: My Turn!
Brother?
A flicker of surprise crossed Hel’s eyes, but upon hearing Lu Ran mention Ice Emperor, she didn’t show much excitement.
A faint smile curved her lips as she murmured to herself, “I never expected that useless brother of mine to actually accomplish something. I thought he’d just barely survive, but he actually managed to revive me in this form.”
Lu Ran was taken aback.
Hold on, even if you’re telling the truth, is that really how you should talk about Ice Emperor?
Lu Ran suddenly felt that the relationship between these siblings wasn’t quite what he had imagined. But then he thought of Fang Lan, his childhood tormentor, and instantly understood. If not for the fact that he had surpassed her in strength, Lu Ran suspected Fang Lan would have bullied him relentlessly.
“Time power, faith power, soul power, quasi-Legendary, Legendary...”
After a moment of revival, Hel slowly raised her hand, quickly grasping the composition of her current form. Her existence now was similar to a faith-projected spirit woven from time and faith energies. She was merely a fragment of history plucked from the past.
Yet, even for a Mythical elementalist like her, this method was astonishing. She turned her gaze to Lu Ran, finding it hard to believe such a feat had been achieved by a mere Legendary beastmaster.
Hel said, “Regardless, thank you. My incompetent brother must have caused you a lot of trouble. Even though I feel like less than a tenth of my power remains, in this form, if there’s anything I can assist you with, just ask. But first, I’d like to know where he is.”
Lu Ran replied, “Most likely working hard to earn a living. After all, reviving and sustaining a heroic spirit isn’t something a small-time Legendary like me can afford. The resources required, like the blood of a Time god, are astronomically expensive and incredibly hard to obtain.”
Hel fell silent, not doubting his words. Reviving an ancient legend like her would naturally come at a tremendous cost. If it didn’t, that would be the real surprise.
