The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing

#343 - Mabel: I am sweating all over in the hottest weather and my hands and feet are cold. Can the

"Wait, wait... hold on a second! Zunzun, you never actually planned to defeat the Demon Flame Dragon, did you!? Really!?"

"Hey, so you weren't considering anything at all!?"

"The Demon Flame Dragon is imbued with the power of a god. How are we supposed to defeat it!?"

Alicia and the others cried out in unison.

The Demon Flame Dragon had now completely fused with the Divine Giant, and the air was shimmering slightly due to the heat of the flames. Its already intense and scorching flames were now coated with a layer of blue light. Its body had also grown much larger than before, almost a hundred meters tall!

"Don't worry, we have the Frozen God Sword."

"That's right! The legendary..."

"It's overwhelmingly advantageous against the Demon Flame Dragon... What's with that expression!?"

Edgar and Leica looked at Mabel and saw that she was trembling like a newborn fawn.

"Please, pull yourself together!"

"Aren't you supposed to be from the legendary Ice Clan!?"

The two shouted at the cowering Mabel.

Alicia couldn't stand it any longer. She said to her childhood friends, who were yelling at the girl, "Hey, you two are going too far!"

"Mama..."

"Mama!?"

Mabel started calling for her mama again and quickly lowered her head, muttering to herself, "It's so noisy, are they idiots~ Scary things are scary... with spiky hair and a 7-3 split... I used to be a proper knight."

"P-please, at least speak loud enough for everyone to hear!"

Her retort lacked any force; her scolding sounded more like whining.

Leica and Edgar immediately rejected it.

"Zunzun, that Frozen God Sword doesn't seem to be working!"

"This is bad. What should we do!?"

"It's not that it's not working, you spiky-haired idiot."

"S-so, if you have something to say, please say it clearly!"

The entire plain was in chaos, with everyone constantly voicing their opinions, creating a cacophony that made everyone's heads spin and was extremely annoying. At this moment, the elven beauty suddenly shouted.

"Don't panic!"

"T-Teacher...? Do you have a plan!?"

"No, I don't have any good ideas."

The expressions on everyone's faces turned disappointed.

"But Zunzun definitely does." The elven beauty looked at the confident Zunzun and said, "He's already calculated the Divine Giant's recovery energy consumption. How could he not have thought about how to deal with the Demon Flame Dragon after releasing it?"

"But..."

"Not defeating it doesn't mean not resolving it, right, Zunzun?"

Everyone looked at Zunzun again.

"Hehe, Tsui understands me best."

The feeling of being unconditionally trusted was very pleasant, and Zunzun happily explained to them.

"I'm actually a little worried that the Demon Flame Dragon isn't strong enough. You haven't forgotten what I said, right? In order to return, I hope there will be a constant collision of forces, only in this way it is possible to distort the space until it breaks. After breaking the space, Yangjie and I will leave this world together with the Demon Flame Dragon. In other words, there's no need to defeat it at all."

"I see!"

"Is that so? Then I'm relieved."

Leica and Edgar breathed a sigh of relief.

Alicia said uneasily, "Even if you leave this world with the Demon Flame Dragon, it will still harm the world you're in, right? In that case—"

"Don't worry, someone will deal with it then." Zunzun said with a somewhat sinister smile, "This is a gift I specially prepared for someone, a return gift to thank him for sending me to this world. He will definitely gratefully accept it. Hehehe..."

Seeing this smile, everyone had the same thought in their hearts.

That was never to offend Zunzun.

What a deep hatred, to actually use the world-destroying Demon Flame Dragon, and even an enhanced version, as a gift.

"At that time, Yangjie, Tsui, and I will use our maximum power to collide with the Demon Flame Dragon, striving to distort the space and take it away at the same time."

"In an instant...?"

"It feels like it's feasible."

Leica and Edgar nodded in succession.

Alicia suddenly remembered something and quickly said, "By the way, what about that control thing when you get close?"

"No problem, both Tsui and Yangjie can eliminate mental attacks."

"I heard that Demon Flame scales can nullify attacks, right?"

"Damage can be inflicted by attacking while burning."

"Eh—"

"This has already been verified."

Zunzun smiled and gave a thumbs up.

Alicia and the other two couldn't help but twitch their mouths. The dragon's breath is an instant-kill attack, so normally, they wouldn't recklessly fight the Demon Flame Dragon. But they even figured out the opponent's defense...

"Speaking of which, Zunzun and Teacher have defeated the Demon Flame Dragon before, and without using the Frozen God Sword!?"

"Although Zunzun defeated the main body, I only added the final bit of damage... But this time we don't have to defeat the Demon Flame Dragon, so no matter what, the Frozen God Sword is not needed."

"Is that so... The Frozen God Sword is indeed not needed..."

As the others said that the Frozen God Sword wasn't needed, Mabel's heart gradually froze, and the sword in her hand made a creaking sound.

"Huh, wait a minute."

Leica suddenly realized a problem, and this problem was very important.

"—What if we don't break the space?"

"... Uh."

"I'm saying, Zunzun, you didn't think about this, did you...? Hey, hey, hey, don't suddenly fall silent at this time, give us some kind of plan!"

Zunzun's silence made Alicia and the others feel anxious again.

"It's okay, there's an old saying in my hometown: 'The boat will right itself when it reaches the bridge.' Don't worry."

"No, no, no, we can't relax at this time!"

The feasibility they just discussed was based on the collision between Zunzun and the others and the Demon Flame Dragon being able to break the space, but what if they couldn't break the space? Wouldn't that be completely hopeless?

"As long as we succeed, that's all that matters."

"Eh...?"

"The newest and fastest novels are on 69shuba.top!"

"At times like this, success is all that matters."

Daoqi Yangjie stared at the huge Demon Flame Dragon. He said with utmost calmness, "I also have moments of crisis. It was in the final stage of the Martian Warrior, when my health was less than half a bar. Once I died, I would completely fail and have to start all over again, which would consume a lot of energy. In that case, wouldn't it be better to clear the level with this half bar of health? We've already reached this point, so even if we die, we have to clear the level. Isn't that a normal thing to do?"

No, no, no, it's not normal to desperately clear the game.

Zunzun couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

However, changing it to the reality where the Demon Flame Dragon threatens everyone, they have to desperately try, even if they die, they have to break the space.

The game theory instead convinced Alicia and the others, and they stopped overthinking and aimed to break the space.

... It should be like this.

But when Leica and the others looked at the huge Demon Flame Dragon, they couldn't help but swallow and said uneasily, "Can we win against the strengthened Demon Flame Dragon?"

"We will win... um, um, um!"

"You can't just say that!"

Zunzun grabbed the elven beauty and covered her mouth to prevent her from setting a flag. Whether it was the Crimson Demon Clan's manual or most novels and anime, you must never set a flag at this time.

Ignoring the girl's shyness, Zunzun said to the others, "Who do you think I am? I am Zunzun, the only Zunzun in heaven and earth! You just need to believe in me, so... do you believe in me?"

He looked at the others with burning eyes.

Leica was the first to sigh and say, "At this point, what's the point of believing or not?"

"That's right, we're already on a pirate ship and have to contribute, right?" Edgar followed closely behind.

Alicia and the elven beauty didn't speak, but they looked at him seriously, indicating that they would believe him.

Suddenly, the flames surged again.

Edgar said nervously, "Is it going to start moving? Are we going to go, Teacher!?"

"No, not yet." The elven beauty stopped everyone and shouted loudly, "If we defeat it in an incomplete state, it will recover due to the chaotic divine power. We have to wait until it is fully resurrected—prepare, wait!"

Everyone responded one after another, while remaining vigilant to prevent the Demon Flame Dragon from attacking.

The elven beauty ran over and opened her arms to Zunzun.

"... What?"

"Hug me."

"Pfft!"

It's not Zunzun's fault for misunderstanding, but that word has another meaning, and fortunately, the others didn't understand. Daoqi Yangjie was only interested in games, so it didn't cause any misunderstanding among the others.

"B-because I need to conserve my strength, so I can only ask you... Don't you have a fairy spirit? Hurry up."

"Wait, don't ride on me!"

Zunzun pushed away the elven beauty who was pouncing on him, but he wasn't a heartless straight man and put his arm around her slender yet resilient waist.

The girl's shyness already explained everything.

Afterward, Mabel said with a bright smile, "So, I guess there's nothing I can do, right?"

"... Eh?"

"No way!?"

"What a bright smile."

The three were dumbfounded by Mabel, the descendant of the Ice Clan who was supposed to be the main force and wanted to escape the battle. However, considering that the Frozen God Sword wasn't really needed next, they didn't say anything more.

"Then, in order not to disturb you..."

Mabel skipped away, wanting to leave the battlefield.

However, the Demon Flame Dragon kept staring at her, or rather, at the Frozen God Sword in her arms. Its uncontrollable flames kept flickering, and even though it hadn't fully recovered, its emotions of resentment and hatred were clearly conveyed.

"It's watching, it's watching..."

"It seems to hate the Ice Clan quite a bit..."

Even Zunzun, who was defeated and sealed again after it had just broken the seal, didn't have such strong hatred.

"Oh, oh, oh, is that so?"

Daoqi Yangjie said as if he understood, "In that case, let Mabel be the bait. That way, the strategy should become a little easier."

"Hei Mu, you..."

"How ruthless."

The air paused. This extremely straight man's statement made Mabel completely dumbfounded. Hearing this sentence, she trembled all over, sweating all over her body and her hands and feet were cold in the hot weather. Will the descendant of the Ice Clan ever be okay!?
