Chapter 222 Sorry, I'm Late...
When Selvih heard that she was a bit scared, anyway the legend of Silutop was so widely known that it was passed down by word of mouth for generations, after more than 10,000 years there are still people who know him.
Selvih of course knew Silutop very well because she had gone through a lot of documents about this person. The Dark-Elf royal family also constantly remembered Silutop as a legend that terrified countless kingdoms.
She frowned, although she had recovered a bit of her ability to fight, she knew that she couldn't win against Silutop.
At this moment, Silutop's voice rang out: "Have you thought it through? You should know, I can aid you in ruling this kingdom for another 5,000 years, and even the ancient kingdoms won't dare to interfere in your rule."
After saying that, he glanced at Raven and Bryen, the two of them shivering with fear when Silutop looked at them. No one would have thought that the two representatives of the two ancient kingdoms would be frightened by a single glance from another person.
However, Silutop only glanced at Raven and Bryen for only about a second, then he looked at the vortex enveloping Selvih, and said: "Think about it, you just have to tell me the source of the energy you are using, I can help you rule this kingdom for another 5,000 years and I can also help you destroy all your enemies."
Selvih knew that Silutop had reached the limit of his lifespan, if he couldn't break through the current limit he would die of old age.
She knew that Silutop had reached level 99, which was the highest level this world could hold. After breaking through level 99, one could leave this world to a higher-level world.
However, although it was easy in theory, it was extremely difficult to achieve. Level 99 was the level that had killed countless geniuses, and horrible existences. They all reached level 99, however, they couldn't break through this limit so they could only wait for their lifespan to be gradually consumed.
That's right, so many horrible existences in this world had reached level 99; there was only one level left before they could break through the limit, and jump out of this fog-covered world.
However, that 1 level was very far away, they were like people who are at the bottom of a cliff looking up at the sky. They could see it but they would never be able to touch it.
In the past hundreds of thousands of years, from ancient times until now, the number of people who had reached level 100 was extremely small, they were less than 10. However, the number of people stuck at level 99 is extremely large, they numbered in the thousands.
Silutop was among them, he had been stuck at level 99 for over 10,000 years. Now, when he saw a powerful energy coming from Selvih, he immediately recognized the opportunity to break through the limit.
Savuo was now in pain because his arm was severed, and he was very angry in his heart. He thought that Silutop would help him defeat Selvih, it never occurred to him that Silutop would want to cooperate with that bitch.
Savuo wanted to speak but he didn't dare to, he was afraid that he would lose his head if he spoke.
Savuo looked at Duranka and said: "Let's go, let's run! If we continue to stay here, Selvih will definitely cooperate with Silutop and destroy us."
Duranka glanced at Raven, at which Raven nodded and said, "Run! I don't want to stay here either."
"But…" Duranka stammered, his gaze drifting to Bryen.
Raven followed Duranka's gaze; he saw Bryen sitting on the ground gasping for breath, blood still dripping out from her mouth and nose.
Suddenly, an idea popped into his head. Raven laughed and said, "Let's go!"
"Hah?"
"I said… let's go, ignore that bitch!" Raven said, his voice extremely cold.
Duranka took a deep breath, and immediately maneuvered the silent glass ball to leave this place. He was only the king of a small kingdom, he couldn't disobey the orders of someone from the Ancient Kingdom.
Besides, he knew Raven's thoughts, he also knew that Savuo had failed, and there was no point in staying in this place.
Bryen looked up at the sky, when she saw the glass ball moving slowly without making any noise and escaping. She became extremely angry because she realized that Raven was abandoning her.
However, Bryen was no longer able to do anything else, the mana in her body was in turmoil as the curse magic was cut off.
She couldn't even talk. The other 20 assassins also seemed to have lost their ability to move, so they could not help Bryen escape.
Bryen sighed, she no longer felt angry instead she felt extremely desperate. She sat still as if she was waiting for death.
At this moment, Selvih took a deep breath, she felt that the energy in her body was low and took out another card. She looked at the card and breathed a sigh of relief, she mumbled, "I Hope this card can help me finish things off."
Silutop didn't hear Selvih's response and sighed: "Aizzz, I hope you don't regret your decision. Then I'll just kill you and torture your soul until you tell me the secret of the new energy."
Even though Selvih was a descendant of Silutop, he didn't care, what he cared about now was breaking through the current limit, or else he would die.
Silutop suddenly stretched out his fist in the air, Savuo's crystal ball suddenly stopped, and it was unable to move. Silutop said coldly, "Did I allow you to leave?"
Savuo who was in the crystal ball was scared, he shouted: "Ancestor, I am your descendant, you have not kept your promise, can't you forgive me?"
"Descendant?" Silutop sneered, his face full of contempt and said: "If I can break through the limit then my lifespan will be greatly increased, then, do you think I will need a descendant?"
Savuo trembled upon hearing that, not only Savuo, but Duraxi, Duranka and Raven were all scared. In front of Silutop, they didn't have any ability to fight back, Savuo fearfully said: "Silutop, you can't kill us."
Savuo said while pointing at Raven: "Do you know who he is? He is the prince of the Ancient Kingdom of Shareny, if you dare touch him, his father will not forgive you."
Savuo tried to bring the Ancient Kingdom out to threaten Silutop, so that he wouldn't kill them.
However, Silutop didn't seem to be scared, he said calmly: "Oh! So, you are the son of the boy Ratylous."
Raven and Savuo suddenly felt fear. It must be known that Ratyous is Raven's father, who was also the King of the Ancient Kingdom of Shareny.
Even the King of the High Kingdom wouldn't dare to call Ratylous's real name directly, however, being able to do that meant that Silutop was not afraid of Ratylous.
Silutop even called Ratylous a 'boy'.
Silutop said: "If Ratylous boy meets me he would call me 'Elder brother', you... are not qualified to negotiate with me."
Silutop's words were like the voice of the judge who had sentenced them to death. All of them were scared but they couldn't escape because Silutop used magic to confine the surrounding space.
Silutop noticed Savuo's laughter, he looked towards the tornado, he waved his other hand, and brown light fell to the ground.
After that, the ground shook like an extremely violent earthquake, the whole kingdom shook, all the buildings also began to collapse, and ashes covered the kingdom.
Suddenly, the ground around Selvih cracked, and countless stone pillars pierced the ground, they were more than a thousand meters high, and more than 10 meters in diameter.
The 5 stone pillars instantly pierced Selvih's fire tornado. The fire tornado and the 5 stone pillars collided with each other, and the slashes produced by the whirlwind repeatedly slashed the 5 stone pillars.
However, it was unknown what kind of stone the 5 stone pillars were made of as Selvih's wind blades could only leave scratches on those 5 stone pillars and were unable to cut them.
The fire vortex was stopped by the stone pillars, the speed decreased and then quickly dissipated. Countless fire-bearing stones fell, but Silutop just waved his hand and sent a tremendous gust of wind that blew them away.
The difference was too great, even though Selvih's class had been evolved from SSR to UR and she could use void energy in addition to the new powers she gained when she passed the Challenge Gate.
she had just been cursed by Bryen's magic, so her strength was reduced by more than 80%, besides, she couldn't use her energy normally due to Bryen's curse magic.
Selvih stood alone on the ground looking at Silutop, however, her face did not show any fear but only determination.
Silutop looked directly into Selvih's eyes and said coldly: "I will give you one more chance, hand over the energy you are using, or die."
It seemed that in Silutop's eyes there was no kinship, descendant or anything else. Right now, he just wanted to break through the limit, reach level 100, and get out of this fog-covered world.
Selvih straightened her back, she was like a black swan, full of pride and without fear. In her hand she held a card, it seemed that it would be the card that would help her turn the fight that she seemed to be losing in her favor.
Silutop shook his head and said, "I gave you three chances, that's enough."
While saying that, Silutop reached out his hand towards Selvih, a huge amount of pressure appeared and made her unable to move. Selvih was immobile she currently felt like she was being crushed by an invisible hand that was squeezing her nonstop.
Silutop of course didn't want to kill Selvih right away; he just wanted to scare her and get the information about the new energy source.
After all, using magic to store souls takes a lot of energy and resources, even Silutop was not 100% sure it would be possible to retain Selvih's soul.
Besides, this new energy source was very important to him, it determined whether he could break through the current limit or not. He didn't dare to bet on the small chance that he could trap Selvih's soul.
That's why, even if he could easily kill Selvih in the blink of an eye he wouldn't do so.
Selvih suddenly activated the card in her hand, although Silutop saw it,it was already too late to stop it.
At this moment, Selvih was startled when she felt a familiar warmth, even if she died, she would forever remember this warmth and scent.
Hikaru appeared, hugging Selvih, and whispering in her ear: "Sorry… I'm late."
