Of course, Lan Jue knew it was because she hadn't used Captus to its full potential.
Just then, the young woman lifted her head to look at Zeus-1 in the sky.
Zeus -1 wasn't going to hold back. Mika had already received word from Xiaosu that the Barber had been killed by this woman.
Seeing that Lan Jue had been flung through the air, Zeus -1 fired without hesitation.
A blinding blue light flashed through the air!
Mika knew the blast would hit Lan Jue, but Lan Jue was a hundred meters away. With his level of cultivation he would be able to avoid most of the damage.
Boom! A terrible explosion rocked Lan Jue, sending him tumbling through the air.
The earth beneath Zeus -1's blast had caved in, and the buildings around it had been vaporized.
Lan Jue's body shimmered with a red light. Captus had automatically protected its master, but even so she was thrown a thousand meters away.
At the same time, a tinge of dark red appeared in the sky. Shortly after, a glaring dark red light descended from the sky like a river of magma pouring down from the sky, falling directly into the core of the explosion of the main cannon.
The Gourmet had arrived at some point in the air. He held the Seamstress's hand, his face grave and serious.
The crater Zeus-1 had created was now an enormous pool of lava. It was dark red and bubbling, and the air around it was filled with bubbling lava. The air was filled with it, and the air around it was filled with bubbles.
Lan Jue rose to his feet and hovered in the air.
Watching Zeus -1's cannon and the Gourmet's assault, Lan Jue didn't know why, but his heart felt heavy. He had a feeling that the young woman wouldn't be so easily killed.
"Coffee Master, Bartender, gather everyone and head into space to meet up with Majesty." Lan Jue used her communicator to contact the other two battleships.
This beautiful young woman had appeared.
It was definitely not a coincidence. Moreover, he had already faintly felt a sense of familiarity from their previous exchange.
The light below gradually disappeared, and the energy ripples spread out. Only the magma pool remained.
The beautiful girl disappeared.
He disappeared without a trace.
It was as if she had really been swallowed by the lava pool.
The Driver approached Lan Jue's side.
He said in a low voice, "Have you figured out where it came from?
Paragon?
But it didn't seem like it!
She doesn't have any Law aura fluctuations on her. "
Lan Jue frowned. "I don't know either, but I have a feeling …"
Just as he said this, the magma below suddenly made a soft "pu" sound, and then a figure rushed into the sky.
The beautiful girl seemed to be somewhat annoyed.
Her pretty face was covered with frost.
There was not even the slightest injury on her body, not even a trace of lava.
She shot a fierce glare at Lan Jue, then sent a palm strike in the direction of the Gourmet. At the same time, a blinding purple light erupted from her body, and a powerful current of energy shot toward Zeus -1.
Zeus -1's shields were at full power, but the force of the purple light was too much for it to handle.
It seemed to lose control of itself and was flung far away.
Fortunately, its shields were much stronger than before.
Mika forced Zeus -1 to accelerate as it was hurled away from the purple light. That was how he managed to avoid further damage.
The Gourmet flung the Seamstress away. His hands formed a circle in front of him, and the air around them was filled with an ash-gray light. He thrust his palms forward, and an ash-gray light swirled around them. It collided with the purple light of the Paragon's attack.
There was no rumbling or rumbling as the purple palm spread out. The Gourmet's Domain of Protogenia melted like snow in the face of the purple light.
Even protogenia was corroded?
What kind of power was this?
The Gourmet's face changed.
He shouted in a low voice, and the greyish-white light on his body became even more intense. At the same time, his entire body also turned greyish-white. In an instant, life and death changed, and a crown appeared on his head. He slapped out seven times in a row, and only then did the purplish-red palm print completely dissipate.
But the Paragon's palm clenched into a fist, and thrust forward.
This time there was no purple light, but the Gourmet was sent tumbling through the air like he'd been struck by lightning.
The ash-gray light around him began to disperse.
This …
Even a Paragon like the Gourmet wasn't a match for her. Just how strong was she?
Just at this moment, a shocking rainbow shot over from afar. A piercing white light contained boundless killing intent. Wherever it passed, the air would be torn apart. With an ear-piercing whistling sound, it arrived in front of the beautiful girl in an instant.
Surprise flashed in the Paragon's eyes, and she threw a punch of her own.
Boom! The white light scattered, and turned into countless blades of sword intent. This time it was aimed at the Paragon's body.
The Paragon snorted, and the purple light around her flared to life. It deflected the sword intent, and at the same time, she stamped her right foot in the air. The entire area around her trembled violently.
Suddenly, the Sword Will collapsed, and a figure staggered back in the air. A white sword light flashed in the air and slashed apart the horrifying vibrating aura. Only then did she stabilize her figure.
Wasn't it the Pharmacist who'd arrived just in time?
The white light in front of her was Occisus.
The Driver watched from a distance, and his eyes widened in shock.
Lan Jue, the Pharmacist, and the Gourmet had taken turns to fight the Paragon, and yet they were all at a disadvantage. She didn't even look like she was going all out.
What kind of power was this?
In terms of Paragon strength, this was at least the second stage of Reflection of Heaven and Earth, right?
Was she even stronger?
Lan Jue shot the Driver a meaningful look, indicating that he should board the ship first. She herself flew to the Pharmacist's side.
Captus and Occisus flickered with light as they faced the Paragon.
The Paragon was angry, and she glared at Lan Jue with a pout. "I didn't eat you. Why did you hit me?"
Lan Jue scowled. Why did this woman have to measure everything in terms of food?
"Who are you?" Lan Jue asked.
The young woman was taken aback. Her beautiful eyes revealed a thoughtful expression. "I am the Violet Princess," she said, her voice serious.
"The Violet Princess?" Lan Jue looked at her in confusion.
Princess was a name that only existed in a few places in the human world. For example, the royal families of the Western Alliance.
"What is it?
In human memory, isn't the most noble word for a woman 'princess'?
Isn't that right? "The Paragon's voice was much more fluent than before.
Lan Jue's eyes narrowed. She frowned at the Paragon. "You're not human?"
"I am, and I'm not," she answered.
"I'm going to eat you."
She had been serious all this time, but as soon as she finished speaking, she opened her mouth …
Her jaws widened to reveal rows of razor-sharp teeth. A terrifying aura of purple and red erupted from her mouth, threatening to engulf Lan Jue and the Pharmacist.
If her previous attacks were said to be casual, then this time around, it was completely different.
In the blink of an eye, her mouth had expanded to over a hundred meters in diameter. Within the huge purplish-red vortex, there was an aura that seemed even more terrifying than a black hole.
Lan Jue's heart was filled with the familiar sensation.
A grey light descended from the sky, and a series of bubbles appeared in front of Lan Jue and the Pharmacist.
The Gourmet dropped from the sky to appear beside Lan Jue and the Pharmacist.
His hands kept changing the shape of his hands, and behind him, a huge shadow of light appeared.
That light figure was humanoid, and one could vaguely see that he was wearing a luxurious black robe. His long gray hair flowed down his back, and his robe was covered with countless faint silver light patterns.
Majestic, dignified, and filled with death.
This was …
The Statue of Hades!
A second-level Paragon's Reflection of Heaven and Earth!
However, the Gourmet's Reflection of Heaven and Earth wasn't clear enough. He hadn't reached that level yet, and was forced to use it.
The figure behind him struck out with a palm, and in that instant it felt as if heaven and earth were being turned upside down.
The purplish-red mouth suddenly tilted and bit down on the gray palm shadow that had been sent out.
Instantly, the grey disappeared, but so did the purplish-red color of the maw.
"Retreat!" The Gourmet growled. He gathered up both Lan Jue and the Gourmet, and flew away.
There was a flash of light, and the Paragon appeared out of thin air.
"You can't leave, Yummy."
She murmured and then moved her hands on both sides of her body. A circle of red light appeared out of thin air and instantly swept towards the three of them. It was like a ring of imprisonment, covering their bodies.
The Pharmacist bit the tip of her tongue, and spat out a mouthful of blood. Occisus glowed with white light, and the runes on its blade flickered.
She slashed through the ring of light with a single stroke.
The Gourmet and the Pharmacist once again dodged the attack.
Just then, Zeus's Cannon One fired again at the Violet Princess.
This time everyone saw how the Violet Princess withstood Zeus's attack.
She waved her hand as if swatting a fly, and a shield of purple light sprang up in front of her. The cannon's blast shattered the Princess, but it didn't do her any harm. All it did was slow her down a little.
With the speed she'd displayed, she could have dodged the attack, but she chose not to. Instead, she took it head-on. How confident was she?
