After transforming into a dragon, Sarlayan's various physical abilities increased significantly.
This giant blow was aimed at Theradras' left hand that threw the boulder.
The sharp Quel'Sera fell with great force, breaking through the rocky skin on Theradre's body, and chopped off the boulder-throwing arm on her left side at shoulder level.
"Ho! Mortal! You are looking for death!"
In pain, Theradras repeated her old trick of activating the Dust Stance, trying to force Sarlayan out of the melee range.
But this time, Sarlayan refused to back down.
His mouth and nose were blocked by the surrounding golden dragon scales to prevent dust from entering his respiratory tract.
He forcibly stabilized his lower body to resist the repulsive force, and allowed the fury from Goldrinn to push his anger to the critical point in the shortest possible time.
The blessing of the angry state made Sarlayan stand firmly beside Theradras, no matter how much she farts, he can't push her.
As for the fear spell that followed... The angry Sarlayan was still worried that he was overheated, but Theradras' spell helped cool him down in disguise.
"The Wrath of Nature!"
Since he was temporarily frozen in place and unable to get closer, Sarlayan simply stretched out his left hand and cast the only natural spell he knew.
With the blessing of becoming a dragon and full of rage, this druid's most basic spells exerted extremely astonishing power.
It happened that the root entanglement spells of the dryads and the forest guardians temporarily restrained Theradras in place, and the extremely fast green light ball hit the left side of Theradras's head, blasting it into a ball of rubble.
.
Although the target was not the mastermind in the center, Theradras was severely hurt by this attack.
All her movements were forced to pause, and her huge body stumbled back uncontrollably.
But this is the limit of what Sarlayan can do.
Facing this kind of earth elemental creature whose physical defense is so high that it explodes, the most that Sarlayan, who is suppressed by his level, can do is chop off Theradras' arm with relatively weak defense, or steal a chicken and give her a hard blow.
The real core output still depends on Lunara, who also has a legendary template.
Valeera had already retreated from the battle circle first, and all her attacks could not cause substantial damage to Theradras.
While Theradras was entangled by Sarlayan, Valeera quietly approached the island in the center of the cave, where Zaltar's dull-eyed soul stood in the center of the island.
After coming back to her senses, the angry Theradras once again manipulated the power of the earth, and the gravity suppression felt by Sarlayan doubled again.
Fortunately, Sarlayan was not wearing heavy armor, otherwise even with the dragon's physical bonus, he would most likely be pressed to the ground and unable to move.
"Mortals, kneel down before me!"
A huge boulder from zero distance hit him head-on. Sarlayan raised Quel'Sera with difficulty and tried his best to barely block the attack.
His arms made an overwhelmed clicking sound under the weight of the powerful force, and the legs supporting his body were also under tremendous pressure and were trembling constantly, but they were never completely crushed by Theradras.
Gritting his teeth to temporarily suppress the severe pain, the strong-minded Sarlayan ignored Lunala's orders to stop and used the last remaining strength to forcefully strike out with a counterattack.
"You want me to kneel down? Do you want the keys? How many keys?"
"drink!!"
"boom!"
This sword not only shattered the boulder in Theradras's hand, but also cut a deep mark on the abdomen of her stone body.
Although she still failed to break through the defense, the power contained in this sword made Theradras stagger back.
This step determines the outcome of the entire battle.
Lunala, who recalled the spear, jumped high into the air. The entire deer body was like a straightened long bow. After charging up in mid-air, she threw the spear again.
"Bah!"
The collapse of her posture prevented Theradras from having time to dodge. Although she tried to raise her right hand to block the attack, the spear thrown by Lunala with all her strength still penetrated her arm and blasted into her main brain.
"Boom!"
The huge body of the Earth Princess fell backwards, and she died on the spot without even leaving her last words.
The 4 times gravity experienced by everyone present dissipated with Theradras's death, and several dryads with weak physiques leaned against their companions in shock, gasping for air.
"Huh~"
Sarlayan also breathed a sigh of relief and released his draconic transformation.
His hands were still holding the weapon tightly. He knew his family's affairs. Sarlayan's arms were fractured to varying degrees. This kind of skeletal trauma cannot be cured by self-healing ability in a short time.
.
Freed from the trouble of gravity, Valeela attached the leaves obtained from Sarlayan to the surface of Zalta's soul body.
Under the pouring of natural power from the same origin as Remulos, Zalta, whose eyes were dull, gradually regained consciousness.
Turning his head and taking a look at Theradras' bloated and ugly body, Zaltar sighed as if he had just woken up from a dream.
"I didn't follow my brother's advice. It's not unfair at all that I ended up like this."
Zalta's translucent soul lowered his head and thanked Valeela: "Mortal, thank you for awakening my long-lost soul."
"And thank you for freeing me from my long bondage, Lunara."
Lunala walked to Sarlayan and helped him up. She shook her head at Zarta with some sadness: "No need to thank me. If you want to thank Yinas' son, thank him."
"If he hadn't always been vigilant, the person who died in this battle might have been overly optimistic about the situation."
"Inas's child?"
Zarta unexpectedly looked at the exhausted Sarlayan: "Haha~ time flies so fast. I didn't expect that Inas would also get married and have children, and she would also marry a mortal... which is in line with her personality."
According to the plan, after liberating Zaltar's soul, he will take the initiative to go to the Shadow Realm to accept the trial of the Arbitrator, and then be assigned to the Ardenweald, the paradise of natural creatures after death.
With the help of the Winter Queen, the master of Ardenweald, Zaltar's damaged soul will gradually be repaired, and there may be a chance to return to the Emerald Dream and Azeroth in the future.
But that will be at least thousands of years later.
Before leaving, Zaltar revealed the truth about how he was deceived by Theradras.
Sarlayan had already received spoilers from the barrage and did not listen carefully to Zalta's story.
Sarlayan: "I am already level 38 and a half, and I have gained a lot of experience in this battle."
[After all, you are fighting monsters at a higher level, and the enemies are legendary creatures. You are lucky to survive. 】
[It’s not all luck, apart from Luna and Leian, who are the main attackers, they actually played a big role in the battle. 】
[At that last moment, it was all thanks to Sharlayan to break down Theradras’s defense in advance, otherwise Lunala would not have been able to kill the enemy with one strike so easily. 】
[It’s a pity that it didn’t cause enough damage, otherwise it wouldn’t be impossible to directly upgrade to level 39.]
Feeling the pain in the bones of both arms, Sarlayan smiled bitterly and sighed: "I really can't do it without rest now. Let's recover from the injury first."
…
With Lunara's help, Zaltar made contact with Ardenweald through the Emerald Dream.
With the precise coordinates provided by Ardenweald, the guide from the Shadow Realm quickly arrived at the scene.
This is the first time Sharlayan and Valeela have seen creatures from the Shadow Realm.
According to the barrage, these blue-skinned creatures with wings are Kyrian, from the promotion fortress among the four major covenants in the Shadow Realm, and are responsible for guiding souls from all over the universe into the Shadow Realm.
Watching the female Kyrian take Zalta's soul away, Lunala gradually regained her sadness.
Dryads are also called the Laughing Sisters, and they smile most of the time.
This positive and optimistic mentality can effectively alleviate the psychological problems of allied soldiers during war years, so that they will not go to extremes due to the dark psychology that gradually breeds in the killing.
After successfully completing the task of liberating Zalta's soul, Lunala used the leaves given by Remulos to open the dream passage on the spot.
After bidding farewell to Sharlayan and Valeera, Lunala returned to Moonglade temporarily with the dryads and forest guardians. The next meeting should be at the front line of Silithus.
The exploration in Marathon was delayed for several days. When Sarlayan and Valeela returned to the surface, many night elf soldiers were already standing at the door of Marathon.
"You are……"
One of the female sentries with an elf dragon stopped her colleagues from being on guard, and stood out in surprise.
"Salayan and Valeera?"
"Um?"
Sarlayan turned his attention to this woman. He quickly thought of her identity, but could not recall her name for a while.
The elf dragon next to the female sentry shouted loudly: "They are bad guys and bad women!"
The female sentry patted her partner next to her in a funny way: "Don't talk nonsense, they are allies of the night elves now."
Valeera took the first step and retrieved the other party's name from her memory.
"Long time no see, Lena Lin Xin and Eternal Wings, are you really the ones who arrived from Feralas first?"
