I Ascend to the Divine Throne through Arcane Means

Chapter 686: Demigod? Escape! (Part 2)



At this moment, Puer suddenly felt his perception of that sun elf blur for a moment.

However, the hammer in his hand did not pause at all and smashed fiercely onto the sun elf's back.

Without any hesitation, the sun elf's body exploded instantly under Puer's attack, its fragments devoured entirely by the surrounding magma.

Despite having killed the sun elf in front of him, Puer's expression did not improve at all but became even gloomier.

Even if he was a Demigod Rank power, it shouldn't be this easy to kill a legend.

There must be something wrong!

Recalling that sudden blur in his perception of the sun elf, Puer shook his head.

It must have been then that the sun elf was replaced by an avatar.

What he had killed was merely an insignificant avatar.

With a flash, Puer moved to the spot where he had just slain the sun elf.

Feeling the lingering aura around, Puer had already guessed a little.

Residual space fluctuation?

Could that Sun Spirit Mirror Legendary Ranger also possess space ability?

What precious extraordinary treasure could it be?

Such a sun elf legend with this identity and ability, Puer could not recall any sun elf that fit these conditions.

"Guardian sir!"

At this moment, several figures appeared next to Puer, greeted him respectfully.

These people were those whose legendary aura Lis felt earlier in "Heart of Molten Fire."

They were either in seclusion or engrossed in forging but were alarmed by the skirmish between Lis and Puer and came out.

Since when did "Heart of Molten Fire" have such anomalies?

Even Guardian Puer took action; did someone infiltrate "Heart of Molten Fire"?

"Hmm."

Puer glanced at the legendary dwarves around him; these were his juniors.

Of course, they were also significant figures in the Dwarf Kingdom.

After pondering, Puer said to them:

"Just now, a sun elf infiltrated the 'Heart of Molten Fire,' the barrier did not react, only when he approached the 'Molten Fire Furnace' did I discover him."

Upon finishing speaking, Puer waved his hand, and Lis's disguised appearance of a sun elf appeared in front of several legends, with a cold snort, said:

"This is the appearance of that sun elf legend; I did not catch him."

"I cannot leave the 'Heart of Molten Fire,' you handle this matter."

"Let the Royal Court and the temple investigate, see which sun elf family he belongs to."

"Let little Preston send someone to the Elf Kingdom for an explanation; are those long ears looking for a fight?"

"The Elf Royal Court is gone, yet they dare to do such things, not putting the Dwarf Kingdom in their eyes?"

Several legends nodded quickly in agreement.

They had never seen Lord Puer so angry.

Yet, a sun elf dared to offend the holy land of the dwarves, which is a provocation to the Dwarf Kingdom.

If they do not retaliate fiercely, would anyone dare to test the Dwarves?

However, they were also somewhat surprised in their hearts.

They knew Guardian Puer's strength well, yet the sun elf legend escaped easily from his grasp?

It seems the opponent's strength and methods are quite formidable!

No one knows what this sun elf was trying to do by infiltrating the 'Heart of Molten Fire'?

Since exposed, will the opponent leave directly or continue hiding and waiting?

...

Meanwhile, on another side,

Lis's figure appeared in a hidden spot outside Lonely Mountain City.

This is a gathering point Lis prepared in advance.

Sneaky space transmission into Lonely Mountain City might expose his identity.

Teleported here, it is much safer.

Lis's appearance gradually transformed from that of a sun elf to Dwarf Lisi.

Rubbing his neck, Lis felt a bit emotional.

Earlier, facing the dwarf demigod Puer was quite dangerous.

However, the Mirror Body avatar he summoned in advance came in handy.

After using numerous confusion spells, Lis successfully let the avatar replace himself to endure Puer's attack.

And Lis himself left the battle scene quickly through space transmission.

Overall, the purpose of this infiltration into the 'Heart of Molten Fire' was successfully achieved.

Although not directly troubling 'Matteus's Magic Ring,' at least he confirmed its location.

Lis had expected strong dwarf clan guardians at the core of Sotiga Volcano.

But he did not anticipate the guardian would be a demigod!

Perhaps, 'Heart of Molten Fire' holds more importance to the Dwarf Kingdom than Lis initially thought.

Nonetheless, Lis now needs to be more cautious for a while.

Since there is a demigod guardian, forcing entry to take 'Matteus's Magic Ring' is unrealistic.

Given this, he'll have to use Dwarf Lisi to indirectly break through.

He imagined such trouble would tighten security at Sotiga Volcano and Lonely Mountain City.

It's best to return to Iron Hammer Workshop soon!

Lis cautiously returned to his room in the Iron Hammer Workshop without alerting anyone.

By this time, he noticed significantly more dwarf soldiers in Lonely Mountain City, and the atmosphere throughout the Royal Capital was much more severe.

Clearly, the commotion he caused was not small!

Lis noted quietly, returned to rest at Iron Hammer Workshop.

...

Lonely Mountain City, Dwarf King Palace,

At this moment, the usual harmonious atmosphere within the palace had entirely vanished.

Everyone was hurried, seemingly busy with something,

Or they perhaps wanted to appear busy to avoid the Dwarf King's fury descending upon them.

However, the dwarf ministers in the court were not so lucky; they were facing the whirlwind and storm from Dwarf King Preston.

"Tell me, how could a sun elf infiltrate the 'Heart of Molten Fire'?"

"I let you manage the kingdom, is this how you do it?"

"Useless, fools, is your head filled with raw iron?"

"Damn it, this is the Dwarf Kingdom's disgrace, a humiliation to me!"

"Speak up, why are you all bowing your heads?"

"Aren't you usually pretty talkative?"

"Huh?!"

...

Faced with the violent anger of the Dwarf King above, everyone lowered their heads.

Not normally concerned with affairs, the greatly enraged Dwarf King clearly indicated a deeply offensive action to a forbidden zone of the Dwarf Kingdom.

And those dwarf ministers dared not speak out, knowing whoever said more would be the focal point of the Dwarf King's wrath.

After enduring Preston's extended "storm" attack, they finally awaited his respite.

Casimir stepped forward respectfully to Preston:

"Your Majesty, that sun elf legend infiltrating our holy land is the greatest offense to the Dwarf Kingdom, the Elf Kingdom should take responsibility for this matter."

"I am willing to be your envoy to make them pay the price!"

"Hmm... that sounds better."

Preston nodded in satisfaction.

Though Casimir might seem overly diplomatic, not typical of a dwarf, stepping forward at this time was already far better than the others.

"Then you go represent me, take a team of Thunder God Warriors, let those damned long ears know the price of angering us!"

"And... Morgan!"

Preston thought for a moment before continuing.

"Your Majesty!"

A dwarf with a resolute look stepped forward and answered solemnly.

"This sun elf matter is entrusted to you, bring him back to me!"

"I want no more news of anyone breaking into the 'Heart of Molten Fire."

"No bad news about the kingdom either, you hear me?"

Preston's eyes scanned all below, his legendary aura was undeniable.

"Morgan, come with me to the 'Heart of Molten Fire."

After speaking, Preston and Morgan disappeared from the palace.

Only then did the dwarf ministers straighten up.

They exchanged glances full of helplessness and bitter smiles.

Already busy with the Phillips Crystal matters, now another significant issue arises.

A sun elf entering the Dwarf Kingdom's holy land without apparent reason seems quite suspicious.

It's evident that times ahead will be unsettled again.
