Find a Troubled Girl after leaving the Guild-Chapter 449 - 242: Ivynis’s Tears (Part 2)

No wonder the Eye of God and the Empire would make use of its flesh.

Among the various panels, Li Ang found the key point.

Whether Apostle or Annihilator, there is a [Link to the Creator].

Its effect is to provide energy and guidance, a skill that substitutes the originally invalidated [Creator Link] of the Star Soul.

Li Ang quickly read through the Annihilator’s Spiritual Line that stretched out into the entire cave; its bizarre and sinister spirituality made him feel nauseous, but he had to set such thoughts aside and carefully look for the key point.

He searched along the energy-supplying spirituality and eventually discovered that its operation mode was very similar to the Crimson Demon’s [Magic Power Dimension Conduit], also transmitting information and magic power from the void of the Magic Power Dimension.

Discovering this, he immediately began thinking about how to sever it from the spiritual level.

Yet, as his mind moved, some method of eradicating it seemed to come naturally.

It felt like instinct, or perhaps due to the intense burning sensation causing a loss of control, Li Ang raised his arm and squeezed, a piercing screech suddenly echoed through the cave.

The Annihilator’s countless flesh convulsed painfully, trembling and reconnecting to reform into one entity.

"Oh? Has it worked?"

Otto looked over with a smile, while Li Ang turned slightly to hide his left hand.

This arm, yet again unconsciously attacked out of control.

"It seems so."

Li Ang glanced at the Annihilator’s spiritual structure; the complex Spiritual Line had been tangled, resulting in punctures that inflicted severe damage while also carrying an unconditional damage intensification effect.

He fired several Magic Missiles, and the white spherical body of Jenoside shook violently from the explosions; it didn’t have a mouth in the conventional sense, but its agonizing screams could be heard by all.

This damage intensification effect even reflected on the spiritual level.

Thinking of the Crimson Demon using Thorny Wings to drill attacks, this DEBUFF must be an effect-producing attack against enemies of that demon’s level.

Aside from Diana feeling more terrified in the distance, Li Ang and Otto rather found comfort in the piercing sound, signaling that victory was near.

However, Li Ang’s comfort began to be replaced by growing agitation.

Is it a curse? Why is this burning sensation getting hotter? The right hand too.

He frowned, looked down at his right hand, and found it was the Celestial Blue Ring.

Whenever the Eye of God is involved, or in encounters with demons, the Celestial Blue Ring from Ivynis always heats up. Initially, he considered it a warning specific to certain situations.

But at this moment, it was so scalding that Li Ang found it hard to endure.

He realized it was because every time an effective damage was dealt to the projection of Jenoside, the ring heated up, yet he had just failed to separate his attention to notice it.

Is this normal?

Under normal circumstances, Ivynis should appear at this moment.

Yet this time, the Maiden of Azure did not appear, neither giving warnings nor hints.

From this perspective, Li Ang even found it somewhat unsettling.

Because she is similar to Zoe, there seems to be a certain contrast; from initial doubts, he began to care about her presence.

Wait!

Li Ang suddenly realized this was different from the past.

Like Zoe, precisely because she is like Zoe, so...

He abruptly looked at Jenoside; what came out afterward was no longer a projection but a segment.

This means it’s part of the Star Soul.

Thinking of Baal Eden and Diana’s reluctance to resonate with Zoe by transmitting the impact she endured, Li Ang immediately realized a possibility.

All attacks on Jenoside would be transmitted to Ivynis.

"Otto, wait." Li Ang immediately called out.

He also transmitted in the form of spiritual fluctuation, accompanied by his voice.

Ivynis, are you there?

A confused Otto, along with the surrounding environment, seemed to be caught in a paused moment.

Responding to Li Ang, the tear-filled image of the Maiden of Azure reflected again in his eyes.

"Ivynis." Li Ang looked at the Maiden with the long azure hair, calling out her name.

The Maiden’s face showed pain; compared to her usual calm transcendence, she was different, her deep blue eyes lightly scanned the surroundings, pausing briefly on Diana before fixing on Li Ang.

She lifted her slender arms, like green onion fingers caressing Li Ang’s elbow, causing him to feel a tingling sensation.

After a few breaths, he realized it wasn’t initiated by Ivynis but was his own sensory response.

Pulling up his sleeve speechlessly, yet another Thorn grew out.

Now, starting from the elbow, his left forearm appeared more like its original form with crimson keratin, as the human skin struggled to cling on.

"I’m sorry," Ivynis said.

"No matter what you don’t need to say that, you’ve always been helping me," Li Ang stepped forward a little.

Seeing Ivynis this time, she looked incredibly weak; as their faces came close, her features were increasingly clear, and remembering someone previously remarked her resemblance to Zoe, Li Ang now deliberately observed, finding the sensation even clearer.

Yet overall, she was thinner than that vigorous Wild Cat; the delicate arc of her petite feet lacked curves, distinctly different from that slightly fleshier pair.

Both have doll-like exquisite features, but if Zoe were a rosy, sunny princess doll, then Ivynis was a delicate, heart-rending fragile glass doll.
