There was complete silence as everyone stared at that motionless monster which was under Mag's foot. Other than shock, there was also relief on their faces.
Now, everyone was looking at Mag with a gaze that was grateful and full of adoration.
This man was indeed far too powerful.
A monster that could withstand 10th-tier powerhouses' attacks didn't last more than 10 strikes of his sword.
"Lord Alex is so powerful. He's so compatible with Big Sister Irina," Yabemiya said enviously.
!!
Elizabeth was quiet, but she was looking at Irina with a challenging gaze.
Helena looked at Mag palely with blood seeping out from the corner of her mouth. "Even if he doesn't become a god, no one on the Norland Continent is his match. Not even Rankster."
"Unless he's really a god." The queen's gaze landed on the metal pod that Irina was cradling in her arms. There was a hint of regret in her smile. "It's a pity that we are not able to see that."
"Looking at it now, it wasn't as bad as what we had imagined." Helena forced a smile and looked at Irina meaningfully. "Your Majesty is right. It doesn't matter if she agrees with us or not, she will still protect the elven race."
"That fellow doesn't seem to be alive?" The queen's gaze landed on that monster's carcass with a hint of doubt on her face.
"Is it puppetry?" How could there be such a powerful puppet in this world? Or, was it a being like the devil on the ice sheets at the extreme north?" Helena frowned.
"No. There's no evil aura on its body. The Holy Light pierced through it, but it didn't have any additional effect." The queen shook her head.
Mag lifted his foot to look at the nuclear core that he had stomped to bits. What a pity. This was a remote control mech. The person operating it wasn't inside the mech.
However, looking at the mech's debris on the ground, his gaze became heated again.
There were hundreds of cannons installed on this guy. Mag estimated that there was plenty of ammunition and interesting sophisticated technology on it too.
"Keep it."
Mag waved his hand and kept this 100-odd meters tall monster away.
In that instant, he was even a little regretful over his decision to cut it into half earlier. This would be a great assistant if he could repair it.
"This fellow is so violent." Xi looked at the monster, which was cut into half and had its nuclear core stomped upon by Mag, and her eyelids twitched crazily.
Compared to him at the ice sheets in the previous month, he seemed to have gotten even stronger.
What was even scarier was, Mag had displayed an awesome combat power without any assistance from a mech or external object and simply relied on his physical strength, battle techniques and his understanding of the laws.
Sitting in the battleship's control room and watching that figure on the screen, Xi even felt a pressure.
She felt that even with the battleship as her assistance, if she was to face Mag head on without enough space and distance, she would be defeated quickly.
The continental civilization that had always been monitored and despised by the Underground City, now had a being that even she thought was scary. If this battle's video clip was sent back, it would be a high-level situation, right?
"Furthermore, who is that child? Why would there be someone from Underground City, who was willing to take the risk of being wanted and punished, and crossed over the barrier of the two worlds just to steal her?" Xi focused her camera onto that metal pod in Irina's arms.
The Holy Light cut up the metal pod and the baby girl was carried out.
"So cute!"
Looking at that chubby face at a close distance, even Xi couldn't help but let out a wow.
That was an elven baby that was about three months old. She was still sleeping with her eyes closed. Even the previous intense battle didn't wake her from her sweet dream.
Apart from that, Xi didn't see anything special in her.
However, judging from Irina and the surrounding elves' expressions, this baby seemed to have a very high status. Perhaps, she was the daughter of an important figure in the elven race?
Mag put away his longsword and casted a glance at the queen and Helena. He narrowed his gaze.
These two people's situation was worse than what he had previously expected. They seemed to be dying.
Irina carried the holy infant. She looked at her peaceful sleeping face and couldn't help smiling. She looked at the queen and was about to speak.
"Irina, I have let you down, but please help me look after this forest and this child," the queen said with a smile. A golden beam lit up at her fingertip and she began to dissipate.
"Royal Mother!" Irina was shocked and her tears fell uncontrollably.
"Your Majesty!" The elves seemed to understand what was going on when they saw that and all of them started to weep.
"Don't be sad, my child. I lived for the elves my whole life and I'll die for the elves. My only regret is I did such a deed to you. I hope you can forgive me," the queen said apologetically.
Irina pursed her lips in silence.
"My people, please follow your new queen and establish a new rule. Remember, you all are always free elves!" The queen spread her arms and her voice was carried out to every part in the Wind Forest. "I will bless you all!"
A golden light suddenly glowed and dots of lights landed on the elves, lighting up a golden glow around them.
In the deep crater left behind by the Tree of Life, a tiny tree sapling appeared. It looked so green and fresh.
"Her Majesty the Queen!"
All the elves began to kneel on one knee and there was weeping everywhere.
"I don't expect you to forgive me, but I admit that the decision made back then was stupid." Helena looked at Irina calmly. When her gaze landed on the baby in her arms, it became full of reverence. "Please protect her. She's the future of the elven race."
"They are the future of the elven race." Irina looked at the elves who were kneeling below. She said with a hint of sarcasm in her smile, "Furthermore, this is a child who doesn't know anything. Why do you all like to impose things that children shouldn't be undertaking on them?"
Helena was stunned before showing a relieved smile.
"Sally, go do whatever you want. No one will hold you back this time," Helena looked at Sally and said her last words.
After that, she turned into a black and gold beam of light and disappeared completely.
Meanwhile, in the crater, next to the little tree sapling, a tiny vine appeared and gently leaned on the sapling.
Sally stood amongst the elves in a daze. She clenched her fists and her gaze became convicted. The burden on her shoulders seemed to have gotten heavier.
On this day, the holy infant was born and the elven race tragically lost their queen and high priestess.
In the midst of the weeping, the sleeping baby woke up and gazed at Irina with champagne-colored eyes. She was alert and cute. She cooed and reached out with both her hands. She seemed very close to Irina.
