Chapter 338: Chapter 336: The Lion King and the Ice Queen

Scenes similar to the disputes between Li Yan and Qingri unfolded throughout Fairy Tale Town at the same time.

Originally, after Song Ling’s plan had concluded, aside from a few monsters that were initially above Disaster Level, the strength between humans and monsters in Fairy Tale Town should have been balanced, with humans even slightly stronger than the monsters.

Because the monsters would fall into a weakened state due to the loss of some of their strength, while humans, having just gained strength, were full of vigour.

But even after gaining strength, they could not instantly adjust their mindset, and thus, were unable to cope, leaving them to be chased and attacked by the monsters.

Many people were about to be killed by the monsters when, at this critical moment, the Warlord King’s Barrier activated, and those red mists permeated into every ordinary person’s nostrils.

If they had not gained strength, then those mists would have made them instantly lose recognition of kin, driving them into a state of frenzied slaughter.

But now, the Barrier merely incited the humans’ fighting spirit and the courage to resist, which actually helped the humans to hold on amidst the frenzy of the monsters losing their strength.

However, Wen Wen knew very well that this situation could not be maintained indefinitely, as it was jointly created by two Disaster Level Upper Sequence monsters that possessed secret techniques, and after a while, those people would eventually fall into that state.

Therefore, before that happened, Wen Wen and his allies had to defeat the ’King’ and ’Queen’ supporting the Barrier; otherwise, the consequences were unimaginable.

An entire town full of frenzied superpower users, though not strong, was still chilling to contemplate.

When the two arrived at the Royal Palace, Song Ling was nearly at his limit.

The two monsters had originally been immensely strong, and even though Song Ling had set numerous traps on them, they still possessed the strength of Disaster Level Middle Sequence.

Even being at the bottom, that was still the strength of the Middle Sequence.

And they were recovering from the weakness caused by the loss of some of their strength, while Song Ling had just been injured in the battle with the Black Blood Princess, so the situation was not optimistic.

These two monsters were referred to as ’Warlord King’ and ’Ice Queen’.

The Warlord King’s current appearance was that of a savage-like figure with unkempt hair and drooling mouth, his long hair and beard so dense they almost obscured his features.

His body was covered in brownish-yellow fur, and he wore no clothing to cover his shame, making it awkward to watch him during intense battles.

It seemed he had an invisible large armor around his body that made Song Ling’s attacks almost ineffective.

This armor was called ’King’s New Clothes’ and was a set of Disaster Level Superpower Item.

The armor was completely invisible, unseen by anyone, not affecting daily life, and could protect against attacks when needed.

Since he was originally a huge lion, he only wore a crown and no clothes.

But once Song Ling’s plan succeeded and he transformed into a humanoid form, he now looked quite indecent, even somewhat eye-hurting.

His attack method was wild close combat, relying on the strong defense of the armor to launch attacks on Song Ling like a violent storm, with claws that could cut through anything keeping Song Ling too busy to fend for himself.

The other monster, the Ice Queen, had a completely different style from her husband and was quite a sight for sore eyes.

The Ice Queen’s skin was so white it was almost reflective, tall and sightly, with light blue Ice Armor perfectly protecting her while also perfectly showcasing her figure.

In her left hand she held a constantly spinning ice orb, and in her right, she wielded an Ice Longsword.

Ice pucks could unrestrainedly release imitations of icy creatures like "Ice Birds" and "Ice Snakes," and wherever the longsword pointed, there lay the domain of ice.

The coldness caused the plants to lose their vitality, and the fierce swordsmanship could shatter any attack from Song Ling. The Black Blood Princess’s swordsmanship must have been learned from her mother.

The two of them, one from afar and one up close, coordinated very tacitly. Although their strength was no longer as great as their children’s, the combined power of the two could likely still outclass their unruly descendants in their prime.

After observing for a while, Wen Wen touched his chin and smirked, "It would be good if these two could swap their equipment, as their current look really leaves me somewhat dissatisfied."

Sifumo nodded, agreeing with a mischievous smile, "Warlord King in Ice Armor would at least not be so glaring to the eyes, and the Ice Queen in that transparent armor... hehe, just thinking about it is thrilling."

After finishing, the two exchanged a look and revealed similar smiles. This was also the first time Wen Wen somewhat appreciated Sifumo’s look.

Such topics could easily bring men closer together, otherwise why would the most harmonious communities online always belong to the seasoned drivers, those thanks and kind words perfectly proving this point.

After watching the battle for a while and understanding the fighting routines of both sides, Sifumo said to Wen Wen, "Song Ling is about to lose her stamina. The two of us combined should be able to handle one of them, who do you think we should take on?"

Wen Wen naturally responded, "We should obviously take on the woman, I have no interest in fighting someone even more perverted than I am, and she has more spoils of war, which would make splitting the loot convenient."

Well then, Wen Wen’s choice to confront the Ice Queen was actually because he had his eyes on her longsword.

As his strength had increased, a short sword no longer met his needs, so securing a longsword was imperative, and the best rune weapon he could create was insignificant compared to a Supernatural Weapon.

After saying this, Wen Wen opened his wings and charged toward the Ice Queen like a brute.

The Ice Queen frowned, an Assimilation Realm superpower user charging over so simply, was he seeking his own death?

She pointed her longsword in the direction of Wen Wen, and a giant ice pillar as thick as a tree trunk suddenly appeared, rushing towards Wen Wen.

Caught off guard, Wen Wen was directly struck by the ice pillar and flung far away, then he did not reappear.

Sifumo sighed helplessly as countless threads appeared out of nowhere, blocking the Ice Queen who wanted to deliver the final blow.

He didn’t believe that Wen Wen could be dealt with so easily. Although the Ice Queen was strong, she wouldn’t be able to take down a Ranger in one move, so that guy must have done it on purpose, but Sifumo was still unclear about the motive.

In fact, Wen Wen did indeed do it intentionally.

On the way here, Wen Wen discovered that aside from the three people battling like Song Ling, there were virtually no others left in the Royal Palace.

And since this place was basically a stronghold for monsters, it was bound to have plenty of valuable things.

He couldn’t very well say in front of Sifumo that he would ignore the safety of the ordinary people in the town to go after the benefits himself.

Now, it was the perfect opportunity to send someone else out to gather those benefits for him.

He snapped his fingers and, feeling downcast from being called back to the Sanctuary from outside, Little Xiaomi suddenly appeared in front of Wen Wen again.

"Take this bag, stay away from our battle, and search as much as you can in this Royal Palace. Put anything valuable you find in here. If you encounter danger you can’t avoid, I will bring you into the Sanctuary,"

"If you do well, next time there is a chance for a field mission, I won’t forget about you."

After saying this, Wen Wen joined the battle, leaving the eagerly expectant Little Xiaomi standing there.
