Chapter 734: Chapter 721: Home Delivery (Part 3)
By the time the Demon King arrived, having been forced to fly over due to the teleportation failure, the damage here was even more severe than in those cities attacked by the Despair Mushrooms.
And upon learning that Eleanor had teleported to an unknown location, after extinguishing fires for most of the day and witnessing the devastation in the cities besieged by Despair Mushrooms, the Demon King couldn’t help but mutter softly, "How could there be this kind of... utter fool!"
...
The feeling of distortion from the teleportation struck Eleanor, stronger and more chaotic than ever, but considering it was an ultra-long-distance teleportation she’d never experienced before, she thought it was normal.
The distortion faded, and the dizziness from the teleportation caused Eleanor to lose her balance and collide with the treasure chest behind her.
Clang—
Treasures spilled all over the ground.
"So dark..."
Just then, the surrounding Glowing Mushrooms lit up one by one, illuminating a seemingly meticulously decorated large cavern.
On the distant stone wall, a place name formed from Glowing Mushrooms—Happy Land Park?
What kind of name?
Eleanor felt it was somewhat different from the Northern Territory she envisioned and instinctively looked to her side, at Thirteen.
Then she saw Thirteen, divided into three pieces, already lifeless.
"Teleportation accident?" Eleanor reached out to check Thirteen’s condition. After all, he was her introduction to the Northern Territory and her stepping stone.
However, what she extended was a severed hand, with fresh blood gushing from the cut surface.
"Huh?"
The dizziness from the teleportation faded, and the delayed pain surged into her brain.
It was only then that Eleanor horrifyingly realized that both her hands and her right leg had been severed by space during the teleportation. Her initial fall was not due to dizziness but rather because she was missing a leg.
"So painful! Damn it, what kind of teleportation array is this?"
Amidst her cries of agony, Eleanor looked down, but she saw no magic array.
At that moment, from the darkness behind her, a pale and strong hand seized Eleanor’s long hair and yanked it backward fiercely!
Simultaneously, a somewhat familiar voice, suppressing a sense of glee, softly spoke by her ear, "Look who’s here? Isn’t it Miss Eleanor?"
"Lou... Louisa?" In her shock and doubt, Eleanor exerted force, only to find that she couldn’t break free from the other’s grip!
Little Pig had one hand clutching Eleanor’s hair and gently picked up her severed arm with the other, extending his tongue to give it a lick, savoring it for a moment before saying, "Oh, Duke, until today, never could I have imagined even in my dreams that we would meet again like this. What a joyous moment! Alas, your blood isn’t as filled with power as I had imagined."
With the situation overpowering her, Eleanor bit back her pain and humiliation, speaking in a pleasant tone, "Louisa! I’m not an enemy; I’m here to join the Fungus Castle! Let me go; let me talk to your leader! Think about it, I can still help you continue to ascend!"
"Ha-ha-ha-ha!" Louisa couldn’t help but laugh, and the sound sent chills through Eleanor.
As Louisa laughed, a few Puki reassembled Thirteen in a somewhat clumsy manner, and then Lin Jun stuffed Thirteen back in.
Thirteen rose with ease, in Eleanor’s terrified gaze, and unhooked the slave curse band beneath the mushroom cap as if it were merely a scarf instead of a powerful contract tool.
It pulled out a Memory Crystal, seemingly recording Eleanor’s sorry state.
"You... you all..." Eleanor’s voice started to tremble.
"Oh, Miss Eleanor, of course, you’re not an enemy, you’re just the prey!"
The blood spilling from Eleanor suddenly surged, but Little Pig had expected it, smashing Eleanor’s head down hard onto the ground!
The tremendous impact caused the entire cavern to tremble, and the surrounding treasures scattered further, with many being ruined in the process.
A Puki popped out from the nearby fungal mat, slapping Little Pig on the back of the head with a tentacle.
This prevented Little Pig from delivering a second blow, granting Eleanor another chance to speak.
"Louisa, no, Miss Louisa, wait, don’t kill me! All these riches and treasures can be yours! You don’t have to kill me, think about the ascension! I can still help you ascend!" In her tearful pleading, Eleanor didn’t forget to put forth her last bargaining chip.
As Little Pig lifted Eleanor’s head, with its other hand, it gently lifted her face stained with mycelium and muck: "Indeed, about my ascension, I still need to rely on dear Miss Eleanor."
"Yes! Yes! I’ll help you, help you!" Eleanor nodded vigorously in a flattery, with eyes glistening with delicious hope.
