Forced to Sell Myself to the Female Lead After Killing the Male Lead

73  Chapter 73

"Meow?!"

"What, what is that?!"

Staring at the purple meteor rapidly approaching her location in the sky, countless question marks surfaced in Limo's mind, and the little white wolf was undoubtedly baffled.

With her extraordinary perception,

Limo had already seen the true nature of the purple meteor.

It was an elliptical object the size of a bed, wrapped in a metal shell. The metal shell was adorned with various strange runes, somewhat resembling magic runes. Stranger still, this elliptical object had purple flames coming out of its rear end.

Apart from the purple flames that seemed to propel and accelerate it, Limo didn't sense any energy fluctuations from this hunk of metal. It seemed to be just a high-speed flying piece of iron.

'What the heck is this?'

The little white wolf gazed puzzled at the rapidly approaching meteor, while the surrounding abyssal demons, equally clueless, imitated Limo's action and looked up at the purple unknown object. Of course, the carefree little white wolf didn't know that far away, the Blizzard Knights in the south of the Galros Fortress had held their breath upon seeing this iron lump...

As the purple light rapidly expanded in Limo's eyes, the confused little white wolf curiously raised her paw and forcefully slapped it.

The moment her paw touched the iron object,

The runes on its steel shell instantly began to flow!

Hundreds of crimson magic circles suddenly emerged around it! As the magic circles appeared, the interior of the steel meteor suddenly compressed crazily, then released and expanded rapidly! A boundless and endless force instantly burst out like a breached flood, madly venting outwards!

The moment Limo sensed this energy, her previously relaxed expression changed, and her crimson vertical pupils shrank abruptly!

The crimson power of Shadow suddenly emerged from Limo's body, attempting to form an energy barrier for protection!

Unfortunately,

It seemed Limo was a little too late.

The next instant,

The energy sealed within the steel meteor had completely broken free from its magical constraints.

"Bloom"

Under the astonished gazes of Yumo, Liyu, and others, the heart-stopping explosion and blinding light suddenly erupted in front of the snow-white giant wolf!

The world-destroying crimson energy engulfed Limo and expanded at an inconceivable speed, swallowing everything around it. Countless abyssal demons and nearby magical beasts vanished without a trace before they could even scream, while the more distant abyssal demons were suddenly blasted hundreds of meters away. The snowy plains and surrounding forests instantly transformed into a lifeless, fiery purgatory under the crimson energy's spread.

Simultaneously, the sky-blocking sea of flames swept through the clouds, and the colossal mushroom cloud nearly pierced the heavens, painting a terrifying picture resembling the apocalypse.

Even tens of thousands of miles away,

The scorching light that could sear one's eyes still carried the heat wave's aftermath, sweeping everything in the distance. The entire northern region of the Snow Night Empire seemed to feel a strong sense of shaking at this moment.

In the midst of the blazing sea of flames,

The giant wolf couldn't help but let out a pained howl...

On the other side,

near Wind City, atop the Nivell Mountains,

a massive purple magic array was outlined here! Standing on this array were nearly a hundred magicians! Each of them stood at their respective array points, pouring their own magic power into the huge magic array!

The key figure in the array was a brown-haired man dressed in a golden robe, holding an ancient magic staff.

Judging from the rich earth attribute magic power emanating from him, this man was a rare Seventh-rank existence.

However,

this Seven rank Archmage was now panting heavily,

only after drinking several bottles of mana recovery potion did he barely escape the exhausted state.

After a few deep breaths, this royal Archmage of the Snow Night Empire slowly raised his head and respectfully looked at the blond man in extravagant clothing nearby,

"Your Highness Third Prince, may I ask, are you satisfied with the effect of the Magic Energy Fission Bomb?"

Facing the Archmage's inquiry,

the man known as the Third Prince did not answer immediately,

instead, he stared intently at the image transmitted by the magic crystal in his hand, watching the apocalyptic explosion, the Third Prince, Bernard, gradually cracked an excited smile,

"Excellent! Very good! Master Jace, you've all worked hard!"

"It's what we should do."

The royal Archmage named Jace smiled slightly proudly, but in his eyes, there was a hint of barely perceptible dissatisfaction. He hesitated and stole glances at the man before him,

as if there were some words stuck in his throat,

however,

at this moment, Bernard had focused all his attention on the image and did not notice Jace's strange expression.

Looking at the terrifying scene in the image, Bernard quickly gave orders to the scouts at the front,

"Go closer and check! Are snow devourer and Bai Yanluo still alive?!"

Hearing Bernard's words,

the scout communicating with him could not help but fall into a strange dilemma, then nervously replied,

"I'm, I'm sorry, Your Highness. The explosion was too terrifying; our griffins can't fly over. We can only observe from a distance in the high altitude."

"Useless! Are you sure snow devourer and Bai Yanluo were both hit directly?"

"Uh, snow devourer, yes. As for Bai Yanluo, I'm not sure she was to far away and …."

"hah?!"

"No I mean! …Yes, ! They were both hit by the Magic Energy Fission Bomb! All swallowed by the explosion!"

"Hehe, that's good."

Upon hearing this news, Bernard showed a satisfied smile,

"By the way, what about Galros Fortress? It should be within the explosion range too, right?"

"Well, indeed it is, but,"

"But what?"

"But the flames seem to have been blocked by something, and they couldn't reach the target."

"Blocked?"

"Sorry, Your Highness, I'm not very sure either. When the explosion reached the Galros Fortress, it suddenly dissipated..."

"Hm?"

Upon hearing this, the smile on Bernard's face suddenly ceased, and his whole demeanor became somber. The surrounding magicians began to shiver under the terrifying aura, casting fearful glances at Bernard.

Bernard himself, deep in thought, placed a hand on his chin.

'dissipated?'

That won't do. The Galros Fortress must be destroyed now as well.

He must make sure that guy dies inside.

Thinking of this, Bernard abruptly turned his head to look at the nearby Archmage Jace.

"Archmage! My elder brother had two Magic Energy Fission Bombs, right?!"

"Yes, yes,"

Jace nodded with some confusion, an ominous feeling arising in his mind,

"Your Highness, what do you want to do?!"

"Launch another Magic Energy Fission Bomb at the Galros Fortress."

Bernard said indifferently,

yet this casual remark terrified Jace, who threw himself beside Bernard without any regard for etiquette:

"Your Highness, that's not possible! Attacking snow devourer and Bai Yanluo is one thing, but bombing the fortress now that most of the Abyss Demons have retreated?! And you should know that Duke's troops are nearby! It will bring the relationship between the royal family and the northern territories to a new low!"

"I know that."

"Moreover, the more important thing is that the  Saintess of the Asumos Church seems to be in the fortress as well! We've already attacked Bai Yanluo; if we accidentally kill the Saintess, both the Red Lotus Leaf Empire and the Asumos Church might declare war on us!"

Jace's words were full of anxiety and concern for the country's future.

However,

under Jace's disappointed gaze, Bernard shook his head carelessly, and said disdainfully,

"With the Magic Energy Fission Bomb in our possession, what do we have to fear?"

"Your Highness! This weapon cannot be mass-produced! Moreover, if there's a problem with the northern territories, our country simply..."

But before Jace could finish, Bernard slapped his hand on the Archmage's shoulder, cutting him off,

"Archmage Jace!"

"Your, Your Highness?"

"Who's in command here?"

"It's, it's you..."

"Then don't ask further and just do as I say."

"Yes, undetstand."

As an Archmage loyal to the royal family, Jace had no choice but to nod helplessly and return to the center of the magic array.

Seeing Jace no longer arguing, Bernard coldly smiled and then gazed meaningfully towards the north.

Elder brother,

I won't let you have your way,

'What I can't get, you can't have either!!!'
