Chapter 283: The Battle of Orlan City (Part 6) - Celestial Cat and the Dragon Clan
Chapter 283: The Battle of Orlan City (Part 6) - Celestial Cat and the Dragon Clan
Regent Legolas's expression grew unusually solemn, but he didn't panic.
The letter Princess Su Yu had delivered mentioned that besides their own resources, the princess had other aces up her sleeve.
Alyssa cast a reassuring glance at Legolas and the other powerful figures around her.
Then, with a casual air, she fixed her gaze on the two dukes and the numerous high-ranking enemies before them. "You can't seriously think that I wouldn't have other contingencies in place besides the Regent, can you?"
The momentum of the rebel high-ranking figures faltered.
Alyssa smiled lightly and pulled out a fist-sized transparent crystal from her spatial ring.
The crystal was a deep blue, with seven glowing points of light inside, faintly forming the shape of a "spoon," making it look incredibly dazzling.
Alyssa tossed the crystal in her hand a few times, then threw it forcefully into the sky, shouting, "Descend, Lady Aline!"
Soon after the deep blue crystal left Alyssa's hand, it shattered with a loud "pop," breaking into countless fragments.
These fragments glinted with a bright light, like sparkling stardust.
The seven glowing points of light, freed from the crystal's confines, erupted with a brilliant glow! Their celestial power rapidly unfurled, forming a deep blue Celestial Gateway with the seven points of light at its center.
"Meow~"
With a lazy cat call, a Celestial Cat with fur shimmering with starlight stepped out of the Celestial Gateway.
This Celestial Cat was not Morning Star but Morning Star's mother, Aline.
Aline appeared harmless, lazily padding through the air.
But her aura was terrifying! The energy radiating from her body was almost on par with Sivana, making her one of the most formidable beings below the divine level!
After appearing, Aline first glanced in the direction of the two dukes, then turned her gaze back to Alyssa. "Hello, Alyssa!"
"Hello, Lady Aline!" Alyssa quickly replied with a respectful tone.
Aline nodded. "Alyssa, I'm here to help you deal with these pests. But before that, I need to entrust Morning Star to you."
With that, a pale blue egg covered in starlight patterns appeared before Alyssa. "Morning Star is about to hatch. Please take good care of her for me!"
"I will, Lady Aline!" Alyssa answered solemnly.
She then waved her hand, and a pale green portal, reminiscent of a Druid's Emerald Dream, appeared before her. She carefully placed Morning Star's egg into the portal.
Watching this scene through the live stream, Su Yu suddenly understood:
No wonder Alyssa had been reading How to Tame a Kitten a few days ago; she was preparing to raise Morning Star!
Morning Star had been forced to reincarnate due to Walnut's Mark of the Departed during the battle in Kashi Town, reverting to her "egg" state and already past her hatching period.
It seemed that Morning Star's mother, Aline, intended to entrust her to Alyssa for care. After all, the growth cycle of Celestial Cats was incredibly long, and with the princess's abundant resources, Morning Star could grow faster.
However, Su Yu didn't have time to dwell on these thoughts. The half-hour login restriction had ended, and he quickly shut down his computer, grabbed his helmet, and logged back into the game.
In the sky above Oran City.
The two dukes exchanged a deep, meaningful glance after the Starcat Aileen appeared, both seeing a hint of "close call" in each other's eyes. They were aware of the Morning Star's existence and the deep connection between the princess and the Starcat race. They had even hypothesized that the princess might invite the Starcats as reinforcements, but they never expected her to actually bring them to the battlefield!
Fortunately, they had a contingency plan for this scenario. Otherwise, the arrival of the Starcat, whose power was on par with Sivana, would have led to a devastating defeat.
Duke Lantilus took a deep breath and turned to face the northeast. "Great Dragon King! You once promised me that if the Starcats appeared, you would come to our aid. Now is the time to fulfill that promise!"
As soon as Lantilus finished speaking, a colossal dragon, as massive as a small mountain, emerged from the northeast sky, its body entirely pitch-black.
"Hehe, young man, I would have appeared even if you hadn't called," the Black Dragon's voice echoed from afar, its massive wings blocking out the sun.
"Roar!"
The powerful dragon's roar swept through the battlefield, causing all the NPC soldiers and players to feel dizzy and temporarily lose their hearing.
"Strangers, leave our plane!" The Black Dragon's eyes blazed with fury, his deep voice reverberating through the sky.
The Dragon race, known for their immense power, are the strongest on average in the game's main plane. Even hatchlings are born with third-tier strength, and if they survive to adulthood, they can reach at least the sixth-tier Holy Domain.
With great power comes great responsibility.
The Dragons, possessing such powerful beings, naturally bear a significant mission.
They are primarily responsible for the safety of the main plane, preventing invasions from other planes. (Players are exempt, as they are marked by the village elder with the [Barnina Tides] seal, making them part of the main plane.)
The Starcat race lives in a sub-plane called the [Astral Plane], which the Dragons vigilantly guard against.
It's worth noting that the [Shade Hall] of the Pandaren Empire is a similar organization, constantly monitoring sub-planes like the [Astral Plane], [Void], and [Abyss]. This is why Walnut, disguised as a necromancer, attempted to ambush the Morning Star not long ago.
Upon learning of the arrival of the Astral species, this Black Dragon, the seventh-tier peak Dragon King Bahamut, agreed to Lantilus's request and personally came to deal with the Morning Star's mother.
Bahamut knew that the Morning Star's mother was summoned by Aileen and glared at her fiercely.
However, he also knew who Aileen's ancestor was, and he couldn't afford to provoke her. So, he directed his anger at the Morning Star's mother: "Stranger, I warn you one last time! Either return to the Astral Plane now, or be torn to shreds by my claws!"
"Meow~~" The Morning Star's mother arched her back, her fur standing on end.
The fury of a mother cat.
She knew that if she backed down now, Aileen would surely be defeated, and her daughter's rapid growth would be hindered. For her daughter's future, this great mother decided to fight!
"Hey, big lizard! Let's take this outside the atmosphere!" The Morning Star's mother hissed, her body tensing for battle.
Bahamut's nostrils flared, emitting a scorching dragon breath. He didn't respond verbally, instead silently rising higher into the sky and following the Morning Star's mother into space.
