"She's a woman who's nearly a hundred years old, she's a woman who's nearly a hundred years old..."
Latis silently murmured to himself as he laboriously stepped into the pile of clothes and retrieved the magnificent queen's gown from the top.
He handed the dress to Pallas, and was momentarily stunned as he watched her obediently clasp her hands together, sitting like a duck among the pile of clothes, waiting.
"She's a loli, she's a loli... Ugh, what am I thinking!"
Pallas, unaware of Latis's twisted thoughts, took the dress and said as she changed:
"It's been so long, I've forgotten that I was such a small little girl before I became cubed... Before, I could easily pick up clothes and change them with just a little effort, so my palace didn't have any maids. Um, Mr. Latis, could you help me with this zipper?"
"oh oh!"
Latis snapped out of his daze, took a deep breath, squatted down, and shakily reached his hand toward Pallas's round and small buttocks... and slowly pulled up the zipper above.
"Thank you."
Pallas turned around, lifting her skirt, and looked at Latis, who was squatting and about the same height as her when standing. She couldn't help but sigh sadly, then smiled and said:
"Mr. Latis, are you leaving?"
"Is it that obvious?" Latis scratched his head and said:
"Actually, no. Things here aren't over yet. I think I'll go with Mu Mu and the others to look for more traces of gods. But I guess I won't see you for a while."
“I see…” Pallas sighed silently, then smiled slightly:
"I really envy my master and the others. They can recover their strength so quickly and run around everywhere. I wonder how long it will take for my body to grow up. My appearance as a child must look strange, right?"
"That's all for now!" Latis stood up, ruffled Pallas's hair, laughed at her reluctant expression, walked out of the changing room, and waved back, saying:
"See you in a while, my little queen."
"Really, I've been queen for a very, very long time..." Pallas muttered, then smiled slightly and bowed to Latis.
……
"Something feels off, Pallas..."
Latis walked out of the bedroom and muttered to himself, then suddenly paused, scratched his head, and thought:
"Could she like me? No, Latis, don't go on like that. What if she's just not used to it?"
"Let's go back and check first..."
He hesitated for a moment, then quietly walked back to the bedroom, leaned against the door frame of the dressing room, and peeked out.
……
"So this is what I look like..." Pallas stared blankly at herself in the dressing mirror, muttering, "I'm such a little girl. Can someone like me be trusted as Queen?"
After a moment of silence, she shook her head again, cupped her fluffy chestnut-brown pigtails, and smiled gently at herself in the mirror:
"You've been in power for so many years, why worry about gains and losses? Pallas, you are certainly trustworthy."
"It's just... a little lonely." She sighed, sat back down on the floor, stared blankly at the top of the dressing mirror, and murmured:
"Grandmaster Meow Nubis and him...the kind of thing they did..."
Pallas looked confused, slightly lifted her skirt, and hesitantly reached out her hand.
……
"Oh no, am I about to be born?"
Latis leaned against the wall, wiped his sweat, and was about to leave when he suddenly hesitated.
"Wait a minute, if I leave like this, wouldn't I be worse off than someone born into poverty?"
He took a deep breath, stood up, and put on a righteous and awe-inspiring expression.
"There's no other way, I guess I'll just have to be the one who gives birth, she's already like this..."
Latis quickly and successfully convinced himself, flashing a hearty grin as he strode to the changing room door and slammed it open.
"Oh, little queen."
He looked at Pallas, who was limp and resting her head on the dressing mirror, his gaze sweeping over her soaked white stockings and dress. He coughed and said to her bewildered eyes:
Need any help? Someone like me can temporarily play your knight, you know.
……
Before the Lolita Queen could react, you'd already grabbed her ice cream and stuffed it into your mouth. Seeing the mature queen's childlike bewildered expression, you suddenly felt like a complete idiot!
With Pallas's tacit approval, you examined her body, and although you ultimately found the size to be somewhat incompatible, you still once again showcased your golden right hand as a bass master in the Queen's Garden.
[The rhythm of rock is in your right hand, the soul in your left, your heart is the universe, what you play is freedom! The Queen whispered a cheer for your bass technique; this is the first time you've received applause as a bassist.]
The long afternoon flew by, and when you returned to the old women at Meownubis's summons, you were surprised to find Mumu catching up with a pink-haired boy—none other than Api!
"Great-Grandma, that's roughly the situation. I really can't stand my great-grandfather anymore, so I'm planning to move to the royal city alone from now on..." Api said with a sigh.
"That brat, he's disgraced our family like this! I'll break his legs when I get back!" Mu Mu said through gritted teeth.
Upon seeing you return, Appi nodded gratefully, without offering many words of thanks. He took a deep breath and said with a serious expression, "The Ender Dragon is in trouble..."
[It turns out that Api, like Mumu, possessed the potential to become a demon warrior, and upon arriving in the End, he naturally began to cultivate.]
However, compared to Mumu, who was more skilled in soul magic, Appi studied the laws of darkness in the End. Yet, the more he researched magic, the more alarmed he became to discover that the Ender Dragons were fundamentally incompatible with the power of the End. In other words, these nine Ender Dragons were likely fake!
"Wait, nine?" You couldn't help but interrupt Api's narration, exchanging glances with Mumu and the others. A startling conjecture surfaced in your mind, and you murmured to yourself:
"Could it be that the gods themselves have also split themselves apart and stuffed themselves into this blocky world?"
"What's he trying to achieve this time? Won't the power level of each fragment decrease after being split up?" Mu Mu couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know, but anyway, I think we need to go to the End." You said with a determined look in your eyes, "Nine Ender Dragons, whether they're gods in disguise or not, wow, that's way more exciting than Monster Hunter's Night Wyvern Parade."
After a brief discussion, you and Api returned to the camp and headed straight for the mine.
Before descending into the mine, you couldn't help but glance back at the dimly lit forest. For some reason, you felt as if many eyes were watching you...
After the block system was removed, the two-block-high mine tunnels appeared much narrower. Bathed in the shimmering light of Cancan's golden armor, you reached the end of the tunnels and once again found yourself before the End portal.
"Let's go." You gripped Nubis's soft hand and jumped into the portal with the others. Amidst a dizzying surge, you saw a dark world slowly unfold before you.
Chapter 130 The World's Bassist!
Countless obsidian pillars stand on the yellowish sand, hidden in the dim mist.
Latis looked up at the faint dragon shadow in the sky, stroked his chin, and said:
"It feels like upgrading Minecraft to a AAA game after applying a graphics mod..."
“I’ve destroyed all the devices on the stone pillars; they should be unable to recover their strength now,” Api said, sword in hand, maintaining a fighting stance.
"You're so good at fighting? From now on, we might as well call you War God Skin." Latis remarked, exchanging a glance with the insect that had perfectly blended into the darkness, and asked:
"Did you find anything?"
"The aura of a god." The insect showed a disgusted expression and stuck out its tongue.
"Since that's the case, then let's fight!" A brilliant golden light suddenly erupted from Can Can's body. She started her attack with zero frames, and a huge magic rune appeared on her golden sword. A surge of magical power, comparable to a forbidden spell, burst forth like a tidal wave. She raised her eyebrows and shouted loudly:
“The sun is shining!”
boom!
The simplest of spells outlined a sun in the sky, accompanied by the roar of a furious dragon and the sound of rising mist, and the sun began to shine brightly.
“I’m so…” Latis murmured, utterly shocked as he looked at the fiery sunset.
"The bigger it is, the more classy it is..."
A major battle is about to break out!
[CanCan leaped forward first, using her suddenly extended golden chain to entangle the body of an Ender Dragon. Amidst the sizzling sounds and the Ender Dragon's painful howls, the golden chain melted and pierced the dragon's body. Laughing wildly, she released a golden barrier to block the Ender Dragon's protective energy waves and plunged her golden sword into the dragon's back.]
The worm, like a soft-bodied creature, silently clung to the other dragon, corroding its body like a leech. The miniature house it carried with it had shrunk even further, twisting and deforming the dragon's spine under its weight.
You turn your gaze to Mumu and Meownubis. As soul mages, they don't employ the same sweeping, powerful attacks as the others. You can only deduce their attack progress from the Ender Dragon's dwindling protective energy waves.
Compared to the majestic, god-like Nubis who manipulates souls, Mumu, wielding his longsword, seems to be battling a dragon-shaped soul. Every now and then, torn shadows fall to the ground, instantly vaporizing.
[Api, on the other hand, relied purely on combat skills. Against him, all sorts of flying bone spikes and light waves were defended flawlessly, and he even managed to counterattack!]
"I should be able to do something too..." Watching the other mages and Appi begin their battle, you thought for a moment, then, as an Ender Dragon swooped and glided past you, you pulled out a rope, lassoed its neck, jumped onto it, and began frantically slashing with your longsword.
Snapped!
Latis glanced back at his hip armor, which was half-corroded from parrying the Ender Dragon's power, and immediately frowned.
"That won't do..."
He looked up at his comrades who were gradually losing ground in the fight against the Ender Dragons, clicked his tongue, and his gaze suddenly sharpened.
"It seems that's the only way..."
Having said that, he pulled a bass guitar from his backpack, took a deep breath, and murmured:
"Hopefully it will work..."
The shouts of mages and the whistling of spells reached Latis's ears. The backspins of the Ender Dragon were embedded in his hip armor, making a sharp, grating sound. However, the moment he looked up, all the sounds suddenly faded away, leaving only the metallic sound of his bass being plucked.
"Ace of spades! Go!"
He shouted, and just as the first section ended, a deafening explosion suddenly shattered the entire battlefield.
"I'm super!"
Latis quickly hooked his foot onto the rope, twisted his waist and desperately clung to the back of the Ender Dragon, which had suddenly plummeted ten meters. He watched as the Ender Dragons, who were fighting with others, all turned to look at him in an instant. Ignoring the cold sweat on his forehead, he immediately started the second section.
"Damn, I didn't feel this explosion was this powerful under the rules of the blocky world!"
He groaned inwardly as the Ender Dragon jolted him up and down. Although the Ender Dragon could no longer lock onto him and attack after he picked up the bass, it was certain that there was something strange on its back and it had to concentrate its firepower on taking it down first!
"Damn it, let's go for it!"
Latis shouted, his face hardening. He stopped dodging the extended backstab and decisively raised his feet, plunging them deep into the Ender Dragon's backstab.
"Ouch! Ouch!"
He laughed, then suddenly his expression changed. Looking at the Ender Dragon Tail Spike that had instantly locked onto him because he had stopped strumming, he quickly plucked his bass.
boom! boom! boom! boom!
