Chapter 3407 - : Untitled

Princess Summer was in a trance. She felt that she was back to the day when she was almost bitten by a viper in the royal garden of the Eagle Kingdom.

She vaguely remembered that it was a translucent, beautiful red snake. It looked harmless and even somewhat cute.

However, when she reached out her hand in her ignorance, the little red snake's head split open into a bloody mouth that looked like a crab's claw and bit her hand brutally.

At that time, she was very timid… She had always been timid. Her mind was blank. She did not dare or could not escape. She could only scream.

Then, with a flash of his saber, his father chopped off the viper's head and stomped on the broken body.

Princess Summer remembered that her father, the king of the Eagle Kingdom, the invincible, invincible hero in her heart, had hugged her tightly.

Her father's hairy beard gave her a warm sense of security. She was like a nestling that could not bear to leave its nest and wanted to curl up inside for the rest of her life.

"Don't be scared, my baby. It is already dead."

The king of the Eagle Nation said, "Dad killed it. Dad will protect you forever."

"Really?"

Princess Summer remembered her young and ignorant self. Holding back her tears of fear, she asked in a trembling voice, "Will Daddy really protect Summer forever?"

"Hahahaha!"

The king's laughter was like thunder on a summer afternoon. His strong chest was shaking softly, giving the princess a sense of security. "Of course. You are my most lovely daughter and the pearl of the entire Eagle Kingdom. I and the people of the Eagle Kingdom will protect you, dote on you, and make you happy forever. I swear!"

Princess Summer remembered that she was greatly relieved when she heard her father's words.

From then on, she would have nothing to worry about, nothing to do. She would listen to her father and live a carefree life forever.

However, the next scene that popped up in his head was his father lying in a pool of blood with his uncle's long sword stabbed into his body.

He was not dead yet. But he was staring at his daughter, who was hiding in a corner, with regret and regret.

There was no telling whether or not he regretted pouring too much love on his daughter before his death and raising her into a caged canary. When disaster befell them, his daughter could do nothing except watch him bleed out.

Princess Summer remembered that her head was blank when she stumbled out of the palace. Other than extreme fear and confusion, she did not have the courage to hate her uncle at all, like a mouse that had been swallowed by a cat.

She seemed to have heard that, after her uncle killed her father and failed to locate her, she burst into laughter in the palace. "Run, my dear Ah Xia. That's all you can do anyway!"

"Dad, you are wrong. You are really wrong."

Tears in her eyes, Princess Summer said, "Nobody can protect me forever except myself. Not you, not the citizens of the Eagle Kingdom, not the gods and demons in the legends, and only myself. I…"

The excruciating pain vaporized her tears, and Princess Summer returned to reality.

She was tied up by Black Jack's tentacles. Her eyes were red and then black, and the world around her was so twisted that she was almost suffocated.

Bloody bodies were lying everywhere. The devilized people, who did not believe it, gathered their last courage and launched a new round of attacks on Black Jack. Then, they turned into broken, bloody remains.

Hela the dragoness, Natasha the captain of the mercenary group, Vera the elf, and Keer the cat girl were still under Black Jack's control, although Princess Summer could sense that their grieving souls were sending out feeble ripples in response to her call.

But they had lost themselves for too long, and Black Jack was too strong for Princess Summer to wake them up by herself.

"Now, do you still believe in hope?"

With the support of several tentacles, Black Jack slowly floated to Princess Summer and smiled at her. At the same time, he waved one of the thinner tentacles and extended it to the center of Princess Summer's eyebrow. "Or maybe, after suffering enough, you will wake up and change your mind. Instead of asking for trouble, you will return to my embrace?"

Princess Summer looked at him and suddenly found him hilarious.

It was odd that he had fallen for such a clown in the past. He must've been blind!

"Bah."

Princess Summer spat on the ground like the cruelest women on the street.

Black Jack narrowed his eyes. "Swoosh." The ends of the tentacles split apart like the petals of a crab and turned into a bloody mouth.

Everything seemed to have returned to when Princess Summer was six.

No, it was different.

At six years old, she could only scream.

But right now, she had learned how to smile.

Besides, she was holding her broken saber.

Come on. You won't be arrogant for long. I've bought you enough time. Han Te and Jade have gone back for help. The fleet from the Pangu Universe will annihilate you for sure! Princess Summer thought to herself.

Or rather, she hoped so.

"Hiss!"

The bloody mouth full of fangs opened like a snake head and bit at her brutally.

She squeezed out the last bit of her strength from the depths of her soul and slashed at the tentacles behind the bloody mouth with her broken saber.

Black Jack's lips curled into a contemptuous smile.

The devilized people who were still alive looked at Princess Summer, who was about to die miserably, with admiration and regret.

However, in the next second—

White brilliance was blinking. The snake head formed by the expansion of the tentacles flew up high. Blood was spurting out, and the broken tentacles were dancing crazily. Black Jack screamed in shock and pain.

"Let go of the girl. Your opponent is me!"

A voice that was both familiar and strange entered Princess Summer's ears like lightning, making her eyes widen in disbelief.

Then, Princess Summer felt that the pressure all over her body was greatly relieved. The tentacles that had tied her up all hissed and retreated.

She lost her restraints and fell from the sky, only to fall into another warm and soft embrace. She saw the big, watery eyes that seemed to contain the stars of the universe, the pride that had once made her a human being.

"Han… Special… Theresa!"

Princess Summer was both surprised and delighted. She had not cried when she was fighting Black Jack, no matter how painful it was. But right now, she could not control her tears at all. "You—you didn't leave. You—you changed back?"

"Yes, I didn't."

Holding the beauty in her arms, Theresa smiled. "We talked about fighting side by side, didn't we?"

"Yes, but—"

Princess Summer could not stop her eyes from sliding from Theresa's chest to her abs. "Your—your scent is getting stronger. Are you really, uh—"

"Yes. I made my choice.

Theresa said solemnly, "Don't worry about me. It's just a minor injury. There's no need to worry about it. You'll get used to it sooner or later. Besides, there are benefits to it.

"…What benefits?" Princess Summer could not help but ask.

Theresa was silent for a long time.

"It's cooler this way."

She said gloomily.

Then, he put Princess Summer on the ground softly and stood straight. He stared at Black Jack with the hottest, most hateful, and most furious eyes in the entire universe.
