Chapter 45 - An Irreversible End

Elena used up her last bit of strength to shout out.

But...

"Save you?"

Denver shook his head coldly,

"I'm sorry, your roots are all damaged. Even if I save you, you'll die of thirst because you can't drink water, won't you?"

Elena lay quietly in the river water.

Despite the intense pain in her head, she didn't even have the strength to express her suffering at this moment.

"I think it would be better if you just died here," Denver said with a sly look in his eyes. "Maybe your corpse could attract a few more river turtles for me, or even a few little squirrels that love to eat sunflower seeds."

Denver shook his head in regret, "I'm sure you must be very delicious, but unfortunately, I never eat plants. Anyway, please, charming little sunflower."

Elena's vision began to turn black.

The dizziness in her head gradually made her forget the pain.

She only felt that she was merging with the river water, all turning into... a crimson color. Finally, Elena completely lost consciousness...

Was it darkness?

No, everything before Elena's eyes was complete nothingness.

However, after an unknown period of time, Elena suddenly felt a pink light appear in the nothingness, abruptly bringing her back to reality!

Elena suddenly opened her eyes! While she was gasping for breath, she found that she was still standing in the river water, and what had just happened seemed like an incredibly real dream.

The pink crystal flower crown on her white hair was emitting a soft glow. It was this that made Elena have such a vivid dream in an instant.

"What a terrifying and strange dream...

But was it really a dream?" Elena's face was deathly pale.

After a long while, her breathing finally steadied.

"What a beautiful sunflower, you are so charming."

Suddenly, a voice made Elena's hair stand on end! She stiffly turned her head and saw a huge river turtle stick its head out of the water, staring at her with a dazed look.

The scene from the dream actually appeared? !

But immediately, Elena knew that what had just happened was not a dream, but a premonition!

[Queen's Pink Crystal Flower Crown: Made from the material of the Great Wizard's prophecy crystal ball, it can premonize potential dangers for the Queen and effectively help her avoid Class 1 risks during her adventures.]

The way the Pink Crystal Flower Crown avoids Class 1 risks is by granting her a premonitory dream that feels as real as the actual event!

"Seriously, it's only today when I saw you that I truly understood the meaning of 'a feast for the eyes'."

The river turtle smiled, but drool was flowing from its mouth.

[Your sanity -20]

Elena's body stiffened and trembled, thinking that her lower body was about to be swallowed by it, and she would only be able to lie in the bloody river water, holding her intestines, as the river water flooded her abdomen, chest, and brain...

In the face of danger, Elena shouted loudly - "Flower Fragrance Temptation!"

The river turtle happily and greedily opened its mouth full of barbs, but then a charming floral fragrance rushed into its mouth and nose, making it dazed...

A moment later.

"Do you have any orders, my bewitching Queen?"

The river turtle looked indulged but its eyes were dull as it stared at Elena, speaking as if in a trance.

Elena panted heavily, but a twisted smile couldn't help but appear at the corner of her mouth. Hehehe, ehehe...

Although her frog witchcraft had failed for unknown reasons, fortunately, the Queen's adventure set could be used perfectly!

However...

after using the premonition skill of the flower crown and the temptation skill of the flower dress consecutively, she felt her stomach growling again.

It seemed that to freely utilize the skills of these sets, she first needed to ensure that she could always fill her stomach.

Otherwise, her already thin body would be drained dry by this adventure set.

But now was not the time to be complacent. Although she had temporarily confused this damned river turtle, if she remembered correctly, the skill "Flower Fragrance Temptation" of the Queen's Low-Slashed Flower Dress could only confuse the opponent for one minute.

"Please leave here. I don't want to see you again."

Elena said coldly to the river turtle.

"This is a heart-breaking order, my charming Queen."

The river turtle looked regretful but still submerged back into the water and disappeared.

Elena finally let out a sigh of relief and quickly ran towards the riverbank. At the same time, she was puzzled.

Why hadn't the nine-headed snake, Denver, come to eat the river turtle just now?

Logically, in her premonition, Denver should have appeared by now. She looked towards the riverbank and saw Denver taking a nap with his eyes closed.

She instantly understood that Denver was able to come in her premonition because he smelled the scent of her torn flesh.

Damn that nine-headed snake.

Elena struggled to walk in the water, but after just a few steps, she felt her leg bump into a hard object in the water, causing her leg to hurt.

Elena's heart trembled, and then she saw the river turtle's head pop out of the water in front of her again.

Elena breathed carefully: "What... do you want? Didn't I already order you to leave?"

"Order? When did that happen? Besides, why should I listen to the order of my food?" The river turtle's smooth head smiled mockingly. What's going on? The one minute wasn't up yet, so why had this river turtle already woken up? Did the skills of the set not work stably in the Lost Jungle either? Elena gritted her teeth, preparing to use "

Flower Fragrance Temptation" again, even though this use might directly make her faint from hunger.

But then, she heard a series of "plop", "plop", "plop" sounds around her. One after another, river turtles poked their heads out of the water, densely packed.

They all greedily stared at her.

And each of them looked almost exactly the same! Elena's heart sank to the bottom in an instant, and her legs couldn't help but tremble...

"Dane—"

She shouted loudly, but before she could finish the "f" in "Denver", a river turtle had already bitten her throat.

Then, Elena felt darkness all around her. The dense group of river turtles directly pushed her underwater, submerging her...

It felt as if countless sharp knives were stabbing and tearing her entire body. The intense pain made it impossible for her to scream, and the tears of fear couldn't even flow out.

Because she could clearly feel her throat, eyes, flesh, and internal organs rapidly leaving her. All that remained was deep despair...

"Ts-ts-ts! I knew it, I knew it."

A huge shadow quietly spread over the turtle group.

"I knew little sunflower wouldn't disappoint me. This is truly a delicious feast, hehehe!"

As for what happened later, Elena knew it had nothing to do with her anymore, because she had once again slipped into the void of death.
