Elena's mental state recovered much faster than Lu Cheng had imagined. The news that her mother was still alive was not bad news for anyone.
It took her three seconds to accept this reality, and then she took Lu Cheng directly to the room where she used to live and began to search for relics related to her mother.
But there was nothing that could be considered a clue among the relics Elena found.
"Didn't your mother have the habit of keeping a diary?"
Lu Cheng looked at the pile of strange things that Elena took out from the small wooden box. Judging from these fancy toys, Elena should have lived a normal childhood as a little princess.
"It seems not."
Elena searched the room again, but still couldn't find anything useful.
The only thing related to her mother in the whole room was an oil painting hanging on the wall. From the painting, her mother seemed to be a mature woman with red hair and red eyes, not like Elena who had black hair and red eyes.
If Elena's power was inherited from her mother... Lu Cheng turned around and looked at Elena who lifted her princess bed with one hand. An invisible sense of threat kept rising in Lu Cheng's heart.
This threat has existed since Lucheng learned about the Church of Purity's dragon-transforming potion.
After scales appeared on Elena's body, not only did her appetite increase, but her strength also increased. Moreover, Elena could control her strength very easily. For example, when she picked up chopsticks, she would not use so much force that the chopsticks would not break.
Lu Cheng walked around the room where Elena lived as a child and found a round stone table.
"Elena, can you arm wrestle with me?"
Lu Cheng sat at the stone round table and made a request... a request that should never be made when going into a girl's room alone with her.
"Arm wrestling?"
Elena's face was still stained with the dust from the mausoleum. If Lu Cheng hadn't spoken, she might have turned her room upside down to look for clues related to her mother.
The word "upside down" here is not a metaphor. Lu Cheng believes that Elena can easily move all the bricks in the room.
"It's just a way of comparing strength. Just sit down first. If the clue to your mother's whereabouts is really in this room, she won't run away." Lu Cheng said.
Elena obediently sat opposite Lu Cheng.
“Put your hands on the table like this.”
Lu Cheng placed his right arm on the surface of the stone table, and Elena followed Lu Cheng's action and placed her right hand on the table.
Before Elena realized what Lu Cheng was going to do, Lu Cheng reached out and held Elena's hand. The moment Lu Cheng touched Elena's palm, she felt a cool touch.
"Yes! Do you want to make another bet?" Elena was suddenly grabbed by Lu Cheng, and her whole body became very stiff. This stiffness did not last long, and Elena said this sentence in a voice with a hint of fright.
"Bet? What do you want to bet on?" Lu Cheng was still a little confident in his current strength. If it was the previous Elena, Lu Cheng should still have some chance of winning.
I just don't know to what extent those scales have enhanced Elena's power.
"I haven't… thought about it yet." Elena said, "Just… just agree to something."
"Okay, I agree, but don't go too far." Lu Cheng was very curious about what request Elena would make, but the prerequisite was that Elena could win the game.
At this moment, Elena entered the serious mode. Lu Cheng also took a deep breath and began to count down from three to one. When the countdown to one ended, Lu Cheng felt a huge pressure suddenly coming from his right hand.
It feels like having a ton of weight on the back of your hand, and the weight alone is enough to burst your blood vessels.
Lu Cheng's body, strengthened by the Saint Crystal, could withstand this kind of power, but he could only withstand it...
In less than two seconds, Lu Cheng's arm muscles began to feel sore and numb. He knew that if he continued like this, he wouldn't be able to last even three seconds in front of the queen.
The magic power from the Holy Crystal was poured into Lu Cheng's body at this moment, further enhancing his strength. Elena also showed an expression of effort on her face.
So Elena further increased her strength, which also led to... Lu Cheng heard signs of cracks on the stone table below.
"That Elena..." Lu Cheng tried to remind Elena in a choked voice.
Lovely Lianna could no longer hear Lu Cheng's words. At this moment, there was only obsession with victory in her eyes.
Sorry! I want to win!
The confrontation between the strong often only takes a moment. Traces of scales began to appear on Elena's right hand. The moment the red scales appeared on the back of Elena's hand, the stone table shattered into pieces.
This also caused Lu Cheng and Elena to lose their balance, and they fell to the ground along with the stone table which shattered into pieces.
The posture of falling to the ground was also a little subtle. Elena's right hand was always tightly clasped with Lu Cheng's right hand, and now Lu Cheng was lying on the ground, looking up at Elena with glowing eyes.
"Yes...I won, right?" Elena asked.
"I think this round should be considered a draw." Lu Cheng appeared very calm, because this was not the first time he had encountered such a situation.
But there are still people who are not calm when seeing this situation, such as Elena's sister Mela.
She ran straight over after hearing the loud noise in Elena's room. Before she had the chance to ask what happened inside, she saw her dull sister pressing Lu Cheng under her. She suddenly felt as if her Elena had finally come to her senses... moved
"Am I disturbing you?" Mela is a person who knows how to read the atmosphere. She knows that what she should do at this time is to leave directly.
"I don't think so."
Lu Cheng struggled a little and broke free from Elena's grasp. When Lu Cheng sat up from the ground and simply moved his right hand, he found that the muscle damage in his right hand was so serious that he needed to call an ambulance to take him to the emergency room.
Lu Cheng looked at the cracks on the ground beside him again. The bones of ordinary humans were as fragile as potato chips in front of Elena's tremendous power.
In the past, Lu Cheng thought that there should be a tiger living inside this girl, but Lu Cheng found out that he was wrong...there should be a Godzilla living inside her.
Lu Cheng's cell phone rang at this moment. There were several messages from the contact headquarters. The general content of the messages was to ask Lu Cheng to return to the meeting room as soon as possible.
"Elena, do you have any money to pay for my medical expenses?" Lu Cheng put down his phone and subconsciously supported his body with his right hand, but the severe pain made Lu Cheng sit down on the ground again.
"Medical expenses? How much do you want?"
When Elena heard Lu Cheng's words, she was frightened and took out her wallet with the Wangzai Milk logo on it and asked.
"Just kidding, I'm fine."
The injury on Lu Cheng's right hand began to recover rapidly under the nourishment of the magic power of the Holy Crystal. This efficiency was much faster than putting on a plaster in the emergency room.
