My Little Pony: Changelings

Chapter 172: Heart of Snowstorm (4)

At that time, inside the Crystal Castle, Radiant Hope was making the baby happy. The baby was also very cute, but she was a little too lively.

Radiant Hope chases Pinkie Pie around the room, and she is dragged around the room by the baby Alicorn, who occasionally fires dangerous magic.

"Peach, hurry up and grab the baby."

"I'll try my best~"

"The baby's energy is so high that my lullaby doesn't work at all, and the things in the book don't seem to have any effect on the Alicorn baby."

"Maybe she'll stop when the baby gets tired."

On the other side, Sombra was looking at Shining Armor who was secretly looking outside. He looked very nervous, and Rainbow Dash flew over and handed two helmets to Shining Armor.

"Don't be nervous, just give this to them."

As Shining Armor put his helmet on the pony, the other ponies silently stepped back. The pure crystals and very pure crystals that Rarity had chosen made Shining Armor even more upset.

Helplessly, Rarity helped Shining Armor take care of his hair, while Rainbow Dash and the others helped Shining Armor choose the royal guards. At this time, Princess Cadence and Princess Sun and Moon came over.

"Okay, I've chosen the Royal Guard, the Pure Crystal, and the Crystal Master, so all we need is..."

"Baby."

When Princess Cadence said these two words, Shining Armor collapsed again. Laughter rang out from the side, and Radiant Hope came over with the baby on her back.

"Oh~ I'm right, it's easy to take care of a baby."

As long as you ignore her messy sideburns, this sentence is still good. Shining Armor was relieved when he saw it. Princess Cadence used magic to bring the baby to her side, and Radiant Hope walked to Sombra's side.

"How do you feel now?"

"Uh...I can't really say. So far everything has been going well."

"That's right. After all, Sombra is our friend."

Spike next to him also said it proudly. After all, he took Sombra for a simple tour around the area and acted as a tour guide to talk about the interesting things that the Crystal Empire added after Sombra and the others left.

Suddenly, the baby's crying was so loud that the other ponies covered their ears. But that was not the worst. The worst thing was that the crystal heart was shattered.

"No, Crystal Heart!"

When Sombra saw this, he immediately became nervous. He knew better than any of the ponies present what would happen to the Crystal Empire without the Crystal Heart. Even during his reign, he did not destroy the Crystal Heart, because the Crystal Heart could not only protect against the wind and snow, but also support the barrier of the prison. No, not only the Wasteland Shadow Demon and the Snow Demon, but also those...

"Those monsters created by the Yellow Devil!"

After muttering something in a low voice, Sombra used magic to try to restore the crystal heart to its original state. The impact of the magic caused a gust of wind. When Hope Radiance saw it, he immediately shouted.

"Sombra, calm down."

"We must restore the Crystal Heart as soon as possible, otherwise not only the Crystal Empire but even Equestria will be in danger."

Spike grabbed the display curtain, but unexpectedly, the screws on it were loose, and the entire curtain was lifted off by Spike, exposing the entire scene on the display stand to Crystal Pony's eyes.

Sombra was distracted by the situation for a moment, and the magic disappeared. The crystal heart only lasted for a moment before it broke into pieces. The crystal ponies who saw this scene gasped.

"Ahhh!!! Crystal Heart is broken!"

"King Sombra is back!"

"Help!"

Looking at the crystal ponies running around like headless flies in the audience, their manes became listless again, and fear spread throughout the entire Crystal Square.

"No, listen to my explanation!"

Sombra wanted to explain, but the more he did so, the more scared the other crystal ponies became. In return, green fear magic appeared in the corners of Sombra's eyes again.

"No, calm down, calm down everyone!"

However, this scene made the other Crystal Ponies even more frightened. In just a moment, all the Crystal Ponies ran into the house and hid inside, trembling.

Black Crystal's eyes twitched. He was already annoyed by the crystal heart, and a group of disobedient crystal ponies were running around. He kicked the ground hard with his hoof in anger, but he didn't expect to find something unexpected.

Inside the crystal shop, Starlight Glimmer was bored listening to Sunlight Shining talk about the history of crystal. It was so boring. Suddenly she thought of something, and Starlight Glimmer instantly became interested. She quickly covered Sunlight Shining's mouth and spoke.

"Oh, how about we go play Dungeons and Dragons? We haven't played that in a while."

After hearing this, Riguang Yaoyao thought for a moment and then nodded. He also liked playing this. Although he didn't play it much now, seeing how happy Xingguang Yiyi was, he also wanted to reminisce about his childhood.

At this moment, the strange sound suddenly changed, and the black crystal placed next to it began to multiply like fungi. First, black lightning shot out from it, and then the crystal began to grow and spread continuously. In just a moment, the entire crystal shop was surrounded by black crystals.

"This... This is totally impossible. These crystals are clearly..."

"Sunny, forget about the crystals, just run!"

Sunlight was a little surprised when he saw this scene. When he was about to say something impossible, Starlight pulled him out. Then they saw an incredible scene in the Crystal Empire.

Black clouds were floating in the sky, and they were coming towards the Crystal Empire with a howling cold wind. The dark clouds were pressing down on the city, and the ice and snow with the biting cold wind were floating in the sky so brazenly.

On the ground, most of the Crystal Empire's crystals turned back to black and red, as if they had emerged from other crystal shops and then assimilated ordinary crystals after touching them.

"Something's wrong. Logically speaking, with the existence of Crystal Heart, how did the Crystal Empire become so terrifying?"

"I don't know. Maybe we can ask Twilight Sparkle and the others. Quick! Let's rush out before these black crystals surround us!"

Looking at the black crystal clouds all over the sky, he took a deep breath, and after calming himself down, his magic power burst out and reached the sky. The waved magic power dispersed all the black clouds around him, but at the same time, more black clouds emerged from outside, and he could vaguely see a snow demon flying in the distance.

"This is not a solution. Can you guys think of any other way to restore Crystal Love?"

Princess Celestia stopped Rainbow Dash who was about to help, whispered something to Princess Moon, and flew into the sky, ready to deal with the snow demon to prevent it from awakening more companions.
