Translator: 549690339
“Sir… ”
Just as the maid was about to wave at the dumbstruck Chris, she suddenly lowered her head and looked at the ground under her feet.
Buzz… Buzz…
A faint vibration came from below.
Immediately after, the maid panicked and subconsciously grabbed the railing beside her.
Because she noticed that a few stones next to her leather shoes began to roll uncontrollably, and the extent of the rolling became more and more intense.
Without a doubt, the ground was shaking.
Soon, it wasn’t just the maidservant. Many of the Fire Code City’s residents who had gathered in the Fire God Square also noticed the abnormality.
“How… What’s wrong?
“Could it be an earthquake? This is the first time I’ve encountered an earthquake in Fire Code City!
“No, no, no. No, no, no, this is not an earthquake!”
“You guys…Look at the projection outside the city, look at the direction of the portal!?
“Then! What is that?”
Perhaps it was the increasingly intense vibration of the ground, or perhaps it was the chaotic voices of the residents of Fire Code City in the surrounding square.
Chris snapped back to his senses.
He raised his head and looked at the magic projection like everyone else.
And then…
Chris did the same thing as everyone else.
Stomp…
Ta Ta…
He almost instinctively took a few steps back and let out a terrified sound.
“Then… What is that?”
Yeah, what was that?
Since the portal was still some distance away from the city, the magic projection could not capture everything.
All they could see was the black dots that represented the last group of soldiers who were supposed to be responsible for bringing up the rear. After they ran out of the portal, the huge portal that should have been closed was still open.
No, it should not be called opening.
It should be…
It was still operating.
Because after a few breaths, the teleportation gate once again flashed with the light of transportation. This time, the commotion was unprecedentedly large, even surpassing the peak period of the refugees ‘teleportation.
One black spot, two black spots…
Although the distance was too far, the image was a little blurry.
However, there was no doubt that these black figures coming out of the portal were definitely not the refugees from Red Flame Town. In fact, they were definitely not…lt looked like a human.
Ten, a hundred, a thousand…
In the blink of an eye, a large number of unknown figures were spat out by the teleportation gate and landed outside the Fire Code City.
After a short pause…
Just like a black tide heading towards the fire code city direction, heading towards the city, just built up good, haven’t settled down refugee camp position, like a locust like. It surged!
As the distance between them rapidly shortened, screams of terror once again rang out from the mouths of many Fire Code City residents in the square.
This was because they could see the true appearance of the black dots that ran out of the portal.
It had the appearance of a demon, but its flesh was rotten and festering.
They didn’t look like living creatures at all, but they were different from pure Undead creatures. In their scarlet eyes, one could only see brutality. They were like walking corpses, crazy corpses that could move.
When these monsters bordered the refugee camp and fought with the city guards, they seemed to have no pain or weakness.
All of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden,
all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, all of a sudden, The most terrifying part was yet to come.
When the festered monster left the soldier’s body and attacked its next target, who would have thought that the soldier whose throat had been bitten and whose face was badly mutilated would actually stand up shakily. He was infected and turned into the same festered monster, pouncing on his companion.
There weren’t many City Guards outside the city, and they were extremely weak. Under such a situation, they fell apart. Many soldiers threw down their weapons and only wanted to run towards Fire Law City.
And losing the resistance is equivalent to exposing the entire refugee camp, and the claws of the corrupted monsters.
“Little Seven!” ” Ahh!” Seeing this scene, he couldn’t help but shout. He immediately thought of his brothers who were still in the refugee camp outside the city.
Damn it!
Why didn’t he notice it earlier?
Chris sprinted towards the secret passage outside the city. At this moment, his heart was filled with regret and self-blame.
He had a bad premonition from the start, but he didn’t pay much attention to it. It was also an opportunity to eavesdrop on Count Sisre’s words, but he still didn’t grasp it. It was only now that he understood.
Bastard!
Why?
Why did he do such a thing?
Nervous, anxious, angry, and with all sorts of emotions, Chris finally ran to the entrance of the secret passage.
However…
Just as he was about to reach out to open the entrance to the secret passage outside the city, Chris realized that his hand was trembling non-stop.
Even though he was unwilling to admit it.
But…
That was fear.
After running all the way, Chris regained some of his rationality from his impulse to save someone. However, it was this damn rationality that made his hand, which should have opened the secret passage without hesitation, stop in mid-air.
You…
What are you still hesitating for!
Quickly open it! Then go to the refugee camp outside the city and save your brothers from the monsters!
Even though Chris was screaming in his heart, he couldn’t help but think back to the scene in the Fire God Square. The image of the terrifying festered monsters in the magic projection, as well as the soldier who had been infected and mutated after being eaten by the festered monsters.
In an instant, the image of him festering all over, his muscles atrophying, his intestines torn open, and his body standing up shakily, turning into an ugly monster appeared in front of Chris ‘eyes.
“No, no, no…”
Chris retreated several steps and finally fell to the ground with a thud.
Just like Damir, the current Chris was far from the Chris who would lead the
Treasure Thief Gang and become the Underground Emperor of Fire Code City.
Right now, Chris was just an unknown hooligan. At most, he was a local tyrant.
Between brotherhood and his own safety, Chris chose the latter.
He didn’t have the courage to open the door of the secret passage because he was afraid that he would be drowned by the festered monsters as soon as he went out.
Therefore…
Chris escaped.
He had always thought that he was someone who valued friendship and loyalty, someone who could sacrifice his life for his brothers. However, when reality was placed in front of him, Chris realized that he was wrong.
He was…He was a scumbag, a coward.
He was not qualified to be someone else’s boss.
“Wuwuwu…” Hiding in the familiar dark corner of the alley, Chris’s face was full of tears.
“Damn it! Damn it! Chris, you coward, you coward! Why did you run away? Why didn’t you save them! ”
The young man burst into tears as he clenched his fists and slammed them against the wall.
‘ Carlos still has his paralyzed mother to take care of at home…Dash’s sister’s tuition fees were still waiting for him to pay…Lugo was about to collect the money for the Mana Awakening Potion, and Little Seven…Little Seven…Nana was still waiting for Little Seven to marry her!!
They had been waiting for this moment for five years, five years!
“Chris, you bastard! Bastard! They…They were all followers who trusted you and treated you as their boss, but at this moment… When they need you the most…
But you… But you…He didn’t save them! All she knew was to stay here and talk nonsense!
“It’s all gone, it’s all gone…”
“Woo… Wuwuwu…”
In the end, Chris seemed to have lost all his strength. His back slid against the wall of the alley and he fell to the ground. He curled up in a corner and buried his head deep in his arms, leaving only sobs.
However, at this moment…
“It’s alright.”
“After all, everyone is afraid sometimes, right?”
A soft female voice that Chris found familiar came from beside him.
When Chris looked up, his face was already covered in tears. The person opposite him was the little girl from the countryside whom he had met twice in the castle of the Sisre family.
“You… You…” Chris looked at the little girl’s face blankly. He was speechless for a moment and did not know what to say. “I used to be like you.”
“But until I met her and then met him.
“That’s why I can bravely take this step now!
Just as Chris’s mind went blank, he subconsciously wanted to ask the little girl opposite him what she meant by those words and what she meant by taking this step…
“This distance should be enough…” Vivian looked away from Chris and looked out of the city, muttering to herself.
Then, a series of complicated and obscure incantations came out of the little girl’s mouth.
Under Chris ‘stunned gaze, Vivian’s original rustic and silly country girl temperament was completely swept away.
At this moment, Vivian’s eyes were shining like sapphires.
As she chanted, the strong magic power in the girl’s body surged out crazily, forming a powerful airflow that blew the little girl’s clothes and her long hair.
At the same time, the excess mana turned into blue starlight in the air and surrounded the girl like a fairy.
At this moment, there was only one word left in Chris’s mind. It was the only adjective he could think of as a hooligan who wandered the streets all day and had no cultural background.
Goddess.
The micro-teleportation spell to the outside of the Fire Code City was ready.
At the last moment when she stepped into the teleportation array on the ground, she seemed to have thought of something. The little girl paused for a moment and then said to Chris, who had already short-circuited,
“Well, thank you for the hint you gave me in the castle before, although I don’t quite understand what it means… Ah, I almost forgot about the travel expenses you gave me back in Fire Code City! ”
“So in return…”
“I’ll help you get your friends and everyone else outside the city…. Bring it back together!
