“Help!”
“Don’t come over…Don’t… Ah!”
“Don’t, don’t eat the ‘I’m Embesion’!”
“Wuwuwu… Mommy, mommy, I’m so scared!”
“Monster! I’ll fight it out with vou!”
Shouts, screams, cries for help.
Chaotic voices came from all directions like a wave, surrounding Little Seven. People’s fleeing figures, terrified faces, blood, broken limbs, and mixed among them were rotten monsters that he had never seen before.
Little Seven seemed to have been scared silly and was stunned among the fleeing refugees.
He still hadn’t realized what was going on. He had just sold a batch of daily necessities to a father and son at a low price. In the end, those ugly and cruel festered monsters rushed out of the portal and pounced on the father and son in front of Little Seven. They bit and bit them. In the end, they didn’t even let go of their corpses. They were infected and mutated into the same humanoid festered monsters in front of Little Seven.
“No…” No, no, I can’t die here…
“Nana, Nana is still waiting for me in the city. She’s pregnant…She was…She’s still waiting for me to go back and marry her…”
Little Seven’s mouth was trembling in despair, but his legs couldn’t move. This was a physiological reaction that many people had. Under great stimulation, his muscles couldn’t be controlled.
Roar!
Little Seven watched helplessly as the infected father and son pounced towards him. The huge force pressed him to the ground. At this moment, Little Seven finally seemed to be able to move. He struggled with all his might and used his palm to support the other party’s open bloody mouth.
But soon, he was exhausted. The other party’s ferocious bloody mouth was getting closer and closer to his neck. Little Seven could even smell the rotten stench.
Fortunately, at this moment, a furious roar was heard. Then, Little Seven felt her body lighten. She saw that the mutated father who had pounced on her was kicked away.
“Get up!” His thick palm pulled Little Seven up from the ground.
It turned out that this was a small group of city guards who had been scattered by the monsters, but they were different from the others who had been scared out of their wits and abandoned their weapons to escape.
Even though they were also retreating, they still split their forces to save people. There was more than one person like Little Seven. Many refugees successfully survived the monster’s claws under the cover of the city guards and followed behind the team.
However…
“Captain! We can’t save him anymore!” One of the soldiers shouted at the captain who was charging at the front.
“If this continues, our speed will be too slow. The more people we have, the more monsters we will attract. We have already lost a few brothers, captain!
What the soldier said was the truth, and it was too late.
The party could no longer retreat to Fire Code City because they had been saving people all this time. As a result, they could not run as fast as the others. By the time they came back to their senses, they were already surrounded by festered monsters.
“Captain! How… What should I do? The soldiers retreated step by step. In the desperate situation of being surrounded by the monsters, even they began to tremble with their hands holding their swords.
The refugees who were protected in the center all had pale faces. Some of them even knelt down and cried. Little Seven was in complete despair. They were like small boats in the sea, helpless and could only wait to be swallowed by the next wave.
In fact, there were quite a few teams like theirs. Because they had saved people, they had ended up in a desperate situation. After all, as the old saying went, when you met a tiger, you didn’t need to run faster than the tiger, you just needed to run faster than the others.
It was as if their fate had been decided. The soldiers and their captain were determined to die. They did not regret it because they remembered what
Commander Harvey had taught them. The army fought to protect the people.
Ironically, the soldiers who did not protect the refugees and abandoned their helmets and armor ran the fastest. Although they were barely alive, they were still alive. However, the soldiers who protected the people were surrounded and had no way to retreat.
“Kill them!”
“Kill!
The city guards who were surrounded wanted to use their flesh and blood and their lives to fight their way out of the monster horde that was like a tide from all directions.
But at this moment…
Boom!
An even louder explosion drowned out the shouts of the soldiers and the roars of the Fallen Abyss monsters.
Like a meteor shower falling from the sky, the dark blue magic energy ball was crystal clear and without any impurities. It was like a star, falling rapidly from the sky above Fire Code City towards the battlefield outside the city.
Before anyone, including the Fallen Abyss monsters, could react, it landed on the city guards who were surrounded by monsters.
The moment the ball of magic energy touched the ground, it instantly exploded. The magic power contained within it instantly flew out in all directions, turning into a powerful impact force.
In the blink of an eye, countless Fallen Abyss monsters were blasted away, and some unlucky ones in the center were directly turned into blood by the mana explosion.
“Wha… What?” Not only were the city guards and captains who were prepared to break out of the encirclement, but they were also stunned.
The escapees behind the soldiers were also shocked. Little Seven rubbed her eyes in disbelief. She couldn’t believe what was happening.
They…They were saved?
Because under this round of bombardment, yes, it could completely be described as bombardment.
The monster tide that had surrounded them so tightly that not even water could pass through was forcefully opened up into vacuum areas one after another.
“Hurry up! Now!” The captain reacted quickly.
He shouted loudly, waking up everyone who was still immersed in the magic bombardment that was like a miracle. Before the monster tide filled up the gap, they hurriedly ran in the direction of Fire Code City.
After that, the dazzling magic meteor shower did not end there. Instead, it escorted the city guards and refugees who were surrounded by the Fallen Abyss monsters.
Every time a large number of monsters were about to surround them, a dark blue ball of light would descend at the right time to create an opening for them to break through.
Just like that, the troops that were left behind successfully escaped from the monster circle one after another and returned to the main group. Although they were still far from being out of danger, at least they were not surrounded by enemies on all sides.
Phew… Phew…
Little Seven, who had finally returned to the back, sat on the ground and panted heavily.
It was only now that he, along with all the refugees and soldiers who had escaped, had the energy to find out who had saved them and who the Spell Casters of the magical meteor shower were.
Everyone thought that the Fire God Church’s mages had joined forces.
However, after looking around, Little Seven was confused because he didn’t see those noble and familiar Fire God Cult uniforms.
The people outside the city did not have magic projections, so they could only relv on their own eves.
It was only when someone finally let out a cry of joy that Little Seven quickly raised his head. He finally understood the origin of those cheers that sounded like they were saved.
That was because the huge formation and the terrifying destructive magic was not cast by a group of mages, but by a single person floating in the air.
Little Seven heard that many refugees and soldiers mistook the female Spell Caster figure in the air for Archbishop Maggie.
Indeed, it seemed that only Archbishop Maggie could do this on her own.
But…
Little Seven rubbed his eyes. His eyesight was the best among Chris ‘group, and in his eyes, the floating mage seemed to be…
He wasn’t wearing the Fire God Sect’s robe?
He didn’t know if it was Little Seven’s imagination, but he felt that the female mage was wearing the same clothes as the commoners.
Could it be…Not the lords of the Fire God Sect?
However, other than the Fire God Cult…Who else could it be?
