Chapter 345: City in Peril
Chapter 345: City in Peril
Almost unconsciously, like breathing, Ingrid was using the merged aura of magma with Blood Origin. Of course, the aura wasn’t just something that made her more empowered, looking much more powerful, but it was also a form of passive skill, and her aura not only increased her attack power but also increased her attack speed, as well. the speed she could exert her Qi.
Ingrid raised her hand in front of her before activating the attack, from which five balls of magma with cores made of blood the size of a soccer ball shot out, each flying towards different targets.
*Splat! splat! Splat!*
The balls mixed with magma and blood slammed into the bodies of the giant rats, resulting in a terribly quick and painful death at the same time, evident in their terrible screams of pain in their final moment just how painful it must have been.
Luna approached her. He had realized that a nearby town was about to be invaded, even though he is not a saint, he didn’t want to see such a bloody scene with multiple victims.
“Ingrid, I’m going out for a while. I will leave one of my little dragons with you.” Luan tapped her shoulder: “I will also be recharging your Qi.”
“Okay.” Ingrid knew it was useless to say this, but she still said, “Be careful.”
“Oh, you too.” Luan smiled.
Right after filling Ingrid’s Qi and removing all the exhaustion from her, he made a little white dragon appear and hover around Ingrid, then Luan went towards the city.
With the cloud below his feet, Luan headed towards the city. His speed wasn’t low, in a matter of seconds he was just above the city.
“The gate was broken by the giant rats!”
“Relief!”
“Ahhh, they’re invading!”
“Quick, go east, there’s a secret passage there!”
“My God, save me!”
“I want my daddy! Where is my daddy?”
“Ahhhh!”
The same boy who cried in search of his father was knocked down by a man who ran for his life.
“Miserable boy, don’t get in the way!” The man even had the audacity to look back and curse in anger.
A woman, perhaps because she was a mother, went to the boy and helped him: “Are you okay?” She lifted him up: “Where are your parents? Did your father disappear? Okay, follow your aunt, maybe meet your dad at the east exit.”
“Waah, I… I… will listen…” While crying the boy full of tears and snot held the woman’s hand tightly.
But soon the little boy’s face turned white as a sheet: “Ahhhhhhhhhh!” He screamed aloud at the top of his lungs.
Startled, the woman looked back and fear was tinged across her face. She took the boy in her arms and prepared to flee, but the giant rat was too fast and with claws that looked razor-sharp, it was heading towards them.
The woman protected the child with her body as she closed her eyes. However, the expected pain did not come.
“That…” Even with fear, she forced herself to open her eyes and look back, it was when she realized that something that looked like it was made of white cotton blocked the giant rat’s attack. A moment later, something made of the same substance in the shape of a fist slammed into the giant rat’s entire body.
*BOOOOM!*
“Ahhh!”
The woman and boy jumped up a screamed as they were forced to close their eyes like a curtain of dust rose.
Being close, the blood of the giant rat drips on both of them, but that didn’t matter in relation to the main one… The woman sighed in relief, she thought it was her end, while the child in her arms cried loudly, the fear he felt was very big, he had never been in such a situation, always inside the city, something like that was too scary!
Amidst the chaos, with so much oblique behavior, it was impressive that a woman would protect a random child who was apparently not related to her.
Luan was a little impressed, precisely because of that, he prioritized helping them.
“Young master, thank you.” The woman soon realized who her savior was and thanked him.
“Thanks…!” The child stopped crying a little and was grateful to hear what the woman said. He was also able to see Luan in a flying cloud, although his innocent eyes, he was a little mischievous and curious, the yearning to find his father was greater.
“Girl, my father…”
Smiling a little, albeit a little forced, she said, “I know, let’s go.”
The woman ran with the boy in her arms.
After eliminating the giant rats that followed the route the woman and boy were on, Luan created several powerful attacks with the cloud and launched it toward the giant rats that invaded the city.
The city itself should have guards protecting the people, however, most of them were in the citadel, where the city lord with his family lived.
Luan despised this act, even if it’s natural to think about their security, using all the city’s defense power to defend yourself was pure cowardice.
That said, the guards were also rotten, as even in the chaos they chose to protect those who could pay rather than the people who were practicing their families.
“Disgusting.” Luan shifted his gaze to another location, leaving the part of the citadel without his protection.
*thud!*
One of the giant rats was decapitated in an instant. its heavy body jerked once before hitting the ground dead.
The couple who was just saved tried to find their savior to thank, when they spotted a handsome man with white hair and red eyes controlling clouds, it was clear to them that he was the one who saved them.
“Thanks!” The two said in unison, before bowing towards him three times.
It wasn’t the first time he’d saved someone, nor was it the first time he’d received thanks, but he still responded with a nod. Although it is simple, the young couple was pleased.
It still wasn’t safe, after doing that, the young couple took off running towards the east.
