The battle outside the small forest was nearing its end. Although there were only a dozen or so Level 2 red-legged spiders, they were too tough …
The ground was littered with the corpses of a dozen red-legged spiders. Half of them had fatal wounds on their compound eyes, while the other half had severed limbs. The joints of their severed legs still had traces of being scorched.
However, there were still five or six red-legged spiders that were still exuberantly fighting.
In the Prodigy Squadron, there was only one effective point of attack, and that was Emily.
She panted heavily and once again bloomed a lotus that resembled the flames of death. But this time, whether it was the size of the blade that formed the lotus or the flames that could incinerate everything, they couldn't be compared to before. They seemed extremely weak.
Of the three red-legged spiders that had surrounded her, one had been struck at the joints of their legs. One of them had lost a limb and fell to the ground, but there were still two left. One of them flew towards Barran and Hymin on the left, while the other resisted Emily's attacks and rushed towards her.
The Flaming Lotus Dance shattered, the massive impact causing the already exhausted Emily to fiercely flip over, appearing just like a sheep that had been pounced on by a wild wolf.
The four-petaled spider's fangs bit down on her head!
She used all her strength to brandish her dagger and stab at the red-legged spider's compound eye. But at this moment, the cold dagger was no longer able to emit any flames. Her destructive power and hand strength had been greatly reduced, and she was easily sent flying by the spider's fangs.
A loud bang rang out as a large shield smashed into the red-legged spider's head, causing it to tilt to the side and feel dizzy.
Grabbing this opportunity, Emily sent a second dagger flying out, stabbing it into the large compound eye. Fiercely twisting it into mush, she was immediately pressed down by the heavy corpse of the spider. She was so weak that she didn't even have the strength to push the corpse away.
On the other side, Hymin wanted to help, but it was already too late. She only managed to slightly slow down the red-legged spider before it pounced towards Barran like a ferocious tiger.
Having lost his shield, Barran no longer had any weapons that could block that fellow's attacks. What's more, he was already exhausted. The shield he had tossed out earlier had already used up all of his strength, to the point where even standing was a problem. Therefore, dodging seemed to be the only way he could save his life.
That malevolent red-legged spider was right in front of him. Barran could even smell the putrid stench coming from its terrifying mouth.
But hide? Where could he hide?
Hymin and Grai were right behind him. If he dodged, they would definitely be the ones to die! So what if you don't have a shield? He still had his body and armor!
Barran took a deep breath, lowered his center of gravity, and charged towards the red-legged spider.
Boom!
The frightening impact wasn't something that the exhausted Barran could contend against. No matter how much he tried to lower his centre of gravity, no matter how much he tried to exert all of his strength, the moment he came into contact with it, he felt as though his entire body was about to shatter apart.
His body floated up, and it felt like his soul was floating up as well. He had completely lost control of himself. Was this the feeling of death...
A faint smile appeared at the corner of Barran's mouth. He had died in battle. In that instant, the entire world suddenly turned slow and quiet, as scenes and sounds flashed through Barran's mind.
"Xiao Ba, eating instant noodles again? How many times do I have to scold you idiot? How could a growing person eat this kind of junk food? What's more, you're eating ten bags of skewered food at once … Are you treating your stomach like a trash can? Let's go, let's go eat skewers with this president! "
"Ignore them, Barran. Let's continue. Let's do it again. Pay attention to controlling your body. This is a second attack, you have to …"
"Barran, did Ma Dong bully you again? Hmph, if there's a next time, tell me and see how I'll cut him up! "
"Barran … En, let's go to the club together."
"Barran, ah, it's not easy for you to do a part-time job in the city. You can't earn much, so eat more. Your father and I are doing well, so you don't need to send money back home."
If he didn't look it up in the dictionary, he wouldn't even know what a part-time job meant. Furthermore, he had never earned any money before. He remembered talking about his hometown with President Ma Dong and senior Wang Zhong. Only they knew where his hometown was. Therefore, Barran was able to guess that the money must have been sent by President Ma Dong and senior Wang Zhong without him knowing. They had used his name to send the money to his parents.
He knew, but he didn't say anything. He knew that such kindness couldn't be expressed with just a few words.
He was very stupid. Other than having a strong body and great strength, he was useless. He was always the first one to enter the classroom, and he was always the last one to leave the classroom. No one was willing to talk to him. It was as if they would be infected by his stupidity if they spoke to him.
Only the Prodigy Society gave him the treatment of a human.
President Ma Dong had never treated him as an outsider. He cared about what he ate, where he lived, and what he used. He even put his arm around his shoulder to eat skewers and drink beer … Other than his parents, no one else had ever treated him so well!
Senior Wang Zhong patiently taught him the legendary combat techniques, encouraging him time and time again. He trusted him and even gave him a precious spot to enter the group training camp, which was said to be able to recruit experts!
Emily was very carefree, and would often pull him along to chat about family matters. That's right, she had even told him that she liked Senior Wang Zhong. At that time, Barran felt his heart beating extremely fast. There had never been a girl who had told him about such things before.
Even Grai, who didn't like to talk, would often wait outside the classroom after school to go to the society with him. From the astonished gazes of the surrounding students, Barran understood what dignity was for the first time!
His parents had given him life, but the Prodigy Society had given him dignity. It allowed him to understand the difference between survival and life!
He had two families! They were both his family!
I must protect them. Even if I die, I must die first!
Can't hold on? Even if I can't hold on, I must hold on. Even if I die, I must hold on!
Narrowing his eyes, Barran felt as though his soul had been abruptly pulled back into his body. Green veins popped out on his arms and forehead, while his nearly exhausted Soul Sea was abruptly retracted by that unimaginable willpower! It was as if a dried up lake had suddenly cracked open under the scorching sun!
Bang!
An intense pain exploded in his mind, and his soul sea ruptured!
An explosive force suddenly rushed to the top of his head, bursting through his blood vessels and meridians. But in that instant, the exhausted power rushed out like a flash in the pan!
"Barran, this is a second attack. Use your body to suppress the opponent's power and rebound it back!"
"Roar roar roar!"
Barran's eyes were scarlet red. His waist, which had been smashed to the point of nearly breaking, suddenly straightened.
This was the first time!
This was the first time he felt that he had grasped the essence of the move Wang Zhong had taught him!
The terrifying power that came with the explosion of his soul sea suddenly burst forth, wrapping around the red-legged spider's momentum. With a final roar, he crushed it back with the force of a landslide!
