Only Heroic Soul soldiers would be able to survive after being swept into the absolute ice hail storm. In reality, everyone was sighing in grief and sorrow in their hearts. However, at this moment, they had no choice but to advise Wang Zhong. There was simply no way to find him, and they could only sacrifice Emily's life for nothing. At this moment, they could only pray for Wang Zhong, and pray for the heavens to open their eyes.
"If what you said is wrong, I'll definitely …" Emily clenched her teeth. In the end, she did not say out the 'consequences'. In fact, she knew that it would be useless for her to search for him, as she basically did not know where to start. However, she was unable to get over this hurdle in her heart. On the contrary, Grai's words had given her hope once again, causing her to sincerely pray.
With a smile, Grai's expression did not appear to be half-hearted at all. "Believe me, I'm definitely not just handsome."
As his words rang out, the sorrowful and sorrowful atmosphere instantly froze.
Grai … Grai actually knew how to joke around?!
Hymin's mouth was agape, while the dejected atmosphere in the surroundings instantly changed. The intense pain from her injuries seemed to have turned into relief.
Pa Pa!
"Alright!" Grai clapped his hands, before walking over and carrying the semi-conscious Colby on his back. "For the time being, I'll be the leader. Everyone, hurry up. We'll head to Grozny City to wait for Senior Wang Zhong and the others!"
At the entrance of the Mist Valley, the terrifying absolute ice hail storm had already rushed out, sweeping across the heavens and earth, destroying everything in its path.
Feltico did not enter the range of the hail storm. Being a member of the Vasilyevich Family's Northern River Legion, he had already sensed the arrival of the hail storm through the weather yesterday. Upon seeing the entire Tianjing squadron enter the Mist Valley, a frown had appeared on his face. However, due to the rules, he could only appear when the squadron had given up on the match and sent out a distress signal, or when the entire squadron had sunk into a life and death situation. He could not warn the Tianjing squadron.
However, he understood the might of the absolute ice hail storm all too well. Even Heroic Soul soldiers were unable to withstand such a terrifying natural storm. The Tianjing squadron, who were already facing the hail storm in the valley, felt slightly worried, despite the fact that they had yet to send out a distress signal.
It was only when he saw the violent hailstorm sweeping away into the distance that Feltico came out of his hiding place, a little uncertain as to what to do.
The Tianjing squadron did not send out any rescue signals. According to the rules, he could only act as a hidden sentry, and was not allowed to interfere in the fight. In fact, he was not allowed to get within a 10 kilometre radius of the Tianjing squadron. However, what if the Tianjing squadron was in urgent need of rescue? It was very likely that the hailstorm would completely wipe them out. They might not even have the time to press the rescue signal.
As long as one was alive, luck was very important. Feltico could only report truthfully.
…
In the endless darkness, Scarlet's consciousness was in a blurry state. For a long period of time, she felt like she was floating, the world spinning around her, causing her to subconsciously feel extreme fear. However, that pair of strong arms continued to surround her, as well as the warmth and steadiness radiating from that broad chest. As long as that chest and those hands were present, she felt that all her fear was leaving her.
After an unknown amount of time, the dizzying feeling disappeared. It was as if he had been smashed heavily on the ground, but strangely, his body did not feel any pain.
However, her head remained dizzy and heavy. Regardless of how much she wanted to wake up, she was unable to clear her thoughts. Her eyelids were incomparably heavy, and every single bone in her body ached. At times, her head felt as though it was about to explode. Her body was also in a state of extreme torment. At times, she felt as though she was scalding hot, and at other times, she felt as though she had fallen into an ice cave. This feeling was simply unbearable.
As a new human, she had never fallen sick before. She had only heard many people talk about the sufferings of 'mortals'. Occasionally, a thought would flash through her mind. Did I catch a cold? No, no, no. This is definitely much more serious than a cold.
What made her even more afraid was that the pair of hands that had been hugging her all this while seemed to be showing signs of pulling away.
Cold, pain, and fear assaulted her. Despite her consciousness being in a daze, she still instinctively hugged that chest tightly, unwilling to let go of those hands.
A wave of strange energy entered her body from the outside. It seemed to be Soul Power. Like a gentle massage, it soothed the injuries within her body. At the same time, a peculiar warmth started to spread. It was as though there was a flickering flame within the darkness, continuously dispelling the bitter cold for her.
Her hazy senses gradually felt at peace, and the fear in her heart gradually calmed down. Finally, Scarlet fell into a deep sleep.
When she finally awoke, she discovered that she was hugging a body that was brimming with a masculine aura. Scarlet gawked slightly, before she heard faint snoring sounds.
Was it Wang Zhong?
His right hand was currently resting on Scarlet's forehead, while Soul Power continued to flow into her body.
Using Soul Power to heal injuries was a basic first-aid technique that every soldier should learn. Soul Power was a type of energy that possessed protective properties. However, only people with a relatively high standard would be able to find the wavelength of the person being saved, and guide it, allowing the injured person's Soul Power to gradually recover.
At the same time, she also noticed Wang Zhong's left hand. His left hand was currently flat, with a clump of palm-sized flames surging within his palm.
This was … a fire attribute special ability?
Wang Zhong appeared to be extremely exhausted. Using both his Soul Power and special ability at the same time would definitely last for quite a long time. Scarlet could feel that she had been unconscious for a very long time. How much control did one need to have to continuously send out Soul Power and maintain the warmth of his special ability for such a long time? How much mental strength did one need to expend? It was no wonder that even with the terrifying amount of energy Wang Zhong had displayed during this period of time, he could not help but fall into a half-asleep state. However, even though he had fallen asleep, his Soul Power and special ability had unexpectedly not stopped.
Scarlet did not dare to move, perhaps because she was afraid of disturbing Wang Zhong's deep sleep.
She could feel her heart thumping loudly.
Ever since she was young, other than her grandfather and father, she had never been so close to a male before. She felt the same warmth and reliability as her grandfather and father's embrace, yet there was an extremely large difference.
There was a kind of furtive joy, a joy that made her heart beat like a deer.
Scarlet was unable to describe what kind of feeling this was, only feeling slightly reluctant to part with him. Perhaps, continuing to hug him like this wasn't too bad. In this cold Absolute Ice Restricted Area, she felt as though she was in heaven at this moment.
All of a sudden, the faint snoring stopped, causing Scarlet to hurriedly shut her eyes.
Wang Zhong gave a gentle cough, before moving his body slightly. Appearing as though he was afraid of waking her up, his movements were rather light, not daring to move the arm resting on her head in the slightest.
Scarlet's face suddenly turned red. Although she really couldn't bear to part with this warmth, she felt that Wang Zhong's hand was definitely already numb.
Blinking her eyes, she pretended to have just woken up.
"You're awake?" Wang Zhong exhaled a sigh of relief, before speaking in a concerned tone. "How do you feel?"
A warm feeling filled Scarlet's heart. "I'm much better. Thank you."
