Time returned to a few minutes ago.
At this moment, Gu Cheng was being pulled by Yuma. They were running forward like before.
However, this time, the two of them were not rushing. They were running for their lives.
"Hurry up! Gu Cheng! "
This time, it was Yuma's turn to urge them with an anxious tone.
"Damn it!"
Gu Cheng looked like he was in a terrible fix. Even though his stamina was almost depleted, he could only run for his life.
Upon closer inspection, both Gu Cheng and Yuma's bodies had some burn marks on them.
The reason was simple.
That was because as the two of them were running, lumps of flames were chasing after them from behind.
"Bang!"
The lumps of flames were like cannonballs. They bombarded the area beside Gu Cheng and Yuma and exploded. Hot winds and waves of flames blew on Gu Cheng and Yuma's bodies, forcing Gu Cheng and Yuma to change directions.
However, even though Gu Cheng and Yuma had changed directions, the cannonball-like lumps of flames continued to attack them.
"Peng! Peng! Peng! Peng!"
Explosions rang out incessantly.
The lumps of flames chased after Gu Cheng and Yuma again and again. They bombarded the two of them, causing explosive winds to sweep over them again and again. It was extremely destructive.
Gu Cheng and Yuma felt like they were running for their lives in a battlefield full of artillery fire. They could only run non-stop and rely on this method to disrupt the enemy's aim, causing the lumps of flames released by the enemy to hit nothing but air time and time again.
One could imagine that once the two of them stopped running, the lumps of flames would immediately blast them into pieces and kill them on the spot.
Unfortunately, the two of them had limited stamina.
"Ha … Ha … Ha …"
Not long after, panting sounds could be heard coming from Gucheng and Yuma, making it easy for others to sense their fatigue.
On the other hand, perhaps because he was an artificial lifeform, the attacker's stamina was still rather ample.
"Let's see how long you can run!"
Loki jumped from one building to another, chasing after Gu Cheng and Yuma who were running on the street next to the building. At the same time, he continuously released flames and blasted them downwards.
It was simply a moving flamethrower. For Gu Cheng, who was only equivalent to a high school athlete, once he was grazed by it, it would be over.
On the other hand, Yuma could still organize a counterattack.
"Ha!"
As Yuma ran forward with Gu Cheng, he released Mana from time to time, causing the space in front of his palm to fluctuate. The vibrations turned into shock waves that attacked Loki.
With Youma's current mana and strength, this was the only counterattack she could do. She used the vibrations in the space in front of her palm to release a shockwave.
Of course, Rocky wouldn't even dodge an attack of this level. He only needed to wave his hand and unleash a curtain of fire, and the shockwave would cancel each other out and disappear in front of him.
However, the enemy's counterattack still made Rocky feel impatient.
"It's about time for you to give up, right?"
Rocky shouted irritably. Once again, he released flames and blasted them towards the street below.
"I won't give up!"
Yuma also shook the space again and released a shockwave. The shockwave dispersed the incoming flames and counteracted Rocky's attack.
However, Yuma's movements became heavier and heavier, and her breathing became more and more serious.
That was a sign that her Mana was about to be exhausted.
Seeing Yuma like this, Gu Cheng was extremely anxious.
At that moment, Gu Cheng could only shout at Rocky.
"Who are you? Why are you attacking us?! "
Gu Cheng questioned loudly.
However, what responded to Gu Cheng was a merciless bombardment.
"You don't need to know that much." Rocky released flames and chased after Yuma while saying coldly, "You only need to know that your existence is too dangerous to the people of this world. That's enough."
As he said that, Rocky blew up the street lamp beside Gu Cheng, causing it to directly turn into fragments in the flames.
The reason why Gu Cheng was able to avoid this attack was entirely because of his years of playing basketball.
Even so, Gu Cheng was still blown away by the explosion and rolled several times on the ground.
"Gu Cheng!"
Yuma wanted to come over, but her legs suddenly weakened, and she knelt on the ground.
Obviously, Yuma's Mana was exhausted.
"Yuma …"
Gu Cheng propped himself up, staggered, and crawled to Yuma's side.
However, both of their stamina was exhausted just like that, and they could no longer move.
"Finally stopped?"
Only then did Loki leap down from the building beside him. He landed heavily on the ground and stood in front of Gucheng and Yuma.
Flames burned on Rocky's body, illuminating the street under the setting sun.
"Then, it's time to deal with you." Rocky stretched his hand to Gu Cheng and said, "Sensei is still waiting for me. If I let him wait too long, the First God's Child may take advantage of me."
Upon hearing that, Gu Cheng reacted.
"The First God's Child?" Gu Cheng stared at Rocky and shouted, "What are you going to do to Yao!?"
This sentence was met with a sneer from Loki.
"Do you still have the mood to worry about others at this time?" Loki said with murderous intent: "You should worry about yourself, God's Child Cain."
With that, Rocky released the flames in his hand.
"Gu Cheng …!"
Yuma immediately wanted to push Gu Cheng away.
"Yuma!"
However, at that time, Gu Cheng was one step ahead of Yuma and pushed her away.
Just like that, the flames enveloped the ancient city and engulfed it.
"Gu Cheng!!!"
Yuma screamed in shock and despair.
At that moment …
"Shing!"
With a slashing sound, a dark sword light suddenly appeared and slashed at the flames that enveloped Gu Cheng.
"Pfft!"
The pitch-black flash of the sword slashed apart the oncoming flames and scattered them into countless sparks that scattered in all directions.
"What …!?"
Rocky's pupils shrank.
Just like that, a voice filled with malice, yet surprisingly pleasant and pleasing to the ear rang in his ears.
"Don't take out this level of flames to embarrass yourself. If you want to burn people to death, at least take out a flame of this scale."
When such a voice rang out, a surging burst of flames suddenly rose like a flaming tornado, sweeping in Loki's direction.
Compared to Loki's flames, the difference was like the difference between heaven and earth.
"Bam …!"
Rocky didn't have time to be shocked. His body was one step ahead of his brain, and he rushed to the side, avoiding the attack of the burst flames.
The explosion swept across like a storm, scorching the earth and vaporizing the atmosphere. It was like a fire dragon rushing across the street, igniting the entire street.
Under such circumstances …
"I asked you to come here to save people, not to burn to your heart's content, Arsonist."
"Do you have the right to say that? You didn't even say a word before you drew your sword. If I didn't know better, I would think that you didn't come to save people, but to kill them, Hedgehog Girl. "
Two quarreling voices appeared in the field.
Gu Cheng, who was already mentally prepared, raised his head, his face full of surprise.
