"Whoosh."
Lu Sheng walked out of the flames. He left charred footprints behind as he walked toward the boy in the ruins.
"Hating everything because of pain is the sign of a weakling."
"Whoosh!"
A red shadow suddenly passed through several houses and appeared in front of the boy.
Lu Sheng's arm, which was still emitting heat, grabbed the boy who was limp on the ground.
"Ah!"
The boy opened his mouth and screamed. Countless pitch-black flying insects flowed out of his eyes. A large number of flying insects charged toward Lu Sheng.
"Fool!" Lu Sheng allowed the flying insects to crash into him. These insects were not afraid of fire, but they could not even bite through Lu Sheng's skin. They were repelled by a huge recoil and burned into ashes in midair.
He lifted the boy with one hand.
"Is there only hatred and despair left in your heart?" Lu Sheng looked at the two bloody holes in the boy's eyeball-less eye sockets.
The boy struggled with all his might.
The sound of chains clanking could be heard in the fog around them. It seemed like the Executioners that Lu Sheng had encountered before were rushing toward them in large numbers.
…
Luo Di pulled Mera away. He dodged a black machete that came slashing down at his head.
"Over here!" He rolled and dodged two monster branches that wrapped around him. He got up and shouted at Fran.
Fran was also fighting an Executioner nearby. She was very agile and fast. She seemed to be dodging every Executioner's attack with ease.
However, only she knew that if she was hit, everything would be over in an instant.
When she heard Luo Di's shout, she pounced and dodged an iron hammer that came at her from the side. She met up with Luo Di and Mera.
The three of them were currently standing with their backs to each other in front of the metal gate outside the building. They were just about to leave the school when they were attacked by a large number of monsters. Fortunately, they had special bait that they brought along with them. They created sound and light, which attracted a large number of monsters away. Only a few of the slower ones stayed behind.
When they came out, they would have to face the remaining five monsters before them.
Four tentacle trees with human heads dangling from their hooks, and a fat man with his stomach exposed to the air.
The fat man held a machete and iron hammer in his hands, which were stained with blood. It was unknown how many people he had killed.
"Where is Ah Sang?"
"I don't know!" Roddy hurriedly replied.
"Let's get out of here first. Luo Sang is definitely safer than us!" said Mera in a deep voice.
The three of them barely managed to avoid the monster's attack and quickly rushed out of the school gate.
Bang!!
Suddenly, a black shadow shot out from a room on the third floor of the school. After crashing through a few houses, it fell into a pile of black ruins.
"That is …?" The few of them were slightly stunned. Immediately after, they saw the movements of the monsters in front of them stop in unison. Then, they turned around and roared as they charged in the direction of the black ruins.
Before they could recover from their shock, the flames in the school building had already spread, illuminating the entire building in red.
The scorching heat forced the few of them to retreat even further.
"What should we do? Now. "Fran looked at Rody, then at Mera.
"I'm going to find Ah Sang," Roddy said calmly. He was already indifferent to his own life and death. However, he could not allow anything to happen to Luo Sang. He was still young, and there was still hope. He still had a lot of time ahead of him.
"The raft is gone. It was destroyed halfway. We can't leave even if we want to," said Mera helplessly. "I'll fetch Esseinro first, then go and see what's going on over there." She looked in the direction of the black ruins.
…..
The church.
Urus paced around the floor in his black military boots. His footsteps were crisp.
The remaining eleven personal guards were scattered around the corners of the church. They were on guard against their surroundings.
"Why are you following me?! Don't you know? Don't you know that there's no way out once you enter this place?! " Urus suddenly stopped in his tracks. He roared fiercely at a golden-haired girl not far away like a lion.
The girl had waist-length hair, and her face was as exquisite as a doll's. She wore a purplish-red tunic dress, paired with fine white stockings and red leather boots. She gave off a gentle aura that was pure yet adorable.
"I won't live if you die." The girl looked at Urus calmly with her beautiful blue eyes.
"You're crazy! The family needs you! It's meaningless to die here! I'm fated to die here, but you're different. You carry the future of the Rudis Family with you! "Urus roared furiously. He sat on the ground and grabbed his hair with both hands.
"I must think of a way to send you out. I must! There must be a way … "His eyes were lifeless as he mumbled to himself.
"Father." The girl walked behind him. She wrapped her fair and slender arms around this lion-like strong man.
"I don't want you to die."
"Yuya …" Urus grabbed his daughter's hand. "I promised your mother that I'll let you live happily and peacefully."
"It's alright. You've worked very hard. "Yuya looked at Urus gently.
"No! There must be hope! " Urus suddenly roared again. He pushed Yuya away and stood up anxiously. He paced back and forth.
"General! There's a big fire! "a soldier on duty suddenly reported loudly. As his personal guards, the rest of the soldiers had already broken down. They fled in all directions and were killed by the monsters. However, they were different. No matter what Urus did, they would follow him unswervingly until their last drop of blood.
This was their will. It was also the meaning of their existence.
Urus had only dared to lead so many men to destroy the town because he had the support of this group of personal guards.
However, there was no doubt that he had failed.
"A big fire?"
Urus quickly ran to the window. He looked at the red light that illuminated half the sky in the distance.
"I'm afraid that the White Eagle and his men are the only ones who can cause a big fire in the town …" Urus quickly organized his thoughts. The town's abnormality evoked the last bit of hope in his heart.
"Let's go and take a look! There might be a turn for the better, "Yuya suddenly interrupted.
She held Urus's hand gently.
"Enough people have died tonight." She recalled the soldiers that her father had brought along to harm. She immediately felt sad.
"Alright." Urus had the same intention. He immediately waved his hand when he heard that.
"Everyone, pack your equipment and approach the fire!"
…
"Swoosh!"
Two Executioners appeared beside Lu Sheng in a flash. They swung their chains at the same time from both sides. Before they could hit the chains, they were sliced into pieces by a flash of silver light in the air.
Lu Sheng had just sheathed his saber when dozens of monster branches flew out from the black fog. They lashed at his body like whips.
Black arms drilled out of the ground and grabbed his legs one by one.
The little boy screamed. Invisible sound waves spread rapidly in all directions. More and more monsters gathered around him.
In the beginning, Lu Sheng was still able to deal with the monsters. However, as the number of monsters increased, he was finally careless. An Executioner that was clearly much stronger than the average one pounced on him from behind and pinned him to the ground.
Soon after, a large group of monsters pounced on him like a human pyramid.
In the blink of an eye, the spot where Lu Sheng was was turned into a huge pile of black, ferocious, and strange hills.
The little boy approached the hill step by step. He wanted to kill this powerful man who had toyed with him and trampled on him with his own hands.
"Ah Sang!" Suddenly, a loud shout from afar attracted his attention.
Luo Di, Mera, and the others rushed over. They stood in the distance and saw the final scene of Lu Sheng being drowned by the large group of monsters.
"No! Ah Sang! "Luo Di's eyes immediately turned red. He started trembling uncontrollably.
Mera, on the other hand, stared at the little boy and the large group of monsters gathered around him with a grim expression.
Fran saw that the situation was bad. She began to retreat quietly. She planned to run the moment something went wrong. Even the powerful Luo Sang was crushed to death by the monsters. Let alone ordinary people like them.
Just as the little boy was about to give the order to kill them … A group of people walked over slowly from the other direction.
"That boy! He must be the key! All the monsters are gathered around him. As long as we kill him, we'll definitely be able to resolve this perilous situation! "Urus saw the little boy standing among the monsters the moment he arrived. He was instantly overjoyed.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
He did not even think. He immediately fired several shots at the boy's head.
The bullets instantly left bullet holes in the little boy's forehead. However, the bullet holes immediately repaired themselves. They melted like a candle and flowed to repair the wounds.
The moment Urus opened fire, the personal guards behind him immediately followed suit and opened fire. They fired at the group of monsters.
Some of the weaker monsters had their tentacles broken and turned into black liquid on the spot. However, more monsters pounced forward and attempted to get closer to the boy.
The orange-red muzzles of the guns flickered and extinguished in the black fog. The metallic bullets merely caused some light ripples in the sea of black monsters before they immediately disappeared.
"Ah!"
The first soldier was immediately attacked. They were his personal guards, and at the same time, the most elite warriors under Urus' command. After getting used to the appearance of the monsters, none of them were afraid. Even before they died, they pulled the explosives on their bodies.
"Boom!"
Fireballs exploded one after another.
Urus clenched his teeth and shouted. He roared as he watched his personal guards stand in front of him and be torn apart by the monsters to protect themselves. His entire body was trembling. These were the accumulation of his efforts over the years.
Yuya stood behind him. Her pretty face was pale, but she did not retreat.
"Crack."
Another bolt of lightning flashed past. A large number of monsters started merging rapidly. As pieces of writhing flesh piled up, they gradually formed a two-story tall humanoid monster with goat horns.
"Roar!"
It lowered its head abruptly and roared at Urus and the others.
"My god …" Urus was shaken by the roar as well. His expression was slightly dazed. He had never thought that he would be facing a colossal existence of such a level.
Mera was also shocked. An ice-cold aura that was completely different from before instantly spread to an area of several hundred meters like a white ring.
This aura immediately froze everyone's legs. They could not move their bodies at all.
