A massive explosion sounded. Roaring flas spurted out of the mouth of the cannon, bringing with it a frightening force as the cannonball shot towards Igris and his teammates.
"What the f’’k, that’s the Fire God Cannon!" "Dodge quickly!" Lyon’s face turned green. He increased his speed explosively and ran away.
The other people’s expressions changed too. There seed to be wheels on their legs as they dashed away. It was as though they had seen so terrifying monster.
Igris was cursing in his heart. This bastard was really vicious. He even used a heavy weapon like the fire cannon. He had heard of the Fire God Cannon before. This thing was expensive to make, and its power was frightening. Ordinary people couldn’t afford to use it. The person in the air actually brought one along with him. This was out of everyone’s expectation.
It was too late to say anything now. They needed to escape.
’Boom!’
The Energy cannonball congregated by the Fire God Cannon smashed into the ground. Flas gushed into the air, and visible impact waves swept through the forest, bringing everything along with it. Lyon, Igris, and the other team mbers weren’t able to run far at all. The powerful blast moved as fast as lightning. It threw them into the air.
Igris could hardly look after himself. At this mont, he didn’t have the ti to care about other people.
"[Earth Elent Shield]!"
He quickly blocked his front. At the sa ti, Energy exploded out of his body and congregated into a yellowish-brown shield. At this life or death mont, his heartbeat increased and his mind was all tensed up. His spiritual power moved automatically and rged into his Earth Elent Shield.
In that instant, the world suddenly beca silent. He had lost his hearing temporarily because of the enormous explosion! His battle shield shattered into pieces. The Earth Elent Shield persevered for three breaths before it crumbled gradually. It shattered. Hot waves gushed towards him. The impact waves landed on Igris’s body, and he felt a collision on his head. His vision turned black. In an instant, he couldn’t see anything.
•••
A long ti seed to have passed. Yet, it felt like an instant too. Igris shook his head and crawled up from the ground. At the start, his mind was still in a daze. He didn’t know what had happened. But, the next second, his dual-colored pupils constricted. He had regained his mory.
"I’m still alive!" He rejoiced for surviving the disaster.
Then, he hurriedly jumped up. However, the action made him gasp in pain. His entire body was aching. This is so painful. Damn it, I wonder how my other teammates are?
Igris raised his eyes and looked around him. The ground was all burned black, and there was a deep hole in the middle. The trees around it had collapsed. Flas were raging on the branches of the trees.
"Huh? There’s still soone alive!" The bird flew down slowly. A young man stood on the back of the bird and looked down on Igris.
The attire he was wearing was the style of the Ghadora Plains. The two worlds had interacted for 30 years, but they still maintained their unique culture and customs. For instance, people on Earth would not especially wear the clothes of the Ghadora Plains. Similarly, the people on the Ghadora Plains would not wear clothes from Earth either.
He gave a look of contempt and said calmly, "You’re a Level 8 Player. It looks like you’re really lucky and managed to keep your life. Your teammates’ abilities didn’t seem bad. However, they’re probably dead now. Tell , what did you get from the Single-Horn Badger? Who has that thing? If you tell , maybe I can consider sparing your life."
"You killed them?" Igris remained expressionless, but there was a cold glare in his eyes. Although he had known Lyon and the other team mbers for a short period only, they had taken great care of him. He had to repay them! Also, this person almost killed him! Anyone that wanted to kill him must die!
"Why? Do you want to take revenge for them?" The young man scoffed. He didn’t hide his disdain. "I don’t mind telling you that I’m a Level 25 Player. If you reply to honestly, you can live. If not, I will let you die a terrible death..."
"Uncle, may I know how old you are?" Igris interrupted him.
The young man was stunned by this strange question. Also... Uncle! Who are you calling uncle? The young man’s veins popped out of his head. He asked with a furious expression, "What do you an?"
"Oh, nothing. I heard that old people are normally naggy. I want to see if you’re an old uncle under that young man’s face," Igris said.
"Old, old man?! Since you want to die, I’ll fulfill your wish!" The young man’s expression turned cold. He held his hand into a claw and exuded Energy on his hand. He then viciously attacked Igris’s neck.
Igris looked at him as he flew down. His face was calm. 0 ters! 0 ters! 0 ters... At that mont, Igris moved his thoughts. The remaining small amount of spiritual power gushed out of his mind.
’Flying dagger!’
A cold glint flew out of his battle uniform. It turned into a flash of lightning and shot towards the young man.
"Spiritual power!" The young man’s expression changed trendously. The cold glint’s speed was so fast that he couldn’t capture it with his eyes. It seed to be shuttling between spaces. In a blink of an eye, it appeared in front of him. It was too late to dodge.
The young man made a hasty decision and changed the direction of his hand. The Energy in his body surged out as he clawed towards the cold glint.
"Disperse!" Igris lifted the edge of his lips as he said this single word. The cold glint exploded below the man’s claw. It turned into six cold rays and attacked the young man from all directions. Igris rembered the ’Shooting Star Spiral’ theory, so when he attacked the first ti, he had used the six flying daggers together as one. Now, he split them up to catch his opponent off his guard!
"No!" Fear finally appeared on the young man’s face. His pupils constricted into needles, the six rays of cold lights reflecting in them. He yelled in despair.
’Slash!’
The six cold lights instantly pierced into the young man’s head. So pierced into his eyes, so went through his forehead, so stabbed into his temples... Blood spurted everywhere! The young man died in a grueso manner. Blood oozed out of his eyes, nose, and mouth. Panic, despair, unwillingness, and even regret... all kinds of emotions solidified on the face that was slowly losing its vitality.
Igris looked at the body as it fell backward. It crashed forcefully onto the ground. He said calmly, "I’m sorry. I don’t want to die."
Once the young man died, the bird that he was sitting on rose into the air and... flew away. It flew away! It just flew away and abandoned its owner. This was a heartless spiritual pet.
Igris had a mont of silence for the young man. This man was a failure! Even its spiritual pet abandoned it. How sorrowful!
Everything had ended. Igris heaved a sigh of relief. That bird had truly made them suffer. If he could, he wanted to keep it here, but he didn’t have the ability to do anything for now.
After heaving a sigh of relief, his tensed mind gradually relaxed. The next instant, waves of pain assaulted his mind. It was as though a bat was stirring his brain viciously. A while ago, to resist the attack of the Fire God Cannon, he had released his spiritual power to form a defensive wall. The consumption was enormous. After that, he had called forth all his energy to defeat the Level 25 young man. He fought with all his might. That was why his spiritual power was totally drained now. The aftereffect almost caused Igris to faint from the pain.
It took a long ti for the pain to subside. It wasn’t that painful anymore, but he still felt like dying. Igris kept up his spirits and started looking for his teammates. He searched for a long ti before he finally found everyone.
They were all grievously injured and unconscious. No matter how Igris called them, they wouldn’t wake up. Their mana wasn’t as strong as Igris’s, so they were unable to handle the shock from the explosion. Felix was in the worst state. One of his legs broke from the explosion. Blood was everywhere, and the pain caused his body to twitch uncontrollably.
Igris could only help him stop his blood. He used whatever dication he could use on him. He treated the others the sa way. There were many wounds on their bodies. Many areas were burnt black, so he used internal and external dications on them. He hoped that they would pull through.
