In a street in the central city, the earth was cracking and rising. This was a sign that infernal worms were walking below. Frightened people were running to avoid the signs of collapse that were constantly approaching from behind.
But there is already a wall at the end of the alley. Because the underground in Zhongcheng is made of masonry structures, the worms' speed is hindered to a certain extent. Therefore, the crowd runs slightly faster than the worms. But facing an insurmountable wall, waiting for them There seems to be only death.
"Boom!" Bricks and stones flew into the air, and a huge worm's body burst out of the ground, leaping high, ready to devour the residents who had fled for a long time when they fell.
"Drink!" Loud shouts came from the tops of the buildings around the alley, and a sawtooth heavy sword flashing with purple lightning was thrown down from above and collided with the leaping worm.
The not-so-sharp sword blade collided with the hard and thick carapace of the worm, crushing it directly like opening a walnut, and directly smashed the huge worm that jumped high into the ground.
The figure of the worm jumped into the air and was hit by the huge sword with huge weight. It fell uncontrollably, denting the ground and causing a large crack in the wall next to it.
"Run quickly...drink!" A strong female voice said. Before the residents could understand what was happening, a red-haired girl jumped from the top of the nearby building and punched the wall that was blocking everyone's escape. Collapse.
"Oh...thank you!"
"Stop talking nonsense and run."
Sporadic thanks, but more of a desperate run away.
"Huh..." Wendy looked back at the worm. Without her to provide power, the giant sword enchanted by gravity magic had lost excess weight and was now inserted into the worm's body, but it could no longer hinder the worm's progress.
Compared to the huge body of the Purgatory Worm, Wendy's giant sword is still too small. At best, it is equivalent to a grizzly bear being shot in the shoulder with an arrow. It has an impact, but it is harmless.
The worm rolled over after being hit, and once again collapsed a piece of the surrounding wall because of its huge body. Then it regained its strength and continued to aim its serrated mouthparts at the fleeing crowd. The food... ran away, and they chased it.
It started to squirm, and its huge body crawled quickly on the bricks and stones. It was actually faster than an ordinary carriage. With its huge body, it was like a large truck that was out of control. Anyone who saw it would be frightened. .
"Gu..." After swallowing quietly, Wendy took a stance and aimed at the charging worm. Without the giant sword in her hand, could she stop this thing? But she had to try.
Facing the infernal worm that was charging violently, Wendy aimed at the open mouthparts. The infernal worm's eyeballs or visual organs were bulged out from the carapace. She gathered her fighting spirit and punched with all her strength.
"Bang!" The fist collided hard with the worm's carapace. The powerful punch blessed by fighting spirit, and with the help of the gauntlet, made the hard carapace dent in the middle, and weird liquid splashed out from the gap.
But at the same time, the huge size of the Purgatory Worm itself was not something that Wendy could stop. The unparalleled power was transmitted from her arms to her body. After punching Wendy, she was directly knocked up and flew up. There was also a sharp pain in her arm. I am afraid that temporarily It’s hard to exert any more force.
"Damn it..." Wendy, who was knocked away, saw the worms in the air that continued to rush towards the residents without stopping at all. She was unwilling to accept that she was still too weak. Compared to the teacher, she was too weak.
Somewhat helplessly, Wendy adjusted her posture, preparing to reduce the damage caused by landing. Wendy could already foresee the tragic ending of these residents being swallowed and squeezed into pulp, but now she could do nothing.
But just when she started to fall, Wendy noticed something was wrong with some confusion, "Hey, why am I falling so slowly, Feather Falling Technique, who?".
There was obviously something wrong with her falling speed. She was falling slowly and could not cause any harm. This was the effect of the Feather Falling Technique.
Then, Wendy saw that in front of the worm, the masonry suddenly cracked, and a giant hand made of soil and rock rose from the crack, violently strangling the body of the purgatory worm.
The Purgatory Worm struggled hard, and the giant rock hand seemed a little powerless in the face of the worm's huge power. The rocks and soil on it peeled off rapidly, and it was about to lose its support.
But at this time, a bright fireball with a dazzling golden red light flew out from the other end of the street, and at a not too fast speed, it poured into the mouth of the purgatory worm that was strangled and unable to move.
The giant clay hand exerted one last force before disintegrating, suddenly erupting, forcing the purgatory worm's mouthparts together while disintegrating.
"Boom, bang!" Two extremely close explosions made a dull sound in the worm's body. The huge body of the worm was shaken by these two series of explosions and jumped suddenly.
Fireworks erupted from the closed mouthparts. After the explosion, a large number of cracks appeared in the worm's body, and boiling weird body fluids continued to flow out of it. The purgatory worm turned into a corpse that could no longer die.
"Eh?" Wendy scratched her red hair as she landed. She didn't know what happened, but why the purgatory worm was quickly eliminated.
"Are you okay?" A voice came from behind Wendy.
"Huh? Wow, sister Aviya, did you help me?"
"Yes, your hand is injured, let me treat it for you."
Wendy turned around and saw Aviya wearing a mage's short robe walking out. Aviya stepped forward and held Wendy's arm. The healing spell was quickly activated. After a burst of light, Aviya ended her treatment of Wendy. .
"Wow, that's amazing, thank you sister Aviya." Wendy shook her arm and found that she was completely fine after being treated by Aviya.
"Where's the teacher? Why didn't he take you to Stevenson Academy of Magic?" Aviya asked Wendy, who was pulling the giant sword out of the worm corpse, a little strangely. Wendy was Weber Lanqi, also known as Ivy. Teacher Ya, the granddaughter of the professor at Stevenson School of Magic, there is no reason why she needs to fight the devil here.
"Grandpa, he seems to have made some progress suddenly. He seems to have discovered a small piece of meat that can grow indefinitely? So he has been shutting himself in the laboratory. He hasn't come out for a long time. I'm a little worried about him. , other professors are also a little strange.”
"Slices of meat?"
"Yep."
What Wendy said was very vague, but Aviya could understand it. Weber was a very knowledgeable scholar and very capable, but he was very irrational and even crazy when it came to studying resurrection. He had previously let students learn by themselves. , and I was in the laboratory the whole time.
"Little pieces of meat that keep growing on their own, special cells? And the teacher is really going too far. We need to find an opportunity to talk to him." Aviya frowned. Weber Lanqi was showing signs of going crazy. , I have to remind the teacher.
"I just came out for training, and a demonic invasion broke out. As a result, Stevenson Academy of Magic sealed the entire academy with a magic barrier, and I couldn't get in."
"Because the teacher hasn't come out of the laboratory, you can't contact him and can't get in, right?"
"Hmm, I saw this big worm wanted to eat people, so I came to help. Thanks to you, sister Aviya, otherwise this worm would have killed many people."
"Well, take care of yourself, I have to go somewhere else."
"Where are you going? Can I help?"
"No, I'm just not worried."
"Eh?"
Aviya didn't expect to meet Wendy here. In fact, there are not many demons in the center of the city, and the standards of the professionals here are generally high. Most of the demons will be eliminated within a certain period of time. Wendy should not encounter any threats in the future.
However, it was an unexpected gain to learn about the teacher's situation here. The situation of Weber Lanqi made Aviya feel that something was wrong, but she couldn't tell where it was for the time being.
While the two were talking, loud shouts came from the other side of the street.
"Aiweiya, here we come!" Wang Yu shouted loudly, and then Wang Yu, who ran quickly, rushed to the side of Aviya and Wendy.
"Ah! Brother Wang Yu." Wendy was even more surprised when she saw Wang Yu. How could she happen to meet two acquaintances today.
"Come on, come up, I will carry you and run." Wang Yu nodded towards Wendy, then squatted down and gave his back to Aviya.
"Yeah." Aviya quickly climbed onto Wang Yu's back. Compared to Wang Yu, her petite body was not a burden to Wang Yu at all. Running with the girl on her back was the fastest way for the two of them to move forward together. way.
Wendy was a little dazed holding her big sword. She looked at Wang Yu who was carrying Aviya on his back and was about to set off. She didn't know what to say. It seemed that it had nothing to do with her.
Thinking of something, Wang Yu turned around and told Wendy, "Pay attention to yourself. It's best to find a place to hide later. If you find something wrong, don't get close. One is that the general attack on the Gate of Hell will begin soon. I’m afraid something big is going to happen later.”
"Oh." Wendy nodded.
Wang Yu didn't say anything else. The magic circuit in Aviya's hand lit up, and an air current began to surge around Wang Yu's feet. These air currents circled and surged around Wang Yu, slightly lifting Wang Yu up and providing him with assistance. , the blessing of the wind.
Carrying Aviya on his back, Wang Yu followed the direction of the light spot in the mental space in his mind that represented the statue of the Lady of the Night that Charles was carrying, and began to hurry on.
With the blessing of the wind, Wang Yu jumped up from the ground and jumped up to a building much higher than the city wall area. He quickly used the roof as a shortcut and ran towards his destination unimpeded.
After running at high speed for about two minutes, Wang Yu stopped at the edge of an artificial lake area. This was an artificial lake area built by Wangcheng as a water resource reserve and part of the commercial development site.
Staring at the seemingly calm lake area at the moment, Wang Yu had never really noticed this lake before. Now it seemed that the lake itself did seem a bit out of place, and there was indeed something different about it. The light spot representing Shire was Below the lake area, quickly move back and forth in an area.
"Huh?!" Wang Yu suddenly exclaimed, and quickly retreated back with Aviya on his back. From the perspective of Wang Yu's mental space, the light spot representing Charles paused abruptly and then began to rise rapidly, heading towards The direction above the ground is advancing at high speed.
"Boom, boom, boom..." The earth made a low roar and vibration, and the water in the lake area also rippled, constantly producing bubbles and intermittent sudden eruptions.
"Something is coming up, Wang Yu, there is a kind of coercion..." Aviya's words were a little difficult, a sense of fear originating from the body's instinct was emerging, and some kind of invisible but tangible position was emerging from the ground. Spreading outward, this is different from when facing the fragments of the God of Fear. This is the fear that comes from the body's bloodline instinct.
"I didn't feel pressure, but something was coming up." Wang Yu felt nothing. He didn't feel the pressure Aviya mentioned at all, but it came from the intensifying movements underground. He can still know clearly.
The vibrations and roars continued to become more violent, and the lake surface even began to cave in, which meant that huge cracks had appeared below. Then, extremely rapidly, as the rocks exploded, the lake water surged crazily, and the lake surface was suddenly overwhelmed by the huge The giant thing tore it apart, and a giant beast flew into the sky.
Broken and somewhat deformed wings, fine red hard scales with a metallic sheen, bulging solid muscles, extremely sharp claw blades, a thick tail covered with thorns, the iconic spiral horns, and a high head, each Each tooth with terrible destructive power was firmly nailed to a group of black chains.
"Roar" the majestic roar resounded throughout the royal city.
"Red dragon!" Aviya's shocked voice came from behind Wang Yu. Yes, this sudden sudden rush into the sky was a real dragon.
