"Calm down! Everyone calm down!"
"Don't all rush forward, enter in batches! Enter in batches!" Commander Harvey shouted at the chaotic portal.
But no matter how loud Harvey shouted, the situation didn't get better at all.
Whether it was the news from the sentries from the front line or the increasingly obvious shaking on the ground, fear quickly spread among the tens of thousands of refugees in Chiyan Town.
The people who had previously obeyed the command and lined up in an orderly manner were now all terrified and in chaos.
They all knew that the terrifying monsters from the Terrorclaw Forest were running towards their Red Flame Town at extremely fast speeds.
Under the threat of death, everyone wanted to quickly pass through the portal to the safety of Huodian City, so they all tried their best to squeeze towards the central portal.
But this leads to...
"Mom...wuwuwu...mom, where are you?"
"Stop! Let me stand up, you guys, don't step on me! Ah..."
"Dead...dead!"
"Get out of the way!"
The teleportation gate is only that big in total, and tens of thousands of people are crowded into a large area at the same time, which naturally leads to the teleportation efficiency getting worse.
Moreover, countless people died in the stampede and crowding before the monsters from the Abyss attacked.
Far scarier than the scary monster is fear itself.
"Damn it! How come these monsters have always been fine before, but at this time!" Harvey punched the tree next to him hard.
His keen intuition has already made Harvey aware of a few abnormalities behind it, but now, Harvey has no time to think deeply. He must first stop the chaotic situation in Red Flame Town.
"Damir!" Harvey tried to yell to wake up the completely frightened Damir next to him from his sluggish state.
"Damir!!"
It's a pity that the young mage was still distracted, as if he didn't hear it at all.
In fact, you can’t blame Damir. When tens of thousands of panicked, fearful, and crazy faces surround you and rush in front of you, not everyone has the same determination and determination as Harvey. calm.
Of course, the solution to this situation is simple.
Snapped!
Harvey slapped the young mage hard on the face, almost knocking him off his fragile body.
However, the burning pain finally brought Damir back to reality.
"Use your magic to think of a solution!"
"Oh...ok, yes...yes!"
Only then did Damir, who was so alive, react. He racked his brains and quickly searched for the magic that could be used at this moment.
Fortunately, the mage here is Damir, who has a massive magic reserve. If it were any other Vulcan Sect caster, there would be nothing he could do in such a short period of time even if he tried to break his head.
After all, the Fire God is not good at soothing the soul. That is the domain of the Water God and the Rock God.
A series of spell syllables were hurriedly recited from Damir's mouth, and the magic power was combined with the spells to finally form the corresponding magic.
"Psychic screams!"
The rarest second-level magic of the spiritual system, its main function is to shock the opponent in battle, so as to achieve the purpose of causing the opponent to slow down and pause for a short time.
Therefore, it can be said that he is worthy of being the son of Benben in the future and the first genius mage in Huodian City. Damir relied on his erudition to successfully calm the situation temporarily.
I saw an invisible soul sound wave centered on the young mage, forming a spreading ripple that suddenly radiated to the chaotic crowd around the entire portal.
In an instant, all the crowding and stampeding came to an abrupt end, and the panic expressions on the faces of the refugees disappeared, replaced by confusion.
"Soldiers! Assemble!"
"Maintain order!"
There was no time to praise Damir's performance. Harvey took advantage of the temporary moment when the refugees finally stopped being overly aggressive. He quickly organized the guards of Red Flame Town to restore order and rescue those injured in the previous chaos.
Seeing that the situation has finally improved a bit, although there are still one or two local disturbances, it is generally considered stable.
After the refugees experienced it for the first time, no matter how scared they were, they were no longer as crazily crowded as they were at the beginning, because they also knew that everyone would be doomed if this continued.
Under the command of Mayor Harvey and Solin, the teleportation team slowly began to move in an orderly manner.
Everything seems to be developing for the better again.
But!
Just at this time.
Mutation occurs suddenly again!
A deafening roar of a giant dragon resounded in the sky. Even though it was far away, it still seemed to be right next to the ears, intimidating the hearts of everyone in Chiyan Town.
Damir, Xavi, Thorin...
Hundreds of closed beta players...
Tens of thousands of refugees lined up waiting to be teleported to escape...
Everyone subconsciously couldn't help but look towards the source of the dragon's roar, which was the location of the Terrorclaw Forest.
Then...
It was like lighting a match in the cold night, only to be blown out by the howling cold wind the next moment.
When the Fallen Abyss Bone Dragon appeared from the lair and flew into the air, stretching its sky-covering bone wings in the air.
Even if only a vague outline can be seen in the distance, it does not hinder the feeling of despair it brings to everyone in Chiyan Town.
It was like a combination of disaster and destruction, making it impossible for people to feel any resistance at all. They were like ants in front of the other party, with no room for struggle at all.
Even Harvey, who had been calm in the face of danger before, the moment he saw the Abyssal Bone Dragon suspended in the air, the only subconscious thought in his mind was to run away.
Of course, as for the second thought...
Close the portal!
The portal must be closed immediately!
If Harvey originally planned to take a gamble, he could slightly block the monsters pouring out of the forest and buy time for the refugees to teleport and retreat.
But when the skull dragon appeared, the supreme commander of the Knights, even though Harvey's emotions were trying to stop him, his rationality still told him that he had failed.
The portal project has failed.
Because the target of this skull dragon is obviously Red Flame Town, and even more so, combined with the monsters who suddenly rioted as soon as the portal opened.
Harvey guessed the terrible truth immediately.
Could it be that these corrupt monsters are waiting for this moment, and their target is not just Chiyan Town at all, but the portal in Chiyan Town.
They... want to rely on this portal to go to Huodian City!
The eyes of Mayor Harvey and Mayor Thorin met in the air. They both realized this at the same time, and they both saw determination in each other's eyes.
This skull dragon must not be allowed to come to Huodian City!
Even if you give up your own life and the lives of tens of thousands of refugees in Huodian City, you have to... close the portal and close their last hope of escape and retreat.
"Damir!"
"close..."
Harvey clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, making a sound of squeezing out. A complete "closure" had not yet been made.
As a result, the next moment, I couldn't make a sound.
because...
A scene that frightened everyone in Chiyan Town and stunned every closed beta player happened again.
I saw that this bone dragon had just appeared and taken off, floating in the air, like the incarnation of disaster. But when people blinked again, they were shocked to find that this bone dragon seemed to have been inflicted by someone at its tail. Something is firmly grasped.
Immediately afterwards, a classic scene of the Hulk throwing someone appeared in the mind of every closed beta player.
Because I can't say they are completely similar, but they are exactly the same.
The skull dragon had just become majestic for perhaps only a few seconds before it let out another scream of pain.
Then a huge force came from the dragon's tail, directly spinning the skull dragon in a circle in the air, drawing a semi-arc, and finally throwing it back into the forest on the ground.
boom! !
Accompanied by a heavy thunder-like sound of hitting the ground, a large amount of flying dust followed closely behind, covering the depths of the distant forest in an instant.
The movement was so loud that it even covered up the tremors on the ground due to the running of the Abyss Monsters. It may be that all the Abyss Monsters stopped moving at this moment and looked back towards the depths of the forest, where they fell from.
"Why the hell are you still standing here?"
The first person to wake up from the shock was Commander Harvey.
He roared angrily, waking up many sluggish refugees and guarding soldiers.
"Quick! Quick, now!"
"Everyone, get the hell into the portal!" Harvey stopped cursing, or in other words, this was where the curse words came into play.
The bone dragon disappeared, so naturally the portal no longer had to be closed ruthlessly.
Harvey looked at the entire Red Flame Town that was pulled back from the edge of the cliff.
The supreme commander of the Knights took a deep look at the direction of the Forest of Terror Claws, where the terrifying bone dragon had never flown since it was dragged from the air to the ground.
"I do not care who you are..."
Harvey muttered to himself, but quickly changed his words and added.
"Or... something."
"But I, Harvey, have remembered this kindness, and so have the entire Red Flame Town and Huodian City!"
"Thank u..."
"It didn't make us sinners."
Harvey felt scared when he thought about it now, because it was almost, almost, they were going to let Damir close the portal and shut down everyone's hope in order to prevent the bone dragon.
Because if they do this, even if Huodian City is temporarily safe, they who made this sacrifice decision will definitely become the object of resentment by thousands of refugees in Chiyan Town.
only...
What Harvey didn't know was that his near miss was actually not luck at all.
But...
It was destined.
Beads of sweat broke out on Damir's forehead, and his lips trembled. He looked at the backs of Harvey and Mayor Thorin's command, wanting to say something but not daring to say it.
Because even though Harvey didn't say all the words to close the portal just now, Damir still understood it and was ready to release the closing magic.
And the reason why he showed such an unprecedented frightened expression at this moment also came from this.
No one else knew it, but Damir discovered it.
he...
He didn't know why, but it seemed like his closing magic was affecting the portal...
Doesn't work anymore!
