Chapter 342: Chapter 340 Warden Calder (Extra chapter for monthly votes)_1
“Speed up and escape!”
Yeager roared, his originally thin body suddenly swelled up, with muscles piling upon muscles, transforming him into a small giant over two ters tall, with a bronze skin tone and even taller than Warden Calder had been.
The other mbers of the squad were unable to pay attention to anything else, all entering a state of combat readiness.
It was at this mont that a dozen or so strangely shaped figures moved swiftly in the back, catching up to them in no ti.
These creatures all had gray-white chitinous claws…
Though they were small in size, their speed was incredibly fast.
And for so reason, they were filled with a certain hatred for the living, swinging their sharp claws and attacking the crowd as soon as they arrived.
A 25-year-old soldier had just fended off one attack and hadn’t retracted his weapon when another gray-white figure suddenly pounced on him.
Whoosh.
The chitinous claw swept past.
His body was directly sliced in two, blood splattering everywhere, and his innards instantly spilled out…
Stimulated by the pungent sll of blood.
Many of the surrounding monsters suddenly abandoned their current targets, pouncing on the bisected 25-year-old, ferociously drawing his blood and flesh.
Taking advantage of this mont, Yeager swung his sword with force, killing several of the gray-white demons.
“Hold on! Reinforcents will arrive soon!”
As he bellowed, he prepared to pull back and retreat.
However, a terrifying ntal Shock suddenly surged from behind…
Swept up by this ntal tide, countless people on-site turned blank, so even fainting on the spot.
“Damn it!”
Yeager despaired internally, looking up in the direction from which the ntal tide had co, and saw, high in the sky at an unknown distance away.
A giant creature over several dozen ters tall with sinister, blood-colored wings flapping, continuously emitting roars that vibrated the heavens and the earth.
From afar, its upper body resembled so kind of fallen angel polluted in hell, while its lower half was like mangrove roots dangling tentacles…
The ntal waves produced by its screeches were enough to immobilize them all.
It was as if witnessing the advent of the end of ti.
“It looks like we can’t escape after all…”
Everyone present despaired.
If they weren’t mistaken, this was definitely a demon of a caliber comparable to a third-tier Virtue Knight or higher!
But just then, everyone suddenly felt a rumbling vibration in the air…
The waves of ntal contamination assaulting them in succession also weakened as a result…
While they were puzzled, they suddenly saw a “teor” falling from the sky, directly smashing onto the horrifying creature that had driven them to utmost despair.
With just one blow, he saw that half of the terrifying creature’s body was blasted away.
Everyone present was stunned, then quickly realized sothing.
“Is it… the Divine Envoy from the ‘Bonfire’? Has it returned from the ‘God Kingdom’?” an incredulous 25-year-old soldier exclaid.
At first, they had all hoped that the Divine Envoy would appear and save them, but after so days passed without sign, they lost hope.
They had not expected to see the Divine Envoy at this critical mont.
At this mont, as the large demon was struck, nurous lesser demons quickly moved to defend the large one.
Seeing this, the escapees near the area breathed a sigh of relief.
The voices erupting from this large demonic entity targeted a very vast area…
Fortunately, the Envoy of God had finally arrived…
However, Yeager was just about to sit down and rest when he noticed, in the dense woods not far away, several figures rapidly moving away, apparently chasing after sothing…
“These people…”
Yeager rembered, back when they were in the territory, he seed to have noticed them there as well.
In fact, he suspected that the outbreak of this minor Catastrophe of the Magic Fog was also related to these people…
Without hesitation, he imdiately followed them.
As one of the promising Squire Knights regarded highly by the Knight Commander, he was also no stranger to tracking.
“This aura, could it be… the Cultists from the Gluttonous Feast? What are they doing here?” Yeager puzzled internally. He had heard of these cultists, who ca from nowhere, with an abnormally huge appetite, consuming anything edible, as if never satisfied.
Once, these cultists devoured all the food in a city.
Then, unsatisfied, they ate all the plants…
And in the end, they devoured everything that could be swallowed.
About half a month ago, during the “God War” in the vicinity, the Knight Legion and the Church had organized a siege against them, and he had participated, which is why he rembered the aura.
Not long after he started moving, he arrived deep within the forest.
Just as he wondered what was happening…
he suddenly saw the group quicken their pace toward a dense forest, followed swiftly by the sound of clashing weapons.
“Are there still people here? Wait a minute, is that… Warden Calder?”
Yeager had just caught up when he saw a man, as tall as a little giant at three ters high, his body shrouded in a thin light of Glory, fiercely battling these cultists.
He was familiar with this man who had recently survived the “Catastrophe of the Magic Fog” and beco the “Virtue Knight—Glory”.
Not far behind Warden Calder lay a man who, with the exception of his right hand, had all his limbs amputated, the stumps simply wrapped in bandages, and a huge wound in his chest.
Yeager rembered that this seed to be the Warden’s nephew who had previously led a group of people in an escape.
He had not expected the nephew’s current situation to be so dire.
And in the middle of this group, a little girl was encircled…
“Is this… Little Red?”
Yeager almost imdiately recognized this girl as the one who often followed by the Envoy of God’s side.
“Who exactly are you? So of your habits and reflexes don’t seem typical of cultists. What is your purpose, and why would you lay hands on a little girl…”
Warden Calder waved his greatsword as he attempted to gather information.
Unfortunately, the enemy did not respond and instead more figures launched attacks on him from other directions…
Even as a first-tier Virtue Knight, it was very difficult for him to face a dozen “cultists” alone.
Suddenly, Warden Calder’s heart chilled as he saw several figures pass by his side, initiating an attack on the little girl behind him, and the others were also busy dealing with enemies, unable to protect her.
But just as they were about to succeed, Yeager’s figure appeared in front of Little Red, blocking these attacks.
“Who’s this?”
Calder was taken aback, feeling that the figure was familiar but unrecognizable, but he could tell from the “Knight’s Six Techniques” high-speed movent that this was probably a fairly capable squire.
The stalemate between them instantly deepened once again.
But overall, the situation was still not optimistic.
However, perhaps sensing sothing, a figure in a dark blue-black robe walked out from the woods, looked toward Calder and the others, and said with a hoarse voice:
“Hand over the girl to our ‘Gluttonous Feast’, or everyone here will die!”
Now he seed more impatient than before, sensing perhaps that an unexpected turn was coming.
“Hey, I thought you guys were like mutes, destined to never speak…”
Warden Calder swung his greatsword to deflect his enemies, about to say sothing more, when his face suddenly took on a bizarre expression and he swiftly found an opening to jump backward.
Seeing this, the dark blue-black robed figure thought they were finally giving in.
But at that mont, he suddenly heard the Warden speak:
“To be honest, if I were you, I would start running now.”
“What do you an…”
The voice of the dark blue-black robed figure abruptly stopped, and then he seed to swallow hard, as his gaze slowly drifted downward to the right.
Unnoticed, a hand ablaze with fire had co to rest on his own shoulder.
Looking back along the fiery hand, he saw a man slowly burning, staring back at him impassively.
When did he get there, and how was he so fast? The figure in the blue-black robe was shocked, breaking out in a cold sweat.
He knew that Colin had once again descended upon this land, but he had not anticipated the other party would appear so quickly!
The surrounding space beca viscous at that mont, with countless orange-red glows surging, and the terrible oppression felt like suffocating magma.
“It seems you hold a particular interest in Little Red?”
Colin stated coldly, looking at the man.
Having said that, he was ready to take action, to completely subdue these fellows and understand the situation…
But at that mont, the man’s life force disappeared rapidly, his body decayed quickly, the skin lted, bones disintegrated, and large chunks of flesh fell from his robe, turning into a putrid red liquid…
Not just him, but all the assailants at the scene experienced an incomprehensible decay.
“It’s a vicious curse; they have committed suicide due to mission failure. It seems that person doesn’t want us to track them down…” Calder’s voice ca from up ahead.
When Colin looked at him, Calder’s figure was shrinking back into the sowhat portly middle-aged appearance.
“I know, I can tell…”
After Colin spoke, he shifted his gaze from the pile of rotten flesh on the ground and nodded to the first person he had t when he arrived in the Other World:
“Long ti no see.”
