Chapter 810 - The Falcon’s Beacon (V)
Everything’s going well.
Gaya gazed at the battlefield silently. She stroked her fingers gently on the harp strings.
“———!”
An indescribable impact sounded. The solid walls crumbled completely as an invisible sound wave destroyed everything in its path and turned all obstacles into powder. In an instant, white powder fluttered in the air and the Undead Creatures were nowhere to be seen.
That’s all they got?
Gaya let out a grunt and approached the burning battlefield that was covered in smoke. The Undead Creatures stood no chance against her attack, but they weren’t what Gaya was concerned about. She gazed in disdain at the soldiers charging forward in the distance. They yelled bravely with weapons held high. All this was meaningless to Gaya.
How unsightly. These weaklings are greedy with desire and are just like moths drawn to a flame. They care only about the things before their eyes and neglect the dangers of flames. They will eventually die meaninglessly.
How disgusting!
Gaya stroked her fingers across the harp strings as yet another sound wave blasted forth, crashing and shattering into the mountain peak in the near distance.
“Huhuhu… I’m really surprised…” A pair of maroon eyes stared at this scene from the darkness. The radiance from its eyes brightened abruptly in frantic spiritual flames. “… I never thought that I would be this lucky. I shall let you, dear Madam Gaya, have a taste of this supreme strength…”
“… Rhode…”
“Christie?”
Rhode turned to her quickly. The latter was panting and looking pale. She had almost exhausted all her strength from running and it seemed as though she would collapse at anytime. Even though Lize had cast several spiritual spells to strength and maintain her strength, there were still restrictions to spiritual spells, after all. It seemed like Christie couldn’t hang on anymore.
“Do you need a rest, Christie?”
Even though Rhode knew that this was a bad idea, he could only blame himself for bringing her along. Anne and Lize agreed to his suggestion. Although it was dangerous for them to stay here, Christie would be in huge trouble if they continued running.
But to everyone’s surprise, Christie shook her head and gazed at Rhode.
“Be… Be careful…”
“Be careful?”
Everyone raised their vigilance instantly. They held their weapons and scanned the surroundings. But… apart from the dark tunnel, there was nothing for them to be wary of. The Guardian Spirits that harassed them before were nowhere to be found too.
“Be careful of what, Christie?”Rhode asked. He knew that this little girl wouldn’t make up any lies. Christie knitted her brows and shook her head worriedly.
“… I don’t know… Rhode… But… I don’t feel safe… Something bad is about to… Ahh…!”
Before Christie finished her sentence, the entire tunnel shook and the strong trembles shook their footing and they fell to the ground. However, unlike the others, Christie cowered and screamed painfully at the top of her lungs. Then, indistinct purple light flowed from her body!
“Christie!”
Rhode reached out for her immediately. But as soon as he held onto her shoulder, everything before him turned pitch-black and an immense pain broke out in his head. The unbearable pain left him grunting. He clenched her fists, lowered his head, and found himself sinking into total darkness…
