Chapter 489 - Sudden Change
“Lea!” Gu Mengmeng stretched her hand out to grab onto Lea worriedly but to no avail. The drum fell to the ground, giving off a loud ‘gong’ before rolling towards one side.
Gu Mengmeng thought that she would fall together with the drum but a strength as strong as iron tightly encircled her waist, holding her body in place firmly.
Raising her head, she met eyes with Elvis’s dark blue eyes.
His brows were tightly furrowed and his sweat dropped like a rainfall. He was clearly in so much agony but was still trying to press on.
“Hubby… what’s wrong? What’s wrong with all of you?” Gu Mengmeng completely did not know what was happening and she could only hold onto Elvis’s shoulders with both her hands, staring right into his eyes.
Elvis’s whole body was shivering but he could still control his strength as he placed Gu Mengmeng down onto the ground slowly. Clenching his teeth, he squeezed out some words from the gaps of his teeth, “Don’t run off……danger…..”
Then, he lied on the ground as if something was squashing him. No matter how much strength he exerted, he could not sit up straight.
This scene….
Is so familiar.
It resembled the scene where others could not sit up straight after Elvis emitted his beast pressure.
Gu Mengmeng stood up and scanned her surroundings but she realized that she was the only one standing. Many orcs were so affected by the beast pressure until they could not maintain their human forms and even those few who had some strength could not get off the ground just like Elvis.
“Arhwoo arhwoo arhwoo….!”
A familiar howl tugged onto Gu Mengmeng’s heart. She turned to look towards the direction of the sound and it was Hede and his brothers.
The four little rascals were trapped in tree vines and were being pulled out of the tribe by someone.
Gu Mengmeng could not care much about Elvis’s instruction as she darted off and chased after them.
But her speed was too slow. When she reached the boundaries of the tribe, Hede and his brothers had long disappeared.
“Hede!” Gu Mengmeng shouted at the top of her voice, “Chixuan! Jialue! Kanwu!”
None of her kids replied her….
Gu Mengmeng plopped onto the ground, her brain exploding with a boom.
She’s such a f****ing useless messenger of the Beast Deity, she could do nothing but nail-biting under this kind of situation!
Gu Mengmeng knew that crying could not help with anything but all she could do was stand rooted to the spot, not knowing which direction to head to.
“Come up.” A familiar voice rang. Gu Mengmeng raised her head and saw Ian standing in front of her in his half-orc form with his wings spread out, ready to fly anytime. His forehead was dotted with perspiration and clearly, he was so affected by the beast pressure until he had difficulty breathing. A wound on his leg with blood gushing out wrenched one’s heart but Gu Mengmeng did not have much time to care for him as she leaped onto Ian’s back instantly.
When Ian caught Gu Mengmeng, he evolved into his eagle-owl form and flapped his wings, flying into the skies.
The higher he flew, the more stable his condition was. After circling for a few rounds, he started flying towards a direction.
At this alarming height, Gu Mengmeng was almost blind even though her eyes were wide open. She could not see anything. Other than the sound of wind blowing into her ears, none of her other five senses were in use. Now, the only thing she could rely on was the Ian she was riding on.
After flying for two days, Gu Mengmeng and Ian reached Sauder.
Standing in front of Sauder’s entrance, Gu Mengmeng was already stuck in a blank state. After two days of flying without any sleep or rest, Ian and Gu Mengmeng were completely drained. The only support Gu Mengmeng had was the belief of saving her sons.
“Are Hede and his brothers here?” Gu Mengmeng asked Ian.
Ian shook his head and said with a weak voice, “When we took off, Hede and his brothers had already disappeared.”
