Before, whenever she nestled in her mother's arms, her mother would read this to her, but now she can only read it to herself.
The second-tier demon bat couldn't understand any of this; it only knew that the shrill cries of humans were so melodious and that human flesh and blood were so delicious.
"Squeak-"
It cried out, its voice filled with joy, and pounced on the little girl.
But it was horrified to find that its body could no longer move forward even an inch.
Even though it tried its best, its huge wings still couldn't break free from the hand behind it.
It gripped it like a pair of iron clamps.
Before it could even react, intense pain suddenly spread throughout its entire body.
"Squeak!!!"
It was trembling all over from the pain.
Luo Xiu waved his hands behind him, as if treating the demon bat's body as a piece of paper, folding and crumpling it continuously.
Soon, Luo Xiu crushed the second-tier demonic bat into a bloody mist.
He bent down and hugged the shivering little girl on the ground.
The moment his hand touched the little girl, he could clearly feel her body tremble.
He silently turned around and stepped over the corpses of the three fourth-tier demon bats.
Yes, the three fourth-tier demonic bats that were targeting him had already been turned into mincemeat before he saved the little girl.
A power of 1500 points is no joke.
These demonic bats made a strategic mistake; none of them were fifth-tier demonic bats.
They did not expect Luo Xiu to appear.
Luo Xiu carried the unconscious little girl in one arm as he walked down the street, while using the other hand to eliminate the passing demonic bats.
He doesn't have the ability to create clones, so even at his fastest speed, he can't completely stop these demonic bats.
"emission!!!"
In the distance, a familiar voice caught his attention.
He turned around and walked in that direction.
Rose, with blonde hair, soon came into view.
At her feet, a gray-white color spread out in an area.
In her hand, a huge golden bow was drawn. With each shot, nine silver-white arrows appeared on the bowstring and shot out like meteors, hitting the demonic bats.
A burst of blood flowers erupted.
Beside her, a figure flickered, wielding two daggers, leaping through patches of shadow, killing all the demonic bats that tried to approach Rose.
Lundelor.
At this moment, Lundel finally got a chance to catch his breath, wiping the sweat that was mixed with blood from his forehead.
Originally, he had to face the attack of three fourth-tier demon bats by himself. Even with Rose's arrows interfering, it was still very difficult to defend. But just now, one of the fourth-tier demon bats suddenly left and disappeared.
He wiped the sweat from his forehead, and suddenly his vision blurred as Luo Xiu appeared before him.
How is the battle going now?
“Say it to me in the simplest and most straightforward way.”
Luo Xiu spoke faster than before, without even calling out Lundel's name. He had already sensed that Leila's speed in killing the second-tier demon bats was starting to slow down, which was not a good sign. There was no time to waste.
"The ten vice-commanders, along with Lord Baal and Lord Milair, both of the upper fourth rank, and Lords Lanslow and Chera, both of the lower fourth rank, a total of four people, set off for the city forty minutes ago."
"The remaining six will stay in the city."
"Watch out! Lord Luo Xiu!"
A look of surprise flashed across Lundel's eyes as the fourth-tier demon bat suddenly charged toward Luo Xiu, who was talking to him, and Luo Xiu seemed completely unprepared.
But the next second, the surprise in his eyes turned into shock.
Luo Xiu didn't even turn around. Instead, he simply stretched out his other arm, which wasn't holding the little girl, and grabbed the head of the fourth-tier demon bat. His speeding figure was forcibly brought to a stop.
"Bang!!!"
The fourth-tier demon bat's head, resembling a plump watermelon, was smashed open, splattering fresh watermelon juice all over the ground.
"Gudu."
Even knowing it was inappropriate, Lundel couldn't help but swallow.
The man in front of me has become stronger again.
This doesn't resemble a human at all; it's more monstrous than a monster.
He dared not imagine what level Luo Xiu had reached; he only felt that he could not see through the blond man in front of him at all.
"Where is Dorian, and where is Bodejlika?"
Luo Xiu's hand, which had crushed the demon bat, trembled rapidly in the air, cleaning up the blood in less than half a second.
"Dorian has gone to protect Lady Hathaway, Lady Bodejlica... in the Knights, with your friend."
Lundel hesitated before speaking.
To be honest, he had no idea what Pojelica was doing. There was a severe shortage of manpower, yet she and the silver-haired man were frantically flipping through files in the archives room.
But he dared not object, for he knew it was the man's order.
If you don't understand something, don't speak up. This is one of his principles.
"it is good."
Luo Xiu nodded:
"There must be people from the Chamber of Commerce and the college as well."
"The Chamber of Commerce has relatively few fourth-tier combatants and is responsible for the Waste Gold Street area, while the Academy is responsible for the Kanriel Market area."
"Okay, keep going, don't worry."
Luo Xiu turned and left, his cloak fluttering in the air:
"We can win."
"Om-"
Almost the instant Luo Xiu finished speaking, an unprecedented white magic array suddenly opened in the sky, forming a barrier in front of the swarm of demonic bats.
Luo Xiu looked up and saw a figure dressed in robes of various colors, dressed like a flower parrot, standing at the very top of the high wall.
He held two equally ornate staffs in his left and right hands, channeling magic power into the enormous magic circle in the sky.
Second in line for the Knights: Peggy.
"You damned bastards, try this!!!"
Peggy smiled fiercely, and surging, violent magic power poured out from the two staffs. The huge white magic circle stirred up countless invisible blades that slashed through the air, trying to cut through the black curtain formed by the demonic bats.
"Shuashuashua——"
Streaks of blood bloomed in the air, leaving marks on this invisible blade.
In the sky, the fourth-tier demonic bats simultaneously spewed out torrents of black liquid, which crashed into the white magic array. Peggy's body swayed violently, and she spat out a mouthful of blood.
But he still had a smile on his lips. The white magic circle suddenly grew larger, splitting into three layers, overlapping each other to completely seal off the space above.
Mage Tier 4 Skill: [Void Slash]
Like thousands of swords flashing past, the black torrent was also shattered into fragments.
But Peggy's face grew increasingly pale; this move had taken a heavy toll on him.
fortunately……
"In the name of Chloran, grant life to the survivors."
"In the name of Sutiram, may the hero be empowered."
"In the name of the mother of all things, may fortune be bestowed upon the living."
Hathaway appeared on the other side of the city wall, her staff raised high, her pure white priest's robes shining like a beacon in the night sky. Instantly, three magic circles unfolded on the ground.
Endless rain of light surged from the magic circle, flowing upstream and dripping into everyone's bodies.
[Pastor's Prayer - Vitality]
[Pastor's Prayer - Strength]
[Pastor's Prayer - Good Fortune]
Triple casting!
This is the foundation of the youngest fourth-rank priest in Kanriel's history.
This is also the foundation of Canril's legacy.
As the light rain entered their bodies, everyone felt a sense of lightness, as if warm spring water was flowing into their hearts. Not only were their physical wounds healed, but their spirits were also invigorated.
"Lord Luo Xiu!"
Rose finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had just seen Luo Xiu approach and crush the fourth-tier demon bat, but she didn't have time to speak to him. Now, seeing Luo Xiu about to leave, she opened her mouth and shouted at him.
Luo Xiu didn't turn his head, but he slowed his pace a little.
"explain."
Luo Xiu's tone was calm and gentle, and the little girl in his arms was sleeping peacefully.
"Kanriel will win! Please!"
Rose shouted, but her voice was drowned out by the roar of the battlefield.
She watched Luo Xiu's figure disappear, unsure if he had heard her.
But it doesn't matter if she didn't hear it; she was saying that to herself more than anything.
"Ah."
