Chapter 252: Leaving the Vehicle
As the spatial vortex gradually expanded, a massive figure stepped out from within. It was a giant wolfdog, covered in blood, standing over a hundred meters tall. If placed in a city, it would be comparable to a thirty-story office building.
This blood-red wolfdog stood in the wilderness like a crimson mountain, its fierce gaze fixed on the distant city, its roar echoing like low thunder.
From the fluctuations emanating from it, it was at least a “Klein” level terrifying existence.
Upon seeing the wolfdog, Lu Wuwei furrowed his brows tightly. “Hellhound, Garm…”
But that was not all. After Garm, thick, crimson tentacles began to emerge from the spatial vortex. In the next moment, an even more exaggerated squid, towering nearly one hundred fifty meters high, crawled out.
“Krakens? You even brought the North Sea Giant Monster?” Lu Wuwei’s expression darkened further upon seeing the second beast.
Another “Klein” level mythological beast!
The arrival of two “Klein” level mythological beasts in Cangnan was undoubtedly a devastating blow to a city already on the brink of collapse.
Even the [Phoenix] team could only deal with one of them; who would stop the other beast?
Lu Wuwei placed his hand on the handle of his electric bike, preparing to confront the two “Klein” beasts. Just then, Loki approached him with a smile, lightly waving his hand, and a terrifying pressure descended, causing the ground to sink ten meters!
“Now, who is holding whom back?”
…
Booming thunder—!!
Purple lightning danced beneath the sky as Indra, surrounded by crackling electricity, followed the ethereal carriage, soaring through the air!
“Still trying to run?”
Indra’s brows furrowed slightly, and the surrounding thunder roared, transforming into a holy sword of lightning that slashed directly at the carriage from above!
Bang—!
Inside the speeding carriage, Lin Qiye slowly raised the teacup in his hand. Just as it reached his lips, the carriage jolted violently, spilling tea all over the floor.
Lin Qiye looked up at Master Chen, who was staring at his own teacup, now half-empty, with an awkward expression.
“Master, aren’t we in your heart ‘scenery’?” Lin Qiye couldn’t help but ask, “Could it be that your inner journey… is so fraught with difficulties?”
Master Chen coughed twice and silently placed the teacup back on the table.
“A little mishap, nothing serious.”
“Master.” Lin Qiye looked earnestly into Master Chen’s eyes. “What exactly is happening outside? Why won’t you let me leave?”
“You’re overthinking it; nothing has happened.”
As soon as Master Chen finished speaking, a bolt of purple lightning struck down, tearing open a corner of the heart ‘scenery.’ A small section of the fragrant Chinese courtyard shattered, revealing the broken earth outside and the dense lightning crackling in the air.
In an instant, the heart ‘scenery’ restored itself, as if nothing had just occurred.
“Master, is this what you call… nothing happening?” Lin Qiye’s mouth twitched slightly. “Why do I feel like this carriage is about to fall apart?”
Master Chen silently sipped his tea, not responding.
“Staying here is safer than going out.” After a long silence, Master Chen slowly spoke, “Although I am not skilled in combat, when it comes to defense, I am truly the strongest in the Great Xia. If he wants to truly break my heart ‘scenery,’ he is far from capable.”
“Who? Who is chasing us? What is happening outside?” Lin Qiye’s brows knitted together.
“You don’t need to know.” Master Chen shook his head. “Just quietly drink tea with me here, and when the storm passes, I will ensure you leave unscathed.”
“I don’t want to leave unscathed.” Lin Qiye stared intently into Master Chen’s eyes. “I want to go back.”
“Go back?” Master Chen raised an eyebrow. “Do you know what this city is going through?”
“I don’t know.” Lin Qiye shook his head. “I only know… my family, my comrades, are all in this city.”
Boom—!!
Another bolt of lightning struck down, tearing open another corner of the heart ‘scenery,’ revealing the city shrouded in thunderclouds. The chaotic scenes intertwined like shattered fragments scattering apart.
Master Chen quietly looked at Lin Qiye. “You are too weak; even if you join the battlefield, it won’t change anything.”
“Perhaps.” Lin Qiye did not argue, “But I want to try.”
The shattered heart ‘scenery’ reassembled, the fragrance of flowers and birds reappearing. Yet, in this courtyard filled with the essence of spring, the atmosphere felt as heavy as winter.
“Commander Ye asked me to protect you and not let you interfere in this battle…”
After a long while, Master Chen gazed out at the flower bushes and slowly spoke, “But I have never liked being bound by rigid rules. If you truly want to wade into this murky water, I won’t stop you…
However, you must bear the responsibility for your actions; the truth of the matter is far more brutal than you can imagine.”
He turned to look at Lin Qiye, his gaze profoundly deep. “Lin Qiye, let me ask you, are you really prepared to participate in this battle?”
Lin Qiye met Master Chen’s eyes and, after a moment, nodded firmly.
“Yes.”
“Good, then I will send you out of this thunder domain. Once you are outside, no matter what you see, don’t worry about me; just do what you want to do.”
Master Chen paused, then spoke seriously,
“But you must remember my advice… no matter what you encounter, absolutely do not leave the boundaries of Cangnan City.”
Lin Qiye’s heart was filled with confusion. Although he found this inexplicable advice puzzling, he still nodded.
“Alright!”
Master Chen set down his teacup and gently waved his hand at Lin Qiye. A vast illusion swirled from his wide sleeves, and in the next moment, Lin Qiye’s figure vanished without a trace.
In the large courtyard, only Master Chen remained.
Master Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly, as if he could see through the heart ‘scenery’ and spot Indra relentlessly pursuing the carriage outside, a hint of coldness flickering in his gaze.
“Do you really think I’m afraid of you just because I don’t fight back?!”
…
Ten miles away from the carriage.
Lin Qiye’s figure suddenly appeared, and in that instant, the deafening thunder nearly shattered his eardrums. He turned to look, frozen in place.
In the distant sky, a man with his upper body bare, dressed in dark yellow exotic pants, hovered in the air, exuding an astonishing pressure. The thunderclouds above him crackled with electricity, and two thick bolts of lightning transformed into long halberds, which he hurled with great force!
A torrent of lightning rained down, crashing violently onto the inconspicuous carriage, like a colossal forest of thunder. A lightning halberd fell from the sky, shattering the illusion beside the carriage, causing it to jolt and continue speeding forward!
In just a moment, both the carriage and the lightning quickly disappeared into the distance.
“Is that… the Thunder God?” Lin Qiye felt the lingering divine pressure in the air, his heart filled with shock!
Had he just been sitting in that carriage, drinking tea amidst that thunderous forest?
Master Chen’s heart ‘scenery’ could even withstand the assault of a deity?!
Lin Qiye took a moment to calm himself, quickly climbing up the nearest tall building. Standing on the rooftop, he gazed out over the entire city.
Roar, roar, roar—!
At the edge of the city, two massive beasts were rapidly closing in.
