Chapter 331 Rescue
This chapter is updated by NovelFree.ml
The Tunnel Eye Serpent was just too massive.
Since it was also in a location high above, the citizens in Crookes were all frightened by its presence and began to drag their families with them to flee the city.
Such chaotic reaction further escalated the panic in the city, leaving every path congested by droves of citizens trying to flee and causing one trampling incident after another. Even before the monster had reached the city, the death toll had immediately reached two digits and rising.
Meanwhile, most Players were following Edward’s group out of the city to fight the Tunnel Eye Serpent, whereas third and fourth-rate Players like Simba remained in the city.
They were weaker in comparison and didn’t have the ability to join a battle against a World Boss. After all, they would lose a lot of EXP instead of gaining any.
“This can’t continue!”
Simba was scowling on a roof and watching as the waves of people below surged. “The young and old would die in the stampede. We have to help them!”
“How?” Zazu asked, grimacing while holding his magic staff. “You’ll get trampled to death if you try to stop them. Moreover, we don’t have any Resurrection Ankh-we could only revive in three days.” “That’s right, Simba… it’s too dangerous.” Nala agreed.
“I’ll try to guide them forward or at least clear the way for them and widen the path…” Simba said, his teeth gritting in resolve.
With that, he was ready to jump off the roof.
“Don’t be stupid!” Zazu quickly stopped him. “The people are now scared out of their minds; they won’t care even if you shout yourself hoarse! You’re dying for nothing? Don’t you believe me?”
“I know, Zazu. I understand everything you’re saying.” Simba replied solemnly. “I could die if I jump down right now… but so what if I die?”
“Huh?” Zazu didn’t understand what Simba meant.
“Zazu. We don’t really die after we joined the Church of Games, since we would just come back to life in three days… but the people down there only live once, and would really die if they are killed.” Simba said earnestly to his friend. “Even if I could save just one person and exchange their one-time life with my infinite life is good enough, and I would do it even if it kills me. Do you get what I’m saying?”
“You’re too nice…”
Since Simba had put it that way, Zazu doesn’t feel the need to stop him now.
“No way. I might not help anyone if I had only one life and wouldn’t be revived when I die.” Simba smiled in relief when he saw that Zazu had given up on dissuading him. “How is that nice?”
“Fine.” Zazu whipped out a cloth out of nowhere and started to wipe the tip of his magic staff firmly, making it dazzling and intimidating before going to stand beside Simba. “Count me in, then I want to feel what it’s like being the good guy. What about you, Nala?”
The girl made a helpless look at the question, but couldn’t help smiling either. “I’m definitely coming. I could revive you both if you die, but just don’t die too soon since the skill cooldown is super slow.”
“Complain to Simba only. It’s his idea.”
Zazu stood at the edge of the roof and looked down, ready to jump.
That was when a small window bounced up in front of their eyes. [Shareable side quest stared: One for all, all for one]
(For the God of Games loves the world-even those who don’t believe in him has the right to his mercy. Under his wise and gallant guidance, it is time to show who the Players are to the ignorant who had yet to put their faith in him!)
[Quest objective: With Players ‘Simba’ in command, evacuate as many citizens of Crookes to safety as it is possible, thereby elevating the reputation of the Church of Games in these parts.)
[Quest Rewards: Each participating Player will receive a time-limited Resurrection Ankh (disappears automatically in 12 hours), 1 to 3 level 30 blue or purple item containers depending on performance)
[Note: Attacking unreasonable brutes with non-lethal blows would not result in red-naming. Please do not hold back from beating up any immoral thug who can’t listen to others.]
The trio stared at the new quest in surprise.
Zazu was the first one to react.
“He really is the God of Games! He is always watching over us.” He beamed.
Having been orphaned as a child, having such a great power supporting him felt wonderful.
Hence, he turned towards Simba. “If it was you, I think you would selflessly try to save others even if you only had one life.”
With that, he leaped off the roof.
***
While the third and fourth-rate Players were busy aiding and guiding the fleeing citizens, a fierce battle was being waged on the other side.
The Red Eyes Black Dragon had taken to the skies as it breathed waves of flames from its maw that resembled red lotuses.
The blazing flames detonated over the craggy skin of the Tunnel Eye Snake.
But nothing happened.The monster merely kept its head low as it continued towards the city of Crookes. It simply collided with the Red Eyes Black Dragon when it stood before it, reducing it into a bundle of flames that vanished into thin air.
In the distance, Edward’s face had turned pale-white.
“Even a level fifty Colored Skill has no effect… could my theory really be wrong?” He wasn’t close at all, but Edward could still see everything His Red Eyes Dark Dragoon Blast had struck the Tunnel Eye Serpent’s body, but it didn’t hit the targeted Illum crystal—when the flames were about to reach it, a thin screen of light resembling a soap bubble appeared over it.
It blocked the black dragon’s flames even though it would burst with the slightest touch.
“Sniping doesn’t work either… the bolts would rebound by some passive ability when it pierces the screen, and explosive arrows wouldn’t detonate…” Gou Dan added with a frown. “It’s meaningless for normal arrows to pierce its body too, since it is all rock.”
“The distance is just too far. How about we try attacking from a closer range?” Joe, who lacked any long-range attack as a swordsman suggested. “Well, we could give it try.” Edward gambled since things had come to this. “Joe, bring Eleena along. Doug, we’re up.”
“Edward, wait!”
That was when Joe cried out in disbelief while staring behind them. “The sack… Eleena is gone!”
