Although the fury has not yet erupted, it is just like a volcano that is bound to erupt one day, and the more it is suppressed, the more terrifying the subsequent eruption will be!
"Uncle Luca! I’m scared!"
Lulu hugged a slender tentacle tightly, refusing to let go.
The little bunny-eared girl was terrified. The bar that had been so cozy just a moment ago, turned into a dilapidated building in an instant. The vision was filled with fire. If the octopus monster, Luca, hadn’t wrapped his body around Lulu and Kaga milliseconds before the explosion, they might be buried in the sea of flames by now!
Tears of fear ran down Lulu’s big eyes, making her pupils appear even redder.
Kaga, next to her, was unconscious with his eyes tightly closed -- possibly due to an injury sustained during the blast.
As for the other children, Luca couldn’t save in time. As Lulu peeked outside, the sea of fire had abated a little, but the view was full of devastation. She couldn’t spot a single living soul?!
"Uncle Luca?!" When she saw the flames abate, Lulu shook the octopus monster she had been clutching so tightly. But the previously strong tentacle, under Lulu’s weak shaking, silently and softly slipped down...
The tentacle hit the ground, then the huge body wrapping around Lulu and Kaga, completely collapsed.
Lulu was stunned. She could not help but understand: Uncle Luca the octopus monster had used his entire life to save her and Kaga.
"Uncle Luca. Please, wake up." Lulu’s face was smudged with soot, and a large portion of her arm was burnt. But disregarding the pain, she tried to help the fallen octopus monster.
But in the next moment, as if seeing something terrifying, Lulu pulled back her hand in shock. The back of Luca, facing them, had been destroyed, leaving behind some organs slowly losing what appeared to be the monster’s unique transparent blood.
Perhaps it was this monster, possessing a certain amount of power, which was able to withstand a part of the radiant energy protecting Lulu and Kaga.
"DingDing, JiaJia, Kanmen. Where are you!" Lulu called out the names of her companions who had been with her just moments ago, as she looked at the almost indistinguishable cleaning robots. But there was no response.
Lulu saw the bodies of several patrons. They were joking with Lulu just moments ago, now they were lifeless corpses.
"Wu Wu Wu Wu... Everyone, wake up. Lulu is so scared!"
Lulu looked around the devastated bar, burst into tears.
This little bunny-eared girl simply couldn’t bear such pain. She might have understood the hardships of her life, but she always presented herself with a cheerful and optimistic facade, knowing that she, an orphan without parents, wouldn’t survive otherwise.
But now, the young bunny-eared girl was completely broken down.
Another small hand grabbed hold of hers, tightly.
Lulu turned around in surprise and saw a blood-stained Kaga barely standing, pulling Lulu’s hand and stumbling forward.
"We need to leave quickly. Find a safe place to hide." Kaga said and took a wavering step, pulling Lulu forward.
"Kaga..." Lulu cried while following the boy, wiping her tears.
The two children kept climbing through the ruins with countless red lights continuously raining down from the sky. More and more lives in the Earth City were lost and familiar faces ended up in the dirt.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!------------
Daphne held two short guns in her hands. These weapons were from the Ru Lan Empire which had a long history of hostility towards the Auster Empire. Therefore, their weapons were highly targeted. Hence, Daphne’s latest guns provided some combat enhancements when facing these aircraft.
The short guns, which originally would not have been able to penetrate the strong defense of the aircraft, were able to fire a powerful electromagnetic bullet. This bullet, when shot at the Auster Empire’s security officer aircraft, could use a unique magnetic resonance effect to disrupt the aircraft’s anti-gravity flight system.
Thereby, the aircraft hit by Daphne’s bullets seemed to lose power instantly and crashed downward!
However, Daphne, though her strength had increased significantly after donning the equipment, was still not at her true combat power. Hence, facing such a number of aircraft, her ability to carry out single-person combat was limited.
Even with a weapon that could counter the aircraft, her dynamic vision was inadequate, she couldn’t cope with the speed of the security officer aircraft, which reached five, six, even seven times the speed of sound.
"08, 27, 89 regroup as a team. 02, 47, 38 are rebels, I declare that if anyone encounters them, they can be immediately annihilated and their possessions belong to the killers." Daphne clenched her teeth, while her determined and brilliant stance carried an aura of ruthlessness.
Up until now, seven to eight of the strongest individuals in Earth City had died, and, surprisingly, five had managed to escape. This spelled bad news for Earth City, which had few strong ones to begin with.
Daphne glanced over at Big Mosquito, who was continuously pursuing the enemy and whose flight speed had surpassed fifteen times the speed of sound. He was dominating the battlefield, and only then did she loosen her tightly pressed lips slightly.
