Chapter 77: Firelight
Whenever someone at the back discovers that the Slippery Gourd is approaching quickly and is unable to escape, they immediately stop, turn around, and rush to fight, buying time for those behind to flee.
Even after repeated activation of the Dragon-breaking Stone by Rita, it couldn’t halt the steps of the pursuing demon.
People keep dying, some couldn’t bear the torment of the countdown to death, and they turn around in a frenzy to fight back, but under regional constraints, even with sharp weapons, the damage inflicted on the Slippery Gourd remains insufficient, resulting in their hunting.
In this narrow tunnel, they all seem to become prey, with the Slippery Gourd deliberately delaying to torment them.
"We’ve arrived!"
Rita, holding back all along, let out a low roar, took a step, leaped high, and crashed through the iron plate above, exiting the tunnel first.
Lu Ren followed closely behind, feeling a slight relief once feet touched solid ground.
The oppression in the tunnel nearly drove them mad.
This is an outpost on a hill outside Chentai City, taking in the view, the calamity within the city is apparent.
Inside the city, fires rage everywhere, bodies lie scattered, blood dyes the canal trenches red, creating a scene of terror!
When they come out, only three remain, including Lu Ren, Rita, and a man with a constantly cold look.
"Everyone else died."
