I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head Chapter 417 - Tragedy, Saving Lives

Chapter 417: Tragedy, Saving Lives

Sha Peng and the others nodded their heads with great difficulty. Although they were unwilling to admit it, the truth was that they could not do much in their current state. After all, they had just fought a great battle and did not have much of a choice.

“How about this? I think Ruan Yingyu will definitely not be willing to wait. I’ll leave with her first. You guys make some adjustments before heading out. The monster swarm is ongoing. The battle will not end anytime soon. There will be a b.l.o.o.d.y battle. It’d be better if you guys made some adjustments first and prepared for an even bigger battle,” Chu Yunfan said.

Ruan Yingyu nodded. She was at a loss for what to do at the moment, but she was definitely not willing to just wait around. She thought of her parents, relatives, and friends in Verdant City. If any of them were to suffer as a result of the disaster… She did not dare imagine the consequences.

“Let’s go. We’ll be off first.”

Chu Yunfan climbed onto the Thunder Winged Beast beside him. Then, he reached his hand out toward Ruan Yingyu.

Ruan Yingyu raised her head and revealed a somewhat shy expression. She had never ridden on anything with a man before. But there was no time to linger on this. She hurriedly grabbed Chu Yunfan’s hand and sat behind him on the Thunder Winged Beast.

“We’re off!” Chu Yunfan shouted. The Thunder Winged Beast beneath him was telepathically connected to him. It instantly leaped out and transformed into a blue lightning bolt as it flew toward the direction of Verdant City.

Sha Peng and the rest exchanged glances. After which, Sha Peng said, “All right, let’s stop staring at each other. Let’s take turns to rest. After we’ve recovered our strength, we too will rush to Verdant City.”

Their strength might not be of much use in the face of a monster swarm, but when tens of thousands of people like them gathered together, they would be of great use.

Meanwhile, Chu Yunfan and Ruan Yingyu rode the Thunder Winged Beast and swiftly made their way to Verdant City. Ruan Yingyu was worried about the safety of her family and was not in the mood to continue being shy. She took Qi Replenishing Pills and energy elixirs whilst on the back of the Thunder Winged Beast to recover her strength and True Energy.

“Don’t worry. It’ll be fine,” Chu Yunfan said.

Although she knew that Chu Yunfan was only comforting her, Ruan Yingyu felt a lot more at ease after hearing these words.

The Thunder Winged Beast was fast. In just seconds, it had crossed a vast distance. In just half an hour, it had arrived in the vicinity of Verdant City. Gradually, they could see the many monsters that were rushing toward the towering city wall.

......

The scene was shocking. On one side was the endless city wall, while on the other were countless monsters. If one looked down from the sky, one would clearly see the monsters crashing into the city wall like a wild tide as they charged into the city.

At this moment, the entire city wall’s defense system had completely crumbled. The defense system was no longer connected to a single system. Only a few scattered troops were left defending the wall. These strongholds were like small boats in an endless tide. They could capsize at any time.

Chu Yunfan hurriedly urged the Thunder Winged Beast to speed up and rush over. Within moments, it had reached the bottom of the city wall. The Thunder Winged Beast let out a long cry and then began to scale the city wall, its claws fiercely digging into the metal city wall. Shortly, it arrived at the top of the wall.

A few Qi Sea Stage monsters were climbing over the wall. With a roar, the Thunder Winged Beast scared these Qi Sea monsters so much that they fell off the city wall, which was more than a hundred meters long. They were instantly turned into minced meat.

Chu Yunfan looked around and found that more than half of the city had fallen. On the other side of the city, the second line of defense, which was usually hidden, had finally surfaced. A second huge wall had been erected. Countless metal bullets were being fired, sweeping away the monsters that were charging at them.

But the monsters were not afraid of death. It was as if there was no end to them as they continuously charged at the second line.

There were many running towards the second line as monsters chased after them. The citizens were wearing suits, casual clothes, and many different articles of clothing. They were clearly just ordinary citizens. They had some level of martial skills, but in terms of strength, they were not very strong. Even those in the Innate Stage might not be able to beat the ordinary students of Federation University who were at the peak of the Qi Refinement Stage.

The citizens ran for their lives.

An office worker in a suit was jumping on the walls of the city. But when his feet landed on a gla.s.s wall, a b.l.o.o.d.y maw suddenly burst out of the wall and swallowed him whole. The office worker was killed in an instant.

“Hurry up and go. Go contact your parents then retreat to the second line. I’m going to save as many as I can.”

Chu Yunfan took a deep breath. As he watched the horrifying scene before him, his eyes were filled with a fury that could not be suppressed. Those monsters and those people from the Monster Cult deserved to die.

“Be careful!” Ruan Yingyu nodded. She then ran toward the second line of defense as she contacted her family. She knew that she would not be of much help to Chu Yunfan. After all, the difference in their strength was too great.

After Chu Yunfan watched Ruan Yingyu leave, he leaped into the distance. In midair, he used the Thousand Pound Drop and instantly landed on the ground. The Thunder Winged Beast followed him and landed on the ground silently.

“Run!”

There was a pair of grandfather and grandson not far away. The grandfather was carrying his grandson as he flew toward Chu Yunfan. Behind him was a huge monster that was chasing after him. The monster opened its b.l.o.o.d.y mouth as if to swallow them alive.

When the old man spotted Chu Yunfan, he quickly called out to warn him.

The b.l.o.o.d.y mouth of the beast had taken a bite out of the old man’s back.

Swoosh!

Chu Yunfan stomped the ground, and within seconds, he was in front of the b.l.o.o.d.y mouth. The Shadowless Saber in his hand slashed down.

Slice!

Chu Yunfan instantly killed the monster. The beast may have looked scary, but it was only at the peak of the Energy Refinement Stage.
