The explosion wasn't the main concern.

Baiyu could clearly see through the large floor-to-ceiling windows of the Villiduo Library.

In the distance, in the darkness, there were things running on rooftops.

With Baiyu's vision, these things were only tiny dots when he saw them.

As for what exactly they were, he couldn't tell.

However.

A black dot was rushing towards the library.

What exactly it was, they would soon know.

At that moment.

Due to the night lockdown of the city, those who could still stay in the library to read were not of ordinary identity.

On the vast first floor of the library, there were only Baiyu and a few others.

Upon hearing the commotion.

The other few people also drew closer to the window, trying to figure out what was going on.

However.

The black dot rushing from afar became larger and more distinct as it approached.

Blazing flames burned on its body.

At first glance, Baiyu felt as if he had been struck spiritually, like a punch to the brain from someone in the dark.

Heart Fire Wolf!

He recognized this creature immediately.

The reason being that he had dealt with an incident caused by a Heart Fire Wolf at the Villiduo Veterans Mutual Aid Association.

That was when.

The retired veteran's ashes had been burned beyond recovery, and Baiyu had no way to save him.

"Run, leave this place."

Seeing the gigantic Heart Fire Wolf rushing over.

Baiyu didn't hesitate, he turned and said, "Avoid this thing, if you get touched by it, you're doomed."

In the empty hall.

Several people who were still watching the distant explosion were stunned.

Not everyone could see the Heart Fire Wolf, seemingly only those with Spiritual Power meeting certain requirements could see it.

Baiyu could see it simply because his Spiritual Power had always been extraordinarily high.

To others.

This was just an exceptionally unusual large explosion.

Moreover, the library had a Protective Spirit Array, and such large official establishments, apart from the Protective Spirit Array, also had a dedicated Guard Team.

With the accident happening now, the guards were certainly taking action.

"Brother, aren't you overreacting? Would outside be safer than the library right now?"

"Yeah, there's absolutely no danger here, why run?"

"Even if you're timid, there's no need to be so scared."

Someone in the crowd questioned.

Baiyu didn't have time to explain much, the matter of the Heart Fire Wolf wasn't something that could be explained in a couple of sentences.

Even if he could explain it clearly.

These people might still not believe him.

After trying to persuade them several times to no avail, and even attracting a lot of ridicule, Baiyu finally gave up on them.

There was no need.

He had done his best.

The truth proved that fools were beyond saving.

Seeing the Heart Fire Wolf getting closer, Baiyu slipped out from the back of the library.

The cold wind in the street blew against him.

His skin felt like it was being pricked by needles.

A Tier Six Martial Artist, natural heat and cold basically wouldn't affect them.

A cold wind that could make a Tier Six Martial Artist's skin sting wasn't normal natural weather.

"Something big is happening."

Baiyu's face turned grim.

However, he saw a head poking out from the library's back exit.

It was a little girl, like a doll carved from jade.

Around 1.5 meters tall.

Not fully grown, shorter by far than the Moon Lady.

Baiyu had an impression of her.

In the library, the girl was brought by a noblewoman, sitting quietly at a table reading.

The other wore a specially-made silk Lolita dress, light pink flat shoes, and swan-colored knee-high socks.

The dotted skirt of the Lolita covered her smooth thighs.

Very cute.

"Can you take me with you? My father is the Divine Hall Master of the Holy Light Church. If you save me, he will reward you!"

The little girl's eyes showed some panic, but on her face, she tried hard to express a calm expression.

At her age, being so calm was already extremely rare.

However.

The traces were still obvious.

Baiyu didn't agree, but instead asked, "Where are your adults? I remember there was a woman with you."

The girl gritted her teeth and shook her head, "That stupid woman, I've already warned her, but she ignored it, only concerned with her affair, she deserves to die."

Baiyu felt an inexplicable urge to laugh at her tone.

Like a very childish kid speaking in an extremely mature and composed tone.

However.

Her words caught Baiyu's attention.

No matter what domestic conflicts this little girl had, but the fact that she believed him was unexpected for Baiyu.

"You believe what a stranger like me says?"

Baiyu asked, staring at her.

The girl clenched the hem of her dress: "Because you're telling the truth, I can see, see the terrifying creature coming from afar.

At that moment.

The entire library will be engulfed in raging flames.

Those flames won't burn physical objects, but they will burn everyone's souls, like the legendary hellfire."

Baiyu was truly shocked this time.

She could actually see?

How could such a young child have such strong Spiritual Power?

"I can not only see it but also foresee the tragic fate of these people; they will be consumed by the hellfire, none will survive."

The little girl gestured dramatically with her hands.

Seemingly more relaxed as they talked, she lost much of her earlier restraint.

Baiyu looked at her with an expression of tender incredulity, wondering if this child might have some mental illness?

However.

As the Heart Fire Wolf drew closer, Baiyu's Spirit could already sense the heat.

"You can come with me, but no tricks, behave, understood?"

Baiyu thought for a moment and said.

The girl nodded vigorously like a pecking chick.

Once she agreed, she felt a large hand grab her waist, picking her up.

Like luggage, she was carried on Baiyu's waist.

A little girl weighing only dozens of pounds.

Baiyu could carry her effortlessly with one hand, like holding a phone in his hand.

With no pressure at all.

He carried the girl, took a big detour, and returned to the street where he had parked earlier.

Then tossed the girl into the passenger seat, while he sat in the driver's seat, and started the steam engine car.

"Wow, this is the latest Stormrider bike!

It is said that the steam transmission device inside was personally designed by people from the Mechanical Cult.

There are only ten thousand units available nationwide!"

The girl marveled as she touched the car frame.

For the first time, Baiyu felt that bringing her along was a mistake, how could she still be interested in the car at a time like this?

It seemed her previous calm and steady demeanor was completely an act.

She was likely a troublemaker.

But since he had already made the choice, he couldn't just throw her out now.

That would truly make him a villain.

"Buckle up, no time to explain."

Baiyu took a deep breath, and with the Heart Fire Wolf closing in, he immediately started the motorcycle.
