CHAPTER 794: CHAPTER 391: THE SAVIOR FROM THE HEAVENS

The scene before their eyes was too dazzling.

Yet, when they thought about the countless lives that might be brought by it, nobody at the site viewed it with admiration.

At the side of the public building, the team had immediately risen a protective shield with magic, enveloping both themselves and the building.

At the city walls, Basel and other soldiers had also raised the same kind of protective shields around themselves and the nearby residents.

At this moment, they were truly exerting their strength.

Everyone was striving to survive.

Among them, the most fearful were undoubtedly the ordinary human residents; they were acutely aware that when the villagers lacked the strength, they would be the first to be abandoned.

What they could do now was to offer up anything they could to the professionals, while praying that Hope Village could soon lift this immense burden off their heads, for only then would they truly be saved.

Because Hope Village had accepted them as residents, quite a number of Fasal Village’s citizens had readily come to regard Hope Village with loyalty.

After all, they too had eyes and could see that their original Lord, Wolf, had "hijacked" the lives of the villagers for Hope Village.

The fact that Hope Village was willing to care about their lives, whatever the reason, was worth their gratitude.

In the blink of an eye, as many Fasal Village residents pondered, the river of fire had rapidly descended onto Fasal Village buildings and the ground.

Many unprotected structures, especially those made predominantly of wood, caught fire instantly upon contact with the flames and were engulfed in roaring fires, mostly affecting the private homes of the residents.

Many residents watched their own houses being reduced to nothingness, looking completely forlorn.

Their homes were gone.

And just as they were bemoaning their loss, the explosion sounds that followed immediately jolted them awake.

It turned out that where most of the river of fire had fallen, it only left some scorched marks on the ground, but in some places, the moment it touched the ground, it exploded.

Just then, these explosion sounds were alarmingly close.

"Indeed, Black Stone. They actually turned it into a powder and scattered it throughout the territory, no wonder it was completely untraceable."

"And they even deliberately sprinkled it near the city walls."

"We’re not being left any way to survive!"

"If it weren’t for the protective shield, would we be dying here, just when I thought I was only a step away from escape?"

"It was Hope Village that suggested setting up the protective shields, If we hadn’t listened to Hope Village, the consequences..."

"..."

Everyone was no fool; observing the scene before them, they could infer Wolf’s intentions in this matter.

At this moment, their disappointment in Lord Wolf was complete.

Perhaps, in his eyes, the residents had always been mere tools to be used.

And all the soldiers and professionals who had supported the shields felt fortunate for their protective actions; otherwise, they might not have died, but they certainly would have suffered greatly.

The scene soon quietened down.

Everyone’s gazes turned towards the city gate.

Now, only Hope Village could help them.

At this moment, outside Fasal Village, Zhou Bai had also learned of Wolf’s actions in turning Black Stone into powder and scattering it around the territory’s walls.

Upon learning this, Zhou Bai felt incredibly frustrated.

He had thought Wolf was ruthless enough, but he hadn’t expected him to outdo himself and also manage the repercussions.

If they weren’t careful, Hope Village could actually be outmaneuvered by him.

Zhou Bai felt lucky that he had still retained his humanity and had not been outmaneuvered.

At this moment, Zhou Bai truly wished he could be stronger, to eliminate Wolf early in his tracks, as he could still potentially harm Hope Village in the future.

"What should we do? Is there any way?"

"Can Lord really act like this? He is truly ruthless, more than I had imagined!"

Worley and Norris spoke anxiously, their tones laden with resentment towards Wolf.

And rightfully so, when even outsiders couldn’t bear to watch Wolf’s antics, let alone those who had experienced them first-hand.

Zhou Bai took a look at the two, then shifted his gaze towards Heidi and Alike.

In reality, other than continuing to attack the space magic set by the Magic Array and depleting its magic power, she had no other options.
