Light Fortress-Chapter 1484 - 206: Mortal Flesh (Part 2)

However, once separated from the host,

the anthropomorphic domain needs to consume the "source essence" it carries. When the source essence is exhausted, the domain naturally dissipates.

In other words,

because the source essence is limited, most of them do not have the ability for sustained combat.

At this moment, the [Judge] is still ruthlessly slaughtering the beast spirits that step into the domain, but the Silent Annihilation Domain has instantly shrunk by half and continues to shrink.

The white-robed ghost moves closer to the city, tasked with blocking as much of the beast tide as possible before it completely dissipates! 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢

"The Source Energy Boat will be starting soon—"

Mu Wanqiu, running along the path, doesn’t look back but asks with concern in her heart, "When the time comes, how do you plan to retreat?"

"You just need to start it; I have a way to leave and protect myself!"

Bai Xiu, while controlling the Thunder Marsh, distractedly says, "Don’t forget that there’s still a lot of mountain ash above Sangzhou Cave... The Source Energy Boat will still need my Thunder Realm Walker to guide the way."

With these words, Mu Wanqiu says no more.

...

...

"Board the boat! Board the boat!"

The emergency evacuation mission at Sangzhou Cave is proceeding in a highly tense manner, and the Neutrals are demonstrating very high rescue skills.

All the refugees from various sections of the four caves, as long as they are found and connected, are sent to the rear open space of Zone S12. This temporary shelter becomes the last refuge for the South Cave.

There are thousands of refugees here from both the east and west sides.

After revealing his identity, Red Dragon, along with Gu Shen, chooses to open the city gates... He absolutely cannot expose his status as a member of the Ancient Literature Society.

But this is the greatest kindness he can offer within his authority.

Allowing these civilians to flee for their lives.

Once he returns, he can report to those above him.

After all, with mountain ash rampant, the situation is urgent. Since the Source Tower has found the Lord of Wine, there’s no need to be concerned about these "worthless lives."

Amidst torrential rain, the ten Source Energy Boats quickly complete their loading. The fifteen members of each emergency rescue team do not return to the boat but scatter, because even now, some scattered "refugees" are just arriving at Zone S12. They come from all directions, wanting to seize the last chance for survival.

Unfortunately, fate is cruel.

From the moment Sangzhou Cave was born, it was destined to be engulfed by blood and fire.

There are many sufferers here, many sacrifices...

Even though the North Continent prepared sufficient Source Energy Boats, it cannot ensure that everyone can board.

"Final boarding time, eleven minutes."

In the black water droplets surrounding the fleet, a stern fish face is reflected.

Fisher stares intently at the main control screen, under immense pressure. On one hand, the spiritual domain needs to resist the invasion of "mountain ash," and on the other, he cannot determine the current situation of the beast tide. To prevent the city from being overwhelmed and the Source Energy Boats from not escaping in time, he can only set a "eleven-minute" deadline, unsure if even that might be too much!

"Seven minutes, final boarding time seven minutes—"

A cold voice enters the hearts of every North Continent soldier. Wearing red armor, running in the rain, Mu Wanqiu’s spirit connects to the Living Fish Domain. She completes the interface and provides the latest estimate: "In seven minutes, the Source Energy Boats will take off. The rescue team needs to board a minute early, regardless of your location now. Calculate the return time..."

"What if there are still refugees?"

"...Give up."

Mu Wanqiu takes a deep breath, a touch of sympathy flashing in her eyes, but it’s quickly replaced by determination.

Her voice in the Black Water Domain is resolute: "The fleet will not delay takeoff for any latecomers. Delayed rescue is dragging everyone to hell."

"Number one, received."

"Number two, received!"

"...Number seven, received!"

The ten emergency rescue teams immediately complete their reports. At the same time, a second voice connects to the Black Water Domain.

"If I heard correctly, only seven minutes left, right?"

Mu Wanqiu looks at the curly-haired young man beside her.

Chen Mei exhales deeply, "Given the frontline has already started retreating, keeping the Sincere Heart Association here is meaningless. We can’t be heroes like Bai Xiu, but staying to board the boat with the emergency rescue team isn’t a problem. Saving more people in these final seven minutes is always good."

Mu Wanqiu frowns.

She intended to refuse Chen Mei, telling him to take these Sincere Heart Association members onto the boat... Their recent battle wore them out. Although these Transcendents from Da Du don’t have the same individual strength as legion warriors, there’s a persistent determination in their eyes.

When she locks eyes with Chen Mei, she falls silent.

Soon, the voice of the Living Fish sounds.

"Thank you, Brother Chen... We don’t have much time, only seven minutes left. Teams must quickly connect, don’t delay the opportunity."

The Sincere Heart Association and the emergency rescue team conduct a new round of grouping, taking less than ten seconds. The temporary reception task behind the city spreads, and most of the refugees have already boarded. This is the last wrap-up.

...

...

"Run!"

"Run faster! Even faster!"

The South Cave Steep Mountain is full of shrubs, with two figures "running madly."

An old woman and a young girl.

One with gray hair, looking over sixty, and the other only twelve or thirteen, at the age where life is blooming like a budding flower.

Their steps are arduous.

No matter how hard they try, they cannot run fast. The area is covered with thorns, and their simple robes that barely cover them are already torn.
