My Stubborn Soul Card Follower-Chapter 491 - 399: The Twilight Bishop’s Treasure Box Is a Miracle!
Of course, the pace also increased significantly.
If it were a Life Card Duel on the Dawn Continent, they’d probably still be setting the stage by now.
Isabella nodded, "But it seems more interesting now."
"That depends on the perspective." Shen Sui laughed, "If you’re on the losing side, it’s not so interesting."
Upon hearing this, Isabella covered her mouth and laughed, "Like your opponents, they surely don’t find your deck amusing."
The name Shen Sui was already well-known among the duelists of the Dawn Continent more than a thousand years ago.
Shen Sui coughed twice, "How can you falsely accuse someone like that?"
"Just watch." The Dueling Device in Shen Sui’s hand trembled slightly, indicating something was happening on Alice’s side. "I’ll check how Alice is doing over there." 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖
Isabella nodded; she had helped Alice purchase supplies and had also assessed the value of the items Alice brought back through her own channels, so Isabella knew Alice had connections with another world.
That world was also very powerful, and the abilities of those Extraordinary Weapons were enough to prove it all.
However, the power systems of the two worlds had some subtle differences. Although not entirely unusable, it caused a slight depreciation in the items Alice brought back.
Alice didn’t care about that at all, because all these Extraordinary Weapons brought back to the Dawn Continent were picked up by her from the ruins left by receding seawater, ownerless and hardly a loss.
[When Alice returned to the world of the Black Sea through her dreams, she found that the refugee team behind her had expanded to nearly a thousand people.]
[It turned out that the Candlelight Illusion she left behind had rescued and taken in another group of refugees fleeing inland from the coast during the daytime.]
[Although the supplies they carried were barely maintainable, continuing to wander like rootless duckweed was not a solution.]
[Alice looked forward, calculating the distance from here to the Leonis family estate.]
[However, before she could plan the route for these over a thousand people, a little boy ran towards her from behind, shouting in fear and despair, "It’s bad! Captain! It’s bad, Captain!"]
[Captain, that was what the refugees called Alice.]
["Seawater! The seawater is surging this way from over there!" The little boy ran to Alice, supporting his knees with both hands, gasping for breath as he spoke.]
[Seawater is the most terrifying name in this world.]
[As soon as the little boy’s words fell, the entire refugee group fell into panic.]
[People couldn’t believe it and even suspected the little boy of playing a prank.]
[Because if it were true, it would mean their doomsday was imminent.]
[Humans, especially ordinary people, cannot outrun the surging seawater.]
[Despair spread among the crowd.]
[Alice was also startled inside, but she immediately forced herself to calm down.]
["You, a few of you, come with me." Alice pointed to a few of the most panicked people, "Let’s go to a nearby high point and check the situation; perhaps it’s not as bad as it seems."]
[Alice’s calmness gave the people a slight sense of peace.]
[In the eyes of the refugees, Alice was like an endless pit, bringing out enough supplies to sustain the whole group.]
[To the refugees, Alice was their savior.]
[Alice led a team to climb a nearby bare hill.]
[Looking into the distance, at the edge of their sight, a dark tide really appeared, surging towards their direction.]
[It’s the Black Tide! It’s really the Black Tide!] Alice’s team members exclaimed in panic.
["What’s the panic?" Alice remained very calm and quietly calculated the distance, saying, "It’s still twenty minutes away; we have time."]
["But Captain! With so little time, what can we do!" one person exclaimed in despair, "The Black Tide is faster than all of us, and nothing but the terrain can stop its advance."]
[Another person gritted his teeth and said to Alice, "Yes! Captain, why don’t you escape! You’re a powerful Earth Knight; you can outrun the Black Tide!"]
[Everyone began urging Alice to escape.]
[Alice looked at these people in front of her.]
[Though they had become refugees, they still retained kindness and gratitude.]
[Alice was unwilling to easily abandon these people she had struggled to protect.]
[In this world, is there truly nothing that can halt the Black Tide from the sea?] Alice murmured to herself.
[Perhaps on the Dawn Continent, there might be something that could obstruct or even manage the Black Tide.]
[But with the Black Tide approaching and the entire group facing destruction, Alice had no time to traverse between worlds to slowly seek a solution.]
[How should she face such a difficult situation?]
[Alice fell into deep thought; she looked up at the distant Black Tide.]
["Captain! Don’t hesitate! Run!" The people by her side continued to urge."]
["You are a great Knight! A noble of Leonis! You shouldn’t die here with us lowly folks!"]
[Their words provoked a rebellion in Alice’s heart: "In my eyes, there is no high or low, only life."]
[Alice continued to think: If only there was something that couldn’t be destroyed, something that couldn’t be bypassed...]
