The Soul System in the Apocalypse-Chapter 486: Strange Movements
Chapter 486: Strange Movements
But even then, despite her heart beating erratically, she still went ahead together with the group, and entered into the territory.
The moment that they stepped inside the territory, they did not spot anybody at all. Additionally, they realized that everything seemed to be okay, but even then, the presence of the humans in this territory was the only thing that was missing.
Looking around for clues, Olivia suddenly realized that it seemed that everybody had moved away so hastily that they did not even arrange things properly. She could see that there was a stove that was still on, with water boiling. It was clear that everything had changed not long ago.
She immediately concentrated, and tried to perceive any aura within the territory, but no matter how much she tried, she could not sense anybody. For that reason, she could not help but get a little anxious.
She was not the only one who was anxious considering that both Sarah and Angela felt the same. Both of them possess a good relationship with Olivia’s family. So of course, they were worried for Olivia’s family as well.
At this moment, they hoped that something like what had happened to their own family did not happen to Olivia’s family. Olivia’s family was their only family right now, other than the family that they had created in the group that had been made by Henry.
Olivia suppressed everything that she was feeling in her heart, and she did not show any emotion on her face. Instead, she continued moving within the territory. Of course, she was not familiar with this territory considering that many things had changed ever since the time that they had been here.
During the time that she was in this city, although Nancy had already taken over the other territories, they had not been integrated. And right now, there was only a single territory, and everything had changed completely.
Additionally, with the expanding of the world, it was clear that the previous territory walls would have already been destroyed. That clearly indicated that the current territory wall had just been recently built.
As they continued moving deeper into the forest, Olivia and the rest of the group began getting restless. But thinking about the power level that they possessed, they continued moving on, believing that they would definitely be capable of handling any problem that appeared.
After about more than 10 minutes, they did not spot anybody at all. Since they were moving on foot, it was clear that they could not cover the huge distance of the territory in a short time.
Additionally, they were moving around slowly, considering that something unexpected might happen. And for that reason, they had to be extremely cautious, to avoid being caught completely off-guard.
The group moved around for more than 30 minutes before they finally arrived in an area where everything looked completely out of place. The reason behind that was the fact that this area, everything was completely disorganized, as if people had been moving around this place so rapidly that they had destroyed things along the path.
Of course, she could see that it seemed that they had been trying to hide all the traces of their movements, but even then, that was not something that they could complete, perhaps due to the hurry that they were in.
But there was something that made Olivia frown. The reason behind that was simply because she was wondering what it was that made the people of this territory to move so hastily. Could it be that they were going to be attacked?
But if that was the case, why was it that there were no members of the other races out of the territory? Had it been that this territory was going to be attacked, the members of the other races would have already charged in here, and destroyed everything here.
But looking at everything around them, it was clear that everything was in its pristine condition, apart from those that had been knocked down during the time that the people were moving around.
Olivia continue to move forward, but just after taking a few steps, she suddenly stopped. Sarah also did the same thing a little after Olivia stopped. Angela and the others were a little confused the moment that they realized that Olivia had suddenly stopped.
Looking in front of them, there was actually nothing other than the empty street that was currently in a mess. But other than that, they could not see anything unusual.
Currently, vehicles were currently scattered all over the street. It was clear that those that were driving the vehicles previously had received urgent information and decided to leave the vehicles on the road.
Angela was also a little bit puzzled about the reason why both Olivia and Sarah were standing there, and she was just about to ask when she suddenly realized something as well.
With the power level that she possessed, it was clear that she had good perception. So, the moment that she concentrated just a little, she realized that there was something a little unusual about the area in front of them.
After a moment of hesitation, Olivia finally took a step forward. The moment that she took that single step, an arrow suddenly shot towards her.
It might be true that Olivia possessed the ice element affinity, but even then, that did not imply that she was an ordinary mage. Instead, she was a combat mage, possessing the ability to fight in close quarters.
The moment that the arrow was approaching, almost piercing through her brows, she raised her hand at an incredible speed, and immediately grabbed the arrow.
The arrow that possessed extreme momentum was immediately stopped at that moment, only a few inches from touching Olivia’s face.
In normal situations, if Olivia was attacked like this, she would definitely react explosively. But this time, there was not even a hint of anger in her eyes at all. Instead, she simply smiled, before she dropped the arrow that she had just caught in her hand onto the ground.
Clang!
The metallic sound of the arrow colliding with the road surface rang into the air. At that moment, the atmosphere suddenly tensed a little. And at this moment, the rest of the group actually immediately felt a hint of killing intent that was coming from the area in front of them.
Despite the fact that they could not see anything, considering that they could only see an empty street, but that arrow had not appeared out of nowhere. It definitely appeared in front of them, from the empty street in front of them. But how was that even possible for it to be able to just appear magically there?
Unless that arrow possessed the ability like the one that their leader possessed, it was definitely impossible for it to appear just like that. They immediately understood that there was definitely something wrong with this street.
Olivia did not stop at all, and just continued moving forward. Then in the next moment, in front of the widened gazes of the group, she actually disappeared in front of their vision.
Just as they were wondering what had happened, Sarah and Angela both moved forward, and just like Olivia, they both disappeared. The rest of the group did not delay that much longer despite being a little confused, and followed.
The moment that they arrived in the same place where both the three ladies had disappeared at, they suddenly felt that they were going through something like a small bubble film.
Then the moment that they went through that bubble film, they realized that the world that appeared in front of them was completely different from what they had been seeing.
In front of them was an extremely wide space, occupying several kilometers of an area. At the very center of that wide space, there was a huge building that stood out among the small buildings that surrounded it.
And occupying that open space, was a group of humans. It was not just a single or two of them, but instead, hundreds of thousands of them. They could not help but be a little surprised.
But they were not given that much chance of getting much surprised about what was happening, considering that at that moment, several attacks were immediately rained towards them.
The attacks contained both physical and magical, indicating that both warriors and mages were attacking them at the same time. Due to many of them attacking at the same time, despite the fact that they were not that much strong, the power that was contained in those attacks was extremely powerful, and any ordinary person within the diamond rank would definitely be easily defeated.
But in the face of those attacks, Sarah suddenly raised her hand. Then in the next moments, a white light suddenly erupted from her hand, and formed a thin barrier in front of them.
Boom! Booom!
In the next moment, all the attacks collided with that thin barrier that had been erected in front of the group. But despite how ferocious the attacks were, they did not manage to cause any damage to that barrier at all.
The moment that they witnessed this, the members of the territory that had already congregated in the open space, and had already been attacking, could not help but have their pupils contract due to this scene.
They had already been preparing to attack, and for that reason, they had launched the strongest attacks that they could. But they had not expected that despite the large number of people that had attacked at the same time, they were actually not capable of doing any much damage to that thin barrier that had suddenly appeared in front of that group.
But even then, the group was not willing to stop attacking. They immediately prepared to launch another round of attacks towards the barrier, believing that they would be able to break it. But it was at that time that suddenly, a feminine voice echoed from behind them.
