Chapter 187 - The Footsteps From The Sky (2/2)
At that moment, someone shouted, “The mutant is coming out of an underground cave! Quickly, block the entrance!”
The commander of the city guard immediately gave the order. “Hurry up and go to the mining area. Bring the ores over and cover the cave!”
The city guards immediately started moving, but a few creatures were still wreaking havoc. At that moment, someone on the floating cruiser shouted, “A few Rare-ranked creatures are nothing to worry about. Let me deal with them!”
That person had a head of fiery red hair. His palm started to turn red and hot. In the end, it became like a soldering iron. He aimed at a Rare-ranked creature and jumped down from the cruiser. Before he landed, a huge flame appeared under his feet.
“Have you heard of the Descending Foot Technique? If you haven’t heard of it, I’ll show it to you.”
The fire-type mutant was very arrogant. However, before he landed on the ground, he was whipped by a huge mutant’s tail. Fortunately, the mutant immediately formed a flame armor around his body and used it to neutralize most of the impact. However, he was still sent flying by the tail hundreds of meters away before crashing into the armored wall.
“Cough!” The fire-type mutant coughed out a mouthful of blood, but his fighting spirit was stronger. He said, “That’s right, you’re a good opponent. I can use you to temper myself!”
The mutant stared at him and took a step toward the fire-type mutant. It ignored the others and ran away.
Everyone was speechless.
Wasn’t it supposed to train its body with a foreign body?
The fire-type mutant was still bragging. “If you can’t even catch up to me, how are you going to fight me?”
A long time ago, a famous long-distance runner in Xianxia novels had said, “No matter how high your realm is and how strong you are, it doesn’t matter. You can’t catch up to me anyway!”
The fire-type mutant knew that he could not do anything to him as long as he ran away quickly.
At that moment, someone shouted, “Look, they did not kill the humans directly. Instead, they moved the people who fainted into the cave. Are they really mutants? Are they using humans to incubate mutants?”
The fire-type mutant attracted a huge mutant, but there were still two other mutants wreaking havoc. The humans, who were in great pain, cursed. “Where did that mutant go? Where are the special forces in Area B? Why didn’t they appear?”
Someone else also cursed. “They usually live in prosperous and luxurious Area B. However, they hole up in Area B whenever they encounter a calamity.”
Someone shouted, “Let’s leave the Soaring Cloud City quickly! We’ll fall into a trap!”
The commander had no choice but to reveal the truth. He shouted, “Other than Area C7, the other areas have also been attacked! There are already too many mutants. Plus, a large group of giant ants has surrounded the Soaring Cloud City. Going out would be suicide! The headquarters have already ordered us to open the gate leading to Area B. Everyone, please pass through the gate and head to Area B to escape!”
More mutants and special forces soldiers were sent to defend the armored walls. If the walls were broken, everything would be over.
It was only then that people understood that leaving this place was a dead end. They all squeezed themselves toward the walls of Area B. However, two creatures were already charging over.
At that moment, a young man around 25 years old and an old man walked out of the crowd. The two of them walked forward gradually and the young man said slowly, “Senior Brother, it seems like it’s time for us to fight.”
