Chapter 385 - Smash Your Po (1/2)

A long time later, Roland finally came back to himself. He dragged the old man to his feet and said, “I’m here to save you. You will leave with me right now. I can at least keep you two safe.”

After a shock, the old man was both excited and scared. He quickly ran to the boy who just fell and took him back to Roland. In the meantime, he looked around vigilantly, fearing that someone else would hurt him and his grandson.

“Follow me.” Roland examined the surroundings and found a way to the city gate.

He also snapped his fingers to cast Body Fortification, Agility, Endurance, and other buffs on the old man.

Feeling strong and comfortable, the old man trotted after him.

At this point, the boy who was no older than four suddenly cried at the remains of a house on the old man’s shoulder, “I want Mom! I want Mom!”

The old man closed his eyes in pain.

Dazed, Roland searched all the remains with his mental power and found four human-shaped objects in the debris. All of them had been disfigured and emitted no mental waves whatsoever.

Heaving a long sigh, Roland turned around and left.

With the boy who was crying for his mother, the old man timidly followed him.

They came across battling players on their way. If they were too close, Roland simply got rid of them with Ice Ring, Arcane Bullets, or Prismatic Spray.

As for those far away, Roland had no time for them. After all, he had to protect the old man and his grandson.

Collapsed walls were everywhere on the street, adding to the difficulty of the journey.

Since the old man was holding the boy, his pace was quite slow.

From the relatively intact buildings on the two sides of the street, many eyes were watching Roland take the old man and his grandson away through the gaps in their drapes.

But when Roland looked at them, those eyes were immediately hidden in the dark.

“I’m going out of the city. If you want to go out, you can join me. I can keep you safe.”

Roland stopped and shouted with the help of the broadcast spell.

He waited a moment, but received no response.

Nothing but the noises of fighting and screaming could be heard nearby or indistinctly.

Roland sighed and kept walking.

When he approached the city gate, he saw a lot of bodies.

Most of the bodies belonged to players, who hadn’t reclaimed them yet, but some bodies were civilians.

It was quite obvious.

All the players were young people. Even the Warriors had soft, smooth skin although they were tough.

The civilians, in comparison, had rough, dark skin. It was easy to distinguish them.

The old man was even more anxious when he saw the bodies.

The boy was also too scared to cry.

At this point, three players ran out of the city, and Roland subconsciously kept the old man and the boy behind him.

When they saw Roland, they all stopped.

Roland looked at them, only to see that they were old acquaintances.

They were Jason and another two members of Silver Wings, who used to run the docks in Delpon.

Roland said with a smile, “It’s been a while since I saw you. I didn’t know that you were here.”

“Roland, get out of here.” Jason waved at him angrily, “A good dog doesn’t block the way.”

Roland sneered and snapped his fingers, and they all jumped aside in fear.

But actually, Roland didn’t activate any spells.

Then he said to the old man, “You should leave now. There are no dangers outside yet. You can find shelter for yourselves.”

The old man nodded heavily and ran out of the gate.
