Chapter 478: A Nestful (2/2)

The weather after the disaster was unusual. Perhaps there was too much dust in the air as well as clouds in the sky that caused the water to condense more frequently. Within a couple of minutes into his search, the visibility dropped and soon, the space before him was as black as coal. A soft breeze blew in the air at first but soon it became a strong wind and within seconds, there was an ice storm. Filthy hail stones rained down like meteorites. The hail stones ranged from being as big as a football to more than half a meter in diameter. If people were to be hit by it, they could be hurt badly or killed.

Luo Yuan had to use his prediction ability to avoid the bigger hail stones. Of course, his defense allowed him to remain unharmed even if a metal boulder were to hit him but as he was flying using his Will which meant that he was not as fast as usual. However, due to the low maneuverability and the density of the hailstones, he was hit three times in the span of 10 minutes.

His fusion body made him impulsive. He lost his temper when a hailstone hit him again. He stared at the sky and allowed the hailstones to rain down upon him.

Sensing that the storm would not stop anytime soon, he decided to fly into the cloud and attempt at getting rid of the dark clouds.

Just before he started to fly, he suddenly sensed a weak soul. He put his anger aside, closed his eyes and used his Sense in that direction. It was not an illusion. The soul was weak. If not for the hailstones that forced him to fly at a low altitude, he would have missed it.

From the where he was, it seemed to be underground and it was not moving.

He was happy. Without hesitation, he gathered his Will and started flying in a space-time bubble. The space around him morphed into a bubble and soon, his body sank underground.

He went underground through the ice layer. It was dark in there as no light was shining through. Besides the black hole, there was nothing else that was darker than this.

Fortunately, his four-dimensional vision did not rely on light, so even under such conditions, his vision was not affected at all.

It was just 30 kilometers from the hole in New Capital City. It was all made of a glass-like substance that solidified, molded by the lava around it. He dipped a few hundred meters deeper and there he found normal rock formations. He accelerated and sank 1,000 meters below the ground. He could feel the feeling intensify, but the clones were much deeper than where he was. He wondered how the clones got so deep underground in the first place.

”Could it be lost and couldn’t find its way up?” He thought, but that was ridiculous.

”That’s possible. From the day they were born, they should now be one-year-olds. What a nuisance to have to find a toddler that made me sink so deep from the ground,” Luo Yuan thought.

He had limited interactions with the little girl so he did not know much about the clones.

Back in the reconstruction area, he treated the clones like geniuses. They were never ordinary children to him.

As he was closer to the soul's location, he felt something strange. There was more than one. There were a few of them.

Luo Yuan did not only find one, but he had found a nestful of them!
