Chapter 1470 Bulwark Umbrella’s Defense (2/2)

The minotaurs were still coming, and they lifted their powerful arms, gearing up for another throw.

Elysian Moon looked pale, and her green clothes were now dyed red. She looked to be in poor condition.

Han Sen decided to run back and force her to take cover underneath his Bulwark Umbrella. And after he got into position, a lot of ding dong noises quickly followed, as the spears washed across his shield like another heavy rainfall.

”Why did you come back?” Elysian Moon clenched her jaw again.

”Save the chit-chat for later.” Han Sen wrapped an arm around her waist and helped her run into the cover of the nearby woodland.

The heavy armor minotaurs weren't giving up the pursuit just yet, however. And when they came stomping through the forest, their heavy armor knocked down any trees that stood in the way of their desperate chase.

”Let me down!” Elysian Moon was being carried beneath Han Sen's armpit, and she shyly pleaded for him to let her go.

”My umbrella is only so big. It can cover two people, but now that we're running, and you're injured, perhaps we should focus on shaking our tail first.” Han Sen did not put her down, and simply kept on running.

Han Sen looked back as the minotaurs bulldozed the forest behind them. Even the trees that were two-people wide were knocked down effortlessly.

Fortunately, savaging the forest had slowed down their advance somewhat. Han Sen, as swift of foot as he was, gained some distance on them.

After running for another hundred miles, the minotaurs were out of sight. Han Sen slowed to a stop by the banks of a river.

Han Sen looked back and made sure he could no longer hear the sounds of footsteps. Then, he said, ”It looks like they're gone.”

”Put me down!” Elysian Moon was still beneath Han Sen's armpit, and her second request was just as shy.

”Oh, sorry!” Han Sen put her down, then saw that she was bleeding. ”Are you okay?”

”I'm okay.” Elysian Moon's body glowed, signifying she was trying to repair her own wounds.

It didn't look to be very effective. Her wounds were still oozing blood, and her face was becoming paler and paler.

”The powers of those minotaurs are strange. It's like they are forbidding me from healing my own injuries.” Elysian Moon confessed after a while. She was in dire shape.

”Really? It's lucky you are a spirit then, since you can respawn,” Han Sen said.

Elysian Moon shook her head. With a wry smile, she said, ”I lied to you. My spirit stone wasn't in the spirit statue. It's inside me. If I die, I can't respawn.”

Han Sen frowned and gave her a look, but did not say anything.

Elysian Moon went on to say, ”The reason I asked you to break the spirit stone in the statue was simply because it belongs to my enemy. I didn't plan to escape. I just wanted him dead.”
