Sky-cracking Rider

Chapter 488 Section 484 - Dead or Not Dead

Big Yellow Apu was shimmering with electric light, grasping the metal handle handed over by Chen Fei.

The people around immediately stepped back a few steps, keeping a respectful distance.

The Thunder series fighting spirit transformed into a strong current, which was first converted into higher level Crystal Energy, flowing into the open dome and the Crystalline Block, on one hand continuing to drive the Magic Array, and on the other hand charging the Crystalline Block.

Although Apu's output power was not even comparable to Chen Fei's own generation of electricity, at this crucial moment, having any power was better than none, and every watt of power was a vital resource for survival.

Just then, everyone's phone rang.

They had received a mass emergency shelter text message.

"What?"

After a glance at the screens of their phones, more than one person exclaimed in shock.

Had the situation within Hablav City become this dire?

Suddenly, Little Bird looked up, gathering points of light, displaying the image of the sky.

The rarely seen "Light Mirror Spell" had been successfully cast.

It was like the end of the world, with countless red and blue fireballs falling from the dark sky.

The perspective switched, and a blue and white fireball was powerfully hurtling towards a silver white circular hut on the ground.

Which familiar half-spherical hut could it be?

It was indeed where everyone was hiding, surrounded by towering Ice Walls, shielding them against intense heat radiation.

"Oh! That, that one! It's about to fall!"

The previously helpful Wind Ability User pointed to the image projected by the "Light Mirror Spell," his mouth wide open and his face filled with horror.

No wonder they had received a mass emergency shelter text message; with these crazed fireballs raining down, how could they possibly withstand it.

"Run!"

Someone shouted, wanting to rush to a nearby shelter.

But they were immediately stopped from this unwise act.

"Where can you run to? There's no escaping now!"

A red and blue fireball crashed to the ground, its eerie dual-colored flames devouring a hundred-meter radius, no structure could withstand it. It shattered everything on contact, and even if one fireball could be dodged, the next probably couldn't.

With so many red and blue fireballs densely falling from the sky, magma and toxic smoke pervading the surroundings, where could they possibly flee to in such a hurried situation?

Even seeking refuge in shelters was already too late!

"We have to fight for our lives!"

Susanna, a B-grade Ice Ability User who had failed to escape earlier, had gone even paler, not from cold this time, but from fright.

Fortunately, the temperature was quite high at the moment, probably around forty or fifty degrees, allowing her ability to operate at one hundred percent power.

Adrian, who could offer no help, could only comfort her, "Susanna, don't overexert yourself!"

Behind his words lay a resignation to fate.

He knew Susanna's Superpower Level, which couldn't be regarded the same as the B-level displayed by Chen Fei. It was a weakened B-level, barely stronger than a C-level, and perhaps a C-level Ice Ability User wouldn't freeze half to death activating her ability as she did.

The unkept remnants of the Ice and Snow Palace evaporated swiftly, disappearing, and simultaneously took away a large wave of heat.

"Xiao Jiu, use 'Light of Redemption'!"

Chen Fei quickly asked the little bird on his shoulder for help, as it was time for Team 04's Band-Aid to showcase its specialty.

Susanna exerted her Ice Attribute Special Ability to its fullest, but even wearing a down coat couldn't block the chill emanating from the power.

Xiao Jiu, taking advantage of the remaining cool air, rushed over and snuggled up, then a "Light of Redemption" plunged into Susanna's chest, engulfing her in a faint white light.

The effect of "Light of Redemption" was much stronger than that of "Light Healing Technique," which was akin to a real Band-Aid.

"Ha!"

Susanna sharply inhaled, then started coughing violently; with each cough, a puff of cold mist was expelled. This dire use of her last-resort ability almost froze her lungs solid.

The Second Rank "Light of Redemption" finally pulled her back from the brink of unconsciousness.

After regaining consciousness, she coughed a few more times before starting to breathe deeply, trying to inhale every bit of warmth in the air into her body.

"Chirp!"

The little bird repositioned itself on the high point over Susanna's head, seamlessly settling down to nest, relishing in the coolness from her body; the surrounding area was too hot, hot enough to almost curl its feathers.

The disappeared "Light Mirror Spell" reappeared, allowing everyone to see the sky's condition again.

The huge red-blue fireballs had dispersed, but the flames had not vanished; instead, they were scattered by the impact force of the 152 Demolition Bombs, no longer smashing directly onto the full metal dome, but transforming into a rain of fire that covered a radius of one kilometer.

Just the remnants alone almost caused the collective defense to collapse.

The battery icon in the upper right corner of the view showed the number 45.

Chen Fei's expression turned sour.

Although the rock-soil carapace and the Ice and Snow Palace absorbed some of the impact, the full metal dome's surface's Magic Arrays were still bearing the brunt of it.

The price paid was that the already insufficient energy reserves were quickly depleted.

If another strike came...

"I can't do this anymore!"

Apu, who had been continuously exerting his maximal Battle Qi, had turned completely pale, becoming Big Yellow.

"If you're a man, you can't say you can't handle it!"

Chen Fei then shoved the thick copper rod back into his hands.

He could only continue to push this unfortunate soul.

Keep pushing, Lao Hei!

Another person, also drafted at the scene as a Thunder Series Ability User, simply looked resigned to his fate.

Suddenly, a pillar of light descended from the sky, landing outside the city, followed by slender light beams that also fell, precisely hitting each red-blue fireball, immediately causing fireworks to bloom in the air.

"What's going on?" Your adventure continues at My Virtual Library Empire

Everyone watching the "Light Mirror Spell" screen exclaimed in surprise.

If not mistaken, it must be reinforcing forces arriving.
