Chapter 114 Dancers on the Collapsed Stage
Chapter 114 Dancers on the Collapsed Stage
As night falls and lights come on, people leave the underground and return to the neighborhood. The roof beams are put back up to begin rebuilding the roof, and people and a pack of wolves spend the night together in this damaged environment.
Most of the winged horses have flown away and returned to their herd, while a small number of the seriously injured have been left behind for treatment and will be looked after by the Mage Guild tonight.
Ajiu and Zhaoyu comforted the frightened winged horses, telling them not to be afraid of the knight wolves, for they were warriors fighting for the people, and not to be afraid of the night, for they were united as one.
Some conveyed a sense of peace, while others were filled with irritability and resentment...
"Where did that coward Luo Yi go? He wasn't seen at all during the riots in the whole neighborhood! What kind of person is that?"
Sean still hasn't seen Luo Yi, nor did he offer any help when everyone needed it most. He spoke so eloquently before, but in the end, he showed the shameful behavior of a deserter.
"Alright, Sean, we can ask Luo Yi about it when we see him again. Let's not ruin things now."
"Don't always speak well of others, Yaohui. Who knows what Luo Yi is really thinking? What if he runs away when we actually fight the otherworldly monsters next time? Wouldn't we be the ones who get tricked?"
"That's enough, Sean. We can discuss this together..."
“You don’t need to persuade him, my hero. Let Sean continue. I’d like to hear how much eloquence someone who speaks ill of others behind their backs can spew.”
Luo Yi's sudden appearance from the rooftop interrupted Sean and Yao Hui's conversation. Seeing that Luo Yi, who had run away halfway, still acted as if it were none of his business, Sean was furious and wanted to go forward to argue, but Ajiu grabbed Sean and stopped him from acting impulsively.
"Where have you been, Luo Yi? Why weren't you there when the neighborhood was attacked?"
Zhao Yu spoke first to inquire about Luo Yi's specific situation, lest Sean start the conversation and cause the situation to spiral out of control.
"Ah, that thing, I've been keeping an eye on her ever since I discovered those two black and white monsters were creation beasts. I know that for creation beasts to act in an orderly manner, their creators must be nearby to give commands. So I tried to look for them, and that's how I found her..."
Luo Yi stepped from the rooftop onto the shadowy ground, raised his hand and drew a circle of shadows, revealing the scene he had just recorded.
"Who are you? You don't look like someone from Wolf Wilds State, and you don't seem to be a creature from this world either."
Luo Yi's hands emitted dark fluctuations as he approached the strange man before him and asked a question. In order to be on guard and to strike first, Luo Yi was prepared to summon the Ice Fang Crocodile to freeze the entire mountain.
On a rocky platform atop a mountain, a strange woman stands overlooking the entire neighborhood. In the distance, the Wolf Knights stop the charging Triangular Boar, the Golden Eagle Demon takes flight and flies away, and Zeta transforms to approach the trapped giant Pegasus.
"So he's the Ultraman who was summoned? I thought it was someone else. Turns out he's just a greenhorn."
She stepped into soft white low-heeled boots, her black stockings were gleaming and shapely, her blue-black pleated skirt was layered and loosely fitted to support her hips, her bright white inner shirt was worn close to her body, and her light pink shawl fluttered in the wind, her long hair flowing gracefully.
"Are you the one who caused such a ruckus in Tsuchiya? I've heard about you and I'm very curious about your abilities. Logically speaking, it's impossible for a human to have the ability to completely control a monster unless he has some connection with Reonicus."
As the stranger spoke, her gaze drifted slightly toward Luo Yi before returning to the front, watching the winged horses press forward across the street. Her expression gradually became one of pleasure as she savored the intense shouts of the masses.
"Those black and white monsters were created by you, weren't they! What exactly is your purpose in launching these attacks and causing chaos?!"
Luo Yi didn't care at all about the woman's appearance or background. The strong energy fluctuation he had just experienced came from this woman, and it was under this energy that the Golden Eagle Demon controlled the Winged Pegasus to attack the street.
"This is the feeling, this is the joy! Cry out, suffer! I will taste your tears, I will listen to your screams, a dance is a hymn to life!"
Ignoring Luo Yi's doubts, the strange woman spun around in place; amidst the riot of beasts in the background, she took elegant steps.
With each raise of her hand and turn, a monster roars; as she dances, buildings crumble; she dances with her cloak alongside violence, sending her skirt and debris flying...
The beauty of life makes one want to dance!
Unable to understand, unable to agree, unable to recognize, Luo felt a chill run down his spine as the strange person in front of him moved. He dared not attack her, fearing that she might turn into a disaster in the next second.
Who exactly is she, and why does she find pleasure in suffering? What is her purpose, and why does rioting and destruction stir her emotions?
Is she human, monster, or disaster itself?
An interlude disrupts the strange man's dance steps, a giant flower blooms brightly in the street, and a sense of self-sacrifice blossoms in an instant, attracting all the rage to focus on him alone, using kindness, perseverance and courage to embrace all the pain that he cannot help but feel.
"This is... Zhao Yu's telepathy? What is she trying to do? Is she out of her mind?!"
Luo Yi watched as all the black and white-faced beasts rushed towards Zhao Yu, and his heart tightened. The strange celestial horses coming from all directions completely surrounded Zhao Yu. Even if Luo Yi wanted to save her, he couldn't imagine any possibility of saving her.
A dark golden light surged forth against the heavens, enveloping all the winged pegasus that approached Zhao Yu and purifying and releasing them from control. They landed and no longer displayed violent emotions. Zhao Yu had miraculously survived.
"Wow—the magic and miracle of life are truly intoxicating! Pushing one's body and mind to the limit, entrusting one's life to so-called trust? It's both funny and wonderful! Her name is Zhao Yu, right? I'll remember her."
After witnessing Zhao Yu's performance, the strange man's mood changed. He was no longer fixated on the monster's disturbance but had a new idea. He licked his lips as if savoring something and stared at her as if admiring her.
"Your name is Luo Yi, right? Your courage today is commendable, but let me give you a heads-up: with your abilities, you'd better not be arrogant. I still admire you quite a bit, at least for now I won't get rid of you because you're in my way, hahaha."
The strange woman turned and left, disappearing without a trace. The black and white beasts in the distance were attacked and fell into a disadvantageous position. The amethyst knight wolf and the demon deer took advantage of this to pursue them.
……
"This is an unbelievable ability. Is she the otherworldly monster we've been looking for?"
The captain didn't quite understand the strange person's behavior, but since her face had been revealed, they could start the search. It was better to take action first than to wait for her to cause trouble.
"I'll arrange for someone to find that person right away. This matter must be handled with caution."
The captain immediately focused on handling the matter, but the rest of the people were uneasy. The black and white beasts were already difficult to deal with, but what kind of power did the beings that created them possess?
"Seeing is not necessarily believing, and thinking is not necessarily true. Before truly understanding someone, please don't make hasty judgments just for the sake of speaking, okay?"
After Luo finished speaking, he deliberately glanced at Sean, using him as a negative example to remind everyone.
