Chapter 1076: Chapter 1046: Collapse on a Rainy Night
"Drip drip~"
In the night, the heavy rain poured down from high above.
In just a moment, the entire center of the Demon Forest was shrouded in a gray curtain of rain.
As the rain fell into the forest, it formed small streams and puddles within the intricate forest.
Watching the rain continuously wash over the dense corpses of demons on the ground, a group of people huddled under an ancient tree, their expressions solemn.
After nightfall, it was already filled with chill, and now with the cold rain, some people with weaker constitutions were already shivering to the side.
Especially the few girls.
Dressed in thin clothes, their faces were gradually turning pale.
Although an Earth Mage had built a mud wall to block the rain, there was no concern of getting soaked.
But it still couldn’t stop the cold wind from invading again and again.
This wall also greatly affected everyone’s field of vision.
At the same time, the coldness in the air, coupled with the exhaustion from previous battles, stimulated everyone’s nerves relentlessly.
Just then, someone said:
"What should we do? At this rate, even if we’re not eaten by demons, we’ll freeze to death here."
Someone complained further:
"Why does it have to rain at a time like this, ahchoo~"
"So cold!"
Suddenly, a cry startled everyone:
"Beiat, what happened to you!"
Lin Yi had just saved a man, who suddenly passed out again.
The woman exclaimed.
Ling Yuwei hurried forward to check.
But soon she breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"It’s nothing."
"He’s just too exhausted and passed out."
The woman heard this, and immediately held him, sobbing:
"I want to go home, boo hoo hoo~"
"I don’t want to be a Saintess anymore; I just want to go home now."
At this moment, the girl’s voice echoed the sentiments of everyone present.
However, this was just the beginning.
Because, in the period that followed, people kept collapsing under the pressure.
Someone finally couldn’t take it anymore and broke down emotionally:
"Just kill me, then."
As this person was about to stab themselves in the chest with a dagger, a hand suddenly grabbed their arm:
"What are you doing?! Are you crazy!"
Sikong Tingzhi furiously addressed everyone:
"Look at yourselves now."
"It’s just a bit of rain, isn’t it?"
"If you can’t even withstand this hardship, do you dare call yourselves geniuses? Hmph~"
Under Sikong Tingzhi’s harsh scolding, everyone’s emotions finally began to calm down.
At the same time, Sikong Tingzhi said:
"Gather the wounded in this dry area."
"The rest should take this opportunity to rest."
"Though the rain washed away the bloody smell here, it will also wash away the original scent of the Red Moon Python."
"We need to prevent other demons from coming and discovering us."
Someone collected some relatively dry wood and piled it in the middle, everyone instinctively looked at Lin Yi.
Upon Lin Yi’s nod, a Fire Element Mage immediately ignited the wood.
As the flames rose, everyone gradually felt a trace of warmth.
While Ling Yuwei was checking the condition of those who had fainted, she suddenly felt warmth on her back.
Ling Yuwei was startled.
When she turned her head, she saw Lin Yi draping a fur-lined robe over her, and she exclaimed:
"Young Master Lin Yi."
The silk dress Ling Yuwei wore earlier had long been disheveled, and with the rain’s assault, it clung to her back, revealing her fair skin.
Seeing this, Lin Yi picked out a [Fur Fire Robe Lv60 Epic] from his bag for her to wear.
At this moment, Lin Yi didn’t even know which demon had dropped this equipment; he just knew that his bag was filled with a dense mass of various equipment.
And the lowest tier was Epic level.
Seeing Lin Yi’s actions, everyone looked on curiously.
But as soon as the robe draped over Ling Yuwei, her face immediately changed dramatically:
"This!"
In shock, her first reaction was to take the exquisite robe off and hand it back to Lin Yi, saying:
"This is too precious; I can’t accept it."
Is there anything in this world that even the young lady of the Linlang Pavilion can’t accept?
Everyone concentrated and, upon seeing the magic fluctuations emitted by the equipment, went speechless:
"Magic Equipment!!"
"And at least above Spiritual Artifact (Tier 4-5) level."
Faced with the robe Ling Yuwei handed back, Lin Yi didn’t even glance at it and said:
"If you don’t want it, just throw it away."
"Hiss~"
Lin Yi’s words once again refreshed everyone’s understanding.
Ling Yuwei instinctively hugged it.
Only Ling Yuwei knew that this robe was actually a Sacred Artifact (Tier 6-7) piece of magic equipment.
Even her Linlang Pavilion couldn’t produce such a valuable item.
Seeing Lin Yi easily give it to her, feeling the warmth the robe provided her, at the same time, her heart, too, felt warmed.
Quickly, under the envious gazes of everyone, Ling Yuwei wore it.
Seeing Ling Yuwei’s curvy body hidden under the robe, some couldn’t help but sigh in their hearts.
At this moment, Lin Yi didn’t care what others were thinking, nor did he intend to take out more clothes for everyone.
Anyway, as far as he was concerned, as long as these people didn’t die, it was fine.
After all, these people all had Tier Six Venerable Level strength, and this level of hardship would, at most, cause some mental and physical suffering.
But it was not fatal.
As long as they rested for a few days after going back, they could still be as lively as ever.
What Lin Yi worried about wasn’t them, but those other groups.
He didn’t know if their situation would be any better.
Lin Yi looked at the pitch-black dense forest outside and suddenly frowned.
He suddenly said to everyone behind him:
"Stay here and go nowhere; I’ll be back soon."
In the moment of everyone’s astonishment, Lin Yi had already disappeared from view.
...
...
"Die!"
Charles looked viciously at the demon before him, placing a hand on its head, a mass of flames instantly rose:
"Explode!"
"Boom~"
The flames directly blew the demon beneath him beyond recognition.
After doing all this, Charles was weakly gasping for air.
He wiped the rain off his face, stood up, and looked around.
Only a dozen or so people around could still barely support themselves without collapsing.
Seeing this scene, Charles looked up and laughed:
"Hehe~ hehehe..."
"Hahaha~~"
"How exhilarating!"
But as soon as he finished speaking, his head tilted, and he fell onto the muddy ground:
"Thud~"
Not far away, the Jialan Crown Prince Gongsun Zhi stood in front of a pile of demon corpses, mumbling to himself with a face full of despair:
"How could this happen? It shouldn’t have been like this!"
"Thud~"
Gongsun Zhi suddenly buckled at the knees, collapsing to the ground.
At the same time on the Rafam Continent, the public screen of all players was flooded with a series of system prompts:
System: "The game will go offline for updates in 60 minutes, please prepare to log out."
System: "The game will go offline for updates in 60 minutes, ..."
System: "..."
