Chapter 80: The Fallen Dragon
A sudden feeling of weightlessness.
It fell to the ground from a height of nearly two hundred meters.
The extremely oppressive air tore at the bodies of the two beasts, crushing their minds and forcing them to roar and cry like trapped animals. They fought in the air, their positions sometimes flipping upside down.
But what cannot be changed is that their bodies are constantly falling and are about to hit the cracked ground.
The scarlet dragon was helpless. In a pure contest of strength, it was no match for the giant black ape.
Clearly, its ears were filled with the vibration of helicopter wings and the howling of hurricanes, but what its senses presented to it was a silence like the lightless deep sea.
It was dead silent.
It was as if its eardrums had already been torn apart and completely rotten by the manic air and the monkey's roar. It could not hear any sound, but only welcomed death in paleness.
die.
It seems to be a destined fact.
The red dragon couldn't get rid of the giant ape's restraints at all. The beast seemed determined to die together with it, and was determined to make it crash to the ground and be blasted into mud by the impact.
"I……"
The dragonfly's roar became weaker and weaker. It gave up struggling completely and even its body gradually curled up into a ball. Its wings were almost torn apart by the air.
"real……"
The red dragon's body kept falling towards the ground, its shadow cutting through the sky, through the clouds, through the glass on the edge of the tall building, as if it had cut through everything in the world.
"I don't want to die."
It murmured hoarsely, and its huge body gradually shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye and turned into a human form.
"Will someone come to see me..."
The girl's slender body slipped out of the giant ape's huge palm, and her falling trajectories gradually diverged from those of the giant ape.
“It seems not…”
Her mind was filled with distorted, hideous faces and manic voices.
It was as if the entire sky was reflecting countless human faces, and they were all saying the same words without exception: You are a monster, you are a monster, you are a monster, you are a monster.
"No one will come to see me. Everyone says I am a monster..."
The girl slowly closed her tired eyes, the dusk mist flowing and covering her face.
An indifferent voice echoed in my mind - "If ever you feel like a monster when you are among a crowd, come to Shangshi City to find me."
"Oh, is it too late for me to regret now?"
There were tears in Asuka Uesugi's eyes, but the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, like a bird falling in the autumn.
"New York is too far from Upper Rock City."
"Are you stupid? I can't go at all..."
"But to die like this,
I feel so lonely...
I’m sorry I didn’t keep my promise.”
Her hairpins were ripped open by the air and flew up into the sky, her brown hair drifting in the wind.
"Next time, I'll go to Shangshi City to find you."
Finally, at the moment when Asuka Uesugi closed her eyes completely, she seemed to vaguely see a crow flying along the edge of the Empire State Building.
"You're flying too far, crow, stop right now!"
The boy's low growl suddenly reached the girl's ears.
His voice echoed in the sky, and it didn't sound like it was very far away, so it was not drowned out by the wind, and it reached Asuka Uesugi's ears somewhat vaguely.
Hallucination?
Asuka Uesugi was stunned for a moment.
"I'm sorry, Lu Jun, but we are falling, you should think about how to save her first!"
Another voice was heard, and with the excellent hearing of dragons, Asuka Uesugi also recorded this voice.
"What?"
Asuka Uesugi suddenly opened her eyes.
The figures of two young men were reflected in her dark red dragon pupils.
——Anson Deer's cheeks were deformed by the strong wind. He was holding a fish tank tightly in his hand. The water and fish in the fish tank were scattered into the sky. He looked quite funny.
——Ritsuki Urushihara’s hair was messed up by the wind. Even though he was falling from a high altitude, his expression remained calm and composed, without any panic at all, because he had already prepared a trump card.
Asuka Uesugi was stunned for two full seconds until her eyes began to hurt and she finally reacted.
"An...Anson Deer?!"
"Crybaby Dragon! Don't transform, please don't!"
Anson Deer's eyes were fixed on the fish that escaped from the fish tank, but he was growling at Asuka Uesugi.
The next moment, a system prompt sounded in his ears.
[After 20 seconds of growth, the properties of the floating fish in the tank have changed subtly - Strength: 38→40; Agility: 38→40]
[The floating fish in the tank has grown to its full size, and the floating shark is about to appear. 】
“Bang!!!!”
At this moment, the sound of the fish tank breaking was heard, followed by a deafening roar.
"roar--!!!"
It was a giant black shark with a body length of nearly four meters. Its body was surrounded by gray light, and its exposed fangs were as sharp as steel blades, as if it could bite through a telephone pole with ease.
[Chess name: Floating Crazy Shark]
"Fuck, it finally came out." Anson threw away the empty fish tank and shouted to the shark, "Flying Crazy Shark, carry that idiot on your back!"
The next moment, the newly formed floating shark shot towards Asuka Uesugi from the sky at an unimaginable speed and caught her firmly on its back.
At this time, Anson Lu and Urushihara Ritsu were only 20 meters from the ground. If they fell any further, they would die!
"Lu Jun, there's no time." Urushihara Ritsu grabbed the corner of Anson Lu's clothes.
"Crying Dragon, grab the dorsal fin!" said Anson Deer.
As his roar faded, Urushihara Ritsu and his figure disappeared at the same time, leaving only a crow feather.
Asuka Uesugi was still a little confused. She followed Anson's instructions and tried to reach out and grab the dorsal fin of the floating shark.
But at this moment, all the gravity of her fall was on the shark's back - the shark seemed to be unable to resist, and no matter how hard it tried, it could not resist the trend of falling!
They are only 15 meters from the ground!
At this time, the ground level of the Empire State Building.
A white-haired girl from the other side of the world came rushing towards me on the icy surface.
She raised her clear eyes and looked at Asuka Uesugi who fell down with the shark.
“What a hassle…”
The Icelandic girl said so.
She raised her slender right arm and created layers of ice walls beneath the floating shark.
“Bang!”
The next moment, the floating shark crashed into the deliberately weakened ice wall, breaking countless pieces of ice in succession, and finally managed to stop its body.
At this time, Asuka Uesugi was also holding on to the dorsal fin of the floating crazy shark. She slid down the shark's back in a daze and looked at the expressionless Icelandic girl.
The Icelandic girl tilted her snow-white face to the side and spoke with a completely emotionless voice, almost pausing on each word.
"Tell them that skipping class will result in a serious demerit."
"Huh..." Asuka Uesugi sat on the hot ground and said in a puzzled voice: "Skipping... skipping class will be punished?"
"Well, I can't be the only one to be punished."
Yuri seemed to have no intention of explaining, and his figure suddenly disappeared without a trace - this was the mechanism of the travel scroll, and he could return to the original city at any time within 24 hours.
The next moment, the howling of the crowd came suddenly.
“It…” The woman holding the child was stunned for a moment, then she yelled, “It’s still alive!”
[Purgatory Ape's Sequence Skill 2: Resurrection (When encountering fatal damage, at the cost of permanently reducing its own attributes, it gains a chance to be reborn - HP is 30% of the original) (Cooling time: 24 hours)]
"roar!!!"
In the ten-meter-deep pit, the pitch-black giant ape stood up tremblingly. Its whole body was covered with deep scars, and blood was flowing like a waterfall.
What was not affected was that its eyes were still as furious as an executioner about to start a killing spree.
If we don't stop it here, perhaps the whole of New York will become a river of blood.
It moved its body slowly, staring at the woman holding the child, like a beast thirsty for blood, completely losing its mind.
"You guys will always look at me like this... forever!"
The giant ape showed its trembling fangs and moved out of the deep pit step by step.
"It doesn't matter anymore. I will kill you all, without leaving a single one alive."
"Sacrifice the stone statues of soldiers, knights, and artillery carts..."
At this moment, a young man in school uniform walked over, and the sound that came out of his lips was like the evening bell of a church, resounding in the deep pit at the bottom of the Empire State Building.
"King's statue, use your skill on it - Blue Rainbow King Flash." His dark hair blocked his eyes.
The stone statue standing next to the young man suddenly raised its noble scepter and pointed it at the giant black ape in the deep pit.
In an instant, a dark green beam of light shot out from the top of the scepter, and under the gazes of countless people around the world, the green-rainbow beast shot straight towards the chest of the black giant ape.
“Ahhh——!!” the giant ape roared and blood flowed like a river.
"Use King Guardian to recall the Floating Shark." Anson Lu's voice was icy, not giving the other party a chance to breathe. "Floating Shark, use the skill, Spiral Piercing."
The next moment, the floating shark disappeared from Asuka Uesugi and returned to Anson Deer.
"roar!!!"
At the same time, its whole body began to spin violently, like a gray spiral airplane cloud, rushing towards the giant ape in the pit in an irresistible manner, tearing its head into pieces.
The remaining flesh of the giant ape collapsed, making a loud noise like an earthquake, and then gradually turned into ashes and dissipated.
After a moment, everything was silent.
At this moment, the whole of New York was in a deep silence until the system prompt sounded in their ears.
[A rampaging special sequence player has been killed. In order to reward the player "Anson Deer" for his bravery, a special reward of 3,000 evolution coins has been issued.]
[Obtained the title: City Defense Hero (HP +100, Selected Attribute +1 point)]
