Chapter 621 - Unexpected Rescue

Even after Lord Bahlzacs is dead, Duna did not spare his corpse. Just looking at the person's motionless body causes her to frown as she recalls the person's lustful gazes.

With a flick of her other hand, she destroyed the person's lower body with the power of Destruction Law.

Upon seeing this sight as he quietly arrived beside Duna, Leon could not help but flinch slightly as if he was the one getting his balls destroyed by her.

"There's no need to keep attacking. He is already dead," Leon said with a forced smile before lifting her hand and admonishing her, "Look at yourself. You're being overly reliant on the Destruction Law."

"It doesn't really matter. I know you'll still be around to fix right up. Isn't that right?" Duna gave Leon a suggestive look while licking her lips.

Still, Leon smiled wryly in response.

"Don't think that your trick will always work on me. At least, not with your hands looking like this," he pointed at her missing hands.

"What hands?" Duna waved her handless arms playfully in front of Leon.

Leon could not help but shake his head and sighed while transferring some Grandmist Energy to Duna, "My power isn't always readily available. Please stop getting yourself hurt."

"Hm, alright. I'll keep that in mind." Duna stated after a slight paused.

As time slowly passes, more and more carcasses began to drop inside the clan, and the damage in the dome started to spread faster on its own, being unable to support the weight.

"Come, we need to leave. The structural integrity of the dome has already been compromised due to your previous attack."

"Mm." Duna nodded.

At the same time, the clansmen began to speed up their evacuation with fear and alarm despite their feelings of weakness due to the widespread disease.

"Hurry! This place is about to be buried! Move faster! What are you waiting for?!"

"Ahh! Faster, faster! The sky is falling! The rats are raining!"

The clansmen, young and old, all urged the people in front of them to move quicker with impatience.

Thud! Thud!

The rat carcasses dropped like hammers, smashing on top of buildings and roads, even fellow clansmen.

The weak and unfortunate were heavily injured after being struck while the strong sought to protect them.

"Be quicker! This place isn't going to last much longer!" Jorn and Lilith arrived at the exit point and frowned at the long queue of clansmen waiting to get outside.

"Uncle Jorn, the passage is too narrow. If it could be widened, more people would be able to evacuate at once."

"I'll quickly arrange people to the task at once." Jorn nodded.

Shortly after, Jorn hollered for all the Transcendents to gather. Whether they were warriors or aristocrats, all of them had to contribute.

The Transcendents were divided into two groups; one big and one small.

The small group was responsible for increasing the size of the exit passage while the other group protected the clansmen from the falling carcasses and dome fragments, which were made from the bones of beasts.

"Don't think that I have forgotten the matter of the Holy Water Fountain. I will deal with all of you after," Lilith said with her narrowed eyes, gazing at the group of aristocrats who had been with Lord Naargoc.

"Yes, Your Highness…" The aristocrats shivered slightly.

Although the monopoly of Holy Water was Lord Naargoc's idea, they were accomplice for silently agreeing and not persuading Lord Naargoc otherwise.

Shortly after, the group of low-level aristocrats followed the clansmen to evacuate.

"Your Highness, what about Lord Naargoc's son? Do you need me to…" Jorn made a slicing-neck gesture.

However, Lilith furrowed her brows and said, "We'll deal with this matter after getting clansmen to safety outside."

"That being said, I distinguish between punishment and reward fairly. I heard Lord Naargoc's son was the only one who tried to persuade Lord Naargoc?"

"Yes, that seems to have been the case from what I have heard as well," Jorn nodded, recalling some clansmen mentioning about it back then.

"However, we will still need to validate the truth of what happened back then before I pass judgment," Lilith said.

After all, what they heard were only soft discussions in passing. Neither of them had been present to witness the entire event from the start.

"Little Princess, there is no need for you to stay back here where it is dangerous. How about waiting outside where it is safe instead?" Jorn suggested.

Lilith glanced around the crowd for a moment before she replied, "Not yet. Let me wait a bit longer for my friends."

"Fine. But if the situation deteriorates to a dangerous level before they arrive, I will take you outside," Jorn stated.

"That's fine with me." Lilith nodded.

"This seems to be the opposite direction of the exit, no?" Duna casually stated while following Leon's lead.

The exit was still in sight at their previous location. But now? They were getting further and further away. Or rather, they were returning to their original location.

"I need to check something. We can leave after I am done. Or else, you can so leave first, and we will meet up later."

"Hm, Nah. I think I will stick with you." Duna suddenly latched onto Leon's back for a free ride without further extraneous effort on her end.

"The collapse of the dome might be dangerous for those weak Desolate Crow Clansmen, but it poses no danger to us."

"That's true." Leon nodded.

Shortly after, the two returned to the water fountain before Leon's gaze flickered while Duna's brows wrinkled.

"As I thought, there are still people here…" Leon muttered while gazing at the large group of clansmen gathered around the water fountain.

They were scooping out Holy Water into big jugs and emptying out the water fountain.

"What a bunch of idiots. What the hell are they still doing here when the whole place is collapsing?"

"They probably didn't want the remaining Holy Water to go to waste. For them, each scoop of Holy Water is equivalent to a life in this pandemic," Leon casually said.

"This is why they are idiots for risking their lives," Duna stated before saying, "You can simply refine more Holy Water for them, or can you not?"

"I definitely can, but they do not know that. They believe the medicine is precious and thus, believe they are doing a heroic deed by saving the Holy Water," Leon casually stated.

Of course, the sick clansmen could just be procuring the Holy Water for themselves. However, Leon did not think so.

He could overhear them talking.

"Hurry! We are running out of time! The whole place is about to go down! We need to leave now!"

"Just a bit longer! We almost have everything! Each extra drop is extremely precious! There are still many clansmen depending on this medicine to live!"

The clansmen babbled with nervous sweats from pressure and looming threat above them.

Thud! Thud!

Rat carcasses dropped through the dome cracks like rain before they were slapped and kicked away by nearby warriors as they protected the clansmen carrying out their mission.

Suddenly, Leon's ears twitched to a weak cry in the distance before his gaze shifted to an area of broken rumbles.

The spot was unassuming at a glance and appeared as one of many other buildings that had collapsed due to the previous battle.

However, this particular location especially grabbed Leon's attention.

"These rubbles are…" Leon's eyes suddenly flickered in realization before darting over to the rubbles in a quick flash.

Swoosh~!

Leon landed near the ruins of a familiar building before the weak cries became more distinct and clearer. They were the voices of the little boy, Abel, and his mother.

With a wave of his hand, the heavy rubbles of broken stones and hardwood were lifted and removed from the area with Divine Will.

"Are you two alright?" Leon inquired.

"Big brother, you're back! Please save my mother!" Abel strongly requested after his initial burst of excitement.

However, Leon already knew their conditions with divine sense.

Nevertheless, he did a double check on the leg wound of Abel's mother before he shook his head, "It's just a flesh wound. Nothing serious."

"Eh? Is that really true? But there's so much blood…!" Abel stated.

"Truly. But if you are not assured, then you can rub this stuff on your mother's wound. It will heal the wound quickly and stop the bleeding," Leon passed a bottle of Tier-1 Golden Ointment to Abel before saying, "The two of you were very lucky."

"En. Thank you, doctor. You saved us again." Abel's mother bowed her head slightly before urging her son, "Hurry up and thank the doctor."

"Ah! Yes, mother!" Abel exclaimed before bobbing his head cutely, "Thank you, big brother!"

"Call him doctor!" Abel's mother tried to get her son to address their savior respectfully.

"Thank you, big brother doctor!"

"…"

Abel's mother did not know whether to laugh or cry before she ruffled his hair with a wry smile, "You little rascal… What should I do with you?"

"It's fine. He can call me whatever he wants. More importantly, you two need to get out of here quickly. The dome is about to collapse," Leon reminded.

"Right… We will leave as soon as possible." Abel's mother nodded solemnly before adding, "Once again, thank you, doctor!"

"Don't worry about it. Your situation was partially mine to blame."

"I see… Even so, thank you!"

Shortly after Abel treated his mother with Leon's Tier-1 Golden Ointment and witnessed its effectiveness, the two quickly left.

At the water fountain's location, the clansmen were still present when Leon returned to the area with Duna.

"All of you should leave quickly as well if you don't want to die!" Leon hollered with a frown.
