Chapter 43: CH 43

This time, the escape was more dangerous than the last one. Because the passage was spacious enough, the skeleton dragon chased into the cave passage with amazing speed. Its body composed of white bones was as huge as a mountain, and every step brought the tremor of the ground. Fortunately, the intensity of the sound flame seemed to have not recovered. It had not spewed out the horrible death dragon breath temporarily. Otherwise, they two would die here immediately.  

Qi Leren ran while being pulled by the goddess. Several times, he felt that he was running so fast that his legs had already been lifted out of the air. Before he remembered to land, he had been dragged out several meters away. But even they were running at this kind of non-human speed, the skeleton dragon was still chasing closer and closer.  

“Let’s run separately!” Cried Qi Leren, panting.  

Goddess didn’t respond. She took his hand and ran across a fork in the road. They two had already escaped into the most complex passages in the cave maze. Several criss-cross shaped passages were overlapped and zigzagged. If they went straight to the exit, they would be seen at a glance. Therefore, they two simply circled in the maze passage and briefly shook off the skeleton dragon to get a little breathing.  

“I mean it, I know how to revive…” Qi Leren said as he lowered his voice and coughed. He had ran so fast that his lungs were dry and his breath was painful. Dare not cough loudly, he was so suffocated that his eyes were red. He said, “Cough… Later, I’ll run to the Underground Lake to lead him away. You can go out later and jump into the lake and flee with the undercurrent, or you can just go another way and hide deeper. This summoning magic can’t be permanent. You can go back to untie the seal of Cave Tower when you are safe. Anna’s body is still on it. This was the best way to make both of us live. If we escape like this, we will be caught up sooner or later. Then there will be only a dead end! ”  

The cold blue eyes fixed on him, and then she shook her head firmly.  

“No, listen to me!” Qi Leren took her arms and said confidently, “When you saved me outside the cave, you should have seen my skill. Now the skill has finished its cooltime, so I can use it to escape.” You have saved me several times. This time it’s my turn to help you… ”  

The heavy footsteps of skeleton dragon had come from the side passage. Qi Leren didn’t know how but had summoned up the courage. He tried to show a bright smile to goddess and said, “Anyway, thank you. After this, tell me your name!”  

With these words, he rushed to the direction where the skeleton dragon was about to appear, and ran to the coming death without turning back.  

The skeleton dragon was attracted by him the little bug that appeared suddenly. It roared and chased after him. Qi Leren kept running to the direction of Underground Lake and rushed out of the passage.  

Nothing else was In front of him. The Underground Lake was just tens of meters away. As long as he had another ten seconds, he could jump into the lake. But the blue light behind him suddenly became dazzling, and the rolling blue flame poured down from the top of his head like blue magma.  

Archive, archive now! Right away!  

Almost at the last minute of the archive, he was engulfed in a sea of soul flame and his fragile body was instantly destroyed.  

This time, the death was too long. Until the loading time, Qi Leren was still in the blue sea of fire. The cold soul flame was like a frozen hell. Before he realized anything, he had died again.  

It wasn’t until the second loading that the flame went out, but there was scorched earth all around. Qi Leren had lost his mind for a second before he rushed straight to Underground Lake.  

Obviously, skeleton dragon didn’t understand why the little bug survived the dragon breath. It hesitated for a moment, then rushed to him. The hesitation gave Qi Leren a chance to escape, and he plunged into the water.  

The icy water passed over his head. Finally the skeleton dragon did not catch up with him, but wandered on the shore. Qi Leren held his breath and sank. Until now, the pain of being burned to death caused by the dragon breath slowly returned to his consciousness. The sequelae of continuous loading also emerged. He felt limb weakness and mental fatigue. He even dare not recall the pain of death. The huge pain from skin to internal organs while being swallowed by dragon breath was more terrible than any death. At that moment, he almost doubted that his soul was destroyed by the cold but burning fire.  

It was terrible. He was not sure whether he could summon up the courage to fight again.  

Goddess should be all right. Qi Leren thought in the bottom of the water. The oxygen in his lungs was almost exhausted. He floated up slowly and wanted to take a breath.  

The world overhead seemed strange in the dim light. Just as he crept to the surface of the water and took a deep breath to continue to sink down, his eyes were fixed on the rock wall in the distance, staring at the goddess who appeared there when he didn’t notice.  

In a cave above the cliff, goddess was aiming her long bow and arrow at the skeleton dragon lying beside the Underground Lake. Behind her, the phantom of a huge six winged angel emerged. The golden halo covered her figure, making her whole body flow with holy light.

The sound came from the broken air, and the arrow with dark golden streamer drew a bright arc in the darkness. The skeleton dragon seemed to notice it and raised its head slightly, but the arrow had already hit the burning soul flame in its abdomen.  

The blue flame was instantly frozen away. A layer of frost gas wrapped it with visible speed. Taking the skeleton dragon as the center, the frost spread rapidly on the ground. Even the Underground Lake also experienced a sudden temperature drop, floating a thin layer of cold ice.  

The frost flowers in the sky burst, turning the huge skeleton dragon into countless white bones covered with ice and breaking the ground.  

It was so dark and far away, but Qi Leren’s vision collided with the person on the cliff. He was too cold to speak, but he tried to show a stiff smile. Next second, goddess and the phantom of blazing angel disappeared together in a cave on the cliff. Qi Leren couldn’t help but feel lost.  

It was probably too cold in the Underground Lake, which floated up the broken ice. He tried several times but failed to climb up the bank. His body was frozen stiff. His hand scratched a blood trail on the ground, which was covered with ice and gravel, but he didn’t feel any pain because of the cold.  

But if he stayed like this, he would freeze to death sooner or later. He must go ashore.  

So Qi Leren breathed out on his hand, rubbed the bruised palm, propped up his weak body and went ashore. But when he lifted his foot, he lost balance. He failed to stand on the ground and e fell back into the water.  

After the arrow that killed the skeleton dragon, the temperature around suddenly dropped. Even the water temperature of Underground Lake was close to zero. Qi Leren was so cold that he was unconscious. He drifted in the water in a trance. His frozen brain was unable to think about where he was.  

Could he go home if he died?  

Once again, the long suppressed question came to his mind, making him want to escape from all the terrible things here and return to the real world.  

Maybe if he died, he could go back…  

There came a dull sound into the water. Qi Leren tried to open his tired eyes. In the dim light, he saw someone swimming towards him. It was still that beautiful face, but with obvious worry and anxiety on the once cold face. Qi Leren smiled at her and wanted to tell her that he was OK.  

He was very happy to have helped her, if only a little. Even if he knew that she was much more powerful than himself, but he still wanted to protect her. The mood would never change due to their physical strength.  

If you liked a person, you would become brave.  

Back on the shore, Qi Leren slumped on the ground, coughing and shivering. Unconsciously, he had drunk a lot of ice water which full-illed his stomach and made him cold all over. Goddess, who saved him, still pulled his wrist and his hand to check his wound, which had been soaked into white in the water. The wound, scratched by the sand on the ground when he struggled to land, spread from the fingertip to the palm.  

“It doesn’t hurt, really… Cough… ” Qi Leren said with a shudder. As a cold wind poured into his lungs, he coughed heavily,which in turn injected energy into his tired body after repeatedly loading the archives. He felt as if he had really come back from the cold bottom of the water.  

He wanted to applaud the brilliant shot of the goddess, but was suddenly hugged.  

Goddess’s clothes were also cold and wet, but her skin was warm. She knelt on the ground and hugged him tightly.  

This hug was so powerful that Qi Leren, who had few physical contact with people, had realized for the first time that it felt so good to be hugged by people he liked.  

Suddenly, he felt like he had the whole world.
