Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Inside the house, the Lin Sisters could recognize the heavy breathing outside the door. However, Lin Zhenxing had used up all of her energy. Although Flame still had battle strength, if they were against a high level yellow rank Warthog… They might not have the ability to hold on and fight. However, behind the Warthog was an endless stream of wild monsters, close to 100,000 of them.

Even with her high resiliency characteristic, she could not help but give up. It was too hopeless. 100,000 wild monsters against a three-man team; who would win?

There was no chance, no chance at all!

The two angel familiars stood at the corner of the wall facing the door and protected the three people behind them. They could sense that their masters were filled with despair. Angels were meant to bring hope to all living beings. Even if they died here, they had to protect the three people behind them.

Outside the door, the Warthog was getting more and more excited. Although it was very weak, it was confident that it would win with the number of monsters here right now.

Its strong body fiercely slammed into the basement door. However, the basement of the outer city was originally a place where the citizens were in a hurry to avoid danger. If it wasn’t for the sudden large-scale invasion of wild monsters, ordinary people would only need to hide in the basement… After a few days, the wild monsters lurking in the city would be dealt with.

Therefore, these basement doors were designed to deal with the wild monsters. They weren’t indestructible, but they could still defend against a few hits. However, there was no army of ability users to come over and support them now. The Warthog outside could continue to crash into the wall like this and it would end up breaking.

Many wild monsters were also knocking into the wall, making a lot of noise. Therefore, the Warthog knocking into the wall was not eye-catching.

The entire basement shook violently with each hit. The door was already somewhat deformed. According to the force of the collision just now, with another two or three hits, the door would be more or destroyed.

The two women had never faced such a scary situation before. Lin Zhenxing could no longer withstand the fear and wailed loudly. Lin Zhenyue also bit her lower lip, revealing a bitter expression. Their attention was on the Warthog that was about to break through the door. With each beat, their hearts skipped even louder.

…

At this moment, the Lin family received the news that a real instance dungeon had appeared in Dongning City. The news of the two princesses of the Lin family being involved in it was also spread.

The commander of the Military Ministry of Taixia Country — namely the father of the two girls — was sitting in front of the desk. He was reading the battle report while asking his secretary several questions. “Have you assessed the casualties of commoners and the loss of property? How many ability users have fallen into the real instance dungeon? Have the experts come up with a rescue plan?”

......

Dongning City was a third-tier small city. There were only over 100,000 to 200,000 ability-users in total. However, they were the war reserves of Taixia Country and the commoners of Taixia Country. Therefore, they couldn’t give up on the rescue.

“Chief, although there are casualties among commoners, there are not many. The Dongning City ability users have done a good job in rescuing them. The loss of property is about 20 billion. Although we don’t know the exact number of ability users who entered the dungeon, we can roughly estimate that 100,000 people were taken. The experts have no better solution. It’s hard to break the dungeon from the outside; it’s easier to break it from the inside... Additionally, your two daughters are also in the dungeon!”

“Okay.”

He did not say anything. In the face of national interests, relationships were secondary. The most important thing was that after this incident in Dongning City, there needed to be a fundamental change in the attitude of the monsters in the outer regions of other cities. Plus, the ability users have been living too comfortably, it was time for them to step up!

On the other hand, Principal Lin was burning with anxiety. He asked his assistant to book a ticket to Dongning. Unfortunately, all flights to Dongning had been stopped.

“Where’s Li Tianming?”

“He’s in a top-secret meeting. I can’t contact him.”

“Sh*t!”

Before he could make a decision, the Ministry of Education informed him of the meeting. It was about Dongning!

At this moment, in the real instance dungeon, the Warthog slammed into the basement door and a crack formed. The entire door was badly deformed now. It might not be able to withstand the next violent impact.

The two women saw the Warthog’s figure through the crack in the door. The pig’s squeaking sound was clearly transmitted into the basement. At this moment, the two women, who were filled with bouts of fear, started to uncontrollably tremble.

The Warthog stuck out its pig nose and constantly sniffed at the crack in the door. After the crack in the door opened, the familiar human scent became several times stronger. It wanted to finish what it started and kill the human off!

It took a few steps back and straightened the rock armor on its body. Then, with a sudden thud, it slammed into the basement door. With a loud thud, the entire door frame was knocked off.

The Warthog stuck its pig head into the basement. When it saw the three of them, its appetite was immediately aroused. It was about to enter the basement with its entire body, but the giant rock armor on its body was too big… it seemed to be stuck at the door.

Seeing this, a brilliant sun greatsword appeared in Flame’s hand. The blade of the sword was covered with golden flames of light. They brandished the greatsword and stepped forward, slashing viciously at the Warthog’s head.

The Warthog’s crimson eyes were filled with mockery. One had to know that boar-type wild monsters could unleash great power and pose a great threat to their opponents. The Warthog was the same. There was a giant rock hidden on its head. It was extremely hard. Not to mention a greatsword, even if ten greatswords were to attack together, they might not be able to break the hidden giant rock underneath.

However, the greatsword was not any ordinary weapon. It was wrapped in an intense flame of light. Its magic power was difficult to block!

This greatsword through the giant rock on top of the Warthog’s head, but it also caused the Warthog to go completely mad.

It took a few steps back, and its entire body retreated out of the basement. Flame took a few steps forward, stood at the entrance of the basement, and stared at it.

The Warthog’s front hooves dug into the ground, its body bent down, and its pig head lowered slightly. This was the charging stance. Other than its iron head, there was also its pig body. The bigger its body was, the more powerful it would be when charging. On the other hand, the Warthog had the blessing of the giant bloodline. Its size was considered huge even among pigs. In addition to its astonishing defense, the charge attack of this Warthog was not easy to deal with.

In an instant, the Warthog moved like a huge boulder being thrown out. The terrifying impact was then blocked by the greatsword. However, Flame’s body could not help but stumble. Just as the impact was about to hit the Lin Sisters, a pair of bronze hands reached out and pressed on the pig’s face, preventing the Warthog from advancing.

“Don’t be afraid, I’m back.”
