Chapter 1667
Just then, Steel entered the room and said, "Sir, we've always followed your orders without question, but this time, I hope you'll listen to what we say instead. What good is a man if he can't protect his woman?" He approached Adrian and stopped before him.Adrian looked at Steel, who continued, "Since you're unable to make a decision, let's have everyone in the city decide for you. Please come with me, sir." Steel turned and walked out, and everyone followed suit. Summoned by Steel, the citizens of Novemton flooded the square and streets. When Steel received word that Samantha had been found, he was afraid that Adrian would be in a difficult position, so he decided to gather everyone to make that decision on his behalf.Walking onto a high platform, Steel looked down at the sea of people and shouted, "Fellow Naviens, I have gathered you all here to ask a question."Everyone listened quietly."Since arriving in Novemton, Sir Draco has brought us electricity, restored the signal t

The voices continued to shout for several minutes, while Adrian remained silent. He had not expected the survivors to be so united, and there were no dissenting voices among them.Steel turned to Adrian and said, "Sir, everyone has agreed for you to go, so their words are now your orders. Please go to Swallowston and save your wife and daughter. We'll be waiting for you back here."Adrian took a deep breath and then slowly ascended the platform. Steel stepped aside to make way for him. Suddenly, Adrian fell to his knees. He was a hero of his generation, one who had achieved many great feats and would never get down on his knees for anyone. Yet, he was kneeling to the civilians.The crowd was stunned when they saw this, and everyone fell silent. Adrian said, "I owe you. I hereby swear that so long as I still breathe, I will lead all of you and rebuild our home."The moment he said this, everyone in the city got down on their knees as well, including Steel, Cian, Padraig, and Helen

Once the large gates swung open, Adrian shouldered his backpack and left for Swallowston. The fog outside was thick. The world was no longer divided into four seasons since the disaster hit. There was a huge shadow across the sky, choking out any signs of life.A car was parked outside, and it was going to be Adrian's means of traveling to Swallowston. If everything went smoothly, he would get to Swallowston in three days. If it were in the past, he would have been able to get there in a little over ten hours. "I'm coming, Nova!" Adrian shouted as he sped out of the city.Numerous monsters chased after his vehicle with their teeth and claws bared. The car raced down the streets of Novemton. There was no need to worry about pedestrians since there was no one about. Adrian could accelerate to his heart's content.As he exited the safe zone, entering the outer ring of Novemton, countless monsters that had been roaming the outskirts of the city followed after him. These monsters cam

‘I'm coming Nova!'This sentence lingered in Adrian's mind throughout the journey.Meanwhile, Ivy and Samantha, along with the other women, were sitting on the sofa in a room at Amber Communal. In the few hours that had passed since Remy's last contact with Adrian, and Adrian's departure from Novemton City, Ivy and Eira had tried countless escape plans. However, none of them had proven successful, and they soon realized that there was no way out.The area was swarming with monsters, numbering in the hundreds. Ivy and her team had limited ammunition left, and they needed to protect Samantha, Nova, and Gloria. It was impossible to run from the monsters.And it was not just Amber Communal. All of Swallowston was infested with monsters. Nova, who was hungry, suddenly started crying, which made Ivy and the others extremely anxious.Bam! Ivy, Eira, and Nyssa immediately stood up and held the door when a hammer banged on it. Samantha panicked, holding Nova tightly as tears streamed

Ivy forced a wry smile. She knew full well that monster blood was toxic, but saying it out loud provided some psychological comfort.The room fell silent again. Nobody wanted to talk, and neither was there anything left to say. They had considered numerous ways to escape, but all their attempts had failed. Ivy realized that they were stuck and had no way to leave the room.If they stayed, there was a chance that they would be rescued, albeit a slim one. On the contrary, if they left, it would truly be over for them.***Time slowly ticked by, and the women fell asleep. Eira was the only one who was by the window, continuing to observe the situation outside. She tried to think of a way for them to escape, but she could not come up with one.It was already evening by the time the group woke up, and they were all starving after having not eaten anything the entire day. Ivy, Eira, and Nyssa were particularly hungry, having expended energy during their fights against the monsters. Howe

Samantha and Gloria smiled as though Nova's voice washed away all their worries. Suddenly, they heard a commotion outside. Loud, thunderous footsteps reverberated through the area. Something colossal had arrived.Eira immediately shushed everyone. The women huddled near the window, peering out onto the grounds. To their shock, they saw a terrifying, ten-meter-tall monster entering the area. It was unlike any they had seen before, with an eerie, white skin that resembled something from myths.The giant monster's skin was unnaturally pale, giving it a terrifying appearance. It carried a massive hammer on its shoulder, and every step it took sent shockwaves throughout the building."What the hell is that?" Eira exclaimed in terror.It had been months since the disaster began, and they had never encountered such a gigantic monster."Keep your voice down," Ivy urged in barely above a whisper.The enormous monster proceeded into the building, and the other monsters kept their distanc

"Papa! Papa!" Nova continued to babble, completely unaware that she was radiating a powerful aura. Samantha was frozen, while Ivy and the others stared at Nova in shock. The child was emanating some sort of energy, and the glow around her was getting stronger by the second. Soon, she was enveloped in a purple light. The floorboards beneath her continued to crack as the whole building trembled with powerful energy."Wh-What's going on? What's happening to her?" Samantha was slightly frightened by the changes in Nova. Anxiously, she tried to reach out to grab Nova but was repelled by the energy."Don't touch her, Sam," Ivy cautioned. "Papa!" Nova kept calling out as the energy around her grew stronger. "What's happening to her?" Nyssa asked in confusion and shock. She had no idea what was happening."Do you remember what happened with Jerome and Remy during the selection?" Ivy asked, and all eyes turned to her."Jerome and Remy suddenly unleashed some sort of power that allowed

An explosion reverberated through the air as the purple aura obliterated the hammer, shattering it into pieces. The powerful force also sent the surrounding monsters flying, while the pale monster fell over.Since it was not the time to be amazed, Ivy yelled, "Now's our chance! Let's go!" "Nova!" Samantha screamed in terror."The monsters can't harm her. We have to go!" Ivy urged.Gloria, Eira, Nyssa, and Ivy rushed out, making their way toward the building's entrance while the monsters were still recovering from their shock. Nova, however, was left behind. Samantha struggled against Ivy's grip. The situation was not going as they had expected.The women looked back as they ran. The pale monster had gotten back on its feet and was staring down at Nova, who was still sitting on the ground as though she was playing a game. The monster seemed a little confused, then raised its foot to stomp the little girl.Nova emitted another surge of purple light. This time, the light shattered
