Chapter 656: Lu Shu is Going to Jump into the Sea
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lu Shu guessed that his Saint had specifically come here to fight the bishop from the Department of Faith Theory. This Cla.s.s A expert was indeed as strong as he had been described in legends. But all this had nothing to do with Lu Shu. The important thing was, the Saint had saved him!
He took the chance while Francesco and the others feared the Saint to break through. His celestial powers repelled the binding impact the light had on him.
Francesco and the rest were afraid that the Saint would suddenly target them. They could only look on helplessly as Lu Shu escaped.
Lu Shu was immensely grateful to the Saint. He felt that the Saint was a warm-hearted and helpful person. If they liked to fight, let them be. Just leave Lu Shu out of it… even though he had killed Howard, the Saint had still saved him. He was the most kind-hearted person on this planet.
Wait, no…
As Lu Shu wildly ran towards the wilderness, he remembered that he was now Howard. That person had saved Howard…
Ahem. He did not have to care that much. He was very grateful. If it were not for the Saint, he would have been dead.
But this way, Lu Shu could confirm that the Saint took no more than two hours to come here. If not, he would have seen “Howard” cremate “Howard”. If this was the case, Lu Shu would really have died…
The Saint’s voice suddenly sounded from the sky. “You coward. I have finally caught you today.”
The voice was very calm, but carried extraordinary confidence!
The bishop’s voice was shrill and old. “Wildly arrogant people will eventually be destroyed.”
The Saint suddenly laughed out loud. “I’m afraid that the ones who can destroy me have not been born.”
The bishop said coldly, “Francesco, what are you doing? Hurry up and kill Howard!”
Francesco and the rest chased after Lu Shu. The Saint suddenly flew over. When he dived, even the tree branches were broken by the great pressure he produced.
The bishop tried to block him, but he did not think that the Saint would suddenly stop helping Howard run away. His actions were just to draw the bishop’s attention.
The Saint turned around and delivered a punch. A silver s.h.i.+eld appeared before the bishop and blocked the punch, but he still suffered slight injuries.
The two of them once again rose up into the sky. Neither of them cared about what was happening on the ground.
Lu Shu was slightly disappointed. If the Saint could continue to protect him, he would have no problems while in Africa!
But he had understood the situation. The Saint had saved Howard while he was here. He had come here to fight, not to save people.
Anguo was an important port in Africa. Back then, EO had established its headquarters here not just because of the mineral resources, but also because this was where a majority of the goods from the sea were circulated and distributed. Lu Shu ran wildly and slowly made deliberate changes to his path.
He had found a way out. The best place was of course his home ground, water! If not, they would eventually catch up to him at this rate! This made Lu Shu very unhappy. They were going to fight to their last gasp!
But Lu Shu realized that he was running away from the sea. He was heading towards the inland…
No! He had to change direction!
Ten minutes pa.s.sed. 20 minutes pa.s.sed. 30 minutes pa.s.sed…
Lu Shu looked back and saw Francesco and the rest chasing him. He had enough destructive power, but his physique was still no match for a true Cla.s.s B expert, especially Cla.s.s B peak experts like Francesco.
The distance between the two parties started to narrow. Lu Shu could faintly hear the sound of their footsteps, affecting his own heartbeat.
He did not know why the footsteps sounded so odd. They sounded like ancient iron-clad horses and war drums, completely exposing their intent to kill.
As Lu Shu ran, he could occasionally hear the fight between the two metal element Metahumans. The sharp metal flew past him like a shooting star. If he was not careful, he could get injured
Although there were plants in this wilderness, the ground was very dry. The sandy soil was very thick. When Lu Shu ran and kicked up some of the sandy soil, it was like a sandstorm. With his speed, he unintentionally kicked up smoke and dust.
Not long after, the figures behind Lu Shu grew smaller and smaller…
Francesco was very annoyed. Whoever was in front would gain the upper hand in a place like this. The people chasing behind would all have dust in their mouths! Because of this, they could not catch up to Lu Shu for a while.
Not only that, they also realized that Lu Shu was having some fun. As they ran, Lu Shu obtained a long branch from somewhere that he dragged on the ground as he ran. The branch was not heavy, but the branch also sent dust flying into the air. Francesco almost could not see where Lu Shu was…
“From Francesco Russo’s distress, +666!”
Lu Shu took a large detour. At first, Francesco and the others did not notice, but slowly, everyone suddenly realized that Lu Shu was running back…
There were no landmarks in this wilderness that they could refer to. Furthermore, the sand and dust covered their field of sight. Francesco and the rest did not pay attention to where they were running towards. But it was different now. At first, the Saint and the bishop had been fighting above them. Now, everyone slowly looked up and saw the two figures in the air.
Lu Shu shouted, “Save me!”
Francesco and the rest were speechless. Did he realize that he could not escape and came to seek help?!
Everyone was on their guard. They were not sure whether the Saint would help Howard again. Furthermore, Lu Shu did not speak in long sentences. This was different to when he was handling affairs. Back then, it did not matter whether his character was destroyed. He could get rid of those who realized anyway.
But if his character was destroyed this time, the Saint could kill him in a matter of minutes. He did not know how Howard usually spoke to the Saint either. The shorter his sentences, the better.
But Lu Shu suddenly realized that the Saint and bishop were going further and further away…
“Don’t go!” Lu Shu shouted.
But Lu Shu realized that the Saint had no intention of helping him!
The Phoenix Society was not as united as he had thought. He had even praised the Saint for his compa.s.sion. I, Lu Shu, have been mistaken!
Where is the sea? As Lu Shu ran for his life, he confirmed the direction where the sea was. He was going to jump into the sea!
