Chapter 115: "Fantasy World: Lin Xiao's Journey of Counterattack from Despair"
The sky of the Fantasy World Continent was like a violently stirred ink pool. The thick haze was like a raging evil wave, surging wildly, as if it was going to swallow up the whole world. The strong wind was like a wild horse that had broken free from its reins, roaring and galloping past. Wherever it passed, trees were uprooted, and huge rocks were swept into the air and then smashed down fiercely, making a terrifying noise.
Lin Xiao was running alone in the wilderness with raging winds and flying sand and rocks. Her hair had long been messed up by the wind, and the sweat on her face mixed with dust formed dirty traces. Her eyes were wide open, filled with extreme fear and determination, and every breath seemed to be desperately snatching the hope of survival from the air.
"What the hell is going on? Why did he suddenly become like this!" Lin Xiao gasped and roared wildly in his heart.
Not long ago, Lin Xiao's peaceful life was completely broken by a sudden disaster. The mysterious and terrifying dark power was like a plague, sweeping across the entire Fantasy World Continent in an instant, bringing not only death and destruction, but also endless chaos and despair.
Behind Lin Xiao, a group of hideous and bizarre monsters were chasing him like a surging tide. Some of them had sharp fangs, some were covered with hard scales, and some had strange lights flashing in their eyes and emitting creepy roars.
"Don't run, little girl, just become our meal!" The monsters' voices seemed to come from the abyss of Hell, carrying with them endless greed and evil.
Lin Xiao gritted her teeth and quickened her pace. "If you want to catch me, just dream on!"
Her clothes had been torn to shreds by the thorns and branches on the roadside, and her arms and legs were covered with shocking bloodstains. But at this moment, she didn't care about the pain at all, and had only one thought in her mind: run, run non-stop!
Suddenly, a turbulent river with surging waves and splashing waves appeared in front of us. The river was roaring and making a deafening roar, like an angry beast.
Lin Xiao paused, his heart instantly filled with hesitation and fear, "This river is so fierce, can I make it through?"
However, before she could come up with a countermeasure, the monsters behind her were getting closer and closer, and the disgusting stench also filled her nose.
"It seems like I have no choice but to fight to the death!" Lin Xiao took a deep breath, a look of determination flashing in his eyes.
She clenched her fists, mustered all her courage, and jumped without hesitation into the icy and dangerous river.
As soon as she entered the water, Lin Xiao was swept under by a powerful force. The cold river water instantly surrounded her, and the biting coldness was like countless sharp knives, piercing every inch of her skin, making her almost unconscious. But with her tenacious will and strong desire to survive, she desperately waved her arms and tried to float to the surface.
"I can't die here, I must live!" Lin Xiao kept cheering himself up in his heart, and every breath became so difficult.
After finally swimming to the other side, Lin Xiao was exhausted. She climbed up the shore in a panic, gasping for breath, as if she wanted to inhale all the air in the world into her lungs.
However, before she could recover, another wave of danger approached quietly like a ghost.
"Haha, little girl, do you think you can escape from our clutches?" A eerie and terrifying voice sounded in her ears, as if it came from the depths of hell.
Lin Xiao raised her head suddenly, and saw a mysterious man in black robes appear in front of her. The man's face was covered with a thick shadow, making it impossible to see his face clearly. But the evil aura emanating from him was like an invisible net, tightly enveloping Lin Xiao, making it difficult for her to breathe.
Lin Xiao clenched his fists, his body shaking uncontrollably, "Who are you? Why are you forcing me so hard?"
The black-robed man sneered, his voice full of disdain and ridicule, "You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know that your fate has already been determined. In this fantasy world, you are nothing more than an ant that can be slaughtered at will."
As he spoke, the man in black robe slowly stretched out a hand as dry as a branch, and a powerful and strange black force surged out from his palm and swept towards Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao was unable to dodge and was hit hard by the force. Her body flew out like a kite with a broken string and fell heavily to the ground.
"Puff..." Lin Xiao couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood, and severe pain instantly spread throughout her body. She felt as if her internal organs were displaced, and every breath brought piercing pain.
"Am I really going to die here?" Lin Xiao closed his eyes in despair, tears rolling down his cheeks.
At this moment, a dazzling light like the dawn suddenly fell from the sky, instantly illuminating the entire dark world.
A mysterious and tall figure appeared in front of Lin Xiao. He exuded a sacred and inviolable aura, as if he was a god from the sky.
"Don't be afraid, little girl. I'm here." The mysterious man's voice was deep and powerful, carrying a magical power that made people feel at ease.
Lin Xiao slowly opened her eyes, which were filled with hope and doubt. She looked at the mysterious figure in front of her and asked in a trembling voice: "Who... who are you? Why did you save me?"
The mysterious man smiled and said, "The time has not come yet, so you don't need to know. But as long as I am here, I will not let these evil forces hurt you in the slightest."
Lin Xiao bit her lip and struggled to get up from the ground. "Thank you, but I don't want to rely on others all the time. I want to become strong and fight against these evils!"
The mysterious man nodded, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes, "Very good, with such determination, you are qualified to survive in this fantasy world."
At this moment, the black-robed man roared angrily, "Hmph, don't think you can be safe just because he is protecting you! This fantasy world is ultimately the world of our dark forces!"
The mysterious man's face darkened, "How dare you! You can't be so arrogant while I'm here!"
A fierce battle is about to break out. Can Lin Xiao find hope for survival in this desperate situation? Can the mysterious man defeat the powerful dark forces? Everything is still unknown...
