t. Maybe he should have been more tactful...."Your Majesty, Xu Fu will not return. And the shores of the East Sea may not have the mythical Penglai Island!" Lu Cheng still had a firm expression on his..."Chairman, you don't have to be so anxious. The man beside Google Search.com smiled and adjusted his glasses slightly."

"Can I not be anxious You said it takes two days to erase the evidence, I've done enough negotiating, but that old geezer actually came to Dongshi City, the military acted too quickly!"

"Chairman, that white 4-star domain card of the lieutenant should be barely enough against a deteriorated level 1 Fairy Town. Plus, his card has a small area, so it won't be very fast at saving people."

"What do you mean"

"There are no messages yet, everyone thinks this is just an accident. They'll definitely ask us to cooperate fully. We'll enter the Dueling Arena together later and coordinate the rescue...."

Then

"Fairy Town was pressed down to Stage 1 with 1600 [Energy-Absorbing Ores]. I remember that two of the biggest ones were buried underground at the entrance. If we seize the opportunity and pull them out..."

The chairman's eyes lit up.

"You mean, letting Storybrooke deteriorate to stage 2"

"That's right, Lee Eun's battlefield domain definitely can't hold up, they can only retreat. Even the high-star field commanders of the military aren't enough. To break through stage 2, at least a major is needed. That's tomorrow's business."

Okay! Okay!

........

At 3:32 AM, Mermaid Beach Parking Lot in Storybook Town.

It was getting late, and people were showing signs of fatigue, but the defenses remained strong.

Lu Cheng tried adding a pinch of salt from the pantry in the dispatch room to the hot pot.

It seems like nothing has changed.

He stretched his body and, as he looked up at the sky, he suddenly saw a slight change in the energy flow.

"Captain Wang! The rescue has arrived!"

The captain of the army's cavalry unit, Wang Han, upon hearing this, immediately removed the military cap covering his face and stood up, gazing at the sky.

"Wow! A SIM card!"

......

"Captain, I'm being interfered with by chaotic energy, can't hear clearly, but our people have definitely entered!"

Wang Han put on his hat and shouted loudly.

"Everyone, pay attention! Reinforcements have arrived! Now, follow me, let's go home!"

.......

"Woohoo, I can finally go home!"

Where have you been all this time!

Although there have been no casualties in the parking lot, the attacks by the mutated creatures never cease. The horrific sight of the beach remains etched in everyone's minds.

Upon hearing the news of rescue, everyone cheered and wept with joy.

Lu Cheng's heart skipped a beat.

The crowd was too loud.

"Can we retreat That's awesome! Let's go!" The fat man stood up, patted the dust off his buttocks and said.

"Roommate! Don't put the pot away yet! I want to get another piece of potato, and I'll add a status update!" Tang Wenyao ran over excitedly.

This girl is pretty athletic! She can still run!

"Give me some potatoes too. And hey, Fatty, remember to keep some energy for the road. If anything happens, stick with me, and I'll lead you all to safety." Liu Hongying whispered.

Don't worry, I've got this.

"Oh, by the way, remember to take your card out directly when you leave, don't pull it hard, the hair will be pulled off and difficult to grow back!"

......

When it comes to fleeing, people move very quickly.

Soon, people inserted the remaining energy cards into 9 vehicles and everyone gradually got in.

The military officers and 2 Blue Card Masters led the way in the lead car, while Lu Cheng's team and the remaining Blue Card Masters, along with White 5-Star and above card masters, were responsible for covering the retreat in the rear car.

"Squad, head south. Follow the lead vehicle and keep a lookout at the rear. We have enough energy to get us to the Blacksmith's Workshop. When we arrive, we dismount and proceed on foot..."

Before he could finish his words, a hiss suddenly echoed through the night!

The passively aggressive creatures in the vicinity have worsened.

One after another, black unicorns with single horns approached the convoy like a gust of wind.

"Quick! Engage!"

Tour buses are not designed for racing, and they start very slowly.

The mages of the convoy began to hurl spells, trying to stop the unicorn from approaching.

Finally, a unicorn crashed heavily into the side of a car.

The vehicle's rated passenger capacity is only 24, but it is now completely packed.

The ram pierced through the vehicles, and a blood mist instantly erupted in the crowd!

"Ah! Help!"

"Mom!"

.......

The vehicle was hit and its speed noticeably decreased, then another one rammed into it!

The giant truck rammed into a sightseeing car shaped like a tree leaf, causing it to swerve dangerously and almost roll over.

From within the nearby cars, streaks of magical cards flashed in hopes of saving them, but it was all in vain.......

Finally, a unicorn rammed the energy container with all its might.....

They are doomed.

"Hurry up!"

The remaining tour buses sped past the burning wreckage, fleeing for their lives.

.......

Just now, the rear car almost didn't get away. The fat slime clung tightly to the back of the car, blocking the critical attack, and was then killed by Tang Wuyao's sword.

"Wow, Fat Brother's got some skills!" exclaimed a passenger in the car.

"Oh well, small stage....... This is just getting started. Let me tell you, back in the day, Big Brother I fought...."

The fat man was beside himself with excitement, gesticulating wildly as he spoke.

Tang Wuyao wasn't so spirited anymore, she retracted her Thunder Saber, and her pretty face was a little pale.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Her beautiful eyes couldn't hide the weariness in them.

"Sis, why don't we take a nap.... I'll call you if anything happens," Tang Wenyao said worriedly.

"Let's just get out of here, it's fine. I'm still good, the Thunder Sword is too stable, low energy consumption. How did the boss make this"

"Shh, he might just be a master experiencing life."

"Don't read too much fiction! A big shot like him should be able to get some news online..."

.......

Lu Cheng remained silent throughout the journey. He had never been particularly talkative, especially when things required his utmost attention.

The speed of the car was not fast, and energy in the sky was gradually flowing.

Visually it seems stable, should be fine....

I tentatively extended my hand, feeling for any changes in the wind speed.

Attention passengers, please do not put your head or hands out the window!

Lu Cheng turned his head. A pretty flight attendant was treating the wounded with a shiny white card while reminding herself.

"...OK."

What a workaholic!

Relax your grip and ease up a bit. It should be fine.

........

At 4:12 in the morning, in the Toymaker's Workshop of Storybook Town.

The sightseeing bus stopped.

The Carpenter's Workshop is from the story of Pinocchio, where he is a wooden boy whose nose grows when he lies.

However, the "Fairy Tale Carpenter" card series is no longer obtainable. Andy's Consortium has renovated this place and turned it into a scenic spot.

This place isn't very large and it's nowhere near as expansive as Mermaid Beach. There shouldn't be too many degenerate creatures here.

This is Wang Han's judgement, and Lu Cheng also basically agrees.

However, the fact that there aren't many deteriorating organisms doesn't mean we can be careless.

On the way, he synthesized a [Fire Arrow (Fish Oil)] by combining one [Crossbow Bolt] and some leftover [Fish Oil] from a hot pot.

Although this fish oil is very impure and might not burn well, at least it can be used to ignite things from a distance.

It's better to be prepared than not, wooden monsters are usually weak against fire.

"Everyone get out, first secure the area, check headcount and cards! Let's stick together and search around for some vehicle energy cards. Also, leave some people to watch the car!"

People are saying they want to stay, that staying in the convoy is safer than going out to look for energy cards.

Finally, Wang Han considered it and found Lu Cheng and the others.

"Um, could you guys stay and look at the car Xu Zhi will be with you, and you have Bear. If anything happens, you can also notify the main force."

.......

Meanwhile, the carpentry workshop at the back.

A tour bus was pierced from front to back, the inside resembling hell on Earth.

If Wang Han were here, he would certainly recognize the woman who escaped a few hours ago and the dozens of followers who accompanied her.

People died in a gruesome manner, each with a terrifying blood hole in their chests.

A wounded survivor, eyes closed, trembled beneath the pile of corpses, praying not to be discovered.

The only thing is, he doesn't know.

A "person" stands alone before him.

I am not a piece of wood.

Suddenly, something grew out of 「人」’s face, piercing into the pile of corpses. Blood splattered!

The survivors trembled all over, too frightened to speak.

"Oh Not long enough"

Then "that person" moved a little closer.

"Pinocchio... loves humans most of all!" The Dan Yao hasn't been formed yet, I can wait for you a while." Liu Changqing said."Ah, Elder!" Lu Cheng bowed respectfully. "The elixir is complete within the cauldron."Lu Cheng was already late, b...
