After taking a deep breath in the cold air, Caspian turned around. The passengers in the carriage were dumbfounded, probably frightened by what happened. The young girl that was with Zachary before still covered favonovel.com face as favonovel.com squatted on the floor, and favonovel.com did not even move once. Tanya’s husband held the child in his arms tightly, biting his lips until they cracked as favonovel.com tried his best not to cry.
“Casper… I… I think we can do something,” Maya suddenly said.
Looking at her, Caspian realized Maya was slightly different than before. Previously, Maya still had the cheekiness of a young girl, but favonovel.com appeared mature now. Her eyes glistened with determination as favonovel.com continued, “If we can safely arrive at Moonbright Town, I won‘t waste a single second anymore, as I’ll never let such a thing happen again.”
A seed rooted in Maya’s eyes. Looking at favonovel.com gaze, Maya believed the seed would soon grow into a towering and majestic tree in the future.
“Let’s do what’s in front of us first,” Caspian replied as favonovel.com nodded, “Remember what we promised Elder Wesley.”
“Yes!” Just as Maya responded, Caspian passed favonovel.com a storage bag. At a glance, favonovel.com knew that it was the one that Wesley gave Caspian before.
“What are you doing?” Maya was stunned, and favonovel.com eyes widened. Soon, favonovel.com breathing became rapid, and favonovel.com shouted, “What are you going to do?!”
Caspian replied calmly, “We’re not far from Mirefield Gate, but Mirefield Gate is a distance away from Moonbright Town. Elder Wesley mentioned before that Mirefield Gate can block 90% of the monsters, and I want to block the remaining ones.”
“You want to stop the incoming wave of monsters in Mirefield Gate?” Maya almost screamed, and favonovel.com hurriedly grabbed Caspian’s arm, “I won’t let you do that!”
Caspian smiled and pinched favonovel.com cheek. “Don’t worry. I won’t die as I still have something important to do. Besides, don’t forget what we promised Elder Wesley before.”
Maya wanted to say something, but Caspian’s gaze told favonovel.com that no matter what favonovel.com said, favonovel.com would never be able to change his decision.
At that time, the passengers in the carriage cheered. Caspian and Maya looked over and noticed a magnificent moat stood among the mountains.
“Mirefield Gate! ”
“We’ re reaching Mirefield Gate!”
“Once we enter Mirefield Gate, we’ll be safe!”
Everyone in the carrier seemed to find a place to vent their emotions, and they cheered.
Caspian also finally understood why Elder Wesley mentioned that Mirefield Gate could block 90% of the monsters. That was a towering mountain like a massive embankment, it stretched thousands of meters into the sky, and its surface was like a sharp blade. It was impossible for the monsters to climb over. Moreover, the top of the mountain could not be seen at a glance, and it hid among the clouds. Therefore, even the Golden Icebreaker Cranes could not directly fly over. The only way to pass through the mountains would be the passage at the foot of the hill, which could only accommodate carriages.
That was like the Mirefield Gate’s entrance, and it was strategically situated and challenging to access. As long as one guarded there, the monsters would not be able to rush in.
“Remember what we promised Elder Wesley. Bring these people safely into Moonbright Town. I’ll find you after this!” After saying that, Caspian leaped onto the roof without waiting for Maya’s reply.
Then, favonovel.com focused his sight on the distance far away. In the distant horizon, the flying snows were like billowing waves, and they got closer and closer. Caspian knew that those were the wave of monsters that continued to approach the carriage.
Even though Wesley and the others sacrificed their lives to block the wave of monsters and steal some time for everyone else to run away, they could not eliminate the wave of monsters. Hence, Caspian needed to seize the time and fight so that the carriage could enter Mirefield Gate before the wave of monsters got closer.
“The Heavenly Stars Sect’s support team is not here yet, so it’s up to me now.” Caspian looked at his Ghoul-Locker Spear. At that time, his urge to battle raged in him.
As time continued to pass by, the carriage appeared to be closer to Mirefield Gate. However, it would still take some time for them to reach the foot of the mountain. As the wave of monsters started to get closer to the carriage, the passengers once again had their hearts in their throats.
Caspian quietly stood on top of the carriage as if favonovel.com were a statue, and it was as if favonovel.com became one with the surroundings.
When the carriage was less than ten kilometers away from Mirefield Gate, they were still 30 kilometers away from the wave of monsters!
When the carriage was five kilometers away from Mirefield Gate, the wave of monsters was 13 kilometers behind them!
Caspian could greatly feel the wave of monsters’ sudden increase in speed. It was like raging waves, slamming one tide after another, and it almost made everyone’s heart jump out from their throat. He abruptly opened his eyes.
“The Firmament’s Ghoul-Locker Spear!” With a roar, Caspian raised his spear and stabbed at the snow.
Swoosh!
It was as if ink smeared a paper as the white snow was painted scarlet red.
Caspian swept his spear across, and the Golden Icebreaker Crane that was pierced through the head flew out immediately. Next, favonovel.com felt a gust of wind blowing behind him.
“The Ursa Major’s Blurred Shadows! Merak!”
Caspian’s figure flashed, pulling a series of afterimages.
Bang! Bang!
With two thunderous thuds, two Golden Icebreaker Cranes suddenly appeared, and two massive holes appeared where Caspian initially stood. Soon, the passengers’ crying and screaming sounds could be heard.
Caspian pierced at the cranes with his spear. Then, like lightning tearing through the sky, the Ghoul-Locker Spear stabbed through the body of one of the Golden Icebreaker Cranes, and blood started to gush out uncontrollably.
At the same time, a female shouted. Then, the sword energy slashed out with a swooshing sound, quickly chopping off the other Golden Icebreaker Crane’s head.
Mirefield Gate, and the wave of monsters was less than three kilometers from the carriage. The cranes called out endlessly around them, and it was apparent that they were restless.
As the carriage was less than 500 meters away from Mirefield Gate, the Carnassial-Toothed Snow Leopard leading the wave of monsters suddenly pounced forward and grabbed onto the carriage. In that instant, a piece of broken wood was blasted away, and the passengers started crying in fear.
Caspian jumped down from the roof and immediately stabbed a hole through the Carnassial-Toothed Snow Leopard’s back, nailing it to the ground. By doing that, the carriage continued to rush toward Mirefield Gate, but favonovel.com stayed outside and faced the wave of monsters alone.
“Casper!” Maya’s screaming became further and further.
“Bring everyone back!” Caspian roared.
When favonovel.com raised his head, favonovel.com saw a massive silhouette pouncing at him. It was another Carnassial-Toothed Snow Leopard. With its mouth wide open, it roared and grabbed at Caspian’s chest. Caspian immediately stepped on the monster‘s head beneath his feet and grabbed the spear, blocking himself with it.
Bang!
The Carnassial-Toothed Snow Leopard’s massive force knocked favonovel.com back. Then, Caspian tried to steady himself with both legs on the ground, and long traces appeared on the ground. With a grim expression, Caspian coldly looked at the Carnassial-Toothed Snow Leopard and uttered, “You’re going to die!”
