In the flash of lightning, a strong and powerful hand grabbed Lorraine and dragged her up to the rock. At the same time he gave the mutated Qian Xu a firm kick, made him flew away.
Lorraine couldn't care who saved her and immediately turned around looking backward.
Qian Xu fell heavily to the ground, but his mutated body was very tough. He just rolled once and immediately stood up then raised his head to look up at the towering rock.
He also seemed to know that the people above were not easy to deal with so he didn't act blindly without thinking anymore, just stared at Lorraine with threatening growl in his throat.
Lorraine lay on the rock's edge, staring at Qian Xu carefully, trying to find human traces on his body.
The majestic head resembled lion and tiger. Sharp fangs resembled ghastly cold dagger. There was only grim bloodthirsty in his scarlet eyes, no trace of warmth. Slender body was nearly two meters tall, but was as vigorous and agile as a cheetah. With four strong limbs and sharp claws, it could tear a powerful strongman in half.
Apart from few pieces of clothes remaining on his body, there was no Qian Xu's trace.
Completely animalized, manifestation of sudden mutation change! Lorraine's heart gradually sank toward the abyss of despair.
She cried with tears: "Qian Xu!"
Qian Xu soared up, jumped onto a two meters tall rock then jumped another more than three meters high leaping toward Lorraine's rock top.
The man who had been standing silently behind Lorraine kicked over again, drove Qian Xu toughly down the ground.
"Could you more gentle!" Lorraine yelled at him, only to realize that it turned out to be Consul.
He wore black hooded robe and covered his face with icy silver mask. He glanced at Lorraine without the slightest warmth then cast his gaze over Lorraine.
"Captured two. The remaining seven were all dead." Zi Yan's voice suddenly came through.
Lorraine looked back and saw Zi Yan standing on four meters tall rock, looking at the after-mutated Qian Xu.
A group of fully equipped soldiers moved in from between the narrow path of the rock forest in an orderly formation pace.
Qian Xu became even madder, his eyes glowed monstrous red ray. He roared angrily and was itching to unleash an attack.
Zi Yan's expression was stern. He raised his hand and soldiers stopped in unison.
They raised their guns, quickly dispersed, and surrounded Qian Xu.
Lorraine hastily shouted with plea: "Zi Yan, don't shoot. It's Qian Xu!"
"Fifteen golden minutes had passed. He is a beast, not Qian Xu!" Zi Yan said coldly.
"No, he can awake again!"
Her word just came out and Qian Xu had already thrown himself towards a soldier. The soldier hadn't received order so he didn't dare to shoot. He could only draw his dagger to ward off, but Qian Xu was so violently vicious that by comparison he was completely unable to withstand.
In the time of crisis, Zi Yan abruptly turn on flashlight in his hand beaming light over Qian Xu's body, illuminate his whole body as bright as in daytime. "Lorraine, look clearly, he had completely changed!"
The beaming light irritated Qian Xu to anger. He abruptly turned around, roared and flew towards Zi Yan.
Zi Yan calmly composed, and with a wave of his hand, several Tarot cards whizzed and flew towards Qian Xu.
Purple light stream as beautiful as spirits danced and swirled and fluttered around Qian Xu.
In fact, each fluttering glitter of light was all sharp blade, cutting his limbs, ripping his body, and would sliced his throat.
A shadow of someone broke into the fluttering light stream like a moth flew into the fire, chased the light stream with all strength.
With bare hands and empty fists, she seized light stream and caught each tarot cards into her hand. Those that couldn't really be caught she used her own body to block them.
Her speed was getting faster and faster, gradually decelerated light stream speedม until fluttering light stream became less and less.
When the last purple ray of light disappeared, Lorraine blood-dripping stood in front of seriously injured Qian Xu, holding eight tarot cards in her hand and eight tarot cards on her body.
Zi Yan's face was full of shock and frightened. Lorraine to go as far in order to protect Qian Xu had broken through her body limits in his Tarot's slaughter matrix. She had advanced to an A level strongman, completely put Qian Xu's life and death above her own!
Lorraine threw blood-soaked red tarot cards to the ground, and looked at Zi Yan and Consul stubbornly: "You want to kill him, you must kill me first!"
"You protecting a beast that only think of eating you like this doesn't make any sense!"
Zi Yan couldn't understand Lorraine at all. As a strictly groomed successor, he had witnessed with his own eyes and personally experienced many mutation changes. Insistence, grief, and even fear and hatred, he had seen it all. In the end, everyone would weigh their gains and losses on the basis of current reality and made rational choices. Gave up what you have to give up. Protect what was worth protecting. For the first time in his life to see someone so willful, completely disregarded the consequences, regardless of what would be gain or lose, and still hold the already mutation changed beast as their most precious thing to protect with their life.
"I will take care of him and will never cause you guys trouble. Please let him go!" Lorraine begged from the bottom of her heart while staring cautiously at Zi Yan and Consul.
"How do you take care of it? It will always be in a frenzied state, attacking and biting everything. There's no any tranquilizer that can calm it down."
Lorraine quickly thought of how to convince Zi Yan and Consul.
Qian Xu who had been lying on the ground suddenly raised his head and ghastly-cold stared at Lorrain with his scarlet eyes. Zi Yan immediately raised his hand and shot another Tarot card. His murderous aura was even more pressuring, intended toward Qian Xu's throat.
Lorraine swept backwards, trying to stop the tarot card.
Qian Xu had waited and already readied. When he saw Lorraine actually came near him, he immediately jumped up and attacked her.
Lorraine caught Zi Yan's card and hindered Qian Xu's fatal danger, but Qian Xu opened his mouth and bit her mercilessly.
At the moment of a thousand pounds hung on a thread, Consul appeared next to Lorraine, one hand pushed Lorraine away and struck Qian Xu with another.
Lorraine didn't have time to turn around to stop Consul so she could only use the tarot card she just caught as a hidden weapon threw it at Consul's hand with all her strength.
The dazzling purple light cut Consul's wrist and forced Consul to slow down.
Lorraine took the opportunity to fly forward. Both hands did not stop pulling out the stabbed tarot cards on her body one after one and threw them at Consul as hidden weapon.
Consul didn't take it seriously even the slightest bit. His hand merely bounced off those cards lightly like brushing clouds in the air, while another hand struck Qian Xu without mercy once again.
"Stop!"
Amidst the heart-piercing screams, Lorraine erupt astonishing power. Her speed unexpectedly increased once more and flew onto Qian Xu's body, trying to help Qian Xu took Consul's hand.
That time Consul was caught off guard, he rigidly stopped his hand and changed from a strike to pull, wanted to pull Lorraine away.
In split second, in a snap of fingers, like flashing fire, the wind from his waving palm had not yet disappeared but Qian Xu's fangs had already bitten Lorraine's arm, tearing off her whole arm abruptly.
Consul dragged Lorraine into his arms. Blood was just splashed over, not only Lorraine's face was all covered with blood, but Consul's mask was also full of blood.
"You, your arm..." Consul stared at Lorraine's torn arm. His icy blue eyes were hard to believe.
Lorraine's face turned pale with pain but and all her mind was still on Qian Xu. Her only hand grabbed Consul's arm desperately: "Don't kill him! Please! Please..."
Consul held Lorraine who's on the verge of collapsing in his arm, another hand ruthlessly struck down like terrifying claps thunder. Qian Xu let out a sorrowful cry and slowly fell to the ground.
