Chapter 720

~7 min read 1,221 words

"Yeah, even if the earthquake stops in the end, we will probably be dead by then."

"Damn it, we just want to live honestly, why is it so difficult."

"Candace, thank you for your hard work, but don't worry about us. In this situation, you can't save everyone."

"Yeah, yeah, rather than dragging you down, I might as well just die now, old man."

The villagers of Aaru Village said.

Candace pursed her lips; she wanted to refute the people's words and tell everyone that she could protect them.

However, before the words could come out, a huge shadow suddenly enveloped the entire Aaru Village.

Candace and the other villagers of Aaru Village looked up and were shocked to find that the giant Grass Dragon had actually arrived above their heads.

"Did it actually come here?"

Candace muttered to herself, her heart suddenly filled with unease.

If Aaru Village was far from the battlefield, she would have had the confidence to save everyone in Aaru Village.

However, when the Grass Dragon descended on Aaru Village, Candace had no such confidence at all.

Just looking at the Grass Dragon's massive figure, Candace knew that the battle between Lesser Lord Kusanali and the Grass Dragon was definitely not something someone like her could easily step into.

Even if she forced her way in, what awaited her would just be the loss of another life.

In fact, it was just as Candace worried.

As the Grass Dragon approached, besides the earthquake, disasters such as sandstorms and tornadoes successively descended on Aaru Village.

In an instant, a large number of houses turned into ruins.

Fortunately, Candace had gathered the villagers, so there were no casualties for the time being.

However, as time passed, the power Candace used to maintain the defense against the disasters grew weaker and weaker.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Candace was about to be unable to hold on.

Seeing this, even the villagers of Aaru Village who were still looking forward to escaping started to join the elders in persuading Candace to leave.

They didn't want Candace, who had guarded them for so long, to die here just like them.

However, Candace shook her head forcefully.

"Guarding Aaru Village is my responsibility as a guardian."

"Even if I die, I will not leave here!"

Candace said with a firm tone.

That said, Candace also understood that relying solely on willpower would not help her help everyone overcome the difficulties.

In the face of crisis, Candace inexplicably thought of her identity as a descendant of King Deshret.

"King Deshret, although I am your descendant, I have never expected to be able to obtain your power."

"But for this one time, please grant me the power to protect everyone."

Candace gritted her teeth and said while resisting the sandstorm.

"Want to obtain power? In that case, I will grant you a little power."

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded beside Candace.

"Are you... Mr. Luo Feng?!"

Candace turned her head and looked at Luo Feng, who had appeared beside her, in immense surprise.

Behind Luo Feng were Lisa, Seele, Ruan Mei, and others.

"It's not King Deshret; I don't know if you will feel any regret."

Luo Feng smiled and threw the Light Cone "Texture of Memories," which contained the power of Preservation, toward Candace.

The Light Cone landed in front of Candace's chest, and a gentle force immediately enveloped Candace.

"This is... 'Texture of Memories'!"

Candace widened her eyes and muttered in disbelief.

Luo Feng had once lent this Light Cone to Klee, and Klee had used this Light Cone to summon an energy shield capable of resisting a dragon disaster.

Candace had a deep impression of this.

"I have granted you the usage rights of the Light Cone."

"However, to what extent you can use it depends on your own will."

"But I think you should have no problem."

Luo Feng looked at Candace and said.

"Thank you, Mr. Luo Feng." Candace nodded heavily, then set a firm expression and assumed a shield-bearing posture toward the front.

Hum!

Accompanied by the surge of energy from Candace's Vision and the Light Cone,

a Hydro energy shield with golden light immediately centered on Candace and enveloped the entire Aaru Village.

In an instant, the originally noisy environment became quiet, and disasters such as earthquakes, tornadoes, and sandstorms all dissipated.

It was as if the entire Aaru Village had been isolated by the Hydro energy shield summoned by Candace.

【Dehya: Phew, that's great, I was scared to death just now! I didn't expect the situation in Aaru Village to be so bad! I must thank Mr. Luo Feng properly later.】

【Kaveh: The situation in the desert is indeed very severe; fortunately, Mr. Luo Feng went over.】

【Kaeya: No matter how many times I see it, I will still be amazed by the power of this Light Cone.】

【Jean: Candace seems to be using her own power to activate the Light Cone.】

【Cloud Retainer: It's consistent with the situation when Signora used Mr. Luo Feng's Light Cone!】

【Mr. Luo Feng opened the permissions of the Light Cone, and to what extent the user can use the Light Cone depends on the user's potential.】

【Zhongli: Being able to summon an energy shield that isolates the battle area between the Grass Dragon and Lesser Lord Kusanali, this Candace's will is quite strong.】

"What do you think of this little girl, Cocolia?"

Suddenly, Luo Feng looked at Cocolia beside him with a smile.

"A very strong girl."

"To some extent, she is very similar to Bronya."

Cocolia said.

"That's right, actually this girl named Candace is also a guardian."

"However, the object she guards is the Aaru Village beneath our feet."

Luo Feng laughed.

"It's a shame to say, although I am the guardian of Aaru Village,"

"if it weren't for your help, Mr. Luo Feng,"

"I would have had no way to protect everyone."

"And now... Aaru Village has also been ruined."

Candace looked at the ruins around her and sighed deeply.

"That said, people are fine, aren't they."

"As for the houses and such, can't they just be rebuilt afterward?"

Luo Feng laughed.

Hearing this, Candace nodded in agreement.

"By the way, Mr. Luo Feng, this Light Cone..."

Candace picked up the Light Cone that was still emitting light and looked at Luo Feng with hesitation.

"Keep it for now, the Grass Dragon hasn't calmed down yet."

"If you want to maintain the defensive barrier, you need the power of the Light Cone."

"Speaking of which, you are quite good at using the power of Preservation."

"If you have a chance to draw my train ticket and follow me to the universe,"

"you should have a high probability of stepping onto the Path of Preservation."

Luo Feng waved his hand and said.

【Ningguang: Being able to make Mr. Luo Feng say such words, it seems he values this lady named Candace very much.】

【Dehya: As expected of Candace, I said she had a chance to step onto the Path of Preservation.】

【Signora: Her degree of use of the Light Cone "Texture of Memories" should be very deep.】

"The power of Preservation... it really is a great power."

Candace heard Luo Feng's words, and her yearning for the Path of Preservation increased in her heart.
