Chapter 265: Anjou's Despair

At the moment when the tentacles suddenly activated, the original bright red light suddenly dimmed.

The dark red light gave the others a warning.

Anjou hadn't reacted yet, after all, she was only a bronze-level student, and she was just a lonely wanderer more than a year ago, although she had received a lot of training in the academy, she still didn't have much sense of battle.

When the tentacles swooped in, she didn't react at all.

However, the strong man behind Anjou was not an ordinary person, he only frowned slightly, then reached out and grabbed this tentacle suddenly, pulled it off at will, and threw it to the ground.

Anjou was startled at this time and turned to look at the altar.

At this time, she realized that there seemed to be a problem here, so she immediately screamed.

It was only soon that she found that she couldn't make a sound, and the screams in her mouth were like subtle babbles, and she couldn't shout at all.

Anjou understood that this place must have been silenced.

A sudden panic swelled up in her heart, and she immediately ran towards the metal gate without looking back.

But she had barely taken a few steps before she stumbled forward, and when she looked back, she saw dozens of blood-colored tentacles shooting out from the altar, about to grab her.

And on her foot, there happened to be a tentacle clenching tightly, and the intense pain made her cry out uncontrollably.

But the voice still can't be heard.

"Am I going to die here?"

Anjou's heart was filled with fear, and the next moment she saw a flash of white light, and the tentacles rushing in front of her were cut in two.

The tentacles of the severed hands that fell from the ground kept churning and twisting on the floor, and blood was dripping down from above.

The one who emitted the white light was the strong man who had been following her. He took out a long knife in his hand at some point, and cut off the tentacles that came from the attack.

"Hurry up." The strong man used his long knife to cut off the tentacles that were dragging Anjou's feet, and shouted at her.

Anjou watched the strong man's mouth open and close, although he didn't know what he was talking about, but he could guess based on the shape of his mouth.

Without any excuse, she forcibly kicked off the broken tentacles that were still on her feet, and rushed towards the metal gate.

She's just a mere bronze-level mage, and she doesn't have many spells, and even if she is useful, she has to keep a long enough distance to ensure that she casts spells.

It would be better to simply rush out of the metal gate and let the guards outside know what is going on here, and ask them to solve the problem here.

Her teacher, Angelia, had told her that if anything happened to her in the warehouse, she should report it to the people outside the door as soon as possible, and that they would be able to solve any danger.

"They are the strongest masters in the world, and no one can resist them."

That's what Angelia told her at the time, and although Anjou didn't really believe it, she desperately hoped that it was true.

Angelia rushed as she muttered a spell.

Although she couldn't pronounce it, her throat was still vibrating, mobilizing the mana inside her body, quickly mixing with the power of the outside world, turning into a green point of light, enveloping her whole body.

This is the most basic buff spell "Swift", which doesn't require any other powerful spells at all, and what Anjou needs most right now is speed.

Everything should be done while the strong man behind him can still support him, and ask for help from the guards outside the door.

The strong man just accepted the adventurers hired by the Breeze Academy, and after countless battles, their kind of people also wanted to live a good life, and accepted the employment of some big forces while they were still a little strong.

However, the strong man himself wanted to have further ideas, but his qualifications were not enough to enroll, so in the end he thought of a way to enter the academy in the name of employment, and take advantage of his free time to learn all kinds of knowledge.

This time he escorted Anjou in, originally thinking that it was just an ordinary errand, but he didn't expect that an accident would suddenly break out here.

As an adventurer with a sense of responsibility, the strong man originally planned to escape for his life alone - after all, adventurers, it is instinct to seek good fortune and avoid evil, and saving life is engraved in his bones.

But somehow, the strong man stood in front of Anjou, and began to compete with these blood-colored tentacles that suddenly appeared.

"If I run alone, according to the identity of the little girl in Anjou, I'm afraid I won't be able to please me." The strong man came up with this idea when he was resisting the blood-colored tentacles, and it was obvious that he didn't actually stay for this reason just now.

The strong man himself has the strength of the silver level, and he can already become a lowest-level nobleman, but when facing these blood-colored tentacles, he realized that he seems to be really likely to be planted this time.

The strength of these blood-colored tentacles was extremely strong from the beginning, and he couldn't even hold the weapon in his hand.

And as the blood-colored tentacles appeared for longer and longer, the strength of the tentacles became stronger and stronger, and the strength became greater and greater, and after a few contacts, the bones of the strong man's hands were about to be shattered.

Fortunately, the weapon was still effective in preventing the attack of the blood-colored tentacles, and the strong man desperately entangled with it, and the corners of his eyes were still glancing at Anjou, hoping that she would be able to escape from this warehouse and call for help.

But the next moment, the strong man froze, and then was hit by a blood-colored tentacle, and fell backwards with blood.

"Why didn't you run!" With such an angry thought, the strong man passed out.

But in Anjou's eyes, she was already desperately running forward, but the metal gate in front of her seemed to be going backwards, and she couldn't get close at all.

She frantically moved forward, shouted frantically, but still seemed to have no effect, until she fell to the ground heavily, and then she found out in horror that her feet were entangled with bloody tentacles again.

Moreover, Anjou was desperate to find that he didn't seem to have run a few steps at all, and was still next to the altar.

Suddenly, a wave of despair welled up in Anjou's heart.

"Am I going to die here today?"

She couldn't hold back the fear in her heart and began to sob.

Ignoring it, the blood-colored tentacles scrambled towards Anjou, quickly rolling her up and dragging her towards the altar.

The same is true of the strong man, dozens of tentacles dragging heavy prey, under the dark red light, with an eerie feeling.

Blood began to drip from Anjou's mouth, and the tentacles that wrapped around her body did not care about her weak body, and the force of the roll was extremely strong.

Seeing himself getting closer and closer to the altar, the desire to survive still made Anjou struggle desperately.

The blood-colored tentacles seemed to be annoyed by Anjou's movements, and a huge force began to pass through the tentacles, about to completely cut off her body.

"Oh, you can't let her die."

A word with an inexplicable smell suddenly sounded, and the strong man and Anjou, who were awakened by the pain, looked at the guards who suddenly appeared, and their hearts were suddenly filled with joy.

In the next instant, a sky-high fire erupted on the altar, burning all the tentacles in an instant.
