Chapter 250: Chapter 124 Survived_1

A splendid golden light illuminated the entire street. Watching the Cowardly Knight using healing skills more proficiently than a Priest, Reckless Knight Hai Jifeng’s lips twitched. The Cowardly Knight immediately cast an Archangel’s Embrace on the disciple almost as soon as he possibly could.

The attack had come out of nowhere. The enemy reacted quickly, seeming to sense their arrival and consequently activating their arcane equipment to escape.

Long Dangdang anxiously observed his brother in his arms, feeling his changes. With the aid of Archangel’s Embrace, the fluctuations in Long Kongkong’s life force settled down quickly and his condition visibly recovered. Only then did Long Dangdang breathe a slight sigh of relief.

When he sensed that his brother was in danger, he was filled with regret. Why did he have to leave in such a hurry! He should have waited for his brother, even waiting outside a rib shop would have been fine!

While maintaining the effects of Archangel’s Embrace, Na Ye performed a physical check on Long Kongkong. Multiple fractures all over his body, particularly on both arms, had swiftly healed under the Archangel’s Embrace. After all, this was a 9th Rank healing magic, using it to treat his level of injuries was an overkill. He was more concerned about any potential damage to Long Kongkong’s spirit, but upon examination, he found that his mental spirit ocean was intact, and he had not suffered any significant trauma.

The Sky Devouring Rodent sat somewhat sulkily to the side, its small eyes sparkling, seemingly deep in thought.

It was not until the effect of Archangel’s Embrace was about to disappear that Long Kongkong exhaled deeply, waking up from unconsciousness.

As soon as he woke, he cried out without thinking, "I’m dead, I’m dead!" Before slowly opening his eyes and looking somewhat bewilderedly at the people in front of him. When his gaze focused on Long Dangdang, he blinked and finally registered his surroundings.

He pointed at Long Dangdang and then at himself, "I’m not dead?"

Long Dangdang hummed in affirmation, nodding his head.

Long Kongkong was overjoyed, sitting up at once. Upon seeing Hai Jifeng and Na Ye by his side, he excitedly said, "I didn’t die! Fantastic, hahaha! Is this what they mean by ’A bad penny always turns up’? How wonderful!"

"Wonderful, my foot." Na Ye couldn’t help but slap him when he saw his cheeky demeanor after surviving such a dangerous ordeal. But Long Dangdang intercepted it with his head, blocking the blow for his brother.

Startled, Na Ye pulled his hand back and said, "Get up, it’s over. Tell us exactly what happened."

Only then did Long Dangdang help Long Kongkong up.

As if remembering something, Long Kongkong looked around and then his gaze landed on the large rat. "Wait a minute!"

While speaking, he walked over to the Sky Devouring Rodent and threw his arms around it in a big hug.

The Sky Devouring Rodent originally wanted to dodge, but considering the presence of two 9th Rank powerful experts, it eventually closed its eyes and bore the hug. Then, it heard Long Kongkong whispering in its ear, "Thanks, brother."

The Sky Devouring Rodent was taken aback, opening its eyes, a strange feeling emerging in its heart. It, the Sky Devouring Emperor, was used to people fearing him, scared of being devoured by it. This was the first time anyone had ever thanked it. For a moment, it was dazed.

Long Kongkong hugged it tighter, squishing its plump body slightly out of shape. He understood clearly that if the Sky Devouring Rodent hadn’t intervened at critical moments, saving him and resolving at least two potentially fatal crises, he wouldn’t have survived until his brother and teachers arrived. The Sky Devouring Rodent could be considered his lifesaver! Any initial rejection he had towards the rat had disappeared without a trace.

Without being asked by Long Dangdang and the others, Long Kongkong started narrating everything that had happened vividly.

Listening to him, Na Ye and Hai Jifeng’s expressions grew serious.

"That was really close! I thought I was going to die. Teacher, what exactly are high-level wraiths? Is it a kind of wraith entity? She claimed to be an undead. She seemed very hostile towards us humans. Except for a slightly paler complexion, she looked just like us and was even quite pretty."

Hearing Long Kongkong’s questions, Na Ye solemnly answered, "High-level wraiths are indeed a kind of wraith entity. In fact, after launching several Wraith Floods, the wraith entities have established their own kingdom. Hidden behind the ordinary wraith entities are these high-level wraiths. They not only possess powerful abilities but also intelligence on par with us humans. They are a group of beings extremely hostile to humans and pose our greatest threat."

He paused before continuing, "Speaking of these high-level wraiths, many are indeed hapless individuals. They died with grievances, hence their spirits were steeped in resentment, turning them into natural vengeful spirits. After the resurrection of these powerful wraiths, they have the potential to evolve into high-level wraiths. They can be considered half human, half wraith, and because we can’t really study them, it’s unclear whether they can still be considered humans. But what’s undeniable is that these resurrected high-level wraiths bear extreme hatred towards humans. They’d rather see humanity destroyed. They are even more dangerous than ordinary wraith entities, and their growth is at least as good as humans, far better than ordinary wraiths. They can be said to have the advantages of both wraith entities and humans. Do you know how you exposed your identity as a reserve Sacred Legate? Didn’t you know you’re supposed to keep your identity a secret? You’re still weak right now; you’ve clearly attracted unwanted attention."
