Chapter 277: Sea Parkour

"Shivani, we better prepare. The firestorm might come at night or in the afternoon."

The firestorm has been going on for ten years. Initially, it was occurring yearly, but the frequency shortened to once or twice a month.

At the reminder, the face of the champion came to Shivani’s mind, and the island suddenly rumbled. The priestess and the nymphs were too familiar with the phenomenon, and their faces paled, especially Shillo.

"The Champion is in danger. Sister Shivani, we better save her!" Shillo anxiously said.

Shivani instantly ran outside. Shillo followed, as well as some of the nymphs, to the edge of the ridge and saw the restless sea, a sign of the coming disaster.

And every time it happens, a part of the island is submerged.

Not long after three seconds, they saw the sea shoot a pillar of fire into the sky. Followed by another and another in the distance...

The scenery in front of them looks like the end of the world.

"It’s too late. Go inside; I’ll stay and wait for the champion," Shivani said.

"It’s bad, Shivani; some cave rooms collapsed, and that hot water is flowing into the new shelter. We can’t stay inside and quickly escaped." Numerous nymphs scrambled outside.

The ice field, due to Li Chunhua’s skill, had yet to melt, and the nymphs found themselves cooling down once they stepped on it. They gathered on that spot.

Shivani had yet to turn around when they heard a loud explosion. The cave was destroyed by a pillar of fire, and some of the magma splashed on the nymphs, scalding them.

Another one on their west, then on the east.

Shivani looked below, only to see the shore was already gone and the water level was slowly rising.

They’re going to die.

Every nymph had the same thought as their eyes reflected the fire.

"Everyone, gather!" The nymphs huddled near the priestess.

Shivani instantly conjured up the water barrier in a nick of time before the stream of magma rained down on them.

White steam rose when the magma touched the barrier.

The barrier continued to thinn with all the magma pouring for the span of five minutes.

Shivani panted.

Shillo at the side could sense her sister’s exhaustion. She raised her hands and shot a stream of water to patch the thin parts, but her power alone couldn’t turn the tide.

"Come on, everyone. Let’s all do our best to fight until the end."

All nymphs numbering up to 120 raised their arms, and streams of water with different thicknesses were released.

"For the Sea Kingdom!"

"For the Sea Kingdom!"

"For the Sea Kingdom!"

The burden on Shivani’s shoulders lessened as everyone drained their mana.

The battle for their survival extended to ten more minutes, and some couldn’t hold on and lay tired. The ice under their feet showed signs of melting.

The eyes of the nymphs had traces of despair.

Shillo and Shivani didn’t let their hands down until the very end.

When their mana bars dropped to zero, the water barrier vanished, and a tongue of flames and lava descended.

Out of the blue, the red sky thundered and trickles of rain drizzled on them, and every nymph was renewed with energy. They were able to cast another water barrier, and it was stronger than before.

"It’s the Champion." Shillo and Shivani gazed at the sea and saw a giant clam rushing towards their island, and the Champion was on top, releasing gusts of wind behind the clam. "We must hold on until the champion arrives!"

"Yes." Renewed hope filled everyone.

Li Chunhua increased the output of her qi to strengthen the force of the wind until the King Clam was always flying on water when she saw the situation of the nymph was totally bad.

The King Clam: This is so effing cool!

The two reached the island in three minutes.

Li Chunhua parked her jet ski, King Clam, and built stairs made of ice. "Come down."

The King Clam opened its mouth to receive its Uber customers.

Shivani and Shillo heard the shout and ordered everyone to evacuate.

Those at the edge were the ones to jump. They slid down the ice stairs and entered the stinky evacuation center.

Shivani and Shillo slowly retreated while maintaining the barrier, and when they reached the edge, Shillo went down first before the priestess.

"I thank you, Champion, on behalf of my clansmen." The priestess gave a salute that was only given to their king to Li Chunhua.

"The danger isn’t over yet," Li Chunhua said as she looked at the pillars of fire all over the sea. Each was enough to make a hotpot of them.

The King Clam closed its mouth and swam away.

Less than 10 seconds later, as if there were a volcano, the island exploded.

The bangle: That was so close.

The King Clam: It’s getting hotter. The firestorm this time is the worst of all.

With the nymphs saved, the next thing was preventing getting caught by the fire storm.

Li Chunhua used her free hand to cover the clam with a layer of ice before starting her sea parkour. Winds burst, pushing the heavy clam in a safe direction at a full throttle speed of 20 meters per second.

The gap between each pillar was only about twenty to forty feet apart, and they were still emerging every minute.

The clam’s diameter was more than 20 feet. Li Chunhua swiftly shuttled between.

Boom-

Boom-

The adrenaline rush fueled the King Clam as they avoided narrow, safe waterways, with Li Chunhua boosting its speed and upgrading its defense.

The sea creatures who were also fleeing from being roasted saw a giant clam jumping, skipping, tilting to the side, twirling around, and making other impossible moves, evading the columns.

The groups of fish: (⊙_(⊙_⊙)_⊙) Is that even possible?

The nymphs inside the clam were also affected, and they bumped into each other and onto the walls.

Lava splashes, melting a layer of ice serving as armor for the clan. Li Chunhua immediately repaired them.

Li Chunhua continued to use her qi to make ice and wind spells. When she saw a lot of fish with less heat resistance, she had a hard time.

She made small floating icebergs they could temporarily leap onto.

The fish sensed the cool temperature and sought refuge in it. They may have mutated, but the intensity of the firestorm was too much.

The fish flailing on the iceberg opened their mouths.

The King Clam: They’re thanking you.

Li Chunhua looked past her shoulders and saw the fish waving their fins at her.

On the way, she made numerous icebergs, and because it was at SS level, it didn’t easily melt unless the fire was at SS level.

The parkour continued for a span of two hours. After that, the columns disappeared and the sea regained its calm, but the destruction it left was evident.

Li Chunhua saw a lot of loot floating around. For some reason, she couldn’t bring herself to be happy, but she still hooked them using the strings of her qi.

The King Clam opened its mouth, and the nymphs looked at the red sea. They couldn’t see any islands anymore.

"We have no home."

They may have been rescued, but what happens afterwards?

The King Clam: What are your plans?

Li Chunhua stopped and suggested to the nymphs, "Well, how about building a battle ship?"

"Champion, that’s impossible," Shivani interjected.

The King Clam: She’s right. You can’t do that without any resources. Additionally, the next firestorm will only destroy it.

Three hours later, when it was sunset, the clams and the nymphs gawked at the large ice ship.

(Pic in the comment section.)

Li Chunhua threw the ropes down. "Climb up. This ship still needs decorating." Magic towers, cannons, ballistas, trebuchets, houses, a barrier array like the one she installed on her territory.

She might not be able to save this world, but before finishing her mission, she will help them as much as she can.
