474 Devastating the City (1/2)

”Sorry, I have to return immediately. Let's talk again if there's a chance in the future,” Lucas said to Zhou Wen.

”Let's go together.” Zhou Wen found the matter odd as well.

Medusa was inside the palace. Someone had entered the palace. If anyone touched her, she would transform into a demoness and attack humans.

However, after entering the palace, the door would automatically close. Medusa should not have escaped from the palace. At least she had never run out in-game.

Could it be the thief's doing? Zhou Wen felt that something was amiss no matter how he thought about it. Perhaps it had something to do with the thief.

”Alright.” Lucas didn't stand on ceremony with Zhou Wen as he urged the Tyrannosaurus Rex to run towards the city.

Before reaching the city, they saw crowds running towards them. Many people saw Lucas and were pleading for help. ”Lord Lucas, there's a dimensional creature destroying the city. Quickly go and take a look.”

Lucas asked for directions and immediately rode the Tyrannosaurus Rex against the human tide.

Not long after they entered the city, they saw that the bustling streets of the city were empty, but there were many stone statues. There were elders, children, and some animals.

They maintained all sorts of poses. Some ran for their lives in fear, while others fell to the ground. There was also a puppy who was peeing up a pole, but it had turned into a stone.

Many buildings had been destroyed and the city seemed to have become a world of ghosts.

When Zhou Wen saw the stone statues, he knew that it was Medusa's work. It was different from the stone statues on the door. Even if one didn't look into her eyes, one would still be petrified if they were seen by Medusa's petrifying eyes.

Lucas's expression changed drastically. He clearly recognized some of the petrified people.

A helicopter flew across the sky. Lucas hurriedly chased after the helicopter.

After turning two streets, they saw a young woman running ahead. Lucas chased after her and yelled, ”Barbara, what are you doing here?”

The young woman turned to look at Lucas and was instantly overjoyed. ”Lord Lucas, quickly go and take a look. Medusa is destroying the entire city. Other than you, no one can save this city.”

”Where is she? What exactly happened? How did Medusa escape from the palace?” Lucas asked.

”I don't know. After you sent the news, Lord Irjarr sent someone into the palace, but not long after, Medusa ran out. All the people and creatures that are seen by her eyes turn into stone statues. Even Companion Beasts are no exception. I wasn't petrified because of the protection given to me by a special Companion Beast,” Barbara said.

”Where is she?” Lucas asked.

”Alright.” Lucas put away the Tyrannosaurus before running in the direction that Barbara was pointing.

Barbara also followed, but when she saw that Zhou Wen was also running in that direction, she said to him, ”Why are you following us? Aren't you afraid of being petrified by Medusa? Hurry up and hide in an underground bomb shelter.”

”I'll go over and take a look to see if I can help.” Zhou Wen wasn't afraid of Medusa. Truth Listener could perfectly restrain Medusa's Eyes of Petrification, and the Demon Dragon True Body could barely contend with Medusa.
