Chapter 110: Anger!

Time goes back a few minutes, and just like the Iron Thumb, Ethan easily defeated the second and third thumbs.

Only the knight with the shotgun was somewhat interesting, but that was all it was.

From the moment he held his gun towards him, he had already forfeited his life.

Now throwing away the head of the third finger, Ethan looked towards his left with a hint of confusion on his face.

"Weren’t we meant to take them one at a time? Why are there over ten mana signatures over there?"

"Also, isn’t his circle... why is it getting so faint?"

Running as fast as he could with his Air Walk, Ethan felt something was wrong.

As he was about to meet up with Viktor, under his mana sense, he could see Viktor’s circle rapidly weakening.

A situation that should only happen if his mana was depleting.

"Shit, don’t tell me the fourth and fifth fingers ganged up against him!"

"Damn it! If anything happens to Grandpa Viktor, then this shelter as a whole won’t be safe!"

Cursing angrily, Ethan once again increased his speed.

No matter what, Viktor absolutely could not die.

BOOM!

Just as he was trying to calm his anger, in the direction where Viktor was fighting, a huge explosion occurred, causing his face to drop.

’Oh no! Don’t tell me I’m too late!’

..........

Floating in the sky, Ethan soon arrived at the battle site.

Ethan’s expression turned solemn, for in front of him was pure destruction.

Along with the heavy use of the principles of density, that was all Ethan could sense: just pure destruction.

In front of him, every single blade of grass, rock, insect, everything was gone, vaporized, leaving a crater several meters deep.

In the middle of that crater, he could see it.

Viktor, whose shirt and mask were broken under the attack, his right arm from the elbow down completely gone, bleeding continuously into the destroyed soil.

Seeing this, Ethan instantly acted.

’Swoosh!’

Swooping down into the pit, he instantly froze Viktor’s arm, stopping the immediate bleeding.

At the same time, he tried to apply his healing spell. Unfortunately, it was still low-level as he hadn’t taught anyone to receive feedback.

The only thing it did was slightly add color back to Viktor’s chest.

Even then, Viktor was still in critical condition.

"Calm down, Ethan. At least he’s still alive. As long as he’s alive, then there’s still hope."

Calming down, he remembered he still had a blind box in his system storage.

Perhaps if he used it now, he could get something to save Viktor and potentially restore his arm.

After all, for a spearman, the loss of an arm was worse than killing him.

’Damn it, Helios! Even if you’re not here, even in this life, if it isn’t you, it’s your subordinates making things hard for me!’

’Once you return to this shelter, I promise I will make you experience a fate worse than death!’

Anger swelling up within his chest, Ethan felt ashamed.

If he hadn’t agreed to this stupid bet, then perhaps this wouldn’t have happened.

With the two of them together, they would have been able to take out the so-called Five Fingers easily.

Yet even though he was the Patriarch, the leader, he had agreed to his subordinate’s bet and put his life in danger, costing him his hand in the process.

Right now, Ethan was angry at himself, angry at Helios, angry at the Crimson Flame Dominion.

All the frustrations that he took this journey to escape seemed to resurface at this moment.

’Calm down, Ethan. Let’s save Viktor first.’

Thinking of this, Ethan was about to take out the blind box.

However, at that moment, he suddenly got a notification from the expedition chat group.

[Expedition Chat Group]

[Cupid’s Nightmare]: Patriarch, Viktor, Aria, and I are inside the base, and I just got news that Helios is at the entrance. Everyone is ordered to come out of their homes and line up to greet him.

[Cupid’s Nightmare]: Also, I heard an explosion. What was that? Are you guys okay? Should I come and help?

Sending her message, Maya’s concern could be heard through the Magic Web.

However, as Ethan heard this, his eyes just remained hollow.

No longer as emotional as before, he had unknowingly gotten so angry that he had become completely rational.

Staring calmly at her texts, after a few seconds, he calmly replied.

[The First Mage]: Grandma Maya, come to the largest building in the center of the shelter. You should see a giant crater. Grandpa Viktor is there in critical condition.

[The First Mage]: Find a way to heal him. This is a big shelter; there should be some healers among their Awakeners. I don’t care if you have to threaten every Awakener; use your mana sense and find them.

[The First Mage]: Also take all the crystals in the building. You should be able to find them. As for me, I’m going to deal with Helios. If I don’t vent my anger on someone, I’m afraid I’ll end up destroying this shelter.

Not waiting for Maya to reply, Ethan created a thin layer of ice to protect Viktor’s body while leaving some holes for him to breathe before Air walked towards the shelter entrance.

No matter what, even if he was actually D-rank as Aria said, he was going to kill Helios to vent his anger.

...........

[Crimson Flame Dominion, Blazing Flame Shelter]

Just like Maya had said, Helios had returned.

He stood at six feet tall, wearing a black T-shirt and brown trousers, with his slick blond hair combed backwards, a diamond wristwatch on his wrist, and black suede shoes.

He looked completely different from the unkempt inhabitants of his shelter.

Now standing in front of his shelter, with unprecedented pride, he looked at the hundreds of shelter inhabitants kneeling before him at the gate.

"Welcome, my people! Your god has returned!"

As he said this, behind him, a cart was being pulled by ten shirtless men, carrying tens of monster and mana zombie cores.

"Now, who among you will help me test the strength of my fla—!"

Just before he could finish his sentence, a loud shout resounded through the skies.

"Helios! Die for me!"

Along with it, a ten-meter-long ice spear descended from the sky.

At this moment, with his anger reaching its peak, Ethan had arrived!
