Chapter 340 Sincerely Avad, Welcome Your Arrival_2
If it weren't for the righteous Brother Su rushing to help, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"What kind of creature is this Poison Insect, a Disaster Envoy?"
Arthur took a slight breath, his face showing fear as he stared at the body on the ground, its bizarre appearance with tentacles all over, chilling to the bone, "What kind of malicious and evil orphan would create such a creature!"
Although it bore some resemblance to the 'Fallen Angel' that Ansu had once summoned, it was far more sinister in degree.
Whoever created this hybrid would be stigmatized for eternity.
"It was all Milton's doing," Ansu said indignantly.
The Milton family...
Lister adjusted his glasses, a skeptical glint in his eyes, "Was there already a Milton family thirty thousand years ago?"
"Yes," Ansu nodded, his dark blue eyes holding no deceit, "That man was an ancestor of the Milton family, I've seen him, a very handsome Magician."
"The Golden Kite Royal Family was in cahoots with the Esoteric Sect during the Era of Chaos?" Lister exclaimed, overwhelmed by such ancient secrets.
"So, Brother Ansu, how did you escape the Poison Insect of the Milton family and successfully rescue us?" Arthur asked curiously. As a Sun Knight, he was intrigued by such a thrilling story.
"Hmph."
As soon as the topic was brought up, Ansu was no longer sleepy.
"It was a terrifying blood battle. My dear brothers, in order to... cough, to rescue you, I fought day and night in the Chaotic City, never forgetting my mission."
Ansu's voice held lamentation, the moonlight like silver frost covering his profile, casting the youth in a saintly and picturesque light.
"The whole story started with a mosquito..."
Five minutes later, Yue'er slowly climbed to the treetops outside the window.
"So you're saying, it was because Count Dracula, a Vampire, fell in love with a freshly hatched mosquito larva in a forbidden romance between species?"
"A cool and dashing uncle from the Evil Clan fell in love with a cute and naïve young girl, but the good times didn't last—after the mosquito larva went through complete metamorphosis, it turned into a fully grown mosquito and was cruelly abandoned by Count Dracula, who fancied young girls. It was then that a Gula Envoy from the Rainbow Elves appeared, insisting that the metamorphosis was a gender change, and wanted to include the young girl in his harem..."
"And at that moment, Mr. Deep Sea of the Sea people also took a liking to her... and the ex-scumbag Count Dracula had an epiphany, racing to the crematorium to win back his wife?"
"A shootout was triggered by three powerful forces vying for one mosquito?"
After hearing Ansu's tale, Lister gasped, impressed by the love story of the Chaotic City, which was even more intricate than the plots of romance novels!
"It's so touching," Arthur said, his eyes brimming with tears.
Even the most domineering CEO falling for an eighty-year-old lady paled in comparison.
"And at the end of this story..."
Ansu's tone also turned to one of regret.
"That mosquito was captured by the evil Milton family, trained, corrupted, physically altered, and used as a breeding ground; all these Disaster Envoys in the city are its offspring."
"Holy cow," Arthur's face instantly turned troubled.
While Lister pushed up his glasses, his eyes hardened with interest.
Neither of them doubted the veracity of Ansu's story, for this was the Era of Chaos.
Anything chaotic that happened in the Era of Chaos was normal.
After this bitter and sad love story, both Lister and Arthur were full of emotion.
"And I humbled myself to hide in the Chaotic City, toiling tirelessly, enduring hardship, working three jobs just to scrape together a little money to have the chance to rescue my dear brothers."
Ansu sighed lightly, his eyes filled with weariness and world-weariness as if he were a youth worn down by life. He wasn't lying this time, since he almost believed it himself; naturally, it couldn't be called lying.
Lister and Arthur looked at Ansu with admiration; surviving in such a divine realm was truly hard for Brother Su.
They realized they had wanted to turn Brother Su into a Little Nanliang.
For the first time, Lister and Arthur were overwhelmed with a deep sense of guilt.
"Brother Ansu, actually we..."
Before they could voice their guilt, Lister and Arthur sensed something unusual.
Just then, a faint vibration came from outside the door!
They could sense countless chaotic auras approaching rapidly, accompanied by rolling thunder, making the entire street tremble.
Those were the dull footsteps of Alchemy Iron Horses on the street, while shadows flitted across the windows, making Lister and Arthur instantly alert, their eyes widening as they intensified their senses; the alley had been surrounded by iron cavalry.
Rain began to fall outside, gently and persistently, drowning out the sound of the horses' hooves in the ocean of monsoon.
"Shh," Lister said, "There's someone outside."
"But the people of Chaotic City should all be dead by now..." Arthur blinked.
"People from the City Administration Bureau." Lister peered through the crack in the door at the crest on the Alchemical Carriage, "It's people from the Holy City!"
The inhabitants of Chaotic City were gone; anyone arriving now could only be an envoy from the Holy City.
Were they pursuers?
Were they City Administration Bureau agents here for Brother Su?
Their expressions hardened; Brother Su had suffered so much for them, they would risk their own lives to help him escape if necessary.
The unsettling sounds grew closer until they finally stopped outside the small dark room. In the prolonged silence, the envoy from the Holy City outside slowly spoke,
