Runemaster in the Last Days - Chapter 97

Chapter 97: The Crack
Now, the appearance of these magic beasts could be said to be another source for Riya to obtain useful liquid to make magic scrolls.

Well, their bloods.

But if it was already mixed like this, Riya was also unwilling to use it. After all, the blood would have been contaminated with dust and other particles. To use it, she would have to clean it first.

That would take too much time.

And effort.

Slash! Slash!

Riya watched as several more magic beasts rushed towards the formation above and tilted her head. It seemed that there were still so many magic beasts below. How about if she cleaned it all up first?

Grabbing one of the dead magic beast that was about to fall, Riya took the blood out and then used her mana to form rune circle in front of her.

‘Explosion.’

With a smile, Riya let the runes fall down along with the magic beast’s corpse.

Swish! BANG!

Loud explosion sounded far below. With this explosion, many magic beasts that planned to go out halted in their footsteps while some others directly died under the explosion.

Splash!

Landing on the pool of blood below, Riya looked at the large number of magic beasts’ corpse around her and nodded. She urged them to enter her world in a secluded corner.

Even though she couldn’t really use them directly, using these magic beasts as nutrients for her world was still alright.

With a wave of her hand, the place was clean.

If not for the fact that there were still faint pool of blood on the ground, no one would think that there used to be mountains of magic beasts corpses here.

“Hmm, there are still so many of them.”

Riya looked at the large number of magic beasts in front of her and chuckled. Her hand raised and several magic runes were formed in the air simultaneously. This was one of the advantage of a rune master, which was dual spells.

Other people needed to cast their spells through words, which meant that they could only use one spell at one time.

But rune master only needed to draw the runes in the air.

As long as they could practice their left and right hand to make different runes at the same time, they would be able to cast two spells at the same time.

Of course, some capable mages still could do dual spells.

But one of the spells needed to be the instant spell that they didn’t need words to make. Otherwise, it would be nothing more than pipe dream for them to cast two different spells simultaneously.

Bang! Swish! Bang!

These magic beasts rushed forward but before they could get close, they were pierced by mana arrows or got blasted back. On the occasion when they managed to get close, their attack would be blocked by a shield.

*roar!*

These magic beasts were angry and continued to rush forward.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

…

Long distance away, The Taylor Family

The earthquake basically destroyed many places all over the world. In City A alone, there were only some buildings of high quality still remained intact until the end.

The Taylor Family still hadn’t solved their problems of the mess that Mrs. Taylor created. Because Samuel made a move, it could be said that the Taylor Family was now facing difficulties.

They were exhausting their energy to take care of this matter.

When the earthquake strike, they were caught unprepared.

And then chaos ensued.

Countless people were fighting for the sake of resources with every single one of them trying their best to survive. Once there was food, it was estimated that there would be some fights between these survivors.

They were selfish.

And no one knew how big the earthquake is.

It has been a few days.

Bang!

“Mom… I need to go to the hospital.” Ciera’s face was pale. It has been a few days since the last time she has gone to the hospital to wash her blood. Because of this, her current situation was not very optimistic right now.

But in this situation, how could she go?

“Baby, just drink the medicine first, ok?” Mrs. Taylor felt distressed and rubbed her daughter’s head carefully. “We can’t go to the hospital now, but there are still medicine left at home.”

“But it’s not enough.” Ciera frowned.

“The military are here. We can go to the base,” Mr. Taylor said and looked at his family with a frown. As the man, he was the head of the family and Mr. Taylor was trying his best to take care of his family.

Ciera needed immediate medication for her situation.

When thinking about this matter, Mr. Taylor felt regret that he didn’t move Riya any faster. If it was not because his business trouble was increasing a lot, he would have more time to come and ask Riya once more.

As for that incident?

Mrs. Taylor’s family had been cleaning it up. Otherwise, Mr. Taylor would be so busy that he couldn’t sleep at night.

If Ciera had already transplanted Riya’s kidney, then today’s situation would not have happened. Ciera would be in full health and there was no need for Mr. Taylor to worry about his daughter so much.

“Dad, where are we going?” Cero asked while he patted his stomach. His figure was a bit chubby because he ate a lot. The earthquake has only happened a few days ago and their family still have more than enough food.

Moreover, there were many people under Mr. Taylor and Mrs. Taylor to protect their safety. Unless they went out on their own without anyone’s protection, they should be fine for the time being.

“The Business District’s Base,” Mr. Taylor replied. “It’s made by a few rich people who gathered together.”

“…What kind of base is that?” Mrs. Taylor frowned.

“The official base is a bit too far from our place, so it’s dangerous to go,” Mr. Taylor explained with bitter look.
