I got an S-level talent in the apocalypse, and I will lead Blue Star to rise

Chapter 265 Clues

Wei Hanchuan tried his best to put on a kind expression.

"We come from Azure City. We encountered an accident on the way and got separated from Miss. We originally wanted to go into the city, but we found a burned-down village along the way."

To avoid being exposed, he continued to repeat what Ning Yun and the others had said.

"When we found you, we discovered you were still breathing, so we brought you back."

Upon hearing Wei Hanchuan's words, the man slowly began to lower his guard.

Come to think of it, he was on the verge of death when someone saved him.

Perhaps they are trustworthy.

Wei Hanchuan observed the man's expression and noticed that he seemed somewhat moved, so he asked.

"Actually, we encountered two burned-down villages before. What happened here?"

The man's expression immediately turned terrified as he recalled the scenes of the impending disaster.

Suddenly, he buried his face in his hands and burst into tears.

"It's a dragon! It's a dragon that destroyed our village!"

The group of people turned solemn upon hearing this; it turned out that there really was a dragon.

"Don't be afraid, speak slowly."

With Wei Hanchuan's comforting words, the man recounted his experience.

“My name is Toth. My home is in the village, but I work in the city. That day, I had a rare day off, so I bought some things in the city and wanted to go back to the village to visit.”

Motown wasn't far from the village, so Toth rented a car with someone and drove around slowly.

He has only one mother and younger siblings. The whole family depends on him to earn money to support them, besides farming.

Normally, Tote would probably walk home.

But he received a lot of tips this month, and shopping took up a lot of time, so he rented a car.

When Tote first arrived in the village, he was very happy.

The gifts he bought for his family were all well-received.

When the villagers saw Tote return, they all praised him for being so capable, able to work in the city and earn money.

Tote was originally only allowed two days of rest before having to return to the city on the second day.

But to his surprise, he received a message from his boss, telling him that something big had happened in the city and that his boss was going to take refuge there, so Tote didn't need to return to the city.

Thoth was just a minor character and didn't know what had happened.

While he was still feeling down about losing his job, news suddenly came from Motown.

A silver dragon attacked Mo City, and those who couldn't get into the city in time were burned to death!
The message was delivered by a survivor. He hadn't even reached the city when he saw someone running towards him from afar, having lost one of his shoes.

"The dragon is killing people! Run!"

The man immediately turned and ran back to the village, where he told the villagers what had happened.

Toth wanted to escape with his family, but his mother had difficulty walking and didn't want to be a burden to her children.

If he were allowed to lead his younger siblings to escape, at least they could reach the nearby mountains and escape the evil dragon.

Thoth did not listen to his mother and insisted on taking her with him when he left.

Unexpectedly, the evil dragon patrolled around Mo City, and whenever it encountered someone trying to escape, it would burn them to ashes.

With no other option, Thoth took his mother back to their original village and moved to the cellar, hoping to escape the dragon's attack.

The evil dragon seems to have a particular aversion to humans; even in deserted villages, it will breathe fire and burn down all the houses.

Dragon breath is terrifying; it can burn almost anything to ashes.

Even when the Toth family was hiding in the cellar, they could feel the intense heat.

Even more surprisingly, flames spread from the entrance into the cellar.

At this point, the cellar was like an oven.

My mother, younger brother, and younger sister almost all choked to death.

Only Thoth, with his tenacious will to live, managed to hold on to his last breath and survive.

It was because the cellar entrance was burned down that Wei Hanchuan and the others were able to find such a hidden entrance.

If Wei Hanchuan had arrived a few hours later, perhaps Tote would have died too.

Recalling the tragic fate of his family, Toth was overwhelmed with grief. "My family, and the whole village, is there really no one left alive?"

Wei Hanchuan paused for a moment, then shook his head.

They searched the entire village, but almost everything had been burned to ashes.

Upon hearing the affirmative answer, Toth cried out in anguish.

Even though he knew the other person was just an NPC in the dungeon, seeing him in such pain made Wei Hanchuan's heart heavy.

After Tote calmed down, Wei Hanchuan asked a crucial question.

"What did that dragon look like in your memory?"

After a good cry, Toth's emotions actually calmed down considerably.

He was also very grateful to these benefactors.

But he couldn't answer that question.

"I'm sorry, we were hiding in the cellar when the dragon came, so we didn't see it."

When the dragon flew over, everyone was too busy dodging to have time to look closely.

Having received no useful information, Wei Hanchuan grew somewhat anxious.

Seeing his benefactor like this, Toth felt a little embarrassed.

He thought back carefully, "However, my younger brother was brave enough to peek through the crack in the cellar entrance, and he said at the time..."

Thoth's brother, always daring, turned around and climbed the ladder while everyone else hid in the cellar, peering out through a small opening.

His mother was afraid that he would be discovered by the evil dragon and tried to pull him down, but unfortunately, she had bad legs.

Thoth was so angry he wanted to curse, but he didn't dare to make a sound. He could only climb the ladder and forcefully pull his brother down.

Only after landing did Thoth lower his voice and reprimand him.

"Do you want to die? You dare to look outside!"

There was fear in my younger brother's eyes, but also excitement.

"That dragon is so white, and its eyes are as red as lanterns!"

"Yes!" Thoth remembered; although he hadn't seen it, his brother had.

"My brother said that the dragon's body was white and its eyes were red!"

Wei Hanchuan's expression hardened. "Are you sure?"

Thoth thought for a moment, "This is what my brother said, so it shouldn't be wrong. Although he's mischievous, he never lies."

Wei Hanchuan recalled the information he had heard from Ji Jia and sent Tote's statement to the team channel.

Could it be that there are two dragons in this instance?

At this moment, Ning Yun also made a similar guess.

"The evil dragon in the painting, and the evil dragon that attacked the village, are both red-eyed dragons."

"The dragon that attacked Mo City was a silver-eyed dragon."

Ning Yun touched her chin. "How strange, what is the purpose of these two dragons?"

Perhaps, to find the answer to this matter, we need to get it from the city lord.

Fortunately, the city lord hosted a banquet for Ning Yun that evening.

The banquet was attended not only by the city lord, but also by other people from Mo City.

With more people and more opinions, we should be able to gather more information.

"Knock knock," came the knocking at the door; it was Willis, the butler.

"Miss Ning Yun, the banquet is about to begin. Are you ready?"

Chen Yuanyuan went to open the door. "Butler Willis, please wait a moment, we'll be right down."

Ning Yun took a deep breath. "Okay, I'll go down now."

She took a deep breath, not out of nervousness, but because the dress was so tight she could hardly breathe.

Before even going downstairs, when Ning Yun reached the top of the stairs, she saw the scene before her and had only one thought.

"A lot of people."
