"Riku, Couronne, monsters have appeared. A huge monster is attacking!"
A man ran out, panting heavily, said loudly, announcing the arrival of disaster.
This sudden turn of events stunned Riku and Couronne, as well as the remaining human survivors.
"What?" Riku couldn't believe it.
They had been so careful. How did they attract the attention those guys?
No, the question isn't this. Now we have to think about how to save the maximum number of humans, using the lowest price.
Thinking of saving more and sacrificing less made Riku feel sick but he couldn't think of a better solution.
Riku immediately ran to the hidden watch tower, the place which was used to observe enemy attacks and crisis like the current ones.
"You two, I am sorry but we are facing emergency! We may not be able to entertain you!" Couronne apologised to Xiao Feng and Xun'er.
As smart as she was, Couronne had already judged that Xiao Feng and Xun'er weren't simple. But the current situation didn't allow her to think much.
"It's okay, people are more important." Xiao Feng shook his head.
Couronne left after greeting him.
She couldn't stay for long as she needed to calm the crowd and manage evacuation.
It's not the first time, they have been attacked, they have already learned how to survive.
Distract, sacrifice, hide, and resettle.
The way of human survival is to hide and keep hiding.
As I said, humans don't exist. Only when they don't exist will other species not pay attention to them.
"This sudden attack..."
Xiao Feng didn't remember such an event happening in the movie.
Did his arrival affect the world so quickly? This is unexpected.
No matter which species attacks the humans at this juncture, humans will be directly wiped out.
But when he looked at the Humans, who were facing the terror of death, but didn't show panic and remained calm and even thought about resistance and escape, he couldn't help but admire them.
Compared to the greedy and evil guys in the Black bullet world, they were completely different.
The courage of humans in this world, was worthy of praise and recognition.
Xun'er's heart was also in Chaos. Although she had only seen the so called monsters once and didn't know much about them, just from the weak look of humans, she could tell that humans here were no match for them.
She wanted to help them.
"Brother Xiao Feng..." She tugged on his sleeve and her deep eyes looked at him.
Boom boom boom.
The faint sound of the ground shaking made Riku's eyes widen.
What he saw was a giant snake-shaped beast with a length of several tens of meters. It was moving towards the settlement of mankind from a distance.
Not only that, there were also dozens of small monsters that they encountered before. Those guys were following the snake and rushing toward the human settlement.
Let's not talk about the small ones, that snake alone was enligh to threaten their survival.
Previous attacks weren't so huge. They could barely survive before but now...
Facing dozens of monsters, Riku couldn't imagine a good way of survival without sacrificing large number of individuals.
Only by letting the monsters spend their time on eating, can the human race escape.
"William, gather the volunteers, it's time!" Riku's teeths clattered and his hands trembled but he finally closed his eyes and issued the order that sentenced others to death.
William was the man who previously informed Riku and Couronne about the attack.
When he heard Riku's words, there was resistance on his face.
"Riku, live for us!" Willian patted Riku on the back and said with a small grin, "I will gather the volunteers!"
"Damn it!" When William left, Riku slammed the ground.
After experiencing repeated test of human nature, he finally broke down.
Why were humans so weak?
Why did God create us but didn't give us power like other species?
Riku hated it, he hated the fact he was weak, he hated he had sacrifice others, just trying his best to survive.
When Riku cried, Couronne had just arranged the evacuation and come to find him.
"It's not the time to cry yet. Get a hold of yourself, you're our leader!" Couronne slapped him hard on the face first and said loudly.
The burst of pain brought him back to reality and Riku regained his sense.
He looked at the dark sky in the distance and said, "I am sorry Couronne. I am back to normal now."
"I think I know how to save everyone!"
Riku ran back, leaving Couronne stunned.
"If it's them, they can definitely do it!"
This was his thought while running. Riku ran, like never before.
When he found Xiao Feng, he was panting for breath. His legs were a bit weak but he firmly held onto Xiao Feng's shoulders, "Please, please save us! Please save the human race. I, I will do anything."
Watching Riku pant but insisting on speaking, Xiao Feng was silent.
Because he didn't get his response, Riku's heart became heavy.
"Can't you?"
Riku's eyes showed a lost look.
But then he laughed at his naivety in his heart.
They are superior species, it's good that they didn't harm humans, do you still expect them to save humans!
"Can!"
Just when Riku was desperate and thought he would have to make sacrifices again to survive, a sound like hope sounded in his ears.
When he looked up, he saw Xiao Feng looking at him.
"Riku, I admire your courage and bravery. I will deal with the one outside. There is no need to evacuate!" Xiao Feng admired Riku for willing to lower himself, to beg him, to save them.
Not every leader could lower his posture and beg others for help.
Compared to Rentaro, he preferred protagonist like Riku, a person like him, who could lead mankind out of this hellish world and even indirectly killed Artosh in the original work, was truly admirable.
If this was Type Moon world, Xiao Feng dared to guarantee that if Riku didn't wear the Crown then no Heroic Spirit would dare to wear the Crown.
The Crown here refers to Grand Heroic Spirits or also known as Crowned Heroic Spirits.
