The four Chosen Ones were filled with unwillingness yet it didn't help their situation .
Death was coming for them .
When Kieran finally stopped his reckless charging and turned around, the four Chosen Ones already disintegrated into light particles .
Their ending wasn't any different from other common players yet the rewards from them were outstanding . The honor kill notifications showed that the four Chosen Ones provided Kieran with a hefty 200,000 Points and 30 Skill Points .
Kieran immediately thought of their rooms and what valuables they held .
The stingy Scrooge soul inside Kieran was growing restless .
Fortunately, his mind was still clear about his priorities .
He looked up to the silent and dark spot further ahead .
Small Path Square .
Compared to the battle raging place he was at, Small Path Square was like a retreat from the battle ruined area .
Though in Kieran's eyes, that place looked more like a bloodthirsty beast opening its mouth and waiting for its prey to walk into its stomach . It might be even more dangerous than where he was now .
Through Fire Raven's sight, Kieran knew what was inside Small Path Square .
Fuu!
Kieran spat out a heavy breath . He had to go forward because Lawless and that curse dispeller were inside there .
However, Kieran thought he should proceed with his own methods .
Right at the next moment, the twin-headed giant snake materialized from its mirage form and ran rampant across Small Path Square .
. . .
Donaville Street wasn't that eye-catching among the big city but it was connected to many convenient and intertwining smaller routes, which were the players' favorite .
All the smaller paths and routes would eventually lead towards the center of Donaville Street, Small Path Square .
Small Path Square was what the players named the place . It was quite a decent place initially, having a fountain in the middle and a couple big trees and benches around, it looked exactly like a typical small square .
Though, Small Path Square was quiet at night .
The mild night breeze blew and shook the leaves on the big trees under the moonlight . There was a fountain that had ceased to function and a pond around it that had ripples over its surface .
Yet such a pleasant night view was crushed when that giant twin-headed snake rammed into Small Path Square .
The whole square was boiling at that moment .
Fua, Fuaa Fuaaa!
The ground, benches, trees, fountain, and even the pond around the fountain were swelling like pellets, similar to a goosebump on human's skin during the cold season .
The swelled pellets though were much more condensed than human goosebumps .
All the swelled pellets were pushing each other, squeezing each other until there wasn't any place left for the pellets to form; one of them flew up in the air .
Inside the pellet were wings, a sharp beak, and multiple legs of an insect .
A flying insect!
Just like the domino puzzle, the moment one of the insects flew up, the rest followed up one after another .
Wuung!
Their wings vibrated even louder than the typhoon, a big area of black, disgusting insects swarmed the sky .
The swarm of insects covered the sky like a giant dark cloud as they flew towards the giant twin-headed snake .
What was left of Small Path Square was nothing but ruins . The pleasant scene from before was no longer visible as if everything was eaten by the insects except the rocks!
"Sh*t!"
Ramont gasped when he saw what happened to Small Path Square .
Raven's face even turned heavier and uglier than before . As one of the Chosen Ones, Raven knew how high the controller's Spirit attribute needed to be in order to control such a huge amount of insects .
The outcome was beyond his imagination but he didn't back off . Just like how Lawless helped him before, Raven wanted to help Lawless back this time .
It wouldn't be considered as friendship though, Raven was just repaying his debt of gratitude .
"Help!" Raven said .
Ramont then dashed out immediately .
He was different from Raven because he treated Lawless as a real friend . The times they spent drinking and talking crap, risking their lives for each other, and going through harsh battles, their friendship was much stronger than anyone could have imagined .
So, no hesitation was needed because helping Kieran was helping Lawless in a way .
Though before Ramont and Raven could stride ahead, they halted their steps abruptly .
They saw the huge swarm of insects fly through the twin-headed snake's body as if it was a projection .
"It went through? That snake can alter between mirage and material form?"
Both veteran players reacted to what happened after a slight pause .
Both of them knew what was running in the other's mind after a quick exchange of gaze . Raven and Ramont decided to seize the opportunity to find and help Lawless while the swarm of insects was attracted to the twin-headed snake .
Although both of them didn't know how Lawless was doing, it couldn't be good .
"I really want to crush that bastard's balls that cut off our communications channel!" Ramont cursed once more when the thought hit him .
Then he looked at Raven, "Can you locate him?" he asked .
Since they couldn't access the convenient communication channel, Ramont couldn't get a precise location other than knowing Lawless was around Small Path Square .
Fortunately, Raven knew . As a Chosen One, Raven was not only skilled in communicating with animals, he has his own ace card that others could never imagine .
"Follow me!" Raven then sprinted off quickly as Ramont followed close behind .
The moment Raven sprinted off, his movement speed was considered remarkable and might even surpass most of the veterans . He might even be one of the fastest players among the bunch .
Raven went straight towards the dried up fountain because he sensed that Lawless was underneath the fountain pond!
Wuung!
A vile wind was blown at them both as the swarm of insects that covered the night sky flew down towards them . The insects ditched the twin-headed snake since they couldn't damage it but Kieran had no intentions of letting the bugs go .
"AIO!"
"AIO!"
Kieran appeared behind Raven and Ramont in a flash . He reached out his hands with both palms opened up and aimed at the incoming insect swarm as he chanted out loud .
FUUUU! FUUUUM!
Two cone-shaped flames burst out from Kieran's palm together .
The two 55° cone-shaped flames were blasted out in a 3-meter range in front of Kieran . The swarm of insects flew directly into the blazing flames and amid the messy burning sounds, hundreds of flying insects were burnt to a crisp while a burnt scent lingered in the air .
"I'll leave this to you! Be right back with Lawless!"
Ramont saw that Kieran had him covered and he quickly jumped into the fountain pond after drawing out his flaming sword .
With Raven's instruction, the flaming sword was plunged right into the bottom of the pond .
Bang!
A big opening was opened up at the bottom as Raven and Ramont jumped into it .
Another portion of the insects wanted to pursue them but Kieran was a step ahead .
The giant twin-headed giant snake switched back to its material form and covered the fountain completely .
Kieran jumped up to one of its head and fired out another cone-shaped flame from his right hand .
The swarm of insects were burnt to a crisp once more .
While Kieran's left hand was brewing up a blazing fireball, ready to fire, he looked at the insect swarm above the night sky and glanced over the gathering Black Robes players .
Then, he stood up high and mighty and saying loudly, "This path is closed!"
