Chapter 652: “Vampire Assault”
What happened here? Its so messy Did a war happen here? Syaoran and Sakura surveyed the city around them, now reduced toplete ruins, skepticism in their eyes.
Judging by the residual traces, this modern world resembled the original Hanshin Republic. However, thendscape was littered with ruins, devoid of any signs of life.
It doesnt look like a war. Look at these buildings; it seems theyve been corroded by something, Kurogane remarked, touching the nearby stone and swiftly drawing his own conclusion.
Corroded?
Everyone examined their surroundings closely and soon realized the uracy of Kuroganes observation.
The variousrge and small structures didnt appear to have been shattered by explosive force or magical attacks.
Instead, they seemed to be corroded and melting away. Even the stonescked sharp edges and corners upon touch.
Its not a war; its a natural disaster! Jerry dered at that moment.
A natural disaster?
Confusion clouded everyones expressions. However, the reason behind his statement became apparent before Jerry could borate.
The sky began to drizzle lightly, but this was no ordinary rainit was highly corrosive acid rain.
With each drop capable of leaving a red mark on the skin upon contact, it became evident that staying exposed to this rain for an extended period could lead to a swift and perilous demise.
Obviously, these dpidated structures had endured the prolonged assault of acid rain, resulting in their current state.
Protego! Jerrymanded, waving his hand. A transparent magic shield materialized above everyones heads, shielding them from the highly corrosive acid rain.
Upon arriving in the new world, Jerrys initial actions involved sensing thews governing it and then delving into Sakuras memory feathers.
Once he attuned to the worldsws, he discerned a particrw that had seemingly been addedter.
Upon further contemtion, he uncovered thews purpose.
Periodically, thisw released a substantial amount of energy, transforming it into highly corrosive acid rain that nketed the world.
This revtion led Jerry to categorize it as a natural disaster, a phenomenon he could replicate within his ring world.
However, his worlds operationcked natural disasterws for the benefit of the creatures inhabiting it, maintaining a perpetual state of favorable weather.
This anomaly suggested that there was an issue with this world. The Creator God responsible for its inception likely modified certainws, resulting in the current perilous situation.
It seems that we have to find feathers and leave this world as soon as possible, Syaoran remarked with concern, pulling Sakura closer and ncing at the acid rain obstructed by Jerrys magic shield.
Standing on the side, Fay smiled and said, With Mr. Carmen here, I believe this will not be difficult.
Having experienced several worlds together, they were well aware of Jerrys remarkable speed in locating feathers.
In the building over there! Jerry dered, not bothering with formality.
After more than ten days of camaraderie, their rtionship had grown solid.
He pointed towards the lone building in the distance that appeared to be untouched.
He had just discerned that Sakuras memory feathery beneath the structure, and it was the feathers power that shielded the building from the corrosive effects of the acid rain.
Sakuras memory feather not only encapsted Sakuras soul and fragments of her memory but could also imprint thews of the world, naturally possessing magical properties.
As for why Sakuras memory feathers wielded such potent effects, it might be linked to Sakura herself.
During their time together, Jerry had noticed that despite Sakurasck of magical knowledge and apparent fragility, she possessed numerous magical qualities.
Her exceptionally strong luck was a prime example she invariably won at gambling and would secure the grand prize when buying a lottery ticket, even without understanding the rules of the games.
Moreover, she demonstrated the ability tomunicate with ghosts and inanimate objects, portraying an innate connection with the supernatural.
In essence, she seemed like a child of luck, a person favored by the God of Creation.
This might exin why the elusive mastermind utilized Sakuras memory feathers to gather thews and energy from diverse worlds.
This is not my world; lets go! Kurogane shook his head in disappointment. Despite traveling through several worlds, none of them matched his own.
What a stroke of bad luck.
Jerry nodded and waved his hand to open a portal.
Everyone passed through it, and upon reappearing, they found themselves at the location of the memory feather beneath the building.
Typically, Jerry would follow their routine detecting the feathers scent, exploring the new world for two days, and then retrieving the memory feather through various means once Mokona regained its ability to travel.
However, due to the corrosive acid rain and the destion of the surroundings, there was no need to roam this time.
Jerry opted to skip the wandering and directly opened a portal to the location where he sensed the feather.
The n was to obtain the feather first and then wait for Mokona to regain its shuttling ability.
But as soon as everyone stepped through the portal, a figure attacked them at incredible speed.
Before Jerry could react, Kurogane swiftly drew the long knife he had acquired in the previous world and faced the assant with excitement.
I havent fought in more than ten days, and my body is already rusty. Let mee and meet you! Kurogane eximed. He engaged in daily battles against people and monsters in his own world. In other worlds, due to Jerrys overwhelming magical prowess, Kurogane rarely had the chance to lift a finger.
Finally, he had acquired a quality knife in thest world. Seeing that todays opponent seemed formidable, Kurogane decided to take the initiative and face the challenge.
Observing this, Jerry dispersed the magic he had been about to cast and stood aside, anticipating the unfolding spectacle.
The Memory Feather was located in the underground water nearby, making escape impossible.
Moreover, once retrieved, they had to wait for two days before moving on to the next world, so there was no need to rush.
Their assant was a strikingly handsome young man, possessing features that leaned towards the feminine side.
His agility allowed him to leave afterimages in the air, and his rapid healing capabilities meant that he instantly recovered from the cuts inflicted by Kuroganes long Kurogane knife.
However, even with these abilities, he proved to be no match for Kurogane.
As the most formidable ninja in his own world, Kurogane had dispatched hundreds of monsters with a silver dragon sword, showcasing his unmatched strength.
I will never let you hurt Subaru! After being shed away once again by Kurogane, the young man roared. His eyes turned golden, fangs emerged from his mouth, and his ten fingernails morphed into sharp weapons.
In a swift motion, he disappeared and reappeared behind Kurogane, gripping his heart fiercely.
He is actually a vampire! Jerry, standing aside, refrained from intervening but sighed at the young mans transformation.
