He suddenly saw the Book of the Dead emerge from the Void, opening before him.

Fairy Chris whispered in his ear,

"I have connected my Divination Skill with your Book of the Dead; it will show you the specific situation."

Wu Xiaode nodded slightly and looked at the Book of the Dead.

Rows of ice crystal tiny characters had already appeared:

"With the help of the Fairy's Great Prophecy Skill, the current information is as follows,"

"You must leave the village with Gjestastav within one hour to avoid a certain danger. Otherwise, this heavy seal will deepen here through Gjestastav's painful memories and will not be broken by you."

"Remaining time: 59:59."

God knows what could happen in the village concerning Gjestastav!

But now he could not afford to investigate.

There was only one hour left!

Wu Xiaode stood up, grabbed Gjestastav's hand, and said softly,

"Come with me, sister, we deserve a better life, not to be despised here."

Gjestastav bit her lip and nodded,

"Okay, I'll follow you, Little Wu."

Wu Xiaode was overjoyed.

The two had always been relying on each other, and that day he had stood up for her in a fight, eventually earning her approval.

That's why he could now persuade her with just a word.

This was perfect!

The two children packed up, only managing to gather a torn cloth bag containing their only change of clothes, along with a small hunting knife and a bow and arrows.

"Let's go!"

Wu Xiaode said.

Using the cover of night, they headed towards the village outskirts.

Just then, it began to rain.

Thunder rolled.

Gjestastav hesitated, "Little Wu, shall we leave tomorrow?"

"No way! With this weather, everyone will stay inside, making it easier for us to move. Who knows what will happen tomorrow?"

Wu Xiaode said decisively.

Gjestastav, having suffered before, naturally didn't consider a bit of rain a problem. Hearing Wu Xiaode say this, she didn't speak further.

Wu Xiaode, carrying the torn bag, led Gjestastav outside.

They hadn't walked far.

Suddenly, they heard a loud "boom" from the road they had come.

The two looked back.

"It's our home!"

Gjestastav exclaimed.

Through the dark night rain, they saw a blaze lighting up the hillside.

Their mountain cave was set on fire!

What exactly was happening?

They didn't know.

But this was clearly an attack targeting Gjestastav!

Wu Xiaode's heart sank, and he vaguely sensed an ominous omen.

Something dangerous was about to happen, and it was imminent.

In this situation…

It was no longer possible to hide their strength!

—Chris's strength!

"Gjestastav, I have something to tell you," Wu Xiaode said.

"What?" Gjestastav asked.

"Well, I have a loyal friend who is about to come help us. Do not panic when you see her."

Wu Xiaode waved his hand.

On a large tree ahead of them, a black cat quietly appeared.

"A cat?"

Gjestastav said, puzzled.

How could a cat help us?

The black cat meowed at them and then dashed towards the dense forest.

"She has already found the route down the mountain to the human world—let's follow her!"

Wu Xiaode said.

He led the way, and Gjestastav followed quickly through the dense forest.

Time slowly passed.

Half an hour later.

The black cat suddenly stopped ahead, turned, and looked back towards the mountain.

A massive Fiery Flame orb appeared in the sky, falling straight down like a meteor.

Boom!!!

The ground kept shaking.

— It was the direction of the village!

But what had happened?

Wu Xiaode gripped Gjestastav tightly, turning his gaze toward the black cat.

The black cat, with a stern face, crouched on the ground, pondered for a while, raised its paw, bit it open, and then started drawing a bizarre rune array on the ground.

"Little Wu, this is the Demon Art Array of Transformation. I'm worried I can't protect you later, so stand on it first,"

Chris conveyed through telepathy.

"Okay."

Wu Xiaode led Gjestastav to stand in the middle of the array.

The black cat let out a fierce breath from its mouth.

"Is she cursing us?"

Gjestastav asked.

"No, she's chanting a spell," Wu Xiaode said.

The next moment—

Their figures quickly shrank, becoming as small as a thumb, and before Gjestastav could react—

The black cat's tail came over, gently coiled them up, and placed them on the cat's head.

"Listen, although I am a master at hide and seek, I haven't really taken others along for hiding, so from now, be silent."

The black cat's voice came out in a female tone.

Intense dark mist began to envelop its body, merging almost completely with the night.

Wu Xiaode and Gjestastav nodded urgently.

"Hold tight—"

The black cat leaped forward, jumping onto the branches of a large tree, ready to leave the area.

Suddenly.

Several figures appeared where Wu Xiaode and Gjestastav originally stood.

— They were Dragon Clan warriors clad in full armor, wielding weapons!

"Didn't find them?"

A deep voice sounded.

At some point, a man in a dark red luxurious robe appeared next to the large tree.

These people were only a few steps away from the black cat.

But they had not sensed the black cat's presence at all!

Wu Xiaode couldn't help but feel a rush of palpitations.

If they had been any later, these people would have captured him and Gjestastav!

It was a hair's breadth!

"Reporting to the lord, the last traces of those two people are right here, then they disappeared,"

a Dragon Clan warrior said.

"Just two kids, they can't have gone far, keep searching, we'll definitely find them."

"Yes!"

The Dragon Clan warriors headed into the forest.

The man in the dark red robe stood still, seemingly deep in thought.

He muttered to himself:

"Things have been going too smoothly up until now, finally leading to this disaster…"

"In fact, the day of Awakening was approaching; we should have been cautious long ago."

A few meters away.

In the tree, Wu Xiaode clutched at the cat fur, a sliver of doubt crossing his mind.

Awakening?

Gjestastav, having been bullied by the children in the village, suffering cuts and bruises, didn't even have enough time to train.

And now you're saying she's about to awaken?

Suddenly, Wu Xiaode felt a sensation and turned his head.

On the back of the cat, the girl was radiating bright light, almost breaking through the fog surrounding the black cat.

— She really was awakening!

Not now!

The situation was dangerous!

Wu Xiaode's thoughts raced, seeking a plan, only to discover that the same phenomena were emerging on himself.

He froze.

— What was this situation?

An ice crystal inscription floated before his eyes:

"As a 2nd Player, you carry the same Dragon King bloodline, and bear the same fate."

"Your beyond-the-limit Dragon Blood power is about to awaken!"
