Chapter 1172 Makin An Escape



Suddenly the sound of an explosion resounded causing everyone to be shocked but it didn't stop there as another explosion followed and then another explosion came as a result of which the entire place they were standing on shook violently and the roof above them began to collapse.

"We are under attack!" Jeremy screamed in total panic.

Garrof screams with alarm, "Everyone, take cover!"

It was easy to say but an impossible task cause they had nowhere to hide, Garrof and Albrecht opened fire toward the collapsing roof that was about to fall on them.

Zhao Li Xin, as usual, remained stoic even though the huge steel beams fell on her, calmly Zhao Li Xin gathered Qi in his palms as soon as the immortal flames condensed in his hand, Zhao Li Xin launch a long-ranged attack on the roof, the blast of his power perfectly destroyed the rubbles that was about to fall on them.

Everyone gasped with wide eyes only Lory remain calm as she was used to seeing Zhao Li Xin showcase his power so she didn't feel like there was anything to be shocked about, besides, there was something else that crossed Lory's mind, she was recalled by the questionable amount of explosives she found in the back of the army vehicle.

Lory tapping her chin Lory muttered quietly "Oh, so this is why they got a lot of explosives in their vehicle, turn out they wanted to blow up this whole place, huh?" So this is the reason why the soldiers scattered as soon as they arrived, it seems they are eager to bury this whole place.

Lory inquisitively looked at Zhao Li Xin [Li Xin did you see them setting up a strange object before you got rid of them?]

Zhao Li Xin remembered the strange object he found when he was getting rid of the soldiers [Was it a strange object flashing red light]

Lory clapped her hands [Yes! so you did find it! thank goodness you didn't touch it otherwise, you will be blown away and not in a good way!] Lory was petrified thinking what would happen to Zhao Li Xin, but then he felt very relieved that Zhao Li Xin's curiosity didn't get the better of him.

[Well, it's because you warned me earlier] Zhao Li Xin expressed his compliance without the slightest bit of embarrassment.

It was the first time Lory realized being a henpeck could save lives, even so, she felt unsure whether she should be happy or worried for her beloved husband.

"We can't stay here" Lloyd's words took everyone by surprise.

"Hey, you still have the plane? Besides, I already paid for the plane," said Garrof.

Mary looked at her father with a troubled face because she had indeed received Garrof's payment and the money had already been transferred to their bank account.

But because they live in a remote place where it is difficult to get an outside connection therefore if she wants to return Garrof's money they have to go to the nearest town to find a bank which is impossible with their current situation, moreover...they really need money!

The successive explosion had destroyed all the buildings around them leaving flames roaring and licking the rest of the wrecked while thick gray smoke billowed into the blue sky.

But what worried Garrof and the others was that there might still be enemy remnants around this location, it was hoped that they would check the situation to make sure the job was done especially if they didn't hear back from the party they sent earlier.

Albrecht grumbled to himself then threw a key card at Garrof "I still have an old plane near the runway, if it's not blow up you can borrow it but you have to drive the plane yourself" Albrecht didn't wait for Garrof's answer he led his daughter and Jeremy to leave the place.

Garrof's mouth twitched in a smile, he didn't expect that Albrecht would rent out his plane, it seems this guy's character isn't too bad.

"How many Dragxtarn left in Luxemborough?" Lory suddenly threw a question before Albrecht left.

Albrecht was silent with a face as if he had just been struck by lightning in broad daylight "You...how could you...?"

The mysterious young girl's clear gaze was like an arrow piercing his heart, Albrecht clench his fist and then turned around "It's Enough..."

Albrecht's voice was a bit tense and agitated, Lory didn't know if it was because Albretch was scared of Dragxtarn haunting him and his family or because of something else but one thing was certain there was still enough active Dragxtarn left in Luxembourg, unfortunately, this is not the time to be worrying about that because as they had expected more military vehicles were coming at their direction. I think you should take a look at

Lory and the others immediately rushed to where the plane whereabout but all of a sudden they were startled by the roar of an airplane engine flying above their heads. It doesn't take a genius to figure out who just left.

"That's a nice plane..."

"Unfortunately, we can't say the same to the plane we get here" Garrof grits his teeth in frustration as he saw the appearance of an old plane that looked worn out, he wasn't even sure whether this plane could still fly or not.

Lory hear the sounds of vehicles increasing she let out a deep sigh "anyone got a better idea?"

"Hope on everybody!" Garrod had cursed Garros a hundred times in his head he had revoked his good opinion regarding Albretch's character, that man was a total prick and he would teach that fellow a good lesson the next time they met!

They hurriedly boarded the plane while Garrof and Lloyd entered the cockpit.

"You still remember how to fly the plane right?" he looked at Garrof worriedly.

Garrof slipped the card key then the rough sound of their airplane engine became boisterous, Garrof grinned at Lloyd "Don't worry, it'll be like riding a bicycle"

'That's not comforting!'

Lloyd's face turned flat and pale he look over his shoulder and shout in urgency "Princess, Mr. Zhao don't forget to put your seatbelt on!" 

"There's no any!" Lory retorts angrily.

The soldiers finally found them, they block their way then simultaneously pointed their guns at the plane to stop them, Lory of course couldn't just sit idly, using the power of the wind he blow the soldiers away.

"GO NOW - NOW - NOW!" Lloyd shouts in a hurry.

The plane moved in slow motion before slowly accelerating, meanwhile, a series of fires shot raining at the plane, Lory immediately formed a wall of ice around the plane to block the bullets.

"Hold on to something!" Garrof scream excitedly.

The nose of the plane started to rise, but the shaking inside the plane became harder and harder, Lory didn't know where or what to hold so she wrapped her arms around Zhao Li Xin's waist. 

"Garry this is bad - THIS IS BAD!" Lloyd screams as panic surges through him.

"We'll be alright – We'll be alright!" Garrof reassured him though he was not sure himself.

A moment later the plane managed to take off leaving the group of soldiers behind them, once the plane got into the air the shaking gradually decreased before completely stopped and the plane finally stabilized.

Garrof let out a long sigh then he grin proudly at Lyod "See...it's like riding a bike!" he waggled his brows.

"No, it's not!" Lloyd shrieked in fear, he feel he just got older by ten years.

Lory's head suddenly poked between them "You guys know I just came back from the dead right, and I plan to stay alive for at least a few more decades!"
