Chapter 369: 369
Moreover, her presence exuded intense pressure. The air around her seemed to create an illusionary scene of burning that nearly choked them.
As they wondered who she was, a loud scream pierced the chaos.
"Sister Sophia!"
Gwen's voice cut through abruptly. Her eyes widened in disbelief, and a radiant smile spread
across her face. As if struck by lightning, she vanished from her spot, reappearing in a
heartbeat before the red-haired beauty.
SWISH!
Standing before Sophia, Gwen's face was a mixture of astonishment and joy. In the next moment, she jumped forward to give her a hug.
Sophia, with a sincere smile, extended her hand to catch her.
"Sister Sophia, what are you doing here? And more importantly, how did you manage to get a permit to be here?"
Sophia's eyes twinkled with amusement at Gwen's surprised expression. Her smile softened into a more serious look as she was bombarded with questions. "What's with all these sudden questions? Aren't you happy to see me?"
"Of course I am!" Gwen chuckled, her face flushed with happiness. Despite the dire circumstances, she felt a surge of relief and warmth seeing the familiar face. It had been only a few days, but it felt like an eternity.
"Did you come alone? Where is Feng Ruoxi?"
Sophia's expression turned regretful. "Sadly, she didn't get the permit as quickly as I did," she answered, shaking her head slightly.
"How so...?" Gwen's question trailed off as loud screams filled the air again.
More monsters began crawling up the walls, their grotesque forms adding to the chaos.
Sophia's eyes hardened, her earlier warmth replaced by a cold, determined glare as she prepared to confront the new threat.
As the screams of the monsters grew louder, more began to crawl up the walls, their grotesque bodies slipping and skittering over each other.
The entire place was engulfed in a cacophony of shrieks and hissing.
Gwen's face tightened with concern, but Sophia's gaze remained calm.
She turned around sharply, and her gaze narrowed at the advancing monsters. With a decisive snap of her fingers, she summoned her Phoenix Martial Spirit.
A shimmering aura of fiery red and gold enveloped her, her presence now commanding and majestic. The temperature in the room soared as flames began to dance around her, the fiery essence of the Phoenix taking shape.
Sophia raised her hand high, and with a powerful motion, she cast her attack. A massive wall of fire erupted from her palm, surging toward the wall where the monsters were climbing.
The blazing inferno roared to life, expanding rapidly and engulfing the area.
The wall of ice that was still in place suddenly exploded outward shooting out sharp shreds of pieces that lodged deep into the monsters.
The wall of fire blazed with intense heat, its flames licking and consuming everything in its path. The monsters recoiled in fear, their hissing turning to panicked cries. The slimy creatures and skitter beasts hesitated, their eyes wide with terror as the searing heat of the fire wall kept them at bay.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
The inferno crackled and roared, forming an impenetrable barrier that burned away the advancing monsters.
They writhed and shrieked, their forms blackening and disintegrating under the relentless blaze. The monstrous tide was halted, their attempts to cross the wall of fire proving futile. Gwen watched in awe, her earlier happiness momentarily eclipsed by the sheer power and precision of Sophia's attack. The fiery barrier held strong, turning back the monstrous horde and securing a temporary reprieve from the onslaught.
Sophia's eyes remained focused and unyielding as the flames roared around her.
The place was illuminated by the fiery glow, casting long shadows and revealing the true extent of her formidable strength.
Her presence turns things around abruptly, startling everyone.
...
On the above platform, where the commander stood in place.
"I have seen her somewhere but I can't remember her," Cameron muttered rubbing his chin. That red hair and the fire Phoenix looked similar to Feng but as far he remembered there wasn't certainly any woman like that cause her face looked more like American British compared to Feng who carries Chinese genes.
"She is Leon's girlfriend, Sophia.."Irina muttered, titling her and then wondering if something was looking around.
"It's weird...How did she reach here quickly...She isn't in the army so she can only come here from the Mercenary quota but it was a strenuous process to go through that."
It may not look like but one-third of the force here came from mercenaries. Though the risk was great, so was the reward. If anyone died here, the Federation would take care of the family for the next two generations, and if your child had roots he or she could attend Martial Arts school for free.
So, the mercenary chosen for support had to go through a long process of selection. That's why she was worried about Sophia because if she appeared here without permission that might create unnecessary trouble.
"That's because she is his girlfriend..."
"Huh!"
"Hun!"
Irina and Cameron made a bewildered expression and took a look at Mac's causal expression.
"What did you say?"Cameron asked again, wondering if he had heard something wrong.
"As I said, her application was passed as soon as they saw her after all who would dare to delay," Mac chuckled and gave Irina a mocking glance.
"Nowadays people already consider your son as the uncrowned Crown Prince of the
Federation. Who would dare to offend him?"
"So, as the person who is soon going to be wife, the higher-up had already instructed us to
not offend. An uncrowned crown Princess for the Prince."
Irina's face burnt badly and almost became red in embarrassment. However, she squeezed her
lips and answered.
"It's all because of his capability."
Cameron and Mac's lips twitched hearing this. However, they didn't belittle her cause the girl surely deserves her tittle.
