nThe moment he entered the house, he immediately felt the warmth.

nThe fire was burning in the furnace at a high temperature.

n

n

nThe house was very clean.

nExquisite items and furniture were placed all around.

nOn the walls, there were some paintings that seemed extremely valuable, which made the house appear very stylish.

n“Take a seat to warm yourself first.”After entering the house, Anna beckoned at Lu Yuan to sit down.

n

n

nAfter Anna believed in Lu Yuan’s identity, she let down her guard.

nHow could he be a bad person if he could obtain the pendant made by her parents?

nLu Yuan sat down on the sofa.

nHis body temperature gradually warmed up and he recovered from the cold and the stiffness it caused.

n

n

nLu Yuan could not help but feel puzzled.

nIt was clear that they were warm in the house, so why would Anna die this winter?

nCould it be that she had made a sudden trip out and thus died in an accident?

nAnna sat quietly opposite Lu Yuan, looking very obedient. Coupled with her extremely good looks, she looked very cute.

nOn the table in front of her, there were some fruits and a vase of flowers. They looked very exquisite.

nAnna said softly, “Sir, do you want some fruit? I’ll peel it for you.”

n

n

nAs she said that, Anna picked up an apple and was about to pare its skin for Lu Yuan.

nUnexpectedly, when she picked up the fruit knife, Anna’s hands were trembling.

n“Clang!”

nThe sound of the fruit knife hitting the ground could be heard clearly.

nAnna could not hold it in anymore. It was like a chain reaction, her entire body started to tremble.

n“I… I’m sorry, sir… I’m really… very scared…”

nAnna’s voice was obviously trembling as she spoke, with a sobbing tone. It made people feel pity for her.

nAnna wept softly. Tears streaked across her angel-like face, and her face turned pale.

n

n

nSeeing Anna’s expression, Lu Yuan could not help but feel touched.

nEven though she was just an NPC, at this moment, Lu Yuan felt that Anna had a human soul and was real.

nAfter all, she was just a little girl.

nNo matter how strong she was, when she learned that she was about to die, she would still cry in fear.

nLu Yuan stood up and sat beside Anna. He reached out and gently held Anna’s shoulder. He tried his best to comfort her with a gentle tone.

n“Alright, Anna. You will be fine. I promise. I came here this time to save you from this disaster. I swear on my whole person that I will definitely protect you.”

nLu Yuan’s comforting words worked. Anna gradually regained her emotional stability and was no longer so afraid.

n“Really… really, sir?”

nLu Yuan gave her a determined look and nodded lightly. “Of course it’s true.”

nAnna raised her head slightly and looked at Lu Yuan’s handsome face. He seemed very reliable.

nJust as she was about to say something, suddenly, a violent snowstorm started bellowing outside.

nThe sky suddenly darkened, as if a huge black curtain had enveloped the city.

nThe air was filled with an oppressive pressure that made it difficult to breathe.

n

n

nHuff~ Huff!

nThe raging cold gale suddenly blew, making whistling sounds.

n“Clang, clang, clang!”

nThe windows were clashing against one another as the strong gale blew.

nHeavy snow fell as if they were about to condense into ice.

nThe surrounding temperature also dropped rapidly, causing a feeling as if one had fallen into an ice cave.

nAll of this happened without any warning!

nIt was as if such a snowstorm had appeared out of thin air!

nLu Yuan could not help but look out of the window.

n“This is…”

nAnna also noticed the abnormality and her face turned pale. “How could a snowstorm suddenly appear without any warning?”

nLu Yuan’s expression was solemn.

nOthers might not know, but Lu Yuan was very clear about the reason behind all this in his heart.

nThe cause of all this was not the sudden change in the weather, but because that existence had appeared!

nOne of the famous Twelve Calamity Demons, Hernas!

nEach Calamity Demon had the formidable strength to destroy mountains and rivers as well as wipe out cities with a raise of their hand.

nThe Laws they grasped could even destroy the world.

nHernas was known as the Snow Demon, and he controlled the Laws of Ice and Snow.

nEvery time he appeared, he would be accompanied by a violent blizzard.

nEverything around him would be affected!

nIn his previous life, Lu Yuan had also experienced a blizzard without any warning.

nAt first, the players and NPCs thought that this was just an ordinary blizzard and that it would pass quickly.

nUnexpectedly, this was the beginning of a disaster.

nThis snowstorm was unprecedentedly severe and violent.

nThe frost that fell was enough to freeze all living things. Any temperature would pale in comparison to this snowstorm and instantly turn cold.

nThe impact of this snowstorm had caused millions of lives to die!

nWhether one was a player or an NPC, they would all die!

nThe fire of an ordinary furnace would be unable to resist the cold since the blizzard itself was constructed from the Laws of Ice and Snow of a Calamity Demon!

nThe power of the Laws was superior to all the powers in the world!

nLu Yuan, who had experienced the disaster back then, knew what kind of hellish, painful, and despair-filled abyss this was.

nOn top of that, this violent blizzard was only the prelude to the arrival of Hernas!

nWhat was truly terrifying was yet to come!

nAnd now, a raging blizzard was happening in Amber City without any warning, just like in his previous life.

nLu Yuan instantly understood what was going on, combined with the hints given on the pendant, Lu Yuan immediately knew why Anna would die in a blizzard.

nBecause the blizzard itself was caused by Hernas!

nThis was a top-tier demon that people had to look up to in despair!

nIn his previous life, Lu Yuan had never even reached the level of such an existence!

nHe did not expect to encounter such a demon again in such a way.

nAnna’s face was pale, she was afraid of such a sudden snowstorm.

nAn inexplicable pressure came down, and Anna almost couldn’t catch her breath.

nThe streets outside were already in chaos.

nMany people were afraid of such a violent snowstorm. There were shouts and yells everywhere, and there were also sounds of things hitting the ground. These sounds were accompanied by the sound of the snowstorm as they came in through the window.

nLu Yuan was just about to do something when he suddenly heard a system notification.

nThe snowstorm has arrived. All restrictions on the player have been removed.

nIssuing main mission, Save Anna and ensure Anna’s survival through the blizzard.
