nSeeing this system notification, Lu Yuan could not help but let out a long sigh of relief, because, with this, all the restrictions on his skills would be removed.
nThus, he could use his skills for the continuing mission, which could be considered as a guarantee of safety.
n
n
nWhoosh! Whoosh!
nThe cold gale outside the window continued to wreak havoc.
nThe storm seemed to be getting heavier.
n“Clang! Clang! Clang!”
n
n
nAmber City was now in chaos.
nIndistinctly, the sounds of shouting and chaos could still be heard from the streets outside.
nBecause the snowstorm had arrived too suddenly, many people were caught off guard.
nSnow was falling heavily, and the temperature continued to drop.
n
n
nLu Yuan had experienced the disaster in his previous life, so he naturally knew how powerful it was.
nIt wouldn’t be long before the outside world would be covered in frost.
nAmber City would also become a city of frost due to this!
nThe temperature gradually dropped, and the air carried a suffocating pressure.
nThe cold quickly crept into the house.
nA layer of frost instantaneously formed on the surrounding walls, and like some kind of disease, it quickly spread.
n
n
nThere was still some hot water left in the cup on the table, but it quickly lost its warmth and turned into ice in the blink of an eye.
nThere were also some fruits that were also completely covered in frost and were utterly frozen.
nThe wooden floor could not resist the erosion of the frost as well and a layer of frost formed on the floor.
nIn such an environment, Anna seemed a little helpless.
nShe had never experienced such a violent snowstorm, which caught Anna off guard.
nIn addition to what Lu Yuan had said to her earlier, it immediately made Anna feel a little uneasy.
n“Sir Lu Yuan, I won’t… die just like this… right?”
nTears flashed in Anna’s eyes, and she choked silently.
n
n
nThe terrifying snowstorm of such as scale, coupled with the prophecy just now, it was as if death had really descended on her.
nWhen the terrifying scene appeared, no one could face it calmly, what was left was only the deep fear of death.
nLu Yuan saw her tears and her fear, and his heart ached for her.
n“Don’t worry, I’ve said it before. I’ll protect you well!”
nLu Yuan took the initiative to step forward at this time.
nMoreover, the restrictions on his skills had been removed, so there was nothing to worry about.
nWith his skills, Lu Yuan had a certain level of protecting ability.
n…
nThe clamor and chaos outside continued.
nThe wind continued to howl.
nThe blizzard raged, the gale did not stop.
nThe temperature was also continuing to drop.
nLu Yuan saw that on the mission interface, there was a countdown.
n
n
nThere were still seven hours left.
nThis should mean that he had to protect Anna’s safety during these seven hours.
nLu Yuan could not help but smile bitterly.
nThis mission was really not easy to clear.
nLu Yuan knew that he was going up against Hernas, one of the Twelve Calamity Demons who was also known as the Snow Demon!
nOnce this existence descended to the world, it would undoubtedly be a disaster!
nTherefore, the most important thing now was to think of a way to withstand this snowstorm.
nOtherwise, Anna would freeze to death!
nLu Yuan asked, “Where do you keep all the fuel in your house? We have to gather all the fuel now! The house also has to be reinforced, or else it might be blown away by the storm!”
nAs he said this, Lu Yuan took out the items that he had prepared beforehand from his backpack. They were items that could protect one against the cold.
n“These are high-calorie foods. If we eat them, our bodies will be able to have enough calories to generate heat and resist the cold. These are extremely warm clothes. You can change into them too! This is liquor with high alcohol content. If it’s too cold, just take a sip! But children shouldn’t drink too much alcohol. Alright, tell me where the fuel for your family is first.”
nAnna watched as Lu Yuan arranged all kinds of things in an orderly manner and instantly felt that Lu Yuan was reliable, which made her calm down quite a bit.
n“The fuel at home is stored in the basement.”
nLu Yuan nodded. Then, he quickly took all the fuel that could be moved from the basement to the living room.
nThe furnace fire had to be vigorous enough. Otherwise, it would be extinguished by the blizzard very soon.
n“The fire in the furnace must not be extinguished! Otherwise, the cold temperature will devour us!”
nClang!
nLu Yuan moved all the fuel over and piled it on the ground.
nIt did not matter even if he dirtied the exquisite carpet on the ground!
nAnna was shocked when she saw how fast Lu Yuan was moving.
nThen, Lu Yuan found some wooden planks in the house and used them to strengthen the windows.
nAt the same time, there were also some areas that looked fragile and needed to be strengthened.
nCling, cling!
nIn a short while, Lu Yuan had already reinforced all the areas that could be strengthened.
n“Okay, it’s done.”
nAnna looked at her own house, which had completely changed.
nAfter being reinforced by Lu Yuan, the house was not recognizable anymore.
nIt was just like an abandoned house in the desolate lands, without any beauty at all!
nLu Yuan could not help but smile as he said, “Do you feel that the house has become hideous because of me?”
nAnna nodded subconsciously, but soon came to her senses and quickly shook her head.
nLu Yuan said with a serious face, “Beauty and art are not important anymore! The key now is to survive!”
nAnna acted as if she had done something wrong and said in a low voice, “Yes, I understand, Sir Lu Yuan. All matters will be up to you.”
nAfter Lu Yuan finished what he need to do, he could clearly feel that the temperature had dropped again.
nWhoosh! Whoosh!
nThe fierce wind outside was still continuing.
nThe gale and snowstorm were wreaking havoc in Amber City.
nIn Amber Cty, some small wooden houses and some frail houses were shaking as if they were about to collapse in the strong wind.
nThere was no one on the street anymore because it was too cold!
nTo stay outside was torture.
nThe homeless people who had no shelter would soon die because they would not be able to resist the cold.
nThe ice and the cold would erode everyone, including all the living beings in the city!
nEven though Anna was already close to the furnace, as the temperature dropped, she could still feel the cold invading her body.
nLu Yuan also clearly felt the cold.
nHe could not help but raise his head to look outside.
nThrough the crack in the window, the view outside was completely blocked.
nLooking out, all one could see was a flurry of snow!
nThe snow and the winds whistled over, wreaking havoc everywhere.
nThe sky seemed to have been covered with a shadow that enveloped the entirety of Amber City!
nIn the house, one could only rely on the weak furnace fire to feel some warmth.
nIf one moved slightly away from the fire, one would quickly freeze into ice.
nFortunately, Lu Yuan had brought all the fuel over in time, and now they could only rely on the fuel to keep warm.
nThe house was almost turning into an igloo!
nLu Yuan was also worried.
nIf this continued, Amber City would not be able to withstand it no matter what!
nThe Twelve Calamity Demons were too terrifying!
nThis blizzard was like the end of the world, bringing complete despair to the people!
nAfter watching for a while, Lu Yuan could not stand the cold anymore.
nThus, he returned to the furnace to keep warm.
nHe also conveniently made the fire in the furnace burn more vigorously.
nThere were still 4 hours left in the countdown.
nIn these 4 hours, all he had to do was keep Anna alive!
n
