Chapter 394: Chapter 271: On the Brink of Happening_3

Molly was silent for a few seconds before quietly asking, "Is that Lord Theodore’s Soul Ripple?"

That was the only explanation she could think of.

Everyone looked at Rod, their thoughts the same.

Rod coughed and reluctantly replied, "Yes, this is the last Soul Ripple of Lord Theodore."

Anna asked softly, "Had Lord Theodore foreseen this long ago?"

"Ah... Yes, you are right, my steed."

Anna’s face flushed with pleasure and confusion as she felt like she had accepted her status as a mount, which seemed to be her reason for existence.

Everyone was amazed, admiring Lord Theodore for foreseeing such a distant future.

Rod stood up and said with a smile, "Alright, enough chit-chat. Now, watch the show that Mephit and I will put on. Anna, transform into a horse and take us to the battlefield."

Anna responded in a mosquito-like voice, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and released her Magic Power.

When the purple smoke dispersed, her Awakened State—a Centaur—boldly stood before them.

Compared to last time, she had become more robust and handsome, with smooth lines and defined muscles.

A very beautiful mare indeed.

Rod jumped onto the horse’s back and called out, "Mephit, come on."

Anna, turning her head aside, said discontentedly, "I am your mount. I don’t want other people to ride me."

Rod laughed, "Mephit isn’t just anyone; she is my best partner."

Anna said angrily, "Didn’t you say that I was your best partner?"

Rod was startled, realizing he had forgotten this and chuckled awkwardly, "You both are my best partners."

Anna, pouting, turned her head away, obviously not appeased.

Rod managed to calm Anna down only after much petting of the horse’s back and massaging of her human back.

She moved next to Mephit and said indifferently, "Get on."

Mephit hesitated but eventually leaped onto the horse’s back, sitting behind Rod.

O’Hara exclaimed, "I want to come too!" and jumped into Rod’s arms.

Molly then turned into a wisp of mist and covered Rod’s body.

Anna, dissatisfied, snorted, but her upper human part barely made any sound, and it came off rather coy and cute instead.

"Stop crowding around!"

Rod threw O’Hara down and shooed Molly off his body.

"This is a special tactic, not suitable for you to accompany."

O’Hara’s lips pouted, and tears rolled around in her large eyes, "You actually don’t want me! I clearly prepared for you for so long."

Rod exclaimed angrily, "It’s preparing Spiritual Energy!"

"Spiritual Energy is my child!"

Rod held his forehead and softened his tone, "It’s really not needed this time, but next time it will be."

He then said to Molly, "Since First Level combat preparation has been made, let’s not cancel it. Have the warriors spread out around Star Town just in case."

Molly nodded, "Okay."

Rod smiled, "Then I’m setting off. Keep watch."

He smacked the horse’s rear forcefully and shouted, "Drive!"

Anna bolted forward but suddenly realized what happened and shouted angrily, "I am not a horse, just say go. Don’t hit my bottom."

"Alright, alright, I know. Mephit, since this is your first time riding a Centaur, I’ll tell you the crucial techniques. Copy my actions and hold me tight."

"Don’t you dare hold my chest!"

As the first word fell, Anna had already jumped out of the hall, and by the last word, she had disappeared from their sight.

In the hall, everyone exchanged glances.

O’Hara chuckled, "Hahaha, our Commander really is spirited."

Beowood said dryly, "I told you guys, he’s a bit of a rogue. Every girl on Red Workshop street knows his name."

This topic immediately piqued O’Hara’s interest. She inquired eagerly, "Really? Tell me more. I want to know the details."

But the rest showed little interest. While the opposite sex was certainly appealing, it was power they truly cared about—Spiritual Energy, Characteristics, Fire Spark, Combat Skills, Monster Knowledge—these were the foundations of their existence.

Everyone walked outside.

Though they believed their Commander would definitely win, the determined strategy still had to be precisely executed.

Only O’Hara lingered, pestering Beowood about Rod’s scandalous past while Molly quietly eavesdropped behind them.

At this moment, Anna had already taken Rod and Mephit out of Star Town’s fiery range. A dull red glow from the Red Tear Stone began to activate on their bodies, warding off the Black Fog’s intrusion.

Far off, where they could not see, Aries Demons surged towards Star Town like a tide.

At the front of the Monster Tide, three figures glowing red carefully scattered a specially made Corrosive Material to ensure the Aries Demon swarm did not stray off course.

And at an even further distance, a pair of eyes quietly watched everything.

The battle was about to ignite.
