Richard looked at the large pieces of broken armor and the unhealed wounds on her body. The scene wounded his heart.
He reached out to help the young lady. He gently tucked her long hair behind her ear and said, "I'm here, Xina. You'll be alright. Don't cry."
The gentle voice made the young lady's emotions collapse. Tears incessantly poured out of the corners of her eyes, and she could not stop them.
This fearless warrior who could independently fight against transcendents appeared like a child at this moment.
Finally, she let go of herself and threw herself into Richard's arms. She sobbed.
"They're all dead, my lord. Our tribe people are all dead. Only us were left."
One to two hundred soul-crushing people of the Krina Tribe remained.
Her former playmates and close friends now had become cold corpses.
The giant worms even trampled some of the corpses to pieces.
Less than one in a hundred survived.
The Kobold God sealed this region to lose connection with the outside world. They could not find a way out. The despair was unimaginable, maddening, and soul-wrenching. They had to endure the attacks of a group of ferocious worms day and night. They could only see each fall until the city gradually collapsed.
But the young lady warrior prudently waited.
At some point, Richard suddenly reckoned that the young lady in his arms had stopped sobbing. He gently held her shoulders. He pushed her away slightly. Xina had fallen unconscious.
The lady warrior, who had persevered until the last moment, put down all her defenses in front of the person she relied on.
Richard sighed.
He waved his hand. He called the young centaur over.
Emily stepped forward and held Xina in her arms. Heartache filled her emotions. She carried her.
"Sister Xina… You'll be alright."
"I just fainted from exhaustion. I'll be fine after resting for a while."
Xina seemed to have thought of something and walked up to Commander Karen. The leader was still in a coma.
Richard didn't know Karen, but the information on the attribute panel was accurate.
Since the other party was once a transcendent, she must be a vital figure in the Krina Tribe.
He bent down slightly, and a bottle of Desert Crown Honey mixed with water appeared in his hand. He controlled the Yellow Sand Hand and gently fed it to the other party.
'Gulp, gulp, gulp.' Karen's life force gradually returned to a better state after a swallow of a few mouthfuls.
"You, you are Lord Richard? Thank you for your support. The Krina Tribe will forever remember you…"
A faint voice beside her caught Richard's attention.
He turned around and saw a female warrior on the ground with scars all over her body.
He took two steps forward and fed the Desert Crown honey to the other party with the Desert Hand.
The female warrior obediently drank a few mouthfuls, and then her complexion improved at a visible speed.
Her aura stabilized, and she spoke.
"This is the best honey water I've ever drunk..."
Richard couldn't help but laugh.
The warrior realized it as well. Her face was slightly red as he coughed lightly and said slowly, "Molly Krina, I send you my most noble greetings."
She raised her hand and placed it on her chest.
Richard waved his hand. That was an indication there was no need for formalities.
He spoke calmly.
"You're safe now. I'll bring you back to Twilight City later."
"Are there still your clansmen here?"
Molly nodded.
"There is a basement in the city center. The children of the Krina Tribe are all in there."
"I'll arrange for someone to pick them up immediately."
Molly immediately heaved a sigh of relief when she heard the help. Then, as if she had thought of something, her tone was hesitant.
"Lord Richard, your subordinates… In the previous battle, Dark Valkyrie had caused great trouble to the Kobold God. That despicable false god had set up a scheme to banish her into the void."
At this point, she felt embarrassed.
"We don't know where Dark Valkyrie is either."
Richard raised an eyebrow.
He expected an explanation for this. He couldn't detect Dark Valkyrie.
However, he was not worried about the warrior's safety with his thoughts of the Hero Altar. He would mostly spend some resources to revive her if anything happened.
This information that Molly mentioned piqued Richard's interest.
"It should be difficult for Fay to deal with the Kobold God with her power, especially when there are several transcendents on the other side…"
Molly said with admiration.
"Lord, Dark Valkyrie almost single-handedly killed a transcendent from the Giant Worm Tribe a month ago!
"She advanced to transcendent after the battle!
"It's also because of her that Krina City could hold on for so long…"
Richard was pleasantly surprised.
'Dark Valkyrie had also advanced!'
Anticipation shrouded his being.
This boss was an ultimate existence that could compete with the god's ancient tree for the number one battle power in Twilight City.
He wondered how much her attributes had increased after the advance.
Unfortunately, the system panel could not show current information. One needed to see the hero to know its attributes.
