Chapter 2099


    James remained in Wyrmstead for the rest of the day.


    As news of what was happening around the world poured in, he dreaded the worst.


    As night fell, ck rain poured from the sky once again.


    Due to the eventsst night, no one wandered about outside and simply remained indoors.


    Tonight’s rain was less destructive thanst night’s.


    In a city in Sol…


    Murky water flowed through the underground drainage system as carcasses of mice were soaked in


    the water.


    From the corner, a giant rat appeared. It was about half a meter in length, and its teeth were sharp and


    menacing. It was a mutated rat. After being contaminated by the rainwater, unknown viruses entered its


    body, causing its body to mutate at a rapid pace. Possessing great strength, it leaped into the air and


    landed a few meters away. As its enormous body mmed against the wall of the underground


    drainage, cracks began appearing.


    At the same time, many animals began mutating all over the world. Some ants were nowrger than


    oxen, and some animals were now as gigantic as mountains. After being contaminated by the virus,


    they mutated in a short amount of time.


    At 10 p.m., James was sitting in the main hall of Wyrmstead Pce.


    “James.”


    At that moment, Henry came rushing in.


    “What’s wrong?”


    James, who was deep in contemtion, collected himself. Upon seeing Henry’s anxious face, he


    asked, “Did something bad happen?”


    Henry said, “I just received news from Sol that a group of rats has mutated in Hulu City, allowing


    them to possess enormous strength. The rats have caused great destruction to human lives and


    property, generating great disturbances within the city. As of now, more than fifty thousand people have


    been killed.”


    Belonging ? N?velDram/a.Org.


    Upon hearing this, James’ expression turned grim.


    Henry continued, “Some martial artists within Sol have headed in the direction of Hulu City to


    exterminate these mutated rats.


    “Besides, many animals have mutated overnight. Both their strength and their size have increased.


    Many regions in Sol have fallen into disorder.”


    Henry brought much news.


    All the events seemed to be taking ce in Sol.


    James could do nothing about them.


    He asked, “How’s the situation at Wyrmstead?”


    Henry said, “As the ck Dragon Army is made up of martial artists, the situation is stable at the


    moment. Although their ranks are low, they aren’t affected by the rain. Apart from the four hundred


    thousand ck Dragon Army that has entered the Celestial Abode, many others. are on duty. Once the


    mutated creatures show themselves, they’ll annihte them on the spot.”


    Hearing this, James breathed a sigh of relief.


    It appeared that his efforts were not in vain. At least Wyrmstead was stable when the Cmity hit.


    James ordered, “Instruct all civilians to remain indoors at all times. Should there be any emergencies,


    order them to make contact with the ck Dragon Army in the area. They should only leave with the


    company of the army.”


    “Understood.”


    Henry nodded and turned to leave swiftly.


    After he left the pce, Thea walked in. She was dressed in ck, and her long ck hair waved in


    the air. Her features were fine and delicate, entuating her beauty.


    While she was outside the pce, she overheard Henry’s summary of the situation. Not only that, but


    she was also keeping a close eye on the Martial Arts Forum.


    She walked toward James and sat beside him, gently grabbing his arm.


    “Don’t worry, Darling. Soon, everything will be over.”


    “I hope so.”
