The moment he entered the house, he immediately felt the warmth.
The fire was burning in the furnace at a high temperature.
The house was very clean.
Exquisite items and furniture were placed all around.
On the walls, there were some paintings that seemed extremely valuable, which made the house appear very stylish.
“Take a seat to warm yourself first.”After entering the house, Anna beckoned at Lu Yuan to sit down.
After Anna believed in Lu Yuan’s identity, she let down her guard.
How could he be a bad person if he could obtain the pendant made by her parents?
Lu Yuan sat down on the sofa.
His body temperature gradually warmed up and he recovered from the cold and the stiffness it caused.
Lu Yuan could not help but feel puzzled.
It was clear that they were warm in the house, so why would Anna die this winter?
Could it be that she had made a sudden trip out and thus died in an accident?
Anna sat quietly opposite Lu Yuan, looking very obedient. Coupled with her extremely good looks, she looked very cute.
On the table in front of her, there were some fruits and a vase of flowers. They looked very exquisite.
Anna said softly, “Sir, do you want some fruit? I’ll peel it for you.”
As she said that, Anna picked up an apple and was about to pare its skin for Lu Yuan.
Unexpectedly, when she picked up the fruit knife, Anna’s hands were trembling.
“Clang!”
The sound of the fruit knife hitting the ground could be heard clearly.
Anna could not hold it in anymore. It was like a chain reaction, her entire body started to tremble.
“I... I’m sorry, sir... I’m really... very scared...”
Anna’s voice was obviously trembling as she spoke, with a sobbing tone. It made people feel pity for her.
Anna wept softly. Tears streaked across her angel-like face, and her face turned pale.
Seeing Anna’s expression, Lu Yuan could not help but feel touched.
Even though she was just an NPC, at this moment, Lu Yuan felt that Anna had a human soul and was real. 𝙛𝐫e𝚎wℯ𝗯𝒏𝗼ѵ𝙚l.𝒄o𝚖
After all, she was just a little girl.
No matter how strong she was, when she learned that she was about to die, she would still cry in fear.
Lu 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.
“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.”
Lu Yuan’s comforting words worked. Anna gradually regained her emotional stability and was no longer so afraid.
“Really... really, sir?”
Lu Yuan gave her a determined look and nodded lightly. “Of course it’s true.”
Anna raised her head slightly and looked at Lu Yuan’s handsome face. He seemed very reliable.
Just as she was about to say something, suddenly, a violent snowstorm started bellowing outside.
The sky suddenly darkened, as if a huge black curtain had enveloped the city.
The air was filled with an oppressive pressure that made it difficult to breathe.
Huff~ Huff!
The raging cold gale suddenly blew, making whistling sounds.
“Clang, clang, clang!”
The windows were clashing against one another as the strong gale blew.
Heavy snow fell as if they were about to condense into ice.
The surrounding temperature also dropped rapidly, causing a feeling as if one had fallen into an ice cave.
All of this happened without any warning!
It was as if such a snowstorm had appeared out of thin air!
Lu Yuan could not help but look out of the window.
“This is...”
Anna also noticed the abnormality and her face turned pale. “How could a snowstorm suddenly appear without any warning?”
Lu Yuan’s expression was solemn.
Others might not know, but Lu Yuan was very clear about the reason behind all this in his heart.
The cause of all this was not the sudden change in the weather, but because that existence had appeared!
One of the famous Twelve Calamity Demons, Hernas!
Each Calamity Demon had the formidable strength to destroy mountains and rivers as well as wipe out cities with a raise of their hand.
The Laws they grasped could even destroy the world.
Hernas was known as the Snow Demon, and he controlled the Laws of Ice and Snow.
Every time he appeared, he would be accompanied by a violent blizzard.
Everything around him would be affected!
In his previous life, Lu Yuan had also experienced a blizzard without any warning.
At first, the players and NPCs thought that this was just an ordinary blizzard and that it would pass quickly.
Unexpectedly, this was the beginning of a disaster.
This snowstorm was unprecedentedly severe and violent.
The frost that fell was enough to freeze all living things. Any temperature would pale in comparison to this snowstorm and instantly turn cold.
The impact of this snowstorm had caused millions of lives to die!
Whether one was a player or an NPC, they would all die!
The 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!
The power of the Laws was superior to all the powers in the world!
Lu Yuan, who had experienced the disaster back then, knew what kind of hellish, painful, and despair-filled abyss this was.
On top of that, this violent blizzard was only the prelude to the arrival of Hernas!
What was truly terrifying was yet to come!
And now, a raging blizzard was happening in Amber City without any warning, just like in his previous life.
Lu 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.
Because the blizzard itself was caused by Hernas!
This was a top-tier demon that people had to look up to in despair!
In his previous life, Lu Yuan had never even reached the level of such an existence!
He did not expect to encounter such a demon again in such a way.
Anna’s face was pale, she was afraid of such a sudden snowstorm.
An inexplicable pressure came down, and Anna almost couldn’t catch her breath.
The streets outside were already in chaos.
Many 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.
Lu Yuan was just about to do something when he suddenly heard a system notification.
[The snowstorm has arrived. All restrictions on the player have been removed.]
[Issuing main mission, Save Anna and ensure Anna’s survival through the blizzard.]
