Chapter 1538: The Good And The Bad

Run! Run! Run!

All warning bells rang in everyone's mind, be them foe or not.

And while Ivanka and her lot were grabbing what they could, Lucy's team had long met with the other fleeing women, deciding to take them out safely.

Sweet mother of pearls.

At a time like this, what choice did they have other than fleeing the scene?

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Several ma.s.sive explosions echoed, and the entire place began rumbling without end.

And then it happened.

Bam!!!

pa,nd a-nove,l They heard a loud collapse occur in a faraway corner.

Everyone turned in horror to see a wave of rocks and hard piles swim their way with every structure that collapsed.

"Run!!!"

Lucy was quick to her feet, running on shaky grounds that now had loosened soils.

Things fell before her, behind her, and at the sides, all crumbling down without delay.

Lucy jumped in the nick of time before the s.p.a.ce she was on was shattered by the ceiling above.

Lucy bellowed at the group before her.

She and only a few others were at the very back, guarding the captured ladies against any danger that might befall them.

"Ahhhhhh~"

One of the ladies screamed after missing a step and stumbling over her long skirt.

"Watch out!!!"

Someone screamed, already turning their attention away in despair.

Even the lady thought she would be turned into minced meat. She closed her eyes, waiting for death to sweep her by. However, a strange force pulled her away just in time.

And opening her eyes, she found herself hugging another woman on the ground.

.

"Can you stand?" Lucy asked the terrified woman.

To their left was giant rubble from above. Such a boulder could smash someone's head to paste from the height alone.

It's clear that even in this underground palace, the roofs were all high ceilings, nothing too choked up or narrowed.

Everything happened in no more than 2 seconds. But already, the woman felt her body covered in sticky sweat and her speech stammering with every word she spoke.

Shaken She was shaken to the core.

"My... My... My ankle... It's... It's broken."

Broken ankle?

Lucy threw the woman over her shoulders and followed the lot, and fled.

G.o.d dammit!

This was no time to think.

She felt like she was in the Baymardian Tomb Raider Movie, with the grounds shaking, some breaking and opening up bigger holes, all the while heavy dangerous stones and objects fell from above.

But maybe the terrifying part she encountered was when the ground suddenly became slanted into a slope, causing her to fall on her b.u.t.t and slide down in horror.

She found she and the one on her back had been selected from the rest.

"Your majesty!!!"

Those above screamed, seeing Lucy slide down into some sloppy h.e.l.l-hole.

"Go!!!..."

Cough. Cough. Cough~

Lucy coughed. "I'll catch up with you later."

"Your maje--"

"I said go!!... That is an order!"

Lucy commanded, and those above had no choice but to obey.

They also understood they had a duty to take the other women outside safely too.

Everyone thinned their lips and fled the scene, leaving the duo to their fates.

But despite their worry, they also knew her majesty would be able to handle herself just fine.

And sure enough, they were right.

.

"You okay, back there?"

"..." Silence...

The one on her back must have been so frightened that she pa.s.sed out.

"Well then..."

Lucy dusted her b.u.t.t, took out a glow stick, and shook it vigorously.

Green.

The glow stick was green.

Good lighting!

She secured the one on her back together and began her rock climbing on the already shaky walls.

Bam!

More objects from above fell. And at some point, half of the ceiling s.p.a.ce above her dropped all at once.

But luckily, she had already begun her ascent.

Hup!

Lucy leaped forward like a monkey, jumping upwards in big steps.

Bam!

She punched and molded her own secure buildings on the walls with her supernatural strength while also jumping from side to side to avoid any falling dangers.

Up we go...1, 2, 3.

In no time, Miss Lara Croft had successfully climbed back to her starting point.

Only this time, more than 7/10th of the path was broken or covered.

Her journey wasn't going to be easy, but what choice did she have?

The more she delayed, the more buried the underground palace would be.

And just like that, Lucy began fitting herself through any s.p.a.ces she could find.

Over there! And there!

There! There! There!

Her eyes became sharp, rus.h.i.+ng for any opening she could find.

.

Roll, jump, crawl, climb up piles of rubble, slide...

Lucy acted like a true raider.

And soon, her efforts all paid off.

She could see it!

The giant room with several hallways shooting out from it!

The giant hall-like room also had a ma.s.sive exit tunnel at its far back.

Lucy looked around and saw no less than 8 hallways similar to the one she just fled out of.

And sure enough, she also saw some of her people, as well as the enemy fleeing out of these paths too.

But this wasn't the time to be merry.

The entire hall was coming down, and they hadn't escaped just yet.

What was more annoying were these Morgs who were still trying to fight them at a time kike this.

Oh, for the love of G.o.d.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

She and the rest quickly took their silencers and shot these morons to death.

Honestly... Can't they see that this isn't the time for this?

Priority, people!... Priority.

Lucy rolled her eyes, looking at the men who died with shocked expressions.

"Everyone, get moving now! Leave no man behind!"

Right!

The capable Baymardians aided their comrades, dragging those with sprained legs, and injured bodies into the ma.s.sive exit tunnel.

Looking at the destruction behind, Lucy felt her heart drum uncontrollably.

And with quick actions, she opened her arm guard and submitted her communications.

[Bravo team out and counted for. All heads accounted for!]

[Omega team out... 3 members lost!]

[Dasher team out... 7 members lost!]

[Rudolf Team out!... No members lost!]

Lucy listened with a grim expression.

Today... some died.
