Chapter 5776 \ The sprawling underground space— seemed to go silent instantly, and only the sound of the trickling lava beneath could be heard.
Eventually, the heat in the air began to cool offaswell.
Whew! Seeing as it had been silent for a while, Veron and Bowen exchanged a glance from where they had been hiding in the crack before walking out carefully.
Had they all died? Seeing as there was no one in sight, Veron began to tremble in fear. The flames of the Three-legged Golden Birds had been powerful enough to turn all the black armored army riders into ash— she had seen it for herself.
| Thus, it was entirely possible that the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtbirds had wiped out everyone else present.
Veron was of the opinion that Janoff; Tyson and all of their men had been burned to death. She did not know that Janoff and Tyson had escaped.
"They're gone," Bowen mused as he took a deep breath, scanning his surroundings.
"t looks like the Three-legged Golden Birds burned them all to death." ' As he spoke, Bowen cast a wary glance at the stone walls around him. "How strange, where did those golden birds go?" Him and Veron had not dared to peek out in the slightest when they had been hiding in the wall, and did not know what had just happened at all.
Veron said in a light voice, "I'm not too sure. They must have gone back into the lava." Whew!
Bowen took a deep breath, scrambling to say, "Well, let's get out of here while we can." As he spoke, he could not help 4G stealing a glance at the magical bow on the stone ledge.
He would be lying if he said he didn't | want the magical bow at all. Yet seeing as so many people had died trying to get it, he was probably better off not thinking about it.
Veron nodded, moving to leave with Bowen.
Oh? Yet as they left, Veron could not help but look at the magical bow one last time as well— and stopped short at the sight. She could clearly see that the nine glowing dots on the bow were now gone.
Veron was a smart woman, and immediately realized something was up.
She turned to Bowen, shouting excitedly, "Hold up! Look, the glowing dots are
gone. Does that mean the nine golden birds left this place?" At the words, Bowen turned around-to look, and saw that the glowing spots were indeed gone. He was no fool either, and understood something instantly. "Are you planning on taking the magical bow, Ninth Lady?" "Of course." Veron replied without hesitation. "Who ' wouldn't want to get their hands on such a powerful weapon? It seems that we're pretty lucky. Those golden birds killed everyone else, and ended up helping us out." As she spoke, Veron was unable to hide her glee as she soared into the air joyously before landing onto the stone ledge.

fear that the nine golden birds might make an appearance again.
Bowen got a shock as he landed onto the ’ ledge. "Oh? There's writing on here." All that could be seen was that the nine | glowing dots on the back of the bow were now gone, but a single word in ancient | scripture appeared.
Veron understood it at first glance.
"That's ancient scripture for the word ' ‘Sunset’. I can't believe Janoff was right about everything." Bowen grew excited at the words immediately, cracking a smile. "Oh boy, this really is the bow Emperor Houyi used to take down the suns!" Veron nodded, reaching out to close her fingers around the bow. Warmth flooded into her palm immediately, and the heat from before disappeared. It was obvious that with the exit of the nine golden birds guarding the bow, the searing heat of it
was also gone.
Veron fiddled with the bow, attempting "to lift it off the ground before frowning.
| "Gosh, it's heavy. You lift it." The Sunset Bow was more than a hundred and fifty centimeters long, almost as tall as Veron if it was propped up vertically.
The sight of her petite figure trying to lift the giant bow made for an amusing sight, and Bowen could not help but chuckle. He called out, reaching out to grasp the bow.
"I'm not sure when those birds will be back. Let's get out of here." As he spoke, he tugged on Veron's hand and the pair soared towards the exit above together.
