Douluo Continent: Gretchen at the start, empowered by the Star God.

Chapter 134 Helpless?

"Oh, okay!" Little Ellie didn't know what was wrong with Lang Lei all of a sudden, but she still chose to believe him.

Lang Lei turned his back and walked to the door, leaving space for Xiao Aili and keeping watch at the same time.

Just now, Lang Lei saw a purple pattern flash across his hand. Although it disappeared quickly, it was a bad sign.

Lang Lei was naturally well aware of this phenomenon.

Although his physical body was not seriously injured, his soul power was unknowingly corrupted and eroded!

It's no wonder it's Honkai energy; it managed to erode his soul power without him even realizing it in a short time.

This also leads to a worrying conclusion: acquiring power did not make his soul power immune to Honkai energy; his original Honkai energy resistance was likely not very strong...

This is not good news.

Lang Lei immediately began to mobilize his soul power to fight against the Honkai energy erosion, but it was clear that soul power was no match for Honkai energy.

Within Lang Lei's body, his absolute home turf, he still needed to mobilize several times more soul power than Honkai energy to suppress the erosion and actively extinguish the soul power that had already been eroded.

What's even more terrifying is that the portion of soul power that Lang Lei mobilized to resist the Honkai energy's erosion will also be eroded. Isn't that just too unfair?

Fortunately, Lang Lei's recovery ability was greatly enhanced, which was enough to barely maintain the state of his martial soul from deteriorating.

Furthermore, the spiritual power of He Sanjing (God King level) also played a role at this time, maintaining the stability of the connection between Lang Lei's body and his martial soul.

"It seems we need to find a way to transform the cultivation system as soon as possible."

The Martial Soul is a container for Soul Power. Since the Soul Power has been eroded, the current state of the Martial Soul will likely be affected to some extent.

Of course, the second martial soul, Heavenly Fire Judgment, will most likely have little impact.

Lang Lei tried to activate his first martial soul, the Ancient Dragon Element. He felt a blockage in the flow of soul power, but it was still generally usable.

It seems that under the influence of Honkai energy, the combat power of Soul Masters of the same level against Honkai Beasts may automatically decrease by 30% to 100%.

However, the most urgent thing was to figure out where to run. With this in mind, Lang Lei closed his eyes and began to feel the flow of energy in the air.

Half a minute later, Lang Lei had an answer: he had to run out of the city. The center of the Honkai outbreak was likely the city center, so the best option now was to run to the surrounding countryside.

Just then, Little Ellie changed back into her usual clothes and patted Lang Lei on the shoulder: "Brother Du, I'm all changed~"

"Okay, let's get out of here quickly." Lang Lei nodded and pulled Xiao Aili to run outside.

"Brother Du, what happened?" Little Ellie didn't struggle, but asked curiously instead.

"A disaster is about to break out, and we need to evacuate to a safe place immediately," Lang Lei explained.

"No wonder I have this inexplicable feeling of unease. But those people..." Little Ellie hesitated, for some reason, she could sense that this crisis was not simple.

This wasn't the first time Little Ellie had encountered a Honkai eruption on her journey to find Paradise. It wasn't the next moment; Little Ellie already knew what was about to happen.

Perhaps this is the intuition of one who belongs to the Primordial Law?

"Ellie, you can't save everyone," Lang Lei stated, presenting a harsh truth.

The Honkai outbreak occurred at night, and many people were probably already asleep. If we waited for the Honkai energy concentration to continue to rise, most people would probably be mercilessly taken away in their dreams.

Moreover, they are unlikely to believe the words of a child they don't know, let alone abandon their money and run for their lives.

"But..." Little Ellie remembered playing during the day. The sun on the beach shone on the happy people, and their joyful smiles seemed even more dazzling than the sunlight.

"Brother Du, I've had a really great time spending with you these past few days..." Little Ai Li suddenly stopped, and Lang Lei, who hadn't used much force, also stopped abruptly.

He suddenly had a bad feeling.

"Why bring this up all of a sudden?" Lang Lei already had the answer in his mind, but he still asked.

"I want to do something... If I do nothing, I might, no, I definitely will regret it for the rest of my life!" Little Ellie's tone gradually became firm.

"Brother Du, thank you for your companionship during this time. I can't let my decision drag you down, so please, you must live on!"

If we find paradise…

After saying that, Little Ellie went back to her room and called the hotel front desk. Although she was young, she wasn't stupid and knew that this was much faster than knocking on each door one by one.

Lang Lei stood there stunned for a long time before giving a wry smile.

If she really ran away, that wouldn't be like Alicia, would it?

A pure and innocent girl...

Isn't it precisely because of this that he, who is already so despicable, likes her so much?

His intervention has altered a part of Alicia's fate, so he must also take responsibility...

You can't go back on your word, and you must fulfill the vows you've made!

The next moment, Lang Lei unfurled his Courage Dragon Wings, and the golden light on them seemed even more dazzling.

……

"Please believe me, I'm not lying!"

Inside the room, Xiao Aili was arguing with the hotel receptionist, and the outcome was exactly as Lang Lei had predicted.

If this hotel weren't so expensive and the staff weren't generally so professional, the hotel receptionist would probably have already started yelling.

"How could this be..."

A little while later, Xiao Aili put down the landline in the room, looking somewhat dazed.

However, she didn't stay down for more than a few seconds before Alicia cheered herself up again.

"Someone will believe it, they definitely will!"

"Fool……"

Suddenly, Little Ellie felt a "whoosh" and was embraced by a familiar figure. Looking around, the two of them were now in the sky above the city.

"Okay, okay..." Little Ellie opened her mouth wide, not knowing what to say for a moment.

"Isn't he handsome?" Lang Lei smiled.

"Mmm!" Little Ellie didn't ask Lang Lei any questions. All she knew at that moment was that her brother had come to help her, and that was enough!

"Who would believe someone like you?" Lang Lei said as he flew toward the city center.

"But what should we do?" Little Ellie asked, her voice tinged with a hint of grievance.

"Of course, we should present the disaster to them and let them realize for themselves that they should run for their lives..."

In the blink of an eye, Lang Lei flew with Xiao Aili to the city center. Coincidentally, it was a large park, and in the center of the park was a not-so-small lake.

"With this concentration, a Temple-class Honkai Beast should be born soon, right?" Lang Lei muttered to himself. He had already seen a Breakthrough-class Honkai Beast flying around.

The elemental dragon appeared behind Lang Lei, and together with the soul power used to resist the Honkai energy erosion, Lang Lei's soul power was fully utilized for the first time.

"Alright, little Ellie, watch closely, the power of nature..."
