Tian Yu only hoped that the huge monster under her didn't notice her. She couldn't think of a better way to escape from its range, so she could only swim forward with all her might.

His heartbeat was getting faster and faster, and even in the water, Tian Yu felt his hair stand on end. It was a feeling of despair that he could not resist even with all his strength.

Finally, the huge creature suddenly accelerated. Tian Yu felt that the water flow around her was disturbed by its movements. She was caught in the huge whirlpool caused by the creature stirring the water flow. No matter how hard she tried, she could not resist it at all.

With the overwhelming force of the impact, the monster broke out of the water in an instant, and the water flow it brought pulled Tian Yu, who was above it, out of the water.

When the impact force carried Tian Yu into the air, she saw the monster's strange head that looked like a giant catfish. Its scaly body stood upright on the water, like a lizard or a giant python.

Tian Yu was thrown into the air. The monster let out a strange roar as a huge thunderclap sounded. It caused Tian Yu's eardrums to hurt so much that blood seemed to flow from her mouth and nose. She felt her stomach churning. Before her eyes turned completely dark, she felt her body falling rapidly, and the monster's figure became distant.

At the northern end of the Aesop River, there is a waterfall that is a hundred meters high!

Tian Yu only had time to activate his last shield before he completely lost consciousness...

"Is she really still alive, Fena?"

"She's still breathing, maybe we should feed her some food..."

While in a coma, Tian Yu could hear two childish voices talking to each other, but her body seemed to no longer obey the command of her consciousness and she would fall asleep again after a while.

"I'll go to the city gate tomorrow to see if there's any job openings, so you can have some bread, Lina."

"The family in the next shack seemed to have contracted some infectious disease. Today, a guard came and burned them alive..."

"She has been sleeping for so many days, will she really wake up?"

Intermittent conversations would occasionally reach Tian Yu's ears. She didn't know how much time had passed. She only felt that her body was slowly recovering, but the speed was too slow to support her waking up.

"Feed this to her, Lina. This winter is too cold. I may not be able to find more food..."

Tian Yu felt something warm being put into her mouth. This was the first time she had felt touch in a long time.

Perhaps because she was lying down, the liquid couldn't flow into her throat well. Tian Yu felt like she was choking. She could hardly breathe. Her strong survival instinct made her try to cough out the thing.

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Lina was feeding soup to the person she and her brother Fena found by the river. She had been drowsy from autumn to winter, and she had never made any other movements or sounds except breathing during these days.

Lina and her brother were already living in extreme poverty. After fleeing outside Silvermoon City, they could only barely make ends meet. However, the God of Light taught His followers not to give up on the lives of others, so they would save some of the little rice soup they had every day and feed it to this man.

Just now, the stranger who had been sleeping suddenly coughed, which surprised Lina.

Tian Yu leaned on the straw mat in the shack, which could not even be called a bed, and silently looked at the little girl in front of him.

Her pale and thin face showed that she had not had a full meal for a long time. The other party was very surprised when she woke up, but he stopped his movements abruptly after meeting her vigilant eyes, and twisted his tattered clothes in fear.

The other party was standing uncomfortably in the dilapidated shack, not daring to look up and meet Tian Yu's gaze.

The environment in this shack was extremely poor. There was not a single decent thing to be found. Some places were even leaking wind. There were some tattered objects on the ground. There was only a fire burning next to the straw mat where Tian Yu was lying.

Tian Yu wanted to speak, but his throat was so dry that he couldn't make any sound. The two of them just stood and lay there in silence.

"Lina! Look what I found--" Someone pulled open the curtain of the shack and came in. It was a young man who looked two or three years older than the girl. When he saw Tian Yu wake up, his voice stopped abruptly.

......

"You picked me up by the river?" Tian Yu asked after taking a sip of warm water.

After the young Feina came back, the awkward situation was finally eased, and Tian Yu also knew her situation. She was now in a slum one kilometer outside Yinyue City, and the people who saved her were two siblings.

They fled here from the north of Silvermoon City two months ago. As the war escalated, their hometown and relatives disappeared in the flames of war. Half a month after arriving in Silvermoon City, they found the seriously injured Tian Yu by the stream outside the city.

The two have believed in the God of Light since childhood, and did not choose to turn a blind eye to Tian Yu, a burden.

"May light bring hope." At dinner time that day, the two prayed to a pot of clear porridge on the firewood.

Hearing this, Tian Yu looked strange: "Where are you from?"

"Inunnat." Fina handed the thin porridge with only a few grains of rice to Tian Yu.

Innunut is a region where everyone believes in the God of Light. To the north of it, on the snowy mountains, is the Tower of Light.

Has the war spread there? Why hasn't the Tower of Light taken any action? This doesn't fit Tian Yu's impression of the Tower of Light.

He touched his neck, but the pendant that was supposed to be there was gone.

"Have you seen my personal belongings?" Tian Yu felt a chill in his heart and asked.

"Are you talking about this?" Lina stood up and took out a tattered piece of clothing and handed it to Tian Yu, "Everything is here."

Tian Yu turned over the top layer of clothes that had turned white due to being soaked in the river water, and found the pendant wrapped inside intact.

"You were injured, so I had to take these things down." Lina explained nervously, "I didn't mess with anything of yours!"

"I believe you, don't be nervous." Tian Yu put on the pendant and felt the passage to the safe house.

She had an idea and took out three bread rolls and a piece of bacon. When the two siblings saw her behavior, they couldn't help but widen their eyes.

"Eat." Tian Yu handed the bacon and bread to the two of them.

Feiner took small bites of the bread. He hadn't eaten such good food for a long time, not to mention the fragrant bacon. His eyes were a little wide at the moment, but he still suppressed his desire for food and bowed respectfully to Tian Yu: "Thank you for your generosity. May the God of Light always bless you."

Lina also followed her brother's actions and expressed her gratitude to Tian Yu.

In the perception of extrasensory perception, the two siblings have always exuded a gentle aura, which reminded Tian Yu of the light in his own ability as the Knight of Light.

"Excuse me, are you a magician? I have seen magicians take out objects like this before." Lina asked curiously.

"No." It seemed that the two children didn't know what the pendant meant.

She stretched out her hand. Her weak body could only mobilize a little power, but a soft golden light still appeared: "I am a Knight of Light."

The two children forgot about the food in their hands for a moment, and their eyes gradually became moist as they looked at Tian Yu's right hand.
