“Bob!”, Chloe shouted when she saw Bob fall into the tunnel.
She rushed to the side of the tunnel and wanted to jump down to save Bob, but she was stopped by Sophia as soon as she reached the side of the tunnel.
“Do you want to die? There are devouring rats down there. You will be eaten by them!”, Sophia shouted anxiously.
“I brought him out of the orphanage. I can’t just watch him die. Even if he dies, I have to save him.”, Chloe said sadly.
“No, I can’t watch you die too.”, Sophia held Chloe tightly. She didn’t want her life to be wasted.
“Let me go down and save him.”, Chloe watched Bob being drowned by the devouring rats. Tears couldn’t stop flowing down her face.
“Get out of the way, let me do it.”, Hubert shouted. He conjured a huge Holy Light Shield with both hands and jumped down from the entrance of the tunnel.
“Be careful!”, the people around screamed.
Hubert fell right next to Bob.
As soon as Hubert landed, the devouring rats pounced on him and tried to bite off a piece of his flesh.
However, Hubert ignored them. Instead, he reached into the group of devouring rats and scooped Bob out.
After grabbing Bob, three pairs of wings spread on Hubert’s back. He soared into the air and rushed out of the tunnel with Bob.
A few devouring rats were unwilling to let the fat meat near their mouths be saved just like that. They jumped up and wanted to grab Hubert.
Hubert conjured a Holy Light Bomb in his hand and killed these devouring rats one by one.
“Quickly throw the gasoline barrels down.”, Hubert shouted to the crowd.
The crowd immediately pushed the gasoline barrels down.
Hubert took out a windproof lighter from his pocket, lit it, and threw it down.
Boom!
A ball of burning flame rose in the tunnel. The scorching flame swallowed the devouring rats that were still in the tunnel and burned all of them.
Seeing this, the remaining devouring rats fled into the distance, not daring to stay near the tunnel.
After a fierce battle, Hubert finally led the people in the church to repel the attack of the devouring rats.
Seeing that the passage had been sealed by the flames and that the devouring rats in the church had been eliminated by Sophia and her people, Hubert brought Bob and landed on the ground.
Hubert put Bob on the ground and began to check on Bob’s injuries.
A large area of Bob’s body had been bitten by the devouring rats. 80% of his skin had been gnawed on, especially his two legs. Almost half of his flesh had been eaten, and even his bones could be seen. If it was based on normal modern medical treatment, it would probably require amputation.
“How is it? Can it be treated?”, Chloe rushed in front of Hubert and asked.
The orphans who had come out of the orphanage also looked at Hubert with expectant eyes.
“Don’t worry, normal medical treatment might not work, but leave it to me.”
Hubert said as he cast a Holy Light Healing Spell on Bob.
A ray of holy light shone on Bob’s body.
The wounds on Bob’s body began to heal rapidly, and even the devoured muscles slowly grew back.
After ten minutes of treatment, Bob miraculously recovered.
His body was intact as if he had never been injured.
“Where are we? Why are you all looking at me?”, Bob slowly opened his eyes and looked at the pairs of eyes staring at him curiously.
“Bob, I’m so glad that you’re okay!”, Chloe hugged Bob and cried excitedly.
Bob calmed down and recalled what had just happened.
“Didn’t I fall into the tunnel? I remember being drowned by the devouring rats. They kept biting me. Why am I here now? Did you beat the devouring rats back? What about the wounds on my body?”, Bob asked curiously.
“The devouring rats were beaten back. You were saved by Lord Hubert from the tunnel. Lord Hubert also healed your wounds.”, Chloe said.
“Thank you, Lord Hubert.”. After knowing what had happened, Bob knelt down on one knee in front of Hubert, “Lord Hubert, Bob is willing to follow you forever. No matter if it’s heaven or hell, as long as Lord Hubert is there, Bob will definitely follow.”
As Bob spoke, a blue mist emerged from Bob’s body and entered Hubert’s body.
Hubert felt that this was a pure power of faith. This faith was even comparable to ten portions of power of faith.
This power of faith made Hubert feel that his strength had increased again.
“Get up. Although your injuries have healed, you still need to rest. Go back to your room and rest.”, Hubert said to Bob, Hubert said to the people in the hall, “Everyone take turns to rest. The number of people on duty tonight has doubled. I’ll take care of this place. The devouring rat won’t come again tonight.”
“Yes, sir.”, hearing Hubert’s order, everyone dispersed and went back to take turns to rest.
Hubert sat at the entrance of the passage and began to sort out his gains.
Just now, other than Bob’s power of faith, he had also obtained some other people’s power of faith. Now, Hubert had already collected 62 portions of the power of faith. He was already more than half done with the 100 portions of power of faith required to level up, he believed that he would be able to successfully advance to level 3 in a short period of time.
“An advanced bloodline is great. In just a few short days, I’ll level up to level 3. Thinking back, the minotaur bloodline I obtained back then took me five years to reach to level 3. It’s really incomparable.”
Thinking of this, Hubert shook his head. “I really don’t know what new skills will appear after I advance to level 3.”
After letting his thoughts run wild for a while, Hubert began to inspect the God Forsaken Armor on his body.
He had killed quite a number of devouring rats with his own hands just now.
Although the soul quality of the devouring rats wasn’t that great, they were born in large numbers. They could completely unseal the first layer of the God Forsaken Armor.
The God Forsaken Armor that had opened the first layer of the seal covered the entire body. As long as Hubert was willing, Hubert wouldn’t have an inch of his skin exposed from head to toe.
Not only that, the God Forsaken Armor’s defense was extremely high. Even if someone used an anti-material sniper rifle to fire at Hubert, Hubert would still be safe and sound.
“Simply perfect.”, Hubert waved his fist forcefully.
This time, with the God Forsaken Armor as a defense, he no longer had to be afraid of the devouring rats.
Now, even if he stood in the midst of the devouring rats and let the devouring rats bite him, the devouring rats would not be able to hurt him at all.
Hubert clenched his fist forcefully. “Hmph, devouring rats, you actually dare to attack my church. This time, I will definitely find your nest and make sure that you have no place in the entire St. Louis City!”
