Ethan originally didn't want to save anyone.
But after considering that this girl named Nini actually possessed this kind of skill, maybe it was worth learning from her (using her).
"Grand Fire Rain!"
Against such a huge number of Ghost-faced Moths, the fastest way to deal with them was naturally an area attack skill.
And Ethan currently didn't know many area attack skills. Grand Fireball was the only one.
BOOM!
BOOM! BOOM!
Countless Grand Fire Rain fireballs fell down and directly killed large numbers of Ghost-faced Moths.
Unfortunately, even after killing so many Ghost-faced Moths, the experience value for Grand Fire Rain barely increased. After all, the experience value for the Grand Fireball Technique wasn't calculated based on how many monsters you killed, but by how many times you cast it.
Even if Ethan cast it seven times in one night, he would only gain seventy experience points.
[Grand Fireball Technique - Level 4: Experience 450/1000]
The leveling speed was insanely slow.
Unlike the Eight Forms of God-Slaying, which gained experience just by killing monsters.
If the Grand Fireball Technique leveled the same way as the Eight Forms of God-Slaying, he probably would've maxed it out already.
Flutter~ Flutter~
Under Ethan's bombardment attack, the Ghost-faced Moths that had been stirred up by the cutting down of the Blade Trees finally began retreating.
At first, only one Ghost-faced Moth flew away.
But immediately afterward, a whole group followed behind it, as if that first moth was the leader of migrating geese.
But actually, it wasn't.
Because Ghost-faced Moths were a swarm-type insect, once one Ghost-faced Moth performed some special behavior, the others would all follow.
"Brother Idris! Sister Nana!"
The Ghost-faced Moths came quickly, and left quickly too.
After they all flew away, only a scene of wreckage remained, along with two people lying on the ground half dead.
The man was already dead.
There was no saving him.
As for the woman... Ethan saw that Nana had already been disemboweled by those giant Ghost-faced Moths. Her intestines had spilled all over the ground.
But her life force was extremely strong. Even though her stomach had been torn open and her intestines destroyed, she still hadn't fully died. She only stretched out a blood-covered hand and touched Nini's head as she said, "Nini, after your sister is gone, you have to live well..."
"Your talent is very good... but because it's too good..."
"That's why I never dared let you learn too many things. I kept hiding things and refusing to let you study because I was afraid people would... become jealous..."
"But starting from now... you'll probably need to learn as much as possible..."
"Because only then... will you have..."
"Have a place within the mountain sect."
"Sister Nana, I won't let anything happen to you!", Tears poured from Nini's eyes while countless rays of white light gathered in her hands, "You'll definitely get better! You'll definitely be okay!"
"Nini doesn't want to learn anything. I can give everything up, I can refuse to learn anything!"
"I just want Sister Nana to live!"
As Nini crazily poured in mental power, the white light in her hands turned into a dazzling sphere of light.
"It's useless... I can feel it..."
Nana's voice also became weaker and weaker.
Hearing that, Nini cried even harder and said, "No! Absolutely not! I've healed many people before, I'll definitely heal you too, Sister Nana!"
After saying that, Nini pushed the sphere of light into Nana's wound.
The healing effect of the light sphere was indeed impressive. The wound visibly began healing at a rapid speed.
Countless strands of flesh grew and intertwined, gradually shrinking the wound.
"Sister Nana, the wound really is healing! Really!! Look!!"
"Cough! Cough!"
Nana coughed while smiling and said, "Our Nini really is amazing! But this is enough now, really. Stop wasting your mental power on me anymore."
"I won't!"
Nini shouted and desperately continued pouring healing light into Nana's body.
But as Nana's life force rapidly drained away, the speed of her wound healing also became slower and slower. Some wounds that had already healed even split open again.
The flesh buds inside had already started shrinking, looking like dead flesh.
"H... Hero!"
When Nana saw Ethan walk over, she quickly called out to him.
Ethan lowered his head and looked down at Nana. He and this woman could only be considered casual acquaintances. They had no real relationship at all, so although he felt a bit of regret, he didn't care enough to be deeply concerned.
"Mm,"
Ethan answered coldly.
Nana only forced out a difficult smile and said, "I'm going to die."
"I know. Then?"
"Can you help me take... care of my younger sister?"
"Sister Nana, I don't want someone else taking care of me!", Nini lay on Nana's body and cried loudly, "I can take care of myself. I just want Sister Nana to recover! Sister Nana, stop talking already, stop talking!!"
However, Nini's words were directly ignored. Ethan only asked one question in return.
"Why should I?"
"I... I won't let you take care of her for nothing," Nana kept smiling, though her face looked pale, "The shoes... on my feet... they're called Skywalk. As long as you pour mental power into them, you can walk through the air. I'll give them to you."
"Not enough," Ethan shook his head.
But Nana seemed to have already expected that. There was no anger or disappointment on her face. She simply continued, "Inside my backpack... there's a Skill Copy Blueprint... although it can only be used once, it definitely won't disappoint you."
"Nini is a very talented child... if you can take good care of her, then you'll be able to... obtain skills from her."
"This is... something that benefits both sides..."
Nana's voice had already become weak to the extreme.
