Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
This time, Bruce redeemed a total of three points.
He redeemed one point for a fire extinguisher, and two points for Icy Flurry.
Icy Flurry description: the host’s palm can form an ice crystal tornado. When emitted, it has a small amount of freezing effect that is accompanied by a gust of strong wind.
This was the tool and skill that Bruce could find in the shortest amount of time.
Even if there were better skills, Bruce did not have the time to check them out one by one.
Moreover, Icy Flurry had the dual attributes of wind and ice, which was very useful for the current situation.
After learning the skill, Bruce immediately used it.
A small ice crystal vortex instantly gathered in his hands and blasted towards a direction.
Boom!
The ice crystals in his palm formed a windy vortex and rushed towards the fire.
There was a cooling sensation as a massive hole appeared in the midst of the black smoke. The surroundings of the black smoke also became chaotic.
It worked!
It was definitely useful.
He was now by the window, he could see the firefighters sprinting upstairs. As long as he used Icy Flurry, he could definitely hold on.
As for the bedroom, he could wait for the firefighters to come up and let them think of a way tp deal with it.
What he needed to do now was to drive all the smoke out.
Although he had been using Breath-holding Mobility, the smoke would still eventually enter his body, and it was still not good for his lungs.
So Bruce sprinted through the smoke and stood in a corner.
“Ice Flurry!”
“Ice Flurry!”
“Ice Flurry!”
Multiple strikes later, holes appeared above the black smoke, the smoke left through the windows.
The room instantly became much cooler.
‘It works!’
‘It definitely works!’
Knock! Knock! Knock!
The firemen had arrived upstairs and were knocking on the door.
Bruce opened the door. The firemen did not say a word, they were planning on taking him away.
Bruce — who had become physically stronger — dodged the fireman in a flash.
“What are you doing!”
“Come out with me quickly, I’m here to save you!”
The fireman shouted anxiously when he saw Bruce dodging him.
The other firemen behind him had already rushed up to the fifth floor with water pipes. They were all his teammates, so they must plan to put out the fire together.
Besides, this place was very dangerous. He did not understand why Bruce was still here.
What was so important that made him so stubborn?!
“My bedroom’s door isn’t open, but black smoke is coming out from the crack of the door. Help me rescue the bedroom first!”
Bruce first changed the topic of rescuing himself to the fire.
“What!?”
When the firemen heard the this, he immediately understood the seriousness of the matter. He followed Bruce to the door of the bedroom without a word.
The fire inside seemed like it cannot be suppressed. They could vaguely see small flames creeping out from the crack of the door.
“Good job. Luckily you didn’t open this door. Otherwise, the entire fourth floor would have been burned down!”
The fireman looked at the situation and said, “Leave the rest to me. Can you go down and escape on your own?!”
Bruce shook his head. “I won’t leave. If anything, you better hurry up and put out the fire. Time waits for no man.”
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for overcoming the F-rank house-leaving crisis. 1 point rewarded!”
They were in a deadlock for about two to three seconds, the fireman did not say a word and began his work.
Bruce stood at the side and continued using Icy Flurry to expel the black smoke.
When the fireman saw this, his eyes were filled with shock. “What are you doing!!?”
“It’s just a little bit of effort. If you have time to notice me, why don’t you put out the fire quickly?!”
Bruce didn’t have time to pay attention to his shock. If the house was burned down, he would waste time and money to find a new house. It was not worth it for Bruce, as he was just starting out, so he didn’t want to give up just like that.
As long as the firemen could save his bedroom, everything would be solved.
The firemen finally regained his composure.
Although he was filled with shock because of Bruce, he started working regardless.
The bedroom was already on fire.
Even if the door got opened, it wouldn’t have any effect.
Without hesitation, the fireman pushed the door open. A wave of heat rushed over. He immediately used his fire hose to extinguish the flames.
The powerful water pressure dwindled the flames. Bruce identified the source of the fire, so the flames could still be put out even when it was strong.
The black smoke was still rising, but the flames in the bedroom had already been put out.
Bruce took a closer look. There appeared to be a lot of smoke and strong flames, but the area that was actually burning was only the part of the twin-sized bed.
This made Bruce feel much more at ease.
Seeing this, the firemen planned to continue to take Bruce out of the house. He still could not believe what Bruce had just shot out of his palm.
He could only convince himself that everything that had just happened was an illusion.
“Quick, let’s leave now. The fire upstairs will definitely get bigger. You will be in danger if continue to stay here.”
The fireman offered to help Bruce.
Bruce took a step back to indicate his refusal.
“Ding! Congratulations to the host for overcoming the F-rank house-leaving crisis. 1 point rewarded!”
“If that’s the case, remember to shut the doors tightly after I leave. Don’t go out, understand? !”
“Okay, you can go ahead and leave.”
Bruce nodded and closed the door immediately after the firemen left.
There was no fire in the house now.
However, the billowing black smoke was still rising, Bruce ran to the window and took large gulps of air.
He used Breath-holding Mobility and reduced the amount of black smoke inhaled, but that did not mean that he could constantly move around in the black smoke.
“Look! Mr. Bruce still hasn’t come out! Didn’t the fire rescue reach him?!”
Suddenly, a neighbor who saw Bruce who was still in the house shouted, which attracted the puzzled gazes from everyone.
“What’s the situation?! Why does Mr. Bruce insist on staying in the house?!”
“It’s so dangerous, what’s he doing? !”
“The firemen must have gone to him, but they encountered some danger in the between. He must be trapped in the house now.”
The neighbors were discussing anxiously. They guessed that Bruce might have walked out by now, so he was looking for the a way out by the window.
Annie was also worried she fell to the ground instantly, tears were streaming down her face uncontrollably, “Bruce!”
Her loud shout caught the attention of Bruce.
Then, while he was under everyone’s shocked gazes, he smiled at Annie and said, “I’m fine, see you later!”
With that, Bruce’s figure disappeared into the black smoke once again.
This moment left a deep impression in everyone’s mind!
It looked like he was fine?!
Was he actually able to extinguish fires like Sakamoto?!
