Chapter 670: The Blessed Izumo and the Red Eirin
The walls of the village are not rocks, but are made of the branches of felled trees, which is good news, at least because the lives of many of the buried villagers are not in danger. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Juveniles are also in this range.
Rising from the rubble, the boy patted his clothes, patted the sawdust off his body, and then turned his gaze to the burning beast.
At this moment, the behemoth was surrounded by flames, and the entire area was filled with heat. Trees close to the mountain began to spontaneously combust, and the unbearable beasts began to flee.
But there is no escape from humanity.
This is their village and their refuge, and once abandoned, they are a herd of lambs to the slaughter until a new village is built.
Maybe they are not afraid of the little monsters, but when they encounter any big monsters, it is the rhythm of catching them all.
As for running separately, how far can a weak human being run?
Of course, if they had to do so, they would have given up on the village, and there was some hope, wouldn't they? But what if such a huge flaming beast had abandoned the village? With the human footsteps, even if they ran for half a day first, others would catch up in a moment.
At this moment, the flames on the giant beast's body turned into a ball of fire, and shot out directly, blasting behind the entire village.
Suddenly, there was a miserable wail.
Now, there is no need to worry about whether to run away or not, the spreading flames directly blocked the last hope of the villagers to escape.
A sense of powerlessness welled up in their hearts. Despair began to pervade.
Who can save them?
I don't know when such a question appeared in the hearts of the villagers.
At first, it was just a few people, but soon, this problem arose in the minds of most of the villagers.
But after a while, they all got the answer: it is impossible to be rescued, no one can save them, and the big monster at the apex of the current youkai is not something that humans can defeat.
[So, the only one who can save them is the gods, right?] Such an idea appeared.
The wish of all beings is faith, and with the concentration of the thoughts of all the people in such a large village, the power of faith appears.
However, this wisp of faith is only a rootless pinch, and what they pray for is the concept of gods, and the power of faith without a specific object will eventually disappear.
And it was at this time that a different thought appeared.
It was not a prayer for salvation, but anger, anger against the flaming beast, and reluctance against oneself.
The boy was not as desperate as the others, because he could have run away.
He's a half-demon, if you're deliberate, it's not a problem to disguise yourself as a monster, he's not a weak human, and he's able to live alone even in the wild.
But he didn't want to.
Although he was always ostracized by the villagers, the villagers never thought of persecuting him.
Here, this village, is his home.
He wanted to fight off the flame beast and save everyone, but he didn't have the strength to do anything like that.
Unwillingness, anger, such thoughts suddenly appeared in the pure power of faith, like a conduit, and the thoughts that wanted to save everyone became the introduction.
The power of faith hangs upside down like a funnel!
The pillar of light rises!
Birth of a god!
If you see this pillar of light from a distance, something might happen. But many villagers below witnessed this scene with their own eyes, and this is the real scene of becoming a god close at hand!
Unlike Shirai Moon, the boy is a god of faith, and he does not have the kind of regular condensation of arms, nor does he have any symbol of divine power, only the layer of light on the surface of his body that constantly flashes to show his identity as a god.
After becoming a god, the boy was a little confused for a while and didn't react, but after seeing the massive fire ball launched by the Flame Behemoth, he still subconsciously used this power.
Because it was the first time to fight with this kind of power, the boy's ability was very young, and he was even caught and hit hard!
However, this is the village where he became a god, and behind him, there are countless villagers who have survived under his blessing to pray for him.
When he was seriously injured, the power of those newborn beliefs continued to flow into him.
The recovered boy gathered his energy again, but before that, heavy walls of earth rose from the ground, trapping the Flame Behemoth inside.
Feeling the growing power in the boy's hands, the giant beast flinched.
Having lost a hand, he was no longer able to interrupt the attack.
After destroying the earthen wall behind him with the flames, the giant beast left at full speed, and if it was directly hit by this thunderous spear, even if he was a big monster with rough skin and thick flesh, he would have to die here.
When the boy saw the giant beast leave, he hurriedly threw out the thunder that had begun to take shape in his hand.
It's a pity that this thunderous spear is not like the stone used by the boy to hunt before, and this distance is far more than the farthest distance that the boy threw before, and this spear was directly thrown crookedly.
The thunder exploded directly on the left side of the behemoth, but because of the distance, it did no damage to the behemoth at all.
The boy did not continue to chase, although the village is still there, but the walls are all collapsed, there is still a burning fire, the villagers are still in danger, now the most important thing is to save people, and rebuild their homes.
Their [Izumo]!
And when the battle on this side is over, the itinerary of Shirai Moon and Yonglin on the other side is about to come to an end.
Herbs, found.
After detouring the mountain road for a long time, Yonglin finally found the location of the herb.
However, no action was taken.
In the middle of the area where the herbs grow, a large and stout tree stood.
If that's all it is, under the big tree, there are piles of animal or human bones, which look very permeable.
Monster.
There is no doubt that this is a youkai.
And it can be seen from its thick branches that it is not a low-level little monster.
This made Yonglin difficult.
She knew that Shirai Yue could repel youkai, but she didn't know what level of youkai Yue could defeat, the deeper into the mountains, the higher the level of the youkai, and their current position was almost halfway up the mountain, which made Yonglin not know whether to let Shirai Yue take the risk.
Seeing Yonglin's concern, Bai Jingyue shrugged her shoulders: "It's okay, as long as we don't get closer, okay?" Walking around this area and only picking medicine at the edge, this tree can't do anything about us." β
Listening to Bai Jingyue's words, Yonglin nodded, although he always felt that something was wrong, but they really needed these herbs very much.
So, Yonglin put down the basket behind her and gently approached the edge of the herb area.
And Bai Jingyue is following behind Yonglin, and the ice wheel pill is already out of the sheath.
Unlike Yonglin, Shirai Yue had long been aware of the anomaly that existed here.
He wasn't afraid of the dryad who had just reached the intermediate level, but if he wanted to protect Yonglin without revealing his strength, it was better to prepare in advance.
As for why he didn't remind Yonglin, where did he remind him to show his heroics?
Well, just kidding.
In fact, no matter whether Bai Jingyue reminds him or not, Yonglin knows whether he knows it or not, and in the end, Yonglin still has to go to collect medicine. This is the hope that can save her stepfather, and she can't give up.
Rather than say it earlier and let Yonglin entangle, it is better to let everything have already happened, and even if it is very dangerous at that time, Yonglin will have to continue.
As for Yonglin's safety, it is impossible for Shirai Yue to have an accident.
Yonglin didn't know Shirai Yue's plans at the moment, and naturally she didn't know what was about to happen, her eyes were all focused on the herbs dangling in the wind in front of her.
Then, he slowly stretched out his hand.
Just as he was about to touch the herbs, Yonglin breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately these herbs also grew on the edges, otherwise he would really have to take the risk.
As soon as he thought of this, Yonglin had a flash of inspiration and thought of what the problem was.
Since she could see the bones under the tree and think of picking herbs from the edge, what about the herb pickers who came here before?
Originally, the herb picker was a very dangerous profession, and she was cautious every time she picked herbs, and it didn't make sense that those predecessors would take risks.
Can't they think of it? Are they all stupid?
Even if they can't think of this method, they won't send them to death themselves, right?
Then the answer is obvious, those who collect medicine are vigilant, and they all use methods that they think are safe to collect medicine.
But they were all dead, and they were all bones under the tree.
After all, who said that the Dryad's attack range can't reach here?
The moment he sensed this problem, Yonglin was about to retreat, but it was too late, and an arm-thick branch suddenly jumped up from the ground and stabbed towards Yonglin's head!
Looking at the tips of the branches that were getting closer and closer, Yonglin was stunned in place, the fear of death was used like a tide, and at this moment, Yonglin thought a lot.
The villagers who are waiting for her in the village, the stepfather who is anxiously waiting for her to save her life, and ...... And the guy who said he wanted to protect her.
At this moment, a flash of light appeared.
At the same time as cutting off the branch, it also cut off Yonglin's fear.
"Moon!"
For some reason, Yonglin shouted the name of the man next to her, was it because of the gratitude for being saved his life, or because of the joy of escaping death? Or was it an inexplicable involvement?
She didn't know. It's just a matter of shouting.
"I'm here. β
Standing in front of Yonglin, Shirai Yue waved her blade and cut off another branch.
At this moment, the dryad had lost its disguise, and at the height of a man's head of the tree, a large mouth had been opened, and the sharp teeth of the trees were covered with dark red spots, which were the blood stains left by its prey, and its branches were constantly dancing.
At this time, Yonglin discovered that the branches of the Dryad were so wide and numerous, and the entire line of sight was dancing branches, and it was estimated that the entire herb area was within the shroud range of the Dryad, and no matter how close to the herb area from any direction, it would be attacked by the Dryad.
Most of the beasts and humans were unable to escape the attack, and after being killed by them, the corpses were dragged back by the dryad with branches to eat.
Today, however, there are exceptions.
Instead of killing its target, the invincible branch was cut off, and the dryad became enraged and used more branches to attack its prey.
Yonglin looked at the attacking branches, and didn't know what to do, retreating? As long as he retreated, he could escape from the Dryad's attack range. But she is not reconciled, she has already come here. And, in front of her, there is another person who says he wants to protect her.
Just as she was hesitating, Bai Jingyue spoke, and while cutting off the incoming branches, she said, "You can collect medicine with peace of mind, this is the edge, and I can block the attack of the dryad." β
With Bai Jingyue's promise, Yonglin put her mind at ease for some reason and began to collect medicine, even though this was a very dangerous place, she still felt at ease.
On the other hand, the game of cutting fruit began. That might be a bit too much for the arrogant dryad, but for Shiraitsuki, blocking these branches is really like a game of cutting fruits.
As time passed, the dryad found that not only did he not take down the prey, but he also lost a lot of branches, and even the [bait] was also a lot, so he shook the branches even more violently, intending to kill the prey.
Seeing the Dryad's current offensive, Bai Jingyue shrugged her shoulders, if she continued to stay, the strength she showed now would not be enough, so Bai Jingyue didn't plan to play with the Dryad, and directly retreated backwards.
Anyway, Yonglin just told him that he had picked enough herbs he needed.
Pulling Yonglin to quickly leave the area, after confirming that the surroundings were safe, Bai Jingyue said with a smile: "How about it? I said that I can protect you." β
"Hmm..."
The mosquito-like voice made Bai Jingyue a little strange, and when she looked closely, Yonglin was bowing her head and her face was red at the moment.
At this time, Bai Jingyue realized that the hand he was holding with Yonglin had not yet been released.
"I'm so sorry, I'm in a hurry. β
Let go of your hand. Bai Jingyue looked at the basket behind Yonglin, intending to divert the topic: "Are these enough?
Speaking of the herbs that were finally picked, Yonglin's attention also shifted, looking at the layer of herbs at the bottom of the basket, Yonglin breathed a sigh of relief.
"There are so many herbs in this kind of herb that are enough for the time being, this time we have to pick some other commonly used herbs, all in a relatively safe place, let's go!"
With that, Yonglin set off in a hurry.
Some messy white hair fluttered in the air, and Shirai Yue's strong eyesight allowed him to see Yonglin's reddened neck.
It seems that Yonglin didn't really put down what he had just done.
With a laugh, Shirai Yue hurriedly followed.
The safety here is only relative to the safety of the place just now, as long as it is still in this mountain, Yonglin may be in danger.
In this way, Shirai Yue escorted Yonglin to pick herbs for a day, and sent Yonglin back to the village in the evening.
After receiving a small bag of grain from Yonglin, Shirai Yue was about to leave, but she heard Yonglin's call: "Mr. Shiraiγ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»"
"What's wrong, Yonglin?"
"Are you coming back tomorrow?"
"If you need it. β
"γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»γ»No, it's three days from now. β
After saying that, Yonglin turned around and ran back to the village.
Bai Jingyue couldn't help but laugh as she looked at Yonglin's departing back.
"See you in three days, Yonglin. β
