The dilapidated door squeaked, and the occupants of the house immediately became alert. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Before the door was fully opened, I saw a figure half-crouched by the door with his knees propped up, panting.

"Seven stars!" Chikage blinked, making sure she was not mistaken, "How did you end up here?" ”

The other three people all looked at the door in unison, took a few breaths before straightening up, smiling happily, and their bright hearts were all piled up on their faces.

"I didn't expect you guys to live here, hahahaha."

The bull's head did not answer the horse's mouth.

"What's wrong with living here?"

Chikage looked around the one-room house in disbelieving, and couldn't see anything wrong with it except that it was surrounded by walls and uninhabited.

He smiled and walked into the house, everything in this house was very familiar to him, because this was his home in the world. It's just a few extra people and a few machines, so it's just a little different.

Excitedly, he walked around the house and walked around before he walked up to Chikage and said, "No problem, no problem, because this is my home, so it's absolutely no problem!" ”

"Your home?"

Several different voices asked the same question, including October, who had just followed up unknowingly.

"Yes, I've lived here for seven or eight years, and I didn't leave for the imperial capital until two months ago."

"No wonder you ran so fast."

October, Tokizaki and Takahashi rushed in, and the room suddenly became more crowded.

As soon as the three of them entered the door, the first thing that caught their eyes was a pile of messy equipment.

They occupy the most prominent position in the center of the room, the center of the room, and one can only circle the path between them and the few rudimentary pieces of furniture next to them.

October quickly turned his gaze away from the pile of devices that were in the way.

Seeing her serious expression and sharp eyes, he thought she was going to challenge Chikage. Sensing that the atmosphere was not good, he beat a drum in his heart, and even the air smelled of gunpowder.

Even if they can't use divine power, with the skills of the two of them, if they don't agree to fight here, they can easily tear down his house.

No, we can't let this happen!

was about to say something to ease the atmosphere, but October unexpectedly raised his right hand and smiled at Qianying: "Yo, Qianying, long time no see." ”

The greetings were quite cordial, and those who didn't know would probably think that it was a reunion between two friends after a long absence.

"October, you're here too?"

After expressing the greetings when they met in a calm and questioning tone, Chikage just tilted his head slightly, and there was neither an affectionate smile nor a hidden anger on his face, and his reaction could be described as cold.

This sentence, which is both questioning and declarative, makes October a little angry.

To greet her politely, but to reply in such a sarcastic tone, is it to mock her for only joining the Legion now?

Moreover, he always has such a haughty expression of ignorance, which is really infuriating.

Even if the heart is extremely angry, the reaction on the face is only a fleeting frown and pouting, followed by an understatement grin to show white teeth.

"Ah, here, the head of the regiment asked me to help you."

The cowardly will be angry, and the strong will be angry.

Her shrewd Qingtianmu October would not show a weak appearance of annoyance and anger in front of Xue Qianying, in that case, she would lose.

Although it seemed that there should not be a fight, observing the subtle changes in the tone and expression of the two when they spoke, he resolutely interjected.

"Deputy Commander, what exactly is the mission this time? Why is it that even Araki is injured? ”

His gaze wandered back and forth between Chikage, Tsuki, and Araki, seriously pulling the conversation to the purpose of their visit.

At this time, Shi Qi, who had not spoken, also began to report to his family: "Deputy Commander of a Thousand Shadows, I am Shi Qi Shuo of the Second Legion, and this one next to me is Takahashi Zhen, Commander Yinhui asked us to help in the battle, can you please explain all the circumstances of the mission to us in detail." ”

Chikage is very familiar with the name Tokizaki Shuohiko, and often hears it from his brother and others, and is said to be a very powerful person, and he and October can be said to be two powerful reinforcements. As for the strength of Seven Stars and Takahashi, she hasn't seen it yet, so she can't make any estimates for the time being.

"Okay, I'll tell you about the information we've gathered and the progress we've made so far."

Just as he was about to speak, Araki's piercing cry of pain was heard.

"Let's go outside and talk about it, and by the way, I'll show you the scene. Doctor, thank you, I'll take them to the woods first. ”

"Okay, Chikage-sama, don't worry, I'll do my best to cure Araki."

"Ahh By the time you come back, I'll probably have been tortured to death by him. ”

Araki's loud protest drew a burst of laughter, "Don't worry, you won't be tortured to death, at most you will be half-dead." ”

Ignoring the argument between the two, Chikage rushed to the forest that had been burned down earlier.

On the way, she started from going to Mount Kasumiran two months ago to look for the sacred contract, and continued to talk about the order of Kannayu to burn the forest on the edge of the Tamagawa.

"What, that forest is burning!"

Broken sighed in amazement.

He is also very familiar with Tamagawa and the forest, and used to go to Tamagawa to bathe and play in the forest in the summer, which can be said to be a paradise full of memories. Now that I have been told that the forest has been destroyed, I can't let go of any thought.

Thinking of this, his steps involuntarily quickened, as if he had just run home.

It didn't take long for the five of them to come to the hillside where they could see the Tamagawa River and the forest at the same time.

The sun had set over the ridge in the distance, and I was supposed to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the clouds, but at a glance, it was scorched black and devastated.

The large woods, which had been extremely dense, were burned to the point that there was almost no greenery, and the lively birds and beasts were gone, and the occasional corpses of wild beasts that had been burned so that they could not distinguish the species were scattered along the banks of the river.

The remnants of the large black branches resemble a huge beast skeleton that died in the fire, and the contrast of the colorful sunset is more and more desolate and sad.

Looking at the scene in front of you, you can imagine how terrible it was even if you didn't witness the situation when the fire engulfed everything at that time.

I immediately fell into nostalgia, the world is impermanent, but it becomes too fast for people to accept.

Strangely, however, the burning area seems to be confined to this forest, and the surrounding area has not been affected by the fire.

How was such a big fire controlled?

"Deputy Head of a Thousand Shadows, who put out this fire later?"

Tokizaki was the first to bring up this issue that everyone was concerned about.

Chikage sighed and said, "It's also the one who set the fire." ”
