Chapter Eighty-Nine: Preparing for the Rescue
"That's it..... Those mana floating dragons rushed up at once, there were too many of them......."
Some of the wounded Karouac fled back to the village, telling the story in horror.
"What about the elderly, why don't you see the elderly.....?"
"The elder told us to go first, it covered our escape by itself, and we had to come back with our injured brother first....."
"Bastards, you left the elder and ran away!"
.......
Etis came to the entrance of the village with the awkward Elunis, listened to the noisy quarrel of the Karouac people gathered together, and after listening for a while, he understood the cause and effect of the incident.
Syruk is generally responsible for the supply of materials in the village, and he has a very high reputation in the village, and when he saw this chaotic scene, he roared angrily: "Bastard, what is the commotion! Shut up for me! Otherwise, the ration of supplies will be halved this winter!"
Hearing Syruk's threat, the crowd gradually fell silent, and then Margit whispered to Syruk, "Syruk...... We're all quiet now, what should we do next?"
Syruk angrily slapped Margit and drove him to the side and said to the crowd: "There is no point in arguing now, since the elder allowed them to retreat first, I think the elder has his own reasons! But we can't ignore the elder! Now what we need to do is to reorganize a team to meet the elder!"
Seruk paused for a moment to digest his suggestion and then continued: "Now that I'm the first, who wants to come!"
The group was silent for a moment, and then Margit was the first to comply with Syruk's suggestion: "I.... I'm coming, even though I'm an adult, and I'm a warrior now! I'm going to save the elderly!"
"Me!"
"And me!"
.....
Looking at the crowd that had signed up, Selluk nodded happily and began to select the people to go to, and soon a team of about a dozen people was organized, and a group of people picked up their weapons and walked towards the north of the village.
"Mana Floating Dragon Rampage? Elunis, will Mana Floating Dragon also go berserk?"
Elunis snorted, it wasn't going to answer the unscrupulous guy who had just plucked it.
Etis shook his head helplessly, obviously feeling that something was wrong, although he also wanted to help do something, but he didn't intervene rashly, after all, it was an outsider here now.
After thinking for a while, Etis took Elunis and left the village quietly, he was ready to quietly follow Seruk and them, and he could help himself when the time came.
Etis came to the outside of the village and put down Elunis, reached out and took the staff of disintegration from the void, and walked in the direction of Seruk and them.
Elunis, who was placed on the ground, was a little dissatisfied, and shouted: "Hey, boy, what are you putting me down for, do you want me to walk by myself, you have to figure it out! I'm a staff, shouldn't you take me with you? And what's that in your hand? Why are you staying with this third-rate staff? Throw it away, throw it away! You're enough to have me!"
Etis stopped, turned to look at Elunis and said, "Do you see any mage who fights with a sheep in his arms? I don't know if I can beat the enemy, but I know for sure that others will think that I have something wrong with my brain! What am I going to do with you? When I fight, I throw you out and smash others? Or do you call me out twice and others will mercifully let me go? I think this 'third-rate staff' in my hand is much more reliable than you! If you want to follow, follow me, if you don't, go back and wait for me! You have to find out that I agreed to sign a contract with you because you saved my life!"
Elunis looked at Etis with some surprise, and laughed when he saw him walking away, a flashing spell flashed in front of Etis and then a puff of smoke rose, and a staff with a sheep's head appeared in front of Etis, and the sheep's head pouted at Etis and said, "Hey.... I didn't expect you kid to be so tough, it's a bit of a surprise, but Uncle Ben and I are also very professional, since I decided to follow you, I should be responsible for your safety!
Etis looked at the staff of the sheep's head with some tears and laughter, and finally sighed and carried Elunis on his back.
"Hey..... That's right. ”
Elunis seemed a little happy, and her body lit up a few times with a crisp sound of "ding, ding, ding!"
"Oh yes, I forgot to remind you of something, huh...... Originally, I wanted to see you make a fool of yourself and remind you, but now I'm more happy, so I'll tell you in advance. ”
"Hmm, what's the matter?" asked Etis, confused.
"It's all the people of Karouac in that village, and you don't think it's obvious, but..... Do you notice that the world has become a little different?"
"Hmm....."
Etis thought for a moment and said, "It's a little ..... But I can't say anything different, I feel like there are voices whispering around me, which makes me feel a little noisy, and my head is a little ......dizzy."
"Bang!"
An arcane glow lit up on Elunis, and a pit was blown out of the snow next to her.
"What are you doing!"
Etis was startled, and saw that there was actually a snow leopard under the tree next to it! It didn't know how long it had been hiding there, and if it weren't for Elunis's magic explosion, Etis would definitely have been attacked!
The snow leopard couldn't comprehend the scene in front of him, and didn't know why the place where he was hiding suddenly exploded, but the beast instinct sensed the danger, and it roared unwillingly, turned around and ran away.
Etis: "...... Thanks, but that's what you're talking about?"
"Haven't you found out yet, boy?"
"Found what?" Etis wondered even more.
"What a fool! Listen, you've gained some of my abilities because of your pact with me! One of them is fluent in language! You can now understand the language of most creatures! But this transformation is achieved through arcane magic, so you have always maintained this state of language proficiency! Have you ever thought that if there are different species around you who speak different languages, your brain will not keep up with you when you transform language through arcane? Do you want to be an idiot? If there's a monster with a thousand mouths and a different language at the same time, you're going to be doomed!"
"A monster with a thousand mouths!" said Etis, a little stunned.
"It's just a metaphor, not the point!" said Elunis, a little frustrated.
Etis said sorry, Elunis's analogy reminded him of the monster that did have a thousand mouths, and it was right on the ground!
"With your current strength, don't say a thousand mouths, even a few mouths that say different languages will make your brain unbearable!"
"So what to do..... You're really..."
"You idiot! Transcendent creatures usually have this ability! You're a transcendent creature too, you give me a good fit for this!"
"Uh..... So what do I do?"
"Listen, that's how you should ......."
Under Elunis's teaching, Etis quickly blocked this ability, and later used it when he wanted to.
"Elunis is really knowledgeable..... It's earned!" Etis thought secretly, but he didn't notice that Elunis said he was a transcendent creature too!
