Chapter XI

For some time afterward, neither the Lich Maid nor the Silver Pupil Captain didn't really know what had happened that night. Bergman himself didn't even know why he sang or what he sang. However, she didn't care about this at first, and after her health improved a little, she insisted on getting up from the hospital bed and resuming her previous job as a maid in the team, and it was useless for others to persuade her.

After a failed escape, and while Bogart appeared to be no different from her before, Bergman found himself seemingly missing the chance to abscond again. The girl's tent was not only used as a starting point during the captain's routine night patrol, but now it was also the target of the end point and midnight spot checks. This made Bergman both a little lost and a little proud, and slowly faded the idea of leaving. Since you can't escape, then love what you want, the girl made a decision with some self-abandonment.

The other ladies in the party are also well-intentioned, and Bogart's special care for the Lich Girl is not hidden from anyone, and the reasons are high-sounding, so no one is willing to take the initiative to say more. However, correspondingly, after performing tasks or traveling long distances, due to various reasons such as minor injuries or fatigue, female team members are bedridden from time to time. Zorro's adventure team seems to have suddenly become much weaker, but fortunately, this coquettish behavior is quite restrained, and there is no sudden situation where everyone is lying down, but it looks more like a shift duty, so in the end, it is almost accepted by everyone by default.

Bergman was still faithful to her logistical duties, still the crappy lich she hadn't even mastered basic necromancy, unaware that she had stumbled upon other strange abilities. She was also puzzled by what had happened before she passed out, but she couldn't understand it even if she thought about it without the necessary common sense. Although the Demon Realm is rich in legal professions, it is impossible for her, who has been abandoned since she was a child, to know something as high-end as Bimeng War Song.

It was not necessarily the priest who could sing the Beamon war song, as Bogart knew as he could. In the eyes of this silver eye, even if the Lich Girl inadvertently awakened this ability, it would not have much practical significance. Attacking or supporting, the effect was extremely limited to the extent that night, and I am afraid that Bergman would not be able to distinguish between friend and foe. And no matter what the skill is, it takes a lot of practice to really master it. And with the weak and sickly constitution of the Lich Girl, I am afraid that she can't even sing a complete battle song, so there is no point in practicing at all.

But then again, Bogart himself should be considered an outlier in the silver pupils. He had established a spiritual connection with his nightmare quite early, but he had been slow to summon it. Even in this situation, his mental power was surprisingly strong. If it weren't for the weird weapons he chose, he would have been the focus of the Winged Knight. If it continues as it is now, no knight will recruit Silver Pupils who do not have mounts and do not use swords. Although there are a lot of co-opting reservations, the prerequisite is at least after summoning the nightmare.

However, Bogart himself doesn't care about this, although his adventure team is mostly female and its strength is not bad, it still looks more like a female orchestra. Bogart's own violin is also quite good, and there are even symphony orchestras of the Demon World that plan to hire him as the first violinist. Regarding the latter kind of invitation, he actually considered it seriously, but finally gave it up due to the obstruction of the declining aristocratic family.

Bergman has occasionally seen a battle scene for his adventuring party once or twice, often when dealing with larger mutant beasts.

Bogart does not wear armor, so even the Zorro suit is not good for enemies with high hand-to-hand combat ability. Not only him, but the adventure team is very good at dealing with the mysterious beasts that are good at spells or psychic abilities, which is also a natural advantage for the inhabitants of the Demon Realm. However, against the beasts that have superior hand-to-hand combat ability and are huge, it is a little difficult to perform. Even if several female knights in full crystal suits were on the same page, they wouldn't be able to withstand a few minutes longer than Bogart. Minions such as Abominable Ghouls don't help much, and the Beasts that can withstand their master's spells and attacks largely ignore these guys, and usually don't do much to distract them.

Once, Zorro's adventure party was tasked with destroying a monster that was entrenched in a large deep pool near the town, and when they reached their destination, they found that the enemy was a mutated Moria leech.

It's a tricky task.

The enemy is an aquatic myclam, and at most it is only used to lure it out of the water with shell coins, but in fact, the opponent still has the advantage of terrain on the large surface. The adventuring team can only fight on land, and there is no suitable personnel and equipment for air and water battles. Bogart also had the idea of using the Abomination Samurai and Ghoul retinue to drag the opponent ashore, but this mutant Moria leech was about twenty meters long from head to tentacles, and the abominants in the team who usually could carry the harp and go to the water's edge to pull a live beast weighing thousands of mocha had little hope. After losing one or two abominations, Bogart reluctantly canceled the plan.

There aren't too many members of Zorro's team, and as mentioned earlier, due to the absence of male lichs, female lichs can only perform negative blessing arcane, which leads to the weak magic attack power of the entire team.

On the side of the Moria leech, waving twenty tentacles to fight with a few silver pupils on the shore or in shallow water, even if some tentacles are cut off, it is a big deal to change them, and they will soon be able to regenerate back. Due to the large size of this waterhole and the near-straight line of the shore, the members of Zorro's team could only attack in a horizontal row, unable to outflank them from front to back, left and right. This gives the Moria leech itself the opportunity to attack directly with an ice-based arcane cover.

Several female hell shooters were originally not weak, but because they were fighting in tandem with Bogart, they were shy when they fired spears, and their efficiency was much worse than when they practiced alone. This kind of ranged attack means that it has no great auxiliary effect at all.

So the adventuring team stayed by the pool for several days, and every day they were watching with the Moria leech on the shore. The Beasts didn't have much chance of pulling Bogart into the water, but Team Zorro couldn't pull the turtle-like guy out either. The dozens of tentacles covered with wolf fangs and barbs were certainly menacing when they were entangled, but once they were caught, they immediately became extremely slippery, and they could even escape repeatedly by elongating and thinning. If it is really detained and can't escape, this Moria leech can still decisively "break the wrist of a strong man". Actively abandon the tentacles from the half-section or even the root.

The abandoned tentacles do not lose their activity for a short time, but instinctively strangle the closest thing, constantly shrinking and squeezing. A female silver-eyed knight was hit, although Bogart pulled her back to shore in time, and in the shortest possible time, he cut half of her tentacles into flakes to free the female silver-eyed from the python-like entanglement. But the crystal armor she was wearing was basically unwanted, and there were still wounds left by several tentacle suction cups on her exposed skin that were constantly oozing blood.

Leeches are known to secrete a substance that prevents blood from clotting, which makes it difficult for wounds to heal from Moria's leeches, and it is easy for the wounded to lose too much blood and fall into a coma. The injury is well treated, and the blood is difficult to replenish. As a result, the Zorro team has one less warrior who can resist the monster. The adventuring team could only retreat for a few days, and after moving to a nearby town to treat the female team member's injuries and recuperate, they rushed back to the pond to continue to fight with the mutant leech.

Bogart's combat skills are gorgeous, wielding a bow that can envelop the area around his body in a radius of three to five meters, and anyone who dares to reach in will be sliced into a fish. However, this kind of trick lacks aggressiveness, and the tentacles of the Moria leech are about ten meters long, and they were only sliced by Bogart a few times at the beginning, and then they learned to be obedient, as long as they wielded outside his attack range. As soon as Bogart slows down, he makes a feint. Although there is no contact between the two sides, it is also very dangerous.

Since the waterhole itself is located in the shade, ice is floating on the surface of the water from time to time, and during battle, these millstone-sized "crushed ice" are often rolled up by leeches and thrown at Bogart. Combined with the ice magic launched from the monster's eyes, the Silver Pupils are next to each other before the battle, but often after fighting for a while, they are forced to separate and fight separately. As a result, it doesn't work to contain the top monsters, and it doesn't give the lich a chance to summon large creatures for a killing attack.

As a result, this task can only be further delayed.

In contrast to the combatants who were exhausted after returning from a daily battle with mutated leeches, Bergman was resting during these days. The climate near the waterhole is not bad, she doesn't have much work every day, and when everyone is busy, no one will cause any trouble. It's just that since the female silver pupil was injured, Bergman couldn't sit still in the camp.

When she is often doing some chores, her mind wanders slightly, as if she can see Bogart's bloody figure. This kind of uneasiness cannot be eliminated, whether it is work or idle, as long as the energy is scattered, Bergman can't control himself from thinking in a bad direction. Although every member of the party team has been vigilant since then, most of them have been able to return safely and without the slightest injury, except for being a little more mentally tired than usual. But before Bergman saw everyone return, he couldn't hold his breath even more.

Recently, Bogart has been in a state of frowning thinking even when he returns to camp due to the poor progress of his mission, and although he cares about Bergman as always, he is obviously a little absent-minded. This is probably the reason for the Lich Girl's nervousness.

The deadline was approaching, but the Zorro team still couldn't think of a good response until that happened.
