Chapter 39: Rendezvous
It's been a few days since she was marked by Kotomi, except for the first day when the mark was weakened, and in the days that followed, Lena felt that the marker's reaction was becoming more and more obvious, and it should be Takari and they caught up. However, because of the constant harassment of monsters sent by Raizang in the past few days, although the two sides are getting closer and closer, they have never been able to converge.
"No road race! No Road Race! No Road Race! I can't take it anymore! Woo, I'm so hungry, I want to sleep, I want to take a shower. I thought that when I got to the city, I could have a place to eat and rest, but this place has been deserted for a long time. Why do we always find us? "Lena walking on the streets of the deserted city feels very unlucky, although the mana has been restored, but every time you have to stop and rest, there will always be waves of monsters to make trouble, what Taururu, berserkers, skeleton soldiers and even all kinds of orcs, although the strength is very poor, but the harassment can still be done, there is no way to rest and eat.
Yesterday, I finally caught a few fish and prepared to improve the food, but the monster tossed and was all scorched by the ball of flames.
"That's because I'm here! Because my body was made by Raizo with magic, it was like the smell of my own body to Raizo. Jalu told the reason, as long as he was with him, it would be difficult for Raizang to find it.
"In that case, it's okay to set traps in advance. How long are you going to hide? After hearing Jalu's explanation, Lena found that the two were already surrounded......
"Boom"
A huge ball of flame exploded in the ruins of a nearby city, and it was the marked location that Lena was in danger.
"Lena has encountered an enemy, Misaka will go over to support first, and you two will hurry up and follow." After explaining a few words to Gaoli, Misaka flew directly to the direction of the explosion just now.
When she finds Lena, she is being hunted by a strange old man who has turned his arm into a whip and his other hand has fired countless needles of light. It's so old and still playing such a heavy thing, training Play is not something that a bad old man like you plays, so I'm not afraid of overexcitement, heart attack, cerebral hemorrhage, and suddenly I will travel west.
"Yikes!"
Seeing that Lena was about to be injured by the strange old man's light needle magic, a magic shield suddenly appeared and blocked the attack.
"What a mess, Lena." I was relieved to see that Lena was safe, but this strange old man was a demon and was not easy to deal with.
"Do you have a companion to help? Don't think that more people can beat me. Hand over the Philosopher's Stone, and spare you from dying. "The strange old man said that even if he added Misaka, there was no pressure, and threatened us to hand over the Philosopher's Stone.
"No kidding. Not to mention the Philosopher's Stone, even the glass ball Misaka will not give it to you. Scytheslash "Misaka swung his thunderbolt battle axe, intending to rush over and slash the demon, but Lena held them back.
"Kotomi, please wait a minute, lend me my ear." Do you want to bite your ears at this time? Is there something secret to tell?
"Run now!" However, after getting over, Lena suddenly grabbed Misaka and turned around and ran.
We took refuge in a house that had been abandoned for a long time, like a stable, a disgusting place, and it stinked to death. Stuffing Misaka into a hay pile, Lena began to explain why she was going to pull Misaka and escape.
"Are you going to go head-to-head with each other? Baga, the other party is a member of the demon race, and he is a demon with a very pure blood. Have I read all the books I gave you in vain? Pure demons are only spiritual bodies, and magic and weapons that are not specifically destroying spirits are ineffective. Your Mead magic is strong, but it's still too hard to deal with demons. "It's just that Lina, who saw Misaka's shot when she was slaying the dragon, didn't fully understand Misaka's power (although the search magic moved greatly, after all, it couldn't reflect the lethality), so she chose to shift her strategy for fear that Misaka would suffer.
Misaka was about to retort when a "boom" shot of magic hit the house, and we were blown out. The hateful demon clan was found so quickly.
"Looks like you two little girls don't play hide and seek well. You should be happy, the first thing Raizo sees when he opens his eyes is your corpse. "The old man floated in front of us.
"It's really perverted, who would be happy about this kind of thing."
"It's a." Hideyoshi and Takasatoshi arrived.
"Is there another one who is going to die? It doesn't matter how much you come, you can't do anything other than make me have more fun. If you want to live, hurry up and hand over the Philosopher's Stone. "The strange old man unleashed a massive fire attack.
"Arrow of Fire/Photonlancer (Photon Spirit Spear)"
Lena and Misaka launched a counterattack while dodging, although the fireball was neutralized by the opponent, the photon spirit spear wounded the opponent's arm, and Takasato took the opportunity to rush over and slash, but unfortunately the physical attack was ineffective against the demons, and was forced by the opponent with a finger gun
Come back.
"How is that possible? Your magic is not powerful, why would you hurt the demons? "It's no surprise to Lena that low-level magic and physical attacks aren't effective, but Misaka's magic has injured the demons, albeit only slightly.
"Misaka's magic is that the lowest-level photon spirit gun has tens of thousands of volts, and ordinary lightning breaking is the level of household electricity, and Misaka's thunder and lightning can be compared to the real thunder in the sky." Don't think that Misaka's lightning is a low-level elven magic that only has a few hundred volts of power.
"It's a bit of a surprise, but I know your approximate level, and it's just that the kitten has a little sharper claws. Now, it's time for me to get serious about the guys. The strange old man waved his arm, and the scars of the Photon Spirit Spear disappeared, and then he began to transform into a boss.
First, a large black mist appeared, and then the old man and the black mist turned into a large pile of black jelly-like objects, and when the jelly shape stabilized, it was an image of a curious old man with only half of his body left, four hands, floating in the air. Look at our sweat! Can't you just make it look good? One by one, they are all so curious, and they look so good at Geralth.
Although the strange old man who has changed his appearance is curious, his combat power has indeed increased greatly, and the original two hands to launch magic have now become four hands, and his power has more than doubled, and we are constantly retreating.
"Everyone, I'm going to rush over, you cover me." Suddenly, Takasato inserted his sword into the sheath and walked towards the demons.
"What are you doing? You stupid jellyfish head, your attacks are useless against demons. Rina, who couldn't figure out what was going on, was angry, while Misaka and Hideyoshi knew that Takasato was about to pull out his sword of light. The weapon concocted by the Demon King of the Otherworldly Demon King Dark Star (it seems that some people say that it is a demon race, is it a weapon race), and it is the nemesis of the demon race.
Gao Li took out a needle in front of the old demon man, and then did something on his sword, as if he had flipped a switch.
"What are you going to do?" Even the demons were confused by his strange behavior.
"Now you understand what I'm going to do, right?" Gosato drew his sword again, the blade of the long sword remaining in its scabbard, and he faced the other with the strange hilt.
"I see, you're a very stupid guy." Feeling that the strange old man who was being tricked had a large magic bullet on all his arms, the guy who played the demon must pay the price.
"It can't be helped. It's ...... than dusk" In order to save Takasato, Lena began to chant about the dragon slash, but at this moment......
"Sword of Light!" The strange hilt in Takari's hand spewed light, and the willpower transformed into pure light to form the blade of the Sword of Blazing Light.
"Yikes!"
As soon as Gao Li went down with a sword, the curious demon old man was split in half, and the leader was on the field. As the saying goes, one thing descends one thing, in front of this sword of light, unless it is a few strong people of the demon clan, there is no resistance at all, and it is a bento if it is chopped.
"High... "Lena walked up to Gorry and looked at him affectionately, just when Gorry thought that Lena was going to make a promise because of the grace of saving her life......
"Give me that sword! Give me that sword...... Of course, I won't take it for free, can I sell 500 gold coins to me, okay? "Gori Khan, Bai was moved.
"You can thank me a little too! 500 gold coins can't even afford an ordinary sword, and no one in the world can sell the sword of light at this price. And this sword is an heirloom that has been passed down from generation to generation in my family, and it doesn't cost much to sell. "Even if it's a jellyfish head, the Sword of Light is more than this price, not to mention that it's a family heirloom.
"That's good, this sword will be in my house and be regarded as a family heirloom in my family. Give it to me for free, Gorry. "If you refuse to sell, won't you even get the money? Lena started messing around. Misaka was more fortunate that the Sword of Light distracted Lena, so he shouldn't be so anxious to hit Misaka's Thunderlight Battle Axe.
"If Gori joins the Imbas family, it is okay to pass on this sword as a dowry. The two married old men will come to be the best men. Hideyoshi said the solution. If the Sword of Light hadn't returned to the Otherworld, this would probably be the end of it.
"Hu... Nonsense, who is going to marry this jellyfish head. It's just a sword, and you don't want me to marry him for this. And Hideyoshi should be a bridesmaid, even this is wrong, are you natural? Lena beats Takari while lecturing Hideyoshi.
"Looks like you're safe." Jero and his men came over, and they had already cleared the werewolf and miscellaneous monster.
Gouri is still wary of Jelugang and his gang, and Lena quickly explains to us why she's partnered with Jelu.
During the battle that day, Lena was about to be caught, but a sudden explosion of magic forced Jalu to take refuge first, and Lena took the opportunity to escape by jumping into the water.
After going ashore, Lena got lost, and only found her way in the middle of the night, but was blocked by Jelugang Des. I thought that this time I would be in danger, but I didn't expect that instead of arresting her and forcing her to ask about the statue, Emperor Jelugang handed her food and told Lena all the information he knew.
It was Raizo himself who met us that day, and Jero was his subordinate, and in order to find the Philosopher's Stone, Jero was turned into a monster by him. Now that the Philosopher's Stone has an eyebrow, Jero wants to take revenge on Raizo for turning him into a stone man.
The rest is the same as in the original book, the two of them first took a picture with Raizang, and after escaping, they repelled waves of werewolves and monsters, until they joined us in the ruins of this town and completely eliminated Raizang's men.
"Although there were many conflicts in the past, we will be companions in the future, so please give me a lot of advice." The bandage man Zolulf was indeed stylish when he tore off the bandage, and the bald uncle also came over to introduce himself, his name was Rodimas.
It's hard to find such loyal subordinates these days, so if it's possible, don't let these two bento. Moreover, saving the two people who will die this time will also have a lot of changes for the future of this world, and there should be a lot of side rewards.
"Please advise." To fight Raizo, we formed a partnership.
