Chapter 8: The Style of That Arrow
At this moment, it was true that things were a little unexpected, but it was just a small thing, at least in Sakura's opinion, because she could feel that the hemp ball on her stomach and the seal on her head were still very calm. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"Hey?! That's not the case! We're not monsters, it's not right, Jiuye's predecessors are, it's not right, in short, in short, we don't have malicious intentions! ā
After reacting to the shouts of the surrounding villagers, as the center of many eyes, Al suddenly panicked, unlike the few people in front, this one is a genuine, only fifteen or sixteen-year-old ordinary girl, naturally it will be a little difficult to deal with such a situation.
Coupled with her already somewhat stupid and stupid character, she was a little flustered after being subjected to the hostile gaze of the surrounding villagers, and after holding back her little face and blushing slightly, she said it out loud to the surrounding villagers very innocently.
However, such a statement is naturally useless, even Al himself understands this very clearly, but it is really difficult for her to find some more suitable words, and in this regard, in front of her, Jiuye, who is still in the form of a cat, shook her head a little speechlessly.
"I'm really convinced! You're still a paladin......"
The black cat jumped up nimbly from Wu Xia's shoulder, and began an instant transformation in the air, and when it landed, it had turned into a humanoid posture of Nine Leaves, two black cat tails and cat ears of the same color, non-human animal pupils, and nails that shone with some cold light.
"For these ignorant people, it doesn't make sense just to speak, and when necessary, learn to make them obedient in your own way!"
Demon energy and anger were released from Jiuye's body at the same time, and looking at her appearance, it seemed that she wanted to make a little move, and the target was naturally those villagers, but before that, another voice intervened first and stopped her.
"It's just a little thing, do you want to kill these villagers?"
It was Wu Xia who spoke, the girl with a single ponytail frowned slightly, her language was concise and peaceful, and one of her hands was already on the wooden knife at her waist, it seemed that if Jiuye really wanted to do it, she would stop it.
"Really, I'm not Baga! And for the sake of such a thing, kill people, are you a murderer who ran out of me? Just a little proof that we won't hurt them, and that's going to be easier for things to come by, isn't it? ā
After hearing Jiuye's words, Wu Xia didn't speak again, and the hand on the wooden knife also loosened, anyone in this place, even if it is simple, it is impossible to be pedantic, or too rigid, so there will definitely not be any bloody thing.
"Youkai are going to eat people! Hurry up, everyone! As long as Kikyo-sama comes, these monsters will definitely be retired! ā
āā¦ā¦ā
"Really...... One or two, don't you have a little backbone?! ā
The villagers who thought that they had raised their hoes and the tools around them before and looked like they were about to make a move, suddenly dispersed in a hurry at this time, and Jiu Ye, who originally wanted to see who attacked first, and then grabbed him as a hostage to explain things clearly, was suddenly a little speechless.
"Damn! Don't think you can escape! ā
The cat demon, who blushed a little because of the gaze of several companions around her, said a little embarrassed, and then, chased after the villager who spoke before, but at the moment when she just left, a sense of crisis came.
The purple brilliance is not so brilliant or immense, just like a flash of lightning, but it is not something that can be ignored like its form, on the contrary, it is like a real thunderbolt, carrying a terrifying attack.
However, for Jiuye, it is impossible to dodge this attack at this moment, as for blocking this attack from the side, she can't stop it on her own, but it is impossible for her to be severely injured by this attack.
"Z-"
It was as if hot oil was falling on a hot pan, and it was like the sound of electricity scattered in the air, which suddenly burst out around Jiuye, and this gap also allowed her to stabilize her body, and then quickly withdraw.
It was also at this time that the rest of the people also saw clearly what was going on with the sound before, the dazzling light was constantly intertwined and scattered, and the source of this light was the purple light that was shot at the Nine Leaves, and its body was a feather arrow.
This arrow is stagnant in mid-air at the moment, and what is blocking it is a palm, it is E, who has been standing next to these newcomers, he reacted immediately the moment this arrow hit, but with his speed, he can only take a few steps horizontally, but this is enough.
The glasses that reflected the white light kept flashing some unknown symbols, like some code, and at the same time, a large number of unknown characters appeared on his palm, which looked like words and some kind of rune.
E's expression was very serious and serious, staring at the arrow he had blocked, as if he wanted to see through it, as if he was calculating something, and after a stalemate of about two or three seconds, his hand suddenly clenched, and at the same time, the arrow began to disintegrate.
It was not destruction or anything, but a more essential disintegration, as if the basic ingredients or concepts that made up the substance, the attack, had been removed, like grit being blown away by the wind......
This is the ability that E has, and it is also the origin of the name of the so-called "truth seeker", to analyze the rules and jurisprudence of everything, and then grasp the laws therein, but for E, this ability is still very rudimentary, and he relies on his own superhuman computing ability.
Just like when the arrow came before, he relied on the laws he had already mastered to block, and what he used was some "physical laws" that he understood, and when he understood it through calculations, there was a situation where he had dissolved the arrow before.
Of course, if the additional power on this arrow is strong enough, there is no way for E to dodge it at all, either take advantage of this short stalemate and dodge, or buy a hole at the end of this stalemate, and that's it.
"Oops, hey~ Fortunately, it's a merciful arrow, otherwise, it seems that I really have to explain here......"
made a voice that sounded a little heartless, but E's expression was not very relaxed, he raised his hand and wiped the sweat on his head slightly, this young man probably also had palpitations, as for him, it was more frightened, it was Jiuye, after all, the arrow just now was coming towards her, although it would not be killed directly, but serious injuries or something were inevitable.
It was also at this time that everyone looked at the source of the arrow from which it had been shot, and at a distance of nearly a hundred meters from here, a young girl was standing, and beside her was a girl who was no more than seven or eight years old, wrapped in a white cloth with her right eye, and carrying a quiver in her hand.
The one who shot this arrow before was the girl who was holding the bow in one hand at this time, wearing a red and white witch costume with an indifferent expression, and at this time, her free right hand took the quiver from the girl next to her and carried it on her body.
"Whew-Is it a bellflower? Bad luck......"
After seeing this girl, Kuba made a very unhappy sound, but looking at her appearance was much more restrained, after hearing Kuba's voice, Sakura turned her head sideways slightly, and then turned her eyes to the witch not far away, she was also at this time, only to know that the original Kikyo mentioned in the mission was this person, and she could also feel that this witch's body contained very powerful spiritual power.
"Kikyo-sama! Please save us! Please help us get rid of these monsters! ā
"Don't worry."
At this time, the rest of the villagers immediately ran towards the witch who they had great trust in after seeing Kikyo, but the expressionless witch didn't say much, nodded slightly, and walked over slowly.
"Are you the shrine maiden Kikyo? What a great little girl. ā
It was Ma Tuan who stepped forward directly to meet her, she was also expressionless, but she said to the bellflower in a tone that was not cold, and no one would think that she was three things after talking to her, at most, she just sighed "This child's facial paralysis is a little serious".
"Who are you?"
There is no superfluous rhetoric, straight to the point, this voice lacks ups and downs, but it is not as cold as Sakura, but just a kind of alienation, strangeness and vigilance, or a kind of firmness.
"We're just some travelers who travel around, and occasionally we do things to slay demons, and we've just come to this village."
I didn't hesitate to introduce the identity of my group at all.,Although it's a little vague.,But,For the bellflower and the rest.,It's a detailed content.,And there's no falsehood in it.,It's natural to say it.,It's a little weird and funny with a little strange tone of the hemp ball.ć
"In that case, please leave quickly, it's still early in the morning, and if you go south, you should soon be able to reach a small city."
Very calmly and indifferently issued an eviction order, but the girl was surprisingly a good person, and Sakura was sure that if it was already dark by this time, then the witch might let them stay for the night, and it was a little puzzling to trust others just like that.
"This may not work, because the Jade of the Four Souls is in this village."
Ma Tuan continued to speak to Kikyo in the same voice as before, and this made Kikyo's pupils shrink, and his left hand also held the bow tightly, and took a step back, vigilantly watching out for everyone in front of him.
