"What?"

For a moment, Rory felt that something was wrong with his mind and he was hallucinating.

He looked down into his arms and saw that Lillian was looking like an ordinary person with her eyes open.

"Rory, let me go. ”

Listening to Lillian's words, Rory involuntarily placed Lillian on the ground gently.

Lillian stood, looking like a normal old woman.

"Huh?"

When the big men saw this scene, they couldn't help but be a little surprised, and even Shuke, who was drinking red wine, looked away.

"Isn't it money that you want?"

Lillian's voice was not loud, but it reached the ears of everyone in the courtyard.

"That's right, all I want is money. ”

Shuk's eyebrows furrowed, looking at Lilian's aging face with interest.

"Is money really everything?"

Lillian looked straight at Shuk with no emotion in her eyes.

"Isn't it?"

Shuk cocked his legs, holding the glass in his hand, and continued, "If you had money, you wouldn't be reduced to being my dog in the slums." ”

"If you have money, your son won't live as well as a dog. ”

"If you had money, not only would I not you, I wouldn't even dare to speak out loud in front of you. ”

He drank the red wine from his glass and threw the empty glass on the ground.

"Whoa!"

The glass fell to the ground and shattered into pieces.

"You know, in my eyes, the lives of those poor ghosts out there are not as valuable as this one wine glass. ”

"So, money, everything. ”

He lifted his chin and squeezed his features together in what he thought was a chic smile.

Feeling the playful gazes scanning back and forth over her, Lillian's heart did not fluctuate.

Or rather, she won't have any more mood swings.

"Yes, money is everything. ”

She nodded, an inexplicable smile on her face.

"In that case......"

Looking at that ordinary smile, Shuk's heart suddenly pounded for no reason.

"Lillian ......"

Rory stood aside and stared blankly.

For some reason, he suddenly felt as if Lillian had changed into a different person.

Lillian reached into her dress, as if digging for something.

But she only had a thin tattered cloth on her body, and what was there to dig out?

Just as Shuk and his party watched Lilian's movements like clowns performing, their eyes suddenly froze.

That......

Is that......

A golden light suddenly appeared in front of their eyes.

"Gold!"

Shuk slammed up from the couch, his narrow eyes staring at the gold coin in Lillian's hand, as if he had seen a peerless beauty.

The audience fell silent.

Everyone couldn't help but swallow when they saw the glittering gold coin.

Gold!

That's gold!

Even Rory, whose eyes were drawn to the gold coin.

Graystone was an extremely remote place, and the people present hadn't even seen many silver coins, let alone gold coins worth a hundred silver coins.

As long as you have this gold coin, anyone can live a carefree life for a lifetime.

Shuk forced his gaze away from the gold coin, and he looked at the big men around him.

The big men's eyes were red, full of eagerness and eagerness.

With a bad sound, Shuk began to take a deep breath.

"That gold coin, it's fake, right?"

Shuke, who calmed down, looked at Lilian with empty eyes and sneered.

"Yes, how can a dead old woman take out the gold coins. ”

"If there were gold coins, didn't you take them out before?"

The big men also reacted at this moment, and their originally rapid breathing became relaxed, and they couldn't help laughing.

"Maybe this dead old woman has tried to make us fight. ”

Schuck sat back down, and the more he thought about it, the more he felt that he had found a blind spot.

"The boss is so smart. ”

"Worthy of the boss. ”

A big man walked up to Lillian and waved his hand, "Hey, bitch, why don't you speak?"

Seeing that Lilian didn't react, still looking ahead with empty eyes, the big man couldn't help but feel a little hairy, and took the gold coin in his hand.

He looked at the gold coin in his hand, put it in his mouth and bit it again.

Feeling the hard material, Dahan didn't seem to react.

I bit it again, but the gold coin was still fine, and my teeth felt like they were about to fall out.

"This ...... It's true. ”

As soon as he spoke, he seemed to suddenly realize something, and ran towards the door beside him.

"Damn! Jett wants to eat it all to himself!"

"Catch up with him!"

Seeing this scene, the big men who were still standing aside with a smile suddenly turned red and chased after the big man who wanted to escape.

Even Shuk, who had always been calm, widened his eyes at the moment, and shouted, "Chase him!"

"Whoever grabbed the gold coin, give it to me, and I will give him half of it!"

Rory looked at the chaotic and funny scene in front of him, and for some reason, his heart began to be terrified.

Wrong!

Something must be wrong!

Cold sweat kept running down his forehead, and his legs trembled uncontrollably.

But no matter how much he tried, he still stood still, not moving the slightest.

"Isn't it enough? ”

Lillian opened her mouth and tilted her head, looking at Shuk not far away, smiling strangely.

What the?!

Shuk turned to look at Lillian.

She reached into the thin cloth garment and pulled out another gold coin.

Ignoring Lilian's strange appearance, Schuke's mind was full of the golden thing.

"That's mine!"

He shouted, running towards Lillian.

But there was a big man who was one step ahead of him, and took the gold coin.

"Kaza, you bastard, give him to me!"

The dwarf-like Shuk rage was comical.

"There's more. ”

Lillian continued to laugh.

Her hand continued to reach into her garment, pulling out one shining gold coin after another.

In a few moments, a mountain of gold coins had piled up in her hand, and she was still digging for them.

At this time, anyone can detect her weirdness.

Even Shuk, whose head was full of gold coins, couldn't help but start a cold war at this moment.

As if dissatisfied with the speed at which she took it out, Lillian threw all the gold coins in her hand on the ground, and began to take off the cloth clothes on her body with both hands.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Shuk's pupils couldn't help but dilate.

The cloth fell to the ground, but the people did not see Lillian's body.

All they saw was gold coins, which kept falling from Lillian's body.

"Whoa, whoa!"

The pleasant sound of the gold coin landing is like a funeral song at this moment, making people get goosebumps.

Lillian's face began to dissolve.

There was no trace of the human body in her whole body, and some of them were just gold coins.

In a few moments, Lillian was a puddle of soft sap made of gold coins.

White bones and blood-colored organs flowed on the juice.

The juice was flowing so fast that before everyone could react, their feet were already sinking into the viscous gold coin liquid.

Listening to the sound coming from the liquid, everyone couldn't help but start screaming.

"There's more money. ”

"Weird...... Monsters have appeared in the ghetto!"

Alan and the three were enjoying lunch when suddenly, the door of the office was pushed open, and a guard broke in, and because he was in such a hurry, he accidentally tripped over the threshold and fell to the ground.

"Let's go. ”

Hearing the guard's words, Mia put down the cutlery in her hand, ignored the guards who were getting up, and ran towards the door.

After Allen reacted, he also hurriedly followed.

Old Oak frowned, lowered his head, and continued to eat the chicken, but his hand holding the knife and fork trembled a little.

"Lift the bandage and use your Falcon Feather!"

As soon as he went out, Alan heard Mia's voice in his ears.

Mia ripped the bandage off her hand and pulled out a feather from the sacrificial bag, which looked exactly like Alan's.

She clutched the feather in her hand, and for a moment, a red glow flashed between her legs.

In the blink of an eye, Mia's figure had already appeared a few meters away.

Seeing Mia flickering away quickly, Alan also ripped off the bandage, took out the Falcon Feather, and placed it in the palm of his right hand.

The magic passed through the mouth and was instilled into the feather.

Suddenly, Alan only felt that his body was much lighter, and as long as he moved slightly, he could appear a few meters away.

"That's ...... so"

With a thought, Allen's figure dragged out a red line and appeared in the middle of the street.

Seeing this strange scene, the surrounding passers-by were startled and sat on the ground screaming one by one.

This...... It's a teleportation!

At the moment of movement, everything around seemed to have turned into an afterimage, which was even more terrifying than the shrinkage of the ground in martial arts.

Ignoring the Muggles, Alan urged the power brought by the Falcon Feather and hurried in the direction of the slums.

By the time he approached the slums, the streets were already filled with panicked people, pushing and shoving the people in front of him one by one, their faces covered with sweat and their legs almost weak.

"Monsters! There are monsters in the slums!"

"Run for your life!"

Looking at the almost impassable road, Alan changed his direction.

With Hayabusa's speed, he could even climb onto the roof in the blink of an eye.

Quickly shuttling between houses, it was only more than half a minute, and Alan was already in the slum.

Is that......

Allen's gaze was locked on the center of the ghetto.

A monster as big as a hill is sweeping through the house.

The monster's whole body was covered with flowing gold coins, and on its huge body, in addition to a few huge golden tentacles, there were also many human faces composed of gold coins.

The faces let out a silent wail, full of pain.

"It's a Golden Desire Slime. ”

Mia quietly appeared beside Allen, holding a fiery sword in her hand that constantly emitted fire.

Lust Slime?

Seeing Mia's appearance, Eren also took out the fragment of the axe he had used earlier from the sacrificial bag, turned it into a giant axe, and held it in his hand.

"One-star monster, don't be careless. ”

Leaving these words, Mia's figure turned into a red afterimage, and roared towards the raging Golden Desire Slime.

Not to be outdone, Eren followed closely behind Mia.

As soon as the two approached, the Golden Slime seemed to smell something, and a tentacle struck towards the trajectory of the two.

But how could its sluggish body match the speed of Hayabusa Feather, and Eren and the two easily avoided the tentacle and appeared beside it.

Smelling the stench coming from the nearby monsters, Alan did not hesitate in the slightest, and slashed at the slime's foot, which was thicker than an elephant's leg.

The axe was embedded deep in the slime's leg, and a piece of gold flew out and struck Eren in the face.

"Roar!"

The slime was in pain and was about to fight back, but Mia's ghostly figure appeared next to one of its tentacles.

The flaming sword slashed into the tentacle with a deafening sound of metal grinding.

The moment it was touched, the intense heat dissolved the gold on the tentacles, and the sharp blades slashed into the charred tentacles.

The tentacle was cut off, arcing through the air and falling to the ground.

The slime was battered, its massive body staggering.

Just as Eren pulled the axe out of the slime's leg and wanted to make another axe, the slime's body began to tremble.

The painful faces opened their mouths one after another, and hard pieces composed of gold coins attacked Alan and Mia.

Blessed by the memories of Hayabusa and Front's battle, Allen's figure appeared behind a nearby house in an instant, dodging the stormy bombardment.

Mia was more relaxed, and in a flash, she appeared on the other side of the slime, and the fiery greatsword continued to slash towards the slime's body.

Each of her slashes made the slime's body tremble, and at the same time brought out many charred golden objects.

Allen's figure reappears next to the slime, and the axe continues to swing towards the slime's leg.

After only three strokes, the slime's leg was severed by a sharp axe blade.

The slime, like a small mountain, fell to the ground, his body writhing and looking disgusting.

Mia jumped up suddenly, and the fire on the greatsword in her hand was even stronger, slashing towards the top of the slime.

Just between the lightning and flint, the slime's massive form split in half from the top, and the gold coins on its body kept spilling and making a crisp sound.

"It's over. ”

Mia appeared next to Alan, her sword waving through the air.

The fragments of Alan's axe also drained their life force and disappeared into his hands.

The slime's body, made up of countless gold coins, gradually turned into a black, foul-smelling tissue that evaporated rapidly.

Even the gold coins that had been spilled in the battle were now black residues.

Those gold coins are all the product of the desire of monsters, and naturally they are not real.

As the slime's body gradually dissipates, its prototype is revealed.

It's her?

Alan looked at the face of the old woman in front of him and froze where he was.

The person in front of him was Lilian, who had asked him for two silver coins in the morning.

At this moment, Lilian's body was covered with all kinds of human tissues that emitted a foul smell, and only a fair face was exposed, crying incessantly.

"Daniel...... Rory ......"

She looked at her hands, black blood gushing out of her eyes.

Seeing this scene, Allen, who already prides himself on being hard-hearted, can't help but be in a trance.

If he hadn't disliked the old woman at the time, he gave her two silver coins......

It shouldn't have happened, right?

He looked at Lillian's face ravaged by the years and couldn't help but ask himself this question.

Two silver coins are nothing to a magician.

But for people like Lillian who live at the bottom, maybe they can change their lives.

Alan began to doubt his decision.

"Sacrifice her. ”

Mia walked up to Lillian, and her voice still sounded so steady, so impersonal.

Raising his right hand, Alan looked at the non-stop drooling devil's mouth, a little overwhelmed.

"Sacrifice her!"

Mia seemed to get a little impatient.

She looked up and saw Allen, who was still in place, his figure flashing.

"Smack!"
