Chapter 6: The Mist

Ahh ”

Asora sneezed and let out a small whimper, wrapping herself tighter inside her sleeping bag.

Burn, headache, nausea, nausea...... Probably never felt so bad for a witch to slayer, right? Usually accustomed to relying on magic to regulate the temperature of the body, but because of this, the body's resistance drops sharply, and as a result, he is defeated in the face of a rainstorm, and has to face the bad situation of a severe cold in front of him.

In fact, the rain was still pouring outside, and Asora was able to curl up in her warm sleeping bag like this and moan because Yihao had set up a tent for her.

Dark clouds obscured the sun overhead, and the torrential rain caused the road conditions and vision to deteriorate dramatically. Fortunately, they got out of the canyon before the rainstorm poured, and they didn't have to worry about the danger of mudslides and so on, as a result, Yihao chose a relatively flat high ground as a camp around the area, and should have cleared the ground before setting up a tent, but at that time, Asola in the tow bucket was already so cold that he hugged his shoulders and shivered, so Yihao just kicked a few stones hastily, and he didn't even have time to dig the drainage ditch, so he quickly set up a folding tent, and then dragged Asola into the tent.

The soaked clothes kept taking away the wearer's body temperature, and Asora's lips were faintly darkened, and without a change of clothes, Yihao simply told Asola to take off her clothes and hide in her sleeping bag. Satan's daughter of course expressed strong indignation at this abrupt and rude request, but the greatly decayed body was unable to resist the strength of the Iron Gate warriors, so Asola was forcibly stripped naked by Yihao. Thrown into a sleeping bag like a liquell.

For the famous killing witch, her will was ignored by others, and this kind of experience was the first time in her life, and she naturally felt extremely humiliated, but her physical condition made her have no strength to protest, so she could only watch Yihao jump out of the tent, not knowing what to do in the rainstorm.

After settling Asora. Yihao then burst out of the tent and braved the torrential rain to dig a drainage ditch outside, although the tent itself was waterproof, but if the water exceeded its waterproof limit. It's still going to be flooded inside. In the past two years of exile to Houston, Yihao has accumulated a wealth of outdoor survival experience, so it is easy to complete the excavation of the drainage ditch, and then drive the ground nails that have not had time to fix it into the ground, and the tent will be reinforced.

Based on past experience, the current rainstorm will probably continue until tomorrow, and of course, it will not be possible to move forward against the torrential rain. Yihao took out the tarpaulin to cover the motorcycle, fastened it to it with a rope, and then pulled out the portable stove from his luggage and rushed to the tent with dry food.

Inside the tent, Asora was still shrunk in her sleeping bag, and her soaked clothes were thrown aside, probably to regain her body temperature, and Asora's originally pale face also regained her blood color slightly.

I saw Yihao come in with a bunch of things. The Witch of Slaughter immediately tilted her head to the side and snorted heavily from her nose as if to express dissatisfaction. However, Yihao completely ignored her reaction. Walk straight to the other corner of the tent, take off your clothes, and wipe yourself with a towel.

"You...... What are you doing! Asora immediately called out.

"What? Of course, it's a change of clothes, and even if I wear wet clothes all the time in this weather, I'll catch a cold. Yihao rightfully asserted.

After roughly drying himself with an absorbent towel, he took off his wet clothes and took them outside the tent along with Asora. Because the original selection was a high-end double account. In addition to the inner tent for resting, there was also a small rain-proof front hall, so he roughly wrung out the wet clothes and put them directly outside, anyway, no matter how dry it in this weather, it was impossible to dry it.

After finally making sure that the tent was in good shape, Asola was playing with the things he had brought in, portable gas stoves, folding cookers, and so on, all of which she had never seen before, and Asora was lying in her sleeping bag, fiddling with these things with great interest, and for a moment even forgot about the fact that she was in poor health.

"What's all that for?"

"Simply put, it's a cookware that's easy to use in the wild, right? I prefer to cook food over a campfire, but I can't help it in this weather......" Yihao shrugged his shoulders regretfully, took the gas stove from Asora's hand, and lit it on the ground.

"Wow!" The blue flames brought light and heat to the dark tent, and Asora, like a child, let out a cry of surprise, and subconsciously reached out to touch the gas stove.

"Hey! Don't touch it, if you set the tent on fire, we'll have to sleep in the wilderness tonight! ”

Yihao greeted Asora, who retracted his hand in surprise when he heard this, and then glared at him very dissatisfied, but when he saw Yihao using a knife to cut open the packaging of the plastic bag and put the large piece of dry food inside into a small pot, he couldn't help but show a curious look.

"So what are you doing now?"

"Aren't you hungry for dinner, of course?" Yihao winked teasingly.

“…… I am hungry. Asora reluctantly admits it. I want to eat grilled lamb chops. ”

"Grilled lamb chops? Please, my king, there's no grilled lamb chops here. Yihao smiled wryly as he added water to the pot and then put it on the stove. There are only two types of curry, the unsavory curry and the unsavory compressed biscuits, but if you have the strength, you can also do it

Go get the grilled lamb chops you want to eat...... It's not a difficult thing to do anywhere, and after a day or two of a rainstorm, you can leave the enchantment and go back to the Dark Guild or hell or something, and they'll be honored to work for you. ”

“…… Then I want curry rice. Asora raised her hand feebly.

"Then wait quietly for ten minutes...... It's true, if you're a patient, don't give me such a kick......" Yihao pressed his head and put Asola on the ground, and then focused on stirring up the food in the pot.

The torrential rain continued outside, and the dense raindrops made a "crumbling" sound on the outer tent, but in the inner tent, which was only a few centimeters apart. But it is overflowing with quiet and stable time.

Asora shrunk into her sleeping bag with only her head exposed, looking at Yihao, her face showed a deep outline under the reflection of the faint firelight, looking quite similar to the demons of the past, but it seemed to be very different. Asora couldn't tell what was the difference between the two. Just looking at Yihao, who was concentrating on stirring coffee in the firelight, his body involuntarily relaxed, and his heart seemed to be stepping on a pile of cotton.

An indescribable sense of security welled up in my heart, though it was just a narrow tent swaying in the wind and rain. But Asora felt more comfortable than staying in the palace of the Demon King, who was extremely luxurious. There is no need to say anything, and there is no need to think about anything, just like the cat snuggled on the owner's lap, Asola is filled with lazy satisfaction, if Yihao strokes her head once or twice at this moment, maybe Asora will be comfortable calling out.

It's a pity that the man who didn't understand the amorous feelings just looked at Asora inexplicably and asked. "That. Is there anything on my face? ”

"Nothing, nothing." Asora nervously turned her head away. "Are you familiar with these?"

"Well, I used to stay here alone for two years, and during that time, I often drove my motorcycle to the wilderness, so I didn't like it......" Yihao habitually touched his chin. Speaking of which, the two years of exile from Zhiyuan can be said to be a peaceful life that I have been looking forward to. But in that calm, I always feel anxious for some reason, and when I realize it, I often run into the wilderness unconsciously...... Although it may also be called by karma. But it's still genetic, right? ”

"Heredity?"

"Yes, my dad also likes to carry his luggage around the world all day long, although in recent years, under the supervision of my mother, it has converged a lot, but now that the world has become like this, that guy should be ready to move again......" Yihao scratched his head and couldn't help but sigh. Although he has always believed that his character should be more suitable for pursuing a peaceful and stable life. But he doesn't particularly hate the tense days of running for a certain purpose like this. Although he is very reluctant to admit this, it seems that the bloodline of the Iron Clan has also endowed him with the same destiny as his ancestors......

"Anyway, that's all for that guy, the curry is almost ready......" Yihao shook his head, got rid of his bad imagination, turned off the gas stove, and handed the cooked curry rice to Asora. Although it is a food, as long as it is not too picky, it tastes pretty good...... After eating a full meal, and then sleeping well, the demon's resistance to diseases is already stronger than that of humans, and many small colds can be recovered as long as they recuperate overnight. ”

"Yes, I know." Asora took the utensils from Yihao and began to eat quietly.

Of course, Yihao didn't say anything, and focused on his dinner, the rainstorm outside the tent seemed to gradually fade, the dense rain sound of "bang-la-la" turned into a rhythm drum beating on the outside, Yihao listened to this natural rhythm with a comfortable mood, and this expression fell into the eyes of the demon princess next to her, which seemed to make her decide something.

"Well, so be it." Asora thumped her left hand and declared. "The King has decided to reward you for your loyalty, and let Lilith stay with you tonight."

"Hmm...... Cough! Ahem! Yihao, who was swallowing, immediately coughed violently.

……………………

It is said that the girl's body temperature is a good medicine for fever, and although it is not known whether it will affect the effect after the men and women switch sides, in any case, Asola recovered to a full state when the sun rose the next day, but Yihao looked quite haggard due to lack of sleep.

Breakfast was made of compressed biscuits and mixed juice, and although there was nothing to be fussy about in terms of nutrition, it was difficult to see the process as fun, so Yihao and Asora quickly finished their breakfast, simply packed their things, and then hit the road again.

The motorcycle drove along the muddy road towards the Tower of Babel in the distance, because it rained all night yesterday, the weather suddenly cooled down a lot, and from time to time it swept over the surrounding grasslands and trees, and it was easy to make people feel like going on an outing. In the lush green pastures of summer, cattle and sheep can be seen grazing leisurely with their tails flicking, and it is difficult to perceive the catastrophe facing this land if it were not for the shocking dilapidated farm buildings behind them.

Yihao even got out of the car and went to the ruins to check the results, just as he expected. None of the survivors could not see even a single corpse.

Needless to say, these are certainly the masterpieces of Angelmon.

The strange creatures created by the mutation of the human body do not seem to be affected by the spiritual interference barrier, and they are free to move freely in this area. This made Yihao even more convinced that the Tower of Babel was a qiē

The judgment of the head, but at the same time confused. Because he was with him along the way. The destruction is all inhabited land, uninhabited buildings, unoccupied livestock sheds and fields, and there is no sign of attack, and not only that, cattle and sheep, which are supposed to be more valuable as prey than humans, also have little sign of being killed. Angelmon has completely set its hunt target on humans.

Considering the Angel Beast's strange way of eating, there is no doubt that there is some kind of key to this, but to Yihao's distress, most of the puzzle pieces that have been his speculative logic so far are missing.

After a morning's drive, Yihao and Asora had arrived in a small town, though it was hard to take it for granted. But the town, like everything you see along the way, is uninhabited. It's just a slight difference that this town doesn't have any traces of destruction like other places, and even retains the normal supply of water and electricity, and the Angel Beast doesn't seem to have been here yet, as if all the townspeople had run away from home.

Yihao walked around the town and finally came back with a bottle of mineral water from a closed shop.

". Things are getting weirder and weirder......"

Yihao drank most of the bottles of mineral water in one go, but he couldn't relieve the depression in his heart, and couldn't help but smash the plastic bottle in his hand. But he saw Asola running to the top of a nearby tower at some point, and was looking intently into the distance.

"Did you see anything?"

"Huhu......" Asola, who turned around, waved to Yihao with a cat-like expression. Thank me, maybe there's something you're looking for! ”

"What?" Yihao jumped directly from the roof to the tower, and looked down Asora's finger. for there is no shelter in the plains. In addition, the sunny weather also opened his field of vision, so he could easily see the smoke and dust on the distant horizon, but due to the distance, it was difficult to understand further. "That's ...... Motorcade? ”

"There are not many cars in there, and most people use them to walk...... Oh, oh, and the horseback riders, that's ...... Oxcart? It's like a refugee camp...... "Asola explained to Yihao that the demon's natural abilities allowed her to see more clearly in the distance. "It's at least thirty kilometers from here, and it looks like we're heading towards that tower...... What to do with the feed? Do you want to chase after it? ”

"Nonsense!"

Finally finding the clue, Yihao couldn't help but show an excited expression, jumped off the tower, and while he was moving the motorcycle, Asora also sat in the tow bucket.

"Do you think they're the inhabitants of this town?"

"Catch up and ask!"

Thirty kilometers is not a short distance, but the opponent's movement is quite slow, and Yihao and Asora, who are chasing with all their might, still catch up with the moving convoy an hour later. Yihao parked his car on the top of the hill, and the convoy was moving slowly on foot less than a kilometer down the hill, allowing Yihao to see the group below.

As Asora had said before, it was quite reluctant to call it a convoy, and the convoy consisted of only five vehicles from start to finish, half of which were trucks, and the boxes that were usually used to load goods were crowded with people, mostly elderly and children, all of whom looked exhausted and depressed. In addition to these modern means of transport, there were several horse-drawn carriages and ox carts, which were almost full of people, and many more were walking on foot, their clothes and shoes and socks quite dirty, and their faces were covered with sweat and dust, and they walked staggeringly like refugees after a long journey, ready to fall down at any moment.

However, what is puzzling is that even when the wolf bèi arrives at this point, they still move with difficulty and continue to move towards the Tower of Babel.

"That tower is really very problematic......" Yihao's gaze naturally extended to the Tower of Babel in the distance, but he subconsciously frowned, after more than a day of hurrying, they were now relatively close to the Tower of Babel, so they could see its appearance more clearly, but it was distorted but overwhelmingly large, and it was really difficult for people to feel close. Anyway, let's go down and ask why those guys have to go for that tower. ”

"If you're going, you'd better hurry." Asora, who was next to her, pointed somewhere to the left of the convoy. "There's a smell of blood coming from there."

"What?" Yihao followed her finger and looked at it, only to see smoke and dust rising from the plain to the left of the convoy, and three jeeps were heading towards the convoy, and the jeeps were painted with green camouflage and heavy machine guns behind them, obviously of a military style, and Yihao breathed a sigh of relief after confirming this. "What, isn't that an army?"

"If it's an army, the smell of blood on their bodies is a little too strong......" Asola pulled out the tactical knife at his waist and pulled it in his hand. It's like a murderer. ”

"Could it be ......" Yihao quickly adjusted the focus, and at this time, the three jeeps were already approaching, and seeing the formation like a wolf pack hunting, Yihao understood their intentions for a moment, but it was too late to stop it.

The next moment, the roar of three heavy machine guns and the screams of the crowd whose bodies were torn apart by bullets kicked off the bloody prelude on the ground.
