Chapter 638: A Territory with Heavy Casualties
After the three-headed demon dog is killed.
The cracks in the sky gradually became transparent, and then little by little, they disappeared from the sky, and finally, even the strange burgundy color disappeared without a trace.
"Oh, this disaster seems to be over!"
Dotea looked up at the sky, a sound of surprise in her mouth, and reached out and smacked Egrey's arm, motioning for her to look at the sky.
"Huh?"
Aeglei was stunned for a moment, then came back to her senses, stroked her pounding heart, and glanced at Ryusha with burning eyes, before turning her head to look at the sky in the direction Doteya pointed, and sure enough, the cracks were all gone.
And after the crack disappeared, not a single monster fell from the sky, only skeletons, beetles, and demon dogs that had not yet been cleared, wandering around the grasslands and other places.
The endless casting of monsters seems to have finally come to an end.
"It's over, it's really over...... That's great! ”
Seeing this, Aigree was slightly stunned, and the whole person couldn't help but relax, and a smile like the aftermath of the catastrophe appeared on her face.
The disaster only lasted for five hours in total, but because of the constant flow of monsters, she didn't have time to rest for a few minutes, and she tensed up mentally and physically the whole time, and kept fighting.
It was only at this moment, after she was sure that the catastrophe that had struck the entire territory was finally over, that she completely relaxed, and her tense face showed a look of fatigue and exhaustion.
"Let's go back and fix it first, and then organize a team and clean up the surrounding monsters."
Under Dotea's control, Ryusha floated back into the air and proposed to Aegrey, "I have other slaves too, and I'll let them help deal with some monsters first, and save the survivors as much as possible." ”
"Then thank you, Your Excellency, although I really want to continue fighting, but I have almost reached the limit, and I am a little powerless, but it is a pity that the inhabitants of the territory ......"
After thanking Ryuxia, Egler fell silent again, looking at the small village not far from the grassland.
That village was the same village that Lu Xia and the others had seen when they first came to this world, there were only more than ten households, and it was just a small village.
However, after the devastation of the wave, the village has been completely destroyed, the houses, fences, etc. have become dilapidated, and there are still many corpses lying there on the ground, and the blood stains next to them have obviously dried up long ago.
"That's the sub-people who my father sheltered, and the sub-people who built up their villages are generally much stronger than humans, and even if they are destroyed by this disaster, most of the other villages will also suffer heavy casualties......
Even in towns protected by the army and adventurers, the death and casualty rate of the inhabitants is more than seventy percent, and it is almost impossible for such a village with no resistance to survive the endless army of monsters.
And that's exactly what happened.
Reading the memories of the ghosts he had turned into through his hands, Ryusha also discovered that although Estes was active in several surrounding villages, the total number of survivors in all the surrounding villages did not exceed thirty.
This is the result of Estes deliberately protecting a few people, if it weren't for her, living about ten people would probably be the limit of these villages.
Fortunately, Ryuxia moved a little faster, and killed the wave boss in just five hours, if you wait a day or two, and wait for the Kingdom Knights to come to the rescue, the number of survivors may be less than a few percent.
Egler took the initiative to go into the subhuman village and try to find some survivors.
Maybe some sub-people fled or hid, but in the ruined village, there was really not a single living mouth, no matter what race the sub-people were, all of them lay there, without a trace of breath.
After a long silence, Aegler returned to the two of them, and with Doteya's help, she refloated and flew in the direction of the Lord's Palace.
After returning to the Lord's Mansion, Aegler didn't even have time to take a bath, so she went straight back to her room to rest.
And the adventurers and soldiers who had been resting for a long time gathered into a team on their own without her, and wandered around the territory to hunt the remaining monsters.
On the one hand, Egre personally promised to be rewarded afterwards, and on the other hand, by killing these monsters, they can also gain a lot of experience points, so as to improve their own strength.
Some squads also invited Ryusha and Doteya, trying to use the power of the two of them to kill monsters on a large scale, so as to level up quickly, but they were all casually rejected by the two.
These squads, who had seen Ryuxia's strength, didn't dare to say anything when they saw this, so they could only leave in disappointment.
Two hours later, Aegler changed her clothes and returned to the halls of the Lord's Palace, intending to lead the army to sweep away the surrounding monsters.
"After only two hours of rest, can your body hold up?"
Ryusha glanced at her and asked her with a worried look in words that fit the hero's character.
Her face was still thick with tiredness, and her emerald eyes were covered with scarlet bloodshots, and she looked extremely tired.
"Thank you for your concern, but no problem, it's just a small matter."
Egler smiled a little reluctantly at Ryuxia, "If you get rid of the remaining monsters a moment earlier, you can save one more resident of the territory, compared to this, I'm just a little tired, it's nothing at all." ”
Next year is not very old, but he is quite responsible.
In this era and country where slavery was still legal, such leaders who thought about the inhabitants of the territory were probably really rare.
Seeing that she insisted, Lu Xia naturally did not stop her, and made a look of respecting her choice.
"Mistress Aegrey......"
However, before they could set off, a soldier walked into the lord's mansion, looked at Aigree with some hesitation, and gritted his teeth before speaking with a sad expression.
"While we were patrolling outside, we found the relics of the lord......"
As he spoke, he handed out a bloodstained garment and handed it to Aglay.
"Father...... How so? ”
Egrey's already reluctant will was suddenly crushed, and her face instantly turned pale.
In fact, she had already guessed in her heart that with her father's personality, if she was really alive, she would have come out long ago and led the residents to resist this disaster with her.
But she fought in the town for five hours straight, and she didn't see him at all, and at that time, she already had a vague premonition in her heart.
It's just that she didn't want to admit it in her heart before, until this moment, after seeing her father's relics, the luck in her heart was suddenly ruthlessly destroyed, and her heart was like ashes in an instant.
