Chapter 67: Preparing to Run
After a few more days, the Azure Sword continued to go out to train, and found that the Templars who had been guarding the door of the Licinius Mansion were now all gone.
Not only that, but if everyone stayed outside for a while, they would attract the nearby spiritual polluters...... There were no monsters approaching at this time.
It was as if the Templars and polluters had collectively taken a leave of absence.
"Vesta." Nora looked back and asked, "What's going on out there?" Have all the polluters been cleaned up? β
"Miss Nola." Vesta's voice rang from the hall, "The Holy See has issued a temporary Treaty of Immunity for the Extraordinary, employing the Transcendent to clean up the polluters in the city, and the Templars have gone over to help maintain order." β
Asker: ..................
What the? In this world without players, how can there be monster robbers?!
"In that case, let's go find the polluters ourselves." Aske and the girls said.
After walking a few blocks, everyone saw a combination of Templars + Transcendentals, surrounding several Spiritual Polluters and beating them up.
Their tactics are bizarre: since the Psitrons do not attack non-spiritual humans, the Templars form the ChΓ©ng RΓ©n Flesh Wall to collectively restrict the movement of the Spectrators - leg-hugging, waist-hugging, and koala neck-hanging, entangled around the polluter's body as if they were carrying a load.
The Spiritual Polluter ignored the heavy restrictions on his body, and just forcibly rushed towards the transcendents in the distance.
The way the transcendents play is a more obscene kite tactic. Ran away, continued to fight at a distance, and soon consumed the polluters alive.
Girls: ..................
"This ...... Are we still fighting? They asked the head of the regiment hesitantly.
"Hit!" Asker gritted his teeth.
After about half an hour, everyone finally found a lone spiritual polluter on a deserted street, and was about to take the lead, when suddenly a few clouds of viscous liquid shot from a distance, and with a snap, the polluter was shot into the wall.
This is...... Asker looked closely, it was a Templar spider web.
This thing shoots ultra-high molecular slime, which oxidizes into a viscous liquid in the air, and once attached to the human body, it quickly tangles up, rendering the target incapacitated - it is quite useful for catching monsters.
Taking advantage of the restraint, Sidlifa threw the Axe of the North Wind at it, but a cloud of flame struck the Polluter's spirit first, killing the Polluter.
"Hey!" She turned around angrily, rushed to the transcendent who shot behind, and grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up, "This polluter was found by us first, you dare to rob our prey?" β
The transcendent was caught in her neck, and for a moment his face turned blue and breathless, and he could only slap the flames in his hand towards her.
However, a cold air quickly rose around Sidlifa's body, and the flames were suppressed and extinguished in an instant. Then an electric current came out of her arm, and at once the transcendent was paralyzed, and he trembled all over, and his hair stood on end.
"What are you doing!" In the distance, the shouts of the transcendent companion could be heard.
Italy plus the transcendents here, the bloodline of various magic swordsmen is more popular, that is, the combination of physics + arcane. I saw that some of these transcendents drew their great swords, and the sword body rose with raging flames; Others held a thrusting rapier with a rushing electric current.
Seeing that their companions were being held hostage by Sidlifa, these transcendents ignored it for the first time and attacked Sidlifa.
Then they flew into the sky.
In weightlessness, these transcendents could hardly find a place to borrow their strength in the air, and could only wave their limbs in vain. Someone saw that it was a masked girl casting a spell below, and threw a thunderbolt at her.
However, Sheila just calmly turned sideways and avoided the thunder's blow, while activating the storm ability again.
Several transcendents suspended in the air immediately began to spin, as if they had been swept into a tornado, and they were almost unable to find north.
"Wait, misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding! The accompanying Templars also rushed over, recognizing these people as the transcendents of the Licinius family, and hurriedly stepped forward to laugh and persuade them.
Sheila saw that she had actually helped lead the monster a few days ago, so she put these transcendents down - these guys were turned in the sky for a long time, and their legs were weak after they landed, and they couldn't get up at all when they lay on the ground.
"What's the matter with you people? When we were cleaning up the polluters, I thought they were attacking us! Without waiting for the other party to speak, Sheila preemptively accused in dissatisfaction.
"Sorry, sorry, we didn't see you there." The Templars were preempted by the other party, so they had to quibble.
In fact, the cobwebs were fired by the Templars, so it was nonsense not to see them there. However, Sheila had no intention of continuing to entangle with these vulgar warriors, and just waved her hand irritably and told them to get out.
"Forget it." Asker watched as these people helped each other to leave, and was silent for a moment, "Today's training plan is canceled, let's go back." β
"Are you going back?" Sidlifa was a little disappointed.
"Well, now the situation has changed. There are many people and few monsters, and there is no need to fight for scarce resources. Aske replied.
Back in the Licinius Building, the girls were a little emotional, as if the original travel plan had been suddenly canceled, which made people unhappy.
Nora called Vesta and contacted her brother, Bishop Valyan, to inquire about the transcendent on the street.
Although she couldn't hear anything in her tone, Bishop Valyan, who was familiar with the character of the little sister, of course noticed that she was in a somewhat unhappy mood at this time, so he explained with a wry smile.
All in all, it was the efficiency of the Azure Sword in cleaning up the polluters some time ago that attracted the attention of the cardinals, so someone proposed to copy this model and pull out all the transcendents in the city to clear the monsters, and the result became the current situation.
Nora was also a little depressed when she heard this. Why do you still copy the homework of our transcendental beings?
But after all, this is the decision of the Holy See, and she has no qualifications and no way to object, so she can only silently follow Asker and the others back by elevator.
Back upstairs, everyone casually found a place to sit down.
Mia and Mia change into swimsuits and take a dip in the indoor pool. Sidlifa and Eleanor sat at the bar drinking and watched the two little girls splash water on each other.
Nora came back with some books and videotapes and gave them to Sheila and Medea.
Sheila is given documentaries of various natural disasters, such as volcanic eruptions, storms, cold snaps, earthquakes or tsunamis, etc.; For Medea were books on psychology and forensics. She took a copy of "The Theory of Evolution" herself, found a corner of the room, and read it quietly.
There were still sporadic gunshots in the distance, but they were much more sparse than in previous days.
After all, gunpowder weapons have little effect on the polluter, while the abilities of the transcendent are more convenient, no ammunition, no fuel, as long as a little bit of spiritual energy can be automatically restored.
Therefore, throughout the day, the Templars cooperated with the Transcendent Squad, effectively eliminating the polluters in the city, so that the expansion momentum of the mutation was even suppressed.
The ground floor of the Licinius Building, which used to be harassed by at least a dozen polluters every day, is now also a crowd - after all, the whole city is now full of transcendents, and there is no need for monsters to stare at this place to storm the tower.
Yawning, Nora slowly closed the book, and saw that it was already dark outside, with occasional flames and thunder piercing the night sky.
"Asker." She came up to the rocking chair and asked, "What are we going to do tomorrow?" β
"If there are fewer and fewer psionic polluters, do we need to cancel our training program right now?"
"Cancel it." Aske said lazily, "Pack up your things, throw them on the Fire Island, we're going to get ready to run." β
"Runaway?" Nora asked in surprise.
"The polluters are all doppelgangers of the Spiritual Tree." "It's like lice on a rat." β
"You don't think that if you kill all the lice, the rats will run away in terror, do you? When the time comes, as soon as the Spiritual Tree itself comes out, these transcendent beings will all go to send experience. β
"The Holy See is probably also having a similar idea, trying to force the manifestation of the Spiritual Tree as soon as possible. But I guess they won't be able to deal with it if they really come out, and they have to run away...... Anyway, let's get ready. β
