Chapter 21: The Destruction of the Eyes
"Uncle Linus!"
"Big Brother Earthen Pot!"
"Toby! Toby! ”
"Where are you all?"
"Can anyone come out for a while......"
Celia shouted hoarsely, her voice almost hoarse.
But she didn't give up looking.
It's just that the entire Elwyn defense line is full of corpses of soldiers and monsters.
These soldiers, some of whom had not had time to evacuate, were soldiers of the Delos Empire.
Others were soldiers sent by the Duchy of Mar to garrison the Gran Forest.
But more people came from the Elwyn Line, some villagers in the local villages.
Their strength is not bad, and there are even some caretakers, who were formerly adventurers.
Under normal circumstances, even monsters with Glen no Mori want to come out and attack humans.
They couldn't break through the Elwyn Line and get here to the village.
But the devastated scene in front of me is beyond the normal scope.
"Uncle Linus, I know you're still alive, you're so strong, you'll definitely be fine!"
"Toby, you are a ghost, hurry up and let my sister out, don't let my sister worry!"
"Brother earthen pot, you should come out quickly, I won't tease your jar anymore, as long as you come out, I will definitely open it ten times in a row!"
Selia cried and cried, but the whole village was silent, and no one responded to her words.
This made her feel a little desperate, and then she couldn't help but sob.
Rimuru followed Selia, a little unsure of how to comfort her.
The situation in front of us is indeed very bad.
So, he could only look around first to see if there were any clues.
A moment later.
Rimuru soon noticed that some of the wheels had been rolled over.
What's more, he found that the people who died here were all soldiers in armor.
This made Rimuru's hanging heart suddenly relaxed.
In fact, he was quite worried that the NPCs he was familiar with would die here.
But at the moment, they don't have much to do.
"Don't cry, Celeya, they're all right.
I looked at it and found that all the people here were soldiers, and not a single civilian died here.
And I also saw dozens of marks that had been rolled over by wheels.
So I'm going to speculate on a wave, and that's that they've been picked up before the battle breaks out. ”
"Really......"
Selia nodded, wiped away her tears, and walked forward.
Along the way, both of them could see some scattered corpses.
It's just that they didn't move, they left it as it was.
Celiah then went to the door of a blacksmith shop and pushed open the bloodstained door.
On the shelves of the blacksmith's shop, Celia found a rudimentary envelope.
She wiped her tears and opened them.
Rimuru stepped forward and glanced curiously.
Inside the whole envelope, there are not too many words.
It's just that Linus and the earthen pot are temporarily evacuated with the troops of the Duchy of Mar.
The whole village followed suit.
As for Toby, he returned to the Goblin Tribe after Seria entered the Gran Forest.
In other words, only Toby's whereabouts are unknown at the moment, and everyone else has left the Elwin Line.
In this letter, there is one last sentence.
That was the Duchy of Mar, which had sent people to take over the Elwyn Line in the past two days.
Rimuru frowned.
If someone comes, the matter of his desire to establish a monster kingdom is likely to be exposed in advance.
But it's all trivial.
Now the main thing is, how to arrange Selia.
"Selia, are you going to take a trip to the Duchy of Mar, or are you going to ......?"
"No, I want to follow you, Miss Rimuru!
I know I'm asking a little too much, but I know magic, and I can do some healing!
I can act as a paladin, help you recover from your injuries and strength, and I can also help you carry things.
Because I need to investigate the Great Magic Circle and the Gran Forest monster riot, I can't leave.
Plus my good friend Toby is also missing, I need to find him......"
Selia's voice grew quieter and quieter, obviously sensing that her request was a little excessive.
However, Fang Zheng nodded, then stood on tiptoe, patted Celia's head and smiled.
"In that case, then you can follow, I can still do it to protect you.
But there's one thing you need to be careful about, and that's don't leave the team without my permission. ”
"I see, thank you, Miss Rimuru!"
Selia was very happy, but Rimuru was not.
"I've said it all, I'm a man! Male! ”
"Miss Rimuru, you don't have to stress all the time, I understand."
"You know the ...... of"
Rimuru muttered helplessly, and then returned to the Gran Forest with Selia.
It's just that when the two of them returned to Gran Grove this time.
But I encountered hordes of monsters!
Dense cat demons and minotaurs are gradually converging not far away.
Rimuru even saw that Sauta, whose eyes were red, was among them!
Poison Elvis and Kaino are nowhere to be seen, and I don't know if the two of them are dead or alive now.
"Oh no, I'll be here for a while, and Gran Sen has had such a big change!"
Looking at the dense minotaurs, cat demons and goblins in front of him.
Rimuru also felt a little difficult.
Celia even covered her mouth to prevent herself from screaming.
"Sauta ......"
Selia and Sauta are old acquaintances.
It must be very sad to see your friends like those monsters.
"You retreat one after another, leave it to me here!"
Celia nodded, then ducked behind the grass.
Rimuru swaggered up and was directly exposed to the monsters.
"Hey! Sauta, what the hell is going on with you! ”
"Rimuru...... Run...... Run ......"
"Roar!!
When he saw Rimuru, there was a flash of clarity in Sauta's eyes.
But soon, what little consciousness he had left was consumed by madness.
I saw him roar angrily, leading many monsters and rushing up directly.
In this regard, Rimuru also rushed forward against the wave of monsters.
Except that the numbers are a bit tricky.
These monsters, in his opinion, are not worth mentioning at all.
In this way, it took a few minutes for Rimuru himself to be intact, and nearly a hundred monsters were all killed.
This made Selia, who was hiding behind, open her mouth wide and could even stuff a light bulb into it.
At this time, Rimuru stepped on the other horn of Sauta's head with one foot and used his ability to restrain him.
"It's the power of time and space, can it be said that this power can make people crazy?
But I don't have anything, do you mean I'm special? This shouldn't be! ”
Although Rimuru was a little confused, he tried to see if he could take back the power of time and space in Sauta's body.
But unfortunately, he simply couldn't do it.
These powers of time and space, once forcibly pulled out of the body, Sauta will die instantly.
That is, Sauta is hopeless......
"Miss Rimuru, I know of a purification circle, maybe it works!"
