Chapter 988: Wu Fan's Universal Dialogue
"How's it going, Hillmanya, what information have you gathered?"
Blocked by Hillmanya's words, my little pitiful self-esteem did not allow me to continue to ask cheekily, so I could only point to the topic and ask.
"Yes, this bush is new, and there are some traces of the battle on it."
With that, Hillmanya carefully peeled open the jungle and crouched inside to take a closer look.
"To be sure, this is not left by the demonic beasts in the forest, and I found a special mark left by my clan nearby, which should be the traces of the second team that once fought here."
"That is, at least the enemy we hypothetize is indeed there, is that true?"
Although there was already a 99% certainty of this, there were at least 1% other possibilities, and Hillmanya's discovery this time completely sealed the 1% accident.
"You're right, Your Royal Highness, you can understand it that way." Hillmanya nodded.
"Good, follow the trails."
Knowing this fact, our hearts are all tight, and we feel sad from the bottom of our hearts, because if the 1% chance of an accident occurs, those missing elves may still survive, but if it is really a third-world enemy summoned by the crystal shard, I don't think the other party will be kind enough to stay alive, this is an inescapable fact.
But in other words, the other part of the psychology that has accepted the speculation of the death of all members is blazing, not afraid of how strong the enemy is, and the most afraid is that they don't even know whether the enemy exists, and after determining this, we can devote all our energy to search and revenge with peace of mind.
On the other hand, after she learned that the last trace of feasibility was wiped out, her expression was still cold, and it seemed that she should have accepted the fact of death a long time ago, and there was no longer a trace of luck, so even if she was completely sure now, her heart was not shaken at all, and I didn't know whether to be glad for it.
Led by Hilla, we followed the trail that only she could detect, and it didn't take long for us to stop.
"That's it." Hilmanya bit her lip and lowered her head.
ββ¦β¦β
When you get here, the traces are gone? Other words...... The last person only supported this place?
"The strength of the enemy...... Very strong. β
Jeluka, who was silently following behind, sighed in a low voice.
Even if we can't see these traces, we can judge some facts from the clues that we can perceive.
First of all, it's not far from the trigger point of the battle, and it's clear that while these bushes are growing at a crazy rate and can quickly cover up all traces, if there is too much fierce fighting, leaving more obvious traces of battle, it won't be able to cover it in three or two days.
That is to say, the battle is not fierce, and the elven warriors did not stay at one point to defend (if you stay in place, it should be easy to cause more obvious traces of battle), can we simulate and restore such a battlefield - the enemy instantly appeared and sneak attacked, taking away the lives of several fighters, and the rest of the warriors immediately judged that the enemy's strength was terrifying, so they fought and retreated, even if they could escape one, although a wise judgment was made, but because the difference in strength between the two sides was too big, So everyone didn't run far, but they were quickly caught up and killed by the enemy one by one.
Combined with the scattered but modest traces of battle found by Hillmanya, this possibility is the greatest.
Judging the strength of the enemy according to this is a work of experience and imagination, if it is replaced by yourself, in the most difficult and most favorable situation, can you do the same thing in such a short time, if you find that even if you are given the most favorable conditions, you still can't do it as easily as the enemy, then at least there is a 95% chance that the enemy's strength is much stronger than yours, it is better to fight the spirit and quickly request support to be safer.
Naturally, I won't be intimidated by the strength of the enemy that I sketched out in my head, and although I am reluctant to bring myself into the simulation of this kind of thing, if I really want to do it, the Hell Fighting Bear Transformation can do it, and it is faster, leaving fewer traces, and if I am in a good position, I can even kill instantly.
So, although the enemy's strength is terrifying, it has not exceeded my expected upper limit, so far, I am still quite confident, of course, it is not ruled out that the enemy has not done his best, so in order to accurately estimate the enemy's strength, we have to run the other three points, especially the last one, including the squadron leader, the fourth squad that disappeared together, this squad is the strongest, if we can get even a pitiful clue from them, We can also roughly give a conclusion about the strength of the enemy.
The search work is really an unexpected trouble, after sorting out these ideas, I scratched the back of my head, sighed, and let me out for a big fight. Do I have to collect clues to solve the mystery and break through the maze to meet the final boss like some games that make people yawn, or am I really a hot-blooded hardcore simple-minded type?
Coach, I want to open FC.
"There's no other clue, let's go to the next point."
After searching the neighborhood for a while, we didn't find any useful clues such as the corpses of the soldiers, and if you think about it, since the enemy is playing harassment tactics with you, of course it is impossible to leave the corpses behind, and we didn't take much chance, so forget it.
Led by Hillmanya, we set off to the second point, and along the way, I expanded my mental power to scout far away, hoping to be able to meet the dead mouse and find the enemy who was hiding, but unfortunately for the time being, my current luck of -254 points is still quite a long way from doing this, and besides, don't ask me who that -255 is, I don't want to answer (note: in the Dark game, the number of 255 is a cap).
The enemy didn't find it, but they found a lot of demonized monsters, and the third-world monsters who were afraid to curl up after perceiving the pseudo-realm aura emitted by the transformation of the moon wolf from a distance, they thought they were hiding well, but they didn't know that the mental power reconnaissance was not to mention their location, and even a few leg hairs on their thighs were "scanned".
At the beginning, the three of us would go down to clean up and recover the crystal fragments, but we were soon numbed by the endless stream of crystal fragment outbreaks, and the battle was okay, the combat power of the three pseudo-realm-level masters was placed here (although the maid of the yellow duan was actually an ornament, and she would not shoot until the critical moment), and there was no one who could fight, but the most troublesome thing was that after the war, we had to spend time searching for crystal fragments, and we don't have this spare now.
So after recovering three or four crystal fragments, as soon as we totaled, now is not the time to do such a thing, we began to ignore it, even if those demonized monsters who didn't know whether they were alive or dead didn't pay attention to the arrogant screams at their feet, and after solving the key enemies, there was time to go back and repair them.
The number of crystal fragments scattered in the Kurast area is staggering, and although I don't know exactly what the total number of scattered in the other four areas is, it is certain that there are definitely not as many as the Kurast area, or even half as much, because it is the largest and most densely populated area (after all, it is home to two large races, humans and elves)?
Along the way, there are more than a dozen crystal fragments that we have seen alone, not to mention other places, since Amludina contracted the defense line, these crystal fragments have no enemies, and the arrogance of the peeling forest is dΓΉ, it is estimated that it can be described in the subtle words of the demons dancing, but it's okay, let me explode as much as I want, try to break out, it's best to wait until the enemy in front of me is killed, all the crystal fragments have exploded, and when the time comes, I will be able to go home for the New Year.
However, it's okay over there in the Spider Forest, I don't know if Bidia and Dean have deployed it now, although a general mobilization has been made, but we don't plan to set off in the next two days, God knows if the hidden enemy will have a whim, run to the alliance to kill a few, or obediently hide in the defensive magic array of Kurast until I kill it.
Moreover, Akhara is much shorter than Yalandran, if that guy dares to wantonly kill the precious Alliance warriors who have reached the second world, it is difficult to guarantee that this old fox will not go crazy, and he will not be hot-headed for a while, and even do not hesitate to reveal some hidden power to kill Ling Chi.
Just as I was thinking about these things that I didn't have, Hillmanya had already led us to the second target, according to the custom, it was still Hillmanya who searched for traces, and Jeluka was in charge of protection, and I was going to wander around to see if I could find the enemy's breath.
It turned out to be a disappointment for us too, and even Hillmanya found some plausible traces of battle, and even she didn't dare to conclude that they must have been left behind by the missing elven warriors.
With a sense of loss, we came to the third target, this time the missing squad, a member of the third squadron attached to Hillmanya.
Sneaking a glance at Hillmanya's expression, she found that there was no change, but the more this happened, the more reassuring it became.
As is customary, I went around and walked back with a look of frustration that I had found nothing, and subconsciously looked up, only to suddenly realize that the moon had run out, and there was a distant or terrible beast roar in the distance, which set off the extraordinary silence and solemnity of this forest.
He was so busy that he didn't even notice that the time had turned to night, maybe it was because the moon wolf's mental power reconnaissance didn't need to rely on light.
You'll find out
When I showed such a stupid expression that it was already night, Jeluka couldn't help but roll her eyes weakly, she had seen a fool, but she had never seen such a fool, even the alternation of day and night could be ignored.
"What about Hillmanya, you can't be lazy and didn't keep up with her."
Turning the adventurer's titanium dog eyes, which could still see clearly even at night, I looked around and was shocked to find no trace of Hillmanya in my line of sight.
ββ¦β¦β
I don't know why, the lips of this yellow maid pouted very dissatisfied, what are you angry about, this guy, is it because I was too focused on work to notice that the night was coming and made her hungry?
"Kicked to death by ten horses, fool."
She muttered something in a low voice, which made me suddenly break out in a cold sweat, could it be that at this moment, I am already above the tenfold Duke of Beasts?
"Over there, in that grass, squatting down so I can't see it, His Royal Highness hurry up and use animal means to take her down."
Although he showed a blatant and angry attitude, this guy was quite dedicated to telling me Hillmanya's position.
"Oh, thanks, then again, when did I have the murderous beast method you call it?"
When I came back to my senses, I realized that there was something in Jeluka's words that I couldn't understand or agree with.
"Wantonly playing with the body and mind of the ** maid, but I suddenly don't realize that this is a very excessive thing, I don't know anything about it, I think I am still pure and kind, such a guy is the most hateful, Your Royal Highness, you say yes."
Jeroka said with a smile that seemed to shine beautifully in the dark night.
"Uh...... Indeed, the most terrifying thing is those natural guys who have done dangerous things but are unaware of it. β
Jelluka's words touched me a lot, and I remembered a lot of unbearable memories, such as her master Artoria, her master Artoria, and her master Artoria.
But the question is, what is she saying this for?
Touching our heads inexplicably, under the gaze of Jeruka's heart-chilling smile, we arrived at Hillmanya's location.
In the distance, a faint cry could be heard from the grass.
"That...... Do you have to go over? β
After a pause, I couldn't help but retreat, comparing my heart to my heart, at least when I was sad and crying, I wouldn't want idlers to come close to disturb me, let alone see my ugliness at this time.
"Isn't this the best time for His Royal Highness to make a move?"
Jeluka looked at me indifferently, ah, this stingy yellow maid must still be angry with those inexplicable angers just now.
"What the hell, I seem to be ...... to say"
"Don't say it, let's go quickly."
Before I could finish speaking, I was interrupted by Jeruka, who was unexpectedly pushed from behind.
The rustling of approaching footsteps immediately woke up Hilmaya, who was completely immersed in mournful weeping.
"Ha~~haha~~~, I'm sorry, Hillmanya, I didn't mean to bother you."
Glaring back at Jeluka, I explained with an embarrassed touch of my head.
"No, it's my willfulness that has delayed His Royal Highness's time, and it's me who should say sorry."
Hillmanya stood up and wiped away her tears before turning around and bowing to me with red eyes.
"It's okay, it's okay, by the way, Hillmanya, what's the catch?"
A little bit of hatred for my mouth that doesn't coax girls, I hurriedly changed the subject and asked.
Hillmanya gritted her teeth and lowered her face.
"No ......"
"Huh?" The sound was so low that I didn't hear it clearly for a while.
"No, not at all."
"......" I was silent.
"Abominable, abominable, abominable"
Drops of crystal tears slipped down the drooping face again.
"Not even a trace, even a tiny trace, has not been left behind, so wouldn't it be even Felisti...... Don't you even know where they died, can't you even leave them with a tombstone? Damn, if it weren't for someone like me as their captain, maybe it wouldn't be fine, damn it."
Slowly, from choking to hoarseness, Hillmanya slapped her face, and crystal tears splashed in the night sky with the powerful crisp sound, like shining stars.
There was a "snap", and a louder voice sounded, there is no doubt that this slap was made by me, and without mercy from my subordinates, I directly slapped Hillmanya and fell to the ground.
"Well, this slap was made by me for you, what you think now, what you look like now, the most sorry thing is not others, but yourself."
Looking at Hilmanya, who was lying on the ground, still holding back tears, tear-stained hair, and looking wolf-like, I shook my head helplessly and turned to leave.
"Let's set up camp nearby, think about it, and then hurry back, or the delicious dinner made by Jeluka will be cold."
"Even if it's a compliment on my craft, it doesn't do any good."
As they were busy erecting their tents and setting up camp, Jeluka said suddenly.
"Hey, don't eavesdrop on people, you bastard."
I expressed my helplessness about Jeluka's behavior, no way, who told me to forget her identity as the intelligence chief? It's strange that she doesn't come over with an ear for this kind of thing.
"Congratulations, Your Royal Highness, another girl has fallen under your clutches."
"......" is such a guy who confuses language, it's a pity that this yellow maid doesn't go to be a paparazzi.
"In that case, you can just say it to me, and if Hillanya hears it, be careful that I hold you for a night."
"Woo~~"
Obviously, my threat was so bold that Jeroka immediately haunted Sorrow, and having mastered her weakness, I was now able to give her a little bit of a pain once in a while.
"I say, you elven warriors really lack such a thing as being strong."
"Really? I can't argue with that. β
Jeluka, who had the spirit of impartial chivalry, sighed.
Compared to the adventurers of the Alliance, the elven warriors are indeed much more vulnerable, at least the Hilmanya in front of them, although I have said before that being strong is not necessarily a compliment for us warriors, but it is a necessary means to survive in battle.
"By the way, Your Royal Highness, there is one more thing I don't understand." Jeluka was now clearly trying to divert the topic that had left her depressed.
"What you just said to Hillmanya [I'm most sorry for not others, but yourself], I haven't been able to figure out what you mean."
"Oh, that's the sentence, the universal blood whip I learned from the book, I always think it will be very effective against the elves who like to drill the horns, so I tried to use it, in fact, I don't quite understand what it means, hum."
Jeroka: "......"
