Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Mutated Beast?
It's been a week since I arrived in Yae Village, and two days ago, Destiny's exploration team discovered the signal sent by Otto, and after confirming Otto's identity, they returned with Otto's letter. It seems that they don't know about Otto's private outing, maybe it is the Valkyrie team who has just completed the mission and is about to return home.
"Do you know if you can catch up" Otto couldn't help but worry about whether his news could be delivered, and the sacrifice was only 3 months away.
Otto is now drinking tea in his recently built wooden hut, and the Japanese-style cabin has to be said to have a special flavor. At this moment, Otto was sitting on the steps in front of the small courtyard.
A lot of things happened this week, one of which is that Karen is finally able to act, and here I have to sigh that the Valkyrie's physique is strong, although the newly sewn threads cannot be removed yet, but this does not affect Kalian's daily activities. The second is that those blacksmiths have achieved a small success under the leadership of Changguang. The third is that Yae Sakura has been in a bad mood lately, and every time she sees Otto, she hides away as if she has seen a creditor.
"Big brother is not good" A childish child's voice came into Otto's ears, and then he saw a little girl break in front of him.
Because the courtyard was not fenced, the little girl easily got to Otto.
"What's wrong," Otto asked, looking at the panting voice in front of him.
"Sister, sister went out to collect medicine and met a beast. She told me to run back first............" The little girl was out of breath, but she barely finished speaking.
"Where is the shrine maiden in the village?" Otto's words were obviously Yae Sakura.
"I don't know where the shrine maiden sister is, I can't find her," Otoko hurriedly replied.
"Big brother, aren't you very good? Hurry up and save my sister! ”
"Ah, trouble. You guys are okay, what are the two little girls doing in the forest? Otto thought to himself, and reluctantly stood up.
Because Karen has not fully recovered from her injuries, she is currently recuperating inside. Not wanting the little girl to disturb Kalen, Otto decided to make the trip.
He took his gear out of the corner of the living room, but in the end Otto only brought the Thunder Knife. As for the spear, it was still too heavy for him without a suit.
"In which direction?" Ready, Otto asked Otoko beside him.
"Over there~" The little girl raised her hand and pointed in a direction.
Otto, who had gained his bearing, moved, and he was now moving much faster than before.
"It seems that the exercise of the past few weeks is still a little useful, fortunately there is no baldness," Otto thought to himself.
It didn't take long for Otto to arrive at his destination. According to the little girl's account, her sister was hiding in a tree hole at the moment.
“!” Otto jerked behind him, sensing that something was rapidly approaching.
"Who is it? This movement speed! So fast! With a sigh of emotion, Otto then held his twin guns in his hands, ready to fight at any time.
It didn't take long for the perceived fast-approaching object to appear in front of you. Looking at the crimson figure that rushed from the end of his sight, Otto couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Yae Sakura, who had arrived from a distance, naturally noticed Otto, and she pursed her lips as if she was running away from something, but eventually fell in front of Otto.
Looking at the Yae cherry blossoms jumping from the tree, Otto was a little speechless. What's going on with this Hokage× sense of déjà vu, will anyone move around the tree well?
"Where's the tears?" Yae Sakura, who had landed, asked Otto, and then looked around.
(I don't feel like I really know how to name it)
"I don't know, I'm just here," Otto, who was also searching around, took the time to reply.
"I heard from the little girl that her sister was hiding in a tree hole," Otto told Yae Sakura the information.
"Tree holes? Follow me" The situation was urgent, Yae Sakura greeted and quickly moved towards the target. At full speed, she didn't care if Otto could keep up
"......" looked at the back that was getting farther and farther away from him, and Otto once again felt his weakness.
—————— Secret Technique: Scene Transition Dafa————————
The little girl hiding in the hollow of the tree was curled up, and there were still tears in the corners of her eyes. Although she mustered up the courage to let her sister escape first, it was too early for her to face the beast alone at the age of 8.
She was fortunate not to be caught up by the beast, and as promised, she hid in the hole in the tree where she had been playing hide and seek.
Obviously, this forest was safe before...... The tears were a little empty, and I couldn't help my thoughts drifting.
The sound of the branch being trampled on reached the ears of the tearful man, and she hurriedly covered her mouth for fear of making a little noise.
The location of the tree hole is still very hidden, and the little girl hiding in it has seen the huge canine beast walking in front of her eyes more than once
When the canine beast passed by the tree hole again, it did not leave, but stopped. It stared with its strange red eyes, and the stench from its mouth continued to stimulate the little girl's young and fragile mind.
"Roar~" seemed to be tired of playing, the beast raised its head, its mouth seemed to have flames beating, and the surface of its body also lit up with a strange red light.
"Help!" Frightened tears let out exclamations, startling the birds.
As the flames were about to fall, Tears saw a fleeting crimson voice.
"Twinkle ——————"
“…………”
Yae Sakura, who arrived quickly, performed an incredibly powerful sword drawing technique, and the distance of several meters was crossed in an instant.
The crimson blade of the blade drew a straight red light in the air, like scattered cherry blossom petals.
When Otto arrived, he saw this scene.
The giant Honkaimon moved with its head tilted up, and behind it stood Yaezakura, which also had its back to it.
The pulled out "Tanzakura" made a half-arc in the air, and then the knife was sheathed. With a "click" sound, a blood mist shot out from the Honkai Beast behind it, and there was a long knife mark on its side.
The little girl crying "Sister Shrine Maiden" pounced on Yae Sakura, and although she was usually very mature, she was still a child after all.
"Good girl, the tears have grown" gently took the little girl into her arms, and Yae Sakura showed a gentle expression.
"Get out of the way," Otto's angry voice came to the ears of the two.
Yae Sakura quickly raised her head, only to see that the beast that had fallen to the ground actually stood up, and the wound that had been left on its side was also recovering at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"What the hell is going on" Before Yae Sakura could finish sighing, blazing flames erupted from the mouth of the Honkai Beast.
"It's stupid," Otto raised the horn in his hand and switched it to a cannon type. Then a shot was fired at the path of the flames.
A blue-purple current shot out of the barrel, blocking the blazing flame from an oblique angle.
Flame is different from ice cubes in that it is invisible. Therefore, the bullets fired by the gun-shaped ghost horns cannot hinder it.
(It's a round pit, there are gun types and cannon types, of course, the ordinary ones are only gun types, and the Heavenly Fire Holy Cut also has a sword type)
Yae Sakura, who had escaped the flames, moved to Otto's side, and she put the little girl in her arms down and motioned for her to quickly duck to the side.
"Is this what you call Honkaimon?" Looking at the little girl who was far away, Yae Sakura asked Otto.
"Ah, and Honkai can react......"
Looking at the pocket watch in his hand, Otto frowned.
"Hey~ When did the emperor become a cabbage on the side of the road."
