Chapter 319: The Road to Survival (Part II)
Only after loss will people be cherished.
At this moment, Sonia realized this very deeply, if it was the same as before, she would never be able to accept the hard wooden bed in front of her. She and Lillian were supposed to sleep in that soft, fragrant, warm feathered bedding and comfortable bed. Instead of leaning on the hard wooden bed like now, with a straw mat full of weeds underneath, covered with a thin quilt that was clean but still smelled unpleasant, it was changed in normal times, Sonia probably wouldn't even look at it, but now...............
Thinking of this, Sonia glanced at Lilian, who was already happily asleep beside her, she didn't seem to mind at all, and soon fell asleep after climbing into bed. It's no wonder that the wind and sleeping in the open in the past few days must have been uncomfortable for Lilian, Sonia herself remembers that on several occasions, Lilian was awakened by the sound of a wolf howling in the distance, and looked left and right with her eyes wide open in horror. Another time she even clutched Sonya's clothes tightly in a dream, asking her not to leave her......... It was the first time Sonia had seen Lillian look like that.
However, Sonia knew that things were not so simple.
At supper, she had made a special observation of the owner of the house, and the old man and the child were fine, but the young man's gaze at them both was by no means unusual, full of rather intense emotion. Sonia could feel that it was not the man's instinctive sight of the fire of desire burning with a woman, but more like the eyes of himself and others as something precious and valuable. If Sonia had been right, the Council of Light had already wanted them, and it was likely that the man had seen the notice about him. If that's the case, then you won't be able to relax here. Thinking of this, Sonia glanced at Lilian beside her again. If the situation is really not good. Then leave here before dawn, when everyone has not woken up. Otherwise, I don't know what will happen to the road.
Thinking of this, Sonia closed her eyes, but unlike Lillian, Sonia did not fall asleep. Although she was resting, Sonya's spirit was sensing the situation around the house. I don't know if it's because of the journey in the past few days, Sonia feels that her swordsmanship strength, which has reached a bottleneck, is gradually increasing. Originally, she didn't care about her swordsmanship, and as a nobleman, Sonia didn't ask for her strong swordsmanship strength, as long as she could ensure that she didn't just stand there and shout like a vase when she encountered an accident. Moreover, Sonya's own swordsmanship talent is not high, so after feeling that she had no way to improve, she did not waste time on it. It's just that I didn't expect to move forward in the mountains and forests these days. The battle with those beasts and monsters actually increased his strength a lot again, and now Sonya's own swordsmanship level may have already surpassed the elite middle level and reached the level of the elite peak. Psychic induction like this is not a problem for her. Not to mention that the people in this village are just some rudimentary militia, and it is impossible to avoid Sonya's mental detection, even if those people want to do something...............
"Huh?"
Sonia opened her eyes.
Under the white moonlight. The village is still quiet. But Sonia had sensed it, in the quiet of the night. Some people are slowly gathering towards the hut they are in, and at this moment, there are also people in the house who are getting up——— it seems that they are planning to do it while they and the others are sleeping?
There is no time left.
"Leigh."
Sonia nudged Lilian, and Lilian opened her eyes vaguely and looked at Sonia beside her, opening her mouth to say something. But at this moment, Sonia suddenly reached out and covered her mouth. This sudden scene suddenly woke up Lilian, who was still a little dazed, and she looked at Sonia with wide eyes, and Sonia made a quiet gesture. After reading Sonya's gestures. Lillian nodded. Then, Sonia let go of her right hand, then frowned and whispered in Lilian's ear.
"We're leaving, these people want to get us."
“…………!?”
Although she had been mentally prepared, Lilian's eyes widened in surprise when she heard Sonya's words, and she couldn't believe what she had heard. How is this possible? Didn't you just cure the injuries of the children of this family? How can they do that?
But now was not the time to think about these issues, and soon, Lillian packed her bags and crept to the door led by Sonya. Although it sounded incredibly quiet outside, Sonia could sense that a man was quietly walking towards the house where she was. She pulled Lilian behind her, then clenched her sword in her right hand.
One step, two steps, three steps.
The man had already walked to the door, he reached out his hand, quietly pushed the door open, and .........
"Knock !!"
The long sword in Sonya's hand and the sheath stabbed forward so quickly that it hit the man's neck hard, only to see the sturdy man fall backwards to the ground without saying a word. And the short knife in his hand also fell to the ground, making a piercing and crisp sound.
"Bell!"
With this sound, I saw that the originally dark villages and towns suddenly burst into flames, and seeing these fires, Sonya's heart sank, although she already knew that it was very likely that this village would send people to catch them, but she didn't expect that there would be so many people at all! If only her psychic abilities could have been stronger............ But it was useless to talk about it now, and thinking of this, Sonia could only grasp the long sword in her hand, pull Lilian and leave the house quickly.
"Whew!!"
As soon as the two of them left the house, Sonia saw dozens of arrows flying towards her, and if she were an ordinary person, she would probably not be able to dodge these attacks. But Sonia waved her right hand, and soon, a series of fires flashed. I saw that those arrows were burned to ashes out of thin air, and disappeared completely.
"Catch them!!"
Seeing the figures of Sonia and Lillian, one of the leading men shouted angrily. Seeing this scene, Sonya's face sank. At this moment, there were nearly a hundred militiamen beside them, armed with long swords and bows and arrows. was surrounding the two of them, and seeing this scene, Sonia was also panicked. If it was just a hundred militiamen, then she didn't care about it, but it was another matter to get out of safety with Lily. And what worries Sonia even more is that she obviously didn't feel that there were so many people outside the house just now, although she vaguely felt that there were indeed people, but there weren't so many, otherwise. Sonia would have acted sooner rather than wait until now.
Is this just a delusion caused by exhaustion and exertion, or is there something else?
But now is not the time to think about that.
"Lillian, hide behind me, come with me, we're going to break out!"
A flash of fire.
Although the militia looked mighty, they couldn't help but retreat in front of Sonya's swordsmanship. And Sonia didn't plan to kill them all. Although she has no swordsmanship, Sonia knows it well. In case you accidentally kill a few people, it is natural to be able to scare them away. But if she accidentally provoked the ferocity of these militiamen, and at that time, two fists would be invincible, and Sonia could not guarantee that she would be able to protect Lilian. After all, although Lillian knows a few spiritual skills, she is not a regular spirit master, and now Lilian only uses her talent as a creation dragon soul to perform those spiritual skills that can heal wounds. Like Lijie, who directly put a protective shield on herself as soon as she started fighting, Lilian would not do it at all.
"Catch them, catch them alive!!"
Perhaps intimidated by Sonya's swordsmanship, or bound by orders, these militiamen did not blindly resist Sonya's bright red sword. But he retreated left and right in a panic. In the face of the scene in front of her, Sonia did not hesitate, she flipped her wrist, and soon, a bright red flame burst out from the ground like a giant snake, raised her head, and the whistling air flow mixed with the high temperature forced towards everyone. When had the country farmer seen such a scene, when he saw the fiery snake in front of him, he immediately screamed and parted to both sides, and Sonia took advantage of this opportunity to grab Lillian and quickly ran out of the crowd.
As long as you can get out of here and hide in the wilderness forest...............
"Boom!!"
Not good!!
Hearing the sound of arrows breaking through the air behind her, Sonia was shocked, she hurriedly turned her head, and the long sword in her hand swung out again, and soon, with the explosion of flames, those arrows were quickly and completely devoured. But at this time, Sonia found that several militiamen had actually bypassed the fire ring and rushed towards Lilian beside her.
"Your Majesty!"
In a hurry, Sonia couldn't hide anything anymore, she hurriedly turned around, trying to block the militia, but ...............
"Poof."
What is it?
For a moment, Sonia looked at the glowing blade on her chest, and didn't seem to react to what was happening. But soon, she quickly understood what was happening, Lilian in front of her was opening her eyes wide, opening her mouth to call her name, but at this moment, Sonya, could not hear what she was shouting at all, her eyes gradually began to darken, her body began to become cold, and she didn't even have the strength to hold the weapon............ But...............
But......... Do you think I'm going to end up like this?
Without looking back, Sonia clenched the bright red long sword in her hand, and the next moment, the incomparable flames erupted violently, and the originally sharp and powerful magic weapon was completely destroyed at this moment, turning into an almost white flame and rushing behind the girl. Soon, a terrible scream rang out, and the long sword that pierced the girl's chest was quickly withdrawn, and Sonya's body swayed forward and fell, and then fell heavily to the ground.
What a pity............ Master............ Looks like that's all I have to say...............
Looking at Lilian, who was crying and lunging at her, Sonia twitched the corners of her mouth.
Then, her world was plunged into darkness. (To be continued......)
