Chapter 9 Rest at Night

Before you know it, it's nightfall. Junia and his knights stayed overnight in the ruined village. There was no threat here, and the biggest threat was now nothing more than a corpse, lying there quietly. The reason for staying in this place where there was no longer any threat and nothing they were looking for was because it was not too early to confirm the situation in the village, and even if they had the means of lighting, it was not a good choice to travel at night, and there was nothing urgent to do. Of course, this is only one of the reasons, and Junia, who made this decision, probably has more reasons to stay.

The knights were scattered in twos and threes, some of them stayed to rest by the campfire, and some of them were on the periphery of the procession, guarding the outside. Jessica sat down on the edge of the campfire, took a sip of water, and poured it over her head. It's a comfortable late spring time, and the temperature isn't too high, but she still needs a little water to cool herself down. The well in the village was destroyed, but at least the water source was not contaminated, which made it much easier for her and others to get water...... She doesn't need to try spells to create water sources.

"This is the fourth village to be destroyed. The strong man sat across from her, fiddling with his heavy hammer. His blunt weapon doesn't need to be polished to be lethal, but his hammer, which has been polished to a smooth and beautiful appearance, has this carved pattern on it, whether it is the handle or the iron itself, which needs to be carefully cared for, otherwise the power of his hammer will be discounted.

The strong man's name is Gad, and like the female knights, they are both powerful and high-profile objects. A strong man who looked like a middle-aged man was actually only in his twenties, about the same as a female knight, and a little younger than Junia. Whether it is him or Jessica, now, they are Junia's subordinates, and the two of them follow Junia with a sense of glory. "The scope of the disaster has expanded, but we have not yet figured out why this is happening. Gad continued, "If this continues, the little lords of those places will have a headache. In some villages, the villagers have disappeared along with them, but there are also many refugees who are spreading around, which is not an easy target for them to deal with. ”

"That's what they need to manage and be responsible for, and if they only complain, they don't qualify to be in power. "They just feel troubled, but for these poor people, it's the cost of their lives, or the pain of losing their families and homes." It's just to find another place to open up the wasteland and survive again. ”

Jessica has her own unique sensibilities, which no other knight has. She wasn't a pure knight, and her status as a woman made her completely different from other old-fashioned knights. She used to be very proud of her special identity, but what happened today made her feel that this special thing was not too good.

Gad didn't continue the conversation, but turned to Jessica herself, "You don't seem to be in a good state today, I saw you talking to that girl, and you didn't look good after that, what the hell happened." ”

Jessica shook her head, "That's not a girl, if you judge her by her appearance, you'll be led." My advice is, no matter what, don't have the idea of being alone and talking privately with her...... And the captain will not be happy either. ”

Gade was a little confused by Jessica's words. Jesse wiped her long hair and slowly combed it with the comb she had with her, she glanced at Gad, "But a simple person like you probably won't have any effect." She wasn't actually saying a good thing, she was laughing at Gad's simplicity, and there wouldn't be any gaps in that head for people to take advantage of. But Gad was right, she couldn't be said to be in a good situation today—after talking to Lulunaka. Lulunaka's words never dissipated in her heart. Those words are not something that can be said by any person, those ancient and mysterious places, few people know about them now, and she can know these things because of some wonderful karma, and because of this, she has become like this now, and follows Junia side.

As for Lulunaka's time when she said that she was glad not to kill her, although her voice and appearance did not change, Jessica still felt a chill in her heart. If she's really a disgusting and terrible Devourer...... She couldn't imagine it.

Jessica and Gad were by the campfire that their knights had prepared, and on the other side, beside the big spider, there was also a light and a noticeable movement. It is a peaceful and quiet place over there, but as for this side, it is completely different, and the situation here makes the knights a little afraid to approach. On the other side, the scene can be said to have become a little "dirty": the big spider that fell, most of the body was dismembered, and it was no longer visible to the original. And the process of dismantling it is not very clean...... To make it clearer, a large number of disgusting and slimy organs have been pulled out of its body, and the green blood has turned into small streams that spread around, but fortunately there is no water source here, otherwise the water source will be undrinkable for a while.

Lulunaka stood on the sidelines, holding a broad-bladed knife that looked like she was holding a kitchen knife. She also had all sorts of tools at her feet, such as saws, hammers, and crowbars. The sight of the tools being stained with disgusting liquid and scattered around was already uncomfortable, even if it was a monstrous monster that had been disassembled. And the most mentally uncomfortable thing is probably that Luluna Ka has not stopped humming a minor tune when she is decomposing. No matter how you look at it, such a picture can only be disturbing.

Most of the spider's body had been disassembled, and the abdomen, which looked like it was filled with serous juice, would not have been so reckless as Lulunaka to puncture, but it had been cut off and pulled aside to prevent it from being affected. As for the heavy work, it was naturally done by Zhendina.

Zhendina was by Lulunaka's side, working like an apprentice, her face was already crawling with tiredness, but the work seemed to never end, and she didn't even have a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.

Gendina struggled at her job, and Junia, standing behind Lulunaka, had been for some time.

"Is there anything wrong with coming to me at this time?" Lulunaka spoke first, but didn't turn to face Junia, "Thank you a lot for not interfering with my work, if I had changed to another group, I probably wouldn't have been able to get the materials so smoothly." ”

"There have been several incidents of villages being destroyed in the area. Junia said to Lulunaka, "They were all destroyed by monsters that came out of the ground, something that hadn't happened before...... Do you know something?"
