Chapter 382: Critical Situation
A civilian building area surrounded by stone walls.
Han Dong had fled with a seriously wounded Demps on his back.
Exposed to direct sunlight from the front of Adelaide. Gravel] Kneeling on one knee and slowly recovering from the pain.
In the area of his face, several stone eyeballs have been completely burned.
Streams of foul-smelling pus drained from the gaps in the eyeballs.
Cracking sound!
Many of the stones' eyeballs fell off, revealing a face made of flesh threads, and a little red flesh was completely charred.
Soichiro Kaneshima's flashlight.
It's not just as simple as shining a bright light, but when it is aimed at ordinary strange stories, in addition to vaporizing the physical body, it will also suck all the souls of strange stories into it.
The same was true of the irradiation just now, which almost pulled Adelaide's soul out......
The dumplings that reached his mouth were gone, and he was burned and hurt his mouth, and the demon was naturally furious.
Adelaide takes out all her anger on the civilians living in the current building.
Wriggling stones moved around each householder's home, forcibly burrowing into their flesh and forcibly gaining the initiative.
"The next time we meet, I won't think about taking them alive...... Take the body back directly. β
β¦β¦β¦β¦

The team members have collected the cement delivery points in charge of different organizations, and all of them have gathered here.
When Han Dong returned with a seriously injured Demps.
The only person in the team who can be considered a medical staff is Mia.
What needs to be done here is to treat the injury as urgently as possible and not to worsen as much as possible...... Once the situation is stabilized, consider transferring Demps to the first aid station on the second floor of the Holy City.
"What are these!?"
Lifting his coat, he saw a large amount of small rubble tearing at Demps's inner soft armor......
"Demonic Attributes......"
"You've encountered [aliens]?!"
"We'll talk about it later, let's see what happened to Demps first......"
The Wino Knight on the side aimed directly at the gravel area and performed a small-scale holy light spell...... In an instant, the group of pebbles lost their vitality and fell to the ground one after another.
Mia then took over the treatment.
When carefully removing Demps' lined soft armor.
Exposed was a scarred body...... It is completely inconsistent with the appearance of Demps's white and tender British brother.
All kinds of burning, cutting, and even soldering iron imprints on the flesh.
These are all permanent traumatic scars that Demps had previously left on his body.
After a brief examination, Mia said with a solemn face: "The lower rib is completely broken, the kidney is broken, and there is severe internal bleeding." But ......"
"But what?"
"It's strange that the average person's words may have been dying for a long time...... But Temples' vitality shows no signs of diminishing. β
Mia has started grinding the ointment at the same time.
When the highly effective treatment ointment is evenly applied to the surface of Temple's flesh...... Eerie imagination happens.
Demps's skin was already 'eating', absorbing the ointment that had just come into contact with the skin in an instant.
At the same time, his wounds began to heal at an extremely rapid rate.
Han Dong saw something and immediately said, "Mia...... Pour all the ointment on the injured part. β
"Okay."
Sure enough.
In a short period of time, all the ointment was 'eaten' by Demps's body.
Less than five minutes.
Demps reopened his eyes and sat up abruptly...... The left hand ignites the fire element, and the right hand condenses the aura of ice, and it seems that he is still fighting the [Alien Demon].
"Huh? Did you escape...... I was so careless that I was attracted by the stone wall. β
Demps looked completely uneventful and hurriedly put on his coat.
All that remained was the surprised faces of his teammates.
"Demps, your flesh?"
ββ¦β¦ Spending three hours a day soaking in the Pool of Demonic Potion produces an adaptive effect that my body absorbs automatically. β
Demps looked normal, not caring at all about the serious injury just now.
"By the way, have you collected the 'cement delivery point'?"
The topic was immediately shifted, and at Temples's suggestion, the points were grouped together on a map.
On the premise of knowing that cement is used for 'rebuilding walls', short straight lines are connected to the marked nearby points.
Slowly......
A mark that felt familiar to everyone was depicted on the map.
"It's!"
The drawings on the map almost exactly match the imprints on the surface of the coin.
"If all the stone walls are rebuilt, some kind of super-large-scale unknown formation will be activated...... The consequences are unimaginable. β
"We can't handle this matter, we must report it immediately!"
When the Wino Knights learned the truth, they no longer considered their own interests, and such a large-scale conspiracy had to be handled by the Knights.
An extra second of delay was extremely risky, and Wino turned around to leave.
"Wait!"
As soon as Han Dong stretched out his hand, he pulled Wino back.
"What are you doing? This matter is designed to be a basic security issue in the Holy City. Stop thinking about self-interest, there's no time to waste. Wino sees Han Dong's actions as a manifestation of his own selfish desires.
Han Dong patiently explained:
"Sister Wino.
When I took over the "Secret Stone Incident", I asked Mr. Black and White...... The attitude of the sir is that we can handle it but need to be careful.
Mr. Black and White's astrology must also be very clear about what is currently happening in the civilian area.
You know what I mean, right?
And...... I'm not stopping you from reporting it, but there are a few things that haven't been fully explained. β
Wino nodded, "You say." β
"There's one thing I can't understand.
Why wasn't there any knight patrolling the area where I had the [Alien] encounter with Demps just now? β
Wino immediately shook his head, "Impossible! The Secret Stone Event is officially notified to the Knights, and if you can kill the invading demons, you can get a lot of rewards and increase your reputation.
Knights who have not been assigned to work in the near future should bring their own squires and go to the civilian area to patrol...... There should be no 'missing' situation. β
"When we encounter a demon, they activate the enchantment.
Wouldn't the official knight not be able to detect the "enchantment" that covers an area of at least a thousand square meters? Also, we stayed inside the barrier for at least five minutes, and there was a lot of movement during the battle.
Later, I pulled it out and ran three streets with Demps on my shoulder, completely missing a knight patrolling the neighborhood. β
Wino looked shocked, "You mean to ...... Is there someone in the Holy City mobilizing all this? β
"I'm afraid that this 'adult' who can control the patrols of the Knights is also the inner ghost who led the secret invasion of the alien demons through the abandoned sewers...... Mr. Black and White probably wants to use this incident to find out who this ghost behind the scenes is, right?
Or Mr. Black and White already knows who it is, but the status and identity of the other party must be shaken by reasonable and strong enough evidence. β
"So...... I suggest that Abel report directly to Commander Kemon.
In this way, problems in the middle can be avoided. β
