Volume 1 Against the Current, Chapter 13 Beauty and blood fly together
When Koichiro and Lulu arrived at the place where the boxer was picked, there was no figure of Lilith, only black humanoid material lying on the ground.
Lulu, who was in the distance, saw the black mass as if she already knew what was going on, and reflexively covered her eyes with her hands, "There is sand in your eyes." β
'Where is the sand when there is no wind?' β
"These are the dead boxers?" Hanichiro, who didn't know why, walked in and took a look, and almost couldn't hold back his vomit.
The blood on the corpse seemed to have been drained, leaving only a piece of skin wrapped in flesh that exuded bloody gas, and the boxer's face twisted into a ball in pain was enough to see that he had undergone extremely ferocious torture, and the unrecognized corpse covered with an unknown substance turned out to be a dense long-tailed night clam butterfly.
The surprised Koichiro seemed to be able to feel the countless thin black wings in front of him, offering the rhythm of the requiem for the dead flesh, but he avoided the fingers that Koichiro wanted to touch.
Beneath the beauty is the offering of flesh and blood. β
The dense long-tailed night clam butterflies gnawed quickly, and for nearly two minutes, only the head of the assassinated boxer's corpse was left uneaten, and only the blood stains on the ground were about to dry up.
The long-tailed night clam butterflies flew away from the few corpses left, and then gathered together and flew into the forest on the side.
Koichiro thought of Lilith, 'Daredevil, the true body of the witch?' β
'Is she hurt?' Is it in the forest? β
Five minutes before the end of the mission, Ashley's bone dragon was still hidden in the sky and hovering, and it was about to respond, but Lilith was nowhere to be seen.
Koichiro glanced at the last remaining head on the ground, making sure that Richard's team of boxers had all been eliminated by Lilith.
'The work of covering up incriminating evidence is also necessary. β
He kicked the sucked heads from the ground into the dark forest one by one, making it fertilizer for the forest, so as not to frighten the civilians passing by.
"Lulu, you hide here, if I can't come back by then, you go straight back to Klem Town."
"Do you want to go back by yourself?"
"Leave me alone, you can go back safely with Ashley."
After instructing Lulu, Koichiro told Lulu to hide in the bushes on the side, her black hood was not easy to find at night.
"Then Lord Ernest be careful."
Lulu waved at Koichiro, and then obediently ducked into the bushes.
ββββββββββββββ
Ignoring this, Koichiro hurriedly followed the direction of the long-tailed night clam butterfly and went to the dark forest.
However, as soon as he stepped into the forest, Koichiro was distressed by the darkness of his vision.
'It's pitch black in front of you, how can you follow the trail of the long-tailed night clam butterfly?' β
Just as he thought this, the mysterious prophecy item in his pocket began to glow again, albeit with a negligible light source.
'Is this the road?' β
Although Koichiro couldn't see the tracks of the black long-tailed night clam butterfly flying by, he inexplicably had a strong premonition and firmly guided him deeper into the forest.
There are three minutes left before the scheduled end time of the mission.
'Gotta find Lilith!' β
Hangichiro was a little anxious and couldn't help but run in.
At this time, he found that even if he could not see the road under his feet, he could clearly perceive where there would be broken branches to avoid, and where the path would be uneven.
'Huh? My perception is clearer? β
'Running wildly in the dark with your eyes closed, this prophetic ability is more like gaining the ultrasonic ability of a bat! Koichiro laughed at his funny thoughts.
With a strong premonition, Koichiro finds the traces of Lilith hidden in the forest.
"God, this is the prototype of Lilith?"
Koichiro looked at a humanoid cocoon in front of him that was slightly shorter than himself.
Although he has seen a lot of strange things from other worlds in the past few days, this is the first time he has seen a humanoid cocoon.
Koichiro had just come up with the idea of splitting the cocoon with a sword and pulling Lilith out of it, and then he had a strong premonition that it was inappropriate.
So, Koichiro stood still some distance away from the cocoon, silently watching the long-tailed night clam butterflies that kept flying back converge around the cocoon.
After a while, the long-tailed army clam butterfly gathered almost entirely and climbed up to the outside of the humanoid cocoon, and then slowly weaved into Lilith's neck, arms, legs, waist, and abdomen...... Then it gradually converged on Lilith's usual appearance.
But this is not Lilith, just Lilith's doppelganger, after all the long-tailed night clam butterflies converge, the humanoid cocoon turns into a dark gray butterfly shadow, and then the butterfly shadow disappears into the wind.
At this time, as if attracted by something, Koichiro looked up at the shade of the tree above him.
"Huh-" A silver flying fan was thrown down from the shade of the tree overhead, and the sharp blade reflected the silver knife light against the background of the moonlight.
"Qiangβ" The sound of the iron sword colliding with the blade of the fan.
"I'll go." With a shout, Hangichiro blocked the sudden attack with his sword for a second, and then quickly lowered his head and stopped looking at the figure in the shade of the tree.
'Allies are going to be assassinated? β
"What do you see? Look again at gouging out your eyes. Lilith's voice came from the treetops.
"I didn't see anything." Koichiro replied honestly.
'When an elegant lady changes clothes, closing your eyes is the basic quality! β
Because after the butterfly shadow disappeared, the real humanoid Lilith opened her eyes, Lilith's ability is to hide her own breath, and then use the woven humanoid cocoon to conjure thousands of long-tailed night clam butterflies to attack.
However, Lilith who unlocks the ability is insignificant, so she must act in a hidden place.
At this time, Lilith silently put on her robe and repinned the silver fan-shaped hairpin to the bun that she pulled haphazardly.
ββββββββββββ
"It's Ashley's time to answer."
Lilith glanced at Koichiro with an unkind face, as if she was still angry about the little episode just now, but angry to angry, she still grabbed Koichiro's wrist.
"Huh?"
"Get here!"
When the time comes, let's think of another way back. β
"Follow me......" Before Koichiro could finish speaking, he was grabbed by Lilith, who had generated dark skeleton butterfly wings behind him, and was dragged away from the dark forest at a speed of 300 miles.
"Whewβββ" the sound of trees swaying? No, it's so fast that even the leaves don't move.
In an instant, Lilith was at the entrance to the forest.
'It's okay to go back to the city with this F key. That's all Koichiro feels.
Before the time for a gust of wind to blow, Lilith stood in front of Lulu with his hair in a messy chicken nest.
Poor Lord Ernest was so dizzy that his eyes were out of focus, and it took him a while to recover.
"You have the speed, you don't need to rush to rush Ashley's bone dragon back to the blood oath, right?" Koichiro said.
Actually, what he didn't know was that it was because Lilith's flight was just a short sprint, and the use of the F key required a cooldown.
Then......
