What about people?

For a while, no one could speak, and everyone only felt a chill on their bodies.

Counting the time difference, at most, within a minute or two, forty-seven people disappeared silently. Even if it is forty-seven round root vegetables, it is not enough time to pull them out for a minute or two, not to mention people who can run and scream, and it also includes silver-level mages and bronze-level ordinary warriors, who want to make these people disappear without a trace in such a short time, the high-level mercenaries present asked themselves, no one can do it. No, I'm afraid even the Legendary-level powerhouses can't do it.

"Everybody is gathered here, and no one is allowed to move around. After a moment of silence, Shure said with a calm face, "Dark, you arrange for the mercenaries to take care of these people. ”

"Okay, but isn't it really good not to look for it?"

"Find, you don't need to look for it, you can't find it, heh, have we found the mutant spider mother?" Shul sighed and hesitated for a few seconds before making a decision, "Saf, start calculating. ”

"Huh?" the female swordsman was stunned, "What do you measure?"

"Get your equipment out and now start measuring the entrance, the entrance to the Atlas Projection. Shul said softly, "I need to determine the exact location of the entrance, I can do it." ”

"Otherworldly projection, there is an otherworldly projection entrance here?" Safu seemed to suddenly think of something, his face turned pale for a moment, and his voice trembled and said, "You mean, the weak point of space has been torn apart?

"You can do the math first. Shul knew what Saf was afraid of, but he didn't comfort him, he just said lightly, "Take me there as soon as you figure it out, and talk about it later." ”

"Oh......" Saf took out the equipment from her backpack one by one as if her soul had been withdrawn from her body, and began to measure it with a blank face, and her dejected state made people worry about whether she would miscalculate.

"Mia, be prepared. Shuer lowered his voice, not wanting too many people to hear it, "You also heard what you said just now, the otherworldly projection that was originally in a safe state and would not intersect with Pavatiga is likely to be opened because of the explosion just now, and the process of opening the door of the projection when it appeared, swallowed forty-seven people, and at the same time, it is estimated that there are also injured mutant spider mothers and seriously injured surviving spiders." ”

"That's why I said you have to be mentally prepared, the pension for the death of a worker is a trivial matter, and it won't be too much for you, but the loss of those seven experts is estimated to make it very difficult for you, and if you don't deal with it, you will be in trouble. ”

"It's not a real trouble, you come here to sign a life and death agreement, and you will bear the consequences of accidental death, but it will have a certain impact on your reputation. Mia still has the same expressionless face, her face and eyebrows are not wrinkled, but it can be seen that her mood is not happy, "Do you really think it's an otherworldly projection?"

"It's too early to say, wait for Saf's results. Shuer sighed, and secretly glanced back at the female swordsman with a little worry, the female swordsman had already put down the instrument and began to lie on the ground to write and draw, her face was paler than just now, not only her voice, but now even her hands were trembling. Shaking his head, Shuer retracted his gaze, "If it is true that the entrance of the otherworldly projection is torn open, it will be a good thing, and you don't have to worry about the problem of mutant spiders anymore." Once you've decided on the entrance, it's good to keep it closed to prevent others from entering. ”

No one asked what to do with the people who were swallowed up, and everyone understood Shuer's thoughts, which was that he had already regarded those people as attrition, so he began to think about dealing with what happened after their deaths. This is also normal, there are only two silver-level mages, with a dozen low-level mercenaries, and a large group of ordinary people to do a burden, unless the opportunity to immediately throw away those craftsmen and scholars who are ordinary people to escape, if you are lucky, you can survive some, otherwise it is a foregone conclusion, there is no possibility of sparing, the only thing that can be done now is to pray to the gods, hoping that the scholars can come out alive.

But Mia shook her head, although she didn't say anything more, but looking at her expression, she probably still had a hint of fantasy.

"I, I, I figured it out. Saph trembled like fallen leaves in the wind, and even the gurgling of her teeth could be heard, until Shul took her hand and the swordswoman reluctantly calmed down a little, stammering, "Indeed, indeed, Shur you think, think, think, think......"

"Okay, I see, calm down, you can't blame you. Shuer touched Saf's head very gently, and comforted him softly, "Okay, take us to the entrance, we must mark the location of the entrance first, so that everyone doesn't dare to move." ”

"Hmm. The swordswoman hung her head very meekly, let Shuer take her hand, and led everyone towards the excavation site, behind her, dozens of people followed in disbelief, talking to each other, although most of them did not know what was happening, but they all saw the ominous behavior of several leaders.

The distance was not very far, and it was not far enough to get out of the barracks area around a few houses, but before reaching the excavation site, it was less than a hundred meters in total, and a clearing was empty except for the blazing sun shining on the ground.

"Is this it?" Shure asked quietly.

"Yes. Biting her lip and nodding, Saf gently broke free from Shuer's hand holding her, pulled out her big sword and took a few steps forward, slowly drawing a five-meter diameter prototype on the yellow earth, "This should be the entrance, wait a minute, I'll test it again, don't make any more mistakes." ”

"No need to test, it should be about the same. That being said, Shul didn't stop Saf from stubbornly fiddling with the equipment, "Everyone, be careful, no one is allowed to approach this area until we say it's okay." Saf, I need to know more about the projection space. ”

"Inside is a circular space with a diameter of 500 kilometers, wait, here I will check, yes, 500 kilometers, the energy intensity is 3.7, it belongs to the medium energy world, 3.7? This formula is not wrong, is it still 3.2? I'll take a look......"

"Alright. Shul interrupted Saf's report with a straight face, and said sharply like never before, "I want the data right now, I want to check the report and slowly go to the side of the calculation, now report the calculated data, immediately." ”

"Yes, yes. The female swordsman shuddered, and the instruments and papers in her hands were almost thrown to the ground, and said cautiously, "The strength is three .seven, and the duration is twenty-eight days left." ”

"How long does the projection gate last?" Shul asked.

"Thirteen minutes to go. Saph timidly added, "This projection gate is a little special, it lasts for a long time, twenty-one minutes in total. ”

"Well, well done. He patted his head again, if it was in the past, the female swordsman would definitely either cover her head and blush and smirk, or shyly hammer a few laps on his back and say a few nasty words, but this time, Saf didn't react at all, just stared blankly at the ground.

"Now the irrelevant personnel can be disbanded, Dark, you go and redistribute the defense forces, and by the way, clean up the camp, and the others will return to the camp for the time being, and a few of us will stay here to wait, and wait for the projection door to close in thirteen minutes, and then resume normal work. Shuer showed a sad expression, and drew a circle on his chest with his fingers, "I think you already have an idea of what happened, and Master Mia will explain the specific situation to you later." But now I can tell you that those who disappeared will not be able to come back. Maybe there are relatives and friends among these people, but the wilderness is like this, accidents can happen every moment, and you should be mentally prepared to step into the wilderness. ”

"As the living, we must continue to cherish our lives, and for the departed, we have no other way but to express our condolences, so let me, on behalf of all of you, in the name of the Apostle of the Dark Moon, offer the last blessings to the deceased, may the souls lost in the other world have eternal rest, in the name of the Lord, holy. ”

"Wait a minute. The mountain elf Mia had been in a bit of a trance along the way, and at this time, she seemed to have finally made up her mind and interrupted Xiu'er's arrangement, "Thirteen minutes, let's help me prepare the necessary items, I want to go in." ”

"Huh, where are you in?" Shul didn't react for a moment, completely unaware of what Mia was saying.

"Otherworldly projection. ”

"Are you crazy?" Before Shul could say anything, Miridy had already rushed over, grabbing the collar of Mia's robe with both hands, and roared with a hideous expression, "Do you want to die? If you want to die, I'll let you die a happy death now, and you don't have to look for death in the otherworldly projection." ”

"Smack", the magic shield flicked off Miridy's hand, and Mia looked surprisingly calm, "Letty, I know what I'm doing. I brought these people out of the Blue Tower, and they believed that I could arrange everything properly, so they were relieved to come with me to the wilderness. The decision to deal with burrowing spiders was also made by me, and I was also very responsible for their falling into the otherworldly projection. Now they may be in danger of their lives, yes, I can ignore them, and no one can say that what I did was wrong, but I can't deceive myself, and if I see them die inside, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well for the rest of my life. ”

"Even if you don't sleep well, you can at least have the rest of your life. Miridy's tone softened, but was still full of resentment, "Do you know that there is no difference between going in now and sending you to die......? I ......"

"Don't worry, I'm not dying that easily. Mia actually smiled, "You help me take care of the companions of the Blue Tower, I ......"

"Idiot flat-chested, are you stupid to say such a thing?" Milita regained her former arrogance and said disdainfully, "Dare to refuse my order, do you think I will let you go?" ”

"Heh, whatever you want, exhibitionist. With no intention of dissuading Militi at all, Mia accepted Miridy's plan as a matter of course, snorted softly, and said to Shure, "Your Excellency, and Dark, then this place will be left to you." The target is actually almost done, and after clearing the other houses, summing up the harvest, you can return to Gravel City in a few days. Let's wait for us in Gravel City for a while, and I hope we can meet again. ”

"You wait first. Shuer frowned and said, "I'm not qualified to give any advice when you go in, but don't you settle the account first?"

There was silence, and everyone around stared at Shul with very strange eyes.

"Is there anything wrong?" said Shuer, of course, "it is normal to settle the accounts and settle the work clearly." ”

"Then do a little bit of timing and when I'm all done, I'll find that the projection door is closed, right? Directly broke Xiu'er's thoughts, Mia said with a straight face, "I will accept my heart, but what I have already decided will not be changed, as for the accounts, the Blue Tower will naturally clean up the aftermath for me, rest assured." ”

"Good luck then. Shure shrugged.

"I'll go too. Hearing this voice, Shuer covered half of his face in despair, as if he had expected it, and sighed deeply.
