I...... Not dead?

Corbock reopened his eyes, and was greeted by the soft glow of the fire crystal.

"What happened just now?" he asked, looking to the future colleague beside him who had saved him from the brink of death, "I should have died just now......

Somewhat incoherent.

- That's right, you're dead, welcome to ...... The afterlife.

Amy looked at the short boy who was lying on the ground and didn't realize that he should get up for a while, sighed softly, swallowed the words that did not conform to the setting of the Judas character with difficulty, and said in an indifferent voice that matched the cold face: "You think too much. ”

？？？

As could be seen from the blank brown pupils, Corbock was clearly unresponsive.

"I'm thinking too much......" he pointed to himself, then stood up from the ground, patted the dust on the sword-wielding's uniform, and asked, "What do you think too much?"

"It's just an illusion. The young Glory One looked away.

Relying on the spirit of hallucinatory interference, this is not the first time he has encountered this kind of demon, as early as in the lower area of Hemtika, he encountered a similar existence - it is precisely because of this that he can make the right judgment as soon as he realizes that something is wrong, and rely on the stupid method of obscuring vision to save the unlucky child in front of him.

"Is it a hallucination...... Cowbock recalls the scene, so real that there is still fear that penetrates deep into the bone marrow, "I really don't see it, can you tell me what the flaw is?"

"Intuition. Amy replied calmly.

“......”

The boy from Ramsden didn't know how to take over the conversation, and all he could do was silence.

"Not exactly," Amy wasn't going to hide on the subject, "if there's one reason—it's just too strong." ”

"What do you mean?" Cowbock still couldn't fully comprehend what the other man was saying.

"I didn't look back at it, so I don't know what you saw. "But I can hear its voice, with a strange magic, a voice that rings directly in the back of my heart—it's not something that a mere demon can do." ”

"Mere ...... Demons?"

In his attitude towards demons, the short boy was keenly aware of the gap between them.

"If it's really as powerful and strange as you see, then we'll be reduced to food the moment we see it. Amy raised an eyebrow, "But we didn't wake it up and walk into the end of what is called death, and if we think about it with contrarian thinking here, we can easily come to a conclusion—"

"It's not really strong, it's even quite weak. ”

"Yes. ”

There is no problem with logic, but if he can analyze the truth of the demon in just a few tens of seconds and put his conjecture into action, he still has to admit that this Judas, who was able to survive the battle that broke out in Hemtika, is indeed a pretty remarkable guy.

Nope-

It was no longer appropriate to call him a guy at this moment, after all, he had just saved his life.

Corbock would never be naïve enough to think that so-called hallucinations are really just hallucinations.

If you don't do it right, I'm afraid it's really ...... will die.

He has this realization, and he really feels the coldness of death, so his heart will be full of emotion.

"Thank you. ”

He deliberately kept his voice low, and he didn't intend to let anyone but himself hear it—gratitude never relied on weak words, but actions.

He will thank him for this kindness with his actions.

"Oh, no thanks. Although there is not much left of the strong physique derived from the blood of the ancestors at this time, the Glory Ones are still a grade higher than ordinary people in terms of acuity, "We will continue to rush when we have rested enough." ”

"Hmm. Somewhat awkwardly nodded, "Where do we go next?"

This is an unavoidable issue before us.

"If you don't get any easier, I'm afraid you'll run into that troublesome guy. "Mental pollution enemies, if she can, Amy doesn't intend to provoke, but looking back now, the waste of energy and time is too unwilling, "It's not feasible to go back, go left." ”

There is a fork in the road on the left, narrow and deep, leading to an unknown distance.

Cowbock, who had just been saved, naturally did not refuse, and the two of them walked into the narrow alleyway that could only accommodate a few people under the dim light of the fire crystal.

Unexpectedly, the road was peaceful, and they were not attacked by demons.

But this is not something to be thankful for, the hunting ground is not a tree without roots, water without a source, and the safer and quieter it is, the more amazing the dangers that may be encountered later.

Because, even demons will have the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.

"Do you want to go back?" I don't know if it's an illusion, but Corbock felt the darkness surging in front of him like a big mouth that chose people to devour, waiting for them to throw themselves into the net, "I feel that something is wrong. ”

"There's no need," Amy said, glancing sideways at him, in a cold voice peculiar to Judas, "there's a big guy up ahead, but that's why we need to get there." ”

"Why?" a puzzled look appeared on the face of the unbaptized reservist sword-wielding, but he quickly sensed the meaning of the Glorious One's words, "What do you mean...... Anyone else?"

Amy nodded.

"You're so sharp," Cockcock exclaimed in heartfelt admiration, but the flattering smile on his face only lasted for a dozen seconds before it fell apart—his brow furrowed for a moment before he relaxed, "There are at least three sets of swords, and it looks like we've bumped into a large force this time." ”

There was bitterness in the words, and the three companions could not lock on to the winning enemy, so it must be difficult to deal with.

"The sound of three sets of swords lasted for a short time," the infiltrator from Hemtika analyzed the situation quite calmly, his blue eyes calm and calm, "It can't be a particularly powerful guy." ”

That's based on you.

Cowbock looked at him quietly, then sighed.

This guy is really too powerful and calm, what kind of monster did the war in Hemtika create - he can treat most demons as nothing before he is implanted with stigmata, if he is really implanted with stigmata, I am afraid that a monster that can crusade against high-level demons with a "seal" will be born.

Compared with...... I'm really weak.

Once again, the young reservist sword-wielder confronted his weakness, and then followed in the footsteps of the boy who called himself Judas.

Finally—

The deep alleyways end here, and the whole world suddenly opens up.

It's a real suddenness!

Several lanterns lit up the darkness, temporarily creating a field of light.

"It's here. ”

Amy said, stopping here.

It's not brave and resourceful, no matter what, this is also a powerful character who can contain three elites trained by the Discipline Institute at the same time, and after he falls into a state of weakness for unknown reasons, he may not be able to defeat it completely.

With a calm mind, he carefully looked at the battlefield.

There were seven reservist sword-wielders present, but only three were still alive.

Three people were left with only mutilated bodies, and the remaining one was covered in blood and lay in a pool of blood, unknown whether he would live or die.

The monster that caused all this did not show its form on the ground, and the only thing reflected in the blue eyes of the Glory One was the three reserve sword bearers who were patrolling around vigilantly in the dim light.

And just as he was watching them, one of them noticed his arrival.

"Be careful—"

Almost at the same time as the voice sounded, the alarm bell sounded in the heart of the young man who had wandered on the edge of life and death many times.

- Retreat!

Without any hesitation, he jumped back rather unnaturally.

Then, a large expanse of dirt flew, a large mouth with no end in sight opened, and the hideous mouthparts that were divided into four petals kept opening and closing, almost rubbing his clothes and surging upwards.

It's dangerous......

The heart stopped for a moment, but the next moment a chilling killing machine rose from the heart.

Draw your sword, whirl and slash!

The weight of the broad-bladed thick-ridged cross sword for the reserve sword bearers was not light, and Amy deliberately used inertia to slash down from the diagonal top, and the strength was not insignificant—with just one blow, black blood sprayed out of the wound, mixed with the dirt that had not yet completely fallen, and it was a fishy smell.

Keep up the good work.

The young Glory One did not intend to let the tiger go back, he was well aware that the moment when the other party launched the attack was when the old force was old and the new force was not born, and if he did not seize this precious opportunity to inflict heavy damage on it, when the other party sank into the dirt again, things would become quite tricky.

So, with a twist of his waist, his left foot couldn't help but take a step back, and in just one breath, he mobilized all the strength of his whole body and exhaled.

"Drink!"

The subconscious words vented his anger, and at the critical moment of life and death, the intuition that had saved his life several times once again issued a warning.

- The crisis comes from underfoot!

At this time, it was too late to withdraw the move, and the choice between killing the enemy and keeping himself was clearly foreseen, and the Glorious One did not hesitate at all, so he let go of the hilt of the sword in his hand, and the whole person fell to the ground along the suddenly unbalanced body, and rolled over, temporarily away from the dangerous place under his feet.

"Bang!"

At this moment, the piece of land he was still standing on exploded, and the bluestone bricks flew up all over the sky, as if the previous situation was repeated, and the hideous mouthparts that were split into four petals passed by him again!

This monster ...... More than one!

The throbbing in his heart is indescribable, even if he is a teenager who is on the verge of death many times, the thrilling of this moment has not lost even half of his color.

And it was only at this moment that Corbock, who was not far from him, had just reacted.

"Crassus's tentacles!"

He couldn't help but lose his voice—but in the next moment, he realized the danger of the situation, and his eyes hesitated and struggled for a moment, and then drew his sword from behind.

"Next!"

The boy from the Ramsden Training Institute shouted loudly, his broad-bladed cross-sword slicing through the air in a perfect arc before ...... I didn't even look at the results, he just ...... Turn around and run!?

This guy -

The young Glory One caught the heavy sword, his eyes swept over the brave or timid companion, and then waved a wave of wind!

"Thank you!"

He said that after dodging the third tentacle that came out of the ground, the cross-sword slashed down again!
