Chapter IV Hunting Grounds

Doubts have not decreased, but increased.

It was an incredible thing, and the memories of him, and even the thousands of reservist sword-wielding in the entire floating fleet, were rewritten, and they all lost a lot of time.

As a matter of common sense, the most likely force to do this is the Order Headquarters.

But there is a lack of motivation.

The chain of logic is missing, and the truth is still hidden in the fog of ambiguity.

And...... Kaurbock?

The Descendant of Glory from Hemtika City glanced at the square-faced, simple-looking young man behind him, this short guy should be the reserve sword-bearer who had provoked the Frost Giant before, telelogically speaking, there was no need for him to lie about the Moonlight Grass, but after several deceptions and exploits by Dick, the young Glory-bearer had very limited trust in the sword-bearers who were destined to part ways with him.

"What do you think we should do next? ”

Fortunately, the cold face of Judas he played, which was rewritten by the alchemy prop "Shameless Moon", created a kind of indifference and alienation that rejected people thousands of miles away.

"Keep looking for your companions," the Order's Reserve Sword Bearer echoed his thoughts, "In this city of demons full of dangers, even if you are as powerful as you, you are not immune to being alone. ”

Amy didn't answer because it was true.

The strong physique derived from the blood of the ancestors in his body has been broken at this moment, and it is not an easy thing for him to fight against all kinds of demons with a physical quality that is not much different from that of ordinary people.

"And food and water. ”

After a brief pause, the Glory One added.

"Food and water are indeed a problem," and a matter of urgency, and the floating fleet sent by the Order's headquarters naturally had a corresponding supply of food, and no one would bother to prepare dry rations for the long voyage - and even if there were, how much was left from the long floating voyage before?

But—

"There's no way we can solve this problem. Perhaps because of the completely different classes and growth environments of the two parties, Corbock's way of looking at the problem is very different from Amy's, "Since there is nothing to do, there is no need to think about it, because this is fate, fate." ”

As he spoke, he shrugged.

"Yes. The glorious ones are noncommittal.

There's no need to waste energy on pointless disputes, besides...... He can't come up with a good solution right now.

Just put aside the controversy, and he walked forward on his own.

"Aren't you waiting?" Behind him, the reservist sword-wielding from Ramsden quickly followed, "There was quite a lot of momentum just now, and many people should be able to notice this." ”

"So?" Amy raised an eyebrow.

"How about staying here?" suggested Corbock, "it is better to cultivate our own fields than to forage like a wild dog—thanks to the frost giants, we now have a better way of searching for our companions—is it better to have them come to us than to go to them with the trouble of asking them to come to us? ”

"I must correct your misconceptions," the Glory's footsteps paused slightly, "First, your method is not as efficient as you think, first of all, you are not as important as you think, and secondly, the noise caused by the frost giant is indeed not small, but I am afraid that it can only be heard in a few nearby streets, and even if you hear it, you may not be able to make up your mind to rush over- The darkness that you can't see, the elusive demons, the way to the source of the sound, or even the sheer fear of it, even if you waste a day here, I'm afraid you won't be able to wait for a few people. ”

"But you're even more inefficient like that. Cowberk pointed this out.

"It's not about efficiency," Amy shook her head, "I'm just used to using my time more efficiently, and more importantly, it's too risky to be stuck in one place like you." ”

"What can be the risk? The reservist sword-wielder from Ramsden asked.

"You don't think that the only people who will be attracted to the sound are our companions. "The Glory One immediately said the problem pass, "The frost giant's frontal combat ability is not weak, but it is only not weak, in the deep night of demons, it can only be called the middle and upper, not enough to establish its own hunting ground, in the end, it is just a reserve granary for those who are really difficult to deal with." ”

"What do you mean......" realized his omission - just as large predators have their own hunting grounds, powerful demons often form their own circles, and the instructors of the Discipline Institute have focused on this aspect in class, which can be regarded as common sense to survive in the middle of the night.

Forgetting this, he was ashamed.

"It's just possible," Amy pointed out the fact, "but we can't afford it." ”

Just as there are large predators where there is no meadow, not all places where there are demons have hunting grounds, but he, and indeed none of them, can afford to gamble.

Those who can have a hunting ground are all extremely difficult guys.

At least for the ordinary people who have not yet been implanted with stigmata. Even if you can gather a lot of combat power, it is very unwise to go head-to-head with a monster of that level - after all, the world is not simple enough to solve all problems with just fighting and killing, meaningless battles are just a waste of energy and time, and energy and time are obviously quite precious in this dead city where there is no supply point.

"I see. Corbock had no reason to veto, and he didn't intend to veto, but just as he was about to say a few words of praise and compliment to bring the two sides closer, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he pulled out the broad-bladed heavy sword from his back, "It's a pity...... Our luck doesn't look good. ”

The road has come to an end in front of you.

A white wall has blocked the way forward—no, not a white wall, but something that looks like a wall, something ...... Devil.

The fire crystal dispelled the darkness in front of him and awakened the demon's sleeping will.

A slight bump on the wall was raised, and then there was a creepy sound of flesh and blood, and the outward protruding sarcoma squeezed a deep line in the middle, and then ...... An eye the size of a human head suddenly opened, and the huge eyes scurried around unconsciously like spasms.

"Let's go!"

A sense of uneasiness suddenly appeared in her heart at this moment, and Amy restrained her abnormal curiosity, grabbed the reservist sword-wielder who was still in a daze at her side, and ran back without looking back.

"You...... I can't run away from ......"

A voice came straight to the bottom of my heart, and the eyeballs that were scurrying around finally found their way, locked on the two people who were trying to escape.

Then, the whole wall began to change.

Bulges, sarcomas, squeezed lines, followed by ...... Open your eyes.

Densely packed and occupy the entire wall of the eye.

Eyes of darkness, eyes of resentment, eyes of malice—

Just by looking at them, Kobbo felt a mental confusion, and his consciousness felt cloudy.

"Run, run, they're moving. ”

He shouted a reminder to the boy who was pulling him all the way forward.

The wall has moved?

Not only that, but under the white and flawless wall, there are dense feet like centipedes, but they are not slender like insects, but round and plump, white and delicate...... Woman's legs.

A thousand eyes, a thousand legs.

For no apparent reason, Corbock clarified the concept.

Then, next is ......

A thousand hands.

The young man, who had not yet truly become a sword bearer, had a great fear in his heart, as if in the next moment, death would come as scheduled.

As if he had guessed what he was thinking, and as if he had been born in accordance with his terror, the white wall began to squirm again.

Arms as delicate as lotus roots stretched out from the wall, one, two, three...... All the way to the point where it is hard to count!

"You...... I can't escape the ......"

There is a voice ringing in the ears, delicate and gentle, which makes people always sink inadvertently.

But all the malice was revealed in the next -

The slender and white arms like a girl began to extend at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the beautiful form was distorted and deformed by excessive elongation, and from a distance it looked like a noodle constantly swaying in the wind, no, it should be a thousand, a thousand noodles that densely occupied the entire field of vision, and the white palms at the end of it that seemed to be begging for something.

"No, no, no!"

The distance of more than ten meters was fleeting, and the hand that was pulled like a kite was close at hand.

Then, a sarcoma grew in the middle of the palm, and the squeezed blood vessels gathered together to form a blue-purple color.

— and then, the sarcoma opened and the sauce overflowed, revealing fiery red lips with twelve teeth.

The red lips opened and closed up and down, and they spoke softly and viciously.

"Let's be one—"

The hoarse mature female voice is like a nightmare from hell, and a thousand mouths speak at the same time, and at the same time the mouth opens wide at the same time, and swarms the sword wielders of the reserves!

She, they, want, eat, drop, me!

It was only for a moment that Corbock realized this, his eyes widened unconsciously, and he gradually lost his lustre.

The cloud of death hangs over the heart, and the shadow of fear dominates the heart.

"Don't, don't, help me......"

He opened his mouth, and unconscious spilled out of his lips with desperate pleadings and wails.

However, no one answered.

A pair of hands and a mouth have taken over his entire field of vision.

And then...... A voice rang out.

"Close your eyes, idiot!"

Then, a hand pressed against his head.

"Ahh

Subconsciously let out a scream to no avail, and his consciousness came to an abrupt end, leaving only the deepest darkness in Cowbock's eyes.

It's finally over.

- At the end of his consciousness, he couldn't help but have such thoughts.
