Chapter 69: Trouble is coming sooner or later

After turning over the mound of dirt and stones that had been pressing on the unfortunate fellow, Suven found that it was the blue hooded girl she had seen not long ago, as Laetitia had said. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Her clothes were so disheveled from the impact of the landslide that she was torn to strands in several places, but her body was not seriously injured, and there were no visible signs of bleeding. Su Wen didn't think that a living person would be lucky enough to be unscathed if she was smashed like this, so she guessed that it should have something to do with her identity as a magician, probably because she had taken some protective measures when she was smashed.

Anyway, the unknown girl seems to have just fainted at the moment, and there is no major problem. After being torn off her hood during the impact, she naturally revealed a pair of elven pointed ears similar to Laetitia's, and in this state, Su Wen looked obviously much more beautiful than when she wore the hood, and it was estimated that the thing was only worn to hide her identity.

Really, are you so unconfident in your own racial characteristics? Su Wen thinks that this kind of cute thing like elf pointed ears is a tyrannical thing if it is not revealed, and it is wonderful to see that Laetitia has never hidden it.

Because the injury was not serious, it was not difficult for the girl to wake up, so Su Wen casually took the kettle and poured the cold fresh water in it on her face. The latter soon barely opened her eyes in a trembling tremble, but when she saw Su Wen who was close at hand, she suddenly exclaimed softly, and the contempt attached to her eyes was almost undisguised.

This is strange, Su Wen has never done anything angry and perverted since he entered the second stage of the system, and although his appearance is not very outstanding, no matter how he thinks about it, he will not make a person who does not know him feel contemptuous for no reason. So thinking about it this way, is there really some sarcastic aura hidden in him?

Just as she was about to figure out the system and ask for a clue, the half-elf girl, who was obviously several years older than Laetitia, suddenly looked back at the valley in the distance, although it was tightly blocked by the hills in the wasteland, but the thick elemental aura that seemed to break through the clouds could be easily seen with the naked eye, and it was abnormal for her to notice it.

"It's the teacher...... Oh my God, what's going on in the town of Certorres?!"

Just one glance, she cried out.

"Before you pay attention to your teacher, shouldn't you explain why you're here?" Su Wen shook the bottle in front of the half-elf girl's eyes, "Is it a night run?"

Unexpectedly, this half-elf didn't intend to answer Su Wen's question at all, she glared at Su Wen fiercely, and said coldly: "...... Tell me what's going on!"

"Tsk, you guessed it, why did you come to Certores? Su Wen didn't care about the half-elf girl's natural hostility towards him, and he lifted his suitcase and observed the situation on both sides of the hill below, and after confirming that there was no danger, he beckoned Laetitia to continue walking.

"Wait, stop, why did you come out at night, or in the opposite direction of the Great Valley of the Prado...... Where's your carriage?"

"I asked you this question just now, and you haven't answered me yet. ”

"I ...... I came up because I saw you sneaky in the Tower, how did you know this was happening in advance?" the half-elf girl argued, and at the same time shifted her gaze from Su Wen to the silent Laetitia, as if trying to see something from her, "Little sister, don't be afraid of him, tell my sister what you have discovered, or if this guy has some conspiracy." Say it all, my sister is a member of the Wizards' Guild, and he doesn't dare to do anything to you. ”

β€œ......”

Su Wen finally understood, it turned out that the inexplicable disgust came from here.

The half-elf girl in front of her is obviously not a pariah, and it can basically be concluded that she is a veritable magician, presumably because she has some compassion for the fate of her own clan, so she will be hostile to herself who treats the half-elf as a slave.

When Laetitia heard this, she shook her head lightly and whispered, "I don't know anything. ”

Don't you plan to justify yourself in a few words?

However, since there is a magician here, although he is an unreliable guy who was smashed half dead by a landslide, being smashed like that and only fainting for a short time is enough to explain a lot of things, and considering that this half-elf magician has a good impression of Laetitia, Su Wen only thought about it for a moment, and planned not to continue to take Lytricia on the adventure. After all, no one knew the details of the current situation in the town of Certores, and he couldn't see the result at all through the elemental visions in the sky, and if a large group of demonic beasts suddenly came out of the vicinity, Su Wen didn't think that they would be easier to deal with than the wolves - if he didn't think that it would be more dangerous for Laetitia to stay alone in the wasteland, he wouldn't let her follow him here.

Knowing that he was unwelcome, Su Wen did not try to talk to the half-elf magician, but only explained that Laetitia was waiting here, then put down his luggage and left lightly. The half-elf mage seemed to be more concerned about the situation in the town of Certores than Suven, but her calf seemed to have been injured by the impact of the stone, and it was difficult to even stand up for a short time, so she had to let him go.

Due to the severe landslide, the already rugged valley was even more chaotic, and Su Wen had to navigate through the soft mud and rocks. However, this is not difficult for him without any burden, and the two-kilometer journey can be completed in only five minutes, which is faster than many people running on flat ground.

At this point, the outline of the town of Certores is already in sight.

Unexpectedly, Su Wen saw the most conspicuous lighthouse...... of the ruins. The magic energy telelight that originally broke through the sky had disappeared in just ten minutes, replaced by a larger and more conspicuous spot of light, with the convenience of the convergence of light elements, Su Wen easily observed the tall tower that had been cut off by a small half of its body: between the ruins and broken walls, there was a large amount of smoke composed of sand, stone and dust, but there was no obvious fire, and even if there was probably a dazzling light element, it was probably obscured by the dazzling light element.

Su Wen kept his guard forward, because the elemental fluctuations in and above the town were so dazzling that Su Wen, who was several kilometers away, could see everything around him without the help of a torch. Even if you ignore the difference between light and dark due to the angle of the light source, the surrounding environment is almost the same as daylight.

Against this backdrop, Su Wen only had to pay attention to the noise around him, but to his surprise, he had never been able to find any trace of the monster until he approached the entrance of the town of Certores, not even the larger beasts, which had largely fled to the depths of the wasteland.

In contrast, Su Wen gradually heard the noise of human voices, but did not see any figures near the entrance of the town. Judging from the fact that all the houses near the entrance of the town were intact, the people were probably concentrated in the center of the town of Certoris at this time, because it was the only direction that there was a steady stream of smoke and it looked badly damaged.

At the same time, Su Wen also noticed a change in the air in the town.

Faint clusters of light floated in the streets, houses, and in the sky...... You can feel the softest light everywhere. These light elements that were left over after the magic was released filled all corners of the town, spreading out of the town at an extremely slow speed, making Su Wen feel as if there was an all-encompassing warmth around him.

This was the first time that Su Wen felt the existence of the elements since he came to the Brilliant Continent, and it was also the first time he saw the unique charm of this world compared to his original world. This feeling had never even occurred when Donald had released the forbidden spell called "Sky Settle", because the latter looked like an ordinary earth shaking, and the forbidden spell had only just begun but not really released, and now what was in front of him was the afterglow of the high-level magic being completely released, and the real but untouchable illusion brought by the endless light element made Su Wen feel that it was really wonderful.

Well, now was not the time to pay attention to this, Su Wen felt that he should find out the situation as soon as possible, after all, there were still two half-elves waiting a few kilometers away.

Hurrying to the center of the town, through the dense light elements on the roof, Su Wen could barely see a huge figure like a small hill, but because it was the place where the light elements were most dense, he couldn't see it clearly from a distance. But as he got closer and closer to the ruins of the tower, Su Wen gradually heard the screams of the chaotic voices mixed with the screams from time to time, followed by more and more traces of stones smashed through the surroundings, and this place became more and more like the tragic ruins after the great war.

Especially the hotel where he and Laetitia had stayed, when Su Wen walked there, he found that the surrounding buildings had long been destroyed. The stone pavement was densely covered with a large number of radial cracks and ravines, and a large number of townspeople were concentrated here, many of them beating and overturning in the ruins, and from time to time the wounded with missing arms and legs were carried or carried out of the ruinsβ€”this kind of scene Su Wen couldn't help but find it very intimate, although he didn't think it was something to be happy about.

At this point, the "hill" that had emerged out of thin air in the center of the town was finally visible: the behemoth, the author of the chaos, had apparently broken through the ground and emerged from the center of the town not long ago, and the devastation and destruction around it was partly due to the damage it caused to the ground when it came out, and the other half due to the impact of the tossed rocks falling from the sky. But its appearance always made Su Wen feel a little familiar - it was definitely not the giant demonic beast sand scorpion described in the notice, but more like some kind of giant worm, its ring-shaped body that could barely be hugged by twenty or thirty people looked extremely greasy, and the high concentration of light elements contaminated on it made it look even more recognizable.

Poof, a white worm that lives in the shadows of the heath?

Su Wen finally remembered one of the two specialties of the Northern Wasteland on the table, but he didn't expect that after the Nine Sand Scorpion Kings decided to become a demonic beast, the white worm, which was also a delicacy, was not to be outdone, and at the same time completed the great process of turning over the salted fish, from a delicacy on the table to a beast of mass destruction.

It's just that this extremely huge white worm is obviously dead, and its huge body has already been penetrated by the light element, and it has almost broken into two or three pieces. On the surface of the huge wound in this fat monster's body, extremely strong elemental light covered it layer by layer, so as not to let its corpse flow a large amount of slurry, but its relatively intact body was not covered with a heavy shell at all, but looked like a small white worm, and even the faint organs inside could be seen through the thick-skinned skin, so Su Wen really seriously doubted how it had turned the center of the town into the current miserable state.

But this is not something that Su Wen has to care about, since this place has become basically safe after the master's attack, he decided to go back and pick up Laetitia first, after all, staying in the wild cannot be completely safe. And the carriage that broke down in the middle of the road...... After all, unimportant luggage is not garbage that can be discarded casually, and if there is a chance, it must be packed back, and Su Wen can already predict the tragic fate of running around all night.

But just as he was about to turn away, a thick, heavy palm was placed on his shoulder.

This really surprised him, because he hadn't even noticed anyone approaching behind him before, which meant that the guy who was patting him on the shoulder was definitely not a generic person.

When he looked back, Su Wen saw an unfamiliar face. This man looks like an ordinary middle-aged uncle, both in appearance and dress, but there is a black-sheathed long-handled sword pinned to his waist, and the patterns on the scabbard and hilt are extremely exquisite, which is very incompatible with his overall style, making it difficult to understand whether his identity is expensive or cheap.

Before Su Wen could express his doubts, the mediocre-looking middle-aged man smiled and spoke.

"The teacher said he wanted to see you, please here. ”

It's a teacher again!

Su Wen suddenly thought of something, his gaze crossed the middle-aged man, glanced towards the mutilated bell tower behind the corpse of the huge white worm, and sure enough, he saw an old man who was being supported. This old man was probably the teacher in the mouths of this group, and when Su Wen looked at him, he was also looking at Su Wen quietly, but judging from his weak appearance as if he was overly drunk, it was really difficult for Su Wen to associate him with the old magician who made a calm voice in the tower.

Su Wen guessed that this was probably weakness after releasing the skill.

So, is this to settle accounts with the queen of the autumn, and it really shouldn't have attracted his attention.
