Everything is quiet.

The tide receded with Nagian's annihilation, revealing the wreckage of the town. The fog cleared, and a ray of light pierced through the clouds and cleared.

Yugshia muttered, "It's over. ”

Lorne returned to the rooftop of the hospital, limping to his knees. He held his head in his hands in pain, and the armor pieces of his body were gradually absorbed by his skin, and finally disappeared, and his naked upper body was skinny.

Lorne shuddered uncontrollably, as if on the verge of collapse. He was incoherent, repeating, "It's not me...... I didn't do it......"

"Shut up, shut up, shut up!" he roared again, hammering his head as if to silence someone, but no one spoke.

Yugosia looked at him, leaned down silently, put one hand on Lorne's shoulder, and tried to reassure: "It's not you, it's not you. It was an evil god who did it. ”

The words seemed to have some effect, and Lorne's chaotic murmurs grew smaller. Yughya continued to reassure softly: "Nagian is killed, it's over. ”

Lorne breathed heavily and stopped talking. Yugosia didn't know what the voice in his head was saying, but the words must have pained him. Merging with the will of the ancient gods is a double destruction of the body and spirit, and it is already a miracle to be able to maintain consciousness.

Seeing that he was a little more stable, Yughya stood up and leaned against the railing, overlooking the ruined town. Except for the destroyed houses, there was basically nothing left, and people and monsters were carried away by the ebb tide.

After looking at it like this for a while, she closed her lips and began to clench her teeth hard, and finally bit hard, not allowing herself to make a sound. Her eyes were hot, and in her grief and indignation, her hands crumpled the iron railings out of shape.

But until the centurion and Rhodes and others rushed over, she did not shed a single tear. If grief and anger are useful, people don't have to struggle for a glimmer of hope.

Sheena ran into the hospital first, not most concerned about the results of her experiments on the third floor. She barged into the intensive care unit on the first floor, and there was nothing but broken glass windows. The man was taken away by the tide along with the hospital bed.

At this moment, she felt that her heart had been hollowed out, and she stood in the ward in a daze, her eyes empty.

No one survived the wounded in the hospital. Sunlight fell down the hallways, littering the floor with shards of glass and swollen corpses. The centurion and Rhodes rushed to the rooftop, relieved to see that Yugoshia was safe and sound.

Erin woke up at some point, and the cold of the sea made her shiver. She hugged Lorne from behind, her cheek against his ear, as if to warm and soothe.

Rhodes stood aside, his eyes very complicated: "Lorne...... Green. ”

Lorne turned his head to the side of his face when he heard someone call him, his eyes cloudy. This was the first time they met, and Rod looked at this teenager of his own age, and inexplicably felt frightened and repulsed.

Everything he had witnessed before reminded him of the word monster, and he almost blurted it out. But due to the presence of Yugshia and the others, and out of chivalric etiquette, Rhodes just nodded stiffly.

"Are you ......," Lorne asked.

"Rod Eureka. Rod took a silent breath, "The knight of the unicorn lion family, the guardian of the royal family. ”

Lorne tilted his head back and didn't speak. After a few seconds of silence, his whispered words sounded like a reproach: "Why are you only coming back now?"

Rhodes didn't have a good impression of him in the first place, and these words completely ignited his fire of rejecting aliens. But Rhodes didn't show anything, just lowered his eyes slightly, and replied: "In order to collect supplies, I delayed some more time." ”

Neither spoke anymore. Yugshia rubbed her eyes, stepped forward and patted Rod on the shoulder: "It's good to be back." ”

Everyone looked at the devastated Baifan Town, and despair rose in their hearts. Originally, it was said that after the return of the Rhodes team, they would embark on the journey back to the royal capital, but now it seems that the plan may never be continued.

The centurion came to Yugshia's side and asked in a deep sorrow, in a low voice, "Your Highness, what shall we do?"

Yughya did not answer, but took out the sealed tin box from her coat pocket and took a cigarette to her lips. With a snap of his fingers, the flames jumped. She took a deep breath, the sadness in her heart slowly exhaling with the smoke.

"On the road tomorrow. Her answer was simple.

Both the centurion and Rhodes were stunned: "Will you be on the road tomorrow......?"

Yughya interrupted the centurion's questioning: "Count the casualties, gather supplies. Call people back, I'm going to see how many people there are. The number of horses is also counted, and the deceased who can be found are buried outside the city. ”

"Your Highness. The centurion was in a complicated mood, and he stopped talking, but finally he didn't say anything more, and sighed.

"Go first. Yugshia whispered, looking at the huge iron warehouse that was intact by the White Sails Square, "Come to the warehouse in the evening." Lorne, come on too. ”

Rod didn't understand that this Lorne Green had such a high status in Yugoshia's heart. I've only been away for more than half a month, and this monster that came out of nowhere can be on an equal footing with me!

As a noble knight, he has always been arrogant. Rhodes couldn't understand it, and even wanted to question it out loud, but this was an order from His Highness Yugshia, and no matter how arrogant he was, he had to obey the royal order.

So Rod didn't say anything in the end, and left with the centurion, but met Sheena, who happened to be on the rooftop. Because of staying up late for a long time to do experiments, her already not plump cheeks are even deeper. The dark circles under the eyes are also severe, and there seem to be tear stains.

"Your Highness. Sheena took a deep breath and her voice trembled slightly, "Results...... Well preserved. The iron doors of the laboratory are well sealed, and the seawater does not cause ...... to the serum and magical materials. Damage. ”

Everyone present heard the sadness in her words that could not be hidden, and they all said nothing. The catastrophe of the depths of the sea, which had claimed so many lives and nearly destroyed all hopes of Kingdom revival, was finally a source of comforting news.

Yugshia nodded: "Sheena, we'll leave tomorrow, no problem, right?"

Sheena paused for a moment, then shook her head: "There is no problem, everything is subject to His Highness's arrangement." If nothing else, I'll go and treat the wounded first. ”

"Go ahead. Yugosia glanced at Lorne and Erin huddled together, "Take them for a change." ”

Rod glanced back, only to think that this guy was an eyesore, and he couldn't stand to be with a monster on the journey. And people didn't mention half of his terrible performance, and Rhodes even felt that Lorne had used some evil gods and monsters to bewitch the princess and the others.

A hint of murderous intent was planted in Rhodes's heart. He exhaled silently and left the rooftop.
