Chapter 46: The Vanishing Village

Raul's cabin was bubbling and crumbling in the mud and sand, and Jarre crashed into it before it collapsed to find old Robert hiding under the bed.

The old man had rich experience in escaping and was unharmed, and after seeing him, his face was also calm.

With a loud bang, the beams fell, and the boy simply kicked through the wall, picked up the old man and ran towards the north of the village. The terrain was flat, and it had been destroyed by Vam again, and everything that could collapse collapsed, but it was relatively safe in comparison.

Placing the old driver on a boulder, he rushed to the earthquake-stricken village to help Nicole save people.

The earthquake lasted for about a minute, and the anger of the earth was like a giant palm, erasing a qiē, and the village of Desa was reduced to history. When Clark finds the airship, it has been damaged by rubble and has lost the ability to fly.

The trio searched around the ruins of the village for a whole night and rescued most of the villagers. Fortunately, because the dwellings were small and wooden, they had only minor injuries at most.

At daylight, leaning against the half-broken wooden beam, Clark wiped the dust off his face and said behind him, "The sound of breathing underground is gone." ”

Nicole walked up to him and handed him a jug of water: "Drink, the deceased is gone, if you want to blame this earthquake, it was too coincidental." ”

Clark took a few sips, wiped the water from his lips, and turned his gaze to her, "What do you mean?"

At this moment, the broken wall on the right was lifted and thrown away, and the dirt was slapped off his hands, and Yare walked over with a calm face and looked at his two companions: "You must go and see, Vam is dead." ”

“......!!!”

When they returned to Vam's body, the monster had taken its last breath, half of its body buried under the mud and sand, and the giant mouth was still stuffed with rocks.

The troll was already scarred and had multiple fatal wounds on its body, and it was not an accident that it died in the earthquake. With the amateur-level autopsy level of the three, there is no clue.

Nicole stepped forward, approached Vam's corpse, picked out a dark red scale, and turned to face the two: "Let's go back immediately, the sooner the better, the villagers here need supplies and rescue." ”

"But Raul, we haven't decided for sure. Yare's shoulders shook him.

"Which is more important than the lives of the rest of the village?" clicked, the bricks and stones under her feet were trampled to pieces, and Nicole changed to a fierce expression.

Considering that although this captain usually acts with a big grin, he is thoughtful and experienced. He was still half a rookie, and it was difficult to understand the other party's deep meaning, so he decided to obey: "Okay, you have the final say." ”

Clarke's side was of course even better, the three of them opened the Raul family's house, found their belongings, explained them to the victims, and took Robert Sr. into the lush primeval forest.

Losing the airship, they had to walk through the primeval forest to the nearest town before they could hire a car to go back.

The choppy woods were dark and silent, and the sun was shining through the shade of the leaves, like stars twinkling in the sky, a little dazzling, but very crystal beautiful, revealing an unpredictable silence.

The four of them walked through the big jungle, surrounded by ancient trees, branches and leaves, and all kinds of plants in the forest flourished to show the vitality of life.

In the middle of the night, the sporadic moonlight pierced through the branches and leaves, and all the trees were like dead skeletons, but only unknown insects chirped.

Nicole, who was walking in front, stopped her steps, looked at the night sky, and showed a smile: "The one who is watching is gone?"

Clark also looked at the sky: "Two black kites, they haven't flown over for more than half an hour." ”

With the aroma of milk in the night breeze of the forest, Yalei took a deep breath and said with a sinking face: "The three people who have the ability to protect them have to leave, and there is no one to keep them, the villagers are really too strong. ”

"Oops, oops, our junior brother has finally grown up. The female knight winked playfully, raised her index finger and said crisply, "It's time to assign tasks." ”

"Yare's mission is to escort Mr. Robert Sr. through the forest and return to the squad as soon as he finds the town. Clark and I immediately went back to see if we could catch anything strange. ”

After a pause, Nicole stared into his eyes and said solemnly, "Remember, when you come back, you must observe the village in the dark." In case there is no trace of us, retreat immediately, and do not hesitate. ”

And just like that, here we go. After the female knight finished speaking, she nodded lightly to Clark, and the two of them instantly disappeared into the jungle.

"This little girl is very powerful, you have to study hard. Old Robert pleasantly spat out a smoke ring.

"Of course I do......," Yalei galloped, the reflection of the bushes beside him quickly retreated, and he turned his head in disgust when he smelled the smoke: "Also, please don't let people smoke while running." ”

"There's no way, I can't stop my addiction to smoking, I can't smoke when I drive an airship, so I can't take such a comfortable ride, how can I not comfort myself...... Would you like one?"

"Is it appropriate to smoke on someone's back and still say such things?"

"You're too young, I went to Gaul a few years ago to assist in the mission, and I encountered a similar situation. That knight's apprentice is taller than you don't know, and I smoked, and he talked and laughed behind my back. ”

While the black boy was carrying the old driver on his back and walking through the forest, Nicole and Clark also sneaked back to the village of Dessa, and the two of them hid in the mountains to the west and peeked into the village.

But after several hours, there was still no figure, and the ruins of the village were silent, and from time to time a few wild birds flew down.

"Strange, where have they gone?" Nicole lay behind the rocks, looking east to observe the ruins of the village, and couldn't help but feel a little anxious when she didn't see the smoke for a long time.

Clark stood up: "I'll take a look." ”

"Well, be careful. After thinking about it for a while, the female knight agreed.

Half an hour later, Clark emerged from the rubble and waved his arms at her location, signaling that there were no villagers.

"Did they move overnight?" the knight frowned in thought, the fingers of her right hand tapping the stone rhythmically, listening only to the sound of the thump.

Hundreds of families have just been hit by the earthquake, and many of them are still alive and well, and even if they want to move, they should leave traces. And there is a bad water around them, where can they go?

Unless...... The earthquake, the death of Vam, and the disappeared villagers all make sense in one sentence. I didn't expect to lead the snake out of the hole, but it was led away.

Thinking of this, Nicole's silver teeth gurgled and her fist smashed a rock: "We were all tricked by Raul." ”

At noon, Yalei finally carried the old driver out of the forest, and only after watching the other party ride away did he get back into the woods. After throwing off the burden, he relied on the compass left by the other party to rush back to the village of Desa before sunset.

As Nicole instructed, he first hid in the woods and observed for a while, and now in the open space in front of the village, Clark beckoned to him.

"What about the villagers?" asked Yalei as he slapped the grass clippings off his body as he walked out of the bushes.

The man's eyes were a little gloomy, and he said in frustration: "Disappeared, Nicole and I have been looking for a long time, but we haven't seen their whereabouts." ”

"How could it be, they were still following us with black kites. ”

"Catch!" accompanied by a slightly neutral and hearty female voice, a piece of fragrant barbecue flew over.

He stretched out his hand and grabbed it, and subconsciously leaned over and nibbled on it.

"Two days and nights, so long without sleep, even we can't stand it. Mastering the limits of one's physical fitness and replenishing it at the right time is also part of the practice. ”

After three times and five divided by two, Yalei realized that he was so hungry. Licking the oil stains on his fingers, he stared at each other, indicating that this was not enough.

Nicole pinned her hands behind her back, walked over slowly, and stuffed him with a whole roast rabbit: "Take a rest after eating, and we'll continue to look for it tomorrow." It is impossible for a person to disappear into thin air, and no matter how well prepared he is, he will definitely leave a trail. ”

He nibbled on the rabbit meat and nodded.
