Chapter 617: Not Found

Emlina made a mistake when she traveled to the habitats of the various races, neglecting the ceiling overhead while only checking the destroyed magic circles on the ground and trying to find out if there was anything unusual in their vicinity. Of course, there is nothing wrong with this, no one is perfect, even if it is an out-of-spec girl, she will also make mistakes. It's just that this neglected place has caused a lot of trouble in the future, and by the way, it has also allowed us to truly experience what it means to save the world with our own hands.

None of us knew this at this stage, and the blonde girl and I were focused on the task.

Sister Purple, who is always 17 years old, did not participate in the reconnaissance mission, and with her ability, she must know where the main force of the demon is hiding, but this great god obviously does not intend to say it, even if Emilina tries to bribe with a doughnut, it has no effect, and she is slapped on the head with a paper fan instead.

It's a pity, I thought it would work, but I didn't expect that guy to be unexpectedly very principled.

After failing to bribe the gods, Emilina had no choice but to obediently take me out of the position and start scouting. It's never a good idea to go through the sky, there are many peaks standing upside down on the ceiling, and if the demons hide their fleet behind the peaks and set up an ambush circle to lure the human forces to take the initiative, wouldn't we be going to get into someone's pockets?

By the way, the decrease in speed does not mean that I don't usually exercise much, and I didn't run long before I was out of breath and asked to rest, which slowed down Emilina, it was purely that the girl's running speed was not as fast as in Thunder Wing mode. And the blonde girl was still carrying a heavy burden in her hands, which further slowed down her speed.

In addition, the burden that Emilina carried in her hand was the person who was messy and tearful in the black wind.

The girl slid me on the ground and ran wildly, and the scenery on both sides of the road was reminiscent of the legendary racing game that would not kill anyone no matter what the speed was. Fortunately, Emlina bypassed the jungle directly in front of the position where a large number of curious climbers had gathered, otherwise it would have been believed that she was playing in the midst of thousands of horses.

I don't know how long it took. Maybe it was a few minutes, maybe only a few tens of seconds, and the blonde girl suddenly stopped, and at the same time, she finally got a chance to breathe, which was covered in the wind.

"Eventually, at last, it stopped. When Emilina let go of my hand, my legs were so weak that I didn't stand firmly, and I hurriedly reached out and held on to a tree next to me, "Did you find anything?"

"Did find some oddities. But it can't be used to make a conclusion. Emilina said as she poked her head out of the woody woody grove and looked out, "See the orcs?"

Why are the greenskins again? I rubbed my head vigorously to regain consciousness, and then poked my head out from behind the tree. I saw that in addition to the herds of leper dogs, there were many orcs wandering around at will. Something did not look right with them, after all, these creatures were sapient beings with a command of language, and conversation was inevitable when they gathered together - but the orcs I saw were not talking to each other at all, just wandering around aimlessly like the walking dead.

"Death salute?" I didn't pay much attention to it, waving my hand nonchalantly, "and even then, the orcs brought it on themselves. They went down the wrong path from the start. ”

Emmilina sighed angrily, "It's not a death salute." Haven't you ever seen the intelligent creatures infected by this thing, they are all very intelligent, and they can even use weapons, where do they look like these wild monsters in front of you that seem to be waiting to be farmed in the game?"

That's a really ...... evaluation It's just right. But anyway, the blonde girl was right, these orcs were like soulless marionettes, and if it weren't for the fact that Navga couldn't have appeared here, I'd have thought it was in the Erosion game.

"Is the other party alive or dead?" I observed for a long time without any clue, so I asked the girl next to me seriously, "It feels like it." But it doesn't seem like it. ”

Emilina gave me an answer that surprised me: "Half of each." They are the legendary half-dead, but different from the undead creatures. ”

β€œ...... Belle. Your explanation only makes me more confused, okay?"

"I did it on purpose. After successfully making me burst into tears instantly, Emilina raised her index finger and said, "The thing is actually very simple, those orcs have basically been drained of their spiritual power, and it is appropriate to say that they are empty shells without souls." Although it is not known why the demons did this, it must have something to do with their inexplicable retreat - if the other party did retreat. ”

"Huh. Will people become like that after draining their mental power!?" I couldn't help but whisper at the orc and asked in horror, "I always thought that after the mental power was exhausted, I would be fine if I just slept or rested for a few days after my mental power was exhausted!"

The blonde girl shook her head with her hand on her forehead with a smile: "Is it good to over-consume and completely drain up? Spiritual power is soul power in the final analysis, and after consumption, as long as a person is still alive, he can slowly recover like a grass that has been cut off the surface of the ground, but what do you think will happen if you cut the grass and eradicate the roots?"

"Does it hurt the soul?"

"Yes. Normally, no sapient being, whether it's magic or whatever, will not hurt its soul while draining its mental power. It's better to say that I have lost consciousness due to various adverse reactions before then. Emilina turned her gaze to the orcs outside again with a cold face and muttered, "Forcibly draining someone else's mental power and damaging the other person's soul is almost equivalent to murder, what the hell is the demon planning?"

I was also very puzzled by this: "Yes, I really don't understand what the demon is trying to extract the spiritual power of the orcs, because it can't collect much at all, after all, the other party's population is there. If the demons need a lot of spiritual power to do something, they should break through the defense of the coalition army and go to the surface to attack Yucheng, what kind of huge spiritual power there is in a city with a population of one million people without thinking about it. ”

"Anyway, let's find the bat's wings first. Emilina said as she suddenly reached out and grabbed the back collar of her embarrassed self, "Grit your teeth tightly, and don't make a sound." ”

Along the way, Emilina and I met a number of miscellaneous soldiers, as well as natives infected by the Death Rite, such as Bloody Hoof, who made trouble for couples at festivals, but we didn't see a single demon, as if they were all gone. In view of this obvious anomaly, the girl decides to go directly to the other party's house to find out what the hell is going on with the batwings.

I tried to stop the blonde girl from doing this, because it was too dangerous. The garrison inside the demon garrison must be very tight, and if we are discovered by the enemy, when we want to escape back to the coalition position, we will definitely be intercepted by the miscellaneous soldiers who were alarmed along the way, plus the pursuit of the bat's wings behind...... It was so bad that I couldn't have imagined it.

Of course, I didn't succeed, but it made Emilina finally give up on the idea of sneaking into the enemy base with a prop like a citrus crate, or invisibility cloak, to play a hidden dragon spy game. The girl took out the federally sponsored drone near the base and threw it into the sky, then manipulated the little thing to reconnoiter from above.

It is said to be a base, but judging from the images that came back, it seems that there are not many people. There were still no demons found inside, let alone the opposing aerial battleships, and not only that, but the giant passage that had been used to connect to the Gruul plane was gone. The entire base looked like it had been abandoned, except for the machines that made all sorts of curious crawls (if the flesh-covered thing was a machine) that continued to work, with a monster emerging from the exit every once in a while.

"Strange, could it be true that the other party has all retreated?" I couldn't help but touch the bridge of my nose and wondered, "What the hell is the demon doing?"

"Don't jump to conclusions just yet. Emilina carefully fiddled with the instrument in her hand and answered, "If you want to know if they are really evacuating or singing about the empty city, you only need to know in a simple way." ”

"Uh, what's that. Even though you seem to be speaking casually, I still have a very bad feeling in my heart because of Mao?"

"It's a delusion. The blonde girl didn't look at me, but continued to look down and fiddle with the instrument and replied categorically, "Well, anyway, you just stared at it with wide eyes......

However, the person who had a premonition of something had already rushed over in a cold sweat and desperately pressed the girl's hands: "Bridge bean sack!

"I'm going to pull my hand out of your groping trotters. ”

Unexpectedly, I had to let go of Emilina with tears streaming down my face: "Well, I'm really sorry. But can you end your daily routine here? Beauty, what kind of method are you going to use to test it?"

This time, Emilina finally regained her usual elegant and noble appearance, and said indifferently: "It's all very simple. The tower towering in the center of the base is a device used by the demons to maintain the plane's passages, and if the bat's wings have been removed, then its functions, including the alarm system, should be turned off. ”

Well, that's exactly what happened. But how is she going to trigger the alarm for testing? (To be continued......)
