Immediately afterwards, more and more people fell, but the strange thing is that the others turned a deaf ear to the fallen people, as if they only had baked cakes in their eyes, and they began to feast as soon as they bought them, and the same fate awaited them.

Just as Emile was nervous about this, Cosette on the side also noticed, and she quickly spit out all the baked cakes she had just eaten.

When the emir saw her move, he couldn't help but freeze in place.

"Good fellow, can you still spit out what you eat?"

"Haha, it's really strange that you're focusing on it, this is the usual operation of elves, you can also try to control the stomach with your mind."

The emir did so immediately, and as his stomach squirmed, he vomited out all the food he had gobbled up just now.

"Damn, I just want to eat something, why do I always have all kinds of messes."

Emir's stomach cried again in protest, and he sat down on the ground with his legs limp.

Cosette looked frustrated, hesitated for a moment, and handed the kettle to him.

"Here, take a sip, it should relieve hunger."

"But what do you do?"

"Stupid, let you drink it, what do I do?" Cosette pursed her lips.

"No, no, no." The emir swallowed a mouthful of saliva, then hurriedly waved his hand.

It's not that he's polite, it's that he's been psychologically shadowed by Cosette's atavism before, and if the Elven Fountain isn't enough, he might turn the royal capital upside down when he arrives at his destination.

"......" Cosette wanted to continue to persuade, but finally sighed, "Okay, whatever you want." ”

Later, Ophelia returned, and she was biting on the pancakes, looking contented.

When Emile saw her like this, he couldn't help but think that sure enough, knights were really hungry like normal people, but he reacted immediately.

"Ophelia, vomit it out, didn't you see those people fall down after eating the pancakes?"

"Huh?" Ophelia looked confused, and when she glanced back at the group, she finally understood that something was wrong.

Later, she followed Cosette's instructions and spit out the food.

"I'm sorry," Ophelia said embarrassedly, "I'm a little hungry, so I didn't notice anything wrong for a while. ”

"Huh? I thought you had been patient. The emir was slightly surprised.

"It seems that you have a deep misunderstanding of me, how can you endure such a thing as hunger." Ophelia scratched her head.

At this time, Cosette took out the kettle again.

"Take a sip, at least until we reach our destination."

Ophelia silently took the kettle, but turned her gaze to Emir.

"Emir, you drink first, there may be a battle next, and it is up to you at the critical moment."

"That's right," Cosette chimed in, "I know you're worried about my atavism, but as I said before, I don't have seizures when I'm asleep, it's a big deal that the Fountain of Elves runs out, and I'll just be asleep in the Holy Sword." ”

After such a reminder, the emir also remembered.

Indeed, if he faints from hunger at a critical moment, it may cause all three of them to be planted here, let alone go to the royal capital.

So, he no longer hesitated, and took a big sip of the spirit spring of the kettle.

"Hey, don't drink that much." Cosette was in a hurry.

"But didn't you say you could sleep?" The emir looked puzzled.

“…… Alas, okay, okay, I won't bother with you. Cosette smiled wryly, snatched the kettle, and handed it to Ophelia.

After drinking the Fountain of the Elves, Emir was immediately refreshed, and he began to focus his attention on the luxurious carriage that sold the baked cakes.

He had seen the stalls selling baked cakes in the market, which were basically run by ordinary people, after all, the nobles who had a little property went to run the restaurant, so looking at the carriage, he knew that the shopkeeper would definitely not be a commoner, but the nobles would not sell baked cakes.

The emir considered going to the carriage to see it himself, but there was such a strange sight before him that he did not dare to act rashly, so he could only ask Ophelia.

"Hmm......"

Ophelia recalled carefully, but couldn't remember anything, although it had only been a few minutes, she was in a state of confusion just now, and naturally she didn't pay too much attention to the shopkeeper's appearance.

During the time they watched, more than 100 people fell to the ground because they had eaten the baked cakes, and they did not know whether they were dead or alive.

Although the emir was willing to rescue those people, he was also unable to protect himself, so he had no way to draw his sword to help.

However, he could summon Lilith and leave the place directly, but he stood there for a long time without realizing it, and Ophelia and Cosette were unaware of their problem.

"Gee, why are we standing here stupidly." Cosette was an afterthought.

"That'...... Let's go and try to get to our destination by tonight. Ophelia suggested, but she couldn't take her eyes off the men.

The emir knew that he could not escape, he really had nothing to do with these people, but since he had encountered it, how could he stand idly by? That's not his style, and he can still do something.

"Ophelia, it's enough for us to do our part, and don't feel guilty if we fail." The emir said earnestly.

"Well, of course." Ophelia nodded.

"Haha," Cosette couldn't help but laugh when she heard the two of them, "you two are really the same kind of people." ”

"Leave that aside, Your Highness Cosette," the Emir stared at her, "what is your opinion?" ”

"Well, you've both decided, the minority obeys the majority, what else can I say?" Cosette spread her hands.

At this point, the Emir no longer hesitated, he immediately summoned Lilith, and then made her spit out a dragon's breath towards the carriage.

The men were all lying five or six meters away from the wagon, and the flames could not hurt them.

Immediately afterward, the shopkeeper seemed to sense the attack, and the carriage began to shake violently, unexpectedly avoiding the dragon's breath, and then a large number of baked cakes were scattered all over the ground.

And the next scene made everyone dumbfounded, only to see that after those baked cakes fell to the ground, they all turned into some kind of creature, and when they looked closely, they found that they were toads.

"Phew!" Cosette suddenly looked disgusted, "Oh my God, this is disgusting! ”

After all, she had eaten these things, and when she looked down, she saw that the residue of the baked cake that had just spit on the ground had turned into the body tissue of a toad, and she wanted to vomit even more.

The emir was quite calm, and he kept his eyes on the carriage without blinking, and he always felt that there was something more terrible in it.

In fact, he used magic perception at the beginning, but the result was that there was no trace of magic in the carriage, so it shouldn't be a monster, of course, even if it was, it would only be a very weak monster.

However, the strength of the enemy has nothing to do with whether it is terrifying or not, after all, Cosette has such great strength, but he can also be numb by a few toads.

After the carriage shook for a while, the shape suddenly began to twist, and soon became something else.

It roughly looks like a plant, as tall as a floor, with thick rhizomes and dark purple overall, surrounded by a large number of slender vines, countless slender green leaves clustered around the giant bud in the middle, and what emerges from the bud is a large mouth with jagged teeth, a fishy smell from the mouth, and disgusting mucus constantly falling to the ground, which is obviously corrosive.

Emile had seen this kind of thing in the storybook left by his father, it was a half-animal, half-plant existence, their roots could move when pulled out of the soil, and they were carnivorous, they would first use what the prey wanted most as bait, of course, it was made of messy things, and when the prey ate ate the bait and fainted, it would be tied up by vines, and then thrown into the mouth and chewed with sharp teeth.

Emir originally thought it was just a storybook fabrication, but he didn't expect to see it here, it is said that this is not a real monster, but a creation of some evil magician, but unfortunately it eventually got out of control, and the magician was also eaten by his own creation.

Since then, all magical creations have escaped, and they can even reproduce and rightfully become a new species on the continent.

"It turned out to be a sawtooth flower."

"Oh? Does Her Highness Cosette know each other? The emir was slightly surprised.

"Of course, this is a species created by our elves." Cosette said with some pride.

"What?" The emir was dumbfounded.

"Oh, don't be so surprised," Cosette explained, "this thing is created as food, just like the domesticated domestic animals of humans, and you know that we elves have always been short of supplies, and this thing can search for food everywhere, and eventually it will consciously return to its master, and when they grow fat, we will kill and eat them, but to be honest, it tastes disgusting, but we can't help it, we have to swallow it in order to survive." ”

"I see."

The emir nodded, and he immediately understood why it didn't taste good, after all, who knows what they ran out to eat, and maybe even ate people......

He didn't dare to think about it any longer, so he got back to business and told Lilith to quickly destroy the sawtooth flower.

Lilith spat out dragon breath again, only to pull the roots out of the soil this time and dodge the attack with her nimble movement.

Unconvinced, Lilith kept spitting out flames, but for some reason, the huge sawtooth flower was so flexible that it couldn't burn at all.

Not only that, but it tied up the men while dodging, perhaps thinking that it was in danger, and instead of eating its prey immediately, it hung on it with the help of vines.

The emir didn't want to entangle with it any longer, so he released the water prison, but it still didn't work, and the sawtooth flower collected everyone and ran away.

Seeing that it was about to disappear, and the Emir's magic could no longer be beaten, he hurried to Cosette for help.

"Your Highness, please help."

Ophelia, however, was the first to strike, and she followed closely behind the sawtooth flower, running farther and farther along the avenue of the prairie.

Eventually, he unleashed his sword skills at the right distance, and the powerful shockwave hit the target at once, and the sawtooth flower fell to the ground with a stumble.

"Look, sure enough, the battle will depend on Ophelia." Cosette said, spreading her hands.

"Huh."

Emir shook his head with a wry smile, and walked slowly towards Ophelia.

The sawtooth flower that fell to the ground tried to escape, but unfortunately, the slender vines and roots were entangled after it fell just now, and no matter how hard it struggled, it was to no avail.

Subsequently, the emir arrived and did not hesitate to give it the final blow.

While waiting for the people to wake up, he looked at the sawtooth flower that had been dismantled and couldn't help but think of a good idea.

"Your Highness Cosette, did you just say that this thing can be used as food?"
