Chapter 46: The Morning of the East Wind
"Hua Wuming, you're talking about something else"
Jill looked up at the sky and complained, but the direction of the wind was beyond my control.
"I'm sorry, but the weather seems to be going downhill, and with that feeling, I think it's going to rain around noon."
At this time of year, there are many days when the west wind blows around the village of Atsuga, but when the weather turns bad, the east wind blows.
From my previous life, a low-pressure system was approaching from the west, and an east wind was blowing towards it.
We will go into the mountains to pursue the Bronze Wolf, and the Bronze Wolf is likely to be hiding in the mountains to the west, but judging from this wind direction, we are approaching from the windward direction.
"The sky is starting to get dark clouds, and it may rain soon."
After telling Jill about the weather forecast, he began to consider whether or not to continue the crusade against Leos.
I would like to propose cancellation, but it is difficult to say because this is a tripartite joint operation, and I do not belong to any of them.
"The bronze wolves are watching the village, and if things pass, they might attack, right? In that case, shouldn't we think about the safety of the village and crusade against them as soon as possible? ”
Teodoro, the leader of the rage, made a strong appeal to be pacified.
As Teodoro said, the Bronze Wolf Clan has a habit of circling around the villages they attack, and it seems that they will soon circle around Rehe.
The village was protected by knights, but if they rushed in, I don't think they would be able to stop them.
Moreover, if the Knights kill the Bronze Wolf, the adventurers will only receive a meager reward, and will not receive any wealth or honor.
From Teodoro's point of view, he may have wanted to kill it himself, or had a record of contributing to the conquest.
"But the opponent is a bronze wolf, and I want to avoid the situation getting worse"
"Now let's go up the hill, and if things look like they're going to get worse, should we turn around and go back? Once the inhabitants are harmed, it is too late. ”
While Gil was cautious about carrying out the conquest, Teodoro seems to want to do so, probably because he had the safety of the inhabitants in mind.
In response to Gil and Teodoro's opinions, Leos thought about it and came to a conclusion.
"We can go as far as we can, but if things look like they're going to get worse, we'll go back sooner. Also, considering the direction of the wind, we will go around from the north and go west. ”。 May I? ”
By the time everyone was ready to leave, the sun had already begun to rise, and the eastern sky was dyed with an eerie glow.
Before leaving, I guided Leos and the others along the route we discussed while looking at the map from the North Mountain to the West Mountain.
Start by following the stream, gradually changing direction to the west along the way.
Today, we are also guiding and scouting along the branches from the treetops, but the occasional strong wind makes the branches shake violently.
"Hua Wuming, don't go too far. If you feel dangerous, come down. ”
"Yes, it's fine, it's just that the leaves and dust are flying, and visibility is poor."
The strong easterly wind rustled the leaves, and it was hard to detect any signs.
Swaying branches and fallen leaves seem to even hide moving objects.
The wind sometimes blows on my face, so I made goggles with celestial magic and put them on so that dust doesn't get into my eyes.
As we started to make a U-turn west from the northern mountains, it started to rain.
By the time we started to climb along the stream, it was already starting to lighten, but it seemed to be getting dark again.
Unsurprisingly, it was too windy, so I got down from the trees and lined up next to Sergio.
After confirming that he had landed on the ground, Reios looked up at the sky and decided to stop the crusade for the time being.
"Jill! Teodoro! Let's go back. ”
"Mr. Leus, let's do a little more, let's do a little more."
"Teodoro, this wind makes it difficult to use fire-based magic.
"Isn't it dangerous to carry it down the mountain, though? Hearing Teodoro's suggestion, Leos turned his gaze to me. "How is it, Hua Wuming. Is visibility better in the western mountains than here? ” "Yes. The view would be a little better if you go around the ridge in front but not so much. ” "Well, let's go to the end of the ridge and go back to the village. Okay, Teodoro. " The committee members, who were about to reassemble, distanced themselves and began to search. If I came down from a tree, the bushes would block my path, and I was short so I couldn't see clearly. Just in case, he was equipped with a full set of Heavenly Attribute Armor, but his body stiffened, and he didn't know when the Bronze Wolf would attack him. After all, it might be better to look at it from above, even if it's just with the steps, that's what I think. "Quack, ahhhh A scream came from the direction of the board member on the right. "Let's go, Hua Wuming!" I began to chase Sergio, whose goal was to find a place where the line of fire could be secured, but the bushes blocked my way and I couldn't see the situation at all. "Come here!" Sergio, who was running around, stopped, so when I ran to the tree behind him to check on the situation, the number of people on the board seemed to have decreased. "Hua Wuming, find a vacancy, and then set it up!" "Yes!" Last night, on my way home after a strategy session, I came up with a couple of strategies. The bronze wolf tried to swing its front legs down to act as a shield, so it resorted to the first strategy. "Airbags!" Between the bronze wolf and the shield, a large bag made of thick and flexible material with multiple pores was placed. This blow of the bronze wolf lost its power, accompanied by the sound of air release. "Rubber rings!" A thick ring is made of rubber-like material and is used to hold the neck and body of the bronze wolf. The bronze wolf felt something strange on his neck and went berserk, but was pulled back to its original position by the elasticity of the eraser. "What's wrong? Hua Wuming, are you doing it? ” "I'll explain later. Please do so. ” "Leave it to me! Homecoming Arrow! ” Sergio's arrow was shot in the wrong direction, but halfway through, it made a large arc and stabbed the bronze wolf from behind. "Goo!" The bronze wolf jerked up, but was pulled back to its original position by the force of the rubber band. "It seems that the escape strategy is going well." I guess if I keep increasing the depth of my attacks, but the angry guys aren't moving from where they are. Instead, Teodoro seems to be holding back members who try to move. "Mr. Serujo, angry fellows" "Leave them alone, concentrate on subduing them!" "Yes!" I told him about my anger, but Sergio just looked at him and then looked back again. Alternatively, the situation may have been factored into their predictions. Near the Bronze Wolf, Leos and Gil were attacking on the flanks, but couldn't get close at all due to their thick legs swinging around. "Lance Burner!" "Woo woo" I installed a spear diagonally behind the right flank and burned the area around Sergio's left eye, which had been shattered by an arrow, with a burner. The bronze wolf bleeds and makes a painful sound. "It works!" "Here's your chance, strike!" This time, I put the spear on the opposite side and burned the right side of my face, but the bronze wolf just shook his head and didn't make much movement. "It seems that your learning ability is even higher than I thought." It was pouring rain, and the power of the attacker's fire-type magic had weakened, but the crusade could not be interrupted. Even so, Leos and Gil's attacks passed, and the Bronze Wolves began to bleed everywhere. "Take another breath!" "I'm going to push you all at once!" Seeing that we had the upper hand, the angry guys approached. Their motive must be to minimize losses and end with only something tasty. I didn't want to give the credit to Teodoro, so just as I was about to launch a preparatory attack, the bronze wolf suddenly fell to the ground. Thinking that he finally ran out of strength, the moment the attacker cheered, the bronze wolf jumped violently. The rubber ring exceeded the limit of strength and was torn off, and the bronze wolf leaped over the heads of Gad and the other shieldmen. "Quack, quack!" The bronze wolf bars its fangs at the furious member of the landing site.
