Chapter 9: The Scream in the Forest [Please read]
When Rebecca Miri escaped.
Sophie, the heart-peeling succubus who was slaughtering adventurers wantonly at the gate of the farm, also seemed to feel it.
She just flicked the thorn whip, and an adventurer who was strangled by the neck lost his head.
After retracting the spiked whip that looked like a bright red poisonous snake, the blood stained on it began to slip off drop by drop.
Sophie slowly closed her eyes.
When she opened her eyes again, she had vaguely locked onto the location of the demon species.
This kind of induction has a distance limit. If the opponent carries the demon seed and escapes too far, she will completely lose the induction.
When she was about to flutter her wings and leave, chasing after him herself.
Among the adventurers being surrounded and killed in front, there was an iron-fisted dwarf warrior holding a sledgehammer who was furious.
He drank the magic potion mixed with fire liquor and entered a state of ability called [Drunk to Death].
His strength, speed and reflexes were greatly enhanced, and he actually broke through the encirclement formed by the Night Shadow Wolf and Goblin, and rushed straight towards the Heart-Flayering Succubus Sophie!
In just a split second, Sophie, who had just gained some lift, saw the dwarf leaping high and the rough black iron hammer hitting her head on.
Such a powerful and heavy attack caused the hammer head to stir up air currents.
The orange flame magic element is attached to it, making the power of this blow even more amazing.
Even Sophie didn’t dare to resist rashly!
Through specific means, the iron fist dwarf warrior in front of him launched a cross-level attack.
In desperation, she could only temporarily give up the idea of pursuing it personally.
Whispering softly, a rotating black magic circle appeared in front of the scaly-clawed arm.
This magic circle turned into a magic shield, blocking it in front of him.
Everything happens in the blink of an eye.
"Bang!"
"Bang!"
The huge hammer hit the dark magic circle.
The flame magic element and impact force collided with it hard.
The moment the collision occurred, the space seemed to freeze.
Then the surging orange light surged out like a storm.
Sophie, who was holding a magic shield to resist, was knocked into the ground by this blow.
The body sank dozens of centimeters.
The magic shield also shattered in the next second, turning into dark magic light spots and disappearing.
However, the brave Iron Fist dwarf warrior was also knocked away by the aftermath of the counterattack.
Immediately, the Night Shadow Wolf pounced on him, but was quickly hammered into a ball of flesh and blood.
Sophie's scaly arm was cracked, and a small amount of dark blood spattered out.
Affected by this, she found it difficult to leave and had to deal with the dwarf herself.
Otherwise, the night shadow wolves and goblins at the front will be wiped out in a short time, and most adventurers will be able to break through.
In fact, the adventurers' attempt to fight back and find a chance to escape was simply a luxury.
The succubus has already arranged for a night shadow wolf with a keen sense of smell to be responsible for the dormant pursuit.
Strive to ensure that no one can escape to the city of Magtan.
Of course, she was not afraid, but she had another crucial plan regarding this small town.
It won't be long before the city of Magtan will become a burning ruin like this farm.
The cave she was in was originally a dark chess game with camouflage.
It was just by chance that a daring adventurer stole a demon seed, which made the situation in the cave unstable and possibly even downgraded, thus affecting the number of monsters emerging from each Double Sun.
If the high-ranking big shots blame her, Sophie will definitely be punished unfavorably by the guards!
She shuddered every time she thought of the horrific scene and the punishment process.
That kind of pain can no longer be described as masochism, it is simply indescribable punishment.
Both aspects of the problem cannot be ignored.
So Sophie decided to kill the dwarf warrior first to consolidate the battle situation surrounding the adventurers.
At the same time, he sent his men to chase the demon seed carrier!
All thinking is done in the blink of an eye.
The Heart-Flayering Succubus Sophie stood up from the ground, first blew a whistle with a strange tone, and then waved her thorn whip towards the Iron Fist Dwarf.
This whistle carries a command that only a monster can decipher.
Four wandering night shadow wolves came to the four goblin warriors and knelt down.
These goblin warriors turned over and turned into howling night shadow wolf cavalry, and launched a pursuit in the direction from which they came.
Nightshade wolves are extremely fast, have a sense of smell better than that of hounds, and are natural trackers.
At the very least, they can find and catch up to the target, and use attacks to contain them until Sophie arrives in person.
The adventurers on the scene no longer care about this detail.
Because this ruthless killing feast is coming to an end.
...
The conflict at Chloë Leon’s farm, from the time before the false night arrives to the hibernating gathering of monsters after dark.
Nearly two hours had passed until the Night Shadow Wolf Cavalry launched the pursuit.
For the adventurers who are in it, it is no less than falling from the human world to hell.
But for Chen Xuan, who was hurriedly walking in the forest, it was just part of the arduous journey in the forest.
The drone he flew before setting off captured the firelight and smoke in the sparse zone to the east.
Basically, it can be confirmed that there are settlements of certain ethnic groups.
I can’t guarantee that it must be a human settlement, but it must be a race with certain intelligence.
After all, this is a different world, and maybe humans are not the only protagonists in this world.
Now that he has mastered the lingua franca of Naroa continent, it is natural that he must take a closer look and evaluate whether harmonious communication is possible.
And he estimated the distance again from the image.
By visual inspection, we can approach the edge of the sparse belt area in at most three or four kilometers.
In such a situation, how can we not work hard and move forward courageously?
Along the way, he drank a bottle of energy drink and didn't stop to rest once.
But more than an hour after setting off, the big sun completely set in the west, and the light became increasingly dimmer.
The three moons became even brighter.
And he was less than one kilometer away from the sparse zone.
Just when he stopped and was about to try using his [Insight] ability to see if he could interpret the moon.
Suddenly there was a louder howl and roar from the direction he was heading forward, which made his skin crawl.
To be conservative, he did not move forward. Instead, he found a nearby open area and flew a drone for detection.
This step-by-step approach is his principle for exploring other worlds.
You only have one life, and you can't live it again if you die.
This time, he saw the river one kilometer away through images taken by a drone.
There are also settlements burning with raging fires.
He found wooden walls and cabins, but he wasn't sure it was a farm.
This stop and investigation took more than twenty minutes.
Occasionally, high-pitched cries echoed in the half-lit air.
Apparently, that settlement was in trouble!
When he put away the drone and prepared to use [Time Suspension] and [Cross-border] to quietly approach and observe.
There was a burst of rapid and chaotic footsteps in the dense trees more than a hundred meters in front of me!
Then there was a sound similar to a wolf dog running, sticking out its tongue and panting.
This made Chen Xuan excited and he was about to run away [cross-border].
Suddenly a cry of surprise was heard.
"No...ah!"
And this was a voice made in the common language of Naroa!
