Chapter 916
Ice burial under the streets is a custom here in Entrod.
In the older days of this icy land, people would place the bodies of their dead in the ice and float them down the river into the sea. It is said that after disposing of the body in this way, the soul of the deceased will find eternal rest.
Behind everyone is the ice sculpture exhibition hall, and there is no shortage of materials for placing corpses.
The lake water in Waterfall City also ends up flowing into the sea.
So in this case, the explorers naturally accepted Little Phil's request and helped her dispose of Mr. Warburgden's dead body.
On Ronald's side, he took Little Phil and started to return the same way.
Because the cult warlock they want to deal with should be hidden in a certain building in this direction.
During this time, Phil maintained a high level of alertness.
Seeing that the little guy always maintained such an attitude, Ronald couldn't help but said:
"Phil, if you feel that this ability is a big burden, then I can..."
"Mr. Ronald, I don't It's a problem!" Xiao Fei'er immediately answered Ronald's concerns and was very confident, "I feel that I have adapted well to this ability. It is not a burden." Seeing
Phil's resolute attitude, Rona Deya had no choice but to nod:
"If you insist, I won't say anything. But if there are any problems in the future, you must tell me in time. Some things are always more appropriate to be resolved as soon as possible." "Also, from now on, call me
Luo Just Nader, you don't need to be so outspoken as Mr. Phil."
Little Phil nodded obediently to show his understanding.
...
Follow the road from Falls City to the west.
The environment around Ronald and Phil changed from a relatively intact urban area to a completely broken battlefield.
And the scene at this time was even more exaggerated than when they left.
Apparently, the people who went to support the meeting place of Shitir and Raleye met again on the road, and a fight broke out immediately. The occurrence of these things continued to make the already dilapidated city even worse.
"?"
At this time, Ronald looked down.
Beside him, Phil grabbed Ronald's clothes harder.
For this child with exaggerated observation skills.
When she looked at the damaged buildings around her, she may have realized the brutality of the previous battle at the same time. So even though little Phil's consciousness has grown at an extraordinary speed, these cruel messages that followed still made Phil feel very nervous.
"Alas..."
Faced with this situation, Ronald sighed in his heart.
He is actually quite conflicted now.
On the one hand, Ronald felt that it would be very heavy for Phil to accept this news, which would bring great pressure to his heart; but on the other hand, this was also a kind of exercise for Phil. Since the child had been exposed to the mysterious If there are things on the side, then in this special period of turmoil in the future, this kind of early contact may also be a good thing.
"..."
"Ronald, it seems that the fighting people are moving outside?"
Just when Ronald was extremely entangled in his heart, Little Phil, who was walking with him, spoke again. The child found enough traces based on the remaining battlefields around him, but he was a little confused about the conclusions he drew.
After hearing Phil's words, Ronald's eyes also looked into the distance.
In his perception, what Little Phil said was correct. Whether it is the most elite combatants in the city or the larger number of ordinary warriors, they are all moving to the west of the city at this moment.
This phenomenon is easy to judge.
In fact, it was the battle between Shitil and Raleye that moved everyone's position.
As for their purpose...
Ronald didn't think this was an unintentional move during the battle, but it might be a tacit agreement the two reached unspokenly during the fight - to stay as far away from the city center as possible.
So Ronald opened his mouth and slowly told the truth:
"The leaders of both warring parties are deliberately guiding the direction of the battlefield. After all, this area of the city is probably the last safe haven for the residents of Waterfall City. If the battle is not controlled, then the entire Every city will be reduced to a pile of ruins. When that time comes, no matter which side wins the final victory, they don’t want to get only a piece of ruins."
Ronald explained the problem, but Little Phil was confused about this. Very angry:
"Obviously, they have ruined everything!"
"Why are you pretending to be gentle at this time?"
Seeing Phil's expression, Ronald walked over directly and hugged her:
"Phil, maybe their original intention It's not to destroy everything. But once the matter is directed to the solution of force, the result of causing harm to others is already destined." "..."
Ronald
is almost the only person Phil can trust now.
So after hearing this explanation, Phil didn't refute, but immediately fell into deep thought and stopped talking.
...
In this way, Ronald took Phil all the way back to the Antler Tavern.
Although he is not like this little girl, who can process all information perfectly in his mind, the [Astrolabe] spell can record the terrain and give him a map for real-time observation.
So the Antler Tavern was the centerpiece.
Ronald was silent for only a few seconds before quickly determining the block range that Phil had previously designated for him.
"This is it..."
murmuring, Ronald then began to operate the sensing range of the power of 'Rage'. He gave up observing the battle between Shitir and Raleye in the west, and instead focused his perception on the neighborhood that Phil had just designated.
This street looks like it has been reduced to rubble by the war.
In fact, there are not many people hiding.
The soldiers lying on the ground pretending to be dead, the ordinary citizens surviving in the ruins, and the innocent people hiding in the cellars under their houses... were all identified by Ronald at this moment.
There are more than a hundred survivors!
This kind of picture truly reflects people's efforts to survive in the face of crisis.
And it's near the end of the street.
Ronald noticed a larger-than-normal gathering of people.
There were more than twenty excited guys hiding under a building, and they seemed to be preparing something that would please them.
——It seems that I have found it.
Apart from the group of evil-minded cult warlocks, Nader didn't think there were many people in Waterfall City who had such a leisurely attitude.
So with Phil in his arms, Ronald immediately rushed to the other party's position.
The journey, which was not too far, was covered in the blink of an eye.
Arriving at this seemingly almost abandoned street, the surroundings were clearly visible illuminated by the flames. Just looking at the dilapidated appearance of this street, no one would have imagined that there were so many survivors hiding here.
"Are we there?"
Little Phil in Ronald's arms also raised his head.
The child's eyes swept around, and without Ronald's reminder, his eyes quickly locked on the place Ronald sensed.
"Ronald, it's over there!"
"Those cult warlocks are hiding under the building!"
