Sigrid and Lulutis were looking for traces of Lu Yu in the thick fog.
The unknown monster that suddenly appeared rushed away and drove them away for a long distance. Although they finally managed to hide in a tree hole and evade the monster's pursuit, when they came back to their senses, they were surrounded by thick smoke.
The fog is thick.
At first, they wanted to follow the monster's footprints to find Lu Yu's location, but they never expected that the heavy fog suddenly rang out with the sounds of fighting and explosions caused by magic.
Recalling the scene they saw last night, Lulutis and Sigrid unanimously decided not to show their heads.
The cavalry and adventurers are fighting in the wild. No one can understand the situation. If you show up rashly, you will only get involved.
After a long time, the sound of fighting gradually disappeared, and the surroundings returned to silence.
Lulutis hung on Sigrid's shoulder to help observe the rear, acting as the eyes from behind.
The two of them carefully avoided the location where the fighting sound came from, and slowly searched for the footprints of the monster in the fog.
"Tap...tap..."
Slow footsteps sounded from the side.
Sigrid turned her head and looked around, only to see a scarred cavalry lying on the horse, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
The horse was panting heavily, with beads of sweat on its body. There were several stab wounds on its hind legs. Although they were not fatal, they were still bleeding.
Seeing Sigrid, the horse wanted to speed up and escape, but was exhausted. He only rushed a short distance before being knocked down by the thick roots of the tree and fell to the ground.
The cavalryman on horseback suddenly fell down and shouted in pain, as if he was awakened from a coma of exhaustion.
Lulutis, who didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but couldn't help but die, sighed and pointed in the direction of the cavalry.
As Sigrid approached, the cavalryman suddenly drew his sword and stared at her fiercely.
"Here, apply some healing potion on you and your horse. It should relieve some pain." Sigrid said, "You are exhausted now. If I want to kill you, I only need to punch you. Give me an excuse."
I don't even bother to do what you did to me and secretly poison you."
The cavalry gritted his teeth, picked up the potion, licked it with his tongue, and applied it to the wound as if he was dead.
Although Sigrid knew that this was a person's normal vigilance, she was still a little unhappy when her master's goodwill was questioned.
"Don't even say a word of thanks. Forget it, just tell me where the human settlements are nearby."
The medicine eased the pain of the cavalryman, and his expression finally no longer looked ferocious.
"You are foreign travelers, right? Can you escort me back to Suna City? I have important news to report to the lord... Don't worry, this is a commission. I will give you a reward when you arrive."
After learning that there was a human gathering place nearby, Sigrid and Lulutis wanted to go, but their primary goal at the moment was to find Lu Yu.
"I can agree, but we must first go to the place where we were separated just now to see if Lu Yu is there."
Sigrid's head was buzzing, and the noise directly distorted Lulutis's words into the mechanical sound of the model. Fortunately, it was in place.
The cavalry also agreed to Sigrid's request and rested for a while. After the medicine took full effect, the cavalry led the horse to open the way ahead.
The monster's footprints were very obvious, and not long after, Sigrid saw the pile of fallen trees not far away.
After traveling a long distance, the injured cavalry had no strength to help Sigrid find someone, so he leaned on a tree stump to rest.
Sigrid, on the other hand, excitedly called for her master, but after calling for a long time, she received no response.
She wandered around the area and climbed to higher places to search, but could not see the shadow of her master.
"If you really can't find it, I suggest you leave here first, go to Suna City, and then ask someone to come and look for it. It's almost dark, and there's such a heavy fog, so it's definitely not a wise choice to spend the night here."
"You just want to deliver the letter quickly." Sigrid did not intend to leave.
"I'm thinking about safety. You are not locals. You probably don't know that monsters are particularly active in this area at night when it's foggy. I don't want to be torn apart by the monsters brought out by the fog demon... If you don't leave, I will leave too."
With that said, the cavalryman who struggled to get up got on his horse.
Lulutis, who was floating around nearby, looked at the area with suspicion.
"Lu Yu has no appetite at noon?"
She glanced at the cavalry in the distance, then sneaked behind Sigrid and motioned for her to follow the cavalry and leave here.
"That's right. You can find a companion if you want, but not at night." The cavalryman advised earnestly, "As long as you get to the lord, you will definitely get help from the lord in rescuing me. Our lord is a
He’s a nice person, and it’s just a reward for finding someone for you.”
Sigrid whispered in a low voice: "Lord Lulutis, is it really okay if we don't find the master..."
Lulutis wanted to explain something, but when the words came to her lips, she changed her mind.
"Don't worry, let's take a look at Suna City and the Lord's Mansion first."
In the thick fog, Lu Yu was still moving forward with Daphne's team.
Lu Yu wanted to ask about the cavalry he saw last night being chased by adventurers, but in the end he gave up.
He couldn't be sure whether this group of people was one of the group of adventurers.
Besides, even if they have nothing to do with the adventurers last night, if the cavalry is really from Suna City and has been killed, and he doesn’t know who the adventurers who chased the cavalry are, then his words
If you go out, won't the adventurers in the dark be watching you?
Silence is the safest option.
In the wilderness filled with thick fog, Daphne's team became more and more careful as they walked. Judging from their always-on-guard attitude, it was clear that dealing with the mist demon's surprise attack was a necessary skill for adventurers who wanted to make a living here.
"careful!"
One of the team members on guard from the side was suddenly grabbed by the hand protruding from the thick fog. The team member who issued the warning rushed forward, drew out the saber inlaid with sapphires, raised the knife with his hand, and chopped off the pale withered hands.
break.
The withered hands turned into mist and dissipated, leaving no trace behind.
Daphne frowned: "Alert, the mist demon has appeared."
"Damn it, it's such a thick fog. These ghosts are actually catching up with us. We're almost within the territory of Suna City. Hey, talk to Mark!"
The speaker screamed in horror: "Mark!"
Lu Yu turned his head and saw that the team member on his left was grabbed by the throat with a pair of hands stretched out from the thick fog. He was unable to reply at all.
By the time other team members helped disperse the hands, Mark's abdomen was already bleeding profusely, and the dense claw marks almost tore his stomach.
Mark was in so much pain that he couldn't even speak. He just kept inhaling and clutched his long bow with exquisite shape and gorgeous lines in his hand.
Lu Yu glanced at the adventurer identification plate on Mark's body, which was made of stainless steel.
Daphne raised the staff in her hand, and the bright light briefly pushed back the thick fog from all sides, and the pairs of pale hands quickly evaporated under the light.
This is not a simple flash spell, but a magic mixed with fire attributes.
For a moment, Lu Yu had already seen the outlines of the monsters in the thick fog.
Their body shapes are constantly changing, as if they are uncertain entities. One second they are monsters as huge as mountains, and the next second they are transformed into octopus monsters that can float on the land.
This should be the monster formed by the fog demon condensed with magic power, but where is the fog demon?
In order to give the team members time to reorganize their formation and adjust their equipment, Daphne continued to release powerful fire and light magic.
"Lu Yu, aren't you a magician? Please help me. If these people are allowed to swarm us, no one will be able to leave here."
Daphne seemed to have misunderstood that Lu Yu was conserving his strength and was preparing to run away alone.
"I'm already helping. It takes time for me to summon things."
"By the way, Daphne, are you nobles?"
"Are you kidding? As you can see, we are all ordinary adventurers."
Drawing and description are in progress.
While talking, because Daphne's magic power was consumed too quickly, the mist gradually poured into everyone.
Before the injured Mark could be dragged to a safe area, he and his two companions were bitten by a bloody mouth that suddenly stretched out from the fog. The three men only had time to shout for help before disappearing into the thick fog.
among.
The girl who had warned Lu Yu earlier had just dodged a pair of hands stretched out from the mist when a person suddenly walked out of the mist.
"mark?"
Before Daphne had time to remind her, Mark suddenly turned into a ball of mist and wrapped around the girl's neck.
It was like there was a transparent rope. With a strong force, the girl was quickly dragged and flew into the thick fog.
Seeing this scene, Lu Yu had no expression on his face.
The drawing is complete.
The description is complete.
The initial consideration has been paid.
The moment the summoning ceremony was successful, a beam of light appeared on the ground.
In the light, a white giant full of mechanical feeling stands on the earth.
Lu Yu looked at the thing he had wanted to summon since he came to this world, and took a few more greedy glances.
Then, he took out his dagger and added fire attribute to it.
Daphne shouted happily: "Is the summon coming? Hurry up and use it to dispel..."
"laugh."
The dagger stabbed directly into Daphne's heart. Lu Yu stared into Daphne's blue eyes, exerted force on his hand, and twisted it hard.
"You..." Daphne looked at Lu Yu in horror. The fire magic on the dagger was destroying her heart and igniting her body.
