Confusion, surprise, fear and expectation, all kinds of complex emotions appeared in the hearts of everyone on the patrol, including the magicians, because the scene that happened in front of them was beyond their horizons, and they were completely unable to understand how this happened.
of.
"Probably not. Wild beasts don't kill each other."
"So what are these powerful creatures?"
"There's no point in guessing. If you want to know the answer, wouldn't you just ask Fenrir?"
"Of course it's good, but who will go?" Soma spoke, staring at the proposed magic user, "How about you go."
"Captain, please stop joking. My small body is not big enough for those monsters to swallow in one gulp. Captain, you are the strongest, so you go ahead!" The divine machine user who proposed to directly question Muria said with a smile.
At this time, Muria was surrounded by hundreds of giant dragons, and among these dragons, even the smallest one seemed to be able to destroy their entire patrol force with just a move of its claws.
"My lifelong pursuit is to die in battle with wild beasts." Soma, who was forcibly given the aura of the protagonist by the world, spoke up. He was also afraid of these giant dragons.
He had already seen the terrifying fighting power of the giant dragons. The first red dragon that came out, which seemed to be the strongest dragon, just hovered in the air for a while and killed all the wild beasts in this area.
After the massacre was complete, the area was cleared immediately.
This kind of destructive power has exceeded his understanding. In his knowledge, it seems that no divine machine user can possess this kind of combat power. In other words, this is a being that humans cannot deal with at all.
.
However, the patrol force did not dare to go to Muria because of the dragon's deterrence. Muria would not leave them there. These humans were still useful.
"Okay, please be honest." Muria scolded the dragons around them who were in a mess and could be said to have no order.
Because of their astonishingly high average individual strength, giant dragons generally find it difficult to coordinate operations. It is almost impossible to expect them to enforce orders and prohibitions like an army.
Of course, the dragons under Muria's command can still fight together when facing powerful enemies. On formal occasions, they can also put up good formations that will shock the eyes of onlookers.
Therefore, even the evil dragons under Muria's command were more or less disciplined, so after hearing his scolding, these dragons who were all playing their own roles calmed down and lowered their heads, looking at Muria's tiny
body, waiting for his orders.
Walking through the ruins burning with flames everywhere, Muria came to the confused but expectant armored troops, and met the dozen or so divine envoys who had gathered together and looked at him with vigilant eyes.
"Fenrir, can you explain what's going on?" Muria took the initiative to come to them. Soma, the leader of the team, spoke. At this time, he was the only person most suitable to ask.
"As you can see, these are my retinue."
"Well, what does family mean?" A female neurologist asked cautiously.
"Servants, servants, subordinates... dependents are similar existences. You can understand it this way, but the difference is that dependents will never betray."
"In this case, can I understand that I can order these powerful beings at will and let them do anything?"
"Absolutely. However, I asked them to fight against a powerful enemy that cannot be defeated. I guess they are still reluctant."
Muria thought for a moment and then answered seriously.
"In other words, these existences appear here because of you, Fenrir. So, I would like to ask, who are you? Or, what kind of existence are you?"
Soma stared at Muria, and when he asked this question, his palms clenched tightly involuntarily.
These powerful monsters were summoned by the young man in front of him who seemed to be no different from anyone else, and he bowed to them. In this case, if he didn't know how to treat them seriously, then he would be an idiot.
"My existence is beyond your understanding. But you can call me your savior!"
Muria, who no longer wanted to hide it, directly admitted her inhuman identity, and also stated the purpose of her coming here.
"Savior?" The humans who heard Muria's answer all looked at each other. This was an answer that was completely beyond their expectations.
"This... I don't quite understand what you mean." Soma, who was also in a state of confusion, calmed down for a while, and then responded cautiously. At the same time, a flame was ignited in his heart, a flame called hope.
.
"Don't think too much, it means literally. The purpose of my coming here is to save your world that is about to be destroyed." Muria replied with a gentle smile. He knew that what he had brought to the humans in front of him was
The impact was really too great.
If he didn't have more than a hundred dragons as a background, Muria estimated that the moment he said that he was the savior, he would probably be sent to the mental health room in the base by the divine agents in front of him.
.
After all, in this desperate and depressing world, many of the divine machine users who fight day after day suffer from mental breakdown due to the huge pressure.
"Oh, no, let me correct it. Saving your world can only be regarded as my second purpose."
Muria added that he no longer expects to obtain source power by saving this world eroded by evil gods, because this world is too poor in a sense, allowing it to separate a drop of source power from
Destroying it directly makes no difference.
"Then what is your main purpose?" Soma had already used honorifics unknowingly. This is the instinctive awe of the weak towards the strong, no matter which world it is placed in.
"Don't be nervous. I don't have any bad intentions towards you or your world. I'm here to find the owner of the monster you call a wild beast."
"The master of the desolate beast?" The humans who heard Muria's words were confused again. For the first time, they knew that the desolate beast that had forced them to the point of barely surviving actually had an owner.
Subconsciously, no one questioned the authenticity of Muria's words, because the unknown existence in front of them had no need to deceive them.
"You can call him the Evil God of the Void, a being who destroys and devours the world and becomes more powerful. These wild beasts are his dependents."
"Evil God!" Just hearing Muria's simple description, Soma felt his body and mind trembling involuntarily.
Therefore, it was a desolate beast that already made them exhausted. He could not imagine that there was a being above it that could drive them. How to defeat such a being?
Thinking of this, Soma's eyes couldn't help but look at Muria. This existence had just made it very clear that he came here for the sake of the evil god who wanted to destroy their world.
"Don't worry, this is my enemy. You don't need to pay attention to it. Just treat him as if he doesn't exist."
Muria's smile became even gentler when she saw the human beings who were trembling with fear after he revealed just a little bit of information!
"What can we do?" A young wizard asked cautiously.
"You just need to cooperate with my followers to eliminate the wild beasts in the world."
"What's the use of this? Will it affect your battle with that evil god?"
"No." Muria answered their question with a smile on her face, "However, your actions can attract the evil god to me faster."
"Um, you mean that evil god is not in the world?"
"Of course not. If he comes to your world, your world will almost be destroyed."
"Then let's..." After hearing Muria's words, several divine agents suddenly showed hesitation in their eyes.
"Don't take chances or have any other expectations about the evil god who will destroy the world. It's just a matter of sooner or later when the evil god comes."
As if he could read people's minds, Muria clearly saw what these divine agents were thinking.
"Even if you don't kill the wild beasts, when the wild beasts destroy your world to a certain extent, the evil god will still come."
"Then there's no other choice?"
"We have reached this point, what else do you expect?" Muria raised an eyebrow, "I have already said that I am the savior of your world. My battle with the evil god will determine the future of your world. I lost.
If I win, your world will end. If I win, your world will continue and you will have the opportunity to rebuild civilization."
…
"Captain Soma, do you think what Fenrir said is true? The evil god of the void who wants to destroy our world, and the savior and so on."
In the convoy that had begun to return to the base, on an armored vehicle, a divine machine user asked the most experienced and eldest Soma.
"As much as I want to deny it, look at those powerful creatures called dragons above our heads."
Soma looked up at the sky. Above the heads of their motorcade, hundreds of majestic and elegant creatures were flying in the sky.
"How do you ask me to veto what the being disguised as Fenrir said?"
"He might be deceiving us."
"What's the point of deceiving us for such an existence? Any one of these dependents he summoned can wipe out all of us. To him, we are probably no different from the dust floating in the atmosphere."
"So is it true that he said he would help us transform the divine machine?"
"Assuming that everything this being said is true, he is on the same level as the evil god who wants to destroy our world, so it should be true."
