Yuexing quickly walked into the mansion, and there were several corpses scattered in the hall facing the door.
Walking up the stairs, I saw several corpses in the corridor as well.
"It should have been caused when Ram came out of the house." Yuexing took a brief look at the layout of the corpse and concluded.
The existence of the Forbidden Library cannot be felt in the corridor, which means that Beatrice is not in the room at this time, so she may be staying with Emilia.
When I walked into the butler's office of the mansion, there was no one around. There was no trace of panic in the uninhabited room, and the tables and furniture were the same as those I had seen before.
A strong sense of disobedience filled the whole room. Yuexing frowned and looked around carefully.
The bookshelf against the wall slid sideways greatly, and a dark passage suddenly opened behind it, and a spiral staircase could be seen inside leading to the downstairs.
"Emergency exit? No, it should be more than this..."
A cool breeze blew through the dark passage, which seemed to lead to a very deep place.
Feeling vaguely uneasy in her heart, Yuexing entered the passage with a frown.
The surrounding walls were filled with coldness as soon as they touched them. There was a faint blue glow that could ensure the view of the feet a few meters in front. Relying on the light, Yuexing walked forward slowly.
After a while, the palm that was originally leaning against the wall suddenly lost its grip on the wall and touched the air.
"Huh? Is it the end?"
Yuexing came to a space larger than the passage
The space is even narrower than the living room, with several pillars erected at irregular intervals.
After bypassing the pillars blocking the road, I suddenly discovered that they were icicles with frozen shadows inside.
"Pursuing soldiers? Was this all done by Emilia? Or... Parker?" Yuexing thought in confusion.
Just thinking about it, I want to reach out and touch the icicles
Suddenly I felt that the crisis was coming quickly along the direction of the passage.
"Wind Shield"
collapse!--
The technique opened instantly, and with a loud noise, Yuexing suddenly held his chest, and blood began to flow from the corners of his mouth.
The objects that attacked also revealed their true colors.
A huge diamond-shaped ice cube, the edges and corners of which reflect the cold light
The air suddenly cooled down, and cold air continued to come from the door in front of me, which was covered with extremely thick frost.
"This level of magic? Who is it, Emilia or Parker?" Yuexing shouted towards the door.
There was no response, only Yuexing's voice kept echoing in the passage
The air was getting colder and colder, and Yuexing felt that her body was starting to become numb.
The sense of crisis became stronger and stronger. Yuexing looked around cautiously, but his consciousness became increasingly blurred.
Suddenly, there was a pain in the back of his neck. For a moment, he felt like the world was spinning. His consciousness began to dissipate quickly. Yuexing realized that he had been beheaded by an invisible enemy.
"You... don't need to know..." The cold voice echoed in the passage, and soon returned to silence.
…
After being in a daze for a moment, Yuexing looked at the scene in front of her
The feeling of the body has recovered. Yuexing raised her hand, looked at the notes in her hand, and thought about it.
"Is this...going back again?" Yuexing muttered, his brain still in a trance.
I only remember being beheaded, and my body still remembers the feeling of being fragmented, but now I am standing here intact.
As for looking back, Subaru probably entered the secret room later, and Youmeng’s situation is still unclear.
"Alas..." Yuexing sighed, feeling a sense of powerlessness emerging in her heart.
Yuexing walked to the grass and lay down, quietly waiting for Subaru's return.
After a while, two people appeared at the front door.
"You're back," Yuexing greeted as usual.
"Yes, I bought some things," Rem said, looking down at the bag in his hand.
Subaru, who was holding Ling Guo, nodded.
Yuexing shrugged at Subaru and walked towards Rem
"Let me help you," Yuexing said, picking up two big bags of vegetables and heading to the kitchen.
"Thank you" Rem smiled and followed.
"You bought a lot of stuff, and it's quite heavy. Did you walk a long way?" Yuexing asked.
"Well, the commercial street is still a bit far away from here, but fortunately these dishes are not heavy at all," Rem said.
Yuexing nodded, walked into the kitchen, and put the dishes on the floor
"Where do you put this Ling Guo Rem?" Subaru asked softly while holding the Ling Guo.
"Ah, put it in this cabinet. You can use it later to prepare afternoon tea."
"Okay." Subaru put the Lingguos into the cabinet one by one.
Yuexing looked at Subaru quietly for a while, then turned his gaze to Rem
"Rem" Yuexing called out
"yes"
"Can I help you? Since I need to talk to Subaru, it might take a while before I can help."
Rem looked at Yuexing, his eyes moved, thought for a moment and said
"If there is anything Yuexing wants to say, you can go and talk to Subaru first, and then you can help Rem after that."
Yuexing nodded, looked at Subaru, and walked outside
Subaru followed Yuexing to the lawn
Yuexing stood in front of Subaru with his hands behind his back. Subaru sighed.
"I'm so useless, so useless..."
Yuexing didn't speak
"You think so too, right?" Subaru asked, staring at Yuexing.
"No, I never felt that way." Yuexing shook her head.
"Oh, stop comforting me. I can't do anything. I'm just a waste."
"No, Subaru, you are wrong. Don't forget all of this. It's all because of your existence that we can do things well again and again, isn't it?"
"Yes, after dying again and again..." Subaru smiled to himself.
"Stop talking about things that beat yourself up. What we should do is understand the development of the situation and then change it - so I want to know what happened after I left." Yuexing waved his hand.
"Yeah," Subaru nodded and said.
"At that time, you left the words "take care of yourself" and disappeared. I asked Otto to drive faster, but even so, it still took four hours to reach the territory, and then something happened."
"What happened?" Yuexing asked
"Otto refuses to leave"
"Why"
"I don't want all the reward, I'll pay half of it, so please let me turn around here and go back to the city. These are his exact words." Subaru paused.
"The Earth Dragon... is scared. Not only that, but the area here is too quiet for me! This is why merchants choose Earth Dragon as their partners. The Earth Dragon can instinctively know places that cannot be approached... Otto
That's what he said"
"Is it animal intuition? The more intelligent a creature is, the more likely it is to sense hidden dangers. This kind of thing..." Yue Xing said
"The earth dragon who was quietly waiting for his master's orders kept breathing wildly, but he kept making noises with his nose in the direction of travel, and acted as if to report the danger over there."
"Judging from the behavior of this earth dragon and the reaction of Otto who trusted this behavior, I thought it was true, so I said goodbye and went to the village alone. It was really quiet and terrifying." Subaru sat down
"Where is the village? How is the situation in the village?" Yuexing asked
Subaru took a deep breath and said slowly
"All dead"
Subaru said this sentence almost in a very calm tone. Under this strong tone, he could feel the massacre he experienced inside. The scene was so horrific that he didn't want to think about it anymore.
"Where are the children?" Yuexing asked
"Several children died in the village. After I checked the whole village and found that no one was alive, I ran to the mansion," Subaru said.
"Then, there was a pile of dead bodies in the mansion square. A group of corpses were strangely surrounding the cabin, so I walked over to check."
"Rem and the surviving children are all inside, and that guy named Youmeng is also there. I didn't see you."
"How is it going?"
"It seems like Rem's body is covered in blood, but everyone else is fine." Subaru shook his head.
"After Youmeng came up and asked what happened, he told me that you entered the mansion and haven't come out yet."
"After settling them, I went inside the mansion to check the situation..."
"Hmm... So, the row of corpses lying in the mansion were all killed by you?" Subaru asked.
"right"
"The whole patch of red mixed with unknown objects on the grass is..."
"The remains of the guys I shot to death."
"Hiss... Is it so scary? I said I smell a strong smell of blood." Subaru said in surprise.
"What happened later? Why did you die?"
"If you wait too long, I suggested that You Meng and you go in to check the situation, and he agreed."
"We went to where you went and saw what you looked like." Subaru paused.
"...I wanted to touch you, but suddenly I was kicked away. A thick ice mist appeared, and then I saw Youmeng fighting with someone inside."
"Did you see what it was? Is it a person or something?" Yuexing asked, holding down Subaru's arm.
"No, the fog was too thick, and I could only vaguely see his shadow. Suddenly he rushed towards me, less than two meters away from my eyes, and I lost consciousness." Subaru shook his head
Yuexing was suddenly speechless
"I died...ha, I died so mysteriously." Subaru suddenly laughed.
"Pleiades……"
"I'm dead... I didn't help at all. I came all the way and died inexplicably under the eyes of others... Ha, I'm useless... ugh!" Subaru said as he spoke.
His face changed and he began to sob.
"Subaru, don't be like this, it's unnecessary." Yuexing patted Subaru.
"I'm dead!...There's no use for anything, ugh! I'm useless for nothing!...I've been relying on you all the time...Ugh..." Subaru cried, wiping his tears.
Snapped!--
Yuexing suddenly slapped Subaru on the face
Subaru stopped crying, and after being stunned for a while, he yelled at Yuexing
"What are you doing?! You hit me even though I'm like this! And you still laugh!"
Looking at this scene, Yuexing smiled and said
"Have you figured it out?"
"Well, although the process was a bit painful, I finally came to my senses. So what if I failed? As long as I try again, nothing will be a problem." Subaru said as he stood up and clenched his fists.
"This is the Subaru I know!" Yuexing nodded with satisfaction.
"I remember that slap. I will definitely slap it back next time." Subaru glared at Yuexing and said angrily.
"I won't let you get what you want so easily. By the way, did you think of something just now? I want to hear your opinion." Yuexing asked
"Yes, I just had an idea. If you cooperate with Rem, can you kill them all?"
"Kill them all?" Yuexing looked at the blue sky and thought for a while
"Those people in red can move like teleporters. It's difficult to deal with them if they are scattered," Yuexing said.
"There are a lot of people, but you took care of them all," Subaru said
"No, there are about two hundred people, and the number you see is a little more than half of them."
"There are so many, and there are more..."
"They teleported. Some of them teleported to the roof, and some of them disappeared without a trace. The guys on the roof were killed by me in an instant, so they couldn't run away. However, the load on the body was reflected after this."
"The load on your body? Yuexing, do you still have wounds on your body?" Subaru asked in surprise.
"It seems that nosebleeds will not stop after using some skills that rely on vitality. The impact is not too big." Yuexing made a hand gesture to express that there was no need to worry.
"Is it like a nosebleed due to excessive mental use... There should be no problem. If you cooperate with Rem, it should be able to solve it. Besides, there is an inexplicable bond between the two of you, so there should be no problem.
"Yeah," Subaru said.
"It's possible. There's definitely no problem with the soldiers. The problem is with the guy who killed us. You must have seen his strength."
"Why don't we just leave that guy to Youmu?" Subaru said with a guilty conscience.
"...Although they are also with us, they may have their own mission in this world. We must rely on ourselves as much as possible." Yuexing shook his head.
a brief silence
"No matter what, I will help you. I am very weak... I can only try my best to help you."
"On the contrary, you are the last guarantee behind me and the key to everything."
"If you say that, I can't help but feel proud."
"Wipe the traces of tears stuck on your face before you say this."
Subaru smiled awkwardly, and after a while of fussing around, he nodded with firm eyes.
