The carriages were crowded together, the merchants were cursing, and the city gate was still closed, but Leier's heart could not calm down.

She had a feeling that something big was going to happen, and she felt uneasy in her heart.

Leer got off the carriage and looked back at the driver: "Please take care of the people inside."

"Miss? I'll go too...ahem!!"

Greno, the white-haired butler, was about to step out of the carriage, but was stopped by Rael: "No, your injury has not healed yet. I just went to evacuate the crowd to avoid accidents."

There were a few wrinkles on Greno's weathered face, and he seemed to realize that he could no longer help her.

"Then I understand, you have to be careful."

"Um."

Hearing this, she nodded to the coachman, who nodded knowingly, and then drove the carriage away.

Walking through the long queue, Rael showed a determined expression.

The locked door and the barrier that had been activated for more than half an hour proved the seriousness of the matter. Although she didn't know what happened inside, it was definitely not a good thing.

There were no guards in front of the city gate, and the place was crowded with merchants. She suddenly jumped up, flew in mid-air, and appeared in front of everyone.

"I am a special representative of the Adventurer's Guild. According to the laws of each empire, once the city barrier is activated, no one is allowed to approach the city gate. So, please leave here immediately!"

She shouted loudly, and the noisy merchants looked at her and shouted: "This place is not under the control of the Adventurer's Guild!"

"We're going to town!"

"My deal is today. If I can't get into the city, I will starve to death!"

Businessmen are not a group of obedient people. They don't take Rael seriously at all. Rich businessmen usually hire magic bodyguards. Rael has no way of scaring them away with just a few tricks. On the contrary,

It will attract the attention of the bodyguards. They are eager to show themselves off in order to ask for higher rewards.

Therefore, it would be difficult for Rael to evacuate this group of people by herself.

However, at this moment, there was a bang and the city gate opened a small gap from bottom to top.

"It's open!"

“Finally willing to open the door!”

Leer turned around, and when everyone was trying to squeeze in, they suddenly found that there were also people inside, wanting to get out, and all of them had panic on their faces.

"Don't go near the city gate!! Get out of there!!"

Leer suddenly reacted and shouted loudly.

However, after the city barrier was deployed, the sound was isolated, and the people inside could not hear her voice at all, but rushed out one after another.

However, the barrier is still unfolding.

Poof! Poof!!

The first group of people to rush out encountered the translucent barrier, and suddenly a terrible force rebounded, instantly tearing people and cars into pieces. The horrific scene of bloody flesh and blood was vivid to the people blocked outside the city gate.

, their eyes widened one by one, and their faces turned pale.

Everyone inside showed desperate expressions. The person at the front wanted to brake and turn back, but the people at the back didn't know the situation in front and were still pushing forward desperately.

So the people in front were pushed closer to the city gate.

puff!!

Under the terrifying energy of the barrier, it's like putting countless eggs into a blender.

Leer's eyes widened and she gritted her teeth.

Many businessmen closed their eyes and vomited wildly.

"Quickly retreat! Don't block the people behind you!"

"Ah! Run quickly!"

Instantly, fear spread outside the city. The merchants blocking the city gate abandoned their cars and fled. The merchants behind didn't know what was going on, so they just followed the crowd. They quickly drove their carriages and turned around and ran away.

.

Leer's eyes shed tears. She watched helplessly as the desperate man turned into pieces. She couldn't do anything.

"No!!"

Suddenly! She gritted her teeth and held the glass staff in her hand tightly. Her hair and eyes glowed strangely at the same time.

Overloaded with magic power, she poured a large amount of magic power into the staff in her hand.

"Light destroyer cannon!!"

The staff that gathered a large amount of magic power emitted a hot and dazzling light, and suddenly turned into a terrifying beam of light that hit the barrier of the city gate.

Although the barrier can resist all attacks, penetrating magic such as light and dark magic can still affect the inside of the barrier.

"ah!"

A powerful impact hit the barrier, and suddenly there was a bang, and wave-like fluctuations appeared on the barrier. The explosion caused a terrible gust of wind, which directly blew away the people near the city gate.

However, at this moment, Rael looked through the barrier and saw what really scared the people inside. A group of monsters she had never seen before appeared in her field of vision. They rushed into the crowd and started killing...

At this time, in the castle, because Jinus brought a large number of guards out of the castle, the defense force in the castle was weak. The invading monsters met little resistance and occupied the castle.

Edel sneaked into the castle. He had been here before and knew where the room that controlled the city barrier was. Hidden in the shadows, he could count the monsters on the road. It stands to reason that he should be able to turn off the city barrier soon.

However.

"I won't let you succeed."

A girl with golden hair appeared on the top of the castle tower. She swung her feet and smiled ferociously. Suddenly, the monsters in the castle reacted, and black blood suddenly spurted out from their mouths, smearing it on

on the surrounding walls.

At this time, the black shadow walking through the wall in the old castle suddenly hit the wall stained with black blood with a bang.

Edel emerged from the shadows and landed safely with a backflip.

"What!"

He raised his head suddenly and saw a monster with a twisted body, like four or five people fused together.

There is magic in the black blood. They form a wall, and Shadow Andel cannot penetrate the opponent's magic wall.

Do these monsters have such intelligence?

This is trouble!

Suddenly the monster attacked him, waving his limbs and attacking continuously. Edel jumped back, leaving a black shadow in the position he had just occupied. When the monster stepped on it,

It was stuck at once.

"Shadow·Glue!"

Edel didn't want to spend more time with this monster, so he wanted to bypass it directly and go to the control room.

However, the monster whose freedom was restricted suddenly cracked open, and claws like crab legs protruded from the crack.

"What!"

Edel was shocked. He had never seen such a monster before. There were other monsters hidden in his body?

The monster is like a cocoon, hatching out a brand new monster. It has a hard shell, as if covered with white bones, and its body is crawling on the ground, like a beetle. There are four crab-like claws in front of it, and the claws are like

The blade is as sharp as a knife, and the tail is like a scorpion's stinger.

"Toy No. 1! The cute little scorpion!"

The blond girl saw the scene in the house somehow. The color of her left eye was slightly different from that of her right eye, as if it was covered by a black curtain.

…

"What kind of monster is this!"

Edel showed a serious expression, and suddenly, the newly born monster rushed over at a terrifying speed, and swung its four sharp claws at him like it was holding four knives.

He jumped up and actually stepped on the ceiling upside down. His feet were entangled with black shadows, thinking of himself on them.

"Shadow!"

A black silk thread shot out from his hand and was ready to stick to the monster's sadness. He immediately pulled the thread and stuck it to the ceiling. Then the thread shrank and the monster floated into the air and was hung by him.

on the ceiling.

He somersaulted back to the ground, and when he was about to run, the monster suddenly cut the black silk with its claws and attacked him.

"What!"

Edel's eyes widened. They were filaments made from his special ability that transformed magic power. They could actually be stretched several hundred meters. They were extremely flexible and could not be cut off by even the sharpest knife.

Seeing the four sharp blades coming towards him, Edel gritted his teeth. At this moment of surprise, his hand touched the wall.

"Tide!!"

Suddenly, the shadow magic in his hand burst out. The compressed magic was energized in an instant, and the outer magic was blown out. For a moment, like waves crashing on a rock, a huge black wave blocked Edel's body.
