chapter_47_The mutated monster
Thanks to Liuli's addition, Ikshire almost got the most luxurious camping tent in the town. However, under Newme's persistence and Anna's words, Ikshire looked at the luxurious tent in tears as he walked away from him.
Of course, after Liuli joined, there were already six people in total, four of whom were girls' adventure teams, and they also had to prepare another tent.
With Numei's insistence, the tent that Liuli originally planned to pay for himself was bought by everyone. However, Numei, who had no money for the time being, would return the money to Liuli after receiving the reward for this mission.
After everything was ready, Baron, the adventurous team that seemed very young, set off.
I don’t know if it was the goddess’ blessing, but the group followed the map with almost no accuracy, without taking any detours, and arrived at the lake of Moon on the evening of the first day after departure. No abnormal creatures were found along the way.
The night in the forest is quiet.
Apart from the occasional crackling of the burning bonfire and the snoring of the fool Baron, there was no other sound around this small camp.
Even the most roaring sound of insects in the forest disappeared.
However, the only people who noticed this abnormality were Liuli and Anna.
Newme has done a good job in martial arts and people's affairs, but as a warrior who has just walked out of the martial arts hall, Newme is still just a rookie.
As a reason why she was a dark elf and didn't need much sleep, Anna took over most of the vigil.
When everyone should have fallen asleep, someone who was expected but somewhat unexpected appeared.
"The night is really beautiful, isn't it? Sister Anna." Liuli's pleasant voice appeared behind Anna.
Although she had predicted the appearance of Beren Casfil, she did not expect that she would not hide her behavior at all. As a "noble" "little girl", she should have been asleep long ago!
Of course, Anna only dared to think about it in her heart. Who knows why this "Miss Beren Casfil" doesn't sleep and get up in the middle of the night.
In order to hide her inner tension, Anna, who sat on the tree and almost her whole body was in the shadow, turned her head slightly and looked at the lake not far from the camp.
"Sister Anna, do you know that the beautiful lake in front of you will be called the 'Lake of Moon'?" Liuli continued to ask in that sweet voice when she came to the tree where Anna was.
"have no idea."
In the years that I came to this world, I struggled to survive in Dark City. Later, I, who had finally left Dark City, was just wandering aimlessly on the continent. If it weren't for this mission, I wouldn't have known what the lake surrounding the Billmark Empire Testing Ground in the game is called "Lake of Moon"! And, what would this cheesy name that can be seen everywhere have too much significance?
"The day before yesterday, I saw information about the 'Moon Lake' in the collection of books at the mayor's house~" Liuli continued, "This lake, sometimes, will suddenly drop sharply in the days before and after the moon becomes a crescent moon, and suddenly it will turn from a complete full moon into a crescent lake like the moon in the sky at that time~ It sounds quite romantic~? Sister Anna."
The next crescent moon...the water surface drops...?
Looking up at the sky, a crescent moon was hanging quietly above the sky.
"Today is exactly the day of the crescent moon~" Liuli said with a standard smile, "I wonder if we are lucky to see this kind of dreamy scene~?"
"The next crescent moon..."
Anna, who thought of something, immediately jumped out of the tree.
Although I almost never care about the geography of the mainland, it does not mean that I am a fool! The crescent moon... the water surface is falling... the bloodthirsty cat demon who appeared in the forest outside the Alvin defense two days ago... These evidences are enough to prove a fact!
That is, we have really caught up with the wonder of this "Moon Lake"! And the mutated creatures who were originally trapped by the lake on the small island in the lake are likely to take advantage of this time to rush out of the island!
Just as Anna walked quickly towards the tent, preparing to wake Baron and the others up and leave this place that was about to become very dangerous.
A huge roar came from the direction of the lake behind Anna.
That is the sound of the lake passing by rapidly.
"Oops……!"
There is not much time left! Baron and the others, who are still rookies, can't be the opponents of the mutated creatures in the Billmark Empire Test Field!
"What happened..." Ikhil's confused voice came from the tent.
"Call them up quickly," Anna said, "Quick! Ikhil."
Even Anna, who had always been the most steady, had a hint of anxiety. Ikshire also understood that something might have happened. Not caring about being wearing thin pajamas, Ikshire immediately woke up Newme beside him, and then summoned a cute Binnas like a starfish, and woke up the fool Baron and the fool Carbensis in the simplest and most rude way.
"What's going on!"
"What a ice!"
The two people who woke up shouted in a howling howling.
He simply executed the master's orders, and the lower elf Bingnas, who had a very simple intelligence, could only blink his watery eyes innocently when he heard the shouts of the two people, and then returned to Ikshire.
"Give up everything unnecessary and prepare to escape..." Anna said.
However, at this time, a tall blood-red figure, with countless blood-red shadows, had appeared at the location that should have been by the lake.
"No...get ready for the fight, everyone." Anna said seriously by pulling out the dagger from her waist.
Although I don’t know what the real bloodthirsty cat demon and the commander of the bullhead are, even if it is just like in the game, their speed in the jungle can definitely easily catch up with Baron and others! What’s more, from the lessons of the dog-headed man Siwu and the magic flute messenger Pete, these real monsters will only be more powerful and elusive than in the game! Moreover, the commander of the bullhead has discovered the firelight in the camp! The bonfire originally used to drive away wild beasts has now become the guiding lights of the mutated monsters in the Billmark Empire Testing Ground!
At this time, Newme, Baron and Carpensis, who were poking their heads out of the tent, had also seen the blood-red figures.
"Tsk...a mutated monster! Let me teach you a good lesson in the sword in my uncle Baron's hand!" Although he said that, if you look closely, a lot of cold sweat had already oozed out of Baron's forehead.
And Cabenssis, who always likes to pretend to be a roaming gunman, rarely took back the revolver in his hand, and replaced it with another automatic pistol that looked very suitable for mechanics and had never even seen in the Calert Legion. The text printed on the stock seemed to be the name of this automatic pistol, starlight-syndrome (TX translation: Mechanical God of War-Sky...Okay, I don't want to complain anymore.).
"It seems like an opponent who needs to be serious..."
On the other hand, the "qi" visible to the naked eye has surrounded Newme. And Ikhil has summoned the armed goblins that originally existed in another world through the ancient contract of the summoners.
When the "red mutant cat demon" whose eyes revealed bloodthirsty light, the moment they entered the range of the "junior magician Beren Casfil", she "just finished reciting the spell", she immediately launched a fireball that was also red towards the densest place of the cat demon! (Let's talk about the setting here. The "demon magic" mastered by the dark elves is not exactly the same. The human fireball is a burning flame, and the fireball of the "demon magic" obviously has a face of Jack, and its power is slightly larger than that of the human fireball magic, so it is called "Jack Explosion Bomb". In short, in addition to being more suitable for human learning, magic in the magic world has more advantages than human magic in other aspects. This is also the reason why Ikhill looked down on human magicians a little at the beginning.)
After falling into the group of cat demons, the fireball of Liuli exploded. However, only the bloodthirsty cat demon who hit the "standard fireball" was burned half of the body. The cat demon who was affected by the explosion and was only slightly injured almost instantly turned over and rushed towards the adventure team even more fearlessly!
"These are indeed mutated cat demons!" Newme shouted, "Baron, cheer me up with a lot of energy! If it were the same as Mr. Linus said, we would not even be injured at all! We do not have the priests who use the sacred light to deal with the bleeding wounds!"
At the same time, Numei turned sideways slightly, with her hands drew an arc to her waist behind her, and made a gesture of embracing the bird's tail. Then, with Numei's loud shout, his hands holding the ball quickly pushed forward, and a gas bounce shining with white light flew towards the cat demon group. The "mind Qi bounce" that is more pierced than the fireball magic has disappeared after piercing the bodies of more than a dozen cat demons and losing their ability to move.
However, the smell of blood emitted by the injured cat demons seemed to make these mutated cat demons even more crazy!
When we arrived at the place about five meters in front of everyone, dozens of cat demons in the forward position jumped up high, raised their sharp claws, and wanted to attack the "food" in front of us from top to bottom with our companions behind us! Even the cat demon's claws and sharp teeth that reflected blood red light under the moonlight had clearly appeared in front of everyone!
"Even if it is mutated, can you only know this?" Baron shouted, "The sword in my hand is already hungry and thirsty, hahahaha!"
Turning slightly, then, the giant sword in his hand slashed at the cat demon with heavy force!
