Chapter 138 Cleaning
In most cases, clearing low-level monsters is an extremely tedious task.
There are two kinds of "demons" in this world: magical beasts that are born with intelligence and magical creatures that originate from chaos.
Five percent of the demons and monsters were born on the Isaiah continent, silently occupying scattered corners of the continent. Ninety-five percent of the demons and monsters live in the abyss of the Crimson Night, and the gap in the Death Valley is their only entrance to the Isaiah continent.
But because of the existence of the seal, these demons that come out of the gap must return to the gap and return to the abyss before the passage disappears.
If a demon fails to return in time, what awaits them is the suppression of the sealing force. Suppression will cause them to lose nearly 80% to 90% of their power, and they are very likely to die at the hands of the magician. Therefore, for long-term development, the demons with wisdom will return in time.
Very occasionally, some demons fail to catch up and are forced to stay in the human territory.
But most of the demons that were left behind were low-level monsters, without any intelligence at all. All their actions were driven by the most primitive desire to eat.
After coming out of the gap, these low-level monsters have been endlessly attacking the particularly fresh and tempting "flesh and blood" in front of them until the gap disappears and they completely lose the possibility of retreat.
In either case, the task of cleaning up after the gap appears is inevitable.
Lu Yi performed a lot of cleaning tasks when he was in Boyak. After coming to Luo Saiqiao, he quickly adapted to the cleaning rhythm of the mages here.
The cleaning mission was tedious and boring, but sometimes Lu Yi could also find some fun in the midst of hardship, such as listening to the conversations of other members of the team or getting scientific introductions to the monsters they encountered.
There are countless types of monsters. There are hundreds or even thousands of types that have been compiled and recorded by humans alone, not to mention the monsters that have not yet been officially recorded.
"Look, this!" The dark-skinned man picked up a round ball with black gas coming out of it.
Upon closer inspection, this mass of black gas somewhat resembles a grinning rabbit.
"Moustaurus, it looks harmless, doesn't it? But it is not a good thing. It can confuse people's minds!" The man carefully put the black ball into a special leather bag.
"If you get bitten by accident, it will be troublesome! Either you eat others, or you eat yourself!"
Lu Yi blinked and repeated, "Eat yourself?"
"Yes!" Seeing Lant's curiosity, the man patiently explained, "Monsters are greedy by nature, and the greed of the mouse deer is even worse. The toxins it carries will amplify this greed and reflect it on the poisoned person."
He was not a patient and talkative person, but seeing that Rand was curious, he immediately started to explain.
It was because Rant's strength convinced him, and more importantly, because of Rant's natural affinity.
"But because of the existence of the seal, after the gap disappeared, the danger level of the stag dropped sharply, and the troublesome toxin turned into a precious potion."
"Magic potion?" Lu Yi smiled subconsciously, "Could it be an edible magic potion? To make a child who refuses to eat eat?"
This thought just popped up in Lu Yi's mind suddenly, and he said it casually without taking it too seriously, but the man's face suddenly froze.
"Not eating..." His voice became smaller and smaller, and finally even became a little shy.
"It can be used to make drugs that can help with sexual intercourse. You know, many nobles like it. There is a market for it and the demand is not small. Mouse deer are easy to catch, so it is a popular commodity..."
Lu Yi understood. It made sense. When people are well fed and warm, they will think about sex. This is very reasonable.
The man looked at the pile of monster corpses in front of him, turned around and nodded to the others beside him, saying, "Okay, now we have almost cleaned up all the useful ones, and the rest have to be completely cleared... Lant, thank you for your help."
Lu Yi nodded and used the light magic skillfully.
His movements were natural and casual, seemingly without any sophisticated techniques, but every arc of his fingertips was just right, releasing the power of light to the greatest extent without any redundancy or waste.
The man watching from the side was shocked. The more natural and effortless the move was, the more powerful the wizard named Lant was.
Lant's light power was extremely pure, and it quickly dispelled the surrounding black air. The bodies of the monsters all disappeared under such clear light. With him as the center, the surrounding environment became bright.
"Awesome!" Another slightly thinner man couldn't help but admire, "Lant, you are really good! This is really amazing. For such a large cleaning site, we usually need two or three days to finish it, but today it only took a few hours!"
Look at the bright scene in front of them. Where are the tragic traces of monster corpses lying around?
If every cleaning spot could be cleaned as cleanly as the one in front of them, there would be no need for ordinary people to do a second cleaning!
"Yeah, I still can't believe it. It's over now?! Is this the strength of a fourth-level light mage? Why don't the fourth-level bishops I met before seem to be so strong..."
"Level 4 is different from Level 4! Lant must be a super strong Level 4..."
Lu Yi felt a little embarrassed by the exaggerated praise from several people, but he maintained a calm and detached expression on his face.
He has seen big scenes and he no longer blushes!
[“Is it really that smooth and that amazing?”]
857 mercilessly shattered his arrogance, [Wake up, Xia over there has already got the opportunity to enter the third level, 61 you are still at the first level, you hit me and I hit you...]
Lu Yi's smile disappeared, ["It doesn't matter, Lant will take action."]
The man gathered the pile of materials in his hands, carefully sorted them and put them into his space ring. After doing all this, he turned around and looked at the people in the team.
"Anyway, thanks to Rand we can finish work a few days earlier! It's really great! Praise Rand, praise the Holy See, praise the God of Light!"
"Praise the God of Light! It's been a while since I've had a freshly baked dinner!"
"Praise our great Light Mage Lanter! May the God of Light bless him!"
…
With the arrival of supporting mages from all sides, the cleaning task in the next few days became much easier.
The backup plan that everyone was worried about never appeared, and the attack seemed to be just the unexpected strength of the monster.
If the surviving wizard had not insisted that the monsters' behavior was organized and planned, the alert would have been removed long ago. But even though the cordon was still up, the calm weather in the past few days made everyone slowly relax.
Once the redistribution of the mages of the three city-states is completed, these "temporary workers" who are candidates for the Son of God will also have to leave. After all, there is not much time left in the Vatican's twenty-day trial.
"Maybe it's just a coincidence?" Gary said indifferently.
"Yieta said that she saw with her own eyes that the Warcraft was driving the other monsters to act. They were able to survive not because of their strength or luck, but simply because of the Warcraft's evil taste, which allowed them to buy back some precious time to survive." Lu Yi said seriously.
It was during this period of time that Rand's support arrived.
At that time, Lant followed Boyak's team to Luo Saiqiao, and halfway through, 857 anxiously told him about Luo Saiqiao's critical situation. Lu Yi was worried about Senior Sister Yieta who was in Luo Saiqiao, so he directly exchanged the props and used the name of the God Clan to make it easier to act, which led to the later division of the troops into two groups.
"But isn't it normal for higher-level magical beasts to drive lower-level magical beasts? Not to mention mere low-level monsters." Gary said.
"Don't change the subject. You know that's not what I'm talking about." Lu Yi said helplessly.
Seeing Rand's serious expression, Gary reluctantly put away some of the nonchalant look on his face.
"Yes, I know what you want to say, but even if it is true, so what? I didn't say enough about you being soft-hearted before. Not only is you soft-hearted, but you are also too nosy!
"Is it your business? You are just here worrying about others. You have thought it through so clearly, so you must have also thought that what we know now is also the intentional act of those monsters, right?"
Gary's words were blunt, but Lu Yi had long been accustomed to his tone of criticism, so he let it go in one ear and out the other and continued, "Do you think this is a provocation or a warning?"
Gary had finished talking about the good and the bad, but when he saw that Rand remained unmoved, he was speechless for a long time.
"You are such a stubborn person. I must have owed you in my last life..." Gary said, "Does it matter whether it's a provocation or a warning? No matter which one it is, it has nothing to do with us. Look, there are only a few days left. We will be returning to the Church soon. Instead of worrying about the motives of the monster, you might as well think about what will be tested in the next three rounds of assessment days."
"Look at Xia, how smart she is. She does what is easy and what is difficult to do, and never wastes even a single ounce of her energy!" Gary exclaimed.
In his opinion, Rand should look at West Asia in some aspects.
Although Gary disliked Xia from the bottom of his heart, he had to admit that Xia was indeed good. He had been among the injured mages these days, and regardless of the effect of his treatment, he had made a lot of noise and had earned a good reputation as "gentle and powerful" among the group of light mages in charge of treatment.
As for Rand, who was clearly doing more work by healing a seriously injured mage and then clearing the Gap Ruins? Do you think anyone in Luo Saiqiao cares?
Gary sneered at these short-sighted people, but Rant himself didn't care about these false reputations, so he had no right to get angry. He could only watch Xia with a hypocritical smile, feeling upset.
Thinking of this, Gary stared at Rand fiercely.
Lu Yi was puzzled by his look, "Of course this is very important!"
"If this is just a warning, then maybe there will be more buffer time. But if this is a provocation..." Lu Yi paused, "I don't believe there is no backup plan."
But where will this backhand be hidden? In what form will it appear?
...external? or internal?
What kind of existence is hiding behind the scenes and driving the demons, or even the monsters?
For example...the god whose taboo is darkness?
"Stop." Gary stretched out his hand. "Let me ask you, has the support force arrived at Luo Saiqiao?"
"Yes, but..."
Gary didn't wait for Lant to finish his words before continuing, "Will Luo Saiqiao's mages be replenished soon?"
"yes……"
"That's it!" Gary spread his hands, "Do you not believe in Luo Saiqiao or do you not believe in the Holy See?"
Lu Yi was speechless.
"Come on, forget about it. Can you go through the gap to the abyss and see it with your own eyes? Be good and listen to me. If you think too much at a young age, you won't grow taller."
After Gary finished speaking, he even compared himself to Brant, saying that he was shorter than him.
Lu Yi forced a smile, and taking advantage of the moment when Gary was stunned, he punched him hard.
"Uh..." Gary made an exaggerated expression of pain, holding his stomach and said heartbrokenly, "I decided to take back what I said just now. You are not soft-hearted at all. You are so cruel!"
"Let's go, the team is still waiting for me."
After Lu Yi finished speaking, he turned around without hesitation and walked towards Luo Saiqiao's temporary team not far away.
Today is his last day of overseas assignment, and the following missions will focus on Luo Saiqiao City.
This meant that these were Rant's last few hours with the team, and he wanted to put a perfect end to it for them.
"Rant!" The dark-skinned captain waved at him with a smile on his face, and the team members behind him also had relaxed expressions.
"Captain! Where is our mission point today?"
"Today's mission point is a bit far. It's one of the farthest mission points. We have to walk faster today. Um, I applied for a horse..."
"Great! Praise the Captain!"
A group of people walked out of the city.
The author has something to say:
I'm afraid my wives will have to wait, so I'll update one chapter first. The next chapter should be at one or two o'clock. My wives can come back tomorrow to read it. qwq
