"So according to the mission, we received a commission from a noble to find a rich lady, and this rich lady went to hunt goblins?"
Yukai Ayami looked at the parchment in front of her curiously, while Yuuki Yuuki beside her shrugged her shoulders.
"That's about it. Since there are no cell phones or messaging devices in this world, there's no way to confirm if you're safe."
"This doesn't seem to be any different from what we do in the Anbu, but is it still a little different?"
Bow Hunter Tiger whispered, and Kinuhata's favorite licked his lips.
“It feels like an RPG game. It’s really fun!”
At this moment, the voice of the priestess came from the front.
"Everyone, the lady in front is the one who took on the task... Not good!"
Um?
Hearing the priestess' voice, the girls looked up and saw smoke and fire clearly visible in the distance.
"Has this place been attacked?"
"I'm afraid it's a goblin... Everyone, are you able to join the battle?"
"certainly."
In response to the priestess's question, Kinuhata Sukai raised her hand.
“I can’t wait!”
Soon, the carriage sped up, enduring the bumps that a car would never experience, and soon the group arrived outside the village that was being attacked by goblins.
At this moment, the whole village was engulfed in a sea of fire. The girls could see a group of half-human-tall, thin and small monsters waving their weapons, laughing cruelly, and attacking the villagers.
"There really is such a monster!"
Seeing this, the girls in the Anbu widened their eyes in surprise. If they were still somewhat skeptical before, now after seeing these monsters that looked completely different from humans, the girls immediately calmed down.
"Let's drive the goblins out of the village first!"
The priestess was the first to jump off the carriage and shouted loudly. Hearing her words, the girls sitting in the back of the carriage also stood up and looked at each other.
"Well, let's get started."
The village was now a sea of fire.
"Help! Help!"
A woman was holding her child and shouting for help. Around her, three or five goblins were waving clubs and approaching her with a grin. At this moment, a petite figure fell from the sky.
“Drink!”
Juanqi's favorite stomped heavily on the head of one of the goblins like a cannonball, crushing its head into a pulp. Facing this sudden attacker, the goblins turned around angrily, waving their weapons and rushing towards Juanqi's favorite. However, the next moment, their heads suddenly exploded with blood, and then these goblins fell to the ground without a sound.
"Leave here quickly and seek shelter."
Juanqi Zuiai glanced at the goblin corpses around him, looked at the woman with an unchanged expression and spoke, and the woman nodded, tremblingly picked up her child and turned to leave. However, just as Juanqi Zuiai turned to look at the woman, suddenly, a goblin hiding under the corpse of a villager not far away suddenly jumped up, made a strange cry, and stabbed Juanqi Zuiai's head with a dagger.
If it were an ordinary person, this one blow alone would have been enough to be fatal. However, when the goblin's dagger stabbed Juanqi's favorite, it seemed to be blocked by something and bounced off. Then Juanqi's favorite turned around and punched, directly knocking the goblin in front of him away.
"As expected, as Miss Priestess said, these goblins are really cunning."
Kinuhata's favorite ability is the Lv4 "Nitrogen Armor". Even large-caliber sniper bullets cannot penetrate her protection. These goblin weapons are even more useless to Kinuhata's favorite.
"But it actually turned out to be a monster. This is my first time killing a monster...not counting in-game ones."
At this time, the Archer Hunter Tiger not far away also came out, looked around, and saw the goblin not far away rushing towards him again. The Archer Hunter Tiger immediately raised his right hand, and the next moment he saw the goblin rushing towards him suddenly fell to the ground.
"Good fight."
"After all, I was once a member of ANBU School, so don't underestimate me."
As a member of the Anbu, Archer Tiger is a Level 0 powerless person, but she possesses excellent tracking and anti-tracking techniques. Moreover, unlike the orthodox sniper Reki, Archer Tiger is better at medium and short-range sniping. Her sniper rifle is modified and hidden in her clothes in the form of an exo-skeleton, and she uses compressed carbon dioxide to shoot from the cuffs.
Moreover, as a sniper, Archer Tiger Hunter is very good at hiding her breath, so dealing with these goblins is a piece of cake for her.
On the other side, Aoki Yuzumi and Ayami Gokumi were also busy.
“Help, help…!!”
A couple was trapped in a burning house, shouting loudly, but just as the collapsed roof was about to hit them, their figures disappeared in an instant and then appeared on the ground not far away. The two survivors opened their eyes and looked around in surprise, not knowing how they had left the place surrounded by flames.
"Okay, hurry up and leave here and meet up with the others over there."
Aoki Yume waved the flashlight, and soon, another little girl appeared out of thin air and landed on the ground not far from the two of them. As a Level 4 coordinate movement user, Aoki Yume had always been the "guide" of the Aleister Building, responsible for transferring other people to the building, so for Aoki Yume, this was considered a normal operation.
"Thank you, thank you so much."
Although they didn't know what Aoki Yuuki had done, people in the fantasy world generally have a strong ability to accept things, so they naturally thought that this might be some kind of magic. So the couple hurriedly stood up, respectfully bowed to Aoki Yuuki, and then hurriedly ran to the back with the child in their arms.
"Thank you...?"
Aoki Yui looked at the couple, the corners of her mouth curled up slightly.
"This feeling... doesn't seem so bad!"
As she spoke, Aoki Yui waved the flashlight vigorously again, and the next moment she saw a goblin with a branch piercing its body, screaming and falling to the ground.
Another group of goblins also encountered their enemies.
"That's not right."
Yuhai Caimei looked at the goblins in front of her with a smile. Logically, the goblins should rush forward and tear the girl into pieces. But the fact is that although they are holding sticks and bows and arrows, they can't attack Yuhai Caimei anyway.
"We are friends, you wouldn't do something like this to your friends, right?"
As she spoke, Yukai Ayami raised the pistol in her hand and pulled the trigger at the goblin in front of her.
“Bang, bang, bang!!”
As the gunshots rang out, goblins fell to the ground one by one, and the other goblins hurriedly turned around and wanted to leave. However, at this moment, Yuhai Ayami's voice sounded again.
"Wait a minute, we are best friends, are you willing to abandon me?"
Hearing this voice, the goblins turned around again and looked at Yuhai Ayami as if possessed, and Yuhai Ayami smiled slightly.
"Since I'm your best friend, please do me a favor. Those guys want to hurt me. It's scary. How about you help me kill them?"
"……?"
The goblins looked at each other, then made a "ga" sound, and then turned around and rushed towards another group of goblins not far away.
“How interesting.”
Seeing this, Yukai Ayami smiled slightly.
“This is much simpler than humans.”
Yukai Ayami's ability is Lv4 "Psychological Regulation". She can freely adjust the spiritual distance between herself and others. Simply put, even if both parties are just strangers who meet for the first time, Yukai Ayami can easily adjust the spiritual distance between the two parties, from "friends" to "familiar friends", to "friends who can talk about anything", and even "friends of life and death".
It is also because of this that the goblins will not attack Yukai Ayami, because Yukai Ayami has used her abilities to adjust the distance between herself and them so that they are in the same group.
Therefore, even in the Anbu, Jigokumi Ayami has always been kept at a distance, because her ability is not much safer than Shokuhou Misaki. Although Shokuhou Misaki's psychological control is more terrifying, the ability to unconsciously treat the other person as a friend with whom she can talk about anything, and then reveal all her secrets at once... is indeed scary enough.
Even Level 5 ability users like Kakine Teito and Mugino Shenli are unwilling to provoke Yuumi Ayami.
And all of this has been seen by Fang Zheng through the screen.
"Well, it looks like it's all right."
Looking at the battle on the screen, Fang Zheng nodded. If he wanted to change the minds of the Anbu girls, preaching alone would not work. He had to make them aware of what they were doing, why they were doing it, and what benefits would come from doing it. If the Anbu girls in the past were all pawns abandoned by Academy City, then now, Fang Zheng was making them feel what they should truly possess as human beings.
"If there is no problem, let these four people join the adventure team. We do need more manpower."
Fang Zheng gave a casual instruction and Kuang San nodded.
"I understand, Mr. Fang Zheng. So what's next?"
"At the moment..."
Having said this, Fang Zheng paused and shrugged his shoulders.
"Let's focus on the Endymion opening ceremony tomorrow."
