Chapter 264: Girl and Slime
Although he has returned to the normal world, Duke Carrot does not appear immediately.
After thinking about it, Anvis tried to contact the Duke with the crystal ball.
However, no one answered the call yet.
After sending a video message to the Duke, Anvis took out an alchemical floating disc from his ring, flew high into the sky, and looked around.
He was now near a low gray-white rock mountain range, surrounded by endless primeval jungle and wilderness with lush wild grass. A few gray skylarks were startled by his appearance and immediately flew away, chirping.
The sun had risen high, and from Anvis's perspective, he could see a wide, light blue river winding through the forest, sparkling towards the distant horizon.
Going down the river, a city that looked no bigger than a sesame seed appeared in his sight.
Fortunately, he was not teleported into some dangerous place.
Controlling the flying saucer, Avis quickly flew towards the city, ready to find out where he was and how much time he had spent on the assessment.
But during the flight, he discovered an unexpected situation.
The young knight, Alyssa, seemed to have been teleported to this area as well as him.
Her condition did not look very good. Due to the serious aftereffects of teleportation, she stumbled like a drunk and could not even swing her sword steadily.
And then, a giant pink slime with a body as thick as gelatin started to get entangled with her.
Simply put, she was currently nearly half swallowed by the slime, and her clothes without armor protection had been melted into tatters, revealing a large area of snow-white skin underneath.
Slimes are not naturally born magical creatures, but were created in a wizard's experimental accident.
The first slime was created by Marian, a high-level summoning mage.
Due to a serious experimental accident, half of her wizard tower exploded, and a strange translucent cloud overflowed from the broken tower and spread into the sky.
That day, a strange slime rain fell from the sky of the Yar continent, and these slimes were able to reproduce by fusion and splitting.
Since then, there has been a new category of magical beasts in this world. Marian herself is called the Mother of Slime by the mages, and it is hard to say whether this is a respectful title or a bad name.
Landing from the air, Avis pulled Alyssa out of the slime like a hero who saved the princess from the dragon's mouth in a stage play, and used magic to help her recover some of her condition.
"Hoo--thank you for your help, Avis..."
Holding Anvis’s hand, Alyssa gasped violently, somewhat frightened.
If Anvis hadn't appeared, she could hardly imagine what would become of her next.
Due to the 'fierce fight' with the slime just now, the girl knight's delicate and slender cheeks were unusually flushed, and paired with her golden-red eyes that sparkled with water, she looked very charming.
"After all, we were fighting together last night, and this is as it should be."
Anvis answered in a very gentlemanly manner, and at the same time carefully took out a cloak and put it on the girl.
“…”
Alyssa also noticed the state of her clothes. Her originally rosy face silently turned bright red like blood. She instinctively grabbed the cloak with one hand and tried to wrap her body as much as possible.
At the same time, she swung her sword backhand, cutting the giant slime into several pieces.
The chopped giant slime left behind a core gel, and the rest turned into many small slimes that jumped away.
The ball of gel was finally taken away by Avis, but the female knight refused to take it no matter what.
"Um...Avis, do you know where we are?"
"I don't know either, Alyssa, but there is a city not far away. I think we can go there together to find out the situation—"
Avis shook his head slightly, and touched the light blue gem on the chest of the dress, turning it into a set of seemingly ordinary traveler's clothes.
After the girl changed her clothes, the two boarded the flying saucer and headed for the town. Although Avis and his group successfully teleported back to the Yar continent before the world completely collapsed , the subsequent impact of this incident has only just begun.
Realizing that the coordinates representing the Avis Amulet had been teleported away, Carrot immediately went to the gathering place of the True Knowledge Society.
But what he didn't expect was that the current members of the Zhenzhi Society were also at a loss, because this year's new members never showed up.
After finding nothing, Carrot immediately returned to Moon Castle and checked the blood crystal ball that Avis left in the family.
The crystal ball was still intact and emitted a soft light, which meant that Avis's life was in normal condition.
After confirming that Anvis was fine for the time being, Duke Carrot relaxed a little. But after calming down, a raging rage suddenly rose in his heart.
Carlotte casually opened the space passage leading to the trial world and went directly to hold a supervisor accountable.
"Mr. Hall, didn't you promise me that there wouldn't be any accidents? What about now?!"
"There is obviously a special force behind this, Lord Carrot, it is not my mistake."
Outside the collapsed world, Hall opened his golden eyes, broke away from the state of super-sensing search for the enemy, and looked coldly at Carrot who came over with a tough tone.
He was wearing a dark purple noble dress, but due to his unusually muscular bronze muscles, he managed to make the classical dress look like a mercenary's rough temperament.
"A high-level prophet took action to blur the existence of that small world, and also used the time-stopping hourglass refined by a ninth-level extreme powerhouse. If it was any professional below the ninth-level extreme, the result would be the same."
"Hehe... Is this your answer to me, Hall?"
Carrot laughed angrily, and with a clenched right hand, a staff that looked like solidified ice appeared in his hand. Snow and wind suddenly blew in the void, and the temperature began to gradually drop.
"Just because I don't want to engage in a meaningless battle with you doesn't mean I'm afraid of you, Carrot!"
Hall also grasped the hilt of the giant sword, and the light golden light field isolated the wind and snow outside, confronting the enemy head-on.
However, when the battle between the two was about to break out, a new domain force was inserted into it.
"Okay, my Lords, please stop for now. The enemy may still be watching us from the dark."
A gentle female voice sounded, and at the same time, a new domain force was inserted between the two, separating the two who were only in the trial stage.
A beautiful girl wearing a robe and magic hat as bright as the night sky, with waist-length pure golden hair and elf-like pointed ears, and eyes that seemed to contain a nebula, appeared beside the two of them.
She is a senior ninth-level from the Enoch family, the first-generation inheritor of the high elf bloodline, [Silver Moon Traveler] Talina.
Although she looks very young, she is actually thousands of years old.
"Sir Talina, due to his negligence, my child is still missing. Someone must pay the price for this."
Seeing the people from the Enoch family who were best at smoothing things over, the two men put down their weapons again.
"Hmph - that has nothing to do with me. I won't explain it to you a second time!"
"Well, calm down, Mr. Hall."
Talina shook her head and turned to Kalot.
"So, Lord Carrot, how do you want to deal with this?"
"It's very simple. First of all, this attack is a serious provocation to our True Knowledge Society. We must find out the force behind this attack and then completely destroy it to deter all parties."
As he spoke, Carrot looked at Hall with a gloomy face.
"As the supervisor, Hall did not play any role at the critical moment. Not only was he unharmed afterwards, he did not even discover the identity of the enemy."
"I have sufficient reason to suspect that Hall is related to the target of this attack!"
No matter whether it is wrong or not, just put a big hat on it.
"If you don't know how to restrain yourself, arrogant crystal bird, then my sword will teach you that!"
Hall was stunned, and then became furious.
