Second candy
The mercenary team continued to advance.
Compared to their previous casual appearance, the mercenaries now held their weapons tightly and were extremely vigilant.
Vilt, Sofia, and Sofia's maid were protected in the center of the group. The Q&A session between Vilt and Sofia had long since concluded, and the atmosphere between them had become much quieter. Even if the Q&A session hadn't ended, Sofia wasn't in the mood for an interview. She still covered her mouth and nose with a perfumed handkerchief, her other hand tightly grasping her maid's wrist.
The maid and Sophia supported each other. It was really hard for them to digest the bloody and cruel scene they encountered when they left their country for the first time.
In their ears, the distant cries of monsters came one after another, the corpses of monsters decreased, and the mercenary team encountered two monsters fighting.
Bandusli gestured, and the mercenaries hid. Violet looked toward the scene of the monster fight, but then looked away.
Those were two mid-level magical beasts that were evolving into high-level ones.
"Ayton, see if it's these two." Bandusli commanded.
This time, Eaton took out not the instrument used to detect the concentration of magic elements, but another one. The electrodes of the instrument captured the direction of the battle, and the magic elements were absorbed and turned into two antennas, purple and blue.
"Good luck." Bandusli narrowed her eyes. Before setting off, she asked Eaton to use a detector to find the location of the thunder elemental monster. She thought she still had to walk a long distance, but she didn't expect to encounter it now.
If there hadn't been a period of unrest, the mercenary team would have had to travel two days and two nights to encounter a lightning elemental monster. Now, the mercenary team had not only encountered their target, but also witnessed the internal fighting among the monsters. Perhaps they could actually escape with a high-level magic crystal.
"Where is the princess?" Bandusli looked around the mercenary team and didn't see Sophia. Her expression became a little serious.
"The princess was taken aside by her maid to vomit," said the healing magician in the mercenary team, "and Dina went with her."
"Yeah." Bandusili breathed a sigh of relief, and when she heard that the princess was protected, her attention returned to the monster.
The battles between monsters are endless, and monsters of the same level often suffer losses on both sides.
Bandusli was waiting for the moment when one of the monsters died.
While waiting, Bandusili whispered the battle plan to Evelyn and the mercenaries.
Violet listened with little interest. She sat casually under the tree, with one leg bent and her arm lazily resting on her knee.
After listening to the mercenary team's "sneak attack plan", Vilt felt a little bored and closed her eyes to deal with her own affairs.
Vilt unleashed her dragon breath, which spread outward, instantly covering half the forest. Vilt wasn't worried about being discovered. Even if she transformed into a dragon in front of the mercenaries, they would simply think it was the magician White.
This is how the magical world is, strength determines everything.
Velt was searching for a magical beast that could help her complete her mission. She picked and chose from a variety of high-level magical beasts, and finally chose a flying, winged beast. However, she didn't immediately establish contact with the beast. Firstly, she wasn't sure when the mercenary group would end, and secondly, she didn't know whether the mercenaries would rest or continue their journey after obtaining the magic crystal.
Her plan required an audience, and Violet didn't want to cause any trouble later.
After marking the winged beast with dragon breath, Vilt opened her eyes. Sophia, having finished vomiting, came over, her face pale. Perhaps she was just used to the smell, or something, but Sophia, supported by a maid, sat down, no longer using a perfumed handkerchief to mask the bloody scent.
"If I had known I would have gone to the auction instead of suffering this," Sophia said weakly.
"Your Highness." The maid carefully handed Sophia some water. Her eyes quickly swept over Vilt's face. Seeing that Vilt's attention was not there, the maid lowered her voice and said, "But didn't you say that you wanted to obtain the magic crystal from the monster yourself?"
Sophia glared at the maid angrily, "How could I have known things would turn out like this."
The battle between the monsters not far away was drawing to a close. Bandusli assembled her mercenaries and prepared to attack. Before she attacked, she thought of something and walked over to Sophia. "Your Highness, do you need me to deliver the final blow to that lightning monster?"
The elements of Warcraft are easy to distinguish, and can be seen by the colors that appear on their bodies.
However, when Sophia heard Bandusli's words, she looked up. The first thing she saw was not the color of the monster, but the wounds on its body that were torn to the bone by its claws and fangs. A huge gap was torn on the neck of the thunder elemental monster.
The sudden visual impact made Sophia see pieces of flesh and internal organs. She quickly looked away and covered her mouth, almost vomiting again.
Sophia was speechless. She waved her hand and told Bandusli to leave quickly.
Bandusli did not force it. She quickly returned to the mercenary team and commanded the mercenaries to attack the thunder elemental monster.
Although the two monsters were at the end of their strength, they were about to enter a higher level and were much more difficult to deal with than the monsters the mercenary team had encountered before.
The mercenaries had known each other for many years and had completed many missions together, so they had formed a tacit understanding early on. Needless to say, the mercenaries could deploy their troops according to the battle situation. Evelyn was not familiar with them, so she simply provided support from the outside.
The outcome of the battle between the monsters was about to be decided, when a group of humans suddenly appeared in front of them. The two monsters stopped at the same time and began to unite to face the enemy!
Violet and Sophia hid off to the side, not far from the battlefield. The monsters attacked the humans mercilessly. From time to time, earthquakes and flying sand and rocks struck the corner where they hid.
Violet grabbed the hood of Sophia's cloak and led the group around a fallen tree.
Not far away, Evelyn withdrew her gaze and roughly wrapped two branches with fire elements. The branches flew forward and suddenly pierced the eyes of the two monsters.
The monsters lost their vision and went crazy instantly, but they were already at the end of their strength. After roaring wildly, they actually collided with each other. The thunder element monster, which was more seriously injured, died instantly, and the fire element monster also collapsed on the ground half-dead.
The mercenary team seized the opportunity, eliminated the fire elemental monsters, and dug out the magic crystals from the two monsters with their bare hands.
Evelyn ignored the mercenaries' disembowelment. She quickly walked over to Vilt and carefully examined the figure from head to toe. "Are you okay?"
"No, it's safe here," Violet replied.
Sophia on the side looked a little dusty, but facing Evelin, she still raised her chin slightly, with a forced noble look.
Evelyn ignored her as before, frowned slightly, and asked Vilt, "Should we continue moving forward?"
The scene where she saw Violet grabbing Sophia to avoid danger still remained in Evelin's mind. She felt inexplicably uneasy and always felt that something would happen if she continued to move forward.
But what could possibly happen? With her protection, Velvet wouldn't be harmed in the slightest.
The mercenary team has nothing to do with them, and Evelyn will not have any emotional fluctuations because of this.
Evelin couldn’t figure it out.
At this time, Bandusli came over with two crystals and handed one to Sophia. "Your Highness, I have fulfilled your mission."
The magic beast killed by the mercenary team was of intermediate level and about to evolve to high level, and the magic crystals in its body were of the same quality.
The texture of this magic crystal was much purer than the mid-level magic crystals Sophia had seen. She smiled happily and felt that the suffering she had endured before was not so painful. "When we get out of the forest and settle the accounts, I will give you an extra 200,000 gold coins." Sophia said generously.
"Thank you, Princess!" When the mercenaries who were resting on the side heard that Sophia wanted to pay more, they thanked her sincerely, thinking that all her previous mischief could be forgiven because of the 200,000 gold coins.
After handing over the Lightning Elemental Magic Crystal, Bandusli gave the other Fire Elemental Magic Crystal to Evelyn. "Thank you for your care along the way. Our mercenary team doesn't have much to offer except this magic crystal. I hope you don't mind."
Bandusili's idea is very pragmatic. Even if they end up on different paths and not being teammates with a powerful magician like Evelyn, they will not suffer any loss as long as they maintain a good relationship.
Evelyn looked at the magic crystal Bandusli handed over and shook her head. "Captain, you can guess my origins. To be honest, I don't need such a magic crystal." She smiled and refused. "Compared to the magic crystal, I care more about my White's Baise Leaf."
Evelin spoke in a nonchalant tone, and Sophia curled her lips inconspicuously beside her.
Seeing Evelin's serious expression, Bandusli sighed, "Alright. The mercenary team plans to rest here for a while. I'll have a few people go with White to pick Baise leaves."
"Okay, I'll follow." Evelin said.
"You can rest here." Violet said to Evelyn.
Evelin always obeyed Violet's arrangements. She tilted her head and replied, "Okay."
"I want to go too." Sophia raised her hand to join in. She hadn't put away the lightning elemental magic crystal yet. As she shook the magic crystal, a purple quicksand-like substance flowed inside. At the same time, she leaned closer to Violet. "What does the Baise Leaf you want look like? I can help you find it."
Violet didn't refuse.
Sophia might be a useful witness, but Violet's mental health was not a consideration.
"Your Highness, w... Although White is going to pick herbs, the risks ahead are unknown. Who knows if he will encounter some headless, broken limbs, or monster corpses with intestines and organs spilling all over the ground. If you vomit again on the way, who will take care of you?" Evelyn said slowly, squinting her eyes and watching Sophia's face turn paler with each name of the corpse she mentioned.
It was one thing not to bother with Sophia, but Evelyn couldn't let her follow behind Violet either.
Bandusili couldn't control the princess's actions, and Sofia wouldn't listen to her advice, so she simply went over to the mercenaries and selected two mercenaries who were picking the baise leaves with Violet. One of the two mercenaries wielded a longsword, the other a heavy sword.
Sophia looked hesitant. Although she wanted to go with Violet, she was frightened by what Evelyn said. She had seen many broken corpses of monsters along the way, and every word Evelyn said could clearly appear in her mind.
But because it was Evelin who said these words, Sophia was a little unconvinced. Why did she think she would still be scared by those things? Besides, Evelin could kill monsters, so wouldn't it be even more embarrassing for her to not even dare to look at a corpse?
Sophia said with all her might, "Who needs someone to take care of me? I'm a magician too, I can protect you too!"
Sophia's words would have been more convincing if her body hadn't been shaking.
At this time, Bandusli came over and asked Wei Erte, "Have you discussed it?"
"We've agreed that I will protect White," said Sophia.
"Okay." Bandusili nodded. She didn't quite believe Sophia's words, but she gave Her Royal Highness the princess enough face and didn't show it. "Do you want to rest for a while? Or should we set off immediately?"
"Don't your team members need to rest?" asked Violet.
Bandusli was a little surprised that Vilt cared about the mercenaries. She shook her head and said, "We plan to rest here for two hours first. If you're fast, we'll have time to rest after you come back. If you're not fast, we can let them rest for another half an hour after you come back. But the road ahead is unknown, and resting here may not be safe."
Sophia was worried about the unknown road ahead. While preparing herself mentally, she listened to Bandusili's words intermittently. When she heard her last sentence, Sophia immediately got angry, "Are you still going to go inside?
"Besides my magic crystal, don't you have another intermediate-level magic crystal that is about to evolve to a high-level one? Why do you still want to go deep into it?" Sophie asked.
"Your Highness, I'm sorry. But you also know that the gap between mid-level magic crystals and high-level magic crystals is huge. The opportunity is right in front of me, and I have no reason to let my mercenary team give up."
"What's your reason? Isn't the extra 200,000 I gave you enough? Your mission is to help me get the magic crystal and then send me out of the forest safely. Now it's time to return. I order you to wait for White and I to return, and then you must send me out. I will not continue with you, nor will I go to die with you!"
"Your Highness, I'm sorry." Bandusli still apologized.
"I'm your employer, I have the final say. She doesn't listen to me? You don't listen to me either?" Sofia and Bandusili exchanged high voices, the mercenaries clearly hearing them. Sofia's last words were clearly a question to the mercenaries, but she was bound to be disappointed. The mercenaries only followed Bandusili's orders.
Two outsiders, Violet and Evely, were among them. They looked at each other and continued to remain silent.
Sophia was furious. She was isolated and helpless with only one maid who listened to her. But her maid needed her protection when she was in danger.
If it were normal, Sophia would have left on her own, but now the monsters were raging in the forest and dangers were lurking everywhere. Sophia didn't know what kind of situation she and her maid would encounter if they left, and whether she could handle it.
After being sulking for a long time, Sophia threw her handkerchief to the ground and stomped her feet a few times to vent her anger.
Along the way, Bandusli knew how to deal with Sophia when she was angry.
Leave her alone to vent her anger first. If someone pays attention to her and offends her, it will be endless.
Bandusli smiled apologetically at Evelyn and Violet, "What are your plans after you gather the Baise Leaves?"
"We'll leave after picking the Baise leaves," said Violet.
Vilt's words were like a switch, and Sophia stopped moving. "White, I'm going with you." Then she snorted coldly at Bandusili, "I don't need you. If you want to die, go ahead. I can save some money!"
Bandusili's expression remained unchanged, as if she hadn't heard Sophia's words. "Okay, I'll assign four people to escort Your Highness and the two of you away."
“Who wants you…”
"Captain!" Sophia's stubborn words were interrupted by the serious voice of the mercenary team.
Knowing what her team members were about to say, Bandusili waved her hand. "Her Royal Highness is our employer, and I still want to earn this money. Don't worry, I know my limits."
"Hmph." Sophia snorted, but didn't say anything else.
Seeing Sophia calm down, Bandusili asked, "Your Highness, are you satisfied with these two people?"
"It's just so-so." Sophia raised her chin slightly, looking very proud.
"Do you need to re-select candidates?"
"No, that's it."
"Let's go." Violet said to Evelyn.
“Okay.” Evelyn nodded and glanced at the mercenaries standing next to her who were about to collect the Baise Leaves with Violet. The two mercenaries stood there expressionlessly, but their eyes gradually showed contempt for Violet.
Evelyn frowned, feeling extremely worried. "Are you sure you don't need me to follow you? I won't talk about Her Royal Highness the Princess, but those two mercenaries don't look reliable either." She leaned close to Vilt's ear and spoke in a low voice.
"I don't really plan to ask them for help. It's good that the two mercenaries can be alert and avoid risks. Besides, they are right next to us and will be collected soon. Don't worry." Vilt smiled, but her eyes were always looking at the patch of colorful leaves not far away, not meeting Evelyn's eyes.
“But I…” Evelin’s uneasiness surfaced again, but she was afraid that her words would become a prophecy, so she pursed her lower lip with a conflicted expression, “Don’t go too far.”
"Um."
The mercenary swordsman saw Vilt and Evelyn talking endlessly, and he curled his lips. They weren't particularly happy protecting a commoner like Vilt in the first place, and he wouldn't have come if it weren't for the captain's orders. But now, with Sofia watching closely, the swordsman felt the princess might bite if he didn't speak with the right tone, so he remained polite and said, "Shall we go, Mr. White?"
"Here I am." Violet raised her hand. "Although I'm not very powerful, I've always been lucky. I have not only the scroll you gave me, but also the lucky coin." After she finished speaking, she lightly pointed to the pocket on her chest and smiled.
Winking at Evelyn, Vilt walked away with the mercenaries and Sophia.
"Lucky coin." Evelyn puffed her cheeks. Violet's actions just now were clearly reproduced in her mind. Evelyn kept watching Violet's back as she left until the group disappeared into the forest. She hummed softly, "Yes, you are still thinking about meeting Princess Evelyn."
Obviously, this Evelin is that Evelin, but a strange feeling still arises in Evelin's heart.
Should I find a time to tell Violet my identity? Will she believe it?
There were small clusters of white leaves where the mercenaries rested. Following the direction in which the herbs grew, Violet would look down from time to time to search.
"White, what does Baise Ye look like? I've never seen it before." Seeing that Vilt had been observing, Sophia came up to Vilt and asked curiously.
Violet took out a papyrus with the shape of a baise leaf drawn on it. This paper was different from the one Violet showed Evelyn. There was no magic-related content on the paper. It only had the shape of a baise leaf drawn on it, and the special features of the leaf were magnified and marked.
Sophia took the paper and studied it, looking down at the ground like Violet did, but in her eyes, there was no difference between the green weeds, plants and white leaves.
"Over there." Violet gestured for Sophia to look at the ground not far away. "The one with the serrated leaves in the middle is the Baise leaf."
Sophia looked in the direction Vilt pointed and estimated the time they had left. "Yeah, it's pretty close." They had only been walking for less than ten minutes.
"Yeah." Violet walked forward and squatted down.
From a distance, there seemed to be a lot of Baise leaves in good condition, but as Violet got closer, she found that although these Baise leaves were not contaminated by the blood of the monsters, many of them were overwhelmed by the fighting between the monsters. The most valuable part of the Baise leaves was the juice squeezed from the stems and leaves, and the juice lost from the broken stems and leaves was of no use.
"These can't be used. We have to go further inside."
"Okay." Sophia listened to Violet's words very carefully and asked as they walked, "What do you want these things for? To treat illnesses? Are you a doctor besides being a magician?"
"I need Baiseye as props for my new magic trick."
"A new magic trick. You're so amazing and you can even develop magic tricks. Where do you usually perform? Will you perform again when we get out of the forest? Evelyn actually agreed. I want to see you perform, too."
"I won't be performing outside while I'm developing magic," said Violet.
"All right."
The group walked forward for a while, and this time they encountered Baise Ye who met Violet's requirements.
Violet drew a dagger from her waist and picked out the ones that were growing well, collecting a lot of them with their roots intact.
The reason why the Baise leaves are not rooted is that they can continue to grow in the forest, and the reason why they are rooted is that she can take some out and plant them herself without having to dig them up in the forest again.
Sophia could already recognize Baise Ye, but even if she didn't, it didn't matter. She would just follow Violet and dig wherever she did, and there would be no mistakes.
However, just as Sophia squatted down beside Violet and took out a knife to cut twice, Violet stopped her, "Your Highness, I'll do it myself."
"I can help you," Sophia said.
Vilt didn't say anything, but just let Sophia look at the herbs in her hand and her own hand - the Baise leaves in Vilt's hand were in perfect shape, and even the roots were dug out to protect the roots and soil very well; while the Baise leaves in Sophia's hand were either half-cut off and were crumbling, or the roots were split in half from the middle.
So Sophia gave up decisively, she stood up, turned around and saw the mercenary standing aside with his hands folded.
"I was wondering why something was missing." Sophia threw the destroyed herbs aside and walked up to the mercenary with a dagger in hand. "Hey, what are you two doing standing here? Help me."
"Your Highness, we are here to protect you and Mr. White. We need to carefully observe the changes in the surroundings." The mercenary swordsman had a good reason. As he spoke, he raised his hand and grasped the hilt of the long sword hanging on his waist.
"Really?" Sophia sneered and thrust the dagger in her hand into the swordsman's hand without further ado. "I'll observe the surroundings and protect you now. Go."
What a joke! The swordsman opened his eyes wide in surprise. He was a mercenary who followed the captain through life and death to complete dangerous missions. His hands were used to hold weapons and kill targets, not to use a dagger to collect worthless wild vegetables for ordinary people.
"Your Highness..." The swordsman gritted his teeth, about to say something. His companion, observing Sophia's expression, nudged him and said with a smooth smile, "Alright, Your Highness, you can rest here. We'll follow."
"The sooner we finish digging, the sooner we'll be done with it." Another mercenary signaled the swordsman with his eyes not to disobey his employer and spoke in a low voice.
The swordsman tilted his head in dissatisfaction, grabbed the dagger, and started digging the white leaves from a distance away from Violet.
Both mercenaries could hear what Vilt and Sophia said. There were not many types of plants here, and it was easy to distinguish between the Baise leaves and the others.
The swordsman kept his distance from Vilt. Another mercenary came up to Vilt and said with a smile, "Your name is White?"
Violet paused, glanced sideways at the mercenary, and nodded.
"My name is Luke, and I'm the heavy swordsman of the mercenary team." Luke introduced himself with a smile. Seeing that Violet was familiar with digging herbs without moving her hands, he asked, "Can you show me what the herbs you need look like?"
Violet handed the papyrus to Luke, who took it and twisted it curiously.
After handing over the papyrus, Vilt took care of the Baise Leaf in her hand while using the Baise Leaf as an anchor to allow the dragon's breath to spread out.
This dragon's breath was directional, and Vilt soon found the long-winged beast that she had marked before and gave it orders.
After giving the order to retract the dragon's breath, Vilt heard Luke's questioning voice, "This paper is very precious. How much did you pay for it?"
Luke looked at the papyrus carefully, with curiosity and wonder in his eyes.
"It was given to me by someone else and I didn't spend any money on it," said Violet.
This was true. Violet hadn't lied. She had once performed magic for a wealthy merchant, and when she paid for it, she had specifically asked for paper. The merchant was surprised, but happy to accept the paper as a deduction for his payment. After all, papyrus, which was readily available to them, was worthless.
Luke's thoughts were clearly elsewhere when he heard Violet's words. He curled his lips in a subtle sneer. "It was given to me by someone else. Who else but that noble lady would give me such expensive paper?" "What a lucky guy!"
"My friend is a bit stubborn. Don't bother with him. He's just like that." Luke racked his brains for words, hoping to get closer to Whitey so he could gain some benefits. "He's just jealous of you and that noble lady together."
Violet frowned. She didn't like the tone this person used when he mentioned Evelyn.
Luke was good at reading people's expressions. Seeing that Violet's face had turned cold, he cut his losses in time and asked, "Are you leaving after picking this herb?"
“Yes,” Vilt said, glancing at what Luke was holding. The leaves he had dug weren’t as good as Sofia’s. She looked away and stood up. She pulled a rope from her pocket, tied up the leaves, and put them in her bag. “We’re done collecting. We can go back now.”
The swordsman on the other side also stopped when he heard Violet's voice. There were also many processed Baise leaves at his feet.
The swordsman still looked unhappy. He didn't say anything and didn't care about the pile of herbs. He silently patted the dirt off his body and hands and walked to Sophia.
Violet was a little surprised. She didn't expect this person to do his job well.
"Thank you." Violet always sticks to the facts. She thanked the swordsman and stepped forward to collect the colorful leaves on the ground.
At this moment, a fierce howl suddenly came from afar, the wind blew violently, dark clouds covered the sky, and something was roaring from the sky.
"What's wrong! Is there a monster?" Sophia's scream came from behind Vilt.
"It's a winged beast!" The mercenary reacted quickly, his voice full of vigilance.
Compared with the magical beasts on land, the magical beasts in the air are much more difficult to deal with.
The most indifferent one was Vierte. She was the one who summoned the monster. As long as they met, they would be captured without any resistance.
Just as Vilt had planned, the winged beast had huge wings that could cover all of their heads when spread out. The forest was densely covered with trees, so the winged beast's wings could not be spread out and were half curled up. Even so, it was still very fast.
Sophia found a place to hide, and the longsword mercenary drew out his sword and prepared to fight the winged beast with a serious expression.
Just as the winged beast leaned over and rushed towards Vilt, Vilt clearly felt a hand pushing her hard on the back.
"White—"
Sophia's voice and the sound of the long-winged beast's claws piercing her shoulder rang in Vilt's ears at the same time. Vilt had calculated that her shoulder would be injured, but she didn't expect to be ambushed. What was originally just a minor injury of a broken shoulder turned into most of the long-winged beast's claws piercing her shoulder.
There must be a hole in her shoulder blade.
Vilt could clearly feel herself being taken away by the winged beast, and could also clearly feel the blood flowing out of the wound and the wind blowing through the gaps in the wound.
The dragon has no iron bones, it is also a mortal body. If it bleeds too much, it will die.
But Violet didn't think about whether she would die if the plan went awry. She didn't even think about who was pushing her from behind.
She thought that the blood loss was much more than planned, and Evelin would probably be worried to death if she saw it.
In the forest.
Sophia looked at Luke in shock, "You actually pushed White!"
"Your Highness, you misunderstood. I tried to hold him back, but I failed."
"You think I'm blind!" Sophia stared at Luke, then turned to ask the swordsman, "You saw it too, didn't you? He was the one who pushed White. He was afraid the long-winged beast would catch him, so he made White the scapegoat!"
"Your Highness, I have no grudge against that magician, why would I want to harm him?" Luke asked calmly.
The swordsman remained silent, only glancing at Luke obscurely, then at the pool of blood on the ground and the colorful leaves he had picked not far away.
Sophia was about to say something when she heard a burst of messy footsteps not far away.
White had just been captured by a monster in front of her. Sophia couldn't tell for a moment whether it was a monster or a human. She looked back in panic and saw Evelyn leading the group. She breathed a sigh of relief.
Ignoring her various arguments with Evelin, Sophia anxiously said, "White was captured by the winged beast!"
"How did the winged beast appear here? Did you fight it?" Bandusli asked the swordsman and Luke while asking the mercenaries to check whether the surroundings were safe. She didn't think the princess could explain the whole story.
However, unlike what Bandusli had expected, the swordsman remained silent, and Luke hesitated.
Ever since Evelyn heard the voice of the winged beast, the uneasiness in her heart surged up like a tide. She and the mercenaries came to the place where Violet was picking the Baise leaves. The mercenaries and Sophia were there, but the person she cared about the most was missing.
Evelyn's mind went blank for a moment.
Bandusli's voice and Sophia's voice mingled in the blank busy tone, a chaotic mess that made Evelyn uneasy. How could it be possible? How could a monster in this forest dare to attack Velvet? Did she have some plan? But during the monster's agitation, nothing could be predicted. What if a monster went crazy? And Velvet didn't use her abilities in front of those people? What if...
Evelin didn’t dare to think about it.
Evelin's gaze stopped at a pool of blood that looked like a puddle not far away, next to the Baise leaves that had been picked but had not yet been sorted.
With so much blood, how painful would Violet be? Evelin felt like she couldn’t breathe.
"It's Luke! He pushed White! He wanted White to be the scapegoat!" Sophia's voice made Evelyn's head hurt, and the tense string in Evelyn's head suddenly broke.
"How dare you!" Evelyn suddenly appeared in front of Luke. She reached out and grabbed the other's collar without mercy. The clothes at the collar became a suffocating rope that strangled Luke's neck. Luke's face soon turned purple due to suffocation.
Evelyn wished that this person would die right before her eyes. She even used fire magic, which caused a burning and suffocating sensation. Luke started rolling his eyes.
"Evelyn! Calm down! Saving people is the most important thing! I'll give you an explanation when we find White." Seeing that Luke's struggles were getting weaker and weaker, Bandusli was worried that Evelyn would strangle him to death, so she stopped him.
“I need you to explain to me?!” Evelin said bluntly.
Evelyn didn't give Bandusili a good look. When she looked at Sophia, her expression was also cold and fierce. When Vilt got into trouble, she was surrounded by enemies.
"Which way is the monster flying?"
Sophia's legs softened when Evelin looked at her, and she pointed in a direction with a trembling voice, "Over there—"
