Here we are?
"Master Sword Saint, what do you mean?"
Qin Xiaoxia is restricted by this body, and his perception range is not very wide, perhaps not as good as the state of direct thought body, but his intuitive sharpness is not affected at all.
"When a place has a special environment or sudden weather changes, there is a high probability that there are demons. My mentor once said that all worlds follow the law of the jungle, and demons' desire for flesh and blood souls is greater than mortals' desire for gold and silver."
Rumble, rumble, rumble…
Hardly had he uttered these words when the ground in the mountains began to shake, and all the pack horses in the camp began to shake uncomfortably.
Such heavy rain is very rare in this mountain area, and excessive rain and hail have caused the mountain to loosen.
“Crack, crack, crack… boom…”
The soil layer on several nearby peaks was broken, and mud and rocks mixed with some vegetation on the mountain collapsed.
“Roar… Roar… Woo…” “Patta, pat, pat…”
Along with the loud noises of landslides and mud-rock flows, there was also a huge roar that echoed strangely in the rain in the mountains.
“Here it comes!”
Qin Xiaoxia shouted in a low voice to warn the people around him, and took the lead to walk into the mixed area of rain and hail.
Compared to Leyte and the people around him who were on high alert after hearing the strange roar, to be honest, Qin Xiaoxia was still a little confused.
In the distance, on the continuous mudslide, there were several monsters that looked like some kind of huge fish, sliding and bumping along with the mudslide, flapping their fins.
Obviously, this world also has instinctive consciousness, which Qin Xiaoxia has verified long ago. Changes in the weather are, to a certain extent, a warning from the world to living things.
However... no matter whether it was the Earth that was full of strange changes or the dangerous and oppressive fallen world of Caslopa, he had never seen such a... funny scene.
Qin Xiaoxia himself is a person with a very strong visual imagination, so when he saw the strange fish "pattering" in the mudslide, he felt like the "Magikarp" in the "Pokemon" when he first watched it as a child.
However, these "fish" are many times bigger, almost as big as a Jinbei car, and the fins on their backs are covered with spikes, and their teeth are also very sharp. They look very ferocious. If they were not on the ground...
The hail and rainstorm in the mountain stream gradually stopped, which allowed the soldiers at the back to not have to hide in the protective range of the tents all the time.
"Master Sword Saint...can we help?"
Seeing that the Sword Saint Degni walked out and stopped there to "admire" a total of three strange fish "bumps", Leit couldn't help but ask cautiously.
Although these three monsters seemed to be moving sluggishly (in fact, they didn't move at all).
But Neillo, Leyte and others dared not be negligent at all. They had experienced the horror of evil spirits both by hearing and seeing them with their own eyes.
"The evil spirits are unlucky this time. If they appeared in the river or the ocean, it would be very troublesome. Unfortunately, they are in the mountains now. You guys can do it!"
Qin Xiaoxia didn't plan to move this time. If this place wasn't inconvenient, he would even give these three strange fish to the Red Banshee as gifts. Anyway, she liked things in the water.
But now, let these guys test their courage.
"good!"
Leit has been eager to try, and since the Sword Saint thinks they can do it, there shouldn't be any problem.
Others were also excited and nervous when they learned about this.
The rain had stopped, but the mountains were now extremely muddy, and the ground was still covered with hailstones that had not yet melted.
“Patta, patta, patta, patta…”
The closer we got to the three strange fish, the more the ground seemed to shake, with mud splashing around like it was raining again.
“Roar…woo…roar woo woo woo woo…”
Qin Xiaoxia sat in the distance and watched these strange fish breathing in and out non-stop. They looked extremely uncomfortable being out of the water, and one of them even jumped and poured muddy water into its mouth.
The strange fish also knows to adjust its posture by shaking and aiming its mouth at the person approaching.
Then a group of dozens of people outside, both civilized people and ordinary soldiers, approached carefully with spears and bows and arrows.
This scene is super dramatic.
Even though the entire attack process was done with caution, both sides were still in disarray. Ordinary arrows would always be deflected by the scales, and even if they hit the target, they would not cause much damage.
The spearmen kept attracting the attention of the monster fish in front, and the main attackers were naturally the two paladins and two demon hunters. With their physical strength, they were able to cause fatal damage to the monster fish, but there were some slight setbacks.
It took about an hour before the noise in the mountain stream finally died down.
“Hoo…Hoo…”
"Master Sword Master!! We did it!"
Leit, who had almost turned into a clay man, walked to the sword master who was sitting on a stone with his heart still beating wildly, his tone was slightly breathless and full of undisguised pride.
However, there was no joy on the Sword Master's face. His indifferent and even serious expression quickly cooled everyone's enthusiasm for victory.
"The joy of defeating a demon is precious, but not every battle will end this way. If it were a different demon and I weren't here, you would have died ten times."
Qin Xiaoxia stood up from the rock he was sitting on and walked towards the camp tent on the side.
"I will have my students select suitable ordinary soldiers and priests to start special training. Although some of the people this time do not have good physical fitness, they are all in a good state of mind. Let them all go together and I will help you improve."
Train? Train!! Get stronger!!
The mud-covered soldiers and priests at the back tried to suppress their excitement, waving their fists and dancing at each other.
"Master Sword Saint, can I go too?"
Leit tried his best to control his tone. Even though the three disciples of the Sword Master had only barely reached the level of enlightened ones at this moment, it also depended on what their foundation was and how long it had been.
It is conceivable that the secret method of the Sword Master will improve not only ordinary people, but everyone, even a paladin like Leyte.
Qin Xiaoxia looked back at him with a smile on his face.
"I will personally teach the enlightened ones."
…
In the city-state of Fanit, a solemn atmosphere lingers.
Blanty and Nighthawk had already escorted the crystal accessories here. Only when they really arrived here did they realize the seriousness of the matter, and it was not just the madness directed at the Qinggele Empire and the Emperor of the Empire.
As the "disaster information" center that has already been mobilized, intelligence information is constantly being sent here from neighboring countries and even all over the world.
There is hardly any good news.
The yellow-grey demons spread wildly, and the Qinggele Empire's military force was directed at its neighboring countries. In addition to the Kingdom of Lensoget, which was facing the pressure of the yellow-grey demon's disaster cloud, the surrounding small countries could not escape the disaster either.
Moreover, the imperial army of the Qinggele Empire began to plunder the property and resources of these countries, especially livestock, and even death row prisoners and ordinary serious criminals in prisons.
Abnormal weather changes occurred in various countries, and many places received information about the appearance of monsters. Although they were not as terrifying as the yellow-gray demons, they also caused a lot of casualties and widespread panic.
What is sad and ridiculous is that there are still some powerful countries that follow the example of the Qinggele Empire and extend their hands of conquest to the small countries bordering their territory at this chaotic time.
The caravans of the United Kingdom of City-States and major merchants were also constantly spreading warnings along the way, urging people to be prepared.
Even though there is a lack of information channels in this world and the speed of information dissemination is very slow, an atmosphere of panic that disaster is approaching has quietly spread among all levels of society in all countries.
