Volume 1 Blacksmith Story Chapter 62 Rescued
Emil just scratched the monster but failed to kill it. From this we can see that it was in a blurred state at that time.
Moreover, after that, the monster obviously had many opportunities to kill Emil, but did not do so. Of course, he didn't think it was this monster who was kind-hearted.
Emil had seen cats prey on mice. The cats never rush to swallow the mice. Instead, they torture them in every way, let them escape, and then chase them up and take them back to their original position.
Over time, the mouse will be tortured and exhausted, and in the end it can only lie on the ground in despair and be slaughtered.
Emil understood that he was now like a desperate mouse. Once he gave up on resistance, or the monster was tired of playing, he would kill him immediately.
But he knew that he was not an ordinary mouse, but a predator with sharp teeth. In his eyes, the other party was the real prey.
At this time, Emil's feet seemed to be stuck in something, making him unable to move, so after thinking about how to deal with the monster, he simply gave up resisting and grabbed the holy sword under his armpits.
Then, the monster indeed launched an attack on him. This time it did not attack from behind, but attacked head-on.
Emil listened to the gust of wind approaching. About half a meter away from his face, he finally took action and pushed the holy sword out from under his armpits.
The next second, the sharp blade accurately stabbed the black shadow, and Emil obviously felt like he was stabbing into some object.
Sure enough, the black shadow immediately let out a creeping scream, and the eyes emitting green light narrowed, as if they were suffering tremendous pain.
Emil naturally had no mercy and twisted the blade hard to vent his anger on the monster.
The increasingly shrill scream made people feel numb, but it was nothing to the hatred of the murder of relatives and fellow villagers.
A few minutes later, Emil simply ravaged the monster to death, but even so, he did not completely relieve his hatred.
His hatred is not only for the monsters that slaughtered the villagers, but also for the entire demon clan.
At this point, his ambition is no longer to make achievements, but to spend the rest of his life to attack the demons and kill them.
Finally, he looked back at his home. Although he was very sad, he did not shed a single tear. Perhaps it had already dried up when Sain died, so all his sadness turned into hatred for the demons.
Then, he saluted the house for a few minutes and left without looking back.
After a while, he unknowingly returned to the square of Jinshi Village. He thought he couldn't call Lilith just now because he forgot her in the square, but found that it was empty.
Only then did he remember that in order to facilitate movement, he specially put Lilith into the ring.
But later, when he was in danger of his life, Lilith did not appear and could not scream. He couldn't help but wonder, could the contract have expired?
If this is true, then he will be in trouble. There may be other monsters lurking here, and even if he can leave the village smoothly, there will be more monsters waiting for him on the way to Blackpool Town.
Even with the help of the Holy Sword, how could he, an ordinary person who knows nothing about swordsmanship, escape?
When he thought of this, Emil finally fell into despair. He was really exhausted this time.
However, after he had just stayed there for a few minutes, he heard the howling wind again, just like the sound of the monster moving before, and this time the sound was even louder, as if it was indicating that more than one monster was attacking.
"Tsk, these bastards!"
Emil couldn't help but curse, and he quickly looked in the direction where the sound came. Sure enough, under the faint moonlight, several dark figures were approaching.
This scene reminded him of the time when he was besieged by monsters on the way to join the army. He also took a lot of effort to kill a monster, but it attracted more. Fortunately, Ophelia saved the scene so she would not die there.
But now Ophelia doesn't know where she is, and even her life and death are unknown. Who else can she rely on?
Soon, he was surrounded by black shadows. These monsters were only about one meter away from him. They looked at the weak boy and were in a hurry to take action.
The monsters originally only showed their eyes, but now they seemed to be mocking Emil's weakness. They actually opened their mouths and made strange laughs, like a demon's whisper.
At this time, the only thing Emil could rely on was the holy sword in his hand. He gently stroked the sword body. Although he didn't know how to get recognition, he had no other choice but to try everything he could.
"Great Holy Sword, I pray here devoutly, hoping to save me from danger." Emil murmured in his heart.
But after a while, the Holy Sword still had no reaction. Emil couldn't help but smile bitterly. Only then did he realize that he was relying on something illusory. Even if the Holy Sword recognized him and thus gave birth to an independent consciousness, he could not help him get out of the predicament.
At the same time, the dark shadows around him burst into laughter. The sounds made Emil both annoyed and angry. He simply made up his mind and decided to fight against these monsters.
He raised his holy sword and rushed forward. At this time, he was like a weak but sharp-fanged mouse, attacking a group of cats staring at them.
Of course, the monsters didn't want to be cut, and they all blurred their bodies, and Emil's sword penetrated through the transparent body.
As a result, a gap appeared in the encirclement, and Emil saw a glimmer of vitality, so he immediately made a decision and escaped.
Somehow, his body was not fixed by the monsters, and maybe these monsters were careless.
Then he walked through the square and ran around the alley between the houses, hoping to get rid of the monster's pursuit.
The dark night made him unable to see the road, so he always bumped into it. Sometimes he was tripped by something on the ground, his nose was bleeding, and his head became groggy because it hit the ground.
But he didn't stop at all, and immediately got up, traveled through the house based on his past memories. After about ten minutes, he dared to look back.
He really hoped that the monsters would not catch up, but when he glanced behind him, he realized how innocent his thoughts were. The monsters followed him tightly like maggots attached to bones, and their bodies were able to penetrate the wall after they became empty.
"Tsk, now I'm dead."
Emil collapsed to the ground with exhaustion. He had no strength to run away again and could only be slaughtered.
He didn't expect that he had watched the mouse be tortured to death by a cat, but now he is on the side of the mouse.
One of the monsters saw that the prey compromised, and finally couldn't help but feel bloodthirsty desire and rushed towards Emil.
It has the lowest status among its kind, so every time it hunts, you have to obey the orders of other monsters.
The same is true this time. They made up their minds to torture Emil, so they were not in a hurry to do it. If anyone takes action at this time, he will become the target of public criticism.
They said they would take action after they were tired of playing, but at this time, the low-ranking monster looked at Emil's weak face and became extremely excited and could no longer care about the same orders.
However, when it approached Emil's body, the young man's eyes instantly became fierce, and he changed his weak appearance just now. Then the holy sword stabbed out and hit the monster's heart.
"Woo--"
The monster let out a shrill scream and soon lost its breath.
Seeing this, the other monsters were frightened. They no longer dared to continue playing and planned to go up together and tear Emil to pieces.
"Hmph, come here and die. I don't have to queue up here." Emil said viciously.
However, these monsters are very smart. Some of them blur the body to confuse Emil's audio-visuality, and the other part goes around him and turns into entities to launch an attack.
This is truly a seamless strategy, and Emile will inevitably be unable to escape.
At the critical moment, the holy sword in his hand suddenly reacted. Although he was not exerting force, he found that the holy sword was moving, and the surface began to emit light, and the sword blade was shaking, as if the whole sword was about to fly.
This phenomenon scared all the monsters around them. They remembered that there was a white knight's sword before, and in the end, most of their kind died under the sword of the knight.
However, just as they felt afraid and wanted to retreat, the light on the surface of the Holy Sword suddenly disappeared and everything returned to peace.
“…ah this.”
Emil stared at the holy sword in his hand, looking disbelief.
For a moment, he thought that the Holy Sword had an independent consciousness, and then he would pass on the powerful sword technique into his mind through some thoughts, allowing him to kill all directions.
But unexpectedly, there was a loud thunder and a little rain in the end. Emil couldn't help but complain, "This is too useless. Can't we have to use it to cut melons and vegetables without gaining the recognition of the Holy Sword?"
Strangely, the surrounding monsters did not laugh at this awkward scene anymore. They seemed to realize the threat and decided to get rid of Emil quickly.
Faced with such desperate situation, Emil could only close his eyes and wait for the arrival of death. He silently recited in his heart, farewell to this world forever.
"Ha ha."
However, a silver bell-like laugh suddenly rang on a roof, sounding like a young girl.
But the monster did not pay attention to the girl's laughter, but followed the strategy just now, and part of it went around behind Emil and turned into a physical body. His strong arms were about to pinch his neck.
But the next moment, they collided, because Emil's body suddenly disappeared.
The messy monster finally got up and looked around, but couldn't find the prey for a while.
Just when they were confused, a piece of paper less than the size of a palm was spinning in the air and flew in front of them.
The monster made unknown calls, as if asking the same person what the situation was, but in response it was the same call.
Immediately afterwards, the piece of paper hovered in the air, and somehow emitted a glimmer of light. You can see a tiny magic array pattern in it.
As time went by, the light on the paper became more and more dazzling, and finally a larger magic array was projected onto the ground, and the monsters were shrouded.
Even so, they still don’t know what happened, maybe because they are too weak to perceive the traces of magic around them.
The next moment, the large magic circle on the ground burst into light green light, swallowing all the monsters' bodies, regardless of whether they turned into entities or not.
