Chapter 573 Witch
The wild vegetables in the area have almost been collected, and the Silver Knight has left for a while. Although the sun is still hanging high in the sky, as time goes by, the monster-shaped dead souls make everyone who stops from the busyness more and more uneasy. In desperation, he is afraid that someone will not be able to help but escape, causing trouble and danger to everyone, Xia An can only gather the five children who came out with him together and teach them to sing songs.
The effect was very significant. Even the four people of her age were relieved of the singing and joined in, but they didn't know what was thousands of times more dangerous than the controlled undead, and were quickly approaching with their singing.
———
The woods are not dense, but for some reason, even with plenty of sunshine, they are still shining with gloomy, as if something will rush out at any time to kill the lives of living people. In addition, the enemies behind them who may catch up at any time, the officers and soldiers of the fleeing island alliance were all in extreme fear.
Then, a sweet song suddenly floated in the breeze, and all the tense people were as crazy as if they had heard the gospel from the God Realm. They no longer care about the superiors and inferiors. They all used their last strength to rush towards the songs that were still coming.
Unfortunately, the first person saw that the beautiful angel who was not descending to earth, and in that moment of shock, as Natsuo turned into a harsh scream, he permanently lost control of his body.
The few people who arrived then fell under the sharp claws of the ghouls without accident. Until several officers were reminded by screams, they barely held their attack after entering the defense range of the ghouls. They worked with the people who arrived later to kill several lonely ones and confronted the remaining ghouls. At the same time, they also angrily stared at the ten civilians surrounded by them and were hugging each other.
"You damn untouchables dare to collude with the undead to harm the soldiers of the Alliance... On the contrary, we will go up together and chop them up the things that betrayed humans and those damn bones into powder. First, get some interest for the dead companions, then kill out of this ghost place, bring people back to take revenge, and drive the untouchables out of our territory." Under the protection of several personal guards, the commander who finally arrived roared in frustration and rushed towards the total of less than twenty undeads in front of him. It was not that he was brave, but that there were a few ghouls lying on the ground, so that he knew that his opponent was not that powerful this time, and that the untouchables in front of him could be used to inspire morale that was almost negative.
No normal person would have a good impression of the undead. With the commander's encouragement, facing the weak opponent, the angry crowd became violent and blamed the ten people who were obviously protected by the undead. No matter how young they were, they ignored their more frightened expressions than themselves. They were sprinkled with wild vegetables all over the ground; everyone seemed to turn into heroes in epic at the same time, and bravely rushed towards the weak and helpless in front of them, and to them, they were still ten children.
———
Everything was fine a few minutes ago, and everyone had a rare joy in the singing. They temporarily forgot the terrible guards around them, but for some reason the ghouls became irritable and then the terrifying thing happened...
Seeing the hideous guards being cruelly cut into pieces by their own kind in order to protect themselves and others, Xia An suddenly felt that they were not as scary as they looked, and they were so pitiful than the compatriots standing in front of him at this moment.
Recalling these days in the Lord's Mansion, except for not having much freedom, I couldn't finish eating meat, had no time to change into new clothes, had a comfortable bed that I couldn't sleep enough, and a beautiful room that I couldn't divide... In short, everything was a bit like a dream I often had when I was a child, so good that I couldn't imagine it.
"Maybe this is really a dream,... Lord Silver Knight, I really want to see how you take off your mask... I hope the people in the lord's mansion can live safely like now... I hope my brother can grow up well..."
The guards had fallen down, and this time they would definitely not be able to escape. Xia An, who was unwilling to die meaninglessly, thought of the bright future that his younger brother might have, stood up with a smile, blocked everyone's front, grabbed the spear that pierced the belly, stared at these similar people in front of him, hoping to gain some time for the silver knight to come back to save his others.
———
It was hard to tell what it felt. When the spear penetrated into the other person's body, the angry soldier calmed down and then when he saw the smile on the plain face, he was scared.
At the same time, a strange atmosphere formed so strangely. The others who killed all the ghouls turned their attention to the girl in front, but there was no one who dared to step forward at all. They were stunned as if time had stopped.
The most difficult thing is to understand. Many times, even though you know that you are wrong, you will still persevere. In order to make up for the guilt of making mistakes, you will often create a high-sounding reason for yourself.
After venting his resentment from the ghoul, everyone actually understood that the children in front of him were innocent, but the mistakes could not be reversed. So in order not to be overwhelmed by their conscience, who deceived themselves and gently revealed the word "witch". Then the title spread among the crowd.
There was no need for the commander to incite again, and I don’t know if it was deliberately deviating from the heart. Another spear pierced into the girl’s abdomen, but the girl still insisted on not falling down. She used one hand to grab the second spear tightly to support her body.
The condemnation of conscience slowly turned into fear, and more spears stabbed at the "witch" who did not want to fall down. But just as the girl who had lost too much blood closed her eyes weakly, something strange happened. All spears were staggered from her side, and even the two spears that pierced her abdomen left her independently. Then, a silver figure appeared beside her, and took out a small bottle, poured an unknown potion like clear water on her wound.
"Knight? You are finally back. Although it is a bit too much, I still beg you to take care of my brother. Can you?" Cheyen, who was a little confused and did not know that he had survived, made a last request to Craig, and stretched out his weak hand and gently stroked his face.
Although he didn't feel any heartache and had no feelings for this poor girl, Craig, who was also a soldier, felt unbearable anger when he heard her last words. After subconsciously saying "No, my brother must take care of himself", he released all the transformed ghouls in the space ring and ordered them to surround the enemy. (To be continued...)
