Chapter 97: Next(1/2)

"Oh, thank you to the all-knowing and almighty God, thank you for sending your messengers to save your devout believers..."

A woman wearing dirty religious robes was leading a group of believers to worship crazily at a triangular object in the room. Behind them were Erica holding a machine gun and Afu holding a shotgun.

Laura.

"Eve... I kind of regret coming to save them..." Erica looked at the group of crazy worshipers and said, "Wasting so many bullets to save a group of lunatics... It's not worth it."

"It doesn't matter, anyway, we have rescued the people who should be rescued..." Aurora turned her head and looked at the departing figures in the distance, then turned back to Erica and teased with a smile: "

People from the Celestial Sect are quite sensible, but I guess if you meet believers of other religions..."

"I'll throw them a grenade!" Erica spat disdainfully and walked out of the half-collapsed house with a machine gun on her shoulder.

Aurora didn't want to stay here any longer, because it was almost lunch time, and instead of dealing with a group of fanatical religious believers here, she might as well go back and get something delicious.

The two walked out of the yard full of bullet holes and monster corpses and came to the street. Just as they were about to return directly to the safe area, they suddenly heard Diana's communication.

"Erica where are you?"

"It's one street away from the safe zone..." Erica opened the magic map she carried and looked at Diana's location and then added: "You can see us if you keep walking forward."

Diana responded softly, and then the sound of her trotting footsteps came from the earphones. Erica felt that her footsteps were a bit heavy, and she was originally planning to ask casually, but before she could speak, the other person happened to

He ran out of a nearby street intersection.

Diana and Aurora rushed forward. At the same time, Erica quickly took off the PKP's magazine backpack and took out a pile of cloaks and draped them on Threnir, who was naked in Diana's arms.

"What's going on? Where are the clothes?" Erica wrapped Thrannier in his cloak and held him in her arms.

"She transformed just now... her clothes were probably torn, right?" Diana looked back at the other little guy in her arms with uncertainty.

Ruby nodded naturally, looked at Erica with sincere eyes and said, "Erica, she's hungry..."

The little guy's meaning was really simple and clear. It was lunch time anyway, so Erica nodded. Then she looked at a dark crystal object in Ruby's hand and asked, "What is this?"

Trophies?”

Erica speculated that this thing must be something they got in the battle just now. Although Erica still didn't know what they were fighting with just now. But what was surprising was that Ruby was obviously not like Erica.

As expected, Ruby waved the trophy in her hand to show off, but Ruby pouted with a depressed expression, then lowered her head and hummed softly: "This is her companion..."

"Who?" Erica, Diana and Aurora present looked at Ruby in confusion.

Ruby held the crystal object in both hands and brought it to Erica. Although it felt strange at first, Erica always felt that the shape of this object was familiar, but surprisingly she couldn't remember where she had seen it.

.

"Could it be that..." Aphra pulled her head closer and observed, "Dragon bone...?"

"Well..." Ruby looked like she was about to cry, and she lay in Diana's arms and said sadly: "The skull of the crystal dragon..."

When Ruby said this, Erica immediately remembered. The reason why she thought it looked familiar was because she had indeed seen something with the same shape. In the Envar ruins, the dragon bones used by the conjurer were made.

A certain ritual artifact came out that was exactly the same as this crystal object, except that the artifact used by the conjurer was made from the skull of Ruby's former master, the blue dragon Sahar, and this one was the skull of a crystal dragon...



Ruby seemed unwilling to say too much, because it didn't seem like a suitable time to ask questions at this moment. So Diana hugged Ruby and patted her back to comfort her, while Erica and Aurora also

He had no choice but to turn his attention to Thrannier.

Erica didn't know what the crystal dragon looked like, so it didn't seem wrong for Ruby to say that this carved crystal object was the bone of the crystal dragon. But compared to Ruby's sad look, Ellie

Selenir in Ka's arms still looked confused in her clothes, and when she faced the gazes of Erica and Aurora, she even flinched and squeezed into Erica's arms in an attempt to hide herself.

But her little move soon changed. After squirming in Erica's arms for a long time, Serenir unexpectedly stuck out her head, and then faced her with her innocent face.

Erica opened her mouth.

Erica knew that she was expressing her hunger at this time, and then Erica and Avrola looked at each other with a smile and sighed, and then Erica casually took out a small piece of tinfoil from her pocket.

The wrapped chocolate was carefully peeled off the tin foil and then stuffed into Thrannier's mouth like a baby bird begging for food.

Judging from Ruby's condition, what she said should be the truth, but the problem is that Erica doesn't understand why Ruby, who is of a different race from the dragon, is so sad? Selenir is easy to understand, after all, although she

She seems to be slightly older than Ruby, but in fact she was born not long ago. Although the intelligence of dragon children is different from that of humans, if compared, Selenir is actually about the same as a one-year-old child now.

.For such a young child, even if her parents died, the child would probably not understand what happened. Therefore, facing the behavior of being defiled after the death of her own race, rather than feeling sad and angry, Selenir

Pay more attention to the instinctive reaction in your stomach.

"Let's go back first..." Erica winked at Diana who was comforting Ruby and then said: "Go back and rest quickly. After lunch, quickly deliver the letter to Count Ronan, and then we will leave Ronan.

South Fort.”

"Don't care about things here?" Diana looked at Erica unexpectedly and asked: "These monsters..."

"It has nothing to do with us in the first place. We have already helped the locals a lot, and just now Liz escorted the messenger who came out of the castle out of the city. It is estimated that reinforcements will be found before evening to clear up the follow-up problems.

." As she spoke, Erica took out a small hand-drawn map from her pocket and handed it to Aurora and asked her to show it to Diana: "There are not many fusion monsters left that control mutant zombies.

It's enough to help Count Ronan clear out the zombies around the castle, and let them handle the rest of the problems themselves. After all, our goal is in the north, and we can't delay here for too long."

"Well... I understand." Diana looked at the small map drawn by Erica and the various marks on it and nodded and said: "I agree, anyway, the most dangerous monsters here have been eliminated by the children.

The rest is really not a big problem.”

Just when Erica was about to lead everyone back to the safe area, a group of believers in the house just came out surrounded by the priestess of the Celestial Sect. The priestess was still holding the very-looking thing in her hand.

It is a simple triangular artifact, and the surrounding believers are also very pious and solemn escorts, guarding everything around the priestess, including of course Erica who just saved them.

"Who are they?" Diana looked at the group of unkind-looking guys and frowned.

"They're just a bunch of hopeless idiots, don't worry about it." Erica glanced at the people opposite her with disdain and then walked away struttingly, while Aurora who followed her looked at Dai with great interest.

Anna told the story.

The reason is just as Erica said, the building where this group of people was located was originally a "church" established by the Tenjin religious group. The disaster occurred when the believers in the city were holding prayers. The disaster

After the outbreak, they wisely quickly closed the doors and windows to protect themselves, at least that's what Erica and the survivors who rescued from nearby said.

There was indeed no problem at first, but until the excessive tension and panic completely got out of control, the only priest in the church, an old male priest, began to encourage everyone to perform something similar to a "Mass"

The ritual gathering tried to dispel fear. Maybe his intention was indeed good, but the problem was that for some reason this ritual began to become distorted, or it might be due to factors such as the clean-up activities of Erica and others.

The result was that the large group of mutated zombies that had been surrounding the church left here, and this phenomenon was vigorously promoted and exaggerated by the priests and believers who gradually fell into religious fanaticism, and finally thought of themselves as such.

It was the "god" they believed in that gave them salvation...

This idea seems very absurd in the eyes of normal people, but to the believers who fall into madness, it is a phenomenon such as "miracles" and "miracles". In short, the final result is more and more crazy prayers.

It was extremely noisy and frenzied, and then this noise, like a festival celebration, attracted a mutant fusion monster wandering nearby.

What happened after that became even more ridiculous. Erica and Aurora rushed over at the critical moment and destroyed the monsters that were massacring the survivors. However, the result was that this rescue brought back this group of surviving survivors.

They fell into mysterious madness again.

During the previous monster attack, most of the believers and the priest in the church were brutally killed and became the flesh of the monsters. Therefore, the surviving believers elected a female church worker in the chaos.

He became the new "Priest Master", and then allowed this crazy Priest Master to lead everyone back into crazy religious beliefs to escape reality.

Erica showed great contempt for this group of hopeless stock, so she rescued a few normal people who were relatively sane and arranged for them to take refuge in a safe zone. As for the remaining crazy people, Erica only planned to

Let it stay here to fend for itself.

After listening to the reasons told by Aurora, Diana looked at the half-ruined church not far away and the corpses of monsters on the ground in the courtyard. It was obvious that the battle between Erica and Aurora just now was not easy.

At the same time, like Erica, she also sneered at such crazy believers. At the same time, Diana also agreed with Aurora's point of view. No matter how much she hated this group of people, it didn't make sense. Erica was just doing it anyway.

He just saved them, but this does not mean that he and others need to be responsible for them. After all, in the eyes of the other party, he and others are just a group of foreigners, and can even be said to be foreigners. This is something Diana can see from those opposite.

The elves showed hostility in the eyes of the madmen.

Furthermore, Diana has never had any favorable impression of crazy religions, or it can be said that even rational religions do not agree with her. This has not changed in her past life or this life. Speaking of the religious group Tianshen Sect,

It is still relatively respected in the Varanato region. Although the teachings are made up, at least the religious groups are very superficial and will not be associated with negative impressions such as power and greed. However,

In the final analysis, no matter how beautiful it is, it is just superficial. Looking at the group of cult-like believers of gods opposite, Diana's last objective impression of this religion no longer exists.

Diana squinted her eyes and glanced at the group of lunatics opposite, then turned around and followed Erica out of here.

In Diana's eyes, rather than being hostile to these madmen, she actually felt that they were pitiful. After all, their madness stemmed from fear, and fear stemmed from their own blindness. In other words, if the same place and the same crisis

, but if a group of farmers or soldiers were trapped in that house, then the result may be another possibility. In fact, you don’t have to think too far, just say that there are actually other buildings on this street.

There are a large number of survivors, and everyone is also very scared, but others choose to be calm in the face of fear... or relatively calm. No matter what problem occurs, they must stay quietly in the room and wait for the danger to pass. Looking back on these

Crazy believers use some very absurd actions to vent their fears, which only leads to greater disasters.

Diana doesn't want to comment on their "humanity", because it is even more meaningless. After all, these madmen will eventually calm down on their own, and then they will be left to taste what they have done.

, and rather than wasting time here, Diana thought it would be better to go back early and prepare a delicious lunch for Ruby.

"Ruby..." Diana hugged Ruby and asked softly, "What do you want to eat for lunch?"

"...Chocolate." Ruby lay on Diana's shoulder and muttered sullenly: "Erica is partial...only gives Thrannier chocolate but not me..."

Diana almost laughed out loud after hearing this. Fortunately, she restrained herself very well and did not let Ruby find out what she was thinking.

"Okay... Eve has brought some interesting food. Do you want to try it for lunch?" Diana said gently against Ruby's ear: "There is chocolate cake."

"Yeah! I want it!" Ruby suddenly raised her head and said.

"Okay, okay. As long as you don't cry, I'll let you eat one more piece in a minute." Diana said casually.
To be continued...
