"Monster?" I suddenly remembered the flesh puppet I saw before, and then quickly confirmed: "Is it the same kind as before?"

"It's not the same... Please repeat the description of the monster. Miles, how many cavalry can you mobilize now?"

Chris called the two cavalrymen behind and then stepped aside to discuss other matters with Miles. I took a look at the blood stains on the two cavalrymen and found that they were not actually injured, but they looked injured.

It was unlike the thief behind who had such an effect caused by his own blood, so I couldn't help but feel nervous and then I couldn't wait to ask what happened.

The two cavalrymen narrated the whole process of their encounter with the monster very freely. At first, they took the portrait of the suspected thief they got from the hotel and distributed it along the road to all the checkpoints in the north. However, when they arrived at a small town 20 kilometers away,

During the checkpoint, I learned from the guard at the door that the three people in the portrait had just passed by in a carriage, so I took all the dozen guards in the checkpoint to arrest them. However, when they caught up with the carriage, they saw

The thief and a girl were fighting three humanoid monsters, and they hurriedly joined the battle and sacrificed the lives of several more guards before desperately killing one of the monsters. The last two remaining monsters saw that the situation was not going well.

He instantly disrupted the situation of the battle, grabbed the girl, and fled the scene.

Obviously, from their descriptions, I learned that the girl was Liz, and the thief was also the seriously injured guy in the back who was still unconscious. He was also the one who kidnapped Liz in the hotel.

This makes me feel a little confused, because although Chris said before that the monsters seem to be different, she did not deny that there is no connection between the two. I also think so, but I don’t understand why the thief would

Fight monsters with Liz.

"Please describe the monster's appearance in more detail."

"Those three monsters look about the same size as humans, but their limbs don't look like humans at all. They look like translucent gel like slime monsters, but they have some yellow-green eyes on them, and the slime

The limbs have no corrosive effect...but they can eat people. We saw with our own eyes that two of the monsters had two skeletons in their arms, and during the battle, the monster's limbs would also suck blood from the ground..."

After one of the cavalrymen finished speaking, he began to fall into memories, as if he was desperately trying to remember if there was anything else he hadn't said, and then another cavalryman added.

"The monsters are very agile. Ordinary weapons can't cause any damage to their limbs. Only their bodies are barely human bodies. We only found the chance to kill one of the monsters by shooting it through the head with a bow and arrow.

."

"Yes, they still have human heads. Although their faces are almost gone, their brains are still there. After being shot in the brain, the monsters become very slow. We just rely on this gap to chop them into pieces with axes.

He killed the monster by taking his head off."

"Any more?"

"...Sorry, ma'am, that's all we remember."

"No need to apologize, you did a good job. Did you bring the monster's body back?"

"This... Regarding the monster's body, we tried to bring it back, but on the way, the body slowly dried and turned into a pile of powder."

"We were afraid the powder was poisonous so we burned it on the way."

"...Forget it, your information is very detailed, thank you."

After listening to the two cavalrymen's stories, I went to a seat in the corner and sat down. I needed a little silence to digest the information.

It was really beyond my expectation. Although I didn’t know the names of the three monsters, I knew very well what happened to their inhuman abnormal parts. This kind of monster is actually more terrifying than the flesh and blood puppet, although

They seem to be more fragile than the former, but if my estimate is correct, this kind of monster is simply a defective product. It is not complete, or it may be immature.

In any case, there is an inevitable connection between these two monsters, and the key lies in the cult organization hiding behind the Thieves Guild.

Just as I was thinking about countermeasures, Miles came over and asked me to go to the meeting room of the mansion to discuss the next thing. I looked up and saw that Chris was no longer in the room. It seemed that she had passed ahead of time.

.I nodded to Miles and followed him out of the room, but what was surprising was that as soon as we walked out of the room, we saw Chris nervously listening to a knight’s report. It seemed like there was something else.

An accident happened.

Chris rushed over immediately after seeing me, and I felt a hint of panic from her nervous expression.

"Diana, something strange came from outside the city..."

I didn’t understand what Chris meant by strangeness at all, but I subconsciously thought of the flesh puppet from before and asked worriedly: “It’s the kind from before…”

"I don't know. A strange thing was found on the newly built sentry tower outside the city, running quickly from the south, but..."

"South?" After hearing the direction, I tried to use detection magic to observe the direction of the south gate of the city. At this time, many soldiers had quickly gathered on the southern border, and the soldiers and knights in the city were also leading their teams towards that direction.

Go. I tried to spread my perception to the maximum range. After a while, the so-called strange thing came into my sight.

"Erica..." I canceled the magic and said to the confused Chris with peace of mind: "Erica is back. Ask the soldiers to let her in... It's best to clean up South Street.

Pedestrians on board, please avoid misunderstanding.”

Although Chris didn't quite understand what it meant, she still did as she was told. After giving instructions to the knight who reported the message, Chris took me towards the mansion. On the way back, we also briefly exchanged information about monsters.

Question, I briefly told Chris about the newly discovered monster problem. Although it is different from the previous flesh puppet, I am afraid it still belongs to the Thieves Guild, or the cult behind the guild. Erica and I will talk later

will set off, so I want to get more information about the location of the Thieves Guild from Chris.

Although Chris said that she would definitely provide us with help, she currently has no more information. The most important thing now is to revive the thief. I am afraid that future arrangements will have to be based on the information provided by the thief.

.However, after careful consideration for a while, she said that it was unlikely that all the soldiers would be sent to exterminate the thieves with me, because the security of the territory still needed manpower.

I expressed my gratitude to Chris for her suggestion, because her suggestion was already very good. At least she took the initiative to provide us with assistance, but her concerns were also correct. The key is that there are currently too many soldiers in Welsk City.

Less. In the same way, I actually don’t want to borrow too many people from her. After all, Erica and I can’t direct these people at all. If there are more people, it will only cause unnecessary confusion, so I suggest that if possible, I hope to

Borrow Russell from her, because what we lack most right now is someone who can help with healing magic.

And just when we walked to the door of the mansion, we suddenly heard a roar not far away, and accompanied by a burst of rock music full of strong rhythm, a black armored off-road vehicle suddenly parked at the mansion.

The front garden entrance.

Erica opened the car door and jumped out of the left driver's seat, but she seemed to have forgotten to turn off the music in the car.

"Don"t try to push your luck......"

“Just get outta my way…”

""Cause I"m back Yes I"m back......"

"Well I"m back Yeah I"m back!!"

Erica wore a new combat uniform, and then walked towards me with her arms spread out to the rhythm of the noisy music.

She did it on purpose! This childish guy definitely did it on purpose! She must have wanted to create a certain atmosphere, so she deliberately opened the car door and played music.

But... I have to say that her current appearance coupled with these lyrics really shocked everyone, at least I did, and I think the shock of Chris and others was actually more because of her

The car behind you.

I remember seeing that exaggerated armored off-road vehicle in the basement two days ago. Erica said that it was a modified vehicle she drove when she was in the mercenary company. It turned out to be a military vehicle produced in Russia. The name seemed like it.

It's called...GAZ-2975. Later, after being modified by the mercenary company, a "Z" was added to the end of the name, which means the abbreviation of the company's name, and the mercenary company is still on both sides of the car door.

The company's logo, a black dragon with wings spread, was spray-painted on it.

The modified vehicle is very powerful in terms of armor protection and fire support. Erica once boasted to me that she had shot down two helicopters with the large-caliber machine gun on this vehicle. I’m not sure whether what she said was true.

Yes, but in my opinion, the firepower of this vehicle is indeed very powerful. At least in this world, I believe she can use the firepower of this vehicle to repel an army. If there is a chance, she can add some magic to the armor of this vehicle.

If you have defensive inscriptions, you will be even more invincible.

But then again, what Erica did in front of me made me feel very angry. I suppressed my inner discomfort and walked towards her, but deliberately raised my right hand and sent out a burst of electric sparks, because I planned to

The moment she pounced on her, I shocked her with electric shock. Erica seemed to be frightened by me. She hurriedly turned around and jumped into the car. She reached out and picked up a CD player from the passenger seat and turned off the music. Finally,

He ran up to me with his head lowered and smiled stupidly.

"Have enough fun?"

"No...ah! Enough! Enough!"

I took back my right hand, canceled the electric shock magic and sighed helplessly.

"Come in, things have developed again, maybe we need to leave as soon as possible."

"Oh... no problem, I've asked Severna to help me get some new gadgets before, and now I'm completely ready."

Erica smiled and took out a strange scroll from the satchel behind her. I clearly felt that there was some unknown magical power on it. Judging from the structure of the magical form alone, it was definitely not something that a mortal could make.

But in terms of power, it seems to be quite insignificant. At least this magic scroll is definitely not a weapon used to attack enemies, and judging from Erica's performance, this thing seems to be very important.

"What's this?"

"Magic version...GPS? That should be correct."

"GPS? What is that?"

"Global Positioning System, Liz's location has been marked on it. We can follow this to hunt down those thieves."

I don’t quite understand the specific meaning of this thing, but I also understood its function from her words, but...

"...Come in first."

I took Erica's arm and walked towards the main entrance of the mansion. When I approached Chris, she reacted quickly, then walked ahead and took us to the conference room on the first floor.

When we entered the conference room, we found that many important figures were already sitting here, including Count Papuas and even Knight Marco. His wounds had been healed, but he had just woken up.

He was very angry. I was nearby and clearly heard his vicious words against Erica. Although I wanted to teach him a lesson, Chris talked to him first, and then this guy became inexplicable.

I was honest. Later, I also heard Miles mention this to me, saying that it was Chris who revealed to him my and Erica’s identities, the identities of the God’s Chosen Ones.

Perhaps in the past or elsewhere, this identity was not worth mentioning to the nobles, but now the situation has changed. The identity of the God's Chosen One has been confirmed by Chris to be authentic. Moreover, the arrival of a god has just happened, so

When Marco saw us now, he was as frightened as a mouse seeing a cat. I was too lazy to pay attention to him, but Erica glared at him and the group of knights behind him with disdain, and then we sat down quietly.
