Chapter 1711 Hunting (A Cat Curled up and Sleeping)

"Huh......"

Duanmu Huai sat in the corner of the noisy tavern and sighed.

It had been several days since he returned to the world where Norn and the others were through the passage of the subspace. Of course, compared with the mess caused by the Mechanicus, this world has been thousands of years now. The original three countries - the Kingdom of the Brave, the Kingdom of Magical Tools and the Kingdom of Protection have long disappeared in the long river of history.

Even the country that Princesses Freya and Norn recreated by unifying the three countries after that fell apart and completely perished many years ago.

This is normal. The general trend of the world is that after a long period of division, there will be unity, and after a long period of unity, there will be division. Princess Norn is indeed very smart, but this does not mean that her successor is equally smart.

But even so, this world is not very normal.

According to the intelligence collected by Duanmu Huai in the past few days, this world has a threat called dragon again.

At first, Duanmu Huai thought that it was the same as the demons in this world, and it was a kind of creation created by the Mechanicus. But after meeting it, he found that it was more like the evil ghost he had met before than a creature.

That's right, when Duanmu Huai first heard about dragons, he thought of the big lizard with wings that could breathe fire. Of course, most dragons do look like that, but their biological signs are somewhat lacking compared to dragons—for example, they are afraid of silver and sunlight. You can kill it with a silver sword, or drag it under the sun to let it burn.

When he first saw it, Duanmu Huai was confused. Could it be that all the dragons here are immortal?

He also asked people in this world, but he only knew that the war between humans and dragons has been going on for a long time, and he didn't know when it started.

But Duanmu Huai can be sure that at least when he first came to this world, he hadn't heard of such a weird thing, and there were no similar monsters in the demon army. Therefore, at least it can be determined that these so-called dragons are definitely not the remnants of the demons at the time.

After all, for this world, that was thousands of years ago, comparable to the ancient legend of Dayu controlling floods and Nuwa mending the sky, but for Duanmu Huai, it was only a dozen years ago.

By the way, Duanmu Huai also found the village where he had rested at that time. He didn't expect that although the country was destroyed, the village was still there, and even the hotel was still there.

It was just changed into a tavern.

It was where Duanmu Huai was now.

Things have changed.

Duanmu Huai sat in the corner, looking at the maids walking around in front of him, and couldn't help but think of the girl who came to this village when he was regarded as a brave man and was sent by the other party to serve him. That time was still very beautiful, but unfortunately, this hotel has been repaired several times since then. Although it is still in use now, it has basically become something else.

In addition, there are many things that make Duanmu Huai very puzzled.

For example, the current development of civilization in this world, Duanmu Huai is a little confused.

According to Duanmu Huai's observation, the level of civilization in this world is somewhat similar to that during World War I and World War II. For example, the cities here still use the defensive features of medieval walls, but there are railways and vehicles, and even ordinary soldiers have weapons such as rifles. Although there is no TV, there are still radios.

How to say it, it feels like entering the industrial revolution.

Of course, if it is like this, there is nothing to be surprised about, but some things surprised Duanmu Huai.

Because of the threat of dragons, there are currently several countries in this world. Of course, there are many abandoned gathering areas in addition. These are called ancient ruins.

When most people think of ancient ruins, they must first think of the kind that appears in movies, with grand stone buildings, exotic styles, and very ancient-looking buildings.

So, when Duanmu Huai saw the reinforced concrete modern building complex buried by weeds in the doomsday wasteland environment in front of him, he didn't know how to react.

You live in medieval houses and call modern urban agglomerations ancient ruins?

What kind of civilization development is this?

Duanmu Huai couldn't figure out how it became like this.

However, the current level of civilization in this world is not enough to fight against dragons. Low-level dragons are just big lizards, but high-level dragons can use psychic energy, and their abilities are not small. Ordinary guns and cannons have no effect on them. Duanmu Huai tried to fight several times, and felt that even in modern society, it is not easy to deal with these dragons.

This is also the reason why Duanmu Huai thinks these dragons are like evil spirits, because they have strong recovery ability and cannot be defeated unless they are used with specific weapons. Even with specific weapons, not everyone can easily defeat these dragons. Of course, it just happens that for Duanmu Huai, he likes these guys who are not easy to kill the most.

Although Duanmu Huai is still unclear about the ins and outs, he has also guessed the current situation from the flow of psychic energy in the subspace before.

Because the scum in the subspace failed to invade the world over there, and this side seemed to have penetrated the barrier between reality and subspace for some reason, so they turned around and invaded this world.

And this so-called group of dragons is the product of the invasion.

After all, no matter what they are called, they all exude the disgusting stench unique to subspace creatures, and this cannot be changed.

Duanmuhuai finished drinking the milk from the cup, stood up and went to the commission board. There were dragons in this world, so naturally there were professionals who hunted dragons. They are called dragon hunters, and all dragon hunters have a silver sword. Of course, in Duanmuhuai's view, the silver sword they hold is not just a sword made of silver. That kind of attack can cut off the dragon The spiritual energy flows in the body, thus killing it.

Of course, Duanmu Huai didn't need that kind of weapon, he was enough to rely on his own blood-colored blade.

Come hunting today.

Thinking of this, Duanmu Huai withdrew his gaze, found a commission, and turned around and left the tavern.

He doesn't know where he should go now, so he can revisit the old place first.

"roar-----!!!"

The dark monsters opened their bloody mouths and roared forward in the heavy rain. They were in groups, devouring everything like a dark tide of destruction. When ordinary people see this scene, they will be frightened to their legs and collapse to the ground.

The dragon will appear late at night, attacking human cities and villages and destroying all enemies standing in front of them. Because they can fly, even the city walls have no way to deal with them.

Because night is their world, here there is nothing to stop them except the sun.

Therefore, it is inevitable that these monsters will feel panic when that golden glow suddenly appears.

The shining light burst out from the dark night, illuminating the world in front of you. The dragons bathed in the light suddenly let out painful wails and screams. They screamed, and their bodies began to burn, and then After a moment it turned into piles of burning ashes.

Is this magic?

Kurokawa Akain took his eyes back from the burning ashes and looked at his palm. At the same time, a girl's voice came from beside her.

"Well, it's true. It's true that she is a woman who is spoiled by that adult. She is very smart and sensible, and the effect of using magic is much better than that of you, sister."

Noren appeared from the void with a smile and landed beside Kurokawa Akain, while joking at the other side with a smile. Next to her, Freya's face was stiff, but she just snorted helplessly and didn't say anything.

"Is Xiao Ai really here?"

"Of course, we didn't lie to you."

“……………………………”

Hearing Noren's answer, Kurokawa Akain's expression was a bit complicated. To be honest, until now, Kurokawa Akaini felt like she was dreaming, even though she had come to another world, she had witnessed the monsters with her own eyes and even killed them with her own hands. There is still a sense of unreality for Kurokawa Akain. She even felt that she was probably on a set and couldn't help but look around, wanting to find out if there were crews and cameras around her.

No mistakes, one song, one content, one in 6, one book, one bar, one reading!

Of course, none of these are.

To be honest, Kurokawa Akino is mostly alert to the pair of sisters who suddenly appeared in front of him. The sister who was tense at that moment was easy to see through, but the sister who always smiled gave Kurokawa Chiyin is a bottomless sense of danger.

Especially the transaction proposed by the other party was completely beyond Kurokawa Akain's imagination.

The reason why Kurokawa Akino agreed to the other party was that Kurokawa Akino saw the familiar and unfamiliar figure in their memory.

The tall figure in black armor appeared in Kurokawa Akain's dream several times. What is the relationship between that person and Xiao Ai?

Kurokawa Akain believes that the two may have some relationship, but she thinks they are still two people, for example, Xiao Ai is the descendant of the black shadow, or the black shadow is Xiao Ai's guardian spirit or something.

but………

"Huh? That lord is that lord. No matter what he becomes, the taste of the soul will not change."

Facing Princess Noren's smiled answer, Kurokawa Akain always felt a little incredible.

But... she also felt that the other party was not lying. After all, Kurokawa Akino always felt that Xiao Ai's behavior and personality did not look like a girl at all. If it were a man, it seemed normal.

Of course, Kurokawa Akane won't use magic. The current magic was obtained after she obtained the memory of her sister Freya, among the sisters. After that, according to Princess Noren, learning magic requires repeated practice.

It just so happens that the world is facing trouble now, so you might as well go there to practice. And that adult is also in that world. You want to help him. Isn’t this a good opportunity?

Of course, they help themselves not simply out of favorable feelings—if they could sacrifice themselves for their loved ones like TV or comics, and silently protect them, it would be fine, but the deal proposed by Princess Noren is ………

“We can help you gain the power to be loyal to that adult, but we also need you to do one thing for us.”

"What's up?"

"We want you to have that adult's child."

"child?"

"That's right, my sister and I have been waiting for that adult. Even if he leaves us and will not come back, we don't plan to just keep our thoughts in our hearts. So, we hope you can give us a new life. Come down so that we can meet again with that adult."

To be honest, it sounded like the ravings of a madman. Heichuan Akane even thought that there was something wrong with his ears, or that the sisters were actually abnormal.

However, at this time, Heichuan Akane recalled what Duanmu Huai said.

There was no point in telling them, because they could not fight at all.

Yes, it was this point that prompted Heichuan Akane to make a decision and make up his mind.

From this perspective, she felt that she could understand the sisters, not just watching from behind, but fighting together until the end. This was also what Heichuan Akane thought, so she accepted the deal and the condition.

"Then, just keep moving forward and kill all the bastards in front of us with this momentum!"

"Can we really find Xiao Ai in this way?"

"Of course."

In response to Heichuan Akane's question, Princess Norn chuckled.

"Do you think that adult will hide his whereabouts obediently?"

"…………………… Indeed."

After talking to Princess Norn in a low voice, Heichuan Akane raised his head and looked forward.

This time, she must stand by Xiao Ai's side.
