Yaeji shook off the blood stains on the knife, his chest heaved violently, panting heavily like a bellows.
He relies on blade return, which can be called abnormal in terms of explosive power, but the physical strength consumed by controlling Sakura Fubuki for a long time makes his battery life in battle mediocre.
After finding a clean place, Yaeji sat down on the ground. Yae Sakura, who had been observing not far away, saw that the battle was over, and immediately ran over with Rin on her back.
"elder brother?"
Yaeji took a few more breaths, "I'm fine, you put Rin down and sit here. Go see how those people are doing."
"Um."
After handing over her sister to her brother, Yae Sakura quickly came to the direction of the cavalry.
Yaeji looked at Rin, saw Rin's face turned pale, and couldn't help saying, "Close your eyes if you're afraid, don't force yourself."
"Then... is that a demon? Mother is..."
Yazhongji was silent for a while, and said "hmm".
"Brother! Two of these five people died, and the remaining three fell into a coma. It seems that they all suffered some injuries, and the legs of two horses were broken."
Yae Ji took out the water bag from his backpack, took a sip and handed it to Rin.
Rin shook his head, and Yae Ji took it back.
Standing up, legs trembled. The skull stabbed wolf monster just now was the most difficult monster he had ever encountered. If his legs and feet were not numb at that time, he would not have let the wolf monster jump in front of those people.
Walking to Sakura's side, he patted her shoulder with his hand, "Go and take care of Rin, I'll take care of the rest."
Sakura nodded and asked, "Do you want me to give them medicine?"
Yazhongji glanced at it casually, "No, it's just a small scratch. If it's broken, no matter how much you apply medicine, it won't help."
Yazhongji first came to the comatose young man, and he was relieved when he found that the other party had only a broken arm and a few bloodstains on his face and body.
The sound of the boy's roar is still vivid in his memory. Although it was this boy who attracted the wolf monster, at least he still has a conscience.
After dragging him under a big tree, Yaeji went to other tasks.
After the panicked horses, they stood in this area and did not run away. It seemed that they were well tamed.
The more daring ones even walked into the corpse of the wolf demon and sniffed it.
Yazhongji immediately drove it away, who knows if this horse will be attracted by monsters.
After disposing of the three unconscious people and the two dead bodies, Yaeji pulled out Sakura Fukixue, and started attacking around the body of the bone spur wolf demon.
"Ka~"
Smash the crystals on the monster with the back of the knife, and put it in the backpack.
"Four shattered crystals? The two bloody wolf monsters are on top."
Yazhong Ji clicked his tongue twice, and stopped asking about the bone spur wolf demon's body. There are almost no wild beasts in this kind of dry forest. Besides, with his small body, it is unrealistic to drag the wolf demon to other places.
After dealing with the wolf demon, Yaeji thought of another thing.
The two confronted for the first time just now. Although it was only a few seconds, the wolf demon still chose to attack the cavalry, which meant that there must be something good on the cavalry.
Something that can make monsters obsessed? Yaeji thought of the strange crystal that Daisuke threw to him...
"They have it too?"
Yaeji was puzzled, but he knew how powerful that thing was, and he made Daisuke look like a dying person.
But these cavalry seem to have nothing wrong with them.
Yaeji touched the two corpses first, but there was nothing there except some coins from the Shinano Kingdom and one or two iron daggers.
He glanced at the comatose teenager and the short swordsman.
Yaeji rubbed his hands together and walked forward.
The two little girls, Yae Sakura and Yae Rin, stared at her brother's movements suspiciously.
touch around.
Rin asked in a low voice: "Sister, brother, he won't..."
Yae Sakura's eyes wandered, and it took a few seconds to find a suitable reason for her brother: "My brother saved them, so it's not too much to charge some protection money?"
"Is that so?" Rin was still skeptical.
On the other side, Yazhongji didn't care what the two little guys were thinking, he was just curious, and wanted to see if the thing was what he guessed.
If it is really a strange crystal, it is better to destroy this kind of thing that can produce monsters in batches. If someone with bad intentions takes it... It will be a disaster.
That's right, Yae Ji thought so, and found a justified reason for his curiosity.
After touching for a long time, I touched all the places I could touch. Except for tokens and belongings, there were no other special things.
"That's not right." Yachongji glanced at Longcheng's token, isn't this the big city closest to Yachong Village? He vaguely heard the short swordsman call the young man "Master". It seems that this good man's status in Longcheng is quite high.
Yazhongji hurriedly stuffed back the token, belongings, etc., stood up and looked elsewhere.
Due to the violent impact of the wolf demon, some things might be knocked into the air.
Yaeji searched around the battlefield again, and finally found a black box.
Pulling out the black box from the ground, wiping off the soil in one corner, Yaeji inspected it carefully.
The box is not like the sword box for Sakura Fubuki, the sword box is made of wood, this... feels like metal, but Yaeji can't guess what kind of metal it is.
"Would you like to open it and have a look?" This thought swirled in Yaeji's mind.
Putting the black box on the ground, Yazhongji took two steps back, glanced guiltyly at the three people who were still in a coma, and then pulled out Sakura Fukixue.
Swing the knife!
The unknown lock snapped.
Yaeji didn't move forward, but used Sakura Fukixue's knife point to open the black box.
"Om~"
The small sound is almost inaudible.
A crystal composed of dozens or even hundreds of pink cubes rose slowly, and the energy source at the center was exuding energy that Yaeji feared.
A faint purple glow covered the entire crystal, and in terms of shape, it was almost the same as the one in the assistant.
But the purple color of the crystal in the box was a little lighter, and Ying Chuixue was not as excited as before, she just groaned twice, a little interested.
"This kind of crystal again? Why don't they control the monster? Is there any secret in it?" Some information flashed through Yazhong Ji's mind, and the small hand that was holding the knife handle was trembling slightly.
"Try again?" Yaeji pressed down on the tip of Yingbai knife, and the moment Ying Fuixue was about to touch the crystal, Yaeji hesitated again.
After absorbing that crystal last time, Sakura Fubuki became weaker. If she absorbs it again...
Yaejiji struggled with heaven and man in his heart, before he could confirm, Ying Fuxue seemed to be impatient, and the blade of the sword suddenly pressed down!
The tip of the cherry white knife hits the strange crystal!
Yaeji took a deep breath, and was about to cover his eyes to prevent being directly hit by the bright light.
nothing happened...
"Tsk." In order to prevent accidents, Ya Chongji put the knife back into its sheath, and the spirit knife hummed a few times in the scabbard, seeming very dissatisfied with Ya Chong Ji's decision.
"It's weird."
Yaeji wandered around the strange crystal, thinking of the shattered crystal in the backpack, his heart suddenly moved.
...
