The situation on the battlefield had stabilized. With the combined efforts of Misaka Mikoto, Zutianlei, and Shiroi Kuroko, most of the players had managed to escape from the monsters. Not only that, but they also had one more survivor among them.
Slash!!
The huge blade flashed past and directly slashed into the monster's wide-open mouth. The man in the trench coat swung his right hand and in the next moment, the monster in front of him was directly split in half. The monster fell to the ground and struggled for a while before it stopped breathing.
"Phew … Looks like there are no more enemies."
Fangzheng spun the pitch-black greatsword in his hand, looked around, and whistled.
"Alright, thank you for your hard work."
"Phew …"
The survivors breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Fangzheng's words. They returned to Fangzheng's side. At this moment, the blue sword in Lei's hand glowed once more, and she turned back into Lei. The blue-haired girl swayed a few times, and then leaned on Lei's shoulder.
"I'm sorry. Are you tired?"
Tears asked softly as he supported Rei. Rei shook her head.
"Not really. I'll be fine after some rest."
"But those people are so pitiful …"
Shiroi Kuroko and Misaka Mikoto walked over. Misaka Mikoto turned around and looked at the people not far away. Her expression was a little sad. At this moment, the refugees who were attacked began to recover from their shock and began to treat their wounds or move the corpses. From time to time, the sound of people crying could be heard. It was obvious that although the girls had tried their best, there were still people who were killed by those monsters.
"In this world, being able to survive is enough."
Fangzheng shrugged. He had seen more apocalypses than anyone else and was used to it.
"But why don't these people go to the mobile city?"
Shiroi Kuroko frowned and asked as he looked at the refugees in the distance. At that moment, a tired voice was heard.
"We can't go in."
Hearing this voice, everyone looked up and saw a bespectacled man in a white shirt walking over.
"Thank you very much. If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid we would all have died here."
"Ah, please don't be so polite …"
Misaka Mikoto quickly waved her hand when she saw the man bowing his head at them. Meanwhile, Shirai Kuroko looked at him curiously.
"Why can't I get in?"
"Fenrir is currently looking for people who have passed the sensitivity test...."
At this moment, another person walked over and looked at the bespectacled man. He was the other uninvited guest who had joined the battle earlier.
"As long as you pass, you can become a God Eater and live in Fenrir."
"You are?"
"My name is Rain Palace Dragon Bile."
The man nodded at Fangzheng and the others.
"I've seen your skills just now. You … aren't God Eaters, are you?"
"We are just travelers."
This time, Fangzheng answered on behalf of the girls. The man who called himself Dragon Bile of the Rain Palace also nodded silently. At this moment, the girls also realized that Dragon Bile of the Rain Palace was different from the others. On his right wrist, there was a huge and exaggerated bracelet. And unlike the other refugees who were dressed in tattered clothes, his clothes looked extremely clean and shockingly clean. On his chest, there was a tiny pattern sewn onto it.
After greeting Fangzheng and the others, Rain Palace Dragon Bile looked at the bespectacled man again.
"Even if you don't pass, as long as your relatives pass, you can still go together."
However, hearing Rain Palace Dragon Bile's words, the bespectacled man lowered his head.
"Thank you very much for helping us, but I can't agree with Fenrir's method."
The bespectacled man's expression turned a little gloomy.
"Humans are actually selecting humans. This is intolerable."
"…?"
Hearing this, the girls looked at each other in confusion. Fangzheng chuckled and shrugged without saying a word. Rain Palace Dragon Bile was silent for a moment, then took out a box that looked like a piece of paper and threw it to the bespectacled man.
"I'll leave this to you. You can test it when you change your mind."
After saying that, Rain Palace Dragon Bile looked at Fangzheng.
"Where do you plan to go next?"
"Around. You should also come from a mobile city, right? If you don't mind, we'd like to take a look. Will we disturb you?"
"No."
If it was someone else, Rain Palace Dragon Bile might have hesitated, but during the battle just now, he had seen all the abilities of the girls. They were fighting in a completely different way from Fenrir and God Eaters. Although he didn't know where these people came from, he knew very well that they were not much weaker than him, a God Eater.
They might even be stronger.
"You're very welcome."
"Thank you for your guidance."
Fangzheng extended his hand again.
"My name is Fangzheng, and I'm currently the leader here. These are my students, please take care of them."
"I'm Rain Palace Dragon Bile, the captain of the first division of Fenrir's Easternmost Branch. Please take care of me."
Both parties exchanged greetings and were about to leave. But at this moment, a young voice suddenly sounded.
"Excuse me …!"
Hearing this voice, everyone turned around and saw a boy about seven or eight years old running all the way to them. He stared at everyone and asked.
"Can I also be strong enough to defeat the Aragami?"
Aragami?
Hearing the young man's question, Phyllis and the others were a little stunned. Rain Palace Dragon Bile squatted down and smiled at the boy.
"Young man, what do you think the so-called strength exists for?"
Hearing Rain Palace Dragon Bile's question, the young man immediately answered.
"Of course it's to protect everyone!"
"Lotus Lady!"
However, at this moment, another girl who looked slightly older than the young man also ran over in a hurry. But before she could speak, she suddenly tripped on a stone under her feet and fell forward. Fangzheng, who was standing next to her, stretched out his hand and held the girl's waist.
"Are you okay?"
"I'm … I'm fine!"
The girl raised her head and looked at Fangzheng next to her. She suddenly blushed and said in a low voice. Then, she hurriedly stood up straight. Fangzheng smiled and let go of the girl. He then reached out and took out a small communicator from his pocket.
"In that case, I'll give you something good too."
While saying that, Fangzheng handed the communicator in his hand to the girl.
"Umm … What is this?"
"A small signal transmitter. Click on it, and you'll see a map … Press this."
Following Fangzheng's instructions, the girl pressed the button on the communicator in her hand doubtfully. Soon, a 3D holographic map appeared in front of everyone. Seeing this, she, the bespectacled man, and the young man widened their eyes in surprise.
"This is …?!"
If you don't have enough supplies, you can try your luck there. But I have to warn you in advance that this road is not easy for you. There are monsters lurking under the ruins of the city. Although they're different from the monsters on your side, they're still quite annoying. If you encounter any danger, you can press this button and ask for help. But you only have one chance. "
Saying that, Fangzheng smiled at everyone.
"So you have to use it carefully."
"Thank you very much!"
At that moment, the bespectacled man bowed at Fangzheng in excitement. He knew very well what it meant. After all, an abandoned mobile city definitely had a lot of supplies. To them, these were the most important. In terms of safety, although the city was not as good as a normal mobile city, it was at least safer than the place they were currently living in.
The only threat was the monsters lurking in the city ….
But how they chose to do that was up to them.
After that, Fangzheng and the others got into Dragon Bile Rain's car and sped towards the mobile city, Fenrir.
"Have you been wandering around?"
While driving, Gentian Rain curiously sized up the people around him. From Dragon Bile of the Rain Palace's point of view, Fangzheng and the others did not look like travelers who had traveled a long distance. This could be seen from their clothes. Shirai Kuroko and Misaka Mikoto were wearing Tsunantai's uniforms. Although Zuo Tianlei's uniform was not branded, it was still clean and bright. Phyllis was also wearing Jelnie's school uniform.
Rei was the only one who was still wearing her original clothes. There was not much change.
But no matter how he looked at it, they were a far cry from the travel-worn, worn-out, and skinny travelers in Dragon Bile Rain's impression.
"It's considered an extracurricular lesson. I'm just bringing them out to see the world."
Fangzheng did not say anything. In fact, this was indeed an extracurricular lesson for the little girls. In this apocalyptic world, it was the most profound way to understand human nature. Even Misaka Mikoto would be able to mature quickly.
"I see."
Dragon Bile Rain nodded. He obviously thought that Fangzheng was bringing the little girls out for actual combat training. After all, the God Eater team in Fenrir did the same thing. As the team leader, he had reminded the newbies more than once. From the battle earlier, Dragon Bile Rain could tell that the girls were quite strong. However, they were still lacking in experience. It was not unusual for them to be brought out for training.
"But the Corrupted Beasts here look really strange. They're completely different from the ones we've seen before."
At this time, Phyllis asked doubtfully. The Rain Dragon Bile was stunned.
"Corrupted Beasts?"
"That's a monster that lives in her mobile city. To put it simply, it's a tough opponent. It looks like an insect and has a strong regenerative ability."
Fangzheng briefly explained. If the Corrupted Beasts in Jelnie's territory looked like insects, then the monsters here were obviously more like animals.
"Regenerative ability. The Aragami also have a strong defense. They're very difficult to deal with."
"Is that what you guys call the monsters here?"
"That's right."
Dragon Bile of the Rain Palace's expression became much more solemn.
"Fenrir has always been fighting against the Aragami, but frankly speaking … we don't know when we'll be able to put an end to this."
"There will be a day."
Fangzheng replied quietly and looked out the window.
After that, the journey was silent.
After an unknown period of time, a pure white city appeared in front of everyone.
