* Rumble!!! *
Lightning flashed, thunder roared, and a torrential rain poured down.
Even in the dark forest, one could still feel the divine power of nature.
"Mr. Fangzheng, I don't understand …."
Laura looked around in confusion, while Fangzheng chuckled.
"It's simple. This isn't the Semriya Continent, but another world. Do you understand what I mean?"
"Huh? How is that possible? "
Hearing this, Emma's eyes suddenly widened. She wanted to say something, but before she could, Laura immediately opened her mouth.
"The Holy Book of the Seven Luminaries Church says that the Goddess created one world, and that is the Semriya Continent …."
"…. There's such a saying?"
Fangzheng was taken aback by Laura's answer. He had never heard of it before …. So this was another nonsense from the Seven Luminaries Church?
I'll have to discuss it with Fina when I get back. "
"Well, that's just a mistake in the Holy Book. In fact, there are many other worlds apart from the one you're in. The one we're in now is one of them."
"I'm sure."
At that moment, Altina, who had been silent all this while, finally spoke.
"I can't feel any flow of conductive force in the air, so I'm sure this isn't the Semriya Continent."
"That's … .that's true!"
Laura carefully sensed it, and her expression turned solemn. In the Semriya Continent, whether one was good at combat or magic, one needed to rely on conductive force to strengthen oneself. When Laura tried it just now, she was surprised to find that she could not feel the flow of conductive force around her at all. Only the power in her body was still flowing!
"Mr. Fangzheng, what are we going to do in this world?"
At that moment, Emma opened her eyes and asked. Although she was surprised to come to another world, as a Demoness, Emma had heard a lot of secret information about this world. Therefore, she was not that surprised and quickly regained her senses.
"It's simple. Adventure, battle, and explore. No one knows what kind of world this is or what kind of enemies are hiding here, so you must be 120% vigilant. Emma, Altina, can you still use conductive magic? "
"This …."
Upon hearing Fangzheng's question, Emma and Altina closed their eyes and sensed for a moment.
"It'll consume a lot of energy, so I can only use low-level conduction spells."
"The lightsaber can be used. There's no problem."
"Very good, then let's go."
Fangzheng gestured for the other three to follow.
"Be careful, we're not sure …"
However, before he finished his sentence, Fangzheng turned around abruptly, drew out his black dagger, and stared at the forest vigilantly. At the same time, Laura also turned around and pulled out the greatsword hanging on her back. Altina raised her hand. Along with this action, a pitch-black humanoid mechanical device appeared behind her.
"What's wrong? Eh? "
Only Emma was slower by half a beat. After all, the storm had caused quite a bit of disturbance to her. But soon, Emma also sensed ….. rustling sounds coming from the depths of the forest, as well as ….. the howls of wild beasts.
"Wu … Wu Wu!!!"
The next moment, several black shadows suddenly leaped out from the surrounding bushes and pounced at the four!
"Earth Shattering Slash!"
Facing the incoming shadow, Laura roared and swung the greatsword in her hand. Three streaks of sharp sword qi tore through the earth like the claws of a ferocious beast, directly striking the shadow in front of her and sending it flying.
"Sun God's Spear!"
At the same time, the petite silver-haired girl raised her arm. At her command, a pitch-black humanoid mecha floated out from behind her. A golden spear of light suddenly appeared in its hand, and it shot forward with all its might, completely piercing through the black shadows that pounced at the silver-haired girl.
"Wind Domain!"
Emma raised the conducting wand in her hand. Under her summons, the surrounding wind instantly froze, roared, and spun to form a tornado. It was like a vortex that trapped the black figure within. Following that, Fangzheng raised the pitch-black broadsword and swung it forcefully. With a flash of purple lightning, the shadows trapped in the whirlwind were swept away in an instant.
In the blink of an eye, the ambush ended just like that. It was only then that everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
"Phew … It's really different to fight in a place without the Conduction Staff."
Laura clenched her greatsword and exhaled softly. Yaltina nodded and spoke in a flat tone like a humanoid machine.
"The consumption of the Lightsaber is far greater than expected. We need to act cautiously."
"But what the hell is this?"
After making sure that the danger had been eliminated, Emma raised her Conduction Staff curiously and summoned a light ball to shine on a black corpse not far away. When she saw the black figure clearly under the light, her expression changed.
"What, what's this?!"
"What's wrong? Emma? "
Hearing Emma's cry, Laura, Yaltina, and Fangzheng walked over. When they saw the true face of the black figure, Laura's eyes widened in surprise, while Fangzheng whistled. Even Yaltina, who looked as expressionless as a puppet, showed a hint of surprise.
Under the light, lying on the ground was a creature that looked like a wild dog. The reason it looked like a wild dog was because its appearance was similar to a wild dog, but its body was in a terrible state. Its body seemed to have been torn apart and rotten, exposing large chunks of flesh and blood. Its fur had also fallen off, leaving only bright red muscles and white bones. Not only that, even its head was crisscrossed with flesh and blood, and sharp teeth protruded from its mouth. It looked hideous and terrifying.
"What's this? A demon? "
Laura couldn't help but cry out. Although the girls in the martial arts department had undergone some training under Ariosse's arrangement after coming to Crossbell, and there was no lack of training to eliminate magical beasts and even wanted ones, this was the first time they had seen such a terrifying and strange monster.
Fangzheng pursed his lips.
This thing … Seems like I was right.
"What should we do now? Mr. Fangzheng? "
Emma took two steps back and looked around anxiously again. Then, she raised her head and asked Fangzheng.
"It's very dangerous here. Although we don't know where we are right now, judging from the previous situation, there seem to be a lot of terrible monsters wandering around in this forest. I suggest we find a safe place as soon as possible and make further plans …. "
"There are traces of artificial lights at the foot of the mountain. I suggest we take refuge there."
At the same time, Yaltina stretched out her hand and pointed to the foot of the hill. Following the direction of her finger, they saw traces of light in the dark forest.
"Okay, it's decided then. Everyone, be careful."
Fangzheng nodded and strode down the hill. The others followed closely behind. They formed a battle formation and set off for the foot of the hill.
Fortunately, everything went smoothly this time. They didn't see the strange wild dogs again until they reached the foot of the hill. At the same time, they saw the true face of the artificial light.
That's ….
"A conductive train?"
Emma exclaimed when she saw the bright red train parked quietly on the tracks.
"Are we in the Empire now?"
"That doesn't look like an Empire train."
Laura shook her head to refute Emma's statement.
"Besides, don't you think it's strange? Why would a train stop here? "
"This …."
Emma also had doubts when she heard Laura's question. Indeed, why would a train stop here in the middle of nowhere? Could it be that something had happened here?
"In any case, we'll know once we go in and take a look."
Fangzheng walked to the door and gestured to the three of them. Then, he stretched out his hand, pulled the handle, and slowly opened the door.
Fangzheng rushed in. At the same time, the other three girls hurriedly followed Fangzheng into the carriage.
When they saw the scene in the carriage, they gasped in shock.
"This is ….?!"
"So tragic ….!!"
As far as the eye could see, all the passengers in the carriage were covered in blood. They were lying on the ground and on the seats. Their flesh and blood had split open, and it seemed that they had lost their lives. Laura and Emma's faces turned pale. Although the two of them had experienced many battles, it was the first time they had seen so many corpses.
"This … doesn't look like they were killed by humans."
Emma took a deep breath to calm herself down. Then, she came to a corpse and calmly examined it.
"There are no signs of gunshot or sword wounds on the wounds. Instead, there are many bite marks."
"You mean … monsters … like those outside?"
Laura raised her greatsword and vigilantly surveyed the surroundings. Emma nodded in response.
"I'm not sure, but I don't see any traces of those monster hounds …."
"Ugh …."
Just as everyone was carefully inspecting their surroundings, a low groan suddenly came from a seat not far away. Under the dim light, they could see a black figure struggling to get up. Seeing this, Emma hurriedly stood up and went to the figure's side.
"Are you okay? Mister, do you need help …. "
However, before Emma could finish her sentence, Fangzheng suddenly reached out and grabbed her arm. He pulled her back forcefully and pulled her behind him. Almost at the same time, the black figure suddenly jumped up and fell heavily to the ground, almost brushing against Emma who was pulled away. But soon, it let out a low groan again and slowly stood up.
"This …. This is …."
Seeing this scene, Emma was completely stunned. The person in front of her was not an injured person. His body was bruised, his skin was blue, and his clothes were torn. The conspicuous and huge wound on his neck showed that he was dead.
Yes, he was dead. But at this moment, the man stood up shakily and walked towards Fangzheng and the others. He let out a beast-like roar, raised his hands, and swayed unsteadily. His steps were slow, but there was a sense of uneasy fear ….
"Lightsaber!"
Yaltina shouted again. Her dark humanoid tactical shell appeared out of thin air and punched the man in front of her, sending him flying and crashing into the wall not far away. But the man did not seem to feel any pain at all. He got up shakily again and walked towards the target in front of him unyieldingly.
But that was not all.
At the same time, the passengers who had collapsed on their seats and were long dead also let out strange growls. Then, they slowly stood up and pounced on Fangzheng and the others in front of them.
Seeing this, Laura and Emma were completely stunned.
What the hell is going on?!
