Instant Death

Fire pillars keep rising, and the things that would have made up the city there fly in flames.

The night fog just kept staring at it blurrily.

I know what's going on, but that's why I couldn't do anything.

"Er... that's a city in the neutral zone, right?"

Chika Chi checked with Scott.

"Ah. Beyond this boundary is the Neutral Zone, and that's all there is."

"Ah, we're new to this continent, so I'm surprised. Is that what happens here all the time?"

"No, I've never seen anything like it. Quite surprised."

"How many neutral zones are there?"

I heard the night mist, even though I had a bad feeling.

The immediate goal of the Night Fog is to gather information.

I wished I could find out where the wise men are and where they broke up, but if the Neutral Zone was the only place there, I suddenly lost all my help.

"As far as I know, this is the only neutral zone.It serves as a relay point to the rest of the continent, with each faction shifting to the Neutral Zone. "

Well, that's a pretty bad thing that's going on in that city.

"Yes, well, I hope we can rebuild it even if the city is crushed...."

"But I have to go to the Neutral Zone for now.I don't think there's a city, but people from all factions are coming. "

The Neutral Zone was a non-war zone.It seems to be a gentlemen's agreement, but it is a valuable place to get food from the outside, so none of the factions did anything rough here.

"Er, is that, indirectly, our fault?"

The L unit in Himelon, which attacked Scott, seems to have heard where the Night Fog are going.

Scott honestly told us that the night fog was headed for the Neutral Zone, so someone in the Himmern Land should have headed for the Neutral Zone.

Probably.

"No, no, no. Then let's hurry up a little bit."

"But you can't help it.I'm not saying it's not relevant to us, but it's a little different because of us, isn't it? "

"Hmm. I'm sure it's the one who attacked the city... Ah, the one who's floating."

Chihira Chi looks at the distance with her unusual vision, as usual.

I wasn't sure about the night fog, but I guess I knew Chiyoshi was floating.

"What's going on?"

"A man like a prince and a fat woman.I think the woman came here a while ago. "

"The one who escaped, he brought his people back."

But if he came to get revenge, I understand, but I didn't know why he was attacking an unrelated city.

"Ah, look at me and tell me something..."

At the moment Chiyoshi said so, the boundary walls of the night mists flashed violently.

Something hit the boundary wall.

The inhabitants of this continent cannot cross this wall unless they consume points.It certainly seemed true, and a man dressed like a prince, as Chiyoka said, was stuck to the wall.

Apparently, he saw the night mist and forgot about me in anger.

"You were so far away, you came here in a flash. Amazing."

The night fog was honestly impressed.

Recently, the enemy may have been a monster, but I didn't really understand the specifics.

But this man came here at an incredible speed, and he knows exactly how incredible it is.

Well, if he's the one who's after you, he'll have points and things.If we just get a little settled down, they'll come across the wall.But we can get out of the wall, so we can escape. What should we do?

"Can we talk about this?"

"I don't think I can see it anyway!"

I won't give up where I ran away from here, and it will be troublesome depending on the timing of the encounter if I keep coming after you.Then I thought it would be better to settle on this occasion.



Gérard, the prince of the land of Himmern, and Marino, the maid of Nina, her sister, came to the village where Nina died.

It appeared in the center of the area during the transition and flew from there.

Marino, tell me more about what happened here.

Previously on Gerard, he had forgotten me and was intense, but he seems to have regained a little calm.

Marino talked about how Nina died over the village.

This is an area controlled by the Himmern State, with the Slow Life Alliance contiguous.The Slow Life Alliance is coming to occupy this area, so Nina and the others were here to defend themselves.

The marching units are routinely collecting points from people infected with Seyla.I sent my men to the village as usual, but there was no regular contact and the soldiers didn't come back.

So Nina, who boiled the business, went straight to the village.

Then some of the soldiers were dead.Apparently, uninfected civilians appeared as enemies.

And Nina, who was talking to the enemy boy, suddenly fell to the ground.

Marino hastily retrieved Nina and relocated her to her base.

"You said the enemy does not belong to any faction.Who are you? "

"It seemed like a pair of boys and girls.I don't know the details, but I think we had a fight with the soldiers. "

"As usual, when the S-unit soldiers are defeated....."

I don't want to believe that my beloved Nina is dead.Of course there was, but Nina wasn't supposed to be killed because of her traits.

Nina is an M-unit, but has the ability to Evade without hitting any attack.Sometimes you can't beat a strong enemy, but you can't just die.Everyone thought so.

"I didn't know what happened.Nina suddenly fell.... "

"Well, whatever they are, they don't just kill them.I will punish you for eternity. "

If the inexplicable being that killed Nina, the Absolute Evade, becomes the enemy, it will not be too vigilant.But Marino had nothing to worry about.

Marino was convinced that Gerard would never lose.

Gerard got off the ground.

Nearby, a man with a Seyla infection fell down, and his body suddenly rose.

Numerous needles suddenly emerged from the ground, piercing and pushing up the man's body.

"These guys are usually blurry.If you want me to talk to you, you need to be aware. "

Marino didn't know Gerard had this ability, but Gerard's abilities are diverse.No wonder I had any abilities.

"Someone must have killed a soldier in Himmern. Where are you?"

"... I don't know... make it difficult..."

"I know you feel pain.I'll hurt you until you spit it all out. "

"I'll talk, so don't waste it."

That was the kid who crouched down with his back in the building.

"It was a boy named Takao Mist who came here and killed the soldiers of the Himmern kingdom.I came with a girl named Chika Tanoura.He said he was heading south to the Neutral Zone. "

Torture is meaningless for people living with Seyla, and it is uncertain whether they are telling the truth when they are forced to say it.

But Marino thought it reasonable to testify that someone who killed Nina was headed for the Neutral Zone.

There isn't much around here, so if you go somewhere, there's only about that.

And they won't have a reason to lie, and they won't have the strength to just lie.

"The back length is a little lower than yours.You said you came from outside the continent.He was dressed like he didn't see around here, so you'll see soon enough.That's all I can say.So let him go. "

"Well, that doesn't sound like a lie."

The needle disappeared and the man's body fell.

"Do you know if I'm telling the truth?"

"Oh, I can't do it until I read it in my mind, but I know if it's a lie.Marino, let's go to the Neutral Zone. "

"Yes"

Gerard appears in space and begins moving south.

Marino followed, but a little while later Gerald turned around stationarily.

And then the village vanished.

The flames that blown out of the earth burned everything that was there in an instant.

"This is...."

"Maybe he's hiding somewhere."

"But... even if there were people here to search, they wouldn't know anything anymore..."

"That's fine. I can resurrect the killer and use him."

Marino had never heard of the ability to do such a thing, but she was immediately convinced that Gerard could do it.

"... but apparently there was no one here but Seyla. Let's go."

Gerard resumed his journey.

We quickly reached the Area Boundary Wall, but Marino realized that she had not collected the points.

Points stored in the base will be used for relocation from the base, but the relocated units do not have points and cannot be moved to adjacent areas unless points are collected locally.

"No problem. I also collected points when I burned the village earlier."

Usually we use an item called a cylinder to retrieve energy from people infected with cylinders, but Gerard can also retrieve and hold it directly.

When Gerard reached for the area boundary, part of the semi-transparent boundary wall shined rainbow.I suppose they put two points on the wall.

As they passed the rainbow gate, the boundary wall returned to a semi-transparent state.

As soon as I went south, I saw the city.

Various people from four factions are active in the city, and the infected Seyla have been completely eliminated.

It serves as a few contacts with the rest of the continent, and about 10,000 people live here.

"But... if you got run over here, it might be hard to find you."

There's nothing wrong with that.

"Hello, Mr. Gerard, do you have a way of investigating the whole city?"

"That's all I have to do."

Gerard was fine, and the city was flamed in an instant.

The fierce flames that blow from the earth ascend to heaven, burning everything down.

What we're doing is the same as what we did in the village earlier.

However, the scale and impact are different.

This is not a village where only Seyla infected people live.It's a delicate city with a delicate balance of factions.

No matter how much Gerard, the prince of the Himmern kingdom, I did not think it would be enough.

"Are you sure you want to do this?"

"So, you want me to listen here and relax?"

"There are also people in the hands of the Himmern Kingdom here!"

"So what happened?"

Marino thought Gerard had regained his coolness.But Gerard was just broken.All I can think about is avenging Nina, and I can't see anything else.

"Will it take a while?"

Countless lights rose from the burning city and flew to Gerard.

They must be like people's souls.

The light was sucked into Gerard's hand and disappeared.

Gerard closes his eyes and concentrates.You must be examining the soul.I'm trying to find out if there's any far-reaching night fog in there that killed Nina.

The stream of light calmed down, and eventually the light stopped flying.The people of the city must have died.Gerard opened his eyes.

"You weren't here."

"So, what do we do?"

"If you do not belong to any faction, there will be no transfer to the main faction.Then we'll have to move the area one by one.I'll have to lice it. "

"If you do that, L units from other countries will come out!"

"I don't mind. If they're going to challenge us, we'll have to intercept everything."

Those on this continent called L Units are off track.

If we fought directly, the scale of the damage could not even be imagined, and the L unit was treated as a rare trump card.

--We have to do something...

The far-reaching night fog must bear Gerard's hatred all by itself.If we don't find it soon, Gerard's indiscriminate killings will spread.

Marino looked around.

Perhaps the far-reaching night fog is around here.If you're heading south, you should be in this area, even if you're not in town.

Enhance your vision with magic and observe when desperate.But I couldn't find anything.

Marino, look over there.

"Ha, yes!"

At Gerard's behest, Marino looked north.That's where the village was.There were three people there.

Two boys and a girl.Among them was a far-reaching night fog.

The boy who killed the soldiers and killed Nina, Marino will never forget.

"No doubt! That boy killed Nina!"

I see.

And Gerald disappeared.

Distant area boundaries blink violently.Gerard moved and crashed in an instant.Isn't it cool after all?To cross area boundaries, you need to spend points to build a gate, which takes some time.

Marino chased after Gerard in a hurry.
