Chapter 295: Small Town Crisis, Girl Losing Hope
Before the crusade.
In a corner of the town.
Ike sat alone in the shadows, his eyes empty and without his former sharpness.
Since that failure and the loss of teammates.
He never left the town again.
Just then, a young man walked into Ike's sight.
His name is Bridger, he is Ike's friend and one of the captains of the new adventurer team.
As soon as he walked in and saw Ike's appearance, an inexplicable anger surged in his heart.
He was angry at Ike for not fighting back and felt that Ike shouldn't give up on him like that.
"Ike, look at what you look like now!"
Bridger exclaimed.
"You used to be so brave and ambitious!"
"Why are you so decadent now?"
"Are you just going to give up on yourself like this?"
"you"
"If you don't understand, don't talk nonsense!!!"
Ike interrupted Bridger.
"What on earth do you understand?!"
Ike raised his head, a hint of confusion and pain in his eyes.
He knew he was in a bad state.
"you"
Seeing this, Bridger took a deep breath and continued:
"Ike, join my team"
However, Ike was indifferent to Bridger's invitation.
Click!
At this moment, Lisa opened the door and walked in.
"Ah, it's Lisa."
Bridger was overjoyed to see Lisa and greeted her.
"Well, long time no see"
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Lisa just nodded, glanced at Ike with a hint of disappointment in her eyes, put the food down, and walked out of the room.
"You guys are just going to let Lisa take care of you all the time?"
Bridger sounded very dissatisfied, glanced at Ike and cursed.
"waste."
Both of them like Lisa.
But Lisa didn't like them.
Ike put it down.
As for why we teamed up together, it was purely because of team and family relationships.
“My parents agreed.”
"so what?"
"I'm going to start pursuing Lisa"
Bridger looked at Ike seriously.
Ike widened his eyes, was stunned for a moment, and pretended to be calm:
"Well, that's none of my business."
"Really"
Bridger said before he left.
"I really didn't expect that you would fall to this point."
boom!
The door is closed.
As time passed, it gradually became dark outside, and the originally noisy sounds gradually quieted down.
At this time, most adventurers in the town went hunting and conquering the Goblin's lair.
This is also normal.
After all, there are so many rewards.
"It's really awesome!"
Ike took a sip and sighed drunkenly.
“Why are they so brave?”
Ike didn't understand. He didn't comprehend.
"Correct."
"It must be that they haven't experienced or seen hell."
After Ike found an excuse for himself, he picked up the bottle of wine beside him and took a sip.
call!
In a daze, he felt that the surroundings were getting brighter.
Along with it comes the slowly rising temperature.
"what happened?"
Ike slowly opened his drunken eyes and saw a sea of red outside the window. What he heard were continuous cries for help and insults.
"Help!"
"It's the Goblins. The Goblins are coming."
"what?!"
Hearing the goblin, Ike instantly opened his eyes and stuck his head outside.
At this time, it was a sea of red outside, and countless flaming arrows shot towards the town like meteors, setting the houses on fire.
And from not far away, there was a green figure with a ferocious mouth and a lewd smile.
"That, that's a goblin?!"
This horrible scene immediately caused him inner trauma.
“Well, that’s scary.”
He immediately shrank into the corner of the room, holding his head and trembling.
Why. Why, they are here.
Tears rolled down his eyes.
"Help"
At this moment, a familiar childish voice was heard, causing Ike to raise his head and peek through the crack in the door at the child who was cornered by the goblins.
Xiaoling, his neighbor's child, brings him meals every day.
He wanted to save her.
But, it's so scary.
"no, do not want"
Xiaoling shrank her body, looking at the goblin with fangs slowly approaching with a look of fear on her face.
"crunch, crunch!"
The goblin let out a cry of pleasure, just as he reached out his evil hand and touched the girl.
Snapped!
A dark shadow attacked and knocked him away.
"No,"
No.
Ike held the rusty iron sword in his hand, facing the goblin who was slowly standing up, his hands shaking.
Obviously, I should be very scared.
Why, he wants to rush out.
He wanted to run away, but he couldn't move his feet.
When I turned around, the goblins were already in front of me.
He closed his eyes and tried to swing the sword, but his hands would not obey him.
brush!
A petite figure suddenly appeared and then waved.
Then, there was the sound of the sword blade rubbing against the air.
puff.
Warm blood sprayed on Ike.
"never mind"
Hearing the cold and childish voice, Ike slowly opened his eyes, and what came into his sight was the headless goblin.
"what!"
He cried out and fell down along with the goblin's body.
"Are you okay?"
That cold and childish voice rang out. Ike looked up and when he saw the person who saved him, he showed a shocked expression.
The person who rescued him was a little girl of about eleven or twelve years old, who was a head shorter than him.
But from her cold face, there is no trace of the tenderness and innocence that she should have at this young age.
“As long as it’s okay”
Xiaoyu just glanced at him indifferently, then left with the sword in hand. She was so fast that even Ike couldn't see clearly.
What kind of monster is this?
And what kind of waste is he.
A piece of trash that needs protection.
"Brother, I'm so scared!"
Just when Ike was feeling lost, Xiaoling, the girl he had protected, hugged him from behind and cried.
"Mom and Dad were killed by the green monster in order to protect me"
"Big brother, me"
“Don’t be afraid”
Ike's hand, which was originally floating in the air, fell on Xiaoling's head.
"Big brother, I will protect you"
Even though his hands were shaking, he still felt the feeling of being relied on and protected.
This joy of surviving with great difficulty.
This made Ike unable to help but promise and agree.
He tightened his grip on the sword, the sound of the world echoing in his mind.
[You have attracted the attention of a star in the sky and the galaxy]
Xiaoyu walked through the town full of goblins.
Some goblins had their necks stabbed without them noticing.
But this power, used without restraint, always has a price.
Courage made her lose the protection of herself.
Facing the goblin's slashing attack, in order to avoid wasting energy, Xiaoyu dodged the attack with the smallest amplitude.
But the sharp blade still left wounds on her body.
Tiny wounds continued to accumulate on her body.
The originally snow-white clothes would be stained red with blood in a short while.
"What the hell are you doing?"
At the same time, Arna, with scales appearing on her neck, finally caught Xiaoyu who was running around.
"you know"
Arna was about to say something when she saw Xiaoyu's empty eyes.
"what?"
"Kill these goblins, of course?"
"If you use this power recklessly like this, you will die!"
Arna was very distressed and scolded loudly, but Xiaoyu remained indifferent.
"so what?"
Blood dripped from her arm, but Xiaoyu's cold and empty expression seemed to tell a story.
She doesn't care.
She should have died in that fire.
[Above the sky, the star named "brave" is watching you]
