And there's her forehead...it seemed like her forehead had rubbed against something while she was falling.
The battle broke out very quickly. After Russell fired the first shot, a gunfight broke out between the two sides.
Horses kept falling and people were getting their heads blown off, but the knights were indifferent. They charged towards the fence fearlessly, using the speed of their horses and the sacrifice of their companions to successfully break through the fence, and drew their scimitars to cut people down.
The closest ones were Eugenie and Jerry.
Seeing that they were unable to resist, Eugenie even hugged Jerry tightly, and a bright knife flashed, cutting off the knight's right hand.
"'Long Summer' can cause harm..."
Xia Yibing swung the knife instinctively, and was stunned by the result.
Then she frowned: This shows that the other party is not a pure human being at all! But an evil species! At least he has something to do with the evil species!
I almost let these things in just now?
Although it is true that the other party disguised themselves too well, if we only look at the results, what will happen to them if they really do that?
Driven by anger, the light of the Changxia Sword became even brighter.
Debris kept flying up from under the shade of the trees, and soon the five knights who had rushed in - including "Russell" himself - were chopped into human sticks by the violent woman, leaving only a few frightened horses running in circles around the fence.
Eugenie looked at Hitzfeld with gratitude, who was holding Sisyphus down and lying on the ground with her, and took Jerry to get the horse.
He saw that there was something hidden in this matter, which might involve some secrets.
After all, his life was saved again, and he didn't want to stay there, so he simply gave them some space.
"..." Sixus got up from the ground, touched her scalp, and found that her hair was shorter.
Severed by a bullet.
If Hitzfeld hadn't knocked her down, she would not have died due to the special characteristics of her body, but she would have definitely suffered serious injuries.
"Thank you."
Reluctantly thanking the girl, Xixus turned over and walked to Xia Yibing, staring at the row of human sticks with her.
“Speak.” The woman held the knife to Russell’s throat.
"Who are you and who sent you?"
Hitzfeld's movements were a little clumsy, and she saw this scene just as she stood up, and the burning pain in her left eye came again.
This is a warning.
Not only was the Blood of the Sun King giving her a warning, but also the remaining half of the Nature Orb was reminding her that the deadly crisis was not over yet.
She chose to follow her instinct.
She rushed forward before "Russell" changed, and at this moment, "Russell"'s face quickly changed into her appearance after looking at Xia Yibing, and seized the moment of her astonishment - like a lump of meat with a human face rising into the air - and flew straight towards the woman.
"Clap!"
Then he was grabbed tightly by a hand in mid-air.
"what--"
When the girl grabbed it, the disgusting thing seemed to have come into contact with magma and immediately let out a shrill scream.
With a "bang" it began to burn.
Hitzfeld suddenly let go, and watched with the others as the thing fell to the ground, curling up, twisting, and charring in the essence of the fire... and then turning into dust and completely dispersing.

Chapter 41: Going Westward
Faced with such a horrifying accident, Xia Yibing first took a step back, then paused and grabbed the girl's hand.
Eugenie and Jerry hugged each other, both of them had a dazed expression with their mouths slightly open.
Moore was holding the door of the cabin with one hand and was about to come out with his left foot raised, but when he saw this scene, he just stood there with his mouth wide open, looking like a country bumpkin who had never seen the world.
The most exaggerated reaction came from the mixed-haired loli.
All everyone heard was a quick scream - not loud, not intense, as if someone was trying desperately to make a sound, but was forced to restrain it because of some emotion - and then a figure pushed Moore aside and fled into the wooden house, and a chaotic commotion was heard from inside.
"My hand is fine." Hitzfeld tried his best to remain calm and said to the woman who was still carefully stroking and studying her right hand, "You might as well go and take care of Conte first."
Hands... If you don't count the functions of seeing, hearing, and smelling, hands and feet are undoubtedly the most frequently used limbs of humans. Previously, Lu Xier let her know how strange it felt to have the soles of her feet scratched, and now Xia Yibing brought a new discovery: it turns out that scratching the palms of your hands is just as itchy.
It was an itch, like there were nerves connected to your heartstrings, and every scratch of the other person's nails was a teasing.
After being scratched a few times, Hitzfeld couldn't stand it anymore. She wanted to pull it back forcibly, but the woman's hand was like a pair of pliers, and it was obviously impossible for her to break free.
Eugenie didn't look over here, he was obviously thinking about the safety of himself and his wife: he shot all the sticks in the face again to confirm that they were real corpses and that those anthropomorphic monsters would not suddenly jump out again.
"You can't just say that!" Xia Yibing didn't have so many romantic thoughts. She was still on the verge of anxiety and couldn't help but growl at her when she heard that.
Judging from the information currently available, they are facing a group of evil monsters with parasitic abilities.
The monsters themselves were not strong, probably only as strong as the meat ball that had just pounced on them. But they could parasitize the body through direct contact, and could change their appearance without restraint.
Such a dangerous thing... She really hated the girl for not taking care of herself and actually rushed up to protect her from the disaster.
I also hated myself for being slow to react and not noticing the danger in time.
"I'm really fine..." Hitzfeld's voice began to tremble.
The fingers were forced downwards, and the black silk gloves that were originally worn were forcibly torn open from the palm by the woman, revealing the fair and delicate skin and palm lines underneath.
This kind of treatment already made her feel very ashamed, not to mention that the woman's hand was still reaching into the silk sleeve... and she was still "examining" her in various ways.
She felt her body gradually becoming strange, the air became hot and dry, and her legs under her skirt became a little weak.
Fortunately, her hand was indeed fine, and Xia Yibing couldn't find anything wrong with it. Then she remembered that there was something more terrifying than the evil seed in the girl's body, and then she thought about what happened to the lump of rotten flesh when it came into contact with her palm just now... so she let her go for the time being.
"Go see Conte." Hitzfeld finally breathed a sigh of relief, quickly pulled his hand back, and said in an unquestionable tone: "This is very important."
"Why do you care about her so much?" Xia Yibing was stunned and looked at the wooden house with some displeasure.
"Who knows what's wrong with her..."
It's not that she is cold-blooded, but compared to a nearly immortal half-evil companion, she obviously cares more about her fragile lover.
She had only just gotten this treasure not long ago. It could be said that if Hitzfeld hadn't been unwilling, she would have wanted him to take a bath and go to the toilet with her.
"Then you stay here and watch over the body." Hitzfeld was helpless, "I'll be back soon."
"I want to go with you!" But the woman grabbed her wrist again and held it tightly.
I could see concern in her eyes, and I would be lying if I said I wasn't touched.
But... it was a little too intense, and Hitzfeld felt a little embarrassed. After a moment, he was forced to look away, and a blush appeared on his face.
This kind of look is usually seen when doing something special.
She felt embarrassed and couldn't help but complain in her heart: Xia really takes me too seriously...
But she still remembered what the most important task was now. Without saying much, she pulled the woman into the house, leaving Moore and the Copperfields on guard outside.
The house is a mess.
This may have been a temporary residence for forest rangers, but no one has lived here for a long time and the furniture is covered in dust.
Walking around the overturned boxes and chairs, and reaching out to push aside a spider web, Hitzfeld half-crouched down and saw Conte Sixus hiding in the small space made up of miscellaneous items, curled up and trembling.
Ah, she has this side...
Inexplicably, she felt that Sixus was particularly cute like this.
If there is time, I have to comfort her.
Although she thought so in her heart, Hitzfeld showed no mercy - she grabbed Sixus's arm and dragged her out, ignoring her glares and screams and approached her: "Quiet!"
The mixed-haired loli shuddered, and the light in her eyes dimmed slightly.
"I know what you are afraid of." Hitzfeld continued to speak in a very low voice, "But there is no time to be afraid now. We have to leave here as soon as possible."
Whatever that lump of meat was, it was right. This place was not far from Boris Manor.
Pursuers may come at any time, not only the Undead, but also Meat Paste's companions.
Sixus stared at Hitzfeld's blue eye and pursed his lips little by little.
Then he suddenly broke free from her and rushed out again as a shadow.
……
Ten minutes later, another group of horseback riders arrived and saw the cabin and the horses wandering around it at a glance.
The leader made a gesture, and the knights attacked from the flank, completely surrounding the entire wooden house.
Then someone dismounted, entered the fence, and stepped over the wreckage and corpses without batting an eyelid.
"There's no one inside!"
"There's none around!"
As his subordinates continued to report, the knight leader fell silent, then suddenly rode his horse around to the west side of the cabin.
He got off his horse, half-knelt on the ground and stroked it gently, then jumped out quickly and kicked away a bunch of scattered bushes.
A very obvious dragging plow mark appeared.
Judging from the scale of the traces, it should be a small wooden boat.
"They escaped by water."
The chief narrowed his eyes and looked towards the cabin with a half frown.
Just then a knight lifted the awning, revealing a pile of wreckage of a destroyed wooden boat.
……
Four hours later, Hitzfeld and his party boarded the only remaining small boat and entered the Winden River, and began to sail upstream to another city, Senling City.
Neither she nor Xia Yibing were sure whether the remains were Russell's, and the situation at the time obviously did not allow them to go back to the city to find someone to confirm. After thinking about it, leaving directly was the best option, after all, they didn't trust anyone now.
On the way, after obtaining Sixus's permission (although she seemed reluctant), she revealed some of her past experiences to her.
"So that monster is called a mimic?" Xia Yibing sighed and shook her head while rowing.
“It’s very vivid.”
Countess Sixus's entire childhood was shrouded by this monster, and this experience and memory are the source of her nightmares.
No wonder she had that reaction at that time.
After realizing this, Xia Yibing began to sympathize with Xixus on the one hand, but on the other hand, she felt happy.
It wasn't because she was gloating, but because she was finally 100% sure that Hitzfeld was just sympathizing with Sixus.
"It's very troublesome..."
Hitzfeld didn't know that Xia Yibing had just been jealous and was thinking about the next route while helping to row the boat.
"We are just one step away. We will never be able to return to Sara..."
I originally thought that they were here to pick up the descendants of the Dragon God and the treasure, but who knew that so many unexpected things would happen all of a sudden.
Prophecy and pursuit.
Even the mimicry demons that were supposed to have been extinct hundreds of years ago have appeared. Hitzfeld really couldn't imagine what the country's capital, Kerge, had become.
After all, she had seen their horror in Sixus's memory. Without restraint, the Mimics could easily destroy the trust of any settlement's people in their companions, and then use that gap to start killing and eat all the prey they could catch.
Those people knew to disguise themselves as Russell, and obviously they had investigated them. It goes without saying that they were also related to the Deathly Hallows Party, and might even involve the Queen of the Alliance.
Isn't Kerge already full of these monsters?
As he pondered, Hitzfeld looked at his companions who were sleeping beside him.
I don't know if going to Senling City is the right decision...
Chapter 42 High Heels
The road against the current is not easy.
Rowing requires more energy, and eating and drinking along the way is also a problem.
