Twelve Trials from Scratch

"Well, suddenly I don't want to go anymore."

"Nani!?"

……

After a farce in the car, the heavy atmosphere faded a lot.

The village of Alam was not far away, and unexpectedly there were no traps and ambushes on the road, so not long after, everyone arrived at the destination in a dragon cart, and then... saw ruins and corpses all over the ground.

Chapter 21 The beginning of the original plot collapse

A village that seemed to have been ravaged by a herd of beasts appeared in front of everyone.

The houses were burning, as if they had been knocked out of the gap by some huge beast, bricks, stones and pieces of furniture were scattered everywhere.Strange footprints, large and small, remained on the road in the village. As far as the eye could see, there were corpses and bloodstains everywhere.

Those corpses include men and women, old and young, some unarmed, some holding swords and agricultural tools, some were beheaded by swords, some were eaten by wild animals, and some were cut open by knives, exposing their intestines... Against the backdrop of the erratic firelight, the strong smell of blood and burnt smell, the scene is miserable and disgusting.

"How could this happen!? Lunas, Boom, Tucker, Petra..."

Grabbed by the terrifying scene, Subaru Natsuki jumped off the dragon cart, walked into the village, turned his head around in horror, and subconsciously searched for familiar figures among the corpses around him.

Soon, a familiar figure appeared in his field of vision, making him froze suddenly.

"Ian!!"

Natsuki Subaru ran over quickly, looked down at the middle-aged man lying on the ground, his left hand covering his abdomen, lying in a pool of blood.He still remembered that this man was the father of a young girl named Petra who was very clingy to him, and he was a hearty and kind uncle... Although there were only these, it did not prevent the sadness and anger in his heart.

Suddenly, the middle-aged man who thought he was dead grabbed Natsuki Subaru's feet, almost stopping his heart.

"It's you... Brother Ang..."

The man struggled to raise his blood-stained face, and said with the last of his strength, "Be careful...and...please...help...Pate...pull..."

After the last word was pronounced, he lowered his head, finally exhausted.

Only then did Nayue Subaru come back to his senses, feeling the touch of that hand still gripping his ankle tightly, his body trembling, and looking at the dying face with lingering fear.Looking at each other for a moment, the inexplicable fear made him move his eyes away, and scanned the abdomen of the deceased, and found that some turquoise things were overflowing from the fingers and palms blocking the wound.

That's...intestines?

The moment I realized that, I felt as if I felt cramps in my abdomen, and the nausea surged out instantly, and I vomited out with a wow.

"It's ugly, Subaru. Isn't this time to vomit?"

Seeing this, Ram, who was following behind him, turned his gloomy face even colder.

"It's too much!" Emilia clenched her fists and turned her head to look around. "Who the hell? Why did you kill so many innocent people?"

Rem also had a cold face, without saying a word, he took out the large spiked hammer as a weapon, and guarded beside Ram vigilantly.

Su Qize looked around calmly, and said flatly: "The number of corpses is too small, and some people should have been taken away."

While speaking, he secretly thought in his heart: With so many people dead, it seems that reincarnation is inevitable, and if the mastermind behind this incident is really Roswaal, he will not hesitate to do this to achieve his goal. , its determination is by no means something that can be easily shaken.

"Let's go, continue to explore the village."

Not planning to stay here, Ram glanced at Subaru Natsuki, then turned and walked deeper into the village.

Rem hurriedly followed, and Emilia comforted Natsuki Subaru who was still retching with concern, and suggested that he stay outside the village for the time being, and then chased after him.

"Then, Your Excellency the Knight who was comforted by the princess, do you need me to lend you a shoulder to cry on?"

"Ha...ha...thank you for your concern, but...I'm not that fragile yet."

Despite his ugly face and soft feet, Natsuki Subaru finally stood up and picked up a long sword that had fallen beside the deceased.

"As a knight, Her Royal Highness can't let Her Royal Highness go into danger by herself..." With a look of fear but determination in his eyes, he said: "And... I promised this uncle that I will bring Petra back! "

"Then work hard, but... it may be difficult."

Su Qi said, looking towards the center of the village.

Relying on the ultra-long viewing distance of the pupil of truth, he had already seen the three enemies waiting there.One of them is "old friend" Elsa, the other is a young girl with blue hair in a black cloak and a short skirt, she should be the Warcraft envoy Meili, and the third is a young man whom he has no impression of.

He is tall and slender, wearing neat black trousers, a long sword hanging from his waist, short messy brown hair, eyes always squinting, and a mask-like stereotyped smile on his delicate face, giving Su Qi the feeling that... …weird and dangerous.

That man didn't appear in the animation, but he can also feel the danger, so he is definitely not an enemy that the maid sisters and Emilia can easily deal with, plus Elsa and the Warcraft envoy next to him... there is no doubt , if he continues to hide his strength, he will definitely lose this wave of team battles.

The plot has almost completely gone off track...

In the mansion chapter of the original book, the only enemies are Rem and a group of monsters that rely on numbers to win. Even the monster envoys didn't show up, but now it's three strong men joining forces, and the difficulty has directly risen from the normal level to the abyss level.Without the help of other external forces, even if 486 turns on the death return hang, it can't beat it with the head.

So do you want to expose your strength and help?No, it's not that far yet... Anyway, I'm destined to reincarnate, why not take this opportunity to collect more information...

So still according to the original plan, Su Qi thought calmly, calmly chose the most favorable plan, and calmly watched everyone step into death.

On the other side, at the same time when Su Qi and Caiyue Subaru followed Ram and the others, in the open space in the center of the village, hundreds of villagers were surrounded by all kinds of strange monsters, trembling in fear .Among the monsters, the most eye-catching one is a pig-shaped monster that is as tall as a two-story building, more than three feet long, and wrapped in rocks all over its body.

The surrounding burning houses illuminated the open space. A man, a woman, and a young girl, three people dressed in black stood on the monster named "Rock Pig", watching the entire open space condescendingly.

Suddenly, a three-eyed demon bird swooped down from mid-air, and landed on the shoulders of a young girl with blue hair and braids sitting on the rock pig.

"Here we come. Elsa, Brother Flagg, Xiaoji said someone is coming."

After exchanging in a strange animal language for a while, the young girl named Meili cheerfully informed her companions of the news.

"Hehe, is it finally here?" Elsa next to her licked her lips, her eyes fluttered, and she said happily: "I can fight that guy again. This time, I must see the color of his intestines."

"Elsa, I have nothing against your personal interests, but the premise is to do a good job."

On top of the rock pig's head, a young man named Flagg stood firmly in the night wind, looked down at the villagers below, and said with a smile, "You are also a professional killer, and you will be able to complete this trivial matter without any flaws. Bar?"

"Ah, don't worry, it's a pity that I can't play to my heart's content, but since it's the order of my mother, I can only listen to you."

"Very well, I like to cooperate with professional partners. Time is money, time is life, let's respect each other's life and money as much as possible."

After he finished speaking, he suddenly frowned slightly, and his figure disappeared in place in an instant.

The next moment, in the open space surrounded by monsters, in front of a mother and child embracing each other in fear, Flagg's figure suddenly appeared. He leaned forward, approached with a smiling face, and said softly, "Just now, your child cried right?"

"No...no..." The woman was trembling with fear, she tightly covered the mouth of the boy in her arms with her hands, her face was pale, and tremblingly said: "Ta... Tucker really didn't cry, it should be the wind It's too big, so...so..."

"So I got it wrong? You mean I got it wrong? Are you sure? Sure? Sure? Do you really think I got it wrong? I'm professional, professional, do you really think Did I hear you wrong? Aren’t you talking nonsense and slandering me? This kind of behavior will cause great damage to my professional reputation, so do you really want to say that? I... will be very angry."

Flagg was still smiling, and his tone was not fierce, but rather calm, but a growing sense of oppression continued to overflow from his body, as if a cold hand was pinching a woman's neck, tightening it little by little. , so that the fear in her heart was getting higher and higher, almost suffocating.

"No...we were wrong...sorry...please...please let him go!"

Unable to bear the growing sense of urgency, the woman finally spoke the truth.

"Ah, look, I'm really right, right? I'm a professional, so how could I be wrong?" Flagg finally retracted his forward leaning body, nodded in satisfaction, and then changed the subject, "But it seems like this , as captives, you are very unprofessional. Time is money, time is life, and because of your unprofessionalism, I wasted a lot of time. In this way, it is equivalent to murdering and robbing me, right? "

At the same time as the words fell, the woman felt a flash of coldness in front of her eyes, and then...the child in her arms suddenly twitched, and some kind of warm liquid sprayed all over her hands...it was blood, sprayed from her son's neck of blood.

When she realized this, her whole body seemed to be frozen by the bone-piercing chill, her mind went blank for a moment, and she immediately screamed in extreme terror.However, as soon as the voice came out, he felt a chill in his neck, his head rolled down, and blood gushed out from the cut like a fountain.

"what!!"

The bodies of the mother and child fell to the ground. The sudden tragedy made other nearby villagers startled and screamed at the same time.But in the next second, all the screams stopped, replaced by a more intense smell of blood in the air, a few more corpses, and the extremely terrified eyes of the nearby villagers.

"That's why I hate working with amateurs, always murdering my life and money."

Shaking his head slightly, taking back the sword that had been unsheathed at some time, Flagg walked out of the frightened crowd and came to the edge of the open space facing the entrance of the village. Looking at Su Qi and his party who just arrived, he smiled and said: " Well, it would be great if you were professional enemies."

"what?"

As soon as he arrived at the scene, strange people said strange things, and Cai Yueang, who was the most impatient and full of anger, immediately responded coldly, "What stupid things are you talking about? Look at everyone, you are the enemy, right? The people in the village are Did you kill them? Who are you? Why did you do such a thing!?”

"Hey... it seems to be an amateur... no, it's not even an amateur."

"Were all those people killed by you?"

Emilia looked behind Flagg, because the surrounding crowd actively avoided, the corpses that had just appeared were very eye-catching.

"That's right." Without any shyness or guilt, the latter admitted with a smile and nod, "Because they are too unprofessional, I can only give them a small punishment."

"A little punishment!? That's murder! Your behavior is unforgivable!"

"Oh, this one is a little better than an amateur. The blue-haired maid in the back is stronger, and the pink-haired maid... Very good, it seems to be a professional..."

As if he didn't feel the slightest pressure, he ignored Emilia's anger, turned his eyes, commented on everyone leisurely, and finally set his eyes on Su Qi, and then...the smile on his face finally froze.

"Damn it!!" Suddenly showing unprecedented fury, he stared at Su Qi, gritted his teeth and said, "It's a big loss! That bastard, after the work is done, he must ask him to increase the money! Triple! No, ten times ! No, let’s just kill him!”

Hearing this, Caiyue Subaru frowned, and looked at Su Qi with doubts.

At this time, Elsa and Mei Li came over and stood side by side with Flagg.

"Brother, we met again, did you take good care of your intestines?" When the intestine hunter came, his face flushed, and he looked at Su Qi with fiery eyes.

"Tonight is very lively..." Holding a puppy-like monster in his arms, the monster greeted everyone with a child-like innocent and happy smile, "Big brothers and sisters, let's play happily together later."

"Oh, it's hard work for a man to be popular with women."

Ignoring Elsa's question, Su Qi sighed lightly, and turned to look at Emilia, who was still angry, "Then, Your Highness, the next step is to follow the procedure to make a few rounds of talk, or just gang up and beat you to death." Their faces are blooming?"

Before the latter answered, he immediately calmed down, and Flagg, who had regained his smiling expression, took the lead and said, "Please wait a moment, we don't intend to start a war right away."

"We don't care what you guys want to do!" Natsuki Subaru said angrily, "Do you think we'll let you leave easily after doing such a thing?"

"Of course not, but..."

As if the host had lifted the curtain, Flagg backed away sideways, and stretched out his hand to draw everyone's attention to the rear. The many villagers surrounded by all kinds of ferocious monsters said leisurely: "Everyone, please ignore those captives and directly contact us. Let’s go to war? In that case, as long as Meili gives an order, these poor villagers will be killed by monsters in the blink of an eye.”

Reaching out to stop Subaru Natsuki who was about to speak again, Ram said coldly: "So, what do you want us to do?"

"It's very simple." Flagg pointed to Su Qi, then to Nayue Subaru, and said with a smile: "As long as these two men have a life-and-death duel and decide the winner, we will let those poor villagers Let us leave... One life is exchanged for so much, this condition is very sincere, right?"

Chapter 22 No, it's not professional

"What a joke!!"

Nayue Subaru shouted angrily, "You madman! You want us to kill each other, do you think we would do such a stupid thing?"

"But if you don't do it, you can only let them die."

Flagg turned sideways again, letting out a look of fear behind him, but he didn't even dare to make a sound, and could only look at the villagers coming over with longing eyes.

They recognized Ram and Rem, recognized them as Lord Lord, and even many people recognized Natsuki Subaru. They were eager for someone to save them from this nightmare, and that It is the responsibility of Roswaal and Emilia camp.

In it, Natsuki Subaru saw a solitary orange-haired young girl huddled in a corner, extremely frightened but extremely longing, staring at her with teary eyes.That was Petra, the child who was most clingy to him, the one whom he had secretly promised to the middle-aged man and wanted to rescue as much as he could.
