I really only stop

"Yes……"

Chapter 413 Carriage or Teleportation?

"Huh - finally arrived at the place!"

Before the carriage stopped, she couldn't wait to jump down, and Celica stretched long:

"Why don't we use Yuxia's holy light magic to teleport over here? My body is weak and I can't sit in a carriage."

"That's when you declared yourself [weak body], Miss 'Magic Swordsman'."

Squeezing the shoulder of the lazy Lika who was spoiled by Miss Saint, seeing the former grinning sourly, Lu Xi tried to cheer her up with words:

"Don't you think that choosing a sunny day like this, a few people traveling slowly together in a carriage has the taste of an adventure story? Using the holy light to teleport over here, and then go back after doing something good, this is the same as in What is the difference between performing missions in Rhine City? There is no artistic conception at all."

"I don't care about artistic conception or not!"

Celica said she was unmoved at all:

"In my opinion, it's strange that Ruoyouxi is so obsessed with traveling in a carriage. Even if a random passerby is asked, he will definitely choose the latter when asked 'Do you prefer carriages or teleportation'!"

"Isn't it? Am I the only one who likes carriages?"

Realizing that Celica's expression was not fake, Lu Xi looked at Nana and Yushia in disbelief:

"How about you two?"

"For me, I also like the transmission of holy light a little more."

After thinking about it with a bit of embarrassment, the soft girl decided to speak her mind truthfully.At the same time, she looked at Lu Xi with some doubts:

"Isn't this way of moving in a carriage very common? Why do I have the feeling that Lu Xi is so obsessed with it because he hasn't been in a carriage much?"

"Ah this..."

The originally fluent words suddenly froze, and Lu Xi couldn't help but marvel at Nana's delicate observation.

Although Ruanmei has a relatively introverted personality, it is precisely because of this introverted but delicate heart that she can always pay attention to the people she cares about, and sometimes even guess the thoughts of those close to her.

However, it is precisely because of this concern for others that she often ignores her own feelings, resulting in an expression of "valuing others more than herself" - this is what Lu Xi has been encouraging her to step out of. Strange circle.

Closer to home, I didn't expect my thoughts to be guessed by Ruanmei.

This is also true when you think about it carefully. In the eyes of me, a traveler from a city on the earth, a carriage is a novelty with a strong fantasy style, but to the original residents of this world, a carriage is like a vehicle, bicycle, etc. Ordinary, unremarkable.

It's only natural that girls prefer powerful teleportation to horse-drawn carriages—this can be regarded as a small episode caused by the cultural differences between the two sides.

Coughing dryly, Lu Xi finally looked at Yuxia with some reluctance:

"What about Yuxia? Since you can use Holy Light to teleport, it is nothing new to you. You must prefer carriages, right?"

In this regard, Yuxiya just showed a quiet smile:

"As long as it's a trip with Lucy by my side, no matter which way I like it."

【Yusia is too good at it. 】

[Ding~ You have received a super straight ball attack, and you have entered a state of shaking. 】

When Lu Xi's head was a little bit down because of this sentence, the grassy light screen that popped up in time by the system successfully prevented him from [The male protagonist froze in place, it seems that only he and the bright girl in front of him are left in the world. A smile, a cherry blossom floats by in the wind, and the theme song sounds very timely] The gal often unfolds at the beginning.

Although I only want to grow grass, thank you, System!

Resignedly glanced at Miss Saint Empress, who always loves to play with sudden provocations, Lu Xi coughed lightly, and cleverly changed the subject before the other two could react:

"Then Yushia is also in the carriage team—in this way, the carriage team and the teleportation team are tied one to one, and Zelika's argument is not valid."

"Hey! Yuxia didn't say that she likes carriages just now, did she?"

"Hello, language is a very profound knowledge. In addition to the superficial meaning of the text, smart people will also interpret the hidden deep meaning in combination with the tone and context. Here I suggest you do more reading comprehension to save your low understanding Level."

"Huh? Are you calling me stupid in disguise?"

"It's really gratifying, you actually understood the [deep meaning] I just said so quickly, it seems that you are still saved."

"You, you bastard! Meow!!!"

When Zelika was easily irritated by Lu Xi again, and she was about to pounce with her teeth and claws, Miss Saintess naturally stopped between the two, showing a gentle but unquestionable smile:

"Didn't you say that the client is still waiting anxiously? You should also pay attention to the time when you are fighting, you know?"

In front of Yuxia's inexplicably oppressive MAX smile, the two who had been fighting just now calmed down immediately:

"I see, it's all Zerika's fault."

"I also understand, it's all weak and weak Xi's fault."

"Very good~ we must get along well in the future."

Nodding in satisfaction, Yuxia gracefully stretched out her hand to Nana who was still in the carriage, her movements were handsome and neat:

"Then, Nana, come down too."

"Uh-huh!"

A little blushing, she put her hand on Yuxia's palm, and with a little effort, Nana was lightly pulled out of the car by Miss Saintess.

...Why when I was pulled by Yuxia, I felt like a princess who was pulled off by a prince in a fairy tale?

Taking a deep breath to calm the shyness in her heart, Nana couldn't help but think like this:

That's probably what Lu Xi said about the 'beautiful carriage'.

No. [-] melon eater Lu Xi: "Yusia is too good at it."

Celica No. [-] of the people who eat melon seeds: "Well, it's really good."

——Too good dividing line——

When he saw the adventurer team appearing at the end of the main road from a distance, the mayor who almost waited until his eyes were pierced hurriedly greeted him:

"All adventurers are welcome to come from afar. My name is Martin, and I am the mayor of this small town."

[The mayor is a member of the imperial officials, you or I? 】

After understanding what Lu Xi meant, Yuxia smiled slightly, stepped back behind Lu Xi, and winked at him playfully.

【Come on~】

OK, I'll do it.

He didn't consider the option of Nana and the idiot Xiao Lika answering the call at all. Seeing the lady saint standing obediently behind him, Lu Xi quickly calmed down and politely grabbed the hand held by the mayor. hand:

"Hello, Mr. Martin. My name is Lu Xi. This time, our team will solve the incident you encountered."

"That's great. In fact, we don't want to trouble the adventurers to travel such a long distance. However, this trouble can't be solved by our strength alone."

Recalling the repeated attempts he and the townspeople have made in the past few weeks, Martin sighed a long time:

"The lives of the townspeople have been greatly affected by this. As the mayor, I am really ashamed of the mission entrusted to me by the empire."

Judging from the mayor's expression, what he said was really not a lie.The long-term lack of sleep and depression made the mayor look very bad. Even though he tried his best to welcome Lu Xi and his party, he was still weak as if he could be blown down by a gust of wind.

"Please don't say that."

A holy light that relieved fatigue suddenly shone on Mr. Mayor, and he looked up subconsciously in a little astonishment, just in time to see Yuxia's smile full of healing temperament:

"As long as you do your best within the scope of what you can do, no one will ever criticize you. Do what you are good at, and leave the things beyond your power to those who are capable of solving them. All working together towards a brighter future - this is the cornerstone of the empire's prosperity to this day."

Why does this lady of the clergy have the aura of a natural superior?Obviously gentle, but it makes people subconsciously want to obey.

This adventurer team is really reassuring.

"...Then thank you for your enlightenment."

Nodding in relief, the mayor, as if he had let go of some burden in his heart, breathed a sigh of relief, and made a gesture of please:

"Adventurers, time is urgent, let's explain the situation while going to the place where the incident happened."

Chapter 414 Changes in the Cemetery

"Eh?! Will there be any changes in the cemetery in the town at night?!"

Hearing the specific content of the commission, Nana, who is least good at dealing with ghost stories, immediately grabbed Lu Xi's sleeve:

"Please, what kind of abnormal movement is it? Will-o'-the-wisp? Screaming? Or the scariest... [Ghost]!?"

"To be honest, we don't know."

Shaking his head with a heavy expression, the mayor, who was leading the way, introduced:

"Beginning about a month ago, there was an indistinct roar from the cemetery in the town every night. No one could hear the specific content of the roar, but the loud boom that followed made every town People are terrified—yes, like this lady."

this lady?

Lu Xi was slightly taken aback.

Do you mean Nana?

Although the fact that the lord of the weird is terrified of ghosts is a bit of a problem, judging from the fact that she was able to pluck up the courage to ask about the situation just now, she couldn't reach the point of [incomparable fear], right?

"Well, it's over here."

Noticing Lu Xi's doubts, Yuxia coughed in a timely manner, pointed to a certain one that plunged into her arms, and kept chanting, "My Lady, bless you!"I am the overlord of fallen, fallen heavens, so I will not be afraid of any monsters and ghosts." Lika.

...Damn it, why didn't I think of this trick.

With a little envy, he looked at the super cute Lika who was rubbing back and forth on Yushia's chest, and then noticed the suspicious look from the mayor beside him [Are you really all right?], a vein appeared on Lucy's forehead , and lifted Lika out of Miss Saintess' embrace:

"Hey, please don't worry, Mr. Mayor. This coward is the mascot of our team. It's not in charge of fighting, but the kind that's only in charge of acting cute."

"This, this is good. When you start to hunt down the monsters that make trouble, you can entrust this lady to my servant. My wife is not only good at cooking, but also very good at taking care of people."

When mentioning his wife, Mr. Mayor first showed a smile, and then picked up the previous topic:

"Because there are no priests in our town, everyone endured it until the sun rose before they dared to choose a few strong young men to go to the cemetery to check the situation. Of course, as the mayor, I am a little older, but I also took the courage to go to the cemetery with these young people, and what I saw there—ah, I just arrived at the cemetery, rather than listening to the narration below, it is better for experienced adventurers to observe for themselves.”

has arrived?

Only then did he notice that the group of people had reached the end of the path unknowingly. Lu Xi looked up, and through the tall iron gate, he could vaguely see the tall and ancient tree in the center of the cemetery.

Under the shade of trees that almost covered the entire cemetery, everything inside the gate looked extremely gloomy.And this also made Lika hide behind Lu Xi more carefully.

"Because I was afraid that the existence in the cemetery would break through and cause chaos in the town, I had someone seal the entrance of the cemetery with a chain. I don't know if it was because of this, but the thing never left the cemetery. Pass."

While providing as much information as he could, the mayor took out the key from his pocket and opened the metal chain on the gate of the cemetery that was as thick as a forearm.

"Dang bang."

With a dull landing sound, the chain was completely opened by the mayor, and the gate of the cemetery, which seemed a bit gloomy because of the strange talk, was slowly opened to Lu Xi and the others.

"Because I know I can't help you much, so I won't go in."

Stretching out his hand as a gesture of invitation, the mayor finally said:

"All adventurers, please pay attention to your safety. If you need any help from Xia and the town, please try your best to speak to Xia."

"I wish you all the best, the peace of the town is up to you!"

--------------

The walls of the cemetery seem to completely separate the inside and outside of the garden into two worlds.I don't know if it's an illusion, but as soon as I stepped into the scope of the cemetery, the small but real noise in my ears suddenly returned to silence-to use a vivid way of saying, there is not even a little "popularity" here.

Lika, who felt particularly uneasy in this environment, raised her head tremblingly, trying to find a little sense of security from the sun in the sky.It's a pity that the crown of the towering tree in the center of the cemetery completely blocked the sunlight. Even if a few sporadic bunches squeezed in through the gaps between the leaves, they looked extremely strange because of the twisted and hideous shapes of the branches.

Look down to the ground.The tombstones that should have been neatly arranged fell to the ground as if they had been blown by a storm. A few of them fell so hard that they even fell into the soil upside down, and the names recorded on them could not be read clearly.

Coincidentally, there happened to be a sudden gust of wind blowing over, gently licking Celica's neck——

"Wow wow wow wow!!!!"

—— Celica, who was already highly nervous, couldn't bear this kind of stimulation. Before even a second, she plunged into Lu Xi's clothes on impulse, her body shaking vigorously.

What, isn't it cute when you're cowardly?

To be honest, Lu Xi was also a little nervous in the environment just now because he had watched many horror movies before time travel.However, after seeing Celica's standard cowardly appearance, he couldn't help laughing:

"I said Selika, are you too cowardly this time? Don't even look at who is in our team. This kind of supernatural mission is the best to do."

Except for him, the owner of the time-stop ability, one of the other two in the team is a natural saint, the ultimate nemesis of the undead system, Miss Saintess, and the other is a powerful undead summoning technique that can be unconsciously activated by pinching a doll, In front of these two, Alsace, who held the heroic spirit in his hands, probably only had the strength to crawl back into the well obediently.
