Oops, I became the witch's substitute

Chapter 124 Anyone Can Be Film

How to describe the current Kalan area? It can be said that here the weaklings are fighting each other, and over there the wild dogs are fighting each other. Anyway, in the end, it is the demons who are fighting each other.

In short, Kalan's area is such an environment. There are no deities, and all kinds of demons and monsters are showing their magical powers. It can be regarded as a true portrayal of this world.

In the past, there were two kinds of people in the world, oppressors and oppressed. In the world of swords and magic, there is one more kind, pure killers.

In order to create their own Kalan, the demons have tried every possible means, including suppression, assassination, massacre, and invasion. They are cruel and brutal to the royal family and use all kinds of tricks to deal with local lords. No matter whether the lords are strong and brave, or whether their moral character is noble or despicable, those who compromise with the demons are still black sheep. In some places, a compromise of "harmonious" coexistence between humans and demons has been created.

But more people still chose to resist, such as Guina, who might have already foreseen her own death, but she still persisted on the path of resistance and firmly believed in hope.

But Kuina didn't actually resist alone. She protected many survivors and even slaves during the confrontation. Fili was deeply worried when she learned about this.

On the other hand, Filin naturally had his own troubles. Besides the troubles, there were also unexpected events that disrupted his multi-threaded plans and confused his brain circuits.

Taking advantage of his free time, Film used the magic communication device to contact Carol. The magical water mirror opened and lit up. Film felt blinded, as if he was looking in a mirror, and there was also Film on the other side of the screen.

This scene stopped Feilin from saying what he was about to say: "What's going on with you now?"

"Carol" coughed twice. At first it was her natural voice, and then it was a fake voice, completely Filin's voice: "Aren't you going to be a stand-in? It's too troublesome to make a puppet. I thought about it and just used a disguise and pretended to be you."

Feilin was choked and couldn't utter a word for a long time.

No, what's the fuss? One world, one dream? Everyone likes to pretend, right?

As for Carol, Filin's strategy is to seduce her. Well, don't get me wrong, it's not the temptation of beauty, but the temptation of secrets. Various signs show that Carol likes to explore the secrets of people around her. This kind of exploration may make some people unhappy, but she only tries it superficially and has no malice, and she hides it very well. Filin knows it, but doesn't care.

Filin's overall strategy for her is that as long as there are enough blind cats, you will always catch a dead mouse.

Feilin asked knowingly: "Did anyone look for me when I was away?"

Carol answered bluntly, "Oh, a merchant sent you a letter from home. I accepted it for you. Remember to read it when you get back."

Accepted it? No, just take a look.

Philin didn't say it directly, but he hoped that an alchemist like Carol could intervene in his affairs. It didn't matter if he said he was using her. He hoped that Carol could help him more or less, no matter how much he had to pay her.

Anyway, after being freed from the family, Feilin just left. Who else could he be afraid of?

After finishing the small talk, Filin immediately got down to business, from the welcoming primeval forest of Kalan to the bustling town, from sheltering refugees to parasite treatment. Just when he got to this point, his head suddenly turned 90 degrees. This damn demon had caught up with him.

These demons really think of themselves as Karan's knife, and they can cook anyone they want.

Filin sensed it from two kilometers away, and when he got closer, Selena and Yue Lan both discovered it. This time Filin did not participate. Before the demon got close, Selena pulled the horse and turned around, charging in the opposite direction with determination and decisiveness. In less than ten minutes, she came out with some scratches on her armor and blood on the knight's spear. Oh, and she also seized a few swords.

No need to look, the demon chasing after you has become an experience baby.

After coming back, he said to Yue Lan something like "a demon who is not even as good as a rookie" and "a third-rate weakling" while hanging the captured sword on the horse.

"Solved?" Carol and Philin were still communicating on the other end of the communicator.

"It's easy. After all, there aren't any powerful people around here. Serena can go there alone." Filin said, and brought up the issue of support. "We need supplies. I don't trust the food safety in Kalan. Is there any way to get airdrops?"

"Miss Snow Girl and Nishinoka have gone to find the Frost Moon Dragon. If nothing goes wrong, we will have news in two days. Then we will let the dragon deliver the goods to you." Carol's tone was extremely certain and confident.

Many people may not believe it, but apart from the magic warship technology developed by the Great Empire, dragons are the best transportation in the world. Their flight is originally supported by magic, and their carrying capacity is not inferior to the large transport aircraft in the previous life. As long as there are good containers, they are the best couriers. Of course, they are limited to couriers.

There aren't many people on Filin's side, so the carrying capacity of one giant dragon is just enough.

"So what's the price?" Filin found himself liking this line very much.

Carol shrugged. "We can just get a few truckloads of gravel and refine it into gold. It's that simple."

Young dragons like cash (shiny objects like gems are enough as embellishments), old dragons like antiques, and the original celestial dragons like stories. I don’t know where they got this habit.

Now that the matter has been settled, Filin continues to operate on two fronts, letting Fili accompany Kuina to build trust first, and Filin accompanies Serena to fight against the demons.

To be honest, now that the dual-line operation is about to enter the two-year mark, Film has a strange illusion, as if "this is all me."

After clearing out the pursuing demons, people learned about the misfortune in the town. They felt fear, relief, horror and sadness. The team quickened their pace. When they arrived in the city, Filin was nervous. Since they had distributed the supplies to the refugees, their food reserves were almost gone. After arriving in the city, they found that the local lord was a hardliner who resisted the demons and was also reasonable.

After learning that Serena was a foreign rebel, they were very enthusiastic and temporarily arranged a base in the suburbs. They sent supplies and allowed the team to eat them after repeated inspections. As for the refugees, they were arranged to stay elsewhere and could not enter the city for the time being. After Filin told them about the parasites, the magicians in the city had to do a comprehensive inspection for them. Even after the inspection, they could only establish a base outside the city walls.

Selena was silent for a while when she heard this arrangement. Being outside the city wall meant that when this place was attacked, these refugees would still become victims, or even a buffer zone.

Here I would like to talk about the city structure. The most central part is the lord's castle, and surrounding the castle are circles of urban areas. Due to good management, the local lord built an inner city around the core urban area. Later, due to expansion, walls were built outside the second circle of the city. The refugees could only establish new settlements outside the second layer of walls. Perhaps in the future it could develop into the third urban area, but now it is war-torn Kalan, and its fate is uncertain.

Serena seemed to be talking to herself, and couldn't help asking Filin: "Isn't this the best we can do?"

Feilin spread his hands: "Aha, don't be so sentimental. Managing ten, a hundred, a thousand or even more people is a different art. You have allowed many strangers to live to the next stage. The mission has been accomplished. The next step is the focus."

Serena showed a grateful look: "You can also comfort people."

Feilin shook his head: "You are a bit of a perfectionist in your subconscious mind. You want everyone to be well fed and clothed and live a comfortable and peaceful life, just like you treat your own territory, but that is impossible. The problem in Kalan now is that the demons are rampant, not just the demons. Respected Commander Serena, what are you going to do next?"

Serena pondered for a moment and discussed her ideas with Filin. The two first went to local guilds and associations to conduct research, and then went to places like taverns to inquire about the news of the lord and the surrounding areas. Finally, they made a request to visit the lord.

Serena said righteously, "We heard that there are many towns occupied by demons and demon nests around here. Please mark these places on the map for us. We plan to clear them out one by one."

The lords were all surprised, then moved: "You...?"

For Kalan, whose country is in turmoil and the earth is in depression, the probability of meeting a righteous and militant strongman like Serena is about the same as the probability of a fisherman failing to catch any fish but a merman girl floating up and giving him a fish.

What is even more commendable is that even for the lords who are determined to resist to the end, most of the granaries are now so empty that the rats and cockroaches are starving to death. In addition to helping, Serena's troops actually brought their own dry food.

Soon, they also realized where Serena's confidence came from. They had only rested in the base for two days when a Frost Moon Dragon descended from the sky and brought a batch of supplies.

"You are such a good orderer, little child of dust, I will bring you everything you need"

Fili is familiar with the Frost Moon Dragon. He played with it when he was acting as Fili. Later, he came to help when Bahamut was in desperate battle. Although he was seriously injured, he fortunately survived and recovered. Now he comes to help again.

Although he said that Dust Child seemed to have no respect for humans, he had a good heart. He probably wanted to refuse, but Carol had refined too much gold.

3. Yiyi Yiyi III

Young dragons do not like large pieces of gold, but rather small pieces of gold, gold coins, or even gold sand, which are piled up into mountains for them to swim in.

Serena gained confidence: "Thank you for your help."

For others, the employer has a dragon in his network, which greatly boosts morale. For the local lord, the reinforcement has a dragon in his network. Is this still an ordinary reinforcement? This is a big shot!

People in the border areas don't have a clear understanding of the power system. In their worldview, it's difficult to distinguish between the strong. As long as Serena and others can keep fighting, they will feel relieved.

After delivering the supplies, Frost Moon Dragon flew away: "No need to thank me, I have already received my reward, and I also learned about Kalan's disaster. I will continue to help in the future. You little dust children must take care of your lives."

Now, people like Filin are busy in Kalan. Selena and Filin lead the team to rush towards the nearby demon stronghold. Fili and Guina began their days of searching for Scathach together, while Carol found something interesting.

Just as Filin expected, Carol had a slightly bad habit, which was that she couldn't help but explore other people's private lives. It wasn't that she was keen on gossip and took the initiative to find out Filin's secrets. She wouldn't do that normally, but Filin made her curious!

First of all, it was the blood. How could a normal family place such a heavy curse on a blood relative? Then it was the life of a spy named Filin. After disguising herself as Filin, she first contacted the merchant and put the letters sent to her in Filin's study. Then she was shocked by the piles of letters in the cabinet.

How many letters were there? Filin prepared envelopes, postmarks and even decorations for women in various styles, and it was obvious that they were forged letters.

It is not good to check other people's privacy.

Carol thought, at first in Filin's study, she thought, "I'll just take a look and not open the letters." But after looking for a long time and confirming that Filin was the spy, she began to think, "I'll just take a look and not look through the letters." After reading several nonsense witch letters, Carol finally couldn't help it and thought, "I'll just open it and take a look but not go in." As a result, after reading the rubbish articles that Filin reported to the family, Carol couldn't help but go into Filin's study and began to read those interesting letters.

With her experience of One Hundred Years of Solitude, she has seen all kinds of storms, but she has never seen such an interesting soul as Filin. She is shocked to find that there is a huge and dense intelligence network in the entire Miriam area. From bribed witch nobles to mercenary vendors, these people continuously provide intelligence to the Morganna family, and then these people are all "ghosts", all of them are Filin.

"What a talent." Carol was lying on Filin's chair. She had only seen such a person in her life and was afraid that she would never meet another one. "He has worked hard to survive. It's a pity that I don't know much about the Morgana family, but..."

Although they are both fathers, the ways they treat their children are so different.

Thinking of this, Carol walked to Filin's closet, opened it, and found that what she was looking for was not there, but she still had a trace of doubt.

"The curse is clearly firmly in the hands of the family, but he is willing to do this for Fili. It's too strange. Is this the power of love?" If it was love, Carol recalled their daily life. Fili and Fili didn't flirt with each other and the atmosphere was normal.

You have to know that in a hotel like this, there is only one male, Feilin, and the rest are girls with whom they have good relationships. Once any signs of love are discovered, the relationship network in this hotel will be alienated at best, and will even directly break up at worst. This is no joke.

In Carol's eyes, Philin theoretically had the best relationship with Philly, followed by the others. No matter who he had a romantic relationship with, the atmosphere would become awkward, but that didn't happen.

"The room is clean and tidy, and there are no signs of homosexuality. Is it because of too much work pressure?" Carol secretly checked it out, and suddenly she felt guilty. Morally, she was condemning her for doing this, but the more she thought about it, the more she wanted to understand Filin. "He went against his family to protect Fili and the witch. Who would believe that it's not love? But it's not love? Is he a saint? He doesn't seem to be without desires. He was obviously very ordinary when he was joking with me."

After thinking a lot, Carol put away her curiosity and wanted to stay in this hotel for a few more years.

Originally her life was like a tumbleweed, being blown to a different place every few years, but this time she felt she had found a place where she could stay for a long time.

"There is one more thing. Why are Felix and Fili..." Carol took out the crystal that Felix used to input magic when she used the phonograph from her pocket. "If you consider nullification as a kind of ability, why are you two so similar? Felix is ​​gentle to everyone, which is the nature of a spy, and Fili is gentle to everyone. It's just like... a person thinks that witches should be like this or that, like a beautiful story like a fairy tale. What is the connection between you two?"

Chapter 125 Why is Fili beautiful?

The rear of Kalan has become the demon base camp. A steady stream of monsters are produced here, and human corpses are sewn into monsters and transported to the front line. There is no human resistance near the royal city, only slaves who are in danger of losing their lives every day.

The demons didn't kill all these humans not out of kindness, but because they treated them as livestock and hostages. The bad apples who cooperated with the demons were just convenient tools, just like simulating the calls of animals to lure the same species when hunting.

It was in such an environment that Kuina destroyed the demons' factories and nests, built safe bases everywhere, and provided the only food. He was regarded as a savior by the locals.

Guinai was familiar with the terrain here, and quickly led Fili to the vicinity of Scathach: "This is the hatching nest of the crooked dragon. Could the person you are looking for be nearby?"

Fili frowned slightly: "From the perspective of sensing, it's very close. She is mixed in."

Kuina checked his weapons and equipment, ready to fight: "Then rescue her."

Fili held down Kuina's hand and said, "Don't bother. Let's check the guards around here, and then look at me."

Kuina nodded. Both of them were heroes and currently didn't know each other. This battle was a good opportunity for them to get to know each other.

Kuina's strength was forced out of her, her inner world was not as strong as imagined. Being called a savior by humans in such a situation, she had no sense of the reality of this identity, only loneliness. Her best friend was organizing an army far away, and Kuina felt a little relieved every day when she saw the sunrise - she had survived another day.

Outsiders simply could not imagine Kuina's helplessness. She did achieve results, and delayed the demons' plan a lot with her own strength, but her current situation was also extremely difficult. The demons had already set their sights on her and continued their guerrilla warfare, like the captain of the Eagle Corps. Guts was chased by demons and had no peace. He chose to retreat, as if stroking a wedding ring, and Hubie looked at Jibril in despair and tears.

In such an environment, Fili appeared. The stranger was indeed suspicious, but Fili's appearance was stepping on the corpse of the great treacherous demon tribe, which made Kuina have some good feelings for her. Hearing that Fili was here to save her companions, Kuina immediately chose to help. In a sense, Fili and her had the same strength, and the appearance of such a person was equivalent to filling the void in her heart.

Equally capable, equally responsible, and equally beautiful.

The two found the guards in the secret place one by one. Kuina made a gesture of wiping his neck and said, "Assassinate them one by one?"

Fili shook her head: "Let's just forget about it?"

Kuina was puzzled: "Why aren't you sure either."

Fili walked out from behind the shelter, took a deep breath, and looked at the filthy, twisted nest in front of her.

"Na nepo dor~Neath gatyunla~ (In the dry earth, in the burning hell~?), Colga roon irs sor~ (There is an ice castle~?)."

The Hymn of the Water Spirit.

The initial singing stirred up waves, and then Fili sang loudly. First, cold air rolled in from all directions, and then the sky shone with colorful light, and any flying creatures were wrapped in bubbles.

As the singing continued, a huge wave fell from the sky and hit the earth. The horrible vibration also brought a freezing air current. As soon as the waterfall fell, the earth was completely frozen, and the dragon beasts falling from the sky were frozen into ice lumps one by one.

But Scathach was very strong. This powerless little girl usually had no abilities, but now the results of her training were showing. She actually stood up under the attack of the holy chant, tore the blisters and escaped.

Fili stamped her feet in anger: "That's the one who ran away!"

Kuina: “?”

First of all, Kuina didn't understand what this was like, and secondly, was Fili here to save people or kill people? Once Yingjie's perception was released, he knew that the nest was destroyed. No one from the guards to the monsters around could survive. Not only were the two of them safe, they also had plenty of time to leave. By the time the nearby demons arrived after sensing the fluctuations in magic power, the two had already fled.

The two then continued to chase Scathach, attacking one demon stronghold after another.

What were the demons doing during this time? They did nothing, because the boss of this place, Anastasia, had just breathed in the ICU. These demons not only hated humans, but also had a more bloody personality, but they were not wrong in one thing: they were not afraid of death, but they would cherish life.

But in fact, due to their fearlessness, they often cannot save their lives when they really get into trouble.

Anastasia sat in a wheelchair and said to her companions, "I admit that I suffered a huge failure in Miriam, but the plan to abduct the dragon marrow was at least half successful."

The demon who looked like a magician, her name was Milito, she was the culprit who saved Anastasia: "Where is the other half?"

Anastasia closed her eyes and seemed to sense something: "It's flying around in Kalan."

The other demons were not going to do this anymore. They were also pressed for time. If they didn't quickly bring out the Distorted Dragon, without the fighting power of a deity, wouldn't they all be shot to death when a deity really came?

Everyone was discussing that the demons, in conjunction with some demon tribes, had been carrying out a relentless campaign of human extermination in Kalan. At least all humans had been killed in the areas ruled by the demons. Some demon tribes had taken the initiative to keep humans in captivity and play political games, but they were powerless to do anything about it.

Milito could also sense Scathach's position, but it was very vague: "This is more difficult than before. With your strength, why are you surrounded by heroes? It's okay to be seriously injured, but kidnapping a powerless dragon marrow in the encirclement shouldn't be a problem, right?"

In fact, Anastasia did not tell her companions the details of what happened that day. Firstly, she was afraid that her teammates would know that she had provoked the goddess and they would be scared to scatter. Secondly, her statement that she had escaped from a group of heroes was more convincing. As for why the kidnapping failed?

Anastasia's face was calm. "Those people also discovered the value of the dragon marrow and kept her under strict surveillance. I have already done my best to bring her out."

Milito took her words seriously, because without some ability he wouldn't be able to track them in the opposite direction.

Look at the bright side, at least the dragon marrow has arrived in the territory, and we just need to put in some effort to catch it.

But what they didn't know was that Scathach and Dragonstone were now separated.

After confirming the strategy, Anastasia immediately asked half of the people to stop what they were doing and go look for dragon marrow. They were determined to catch the duck that had flown away and cook it.

But Fili's behavior of looking for Scathach made things complicated. I don't know if Scathach has become rebellious now. When she was a human, sisters were dear to her and sisters were good. Sisters were born treasures. After becoming a dragon, who am I? I am a dragon and the ends of the earth are my home. In short, wherever Fili chases her, Scathach will run desperately.

It would have been fine if she just ran away, the demons were horrified to find that the destructive power of the human resistance fighter, the "savior" Miss Kuina, was also increasing exponentially. In the past, she only attacked their supply lines in a petty manner, hindering the supply of troops to the front line, but recently she started to spin forward three and a half times, then did an Armskron back jump, and finally performed a paradise show for them, poking wherever she went, killing all the nests, arsenals, and garrisons.
