Who hid my body?

"Then there can only be one city, Lyra, in this world." The knight shrugged and said with a smile.

Since horse-drawn carriages were not allowed to enter the city, the "Skeleton" troops sent people in advance to pick up the horses and take them to a special breeding place outside the city.

It was obvious that they had a good relationship, so much so that they started chatting enthusiastically as soon as they met, laughing and joking with each other.

Until someone asked, "Kude, how did you complete your mission?"

Before Kud could answer, a creaking sound of metal friction came from behind him, as if it was an ancient machine that had long been out of date and covered with rust, but was still running.

The originally lively team suddenly became quiet.

They turned their heads at the same time and stared blankly at the thick and familiar figure walking from the back of the team.

It was Gerard.

He was still carrying the huge chainsaw sword on his back, with no expression on his face. As he walked, his half mechanical leg kept making the "creaking" sound mentioned earlier.

He stopped a few meters away from Kude, glanced at Kude, and asked, "Can we disband now?"

Coode nodded.

So Gerard continued to move forward and walked straight into the city without saying a word to the other members of the "Skeleton" army.

After Gerard's figure completely disappeared from everyone's sight, Kud turned to look at the knight who had just asked him whether the mission was successful, and said, "If it was a mission to the Rhine, then it was indeed successful."

The knight was slightly stunned, then shrugged: "Haha, you have a sense of humor."

The two captains broke the silence, and the originally quiet team immediately became noisy again, but the topic turned to Gerard.

"Is he that difficult?"

“It’s really difficult.”

"Tsk, so why doesn't he just die?" A knight whispered, "Why would he want to live after doing something like that?"

"Does he think he is still the Knight of Evening Star he once was?"

……

"It seems that you don't have a very good reputation among your colleagues." Bai Wei's teasing voice rang in Gerald's mind, "They don't want you to resign, they want you to die."

Gerard said nothing, but walked silently on the streets of Lyra.

Bai Wei didn't care. After a few days of rest, he had fully recovered and was looking at his favorite city in the game with great interest.

If the Rhine is still the most traditional sword and magic, the style of Lyra is more medieval, and it is a steampunk version of the Middle Ages. There are gear cars throughout the city, mechanical props that complement magic, and even most of the residents have prosthetic limbs. Their prosthetic limbs look brand new and exquisite, which are more advanced than the mechanical leg on Gerard's leg that needs to be oiled after walking for a long time, otherwise it will make a constant "squeaking" sound.

After entering the city, Gerard did not wander around, but walked to the nearest gear train station, bought a ticket, and got on the gear train.

Then he found a seat in the corner and sat down.

This is the initial platform closest to the edge of the city. Since the residents of Tianqin seldom leave the city, there are few people at the initial platform. But as the gear car started and gradually went deeper into this special metal city, more and more people got on the car.

Tianqin is the largest and most populous city in the world.

Because the entire Lyra Church only has this one city, and all the Lyra believers live in this city.

The people on the gear car were chatting enthusiastically.

"Wow, is this your new prosthetic hand? That's pretty impressive."

"Yeah, the latest one came out last month."

"That's great. I want to get a new one too."

"Didn't you change that half a year ago?"

"Isn't that an old thing?"

The people who were chatting hardly noticed Gerard in the corner. Occasionally, those who noticed him couldn't help but frown when they found the rusty metal parts on Gerard's body, as if they saw something disgusting, and they all kept a certain distance from him.

Bai Wei was very satisfied with this, because it allowed him to better see the Tower of Babel outside the gear car.

There are countless energy ropes connected to the Tower of Babel. These energy ropes spread to every corner of the city like spider webs, providing special energy for the city.

This is also the most direct reason why Tianqin seems so developed, but can only maintain its power in this city.

Everything they do revolves around that tower.

That is the heart of this city and also the belief of this city.

Bai Wei stared at the tall tower, his star-like pupils moving slightly, and a picture different from reality came into his eyes.

He saw the tower burning under the dim sky, and the fire seemed to set the world on fire.

"interesting."

Bai Wei said with a chuckle.

"Ding".

Three hours later, the gear train stopped at the terminal. At this moment, there were no other passengers in the carriage except Gerard.

Gerald stood up and got out of the car.

He came to the edge of the city again.

The scenery here is completely different. There are no dazzling array of mechanical equipment, no residents talking loudly about prosthetics, but only a muddy path that seems to lead to the end of the world.

This huge contrast is like changing the map.

But Bai Wei knew that this was also a part of Tianqin.

Gerard stepped onto the path and walked for about twenty minutes before standing in front of a simple house.

There is only one house here, and it is also his home.

Gerard took out his key and opened the door.

The key stopped halfway through turning.

For water splashed on the hands, and water came up from the house.

Gerard raised his head and looked at the humanoid monster lying on the eaves, which looked like it was made of mud.

It had no eyes or nose, only a mouth. At this moment, it was opening its huge mud mouth towards Gerard, and liquid, whether blood or water, was dripping from its mouth.

Bai Wei asked: "Your friend?"

Jellal drew the chainsword behind him.

(End of this chapter)

Chapter 74: Five is really useful?!

"pat".

The swamp-like creature fell from the roof, making a sound like a piece of fat being slapped on a chopping board.

Before that, Jellal had already taken a step back to a safe position with the chainsword in his hand.

Bai Wei was also observing this monster.

He was not unfamiliar with this monster, and could even say he was quite familiar with it. It was also a special product of the Lyra map, the "pollutant" that Gerald had been talking about before, a monster that lived in the "polluted land" bordering Lyra. Its characteristic was that it looked like a pool of mud, and was also called a mud monster by players.

It's not that powerful, but it's quite difficult to deal with. Because its shape is not fixed, and it has a strong ability to recover. If you can't cause irreparable damage to it in an instant, it will reorganize repeatedly, sticking to you like a puddle of mud.

Until, you become a part of them.

For example, now, it is raising its head and constantly making meaningless "gurgling" roars at Jellal, ready to rush up at any time.

If it was Uru at the beginning, he would definitely not be able to deal with this kind of guy, so Bai Wei could come out at the right time to let Uru use his power. But Jellal, the "Knight of the Evening Star", definitely doesn't have to worry about these. Jellal killed countless of these pollutants, so Bai Wei just had to watch for the time being.

But there was one point that made Bai Wei feel a little concerned.

Shouldn't this thing stay in a polluted area? Why did it end up in a place like this?

"Grrrrrr!"

The pollution rushed towards Jellal.

Jellal swung the huge chainsaw sword with one hand, drawing a sharp arc in the air. Before the pollution could pounce on his body, he slashed into the neck of the pollution. The powerful force directly pushed the sword down one third.

If it were an ordinary person, he would have died on the spot after being attacked like this, but the pollutant would not die. It just staggered and its entire body was crushed down, but it was still alive and well.

Gerard continued to exert force, as if trying to crush the pollutant directly.

The pollutant used its limbs to support itself on the ground to resist Jellal's strength. At the same time, its body kept shaking. Soon, more limbs grew out of its muddy body, which climbed up the chainsaw sword one by one, and then spread along the sword body towards Jellal.

Jellal remained indifferent to this. He just watched coldly as the pollutant turned that small half of the body into limbs and wrapped the entire blade of the chainsaw sword. At the same time, a mud claw stretched out towards Jellal's sword-holding hand. Only then did he finally react.

He turned the hilt of his sword.

The chainsaw sword wrapped in the polluted body made a teeth-grinding "buzzing" sound.

The mud claws that were about to touch Jellal stopped spreading instantly, and then began to tremble violently.

The next second, the pollutants covering the parts of the chainsaw sword suddenly exploded, and the sharp chainsaws on the sword, like fangs, were spinning at high speed, quickly sawing the bodies that tried to stop it into pieces of flesh.

The small half of the pollutant's body was strangled in an instant and turned into drops of mud and water in the exhaust gas emitted by the chainsaw sword.

Jellal also exerted force at this time, and the chainsaw sword that was originally only stuck a few centimeters below the neck of the pollutant was able to continue moving downward at this moment, as if it wanted to cut the pollutant into two pieces.

The pollutant noticed this, but its intelligence was obviously not enough to support it to come up with a solution. It just kept growing more limbs, stretching towards the running chainsaw sword, and then being quickly chopped into pieces.

It could only make sounds that were completely different from before, as if it was screaming in pain, or begging for mercy.

But no matter how it struggled, Gerard did not stop his actions. The melting pollutants were reflected in his cold eyes.

It looked like the battle was about to end.

However, just when the chainsaw sword had already crushed half of the pollutant's body,

There was a "click" sound.

The chainsaw slowly stopped turning, and the sword was suddenly stuck in the body of the pollutant.

This sudden situation made Bai Wei slightly stunned.

How is this going?

Bai Wei looked at the chainsaw sword that had stopped working.

...The power is out?

Even the pollutant that had been "roaring" as if crying out in pain just now became dazed for a moment.

It raised its head and "looked" at Gerard with its eyeless face.

But Gerard's expression did not change much. He just frowned slightly, then stretched out his other hand and aimed at the hilt of the sword.

Took the photo.

"Bah bang bang."

While clapping, his other hand was gently shaking the sword.

This sense of déjà vu... is just like when the TV screen turned white a long time ago, and the old man in the family walked up to the TV and slammed it twice, then waved the antenna behind the TV around.

As if this would help.

This operation lasted for about twenty seconds, and the chainsaw sword still did not react, but the pollutant had reacted.

The half of its body that was left immediately surged, and in a short period of time it grew more limbs, climbing towards the chainsaw sword again, and then it evolved into one mud claw after another and grabbed towards Jellal.

But Jellal did not react much. He was still patting the hilt of the chainsword very seriously, and at the same time gently shaking the blade to shake off the exhaust gas stuck in it.

Then those mud claws stretched out in front of Jellal, as if they were going to pull him into the abyss in the next second.

Then there was a "click" sound.

Jellal reacted with one last slap.

The next second, the chainsaw sword made a roar several times louder than before, and the rusty chainsaw began to rotate at a higher frequency.

Bai Wei was shocked.

Is it really fucking useful?

The chainsword was like a roaring lion awakening from a deep sleep.

The mud claws that were stretched out towards Jellal were cut off in an instant. At the same time, the sword seemed to have lost its last bit of resistance, and it roared and slashed down without Jellal even having to exert any strength.

The final body of the pollutant was split into two like a block of tofu. The powerful inertia did not even allow the chainsaw sword to stop the "cutting" action in the first place, and it smashed into the ground, creating a huge hole.

The body of the pollutant that surged into the air was strangled by the upper half of the chainsaw of the chainsaw sword before it could land on the ground.
