Chapter 23 Who is the monster?
With his palm resting on the trunk, Donald was not concerned about the cold bark. At this time, his eyes were all focused on the clearings in the front.
I thought it was a matter of fighting for power and profit in a village. To put it bluntly, it was the internal contradictions of mankind. It was nothing more than you lie to me and I lie to you. And it was limited to such a small place, so it would not cause any bad influence.
The appearance of this monster was unexpected.
When Donald was in Demingham, he looked through some monster illustrations because he was going to sea, but he had no impression of this monster.
The statue of the god in Claremont's hand, or the colorful light emitted by the wooden sculptures that the villagers prayed in the church, was clearly heard Claremont say it was the energy of faith.
What is the energy of faith?
Donald didn't understand, but as the name suggests, it should be a certain will or willpower placed on the wood carving by the people when praying in the church. Seeing Claremont cherished it so much and took it out as a trading item, it should be a good thing.
Now the monster slapped it directly to the ground with its wings and slashed it with one claw.
Obviously the transaction failed.
Judging from Claremont's words, the forest where the village is located seems to be the territory of the monster in front of him. It seems to be intent on cleaning up the villagers. Claremont exchanged wood carvings with the energy of faith to exchange for the monster's failure to attack the villagers. The rules in previous years have been like this.
"Donald, do you want help?"
Judging from the current situation, the deal between Clemons and this monster broke down and the battle was almost inevitable, so Anthony turned his head and asked Donald about his thoughts.
"Wait a minute."
Donald is not sure what the situation is now, so he can only choose to continue waiting and watching.
"I have brought the statue of God as agreed. What do you mean?"
Claremont seemed to be a little confused, so he asked directly.
"Ga!Ga!Ga..."
The monster's howling began to become rapid, and he kept pushing towards Claremont.
"You want to sacrifice flesh and blood? Impossible! This matter has no discussion. I have given you all the power of faith from the villagers. It is the biggest concession. Do you want to tear down the contract between us?"
Claremont should have had some kind of communication with this monster on the level of consciousness. Just like between Donald and Lilo, when he heard the monster's request, his tone became extremely tough.
The monster's patience was finally lost under Claremont's tough rejection. He no longer tried to communicate, but instead waved his wings and rushed towards Claremont's position, and a black whirlwind formed out of thin air.
"I didn't kill you before because of my lack of strength. I have been enduring the fact that you cursed the village. Now that you tore up the contract, even for the village, I will try to defeat you...Shield!"
Claremont raised his hand and shouted softly. An energy shield immediately appeared in front of him, forcibly blocking the black whirlwind.
"Strange, how did this come about."
Standing behind the tree, Donald observed the composition of those energy in a state of spiritual vision. As a wizard, he did not feel the fluctuations in his mental power.
You should know that whether it is a pure spiritual alien or a wizard, they need to rely on mental power to control their energy, but when Claremont uses these energy, Donald did not notice it at all.
A syllable causes the automatic gathering of energy?
"Lock!"
It was a simple word again, and the monster immediately felt like there were invisible chains tangled up. Claremont's fighting style was very similar to that of the wizard, but the use of energy seemed very shallow to Donald, and he only knew that the simple changes were caused by some combat equipment.
"He can't win that monster. It's impossible to kill monsters of this level with this kind of energy!"
Anthony has extremely rich combat experience. Although he cannot understand the running state of energy, he can see that Claremont will not use his abilities at all.
After careful consideration, this is also an extremely normal thing.
According to Claremont, before coming to this village, he was always trafficking everywhere. After coming to the village, he spent almost all his energy on helping the villagers. What usually caused him headaches was the daily affairs in the village. How could he have time to run out to practice combat?
To take a step back, at his age, even if he wants to practice, he is probably powerless.
As if to verify Anthony's judgment, the monster should have been angered by Claremont's two resistances, flapping its wings and floating in the air in the forest. The rich negative energy immediately wrapped it all over, and the purple light bloomed, illuminating the nearby area.
"You...how do you have such powerful energy!"
Claremont had never seen such a scene. I don’t know if it was because of my old age and weak body. I took a few steps back and fell to the ground, looking at the monster in front of me in despair.
"Ga~"
The monster's figure that rushed out of the negative energy seemed to have increased again. Looking at the humans on the ground, they swooped down without hesitation.
Double casting thunder!
Two lightning lights fell from the night sky and hit the monster's back. The black feathers fell down in its rapid flapping wings.
The sudden attack aroused the monster's ferocity and rushed towards the location where Donald was.
There are two figures that are no slower than it!
Anthony jumped among the branches, his speed soared again and again. Lilo even held the Holy Light weapon and headed straight for the monster.
Energy control·No air!
Since it was a siege and killing battle, Donald naturally would not give the monster a chance to take off and escape. He directly activated his talent. An area ahead formed a force field network, which tried his best to suppress the monster's flight speed.
Even the blood bat incarnation of the blood bat can be suppressed by the improved version of the forbidden air spell against this monster whose momentum is obviously not as powerful as the blood Count, the effect will naturally be immediate.
"Okay, do it!"
The force field network was superimposed on the monster, and although it could not be directly suppressed to the ground, it also consumed a lot of energy by just supporting flight, and its speed was reduced again and again.
Anthony and Lilo took this opportunity and flashed around the monster. Every time they approached, they would leave scars on the monster's body, and they would make it scarred in a short while.
Claremont on the open space looked at the scene in front of him that was completely unilaterally crushed, and the surprise in his eyes could not be concealed.
He didn't expect these people to be so strong.
The monster did not persist for too long under the siege of Donald and others. Within ten minutes, the battle ended successfully and no one was injured or killed.
Anthony and Lilo looked at the monster's corpse, while Donald walked straight to Claremont.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Claremont had such an old friend in this deep mountain. Even if he didn't participate in the winter festival, he would come to see it...Isn't you going to explain?"
Donald stood in front of Claremont, because Claremont was sitting on the ground, now it looked like Donald was watching him condescendingly.
"I didn't expect you to find out... Do you still remember the stories I told to you in the afternoon?"
Claremont stood up from the ground with a helpless look on his face, slapped his sleeves and said.
"Our memory is not that bad. Did you tell the truth at that time?"
He glanced at the ground without a trace and took a step back, Donald asked.
"No, you misunderstood. I'm telling the truth, but there was a shortage before. That was, the village would become that miserable appearance was not entirely because of their farming methods, hunting and skills. The main reason was that this monster used curses to reduce the harvest of the fields in the village and allowed the creatures in the mountains to continuously migrate to other mountains, which caused the village's dilemma, in order to drive everyone away... At that time, I didn't have the ability to defeat it, so I thought of making a deal with it, thinking of waiting for my strength to solve it. Now it seems that it's still far away... Thanks to a few people this time, after I go back, I will definitely prepare the right reward for you!"
These words were extremely sincere, and there was no loophole in the words.
"So that's the case. Lord Claremont really sacrificed too much for this village."
"This is just accusation I deserve as a great sage."
"It is this sense of responsibility that is the most admirable... I'll go see the monster, and then we'll go back?"
"You don't have to care about me, I'll just go back by myself."
"Hey~ You are here to wait for me for a while, very soon."
Donald turned around and walked towards the monster corpse in the open space, but his empty right hand reached to the bone spirit plate on his waist at this moment.
"Eat him for me!"
The moment the order was issued, somewhere in the woodland was filled with majestic negative energy, and three bones poked out from the rolling black fog, targeting one person.
