Is this really just an RPG? !
Chapter 4 The Heartbeat Adventure of the Brave (2)
It was the first time I heard the name Macmillan.
Qiuqiu is not around, so I can't ask her to help me find McMillan's specific introduction from the endless library. Fortunately, Emily has a little experience with various demons. At least she can tell me why McMillan is called a death demon. But before telling the story, she first talked to me about the concept of "devil".
"There is an essential difference between demons and demons."
"Eh……"
"To sum it up in one sentence, 'Demons are hard to kill, and demons are impossible to kill', that's it!"
"Ehhh?"
What Emily said overwhelmed me.
There should be no difference between the two sentences, right? Although I feel that the pronunciation of the former sentence is slightly different from the latter sentence, maybe it is because the two words "devil" and "demon" are different? Well, demons and demons, demons and demons, demons and demons, demons, demons, demons... It really is a mouthful!
"What are you thinking?"
"Eh!"
"You can see too much just from your dull face. You probably didn't understand what I just said?"
"Eh?"
"How do you find out? Your lingua franca and magic script are very poor, brave man. Anyone who knows you knows this kind of thing, right? Besides, I said the sentence just now in magic script. I guess you can only hear it." The two words "mozu" and "demon"... No, according to your language level, you may not be able to hear them, they are just a simple guess."
"Eh……"
Do you need to say that about me?
More importantly, how did Emily manage to talk to me without hindrance, even though I only uttered a single syllable from beginning to end. Just look at the expression? It should not be that simple, I admit that I am prone to emotional changes, so the subtle changes on my face will tell others what I am thinking very straightforwardly.
That's not enough for Emily to guess so accurately.
Perhaps, this senior of mine has a special ability that I don't know about!
...
Well, I shouldn't have thought about such unrealistic things.
If Emily really has that special ability, there is no need to hide here to clear her mind and organize clues.
"Can you say it again?"
"Of course you can, but I think you won't be able to understand if I say it again...Listen up! 'Demons are hard to kill, but demons can't be killed', do you understand this time?"
"Hard to kill and unkillable?"
"That's right! That's it."
Emily nodded vigorously and snapped her fingers.
After a brief silence, she began to explain the difference between the two to me.
"The regeneration power of demon owners is beyond imagination, such as zombies, skeletons, vampires, slimes, werewolves, etc., as long as they are not fatally injured, they will not die, so the demons are difficult to kill, deal with them There must be targeted measures... But the group of demons are not bad in general, right? Their long lives make them offline one by one, and they are more concerned about how to create incidents that endanger the world. Happy to find all kinds of fun."
"Ah, yes."
Thinking about it carefully, on the way to find Lilith, I encountered many demons, almost all of them were in this situation.
"But demons are different. The souls of demons are stored in the demon world. Even if the descending body dies, it will only take some time to recover. Therefore, demons cannot be killed."
"So this is ah."
I subconsciously looked at the magic circle in the middle of the room.
In other words, this is a magic circle used to summon someone who is almost unkillable? Those treasures are just a disguise for storing the sealed parts, so they use fake gold coins and fake jewelry. After all, the real sealed parts are mixed in, so you can't detect it at all... Wait, if these boxes were robbed, right? Means, someone did this on purpose?
"Sister, do you think these things were stolen?"
"It's very likely."
Emily agrees with me.
If we speculate here, we can almost draw a rough and terrible conclusion: the person who tried to revive the devil has something to do with the spellcaster in this bandit group. The robbers here will definitely not let this business go.
After robbing the things, as long as some spellcasters propose to "build a hidden room to ensure safety", the place in front of you can be created. As for the magic circle, you can use "warning magic circle to protect the treasure from being stolen" To cover up the reasons for leaving, the hallucinogenic drugs distributed in the bandit group are to get more dead, so that the magic circle can be successfully activated, and the seal of the death demon Macmillan will be released, and he will come here in his body.
Everything can be explained.
So, who is Death Demon McMillan?
"A demon that was beaten up badly before the destruction of the century? I don't remember clearly. After all, the previous brave man beat up more things than you know. Regardless of how famous it is, it is actually that Otherwise, it wouldn't have fallen into such a miserable situation."
"..."
Quite miserable.
It was pulled out from the demon world together with the main body, then cut into several parts and sealed.
If it weren't for the fact that the soul was still in the demon world and there was no way to kill it completely, probably this demon with a powerful title would not even have a chance to be unsealed. [Appraisal] Not only confirms the names and functions of the sealed parts, but also tells me how many points the demon is divided into.
In addition to the [sealed right hand of the death demon McMillan] in front of me, there are several parts such as the right hand, left leg, right leg, body, head and horns. The horn part has most of the power of the demon. All that remains is to provide him with a body that can move in the real world.
In theory, as long as the horn is destroyed, this is basically a useless demon.
But the hardness of the devil's horns is beyond imagination, and there is no targeted thing that can't do this kind of thing at all.
It may be that the person who sealed Macmillan couldn't find a suitable prop, so he just sealed it without doing too much processing. In terms of the fighting power of all creatures on Lindsay Continent before the destruction of the century, even if such a half-dead demon wakes up, it won't make a difference.
But not now.
Now is the age of peace after the century of destruction.
The root cause of such peace is that the high-end combat power of each race was lost in the mighty.
Even if you want to do something, there is no manpower.
"Is there a way to prevent the other party from cracking Macmillan's seal?"
I try to ask Emily.
It's just that I didn't have high expectations.
"No, there is really no good way, brave man, can you try to take the parts away?"
"It can't be put in the backpack. Unfortunately, there is a conflict between some force and space energy. If I force it in, the result will definitely be that the contents of my backpack will be blown up, and then these parts will be fine."
"What a hassle."
Emily couldn't help kicking the ground a few times.
Even if the magic circle is destroyed, those casters can redraw it, even more cautiously than this time. If the parts cannot be put in the backpack, there is no way to take them away from here, because most of the barriers at the door will have a detection effect, making sure that these parts will not be taken away by anyone.
No matter how you look at it, it is impossible to deal with a bandit group with several spellcasters with the strength of two people.
"Let's go out first?"
"Let's go out first."
I agreed with Emily's proposal.
The two walked up the stairs slowly, using [Recognition Magic] to temporarily obtain the right to pass through the barrier, and then left this dark and uncomfortable room. When I came into the tunnel, I looked at the ceiling and exhaled heavily, and then immediately checked the surrounding situation.
There are no bandits on patrol.
【Invisibility】The effect is still there, and there is still a period of time before it will be released naturally.
[Sound Blocking] The effect is still there, and the lasting effect of this magic will be longer, don't worry.
Emily is in good spirits, and there is no problem in continuing to maintain the magic needed for infiltration.
The familiar black clothing should be a nun's costume. I don't know what this person thinks. He would choose to wear a nun's costume to walk in, but since the other party sneaked in, theoretically, he is not our enemy... Eh? Wait, wait, wait! In a nun's attire? Look familiar? Infiltrated too?
"Brave, your reaction speed is really slow."
"I, I, I, I..."
"Who's there?"
The girl's voice was very familiar, as if she had heard it not long ago.
When I was still wondering who the other party was, Emily lifted the [Invisibility].
"Sen, long time no see."
"Emily? And the brave?"
"Eh……"
In front of me and Emily is the war nun Sen who once fought with us against the Lord of Fire, Melville.
I don't know why she came here too.
"Why are you here?"
"I just wanted to ask, why did Ms. Sen come here? Emily and I just came to investigate this bandit group because of certain incidents..."
"It's because I sensed a devil's breath here, um, Mr. Brave, you have it on your body, or on your right hand, have you touched anything?"
Sen said so.
Although the hood hid her face, I could feel her gaze resting on my right hand.
Just like she said.
When I cast [Identification], I used this hand to hold the demon's parts.
It is not surprising that there will be a devil's breath.
"It's a bit complicated to explain in detail... Forget it, Emily, can I use [Recognition Magic] to open the barrier again?"
"No problem, you two keep up."
Emily and I, who had just come out, entered that dark room again because of Sen's arrival.
However, since Miss Nun came back.
Then the troublesome demon should have a way to deal with it!
# It would be great if it went so smoothly #
I thought this way, and the last one entered the barrier.
...
Eh?
"Mr. Brave?"
"No, it should be my illusion."
[Invisibility] Although it was withdrawn by Emily, she immediately applied it to the three of us again.
Such a short time should not be noticed, right!
Events always go in a direction I didn't expect.
Whether it is being arrested for a strange crime, encountering a robber on the road, or discovering a ritual to awaken the devil in the robber's lair, it can be said that it is a small probability event. But that's it, I was able to mention it one after another. No wonder some people complain that there is not much difference between Lucky E and Lucky EX, the difference is only an X.
The one with X encounters all good things.
The one without X encounters bad things.
I've started to get used to it, anyway, every time I don't toss something big, it's not convenient to count it as the end. I guess it's about the same this time? Originally, it was just Emily and I performing infiltration missions in the bandit base, trying to obtain information about the lost crown of the princess of the Principality of Atuqiu through the mouths of those guys, but I didn't expect to encounter even more terrifying things .
Someone is distributing hallucinogenic drugs infused with death magic and transformation magic in a lawless area.
He tried to transform the people here into the dead, and then sacrificed them to McMillan, the devil of death, so that the devil who was best at spreading death would come to this world in his own body. Although it can't destroy the entire Lindsay Continent, at least it can completely turn Iceland into a death zone.
The human army can defeat the devil, but there is no way to immediately defeat the various diseases brought by the devil.
So, the nun Sen, who sensed a demonic aura, came here.
She intends to completely destroy the ritual before the demon is summoned, or deal with the demon king who has just awakened and has not fully recovered his strength, and seal it up again. Being able to meet Sen can be said to barely solve the current problem, but it seems that because of Sen, this problem is growing at a rate of several times?
"Since there are brave men, mages and nuns, why don't we just make this devil king!"
The nun made this decision in the tone of "just eat fruit tonight".
"Okay, okay! Anyway, we have output, nurses, control and meat shields."
The most terrifying thing is that Emily completely agrees with the other party's point of view.
These two people have exactly the same style of action in handling things.
And that meat shield was talking about me! It's me! It's too bad to help others decide their fate without their consent... Well, that's what I said, but in this situation, it seems that I have no other choice but to be a human shield?
As long as necessary to repair the knife on the devil on the line.
"Speaking of which, which god does Miss Sen believe in?"
In order to keep the topic from developing in a weird direction, I decided to divert the attention of these two people.
"Oh, didn't I tell you?"
"At least I don't remember..."
Not to mention the religion I belong to, I don't even know the appearance of this nun lady. She always wears a black nun's attire, with the hood pulled up so that no one can see her face clearly. This kind of behavior is actually quite common, and one's own face can be regarded as one of the pieces of information. If it is covered up, it will make other people's judgments have a certain error, so as to facilitate one's own actions. After all, this is a very vast continent, and there are all kinds of races. It is always a better way to protect yourself by hiding your racial characteristics and pretending to be an inconspicuous guy.
So what is Miss Sen for?
Is the identity of a nun appearing in various places too abrupt?
In that case, you can also choose to change your clothes.
Or is it that the nun's dress is actually a pair of traits inscribed with many runes, named "Yi O Church", which has the effect of resisting high-level magic, as long as it will not be touched by a golden hand of a pick-up girl? will be destroyed.
…………
I always feel like I'm going somewhere weird.
Sure enough, it's because Qiuqiu always likes to talk about things with me.
"I am a follower of Octavia."
"It turned out to be a believer in Octavia."
Emily looked excited.
It's just that the tone sounds no different from stick reading.
After all, she used to be a follower of Octavia, right? If the diary I saw at the beginning was written by her in a serious manner, then there should be no problem with this speculation, but Emily always does things half true and half false. I can't be sure which part to listen to and which part not to listen to. .
In Octavia's words, is it the god of light?
I don't know why, but my first reaction was "Holy Light gives me strength".
Maybe it's an occupational disease?
"Eh? Isn't the Octavian religion already hidden?"
"The world needs us. The Great Hierarch decided to re-born to spread the light to the creatures on Lindsay Continent... But I am a special case. I am going out this time to practice."
"Practice!"
Emily seemed to be missing something.
If she doesn't maintain this great tone, it will make people think that she was once a member of Octavia's church.
"It's practice, but it's actually just walking around and helping those who can help."
"And beat those demons and monsters that can beat them?"
"And eat food you haven't eaten before."
"Finally, I want to bully the brave man I've heard about but never seen before."
Hello!
"That's it!"
Hey Hey hey!
Don't just hit it off!
The brave men you speak of are right behind you! Stare at you! At any time, you can pull out the dagger and "squeak" twice to let you know who is really being bullied! At that time, no one will come to save you even if you shout out your throat... Ahem, it seems that my painting style has changed a bit?
"It's here."
Emily paused.
A spacious room, a box full of fake jewelry and gold coins, a reverse pentagram magic circle carved on the ground, and four bonfire stands arranged according to rules around it. I thought it was just a cult ritual, but I never thought about the demon's recovery ceremony. If I didn't identify these messy things, I might just ignore this place.
Activate 【Appraisal】
"Props [Death Demon McMillan's sealed left hand]
Item information: A part of the death demon McMillan's body is currently sealed. When all the parts are collected and a large amount of the breath of the dead is offered to it, it will be revived and appear in this world as the main body. "
Oh, the right hand was identified last time, and the left hand was identified this time.
It looks like it really has all the parts in it.
"Is this the one?"
"Um."
I hand Sen the strange arm that looks like a stone sculpture.
After taking it, she observed it repeatedly for a while, and kept releasing magic spells as if to confirm something. The magic circle in her hand was frequently unfolded, bursting out with pure white light. After repeating it about 7 or 8 times, Sen stopped, put his arms on the ground, took a few steps back, spread out the scriptures he was carrying, and began to chant divine spells.
Both the timbre and the rhythm are very nice, the only unacceptable thing is the weird pronunciation.
Every time I hear it, I can't help imitating it, and imitating it will cause my tongue to tie up.
A dot of light appeared above the scripture, and the dot gradually grew longer under Sen's chanting, looking like a short stick. At this time, Sen suddenly stopped singing, grabbed the piece of light with her right hand and raised it high, the light deformed in her hand, and finally turned into the shape of a warhammer, then the light began to dim, and when it disappeared completely, Sen's hand appeared. The hammer used to smash Melville.
"oh!"
Emily couldn't help but let out an exclamation.
But, just like before, it's still... a great read.
Did he have some trouble with Sen?
"Do you have to take out the weapon like this? Don't you think it's a waste of time?"
I couldn't help asking.
In a real fight, there would never be such a long time to allow a person to take out his own weapon. Generally speaking, he either carried it in a place that was easy to take out, or threw it in a different space like me. Although it is said to be a unique ability like [backpack], it is actually just an extension of my space magic.
This is probably the only advantage I have when I have no combat power, right?
"A brave man doesn't understand other people's hard work at all."
Eh?
Why is Emily bringing the subject up to me again?
"Yeah, Mister Brave doesn't understand people's hearts at all."
Ehhhhh?
Suddenly Sen started to echo what Emily said?
Suddenly I don't understand people's hearts?
"It's common sense to show your breasts when you talk, even boys should be like this."
Eh eh eh eh?
What a try.
"I said, what we have to think about now is how to deal with the rituals here, not whether I understand people's hearts."
"I have a solution, but you two step back and leave some space for me to try."
Sen said so.
She also raised her warhammer.
The entire warhammer was infused with some kind of power, emitting a dazzling white light. When the white light reached a certain critical point, Sen swung his warhammer and smashed down on [the sealed left hand of Death Demon McMillan] which was placed on the ground. When the warhammer collided with the arm, there was a huge noise and violent air waves. If Emily hadn't set the [Silent Barrier] in advance, the entire bandit group would probably be attracted... Ah! Maybe it’s not just that, in the closed room, the sound will continue to reverberate, although it will not cause any physical harm to Emily and me, but it will cause a short period of loss of strength and inability to concentrate.
The white light on the hammer dissipated, and Sen picked up the hammer and set it on the ground.
That arm is almost intact.
If it weren't for the subtle horizontal lines that can be seen on the top, I would even suspect that Sen just didn't use any force.
"It seems that there is no way to directly destroy it."
"Then what should we do? Take these parts away and seal them in another place?"
I asked Sen this way.
But she shook her head and looked at me seriously.
"Why do you have to do such a troublesome thing, just get the demon out in advance and then strangle it completely?"
"Hey! But aren't demons unkillable?"
"If there is no way, no matter how strong the force is, it will not be able to kill the demons. If the force is weak, even if there is a way, it will not be able to kill the demons... To be precise, this is the case."
Emily answered my doubts.
After she looked up at Sen, she walked to the side.
"Everything has weaknesses, even gods cannot escape this fate, let alone demons."
"That is to say?"
"As long as you create some hands and feet before the ceremony, you can ensure that the demon will appear in an extremely weak state when he wakes up. Then trying to strangle it is just a matter of finding a weak point."
Emily said so.
As if it wasn't a joke.
She really took the option of "killing demons" seriously.
"So, having said so much, why don't we first consider how to do it... Before that, can Mister Brave find all the parts?"
"Eh……"
I complain.
I wanted to say "Miss Sen, you can detect the devil's breath" so as to evade it, after all, it is very energy-consuming to identify one by one.
In the end, Sen was one step ahead of me.
"It's all filled with the smell of demons. My nose is not so sensitive yet."
"..."
Are you a demon hound? !
Don't make people misunderstand!
"Well then, please wait a moment."
I know that there are only three people but two of them are not very serious. As the only one in the current temporary team who can support seriousness, it is very difficult for me to suppress my desire to complain!
I took a breath, then nodded, and started to do the task Sen gave me.
ah!
Hope that demon doesn't throw a curse on me.
etc?
I suddenly realized a very important thing.
# Now, if Sen and Emily are not paying attention, what are the chances of using space magic to escape here and then ensuring that I will not be killed if Emily finds me in the future? #
# Waiting online! urgent! #
