My double is steve

"This...this is..."

Seeing the young corpse in front of him that was mostly covered by frost and snow, Natsuki Subaru's expression suddenly froze.

"Subaru, what's wrong?"

Seeing Natsuki Subaru suddenly stay where he was, Rem also took the initiative to take a look, but was obviously stunned as well: "Is this... is this a child from the village?"

"...This is Ruka."

Natsuki Subaru's expression at this moment was extremely ugly, and he clenched his fists tightly together: "That kid with a runny nose... He clearly promised to be an excellent woodcutter when he grows up, damn it. Who is it? He doesn’t even let such an innocent child go!”

"If the enemy is so vicious, then Emilia-sama must be in danger now..." Rem couldn't bear it, but she still reminded her: "Subaru, we don't have time to delay."

"Yeah, I understand."

After all, Natsuki Subaru had grown up a lot. At this moment, he took a deep breath and forced himself to calm down: "Let's go, Rem, we must return to the mansion as soon as possible!"

"good."

Rem responded, and then took out her own metal hammer.

But before the two of them could move on, a rustling sound suddenly came from the surrounding trees, as if someone was hiding inside.

"Who!?"

Natsuki Subaru became alert in an instant.

"Shua..."

Following a question, a small white thing suddenly popped out of the trees not far away. It jumped on the ground a few times, then came to a place near Natsuki Subaru and looked up at him.

That's not human.

But a strange-looking little rabbit.

Pure white fur, a soft body like a cloud, long pale pink ears, and rodent-like incisors. It is obvious that this is a rabbit, but what is different from ordinary rabbits is that the top of the head of this rabbit There is a short sharp corner.

"Um?"

After Natsuki Subaru saw this thing, he couldn't help but be stunned: "Is this...a rabbit?"

"this……"

After Rem saw this thing in the distance, she seemed to recall it, and then her expression suddenly changed and she said hurriedly: "Subaru! Danger!"

The words have not yet been spoken here.

The rabbit not far away suddenly flew towards Natsuki Subaru.

"!"

Fortunately, Natsuki Subaru's reaction was faster. He dodged sideways and then swung a pendulum down with his left hand, slamming the rabbit into the ground in an instant.

Just listen to the sound of 'dong'.

This rabbit was crushed to death by Natsuki Subaru's strange power.

"I won't fall for the same trick twice." Natsuki Subaru looked at the dead rabbit on the ground seriously, with a particularly vigilant expression: "At first, that stupid dog looked harmless, but in the end it tortured me. Life and death..."

"Pleiades."

Seeing Natsuki Subaru avoid the attack, Rem also breathed a sigh of relief.

"Rem, do you know this ghost thing?" And it was only at this moment that Natsuki Subaru turned his head and looked at the other person: "Is this thing also a kind of magical beast?"

"This is Big Rabbit."

Rem's expression was particularly solemn: "Unlike the monsters Subaru encountered last time, these rabbits are a terrifying disaster that everyone knows..."

"Big Rabbit?"

When Natsuki Subaru heard this, he looked down at the rabbit corpse with some confusion.

This rabbit looks completely harmless to humans and animals, and it can be killed with just one punch. It doesn't seem very dangerous, right? What's more, this thing is not very big, right?

"Big rabbit is just a way of saying it, it doesn't mean that the monster is very big."

Rem saw Natsuki Subaru's confusion, so he added: "This thing is a disaster that is also known as the three major monsters along with the white whale. It does not rely on acting alone, but hunts in groups, and It can also multiply indefinitely...there is no way to kill it completely."

"What?"

Natsuki Subaru was obviously stunned when he heard this: "Doesn't that mean..."

"We're being targeted."

Rem's tone was very solemn, and she was holding the metal chain ball and looking around: "Subaru, be careful, almost no one can survive the big rabbit's attack..."

They are talking here.

There was a rustling sound all around.

In the blink of an eye, countless white plush balls emerged from every corner, including bushes, snowdrifts, and rock peaks. In the blink of an eye, the two of them were surrounded by these rabbits.

"Chi...ka..."

Several of the rabbits jumped forward.

Then he moved towards the corpse of the village child on the ground.

The rabbits lowered their heads and sniffed, then opened their mouths and ate the corpse as if chewing grass stems. The sharp incisors took out large pieces of flesh and blood between opening and closing, and then stuffed them into their mouths and chewed them repeatedly. Scarlet plasma slowly dripped out from their mouths.

But their expressions are surprisingly peaceful.

It was as if they were not eating flesh, but chewing some kind of sweet and juicy berry.

"They...they are eating Luka's body?!"

Even though Natsuki Subaru had a good attitude, he still felt horrified after witnessing this, and the hairs all over his body stood up.

"Click..."

However, he just said these words.

Somehow, all the rabbits around him turned to look at him.

"!"

Natsuki Subaru suddenly felt his heart skip a beat.

Fortunately, at this moment, two giant ice picks suddenly flew out of the surroundings and penetrated more than a dozen rabbits in front of them.

"Subaru! Run away!"

Rem immediately rushed over, grabbed Natsuki Subaru's hand and ran forward. At the same time, he kept swinging the metal chain hammer with his other hand, smashing all the rabbits that tried to get closer into pulp.

Being reminded like this by the other party.

Natsuki Subaru suddenly reacted.

Due to the attack by the rabbits, the earth dragon not far away had its legs chewed off. It was obvious that the dragon cart could no longer be used, so the two had to run on their own legs.

I saw Natsuki Subaru waving towards the distance.

The jet-black goo flew directly towards him, and Natsuki Subaru opened his mouth and swallowed it into his stomach.

"ah!!!"

Natsuki Subaru here suddenly shouted loudly, and then his whole figure began to rise rapidly, and then he grabbed Rem and ran towards the distance, several times faster than before.

It's just that I just ran away not long ago.

Rem next to Natsuki Subaru seemed to feel something, her eyes widened in horror, and she clutched her chest and gasped.

"Rem?"

Natsuki Subaru glanced at the other party subconsciously.

"elder sister……"

Rem seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying at this moment, and said with a trembling tone: "Subaru! Hurry! Go to the mansion quickly!!!"

"I see!"

Natsuki Subaru also had some ominous speculations in his heart, but he really didn't want to think about these things now, so he pushed his feet hard and rushed forward desperately.

However, just after he crashed into the last big tree and ran out of the dense forest, he suddenly froze on the spot: "This...what?"

All he could see was the open space ahead.

At this moment, it was completely covered by a terrifying white color.

That's not a snowflake, but an endless sea of ​​rabbits that can't be seen to the end. At this moment, the mouths of these rabbits are covered with blood plasma and meat foam. They are like diners who have just finished their meal, squatting in a dense crowd. There, it seemed like they were waiting for new food to be served on the table.

"this……"

Seeing this scene, Rem was obviously in disbelief: "How many lives have these monsters devoured..."

"Do you still have a sense of teamwork?"

Natsuki Subaru's expression was also very solemn: "It turns out they didn't want to catch up with us just now, they just wanted to drive us into this encirclement..."

"Pleiades."

However, before Natsuki Subaru could come up with some solutions, Rem beside him suddenly said, "Leave this place to me. Subaru himself will definitely find a way to get out."

"……What?"

Natsuki Subaru's heart tightened in vain when he heard this, and he immediately refused: "No! If you stay here, you will die!"

"Don't underestimate me, I can still hold on for a while."

Rem said very seriously: "But if Subaru doesn't rush to the mansion immediately, my sister and Emilia-sama will be in real danger. Besides, doesn't Subaru still have the protection of the spiritual word? Use that Just strengthen it for me, and Mr. Dongwen will be back soon, so don't worry."

"But this..."

Natsuki Subaru said with a somewhat struggling expression: "If something happens to you..."

"It's okay, it doesn't matter even if I die." Rem suddenly smiled, reached out and touched Natsuki Subaru's cheek and said, "Isn't Miss Theresia resurrected by Mr. Tobumi? Subaru, can you save me now? All we have is you..."

"I……"

Natsuki Subaru wanted to say something more, but Rem didn't give him a chance at all. She directly activated magic and combined with the strange power to directly knock him away.

"Ahhhhhhh!!!"

After that, Rem also raised her head and let out a roar.

As a sharp horn appeared on her forehead, she transformed into a ghost. She immediately waved the hammer and began to attack. At the same time, she activated magic, attracting most of the rabbit group's attention.

"Rem!"

After Natsuki Subaru fell far away, he also shouted to Rem anxiously.

It's a pity that Rem ignored him at all and only focused on fighting the rabbits in front of her. In the blink of an eye, she was in danger several times. In the end, she quickly jumped to a tree not far away and finally managed to do it. Avoid the encirclement and suppression of these rabbits.

"Damn...damn..."

Natsuki Subaru's teeth were almost broken. If it had been before, he would have rushed over to save people at all costs, but now in order to take the overall situation into consideration, he could only rush towards the mansion after struggling for a while.

It's just that he ran on this side.

On the other side, he kept activating the protection for Rem.

"Rem will be fine! After Rem's ghost transformation, her skin is very tough, and those rabbits can't bite it through. Rem's speed is super fast, and those rabbits can't catch up with her! And Brother Dongwen will definitely be here soon! Lei! Mu...Rem will win!"

However, even Rem has attracted the attention of a large number of rabbits.

At this moment, there were still a few rabbits staring at him. Natsuki Subaru was a little distracted, and a few rabbits jumped on him without paying attention. Then these rabbits began to bite his body crazily.

Because the pain is blocked.

Natsuki Subaru didn't feel much pain.

But more and more rabbits jumped on his body. In the end, Natsuki Subaru felt that his running speed had slowed down, and he could only keep swatting away these rabbits.

There are even a few rabbits that focus on their own vital points and bite them.

Like Achilles tendon, eyeballs, neck, anyway, he is trying his best to stop his actions.

"Damn..."

The more Natsuki Subaru struggled, the more rabbits jumped on him. In the end, he could only be cruel and simply put on the black ring given to him by Fang Mo.

The next second.

Torrential black flames suddenly erupted from his body.

"hiss……"

Natsuki Subaru subconsciously tightened his muscles, but the piercing pain he imagined did not reach Ali, so he breathed a sigh of relief: "It's great to be able to adjust the pain level. It's not hot anymore!"

I don’t know whether it is psychological effects or variables such as pain value that affect the intensity of intensive care.

Natsuki Subaru found that his body seemed to be healing faster.

And unlike himself, these rabbits biting their bodies obviously couldn't withstand the baptism of black flames. At this moment, they turned into balls of fire, and then they were burned to ashes, without even a little bit of skin and flesh. Leave.

Natsuki Subaru didn't hesitate when he saw this.

As soon as he exerted force on his feet, he continued to run towards the mansion.

He passed the nearby village on the way, but there was no breath of living people here anymore. All he could see was pools of blood on the ground, and some meat foam. It was obvious that the rabbits had eaten up the entire village. When he thought of this, Natsuki Subaru's heart sank a little more.

I ran for about ten minutes.

Natsuki Subaru finally arrived at the mansion where Roswaal was.

But as soon as he rushed here, he saw a lot of strange corpses in purple robes, densely packed in front of the courtyard.

"There's no big rabbit attack here!"

Seeing this scene, Natsuki Subaru suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and then immediately rushed towards the main door. But as soon as he opened the door, he felt his heart stopped for a moment and his pupils dilated. stand up.

Because there is a pink head hanging on the statue not far away.

That was Ram's head, staring blankly forward at the moment. A strange dagger was pierced through the mouth, and then nailed to the statue.

Blood flowed from her mouth and then dropped down along the hilt of the sword.

A small dark pool of blood formed on the ground.

"This...this is..."

Natsuki Subaru seemed to be in a trance when he saw this scene, and stumbled back two steps.

It's just that the air here was extremely biting, and he shivered because of the cold, which made him wake up again. He ran towards the stairs in a panic, and even fell down on the way. It could be said that he rolled and crawled. He rushed towards the second floor.

However, we have just climbed to the second floor.

Natsuki Subaru saw a blood-stained white flower lying on the ground, which was Emilia's headdress.

"No, it won't..."

Natsuki Subaru's expression looked a little twisted and broken due to despair. At this moment, he was staggering along the blood trail, and then suddenly locked on a door.

"Love...Emilia..."

Natsuki Subaru raised his hand in a daze, trying to open the door.

But at this moment, a nameless panic suddenly appeared in his heart. He recalled the tragic situation in the lobby on the first floor. At that moment, he was suddenly extremely frightened when he saw Emilia's death. He hesitated on the spot, not daring to take action.

It was as if someone inside was telling him not to open the door.

But in the next second, Natsuki Subaru suddenly heard Emilia's voice vaguely.

"……Pleiades?"

"Emilia!"

Hearing this voice, Natsuki Subaru suddenly became excited and pushed the door open in front of him without thinking. But in the next second, his eyes suddenly opened wide in disbelief, and there was an indescribable extreme anger. and pain rising from within.

he.

Saw hell...
