The black smoke suddenly twisted, gradually forming a black tornado with the wreckage of the off-road vehicle as the eye of the storm.
As if a pair of hands were manipulating the tornado, the black storm suddenly slammed straight into the Holy Order Camp, exploding into a gust of wind that sent the members of the Holy Order Camp flying.
“Cough! Uwaah! Finally breathing fresh air. I was about to die from the stench of that burnt gas. Xi Si Te, since you can use your Drill like that, why didn’t you?”
“Using it like that consumes a lot of electricity. With that high power output just now, this newly replaced battery is probably only half charged. If I use it casually, the expenses will be huge.”
“Such a frugal homemaker, as expected—ouch!”
Before Ou Mi You could say that word, Xi Si Te flicked her on the forehead.
Although she didn’t use much force, Ou Mi You cooperatively shut her mouth.
“Le Paxi, what’s happening now?”
“This gentleman doesn’t seem to want to explain, so I think we should just do things our way.”
“I see.”
Xi Si Te replied calmly, clasping her hands together in a prayer gesture.
“This is a necessary slaughter. Lord, forgive my sins.”
Xi Si Te picked up her Double-headed Scythe.
Even under the sunlight, the blade emitted a chilling light.
“Hai Shi, get up. If you keep sleeping, your butt will get hot.”
“Umm… I woke up early, but I’m very angry. The Captain said that only bad guys hit without warning, so Hai Shi will hit the bad guys.”
“Then get up. Here.”
Xi Si Te handed Hai Shi her weapon and then jumped off the off-road vehicle that had already been reduced to scrap in the artillery fire.
“This off-road vehicle… it can’t be repaired, can it…”
These regretful words were spoken, and everyone felt the same.
The off-road vehicle had accompanied the squad for quite some time.
They had traveled across almost the entire continent in it, and now it was destroyed by a bunch of rats.
Even the usually gentle and refined Xi Si Te now felt anger surging within her, her hand unconsciously gripping her weapon tighter.
“Ugh… eh… Ah! What’s happening! What just happened to me!”
“Nothing’s wrong, Little Leng Leng. You just passed out.”
“Huh? But I think I saw something fly over, and then…”
“It was a missile.”
“Huh? … Ha!? You said a missile!?”
Ou Mi You said it casually.
Leng Qiongling thought she was talking about something like a small stone, but a missile!?
“No way! A missile!? Then how did I…”
“Don’t forget your current situation. Although you may not fully understand the extent of your physical abilities, ordinary artillery fire can’t hurt you.”
“Ah… right…”
Leng Qiongling gradually calmed down.
She looked around and found herself inside a crater, and the off-road vehicle she had been driving was already wrecked.
“This car…”
“No helping it. We’ll just have to use the new one as a replacement.”
Although Ou Mi You said it casually, Leng Qiongling still felt guilty, thinking she had failed to protect the squad’s belongings.
“In that case, just atone for it with something else.”
Ou Mi You used the car door to support herself as she jumped off.
The door she used for support turned into a pile of ash scattered on the ground after she flipped out.
“Alright then… Wait… My sword!!!”
Leng Qiongling turned around and saw that the long sword she had taken from the weapon room had already melted under the artillery bombardment, leaving only a shapeless piece of iron on the ground.
“Oh dear… What do we do now…”
Ou Mi You leaned over and watched Leng Qiongling sadly pick up the piece of iron, her eyes full of sympathy.
“Then what? Why not take mine? I have plenty here.”
As she said that, Ou Mi You tossed out one of her Bone Spears from behind.
Leng Qiongling quickly put down the iron piece and caught the Bone Spear.
The sudden weight made her stagger for a moment before she managed to lift it up.
“This weight is really different. It feels like I can put all my strength into it without holding back.”
Leng Qiongling remarked as she weighed the Bone Spear in her hand.
Although this weapon didn’t feel particularly special when held, compared to ordinary weapons, it was indeed unusual.
“That’s what makes it fun.”
Ou Mi You waved her hand, signaling Leng Qiongling to get off the car.
It was then that she felt a burning sensation on her butt.
She quickly stood up to check and sighed in relief when she found that her clothes hadn’t torn there.
After getting off the car, Leng Qiongling originally wanted to follow them up, but the Bone Spear in her hand suddenly seemed to come alive, struggling to escape from her grasp.
“Wha, what’s going on!?”
“Oh dear, it seems it doesn’t like Little Leng Leng. Then there’s no choice. Little Leng Leng, just watch.”
Ou Mi You retrieved the Bone Spear that had escaped from Leng Qiongling’s hand and strode upward, leaving a bewildered Leng Qiongling behind.
Seeing that their leader hadn’t returned for so long, a group of people unable to control their curiosity gathered at the edge of the crater, leaning over to see what was happening at the bottom.
But a body flew over like a falling bird, scattering the Saint Assembly members who had come to watch.
After they scrambled to the side, they realized that the one thrown up was the corpse of their leader.
Sensing that something was wrong, the Saint Assembly members immediately aimed their guns at the edge of the crater.
At that moment, a woman wearing a simple nun’s habit and holding a three-meter-long Double-headed Scythe walked up from below.
She walked forward as if she didn’t care about the hundreds of guns aimed at her.
“Stop! If you take another step, we’ll shoot!”
Without their leader’s orders, a Saint Assembly member standing near the front shouted in a trembling but desperate voice.
But the nun across from him acted as if she hadn’t heard, and was almost at the entrance of their camp.
“Fire! Fire!”
Hundreds of rifles fired at Xi Si Te simultaneously.
But Xi Si Te simply held the Double-headed Scythe horizontally in front of her and gave it a casual spin.
The scythe spun at a speed that was barely visible, knocking every bullet aimed at her to the ground.
Seeing such a method of blocking bullets, the Saint Assembly crowd erupted in terrifying screams.
The seemingly endless hail of bullets stopped within moments, and what followed was a one-sided massacre.
Xi Si Te darted past several Saint Assembly members blocking the entrance.
The scythe was dotted with blood, and those members had already lost their heads.
As if not even allowing screams, Xi Si Te charged into the camp.
The Double-headed Scythe in her hand was the last thing everyone in the camp saw.
Of course, perhaps when their heads hit the ground, they could still see the blue sky, or the yellow earth, or the nun whose clothes were stained with blood.
This was not a righteous counterattack or a purge of a fanatical group.
It was just a massacre.
Just a small part of the things that happen all the time, leaving no trace.
