Even goblins are dangerous in this other world!

By this time, people had already taken refuge inside their houses, but the demon bats' sharp claws and the dark iridescent light from their mouths were enough to destroy this fragile cover.

Rose gritted her teeth and drew her bow, her body bursting with black and white light. The bow in her hand seemed to grow a pair of wings, and thousands of arrows immediately appeared in the air in front of her. As she released her grip, these arrows disappeared into the swarm of demonic bats like streaks of light.

Black and White Shuttle

After shooting that arrow, her face turned even paler, her arm trembled, and she almost lost all strength, making it difficult to even hold the bow.

Fortunately, the arrow was effective, and the low-level demonic bats, which were baring their fangs and claws, were pushed back into the sky by the stream of light.

"Bang Bang Bang!!!"

Suddenly, several bursts of blood erupted in the sky, and large swarms of demonic bats perished, turning into pieces of flesh and blood that fell to the ground.

Rose's eyes narrowed; she knew very well that this was definitely not the power of the arrow she had fired.

In just a moment, it killed swarms of demonic bats; its power even surpassed the spatial abilities Peggy used.

Her eyes sparkled with joy because she was thinking of someone.

If anyone could do that, it could only be Luo Xiu.

Sure enough, as the blood rain gradually subsided, a tall figure emerged from it.

"Rose, Lundrol, how's the situation?"

Luo Xiu emerged from the rain of blood.

Blood dripped onto his cloak, staining it like blood-red plum blossoms.

He had just passed through the area under the Chamber of Commerce's jurisdiction and found that the situation there was terrible, so he had sent Leila ahead of him.

"Hooho-"

A deafening roar echoed through the air, and a colossal, snow-white creature appeared in people's field of vision.

Just as people were panicking, thinking it was another demon, they were pleasantly surprised to find that the enormous creature actually waved its hand and smashed a large number of low-level demon bats into mincemeat.

Cheers and cries erupted from the crowd, with many believing it to be God's will and a blessing.

Although they had never seen what God looked like.

Rose looked at Luo Xiu:

"Lord Luo Xiu, the battle is now almost even. The rate of casualties on our side has slowed down considerably, but still..."

"Move all the wounded together, and move all those who are not completely dead together."

As soon as Luo Xiu spoke, Rose immediately went to prepare with great joy.

With Luo Xiu here, she knew she no longer needed to be in charge of the attack.

Lundel stepped forward and looked at Luo Xiu:

"Your Excellency, your return means that the situation at the cave has already... "

"Yes, there are no problems over there for the time being."

Luo Xiu nodded:

"You and Rose go and deal with the wounded. I'll take care of things here."

"Okay, Your Excellency."

Upon hearing that the cave had been pacified, Lundel secretly breathed a sigh of relief. His perpetually icy expression softened considerably. He respectfully nodded to Luo Xiu and turned to leave.

Before leaving, he glanced back and saw Luo Xiu grabbing the feet of two fourth-tier demonic bats, one in each hand, and swinging them violently.

The demonic bat's entire body exploded during the high-speed shaking, turning directly into a cloud of blood mist.

He was secretly alarmed, yet overjoyed, as his figure disappeared into the shadows.

But at this moment, Luo Xiu's mind was not on the demonic bats in front of him. While grabbing a demonic bat that was obviously a size larger than an ordinary fourth-tier demonic bat and tearing off its terrifying and ferocious head, he looked towards the direction of the inner city.

He went up to check on them when he passed by the Knights' Building, but Hup and Bozelica were gone. Judging from the direction they left, they should have gone to the inner city. He hoped they were safe.

……

inner city.

In the cave.

The discussion among the fifth-order members was not as intense as it had been at the beginning. With the main conflict resolved, the remaining discussions mainly involved making suggestions and following procedures step by step.

Based on past experience, when we reach this step, there are usually only a few hours left before the meeting ends.

Hermes, wearing a black and white mask, poured himself a glass of red wine and was taking small sips.

This is something he does every time he holds a meeting; everything is the same as usual.

His performance today was impeccable, arousing no suspicion from anyone present.

That's great, that's wonderful.

He couldn't help but feel a little smug.

Although he had previously sensed feedback from the fifth-tier mushroom monster that his breakthrough had failed, the general direction was still proceeding according to his predetermined path.

By the time the meeting ends in five or six hours, Kanriel outside will surely have become a ghost town, and the deal will be halfway done.

By then, even if those idiots in front of him realize what's going on, it won't matter; he'll at least get half of what he wants.

Not to mention that his purpose this time goes far beyond that.

He took a small sip of the wine, finding it incredibly sweet in his mouth.

"Dong Dong Dong!!!"

Suddenly, a knocking sound came from above. It was very faint, but everyone in the cave was at the fifth level and could hear it clearly.

Tata looked up at the ceiling, and for some reason, he felt uneasy all day.

"Dong Dong Dong!!!"

The knocking grew louder, even affecting the walls inside the cave, which trembled slightly.

"Someone is attacking this place."

The little girl in the silver helmet spoke in a low voice.

The location of the Kanril Conference was quite secluded; who would have found it, let alone dared to attack it?

Hermes put down his wine cup, a vague sense of foreboding creeping over him.

He didn't recall making any plans to attack the crypts at the River of Warlocks.

Who could that be?

He felt the wine in his mouth was no longer as sweet.

"Let me do it."

He raised his hand, and a dark magic circle unfolded, intending to kill the person above through the mud, but was blocked by Tata's tentacles.

"I come."

Tata spoke in a deep voice:

"It's better to capture them alive."

"They've already found their way to this underground cave, something must have happened."

"..."

Hermes felt a bitter taste in the remaining wine in his mouth, and the ominous premonition grew stronger.

Just as Tata's tentacles reached into the soil above, the little girl beside her suddenly spoke up:

"This aura... I think I know who it is."

Chapter 197 The Collapse of Hermes

As soon as the silver-armored loli spoke, everyone looked at her.

Tata's tentacles, which had already disappeared into the wall above, stopped and looked at her, wondering which of the Knights Commander Kanriel's old friends she was, that had managed to find the underground cave.

"There are two auras in total, one of which belongs to Bojelica."

The silver-armored loli noticed someone looking at her with a puzzled expression and explained:

“One of my deputy commanders, you should be quite familiar with him, since he was the one who arranged this.”

The little girl looked at Shek with a cold smile.

Seeing that the topic was about to return to square one, Tata interrupted:

"Alright, bring the person in and we'll find out."

"A deputy regimental commander actually came here; it seems something really has happened."

After speaking, the tentacles that had disappeared into the stone wall above surged with magical power, seemingly searching for the location of the outsider.

A moment later, the tentacle paused, then quickly contracted downwards.

Fluorescent light surged on the stone wall, and with a "whoosh," two figures were bound by tentacles and pulled into the cave, where they were thrown to the ground.

"Ouch."

He landed on his bottom and cried out in pain.

Bojelica also landed on her bottom, but she didn't shout because she couldn't bring herself to do it when she saw the figures in front of her.

With the Guild Leader, the City Lord, Master Tata, the Chamber of Commerce President, and the Deans of the two academies all gathered together, she couldn't help but swallow hard.

"Master Captain."

She looked at the little girl in silver helmet, bowed, and spoke.

The little girl in silver helmet didn't reply, but just snorted coldly.

Bojelica broke out in a cold sweat.

She used to be Earl Shek's mole in the Knights, so does the captain's attitude mean he already knows?

She was sweating profusely, but that didn't stop her from yelling at Tata:

"Master Tata, we've finally found you."
