Quadruple split.

Chapter 445 Interlude
"Gods bless you"

Gelbin sighed deeply, and threw out the small round shield that had quietly replaced the long sword in his hand. The shield with the city gate emblem printed on it turned into a piercing arc across the air, While knocking the mutants in front of them into the air, it also protected the two paladins at the end of the team who were about to be dragged off their mounts by the enemy, and cut off four or five half-length undead who had climbed onto their horses.

But he didn't rescue the knight who was surrounded by nearly a hundred monsters. Gelbin didn't turn his head until the latter figure was completely left behind by the knights.

As a high-level paladin, isn't he capable of rescuing that young knight from the Sun Sect?

The answer is obviously no.

Even though he had exhausted a lot of physical strength, his state was only less than [-]% of what it was in his heyday, but if Gelbin wanted to, he could still rush into the middle of those monsters without dragging down the large army, and leave the unfortunate one behind. He was rescued by the knights, and he was able to return to the main army safely and continue to serve as the spear point of the knight order.

The whole process doesn't even take two minutes
But Gelbin did not do this, the reason is very simple, although he has a way to help a knight who has lost his mount continue to move forward with the team, this will eventually cause a little extra load on him, which means that in the next journey Among them, as the strongest man, he couldn't cover everyone with all his strength. Whether he swung his sword slowly or threw out his shield half a second late, some people would fall behind.

After all, he is just a high-ranking paladin after all.

After losing the [Joint Purification] bonus and leading everyone to charge for two and a half rounds, even Gelbin couldn't take care of everyone, otherwise the paladin just wouldn't be left behind up.

So the choice before him is very clear
Save, a young and heroic life will be continued, even if there are any problems later, I can say 'I did my best' with a clear conscience.

If it is not saved, the lives of more people will be protected.

Therefore, Gelbin did not look back, nor did the high-ranking paladins such as Snowmane and Poker behind him.

Because the word "justice" has long been deeply engraved in their souls, this kind of choice that seems to have no right or wrong is actually just a multiple-choice question for them that does not need to think about.

The whole process is simply to quantify all possibilities, and then make an absolutely fair decision, nothing more.

Therefore, although the people of the Justice Sect are always criticized and are known for being shameless and shameless, only those who really understand them know that these people may be the coldest and most ruthless among the clergy of the entire Holy Church. a batch.

Even if the first and last sacrifices in a war, an army, a story always have a special presence, these people are not touched in the slightest. Of course, they are not really untouched. It just couldn't be shaken in the slightest.

Even if they would be unhappy and cry bitterly because of this afterwards, at least at this moment, these fair high-ranking knights did not hesitate even a millisecond.

Is it so hard to do nothing?
Although there is no standard answer to this question, if the person involved is a person with sufficient strength and sense of justice, then such a move will undoubtedly be quite difficult or even tortured.

Therefore, it is really too difficult to practice belief in any situation, no matter what kind of belief it is.

"how so."

Following closely at the end of the team, Goshawk, who had hardly faced the mutants directly, was lying on the horse's back with a pale complexion, only feeling that his hands and feet were cold.

The lizardman knight, who joined the joint force half a month ago but had never witnessed the sacrifice of his teammates, looked back somewhat unacceptably, but he could no longer see the figure wielding the cross sword vigorously. Endless mutants.

【Who the hell! 】

He gritted his teeth tightly, his orange vertical pupils were full of anger and hatred: "Who the hell would be so mad?"

Even though many NPCs thought that the plague was just an unfortunate accident, as a player, Goshawk knew very well that it was not that simple.

There is at least a [-]% possibility that the catastrophe that suddenly fell on Misha County was not a natural disaster, but a man-made disaster.

[Regional world task: Find the source of the plague: 0/1, reward:? ? ? 】

This task itself, which has never made any progress, can already explain a lot of things.

at the same time
Hoover City, Missha County

Wenqiu, who was playing with a few children in the church square, stopped suddenly, and stared at a certain frame in the corner of his field of vision with his bright eyes without blinking, and the string of numbers on it was changing rapidly.

[Remnants of mutants: 15749]

[Remnants of mutants: 15742]

[Remnants of mutants: 15731]

[Remnants of mutants: 15728]

In just five seconds, the number of toys transformed by the [pathological] talent decreased by [-], and there was no sign of stopping.

You must know that just before [-] o'clock this morning, the number of those toys was still stable at more than [-], but until now, this number has been reduced by a full third, and it is still very unstable. The frequency continued to decline, which is simply.
"It's simply amazing!"

Wenqiu's small face was flushed with excitement, and he clapped his hands with a smile: "Brother Hei Fan, they are so good! Although they are just cheap toys that pop out of themselves without doing anything, they can kill so many in one go. It's also very powerful!"

Boom!
A light thrust came from behind, but the moment it reached the girl, it had quietly turned into nothingness.

"oops!"

But Wenqiu still stumbled forward a few steps, then tilted his head to look at the half-kneeling human girl behind him, and asked with concern: "Well, Kasha, are you okay?"

Wearing a simple linen dress, the thin girl with only one shoe on one foot shook her head timidly: "No, it's okay, Xiao Wenqiu, I'm sorry, I didn't stand firm just now, and accidentally bumped into you."

This girl named Kasha is a very typical girl from a poor family. She is plainly dressed and has rough skin. 'Really healthy'.

"Don't worry, I'm fine~"

Wenqiu shook his head vigorously, and then looked at the other party with a worried face: "It's Kasha, why are you so red? Are you sick?"

At this moment, several other children who were running wildly around also came over, surrounded the two of them and started yelling.
"Why did you stop?"

"Hey, why is Kasha's face so red?"

"Wow, it's really popular. Did you eat poisonous mushrooms yesterday?"

"No, no, didn't we show the mushrooms we picked to the nun sister, who said they were edible!"

"Could it be sick?"

"My father said that this place is favored by the Goddess of Dawn, and no one will get sick."

"But Kasha's face is really red!"

"Xiao Wenqiu's face is also a little red!"

"I'm fine, I just remembered something happy."

Wenqiu shook her head with a smile, then pulled Kasha's sleeve and asked, "Hey, is there anything uncomfortable? How about we go find sister nun?"

Kasha hesitated for a moment, then pursed her lips and said in a low voice: "No, I'm fine, I'm just a little weak, maybe go home and get some sleep."

"Are you sure? Kasha."

A blond girl in a pink dress frowned, bit her finger and said, "What if I'm really poisoned or sick, and there's um... nothing."

"plague!"

A chubby little dwarf boy exclaimed and subconsciously took half a step back: "What if it's a plague!"

Kasha's thin body trembled visibly.

The blond girl glared at the little dwarf boy viciously, and said angrily, "Don't talk nonsense! The sister nun and the pastor have both said that there will be no more plagues here! Believe it or not, I will tell your father to let him spank your ass!"

The latter trembled more than Kasha who was startled, shook his head tremblingly and said, "Don't, don't, I only have a broom left in my house, it's better to save it."

"That's how it is. You guys play here first. I'll take Kasha home and stay with her for a while."

Wenqiu took Kasha's hand, smiled at the blond girl, "If there is anything to do, I will rush back to look for sister nun. If there is nothing to do, Elena, you can take Kasha's place with me at night."

The young but mature Elena immediately nodded and said, "Okay!"

The other children didn't have any objections, or they didn't have any opinions, so Wenqiu half pulled and half supported Kasha, who was a little smaller than her, and left.

five minutes later
Hover City South Street
"That, Xiao Wenqiu."

Kasha staggered and stopped, squatting on the spot wearily, and whispered: "I want to take a break, is that okay? It will be fine in a while."

Wenqiu stuck out her tongue, helped her to a corner and sat down, and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I forgot that you have no strength now, don't worry, you can rest as long as you want."

"Um"

At this moment, Kasha's face was so red that it was almost dripping blood, and even her consciousness began to become blurred, and she whispered: "Maybe I am really... sick."

Wenqiu squeezed the other person's little hands that were getting hot, and said in relief: "Don't worry, it's fine even if you are really sick. I will ask my brothers, sisters, and uncles in the church to take good care of you. Don't forget me and Wang Sister Yu has a very good relationship, and it is said that Brother Hei Fan is doing well now~"

Kasha nodded ignorantly: "I'm not quite sure what you mean, but still. Thank you, Xiao Wenqiu."

Before she finished speaking, the girl who had a high fever of nearly [-] degrees completely lost consciousness, and fell into Wenqiu's arms with her head tilted.

"I fainted."

Wenqiu blinked, then raised her small hand to touch Kasha's forehead, chuckled and said in a low voice: "Sure enough, it can be effective even in this land blessed by the Goddess of Dawn, but this The mixed plague that was able to kill those uncles in an instant was suppressed for three days before it was initially revealed, well, the power of the gods is really amazing! It would be great if there were gods outside the game, I am not happy!"

She puffed her lips, and rubbed Kasha's hot little face affectionately, then stood up, held her cheeks and wrinkled her nose in distress.

"So what should I do~"

The girl gently tugged at her hair twice, and stuck out her tongue playfully: "At that time, I didn't think about what to do next. Now Kasha can only live for two days at most, eh, but if it is less If it’s Kasha, there won’t be enough people in the catch game.”

Therefore, Wenqiu fell into a deep entanglement between the two choices of letting Kasha die casually and continuing to play that childish game.

"Forget it, anyway, there was no problem before, if there is no Kasha, we can only play small cards, that is so boring!"

After struggling for a full thirty seconds, the girl finally made up her mind. She tapped her little hand lightly, then turned her little head to look around.

Although the current Wenqiu is just an ordinary little girl with no occupation and only 20 health points, she has already figured out the situation in Hoover City, and she can roughly judge that there should be no one in the vicinity within ten minutes, so just confirm it casually. After looking at the environment, I can 'transform' with confidence.

[Talent switched to: Flawless Evil]

[Your camp has been changed to: Chaotic Evil]

The system prompt sounded in the ear as expected.

The girl ranked No.6 in the player's combat power leaderboard opened the panel and smiled with satisfaction. She found that she had become a lot stronger without knowing it.

"Hey, get well soon, my good friend~"

A black oval 'seed' appeared in Wenqiu's palm, and quickly pulled out a stream of dirty red and green blood from Kasha's lower abdomen, and was then gently crushed into powder by his master, and then The wind cleared.

The abnormal blush on Kasha's face faded quickly.

However, Wenqiu, who was trying to transform into the state of [Innocent Heart], unexpectedly heard a reminder——

[Failed to switch, whether to pay a 48-hour cooldown to force the activation of this talent]

[Innocent Heart] Trait 1: When this talent is activated in a combat state, the cooling time will be changed to 48 hours.

Although no one attacked Wenqiu, the moment she transformed into [Flawless Evil], she was forcibly dragged into a fighting state by the god-favored land under her feet.

"Ah, forgot, forgot."

Wenqiu patted his smooth forehead, rubbed his toes on the ground a little embarrassedly, and then forcibly activated the talent.

"Really, it's too troublesome~"
