It's not the protagonist, what does it matter if you are trapped in the Shura field

Chapter 641 The Wandering Swordsman and the Astrologer Girl
“We belong to the Fifth Princess of Lion Garden.”

Upon arriving at the Ice Elf Jena, who was slumped over and unable to get up, Luo Wei revealed his identity without hesitation.

Jenna, who was both grateful and surprised, was slightly stunned.

"But the Fifth Princess of Lion Garden, isn't that..."

“Well,” Rowe knew what she wanted to say, “the situation on our end has basically stabilized, so we came here to help out.”

"Th-thank you... I almost..."

Seeing that she seemed to remember, Luo Wei quickly supported her to prevent her from moving, and then took out the Frost Dagger and used magic to freeze her wound.

Jenna pursed her lips and stopped struggling. "I'm sorry... I really didn't expect you to come. This is such a surprise to us."

Seeing this, the other monsters slowly gathered around.

"Are they...humans who are helping us?"

"Coo coo... You're a good human!"

"Slime!"

Rowe had no intention of lingering with them any longer. After all, this was just one of the defensive lines. In open areas, Lucas could lead 50,000 troops to invade in one fell swoop, but in forest terrain, the battle lines were all scattered due to the complex topography. This was just one of the locations.

"In which direction are your other combat units located?"

“It’s all over the forest north of here for dozens of miles,” Jenna said, bracing herself against her injuries, as she sensed his thoughts. “But be careful of their scouts; humans are very cunning in this regard.”

"It's ok."

Luo Wei stood up from in front of the other person, then patted Mena's head beside him, "Let's go."

Whether or not he scouts is irrelevant; he's afraid no one will discover him. Just one glance from him will reveal his location to his golden eyes, and with just one glance, he can destroy the other's existence from a distance.

Simply put, those who don't watch his videos won't die.

But if you're not strong enough, you'll die just by looking at them.

The two traveled in silence, except for Luo Wei occasionally glancing left and right. The battlefields they encountered were dealt with in the same way as before, but they were all small in scale, with no more than fifty people involved. None of the bandits from Zeyandi who noticed their arrival were able to escape.

It doesn't seem to be a large-scale attack.

This gave Rowe the feeling that they were there for the materials on the bodies, and he didn't see any of the Aselant Knights mentioned in the intelligence.

Then you should take the initiative to go find them.

Crossing the sea of ​​trees, Luo Wei led Mena directly to the other side of the defensive line, taking down several of the Zeyandi army's camps along the way. The enemy seemed completely surprised that there was still a force actively attacking them, nor did they expect that the sentries had not reported the danger. They were caught off guard and destroyed by sword skills and falling meteors.

“These people are truly sinful,” Mena said calmly, looking at the tent beside her.

“After all, they’re in the business of plundering,” Rowe said coldly. “How much moral standard can you expect from them?”

The tent was piled high with human skulls. These certainly didn't belong to the Saltlands' own army, and since Senkamanda's army had almost no human participants, whose skulls could they be?

“I used to feel guilty, but I don’t anymore.”

"Then why were you throwing meteorites so enthusiastically?"

Luo Wei was too lazy to even complain about her. He had originally said he would come alone, but this guy said there was no point in leaving her in the valley, so he came along.

What kind of bizarre excuse is this for slacking off...?

They walked a little further in, and the terrain around them was very difficult to traverse. They had to cross mountains and valleys along the way. Every time Luo Wei looked back and saw Mena waiting behind him, he felt a chill run down his spine and grabbed her by the back of her collar.

"Can't you just pick me up like a princess, or even just hold my hand?" Mena said, adjusting her hat.

Because she was going out, she wore her astrologer's hat, but it looked more like a sun hat, and a flower had even landed on it. I don't know if it was part of her design or outfit...

Soon, Rowe heard a commotion in the distance, and immediately led Mena in a low voice toward that direction.

The two were in a secluded forest. They walked out into a clearing and around several mounds that blocked their view. Soon they found the source of the commotion in the distance. A group of soldiers from Zeyan were robbing a village and had gathered all the villagers in the square.

"No...no!"

"Why did you come to our village...please!"

Rowe made Mena lower her head, and after observing for a moment, he roughly came to the conclusion that it seemed that because the army in the Saltlands had been defeated and shifted its front line, the new human villages in this area had suffered the current result, and it seemed that they had been in contact beforehand and would not come here.

What else can you say?

After waiting for a while without seeing any particularly noteworthy figures, Lo Wei immediately took Mena outside.

Meanwhile, the soldiers from Zeyandi had already placed their knives against the villagers' necks.

"who!"

The moment they turned around, a dark shadow flashed and arrived. The men who were slaughtering the villagers with knives suddenly bled and fell to the ground.

The remaining soldiers were stunned and almost immediately drew their weapons, but Rowe's actions were like showing them what death is in an instant. In a few seconds, his figure flashed, and afterwards, only a few dozen corpses were left on the ground.

Those who didn't have time to react only wanted to run away, but Mena blocked their way with a Star Flash, slashing a star mark in front of her with her bare hands. The man who was trying to attack her only managed to hit a bubble, and Mena instantly moved to the back.

"I don't want to be touched by any other man, not even a knife."

Then a black arm emerged from the star mark, grabbed the men, and killed them instantly.

This guy is definitely not weak.

Luo Wei sheathed his sword and looked at the man who appeared to be their leader but was now kneeling on the ground in terror. "Who...who are you?! Don't kill me!"

"Where is your saintess?" Rowe asked casually.

The man's pupils contracted slightly, and he pointed towards the ridge further up. Luo Wei almost immediately leaped up in a few strides, and after reaching the summit, he swung his sword and cleaved open the tents that were still there.

The tent was furnished with a luxurious and soft bed, and was filled with exquisite gold and silver objects, as well as various mirrors, jewelry and the like.

However, the person was not there.

Luo Wei smiled. He had actually expected this. This woman was cunning and had many burrows. This was just one of her options for a place to stay. But looking at all the gold and silver treasures in her room, she really knew how to decorate herself.

However, it just so happens that Luo Wei wasn't there to kill her.

I have no interest in her things either; they're probably restricted. I'll kick her out of the tent, watching her roll all over the hillside—go ahead and pick them up.

He then returned to the foot of the mountain, asked the chief about the information of several camps around the village, killed him, and left the village with Mena.

Do you think a story about a wandering swordsman and a young astrologer will become popular here in the future?

Hearing the villagers' gratitude behind her, Mena looked up and asked.

"Then we need to kill a few more squads to have credible evidence."

The two then cleared out all the military camps of the surrounding salt flats, and also encountered villagers who had been tied up along the way. They drove away several groups of thieves, monsters and other miscellaneous creatures from the surrounding villages.

However, when the villagers asked them to stay overnight, Rowe refused and took Mena back into the forest.

……

At night, the two lit a campfire in a clearing in the woods.

"Why did you refuse the villagers' offer to let us stay overnight?" Mena asked, her face calmly dancing in the firelight.

“Didn’t you say you didn’t want other men to touch you?” Rowe took out the rabbit meat, shrugged, and smiled. “Then are you still willing to sleep in beds that other villagers have slept in?”

"Makes sense."

Luo Wei shook his head as he processed the rabbit meat. He hadn't expected her to actually believe him. She just didn't want to owe him a favor, and besides, with so many bandits around here, guess why that village has been peaceful for so many years?
He figured it was better to avoid trouble, and he had no interest in playing the fool in front of the villagers.

"We'll head back tomorrow. Since we're here, we'll stop by Senkamanda. The Wing of the Sky is waiting for us there."

"it is good."

As the rabbit meat, already seasoned and placed over the fire, began to release its fragrant aroma, the girl's mouth watered.

They didn't plan to stay in Senkamanda for too long this time. He had killed at least seven or eight hundred, if not a thousand, soldiers from the Salt Lands today. Their main objective was to force the Saintess of the Melody to retreat. The Church of the Origin of All Things also had its own trump cards yet to be revealed. Instead of rushing into war, Luo Wei planned to give them a push from behind.

Although he wouldn't cooperate with that kind of scoundrel, it didn't mean he wouldn't take advantage of it. Just thinking about what would happen next made him want to laugh.

"Eat slowly." Seeing her anxious and fiery manner as she pulled her hands away, Luo Wei pouted and said.

"This is roasted rabbit meat made with love."

Luo Wei lowered his head helplessly. She had spoken so earnestly, but the way she said it made him want to complain more.

He also took a string of them in his hand and asked curiously, "You didn't come from the Starry Land alone, did you not camp in the wild and find food on your own?"

"I ate magic bread for six months."

"..."

Well, it seems those weren't pleasant memories.

Seeing that her mouth was covered in oil and condiments, and that this was the only time she acted like a normal young girl, he took out a handkerchief from the ripple and handed it to her.

Mena took it somewhat blankly, then looked up at him as if she regretted not letting him wipe it—that's what you were thinking, right!

Having her thoughts suppressed, she shrugged and then stopped talking, beginning to enjoy her food.

Luo Wei, who was eating in large bites, ate relatively quickly.

He threw away the bone, wiped his mouth, and leaned back against the tree trunk. Actually, it wasn't just the two of them who came out on this mission; Saya had also been sent elsewhere to deal with the strange phenomena of fate.

This was also part of his plan. Having the army stationed in the valley would give them time to do these things. However, it seemed that only he and Saya could confidently go out and do these things. The others either lacked brains despite their strength, or lacked strength despite their brains, or were simply irresponsible—like the one in front of him.

She can learn all the spells in the starry sky with just a glance, and her magic power is on par with Saya's. Otherwise, how could she be hailed as a genius? Vimir can only memorize the spell formulas.

She possesses various protective magics in battle, a plethora of escape techniques that ensure her safety, and even the incredible ability to predict the future and interpret fate. Yet, this same person, like Anai Ning and Ayining, is merely a human—though her melee abilities rely entirely on her sword; in reality, she is a weakling skilled only in hand-to-hand combat.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Mena calmly raised her head, then her eyes widened in surprise. "Are you already imagining what position we'll be in later?"

"..."

“I see,” Mena clapped her hands and nodded. “Open air, in the wild, I didn’t expect that.”

Luo Wei threw a sleeping bag at her face and said, "Go to sleep."

Then he sighed.

"I'll keep watch."

Mena's eyes flickered slightly, and for some reason, a warm feeling welled up in her heart.

　648! 648! 648!
