Brahmot warned loudly, but before he finished speaking, his eyes widened.

He saw Elsa slash with two swords, directly cutting off the limbs of the still roaring Filth One, and also cutting off half of the forest behind it.

For a moment, dark blood splattered everywhere and the shrill cry echoed in the forest.

Elsa didn't care about that. She took a step forward and stretched out her hand to grab the Filthy One. The Filthy One seemed to have sensed Elsa's powerful strength. It let out a strange cry, and two arms burst out from its remaining chest. It supported itself on the ground with its hands and suddenly jumped back. It seemed that it was trying to escape, but also seemed to be frightened by Elsa and retreated instinctively.

It stared at Elsa's direction, but there was no trace of Elsa in its eyes - a sharp pain came from behind, and by the time it realized it, Elsa had already stabbed its chest from behind, pinched its spine directly, and threw it to the ground.

boom--

The broken body of the Filthy One created layers of cracks on the ground, crushed several trees, and was covered in black blood.

And Elsa also fell down.

She shook off the spine fragment in her hand and stared at the filthy person in front of her - she had tried her best to control her strength, otherwise she would have killed this guy with one punch.

Elsa wanted to capture a Filthy One alive, so she was very gentle. However, to Elsa's surprise, the Filthy One's vitality was much stronger than she had imagined. It actually stretched out limbs from its torso and even grew wings. Sticky black fleshy tendrils were wriggling at the wound, quickly repairing its wound. Those strange fleshy tendrils were different from the snake-like and earthworm-like things on the black monster. Although they looked similar, their aura was completely different, giving Elsa a sense of déjà vu.

——When I was fighting against the Demon General Tobias, a similar aura appeared.

Elsa frowned slightly, thinking.

She had encountered the Filthy One twice before, but she accidentally killed him, so she didn't feel this kind of aura, but this time it was very obvious.

At this time, the Filth One had recovered its body, but when it saw that Elsa seemed to be thinking about something, it did not even launch a sneak attack, but turned around and ran away. However, at this moment, Elsa's figure appeared in front of it, and she threw a light punch. The sound of breaking air from behind coincided with the explosion in front of it.

puff--

The lower half of its body was cut off directly. It let out a shrill scream, and at the same time, its strong hand reached out to grab Elsa, but was held back by Elsa. Elsa's fingers were embedded in its arm, and with a twist and pull, she twisted its arm off.

The dirty blood dyed the ground black. Elsa turned over in the air and kicked, directly knocking the body of the polluted one upside down to the ground, making a deep dent in the ground.

At this time, Ryan and others, as well as Brahmot, were stunned. Kus was also stunned. He had loosened the weapon in his hand and stared with wide eyes - he could not see Elsa's movements at all. From beginning to end, he saw the black monster startled and flying everywhere, growing limbs from time to time and then being cut off.

The black monster looked difficult to deal with, but in Elsa's hands it was like a toy. It was no longer a child being bullied by an adult, but a small insect from nowhere encountering a dragon.

121. It’s Too Fragile [Part 3]

Everyone watched in amazement as Elsa chopped off the Filthy One's limbs again and again, and pressed the Filthy One into the ground again and again. The Filthy One's screams became weaker and weaker, and finally it could hardly make a sound.

Compared to the others, Ryan, Marvin, and Brahmot all looked more solemn than shocked. They had witnessed Aisha's strength time and again, and while they found it unbelievable, they also felt heavy-hearted at the immense strength and terrifying vitality displayed by the Defiled One.

For Marvin and Ryan, it was their first encounter with the Filth One, and this time they were deeply shocked - the Filth One's strength and terror had obviously exceeded their expectations. Ryan asked himself, if he were to face such a Filth One alone, he would never be able to win easily. Not to mention Elsa, in the entire Dammas Fortress, perhaps only the Sage could destroy it easily. Others would inevitably be in a tough battle, especially since this Filth One had a large number of spider monsters as subordinates, which was even more terrifying.

What's more, there is more than one polluter - this forest is so big, who knows how many more there are?

"Oh my goodness... Mr. Brahmut, have you been fighting against something like this?"

Marvin was more straightforward. He looked at Brahmot with an expression that was difficult to describe in words, and his heart was full of admiration.

After hearing Marvin's praise, Ryan couldn't help but look at Brahmot a few more times.

And Brahmot gave a wry smile.

"No, if I had encountered this one, I would have been doomed."

"You are too modest."

Brahmot shook his head—how could this be considered modesty? He didn't have the leisure to do so.

After all, he was once a gold medal adventurer. His intuition about danger cannot be said to be perfect, but he still has some. The moment he saw the Filthy One, he could feel very clearly that the Filthy One he encountered this time was far more powerful and more ferocious than the one he and Knight Charlie killed. Its tenacious vitality was terrifying. Its limbs were chopped off four or five times by Elsa, but it did not die. Not only did it not die, it was even able to continue fighting and escaping.

He hadn't expected such a terrifying creature to happen upon the ground in the cave he had sealed. If he hadn't blocked it off and let it escape, the consequences would have been disastrous. Brahmout couldn't imagine defeating this filthy creature, and this served as a warning to Brahmout—never underestimate these filthy creatures. Like ordinary monsters, they differed significantly from one another. Some possessed higher intelligence, while others possessed stronger vitality and possessed other unique traits.

The three people had different thoughts. The only thing they were thankful for was that Elsa was here. Even though the Filth One seemed very strong to the three of them, it had no chance of escaping from Elsa.

The trees were falling and breaking, and fragments of flesh and blood soaked the forest like rain, turning the land into a horrible black color. Gusts of wind blew everyone's hair. The huge body of the Filth One had been beaten to pieces by Elsa, and its limbs could no longer grow back. It was dying in Elsa's one hand, looking like a puddle of mud, and it no longer had the strength to escape.

Only then did Aisha finally stop.

"Lian, Marvin, and Brahmot, come over and take a look."

Aisha called out to the stunned people.

Marvin was the first to react. He gripped the staff tightly in his hand and walked forward. It must be said that even with its limbs cut off, the dark body of the Filthy One was still shocking. It was an evil aura that seemed to come from the abyss. When facing the Filthy One, Marvin could feel that every pore in his body was exploding.

"Such a strong malice..."

Marvin held the pastoral staff in his hand and lowered his brows to feel it for a moment, his expression solemn and full of doubts.

"I don't know how to describe this feeling. I could sense a chilling aura when I faced it. Although it looked black, it didn't feel like dark magic or abyssal magic, nor did it feel like a curse. I've never seen anything like it before."

At this time, the Filthy One was being stepped on the ground by Aisha, leaving the three people to watch. The others also looked at this place curiously. Except for a few adventurers from Weilin Town, it was the first time for everyone else to see the Filthy One.

Ryan observed for a moment, then used a dagger to take some blood and flesh tissue.

"Its interior is incredibly crude—I mean, it looks nothing like any other monster. Its structure is incredibly simple. Outside the bones are muscles and meridians, all wrapped in skin. Even its blood vessels are just a section of the aorta that spreads out from the center. It looks like a randomly dug tree root."

Brahmot watched in silence.

Elsa lowered her eyes.

"It looks like it's dying—it's too fragile. I can feel its breath fading rapidly. Is there any way to prolong its life?"

Elsa wanted to capture a filthy one alive and bring it back, but the one in front of her seemed to be about to collapse, which made Elsa very sorry.

"Try using magic cores—we rarely capture monsters alive, but when needed, we feed them magic cores. This is a high-quality food for most monsters."

Brahmute said that as the guild master he had some experience in this area.

The so-called magic core is actually a monster organ produced in the body of a high-level monster. It is also considered to be a magic crystal. It is very precious and is also the essence of the monster. Many monsters will eat this thing, which can enhance their strength.

Bramuth took out a magic core and tried to put it into the mouth of the Defiler, but after waiting for a while, it was of no use.

"Then try using potions—it's the most traditional method, but I don't think it will work."

Marvin suggested, but Ryan had a different opinion.

"I think we can try the blood and corpses of those spiders."

They tried all their ideas, but unfortunately, the Filth One died before they could finish. Its body turned into ashes and dissipated. At the same time, the foul smell in the air also disappeared.

Everyone felt very sorry.

Elsa sniffed and found that there was no smell of black monster in the air. She turned her gaze to Ryan.

"Is the sample you just took still there?"

"No more."

Ryan pulled out the magic-sealed vial, which should have contained some blood and flesh, but it was gone now.

"In this case, there are limits to what we can do."

Ryan sighed, looking very frustrated.

"Don't worry, we still have time, and today is not a complete failure."

Elsa glanced at the sky.

"Let's go to the next place."

Ryan went to collect some more samples of black spiders, and then everyone set off again.

They stopped and started along the way until dusk, when they encountered the black monster again. They chased it for a distance and found the Filth One who controlled it. In the end, Elsa easily captured it. This Filth One was much weaker and its vitality was very fragile. It died shortly after Elsa cut off its limbs, leaving Ryan little time for dissection and research.

"That's all for today, let's go back."

Aisha said - the sky had already darkened.

122. Lend Me a While [Fourth Update]

After a day of investigation, everyone except Aisha looked tired.

After all, people will unconsciously become nervous in a dark and silent environment like a forest. This is an instinctive alertness to dangerous environments. Staying in this tense state for a whole day, while investigating the black monsters that may appear at any time, will make anyone tired.

Especially Ryan and Moira, they are magicians. Although they have a lot of magic and familiars to assist them, their physical strength is still relatively weak compared to the adventurers.

After returning to the town from the forest, everyone gathered together to summarize the day's gains and discoveries.

The captain of the guard who was in charge of the town and Father Angus talked about the situation in the town today.

"Are you saying that black monsters appeared around?"

"Yes, there were about three or four of them, all coming from the plains and heading into the forest. To be honest, they didn't even stop by our place, so we didn't dare to attack rashly, and in the end, we didn't find anything..."

The captain of the guards seemed a little nervous when facing Aisha.

Elsa looked at the old priest.

Angus added, "It was around noon, and I saw a black monster until dusk. As for attacking, I told them not to act rashly."

"Well, that's nothing. Those black monsters can't provide any clues anyway. If we can't find the Filth One, it would be safer to just stay in town."

Elsa was concerned about something else.

"If they first appeared in the afternoon... that was when we were fighting the Filth Ones. I wonder if there's any connection between them."

There were still too few clues, and random guesses would not lead to any conclusion. Everyone discussed for a while and then left.

Ryan and the others had dinner and went back to rest, while Elsa went to the monastery and came back late at night.

When they returned to the town hall, it didn't surprise Elsa to find Charlie waiting for her in front of the room. To be more precise, she looked like she was taking a walk, but in fact she was just wandering in front of Elsa's room, checking to see if Elsa had returned. After seeing Elsa, Charlie immediately ran over honestly, with the joy on her face not concealed at all.

"Elsa... welcome back!"

"You haven't slept yet."

I don’t know if it’s because she swallowed Elsa’s blood yesterday, but Xia Li looks good, the wine red under her eyes is more intense, and her long hair looks a beautiful silver-white in the moonlight.

"Well... because... Father told me to take good care of you since you're an honored guest... or something... and I don't really need sleep anyway."

"Is it really okay to say something like that to my face?"

Faced with Elsa's teasing, Charlie immediately became embarrassed and the smile on her face faded.

Charlie followed Elsa to the front of the room. Elsa pushed open the door and Charlie was standing outside. She was stroking her fingers, looking a little embarrassed, as if she wanted to say something but couldn't open her mouth.

It was Aisha who spoke again: "—Do you want to come in?"

"May I?"

It was obvious that he couldn't wait any longer, and Elsa couldn't help but smile.

"Although it's a bit late, I don't plan to go to bed now."

"Then... excuse me for disturbing you..."

Charlie walked into the room, which was the town hall's guest room. It was neatly decorated and clean, but the furnishings were very simple and there were no chairs to sit in. Charlie's eyes were firmly drawn to Elsa.

Elsa lit the candles and took off her headscarf. Her beautiful golden hair fell down and turned into a beautiful orange-yellow color in the candlelight. Charlie's eyes widened at her.

The air became silent for a moment, and Charlie could almost hear the rubbing of Elsa's clothes and Elsa's breathing - vampires were very sensitive to smells, she could almost smell the faint smell of blood in the room, as well as Elsa's body fragrance, which made Charlie's heart beat inexplicably faster.

Charlie noticed that Elsa took out a black hairband and tied it on.

"Elsa... so beautiful..."

Her voice was very soft, but Aisha still caught it.

Elsa's gaze shifted to Charlie and she smiled. Then, as Charlie's pupils slowly widened, Elsa walked towards her—Elsa's figure blocked the candlelight, and the warm orange color outlined Elsa's cheeks.

Charlie's heartbeat accelerated unconsciously, and she subconsciously closed her eyes tightly.

But the wish that had her heart pounding never came true. She only felt a strand of hair being lifted from her cheek. Cautiously opening her eyes, she was met with Elsa's sparkling eyes. Elsa slowly brushed the hair away from Charlie's temples and leaned over to whisper in her ear. Charlie froze. She could feel Elsa's hair brushing against her cheek, her breath lingering in her nostrils, the warmth and sweetness of Elsa's scent.

At this time, Aisha spoke up: "Speaking of which... there is no hot water in the bathhouse now, right?"

The hot and humid breath poured into Xia Li's cochlea, caressing her earlobe gently. The tingling and electric-like illusion made her gasp unconsciously - the slightly sticky and soft voice seemed to penetrate her skin and pores into her limbs and bones, along the blood vessels, along the spine, climbing up from every inch of skin, and tightly grasping her heart.

"Charlie, can I use the bathroom in your room?"

Aisha asked.
