But, that's all.

"call..."

The old orc was in very bad physical condition, probably due to excessive bleeding. His face was pale and even his breathing became weak.

"There's no time. We have to get her to the hospital."

"give it to me."

With Ziyin's help, Weilai carried the old orc on his back, and the two prepared to leave the convenience store and rush to the hospital.

"You are magical girls, but you waste your time saving the demons. Young people these days are really hard to understand..."

As soon as they came out of the kitchen, they heard Mochi's complaining voice, urging them:

"Hurry up, I can't hold on any longer!"

It used its ability, "Angel Egg," to form a hard white cocoon, and used its strength to hold up the collapsing building, its face turning red from holding it in.

"Master Guardian Beast, hold on a little longer!"

Weilai carried the old orc on his back, kicked the crumbling iron gate away, and ran out of the store with Ziyin.

"Boom——"

The moment everyone left, Mochi also released the magic, and the house instantly lost its support and collapsed, stirring up yellowish dust.

The convenience store that holds so many memories has collapsed, and everything is buried under the rubble. It feels like a nightmare and very unreal.

but...

Only after leaving the convenience store did they truly realize...the world outside the convenience store was the real nightmare.

"Phew, luckily I'm awesome."

Just when Mochi was about to feel smug...

“Aa ...

A sharp, piercing scream pierced the eardrums.

Countless dark shadows passed by them in the dust and mist, like looming ghosts. There was even the sound of a crying girl looking for her mother. Their hearing was filled with fear and despair, as if they were caught up in a scroll of hell.

"Ahem, ahem, what on earth... ahem, what happened..."

Ziyin was choked by the dust that was blown up. The visibility around her was extremely low, and she could hardly open her eyes.

"Anyway, let's go to the hospital."

The most important thing now is to treat the old orc's wound. In the future, we will rely on extremely low visibility and advance slowly while avoiding humans.

at this time...

"boom--"

The ground shook again, and the whole world was shaking.

However, compared with the first time, this tremor was obviously much weaker, and the epicenter seemed to be farther away.

but...

The wind and waves created by the explosion blew away the dust on the street, and the veil that obscured the view completely disappeared.

And what appeared before their eyes in the future was...

"boat"

Huge ironclad ships pierced the surface of the city like tombstones, like gods looking down on ants, mysterious and dignified.

This phenomenon has another more widely known name, which is... "falling iron".

Judging from the position of the nearest "falling iron", the huge impact that made them dizzy just now was most likely caused by the impact of the ship falling to the ground.

"How can this be...."

Looking at the ship not far away, Wei Li discovered a detail that made her terrified when she thought about it carefully. It was a loophole in the legend of "falling iron".

She vaguely remembered that according to the legend, the so-called "Falling Iron" was originally a weapon used by humans during the Human-Demon War, but was sealed in another dimension by the Demon King. It only reappeared in the world after the Demon King's death.

But, if that's the case, these ships should be very old, but the "fallen iron" in front of me...

It was so new it was creepy.

The air raid sirens sounded.

Thick smoke filled the city, explosions were deafening, houses collapsed one after another, and black smoke polluted the blue sky.

On the streets, on those visible electronic screens, large, blood-red characters were written—

"Emergency, please go to the underground shelter immediately!! Emergency..."

The "peace" in this city is being ruthlessly shattered.

what happened?

Why did so much "falling iron" fall from the sky without any warning?

Why is it at this time...

The seniors haven't come back yet...

Could it be that these two things are related?

Who is the enemy?

There are still many things that have not been figured out, but... there is no time to think about it now.

“Boom—”

A deafening explosion.

The ground not far away was hit by "falling iron" again, and the million-ton ironclad ship crashed directly into the city. They staggered for several steps and almost lost their balance.

"Uh..."

The old orc's condition was not optimistic. The bandaged wound seemed to have split open, and blood had stained the bandage red.

The "falling iron" was like a giant's footprint, falling indiscriminately on the city above, crushing the insignificant women like ants.

"Ziyin, Lord Guardian Beast, let's go to the shelter. There should be a doctor there too."

There was no point in continuing to go to the hospital.

Now, the only way to be safe is to go to the underground shelter. If you continue to stay on the ground, you may be crushed by the "falling iron" at any time.

"I-I understand, let's go!"

"hurry up!"

Ziyin and Mochi nodded, agreeing to the proposal.

"Rapid footsteps"

They followed the rushing crowd, traveling through the city, and saw scenes of devastation after the disaster.

Until this morning, everyone was in a peaceful atmosphere.

Office workers work hard and struggle for daily necessities, students go to campus and worry about the questions on the blackboard, but now... everyone may have to face the true separation of life and death.

"Where on earth is it..."

As he ran, he realized something was wrong.

The group of demons they followed had become increasingly scarce after being diverted to other paths several times, and their numbers were still decreasing sharply.

Gradually, there were less than ten people around. Looking at the increasingly quiet streets around, an uneasy premonition spread in his chest.

Could it be that we are lost?

"Please, please!"

There is no time to waste.

Mirai quickened his pace and ran forward, preparing to go to the front of the crowd to ask if the route was correct.

But at this moment...

「Click」

A cold mechanical sound.

At the end of the road, a strange figure appeared.

Is this another group of refugees?

wrong...

It didn't look like he was fleeing at all. He stood there motionless, as if waiting for something.

On the ground, several demons were lying in a mess, with bright red blood oozing from their bodies and filling the gaps in the floor tiles.

A gust of wind blew.

The suffocating smell of blood and the lingering stench of gunpowder smoke make people shudder.

“Beep—”

The strange mechanical sound rang out again.

Seeing the strange black cloth wrapped around the group of "people" and the cold guns in their hands, Wei quickly stopped and shouted:

“Run away…!”

But, it's too late...

The demons heard the voice of the future and turned to look at her with doubtful eyes. In the next moment...

Flames burst forth.

The sound of gunfire echoed in the streets, chaotic and disorderly.

Wei witnessed with his own eyes the bullets piercing through the demon's body and coming out from the other side, leaving behind bright red blood beads. The pairs of eyes that originally contained souls turned into emptiness and nothingness.

The demons fell.

They may not even know what happened before the bullet has penetrated their bodies and taken their lives.

"what..."

This was the first time Mirai had witnessed death.

She had encountered several crises before, but because of Ye Shi's existence, no real death had ever occurred.

But now...

The demons in front of him were truly dead.

It cannot be recovered or saved, and the once vibrant life has withered away.

Even more incredible is...

The "person" who killed them actually knew Mirai.

That was the "miscellaneous soldier" she had met when she first came to the Demon Realm.

Those "humanoid mechanical soldiers" believed to be the Demon King's army.

why...

what is this?

Why would the devil's army kill the demons? Aren't they the devil's people?

I always feel that there are many important things...

From the beginning, it was wrong.

“Da da da—”

The black-clad soldiers followed orders, pouring bullets on any approaching creature, with cold lights in their pupils, devoid of any emotion.

Soon, the magazine was empty and there was a sound of firing pin.

To their surprise, things did not go as smoothly as the data had predicted.
