8.25 - Night Returns (Part )

In fact, everyone in the mission guild is also reluctant to part with Emilia.

In order to allow Emilia to pursue her dream without any worries, they all tried hard not to cry. However, the time of getting off work was too devastating. The staff members finally couldn't bear the moment of the last farewell and burst into tears one after another.

For a moment, the mission union hall was filled with crying.

Branch Chief Oleg, who was working on the second floor, came down upon hearing the noise and burst out laughing at the sight of this bizarre scene.

——(Ah, these young people have such rich emotions.)

Although he said this, in fact, after knowing that Emilia was leaving, Branch Chief Oleg secretly cried several pillows at night.

"Ahem! Stop crying! It would be disgraceful if people outside saw us!"

Branch Chief Oleg knocked on the floor with his cane. Ever since the battle with Spland, his old friend and rival, his body was not as strong as before.

When everyone saw the branch chief coming down, they barely stopped crying, but the feeling of separation still lingered.

After all, Branch Chief Oleg was an experienced person and had guessed that such a scene would happen, so he just revealed the "secret" he had prepared at the right time.

"Everyone, hurry up and pack up. Once you're done, we'll go to the pub on the next street. We're going to give Emilia a grand farewell party tonight!"

No one had expected that the old-fashioned and serious branch chief Oleg would have such a delicate thought. When they thought about drinking and having fun tonight, everyone's sad mood was immediately swept away, and they all cheered!

However, no matter how happy they are now, they will cry sadly when the show ends tonight.

All good things must come to an end. In this Prison Star world where travel is slow and letters are far away, parting often means a farewell forever.

Emilia, surrounded by her drunken companions, watched the rising moon through the window.

She wondered, Is Banning looking at the moon like me now? Has he thought of me after being away for so many days?

·

Coincidentally, Jiang Ran was indeed looking at the moon now. He was thinking that if he really went around in the direction of Sunny Town, it would probably bring big trouble to Emilia and Branch Minister Oleg.

It's okay to cheat others, but it's absolutely not okay to cheat Emilia and Branch Minister Oleg.

Jiang Ran made up his mind and decided to stand on Shirley's side to oppose Branch Chief Pame's plan.

Today, their team was unable to make up their minds and finally decided to rest in this cave for another day, which was just right for the injured personnel to recover from their injuries.

At this moment, everyone has finished dinner and is sitting together one after another. It is a good time to reconnect.

Jiang Ran joined the circle, and without him saying anything, Shirley took the initiative to bring up the topic of the team's next course of action.

Everyone was arguing, and the core point of the debate was still whether they could safely pass through the Pasa Plain and what to do if they were surrounded by werewolves.

"Even if we regain our horses, there's no cover on the plains, and the werewolves are so mobile that it's difficult for us to break out or escape their pursuit. Once they find us, we'll be dead."

Shirley still sticks to her original opinion. She thinks the risk is too great and not worth taking.

Minister Pam did not deny the existence of risks, but she thought it was worth a try.

Because, even if they didn't take a detour to Sunny Town, it didn't mean that they would be safer if they continued to flee north, not to mention staying in this cave and deceiving themselves.

Jiang Ran had no intention of cutting off the rekindled relationship between Branch Chief Pame and Branch Chief Oleg, but for the sake of the overall situation, he had to reveal the key information.

"I'm sorry, everyone. I might be a little late to tell you something. Sunny Town was attacked a while ago, and the town's defenses are very weak. I'm afraid that even if we go to Sunny Town, we won't get any help, and we might even implicate them."

As soon as these words were spoken, the most surprised person present was Branch Chief Pame. She immediately asked worriedly about the losses in Sunny Town. Jiang Ran knew through mind reading that what Branch Chief Pame wanted to ask most was whether Branch Chief Oleg was okay.

So, Jiang Ran took advantage of the situation and appropriately exaggerated the tragic situation after the attack on Sunny Town. Then, everyone gave up the idea of ​​taking a detour to Sunny Town.

Now, everyone had to face the cruel reality again. Before the reinforcements arrived, they had to rely on their own strength to survive for at least half a month.

Speaking of strength, the problem that everyone wants to solve most now is the magic-forbidden state of Ice Star Shirley.

Before Shirley showed these symptoms, no one had heard of this strange poison, so no one had any idea how to detoxify it.

But now that there is no other way, Shirley can only try various detoxifying herbs and purifying herbs to see if she can get lucky and be cured.

While Jiang Ran and the others were resting in the cave, Impati Okami, the son of the werewolf royal family's patriarch, was leading all the troops to track down the two escaped women of the Snow Deer family.

As the thirteenth "youngest son" of the Wolf King, Inpati has been spoiled since childhood, which has led him to develop an arrogant and domineering character.

Unfortunately, because Patty only has an arrogant personality but not the ability to be arrogant, his ranking of 170th in the werewolf royal family means that even though he is the son of the wolf king's patriarch, he often suffers setbacks.

There's nothing he can do about it. He was born into a werewolf clan that values ​​strength.

Frequent defeats made Impati's character even worse, and killing the weak became one of his hobbies.

During the invasion of Dris Town, he ordered the killing of all those who did not escape, regardless of gender, age or status.

When he left with this werewolf army, the former town of Dris had turned into a dead city scattered with corpses.

·

It is now night, and when most creatures fall asleep, werewolves enter the most active state of the day.

The werewolves, who have extremely strong physical fitness, can easily talk while running, and wherever they go is filled with noisy and rough sounds.

Generally speaking, troops on the move should be silent, but Patty's werewolf troops are different. He manages them casually and doesn't care about details like concealment. Instead, the lively atmosphere can make him feel better.

At this moment, Impati heard his subordinates talking about "Medicine Town" and immediately joined in with interest.

"You're right. The guys we sent to Madison Town this time really used up all their luck!"

Impati said this because the troops sent to Medison Town this time were carrying out a "transformation mission."

The so-called conversion mission refers to werewolves attacking humans on a moonlit night, and deliberately sparing their lives after biting them, and then waiting to see how many humans will be converted into werewolves.

For those who have successfully transformed and are willing to submit to the werewolf clan, the werewolf army will take them back to the Farnas Empire. Those who have failed to transform or are unwilling to submit will be killed.

8.26 - Elle vs. Werewolf

━━━━━━━━━━

October 187, 7

〖0:12 am〗

[Confession death countdown remaining: 14 days]

━━━━━━━━━━

The town of Medison is located to the west of the town of Sunny. It is not only the border of the Green Lizard family's territory, but also the border of the Kingdom of West.

The borderlands have never been a peaceful place, and this is especially true for the border with the Farnas Empire.

Since arriving in Medison Town, Wei'er and the Fortune Telling Rabbit Grandma have seen several conflicts of varying sizes every day. At first, they were surprised that the security here was so bad, but after staying there for half a month, they gradually got used to it.

[The text and images above are taken from the chapter "6.17 - Aftermath"]

Perhaps because there are always fights, the pharmaceutical industry here has developed very well, and even a Pharmacists Association has been established - you should know that organizations like the Pharmacists Association are generally only established in cities of the level of Cuilin City.

Wei'er came to Madison with the intention of becoming a pharmacist and soon found a job in the Pharmacists Association.

The pharmacists here are very friendly, just as the fortune-telling rabbit spirit grandmother said, forming a sharp contrast with the trouble-making reward hunters.

Even though Wei'er had no background here, the senior pharmacists were very happy to teach her the knowledge related to developing medicines.

At the beginning, no matter how hard Weier tried, she could never produce the "holy light" like other pharmacists when making potions. But from one day on, she suddenly seemed to have gotten the hang of it, and could successfully create potions that shone with holy light frequently.

The fortune-telling rabbit spirit told Wei'er that this meant that she might have had a "certain manufacturing profession" in the past, and this manufacturing profession has now been replaced by a "pharmacist".

After hearing this, Wei'er suddenly realized what was going on. She tried to pick up the needle and thread to sew clothes, but found that she was not as adept at it as before.

Wei'er was sad to lose her manufacturing profession as a tailor, but she did not regret it because she had decided to become a pharmacist to assist Banning.

Besides, as long as "Sister Ai'er" is still around, the tailoring skills will not be lost.

·

In this way, Wei'er's skills as a pharmacist gradually improved in Medison Town, and at night, sister Elle, who was itching to have sex, would sometimes take the initiative to kill some men with bad intentions, under the pretext of "nipping the evil in the bud."

The days of continuous growth seemed to continue like this, until tonight, when a hooded man wearing a wolf mask appeared in the square where people gathered, carrying the head of the mayor of Medison.

"Thank fate for your favor, humans. Tonight, you will have the opportunity to evolve."

The "wolf-masked man" behaved badly and spoke outrageously, which immediately attracted the siege of the people around him. However, this guy did not seem to want to fight back or escape. He just stood there calmly. Then dozens of werewolves emerged from behind the people and started an indiscriminate "massacre" without mercy.

Wei'er and the fortune-telling rabbit spirit grandmother just watched from a distance at first, thinking that tonight was just a group fight that was louder than usual. But when they saw those burly werewolves through the gaps in the crowd, they immediately realized that tonight would not end as easily as usual.

Sister Ai'er in Wei'er's body wanted to fight, but Wei'er and the fortune-telling rabbit spirit grandma agreed that they had to escape as soon as possible.

In the dark night, they had nowhere to go and had to flee to the suburbs, where they rescued a little girl on the way.

But just when they thought they were safe, they were spotted by a werewolf who was following them.

——(Weier, you have to leave this to me.)

——(No, Sister Ai'er, wait a moment.)

If it were the old Wei'er, she would probably have been scared and handed over control of her body to her sister Ai'er, but the current Wei'er is different.

Wei'er first let the little girl sneak into the bushes and crawl away, while she and the fortune-telling rabbit spirit grandmother used their bodies to cover her.

Then, Wei'er sternly questioned the werewolf who was gradually approaching, without any fear in her voice.

"Who are you? Why are you attacking Madison Town?!"

"Haha, little sister, didn't you hear what the 'Team Leader' said just now? We are here to help you evolve."

After the werewolf said this, he showed his claws, not giving his prey any chance to talk, and charged straight away!

Seeing that communication was impossible, Wei'er quickly drank a bottle of red potion and handed her body over to her sister Ai'er's control at the same time.

——(Sister Ai'er, I've already taken the strength-enhancing potion, but please don't force yourself.)

"Leave it to me, Wei'er!"

In order to protect the fortune-telling rabbit spirit grandmother behind her, Ai'er drew out the two blades at her waist and ran away sideways.

Facing this burly werewolf with almost no armor, Ai'er's idea was not to kill it with one blow, but to wear it down slowly.

As long as she could continue to cut wounds on the opponent, the werewolf would only become weaker and weaker until he was knocked down by Elle.

However, Elle underestimated the werewolf's physical movement ability and the hardness of its claws.

The sprinting werewolf pounced towards Elle without slowing down. Elle had no time to dodge and had to merge the two blades into a pair of scissors and hold them in front of her to block.

With a "clang" sound, Ai'er was knocked back several steps. Even though she had taken a strength-enhancing potion, the werewolf's strength was still far superior to hers. The force of the collision made her hands numb.

"Damn it, what kind of supernatural power...!"

Elle shook her hands to try to get rid of the numbness, but the werewolf didn't give her the chance and pounced on her again!

At the critical moment, Ai'er exerted her strength and used the giant scissors she had assembled to meet the wolf's claws that were swinging down, activated her skill "Sharp Strike" and cut them down!

In an instant, the blade collided violently with the wolf claw, and then, Ai'er's scissors successfully cut off the wolf claw!

However, before she could be happy, she was hit hard in the stomach by a side kick from the werewolf. Her petite body was kicked away in an instant, and even her only weapon, the giant scissors, fell to the ground.

"Hahahaha! Thank you for cutting my nails, little sister!"

The werewolf kicked the giant scissors away viciously, then walked towards Elle with his fangs bared.

Seeing that there was no hope of winning, Ai'er decisively threw a smoke bomb, then picked up the Fortune-telling Rabbit Spirit Grandma and ran as fast as she could.

The sudden smoke did make the werewolf lose his way for a few seconds, but with his keen sense of smell, he immediately found the direction in which the prey escaped.

Ai'er heard the werewolf's footsteps approaching, but she was holding the fortune-telling rabbit spirit grandma and could not move any faster.

The werewolf lunged forward with a wild laugh, waving his other hand, which still had claws, aiming directly at Elle's back...

At this moment, the little girl who should have escaped suddenly jumped out and used her fragile body to block the fatal blow for Ai'er.
