The villain's goal is to save the heroine

Thinking that he might become like this one day, Lin En's heart couldn't help but twitch. It was really a blow to his desire from the bottom of his heart!

Facing such a monster, Lin En was unwilling to even chop it. He attached magic power to the branches of the sacred tree and threw it directly, instantly knocking the oncoming monster away and nailing it to the tree. Then...

"Pfft!"

The infinite growth property of the "Sacred Tree" exploded in the body of the "Human-Faced Spider". The poor monster didn't even have the chance to let out a final hiss, and was directly transformed into a hedgehog!

Obviously, although this thing looks scary, it is just an ordinary "human-faced spider" after all, and its level cannot be higher than level 50, so even if it is attacked by surprise, it can only be easily killed.

I was just unlucky. Even though I was walking behind, I was still the target first...!

But at this moment...

"That's very strange, Claire. We were walking in front and were not attacked, but the people who fell behind were ambushed. What's going on?" Renata's voice sounded in surprise.

Moreover, she was "quite surprised" very well. It couldn't be said to be sarcastic, but if it was said that she was discussing, her voice would seem a bit sharp. I don't know if she had done special temperature control training, which made people want to get angry but couldn't.

but…

"Be careful, Sister Renata. As far as I know, monsters like the 'Human-Faced Spider' may hunt in groups. I paid special attention to the monster just now and found that its level was not high and its magic strength was only 42. I think it is unlikely that there is only one monster in a place like this at the doorstep." Claire just said so.

Chapter 436 Nicole's Tooth Marks

Claire miraculously did not respond to Renata's words, but directly returned to the current situation and made a serious analysis.

This is of course true, but at this moment, it can also well demonstrate the subtle relationship between him and Lin En.

It's true that Claire's previous angry attack on Lynn was based on Vivian, but the attack wasn't the scary thing. The scary thing was that, apart from nearly killing Vivian, he gained nothing at all...

Of course he hated Lynn!

However, he no longer had any reason to fight with Lin En...

Vivian had already proved with her life that his motives were a joke. At the same time, his foundation was only level 50. If he insisted on fighting Lin En to the death, it would mean that he would have to use the "Sword of Destruction" countless times, and the cost was too high.

Since it is not easy to take action, the next thing to consider is how to get along with each other.

In any case, the "Sword of Destruction" does not belong to his power at all. The more people know about this thing, the more disadvantageous it will be for him, so Lin En is willing to remain silent, and he naturally does not want to provoke the other party.

This is also the reason why Claire ignored Lynn along the way.

Lin En certainly wouldn't provoke Claire, and didn't respond to Renata's words. He simply urged, "Stop talking nonsense, Miss Renata, and don't waste your time. If you're planning on slacking off, I suggest you return now."

"you…!"

Renata was naturally very unhappy to be taught a lesson by Lin En. Her expression twisted instantly, but she did not argue with Lin En. Instead, she left the main road and walked directly into the depths of the dense forest.

"Tsk! Since Teacher Lin En doesn't want to waste time, then we should go straight to the deepest part. Regardless, whether it's a nest or a lord-level monster, they will definitely be on the side of the Yuyue Mountains!"

"Eh? Are we just going in like this? Aren't we going to check the road first?"

It was Claire who asked the question.

In any case, purifying the "Poison Thorn Forest" is just a side job, and going to Porto is the main thing. Claire has a clear distinction between the primary and the secondary.

"It's okay, we can check it again when we come back!" Renata turned her head and said sternly with her eyes squinted.

Obviously, this girl with glasses has a strong personality. Being questioned by Lynn was like being humiliated. She turned hostile without hesitation. Even Claire didn't respond well to her at all...

This kind of woman really needs education!

Unfortunately, there is no content in the game about this guy going into the sea. Instead, he escaped "with great difficulty" and became the person who informed the protagonist group after the rebellion broke out.

but…

The panel does not appear.

Theoretically, the tip-off should be an important role, but there is no panel. This seems to prove from the side that Noel's rebellion was the result of the eldest princess's deliberate indulgence!

Renata didn't escape with difficulty; she was well prepared. Even if it had been someone else, the impact wouldn't have been that great...

What a lucky woman!

Lin En followed with an expressionless face, mentally pondering how to teach the other person a lesson. But then a strong sense of alarm surged in his heart. He looked up suddenly and saw two terrifying giant spiders hanging upside down above him. The same moment he looked up, they swooped down from the tree!

How is this going?

Lin En was puzzled for a moment and was about to take action to solve it, but...

"Pyroblast!"

Before he could move, Renata's low roar suddenly rang out from the side. Two inconspicuous fireballs flew accurately towards the "human-faced spiders" that came one after another, but exploded instantly after contact. The power was amazing, and it bloomed like fireworks. The two monsters did not even have the chance to make a final hiss before they turned into pieces. Lin En quickly dodged, and then there was charred rotten flesh everywhere.

Lin En couldn't help but glance at Renata, but saw that she was calmly pushing her eyes and said coldly:

"Don't waste time, move on quickly!"

There is no doubt that this woman did it on purpose.

Many people around the eldest princess look down on Noel. Whether it's Osmond or Lynn, they all want to kill them all to pave the way for the eldest princess!

But we can't turn against each other now, so this kind of revengeful behavior with a show of force is easy to understand.

But that's not the point.

You know, Lin En followed the footsteps of Renata and Claire. The two were in front and he was behind, but the monsters did not attack them. Instead, they quickly launched an attack as soon as he arrived. Why is that?

Is it just a coincidence of time brought about by awakening?

Lin En felt that something was wrong, but Renata and Claire had already quickened their pace, so he could only close the distance and move closer quickly.

Obviously, if there was a delay in the awakening of these monsters, then if he and these two got together, a head-on attack would theoretically be impossible, but...

But in fact, it's not.

There are monsters that attack head-on, monsters that stalk and attack, and monsters that suddenly appear from the flank...!

Although the attacks from all directions could more or less cover up the delay just now, judging from the way the monsters were locking onto him, Lin En could conclude that these monsters were coming for him!

"Something seems to be wrong..." Claire is not weak in other aspects except for her low emotional intelligence, and she noticed the abnormality very quickly.

"What's wrong?" Renata asked as she casually threw out a "Fire Explosion".

Although this woman was strictly a "scholar", her magical ability was not bad either. With her superior level and skills, she could easily clear out the monsters.

"There are too many of them. Although the 'human-faced spiders' will hunt in groups, they don't hunt on a large scale. Since we killed the first 'human-faced spider', there are now no less than ten of them. But the situation has not only not improved, the noise nearby has become louder and louder. This is very unreasonable!" Claire explained patiently.

But Renata didn't mind: "Isn't that perfect? ​​They are all easy things to do, so we can solve them together. It won't affect our actions anyway."

But Claire shook her head: "No, I mean... Sister Renata, do you have a feeling that since a while ago, it seems that monsters are constantly gathering towards us, but their target seems to be neither you nor me..."

These words made Renata stop in her tracks, turned around, and asked with a somewhat ugly expression:

"What does it mean?"

But Claire didn't say anything, just looked at Lynn.

The meaning couldn't be more obvious. Apparently, Claire suspected that Lynn had deliberately gathered all the monsters here!

This situation is very strange, so we have to be on guard.

"Hey, what on earth have you done?!" Renata's expression quickly turned cold.

In any case, Lin En's position is different from theirs. The weak trust relationship will make this unusual thing full of conspiracy, and naturally they will be on guard immediately!

However, the truth was, Lynn had no clue about the matter either.

He was actually the most vigilant, so he was surprised by the attack of the "human-faced spider" at the beginning. The rest of the journey was nothing more than proving his guess!

only…

Why is this monster targeting him specifically?

Where was the anomaly at the beginning?

Is it...

Lin En suddenly thought of something, quickly pulled up his sleeves to take a look, and found that a strange mark had been carved on his arm at some point!

and many more!

This tooth mark...

Chapter 437: Scripted Attack

Recalling what happened last night, Lin En instantly understood the origin of the mark on his arm.

At that time, he just thought that the girl was overly emotional, but now it seems that it was intentional behavior.

Lin En couldn't understand the complicated spell, but judging from the monster's reaction, it was undoubtedly a taunt, which must be something that attracted hatred.

Are they trying to kill him with the sheer number of monsters?

Lin En glanced at Renata, but wasn't angry. He just chuckled and said, "That's harsh. I didn't do anything... But this is good. If they only attack me, you can move freely... So, let's part ways here. I'll lead the monsters away, and you can continue to go deeper. How about that?"

Obviously, if possible, Lin En didn't want to participate in this operation, but...

"not so good!"

Renata's eyes narrowed, and she refused almost immediately:

"Lynn Noel, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You said you wanted to lure the monster away, but who knows where you'll lead it? Will you be held responsible if the mission fails?!"

Renata was quite clever, I had to admit. As the saying goes, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. Since Nicole had dared to cast such a rune on him, he could simply lure the spiders back. Then, all he had to do was bring Yu and head into the "Sacred Tree Space." Whatever happened would have nothing to do with him.

But since Renata had already noticed something, Lin En could only throw up his hands and say, "Is that so? Then what do you think we should do?"

Renata then shouted in a commanding tone, "Remove the taunt! There's no need for us to get entangled with these low-level monsters. Don't waste time!!"

"This is not something I can decide." Lynn did not intend to explain to the other party.

"Stop being so mysterious!" Renata started with a harsh tone. "Don't think I'm easy to fool. I'm not discussing this with you, but I'm giving you a responsible order for this operation! If you continue to let it go, don't blame me for suspecting you of ulterior motives!"

"You can doubt me if you want, but you don't need to greet me."

"you…!"

Lin En's tone obviously irritated Renata. She was about to say something harsh when Claire next to her suddenly issued a warning:

"Sister Renata, something's wrong! Our vision is getting darker, and the noises are increasing. We might be surrounded by a large number of monsters!"

In fact, Claire didn't need to emphasize this specifically. After all, it was only around four or five in the afternoon. Considering the weather in August and September, the sky should be very bright at this time. But they just stood there, and the light dimmed visibly, as if the sky was covered!

Not only that, the crawling sounds coming from all around are also getting more intense. The density makes it easy to imagine the terrible scenes in the shadows. It must be like ants in a frying pan, crawling in the dark, making people feel sick.

Claire probably didn't want to escalate the conflict, so she took out a few "fire seeds" from her arms, injected them with magic power, and threw them into the sky...

"!"

"!"

"!"

The horrific sight makes people feel cold in their hearts.

The tall tree trunks and treetops around were densely covered with spiders, as if this was the monster's lair. Everywhere you looked, your vision was almost filled with spiders covered with steel hair and red eyes reflecting light, as if they were crawling all over your face, giving you goosebumps!

and…

At the end of the light of the "fire", you can see monsters constantly coming from a distance. In just a short period of time, hundreds of them have gathered!

"…whispering sound!"

Renata suppressed her fear and bit her lip in resentment. Then, she unleashed a huge amount of magic power as if it were free. A preliminary magic circle formed on the ground, enclosing the three of them. Then, like the rings of a tree trunk, it expanded outward layer by layer, starting with a radius of three meters, then six, nine, twelve...

The scope is a bit too extreme.

Fear can make people lose their rationality. What supported Renata to react quickly was not calmness, but the panic of being targeted by the dirty creature. With such a range, I'm afraid the blue bar will be exhausted after one shot!

Claire also noticed the situation, and he wanted to stop it, but Renata had already taken action first...

"Fire Dance Storm!"

With a loud shout, the magic circle also emitted a dazzling light, and then one could see a flash of fire suddenly shooting straight into the sky in the vast "Poison Thorn Forest". It was initially thought to be an explosion, but then it roared into a storm, and the flames formed a tornado, almost uprooting the giant trees nearby, and directly burning out a vacuum zone!

Such a commotion was so loud that anyone near the Poison Thorn Forest couldn't have missed it. Nicole, who remained in the camp, immediately revealed a hint of amusement. Novia, who was not far from the scene, had a stern look in his eyes and immediately looked aside and said:

"Bishop Seaberg, Lady Renata must have found her target by making such a big commotion. Please allow me to go and provide support!"

Seaberg was not surprised and nodded quickly: "Miss Novia, please be careful."

The process was very smooth, as if it had been premeditated.

However, Lin En didn't know about this. He still stood there, and was a little surprised that Renata also protected him in the magic protection range.
