Chapter 140 Lucky Lizard
Darkness's dawdling in dealing with the running lizards greatly displeased Aqua. According to Aqua, with her blessing, any experienced adventurer, even if not a high-level one, could deal with a group of running lizards much faster than Darkness.
"Please, please give me another chance to perform!"
Darkness was really going all out to be hit again. Her clothes were tattered from being trampled by a group of running lizards, but she still clung to Aqua's leg, hoping that the high priestess could heal her.
"Really? You can do even better than before?"
Aqua looked at the knight girl on the ground who was clinging to her leg and asked suspiciously.
"Of course, as long as I don't use a sword, there won't be a problem. My hand-to-hand combat skills are quite impressive."
Aqua didn't want to agree to Darkness's request, but after failing to break free from Darkness's entanglement, she admitted that Darkness was right about her martial arts skills.
At least, in her relentless pursuit of a performance, this female crusader did demonstrate her impressive ground-based entanglement skills.
Unfortunately, with her M-attribute flaws manifesting, Darkness ultimately went from having the upper hand in attracting new monsters and dealing with the new swarm of running lizards to being at a disadvantage.
"Broly, take care of them."
Aqua gave the order, and within ten seconds, a group of running lizards that had been lured over followed in the footsteps of the previous group of running lizards who had already left this world, their heads bursting open and they falling to the ground.
"Prepare to die, watch me strangle you... uh~"
Darkness tightly wrapped her arms around the neck of a running lizard. She clearly had the strength to snap the lizard's neck, but in order to get the other lizards around her to come to the rescue of their leader, she deliberately did not quickly end the entanglement.
Darkness was somewhat taken aback when Broly made his move, seeing the lizards running around her instantly killed by the boy.
"Do you need me to help you solve it?"
Broly pointed to the large lizard in Darkness's arms and asked.
Running Lizard: "..."
At this moment, it recalled the massacre that had appeared on the plains many days earlier, specifically targeting its neighboring giant frog clan.
At the time, since it was none of their business with the running lizards, they kept a distance. After discovering a strong smell of blood wafting from the giant frog's territory, they took a long detour to avoid it.
Unexpectedly, after many days, the vanished killer reappeared, and this time the target seemed to be not the giant frog, but the running lizards.
Unfortunately, none of the lizards stood up for the giant frog back then, and this time no other monsters came to their aid.
"Broly, can I keep it?"
However, to the running lizard's surprise, the female knight who had been fighting him for so long spoke up for him at this moment.
"I want to further hone my fighting skills."
It was a rather flimsy reason, but Broly believed it.
"As I said, we should take care of the monster we're supposed to defeat."
Aqua complained, casually purifying the magical factors that made it easier for undead to be born from the deaths of many lives in the same place.
This was truly an operation that exterminated the vengeful spirit of the running lizard, making even the surviving running lizards somewhat afraid.
Broly and Aqua, the master-disciple duo, are a professional team that provides a one-stop service for the death and funeral of monsters.
No monster could escape the Saiyans' pursuit on the plains, nor could any vengeful spirit escape the purification of the enhanced purification magic of the goddess Aqua.
Even the last remaining corpses, unless they were inedible, would be taken back by Broly and eaten to their fullest extent, without wasting a single bit.
But today was an exception. Broly let go of the giant lizard that Darkness was protecting. After letting Darkness and the giant lizard go play on the side, the task of clearing the running lizard was officially carried out.
With Aqua's use of the "Monster Summoning Fireworks" to start the battle, all the monsters within a one-kilometer radius that could see the magical "Monster Summoning Fireworks" swarmed towards this direction.
Broly showed no mercy. After a large horde of monsters arrived, he didn't care whether they were running lizards or not. He attacked them one by one, and two by two, at an incredibly high speed.
Compared to Darkness's dawdling when dealing with a group of lizards, Broly was a clean and efficient slaughtering machine when it came to eliminating monsters. Soon, the monster corpses piled up, turning the small pile of corpses into a small mound of corpses.
. . . .
Before we knew it, dusk had fallen.
"Little Ga, after you leave here, don't go near human cities. There are many adventurers near human cities, so it's a dangerous place. You should go to the deserted wilderness instead; that's where you running lizards live."
Darkness, with tears in her eyes, bid farewell to the giant lizard she had fought all day under the twilight.
"Gagaga~"
The giant lizard seemed to sense Darkness's kindness, and after running away, it let out a series of cawing sounds, as if thanking Darkness for letting it escape the clutches of the killer.
Look at the long shadows of the pile of corpses cast by the setting sun, and smell the thick stench of blood all around. The Slaughterer has killed so many of the monsters that were attracted to it that even monster-luring skills can no longer attract new monsters.
How lucky it is to have survived! It's just that being a monster means it can't be favored by the goddess, otherwise the running lizard might have thought it was blessed by the goddess of fortune.
"Little Ga, I'll miss you, I'll miss your kicks, I'll miss your tackles, I'll miss your sweeps... uh~"
Darkness fell silent. The running lizard, which had been running away in the setting sun, was suddenly caught by a large bird-like monster that descended from the sky.
Broly could clearly see that the giant bird-like monster's claws easily pierced through the running lizard's body.
The dangerous giant bird-like monster was drawn by the smell of blood, but dared not approach Broly's hunting grounds, because any of its kind that dared to go near had already been dealt with by Broly.
It would linger around, only attacking when it spotted a small, weak prey, and then quickly flee.
"Alas, this is the cruelty of nature. Please accept my condolences."
The sudden turn of events almost made Aqua burst out laughing, but the goddess held back, put on a stern face, patted Darkness on the shoulder, and offered a word of comfort.
"Waaaaah, my little Gaa~"
Darkness was truly heartbroken. The running lizard that had spent the whole day with her and trained with her in grappling had been brutally killed by the bird-like monster.
"Whoosh~"
As soon as he finished speaking, Broly disappeared from the side.
The next moment, the bird-like monster that had flown away had its neck snapped.
Broly brought them back, birds and lizards together.
"This lizard isn't dead yet, Master Aqua. Could you please help treat it?"
Broly pleaded.
"Why would I cast a healing spell on a monster?"
Aqua complained, but still doted on her disciple, and cast a healing spell on the dying running lizard.
"Darkness, don't be sad. With Master Aqua here, the lizard you named won't die easily."
Watching helplessly as the dying lizard was pulled back from the brink of death by a simple and unadorned healing spell, Darkness seemed to realize at that moment the true significance of her friendship with Broly.
That's truly a case of striking when the time is right. Broly's combat power is incredibly strong, and he also has his supportive master backing him up.
"Broly, Aqua, thank you~"
Darkness expressed her sincere gratitude.
"We're all family, no need for thanks."
Aqua felt a little embarrassed. She had been somewhat gloating just now, wanting to see her disciple's wife make a fool of herself.
"Yes, we're all family."
Broly nodded in agreement with Aqua's words. Aqua and Darkness were both his wives, so it was no exaggeration to say they were family.
