Chapter 27
Merromager Kingdom, outside the royal capital
"asshole! Where on earth are you planning to take me!"
In the prison van with dozens of soldiers rhyming, Iwatani Naofumi roared at the nearest escorting soldiers, but those soldiers turned a deaf ear and went about their own escort missions.
「hateful! What on earth does that bastard king want to do!"
After many attempts to no avail, Iwatani Naofumi no longer wasted his energy. He sat in the prison car and frantically thought about ways to escape.
He always felt that if he just let the other party do what he did, he might not have any good results in the end.
But after much deliberation, he couldn't think of a useful way.
Not to mention whether he could deal with the entire escort team, just breaking the prison car imprisoning him would be a big trouble.
Because it seems to be specially used to imprison people with special abilities.
In fact.
Iwatani Naofumi's intuition was not wrong. The final mission of the team that escorted him out of the country... was to send him back to the west completely in a deserted place.
Although the whole thing was done very strictly, what was announced to the outside world was only that the sinful Shield Hero was expelled from the Melomag Kingdom and paraded through the streets in a special prison car.
But the real conspiracy of Otto Cree Melomag 32 could not escape the actual ruler of the kingdom, Queen Mirelia.·Q·The surveillance of"Shadow", Merromager's eyeliner. to this end.
Even if she was wiping the butt of Otto Cree Melomag 32 while far away from home, Mirelia·Q·Melomag still uses remote communication magic, and Shadow must rescue the Shield Hero and escort her to leave Melomag temporarily until she returns to the royal capital. now.
In the jungle several hundred meters behind the escort team, a dozen figures in black clothes and veils covering their faces shuttled between the treetops, pursuing the escort team at extremely fast speeds.
But... suddenly!
On the path of this group of"shadows", a figure wearing a black dress quietly appeared, blocking their way.
Although these people all have their faces covered, it is not difficult to tell from their figures that they are all women.
The moment he saw Lu Ji, the leader's"shadow" pupils shrank suddenly, and immediately reminded him in a low voice:
"Don't look him in the eye!"
While speaking.
She hurriedly avoided meeting Lu Ji's gaze and hid behind the trunk of a big tree nearby. The same was true for the other members of"Shadow".
「As expected of the kingdom's elite espionage organization, it was able to analyze the weakness of the Magic Eye of Charm through clues."
Lu Ji admired"Shadow"’s intelligence capabilities very much.
"Sir, what do you mean?"Behind the tree trunk, a mature woman's questioning voice came.
Judging from the behavior of not daring to show up at all, they were very afraid of Lu Ji. They should obviously know what happened in the palace yesterday.
With a chuckle, Lu Ji He replied calmly:
"Don't be nervous, I just want to invite you ladies to watch the show together. I don't know if you have the honor."
After a moment of silence, the woman's voice behind the tree became a little colder.
"You want to stop us from rescuing the Shield Hero?!"
Obviously, she heard the underlying message.
"Well... you can understand it this way."
Lu Ji does not deny that
"If this is the case, then it is offending!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there were immediately several flames, ice arrows, water columns, wind blades, mixed with various attacks such as darts, all attacking Lu Ji from different directions.
As for those hidden weapons, he Not surprised, but on the contrary, I am very curious about the attacks with various attributes.
「Are these magic attacks?」
《There are similar magic methods in the world of"Blood-Eating Raid", but the last time he arrived at Genkami Island, he was sent to the"Prison Barrier" by the hateful legal lolita, which gave him no chance to see anything other than space control magic. ability.
Although Lu Ji felt that these magical attacks did not pose much of a threat to him due to the powerful recovery ability of vampires, he did not have any choice to contact them head-on.
Although from what he saw so far, the world seemed very ordinary.
But he knows the plot very well, and this world is not simple either. after all.
There are"gods" here, as well as beings powerful enough to destroy the world.
The strength of the"shadow" members in front of him may not be enough to put him under pressure, but in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Lu Ji did not want to have too much contact with them.
He pulled out a card from the void and crushed it. He put his index and middle fingers together, crossed his hands, and chanted in a low voice.
"Multiple… Shadow Clone Technique."
The next moment.
Thousands of Lu Ji appeared out of thin air and filled the entire forest nearby.
Seeing this scene, the"shadows" hiding in the dark widened their eyes and did not even react. When I came over, I was suddenly surrounded.
"Since you don't want to reward me, I'll leave them here to entertain you."
Throwing these words, Lu Ji turned around and chased the escort team in front.
He didn't want Naofumi Iwatani to be killed just because he was a few minutes late.
You must know that once the group system invitation is sent, it will automatically bind him. Once the target is determined, there is no way to reselect it twice.
But at this moment……
【System prompt:"Naofumi Iwatani" has joined this group. ]
Lu Ji, who was walking through the forest, paused, and his eyes fell on the system panel that suddenly popped up, and what was displayed above was Naofumi Iwatani’s group entry prompt.
"Uh...did I waste a consumption card?"
Less than a minute ago, he used the"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique" that he exchanged from the group leader's shop, in order to prevent the"shadow" from rescuing Iwatani Naofumi before he entered the group. As a result, the opponent entered so quickly. Group, his"Multiple Shadow Clone Technique" has not expired yet.……
"Forget it... Since I wasted it on you, let’s take back double it from you."
At the same time, one mile ahead.
Naofumi Iwatani, who was feeling increasingly uneasy in the prison car, opened the invitation letter, and an interface window popped up in front of him. Looking at the somewhat familiar window, he murmured in astonishment:
"L…LINE?!"
Although there are some differences in details, the frame structure cannot be said to be very similar, it is simply the same!
While he was dazed, someone actually spoke in the chat box.
【Meng'er】:"Alas! There is a new member!"
【Meng'er】:"Hello, my name is Meng'er"
【Meng'er】:"These are some things I have just compiled to know about joining the group. You can take a look at it first. If you don’t understand anything, you can ask me directly!"
【Meng'er】:"Remember to ask me!"@哩谷 Naofumi" stared at the chat interface for a long time, and then Iwatani Naofumi came back to his senses.
「This...could this be done by other time travellers?"
His first reaction was that this chat group was most likely created by time travelers like him.
After all, the interface is so similar to LINE!
If the other party is not a time traveler, then it makes no sense at all!
