"boom--!!"
Suddenly, without warning, a deafening roar came from behind Eddie, the violent impact causing her black cloak to flutter wildly.
At my feet, there was splattered bright red blood.
"...?"
To several mages, including Lycorina, time seemed to slow down countless times.
They saw an attack that came from nowhere behind Eddie, smashing the returning heroes into pieces.
The enormous figure, obscured even by smoke and dust, raised its iron bar and swung it horizontally at the ground in front of it—
"Oh!"
Eddie's body instantly exploded into a bloody mist, his head flying off, blood and body tissue splattering onto Lycorina's platinum saintess robes, staining her fair face and long silver hair red...
Eddie is dead.
He died right in front of her.
It was neither spectacular nor did it end tragically.
Like the other heroes behind him, he was like an ant crushed to death, losing his life meaninglessly in a mere instant.
In that instant, Lycorina's mind went blank, and all sound disappeared from her ears...
All sounds are silent.
Chapter 224 Special Ability: Swiftness
"Why didn't I notice...?"
Milu looked at the limbs and flesh that had exploded outside the shield.
Oh no, she noticed.
It was just too late.
She is fast, but she cannot stop time.
She is fast, but that doesn't mean she's fast enough to save everyone just before the attack arrives.
She wasn't a detective-type hero; she still needed to use her eyes and ears to determine the enemy's location.
The moment the attack came into her sight, it was too late to turn back.
There was only one thing she could do—
Save the saintess!
There were several other monks as well.
"boom!!"
Amidst the deafening roar, Goblin King's servant Gordon frowned, looked at the blood splattered all over the ground, and scratched his head.
What about people?
Several mages who should have been within my attack range disappeared in the blink of an eye.
It was supposed to land on those mages, but seeing a group of humans gathered in front of them, it decided to kill them with its shield first.
It hasn't figured out human methods yet, so it prioritizes killing those with large numbers.
As for those mages, its plan was to smash them to death with a single blow the moment it landed.
Strangely, even though he didn't feel any attack on them, they disappeared from his sight.
It disappeared from sight, and was not within attack range.
The other party didn't just take a step back; in the blink of an eye, they retreated to who-knows-where.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!!"
Gordon picked up a stick and began frantically smashing the surrounding houses.
In that very instant, over a dozen messages appeared in the eyes of all the heroes—
[The Eagle Warrior leaves the chat group.]
The Dog Warrior left the chat group.
The Tree Warrior left the chat group.
The hero who smelled it departed...
……
The Axe Hero left the chat group.
What happened?
Why did the dozen or so people who went back to resupply leave the chat group?
Rather, the question is why they left the chat group?
[Hero of the Assassins: Goblin King's Servant Ambush!]
They came down from the mountain on the left.
Almost at the same instant, Miluko's message was sent to the chat group.
All the heroes reacted immediately.
They are dead.
He died in an attack by the Goblin King's servant.
Among them, the warriors responsible for keeping watch on the left side of the mountain were taken aback.
On the mountain to the left...?
Isn't that the area they're monitoring?!
Why did the goblin king's servants enter the city without them noticing?!
Before the heroes could even think, the horde of goblins once again filled their field of vision.
Actually, there's no need to overthink it.
Surrounded by goblins, they were already too busy fighting to pay attention to anything else. Who would dare to look up at the mountain amidst the dense goblin horde?
[The brave one left the chat group.]
The Camel Chariot Warrior left the chat group.
The Scorpion Warrior left the chat group.
In just a brief moment of distraction, several more heroes perished in the goblin siege.
Nine. [The Hero of the Harp leaves the chat group.]
The Hunter left the chat group.
The Weeping Cloud Warrior left the chat group.
Sword Hero: Wait till I kill this Goblin Champion! I'm going to kill it!!
Sword Hero: Then you'd better speed up.
At that moment, the two goblin champions suddenly felt that the human attacks that came out to block their way were even more fierce!
……
"Your Highness... Your Highness..."
A phantom voice echoed in Lycorina's mind, but she didn't hear it.
She felt as if she were walking slowly through a pristine white corridor, with paintings hanging one after another.
Those were images of war that she had experienced all along.
As she looked at them, her eyes widened slightly, and she quickened her pace, eventually running down the corridor, the paintings flashing past her eyes.
Dead humans, dead demons, dead humans, dead demons, dead humans, dead demons, dead humans, dead demons!
Damaged buildings.
Demon architecture, human architecture, demon architecture, human architecture, demon architecture, human architecture, demon architecture, human architecture!
Demon blood, human blood, demon blood, human blood, demon blood, human blood, demon blood, human blood!
"Oh!"
A painting suddenly exploded, splattering a large amount of blood onto Lycorina. The violent impact slammed her against the wall and caused her to fall to the ground. Blood instantly filled the entire pure white corridor, as if she had been plunged into a blood-red hell.
The scene has changed.
She returned to the town she had just been in, only to find everything before her covered in a layer of blood.
莉牭∩1…>粶∽♀七≥○玐∠±齡腫ｚHＵAnQＵN: Corina stood in place, looking up at the giant goblin that had suddenly appeared, then shifting her gaze to the side, where Eddie's head had been tossed aside; Eddie had been talking to her just half a second before.
She moved on.
Behind the Goblin King's servant, on the ground lay the remains of heroes shattered by a giant shield.
Standing together, supporting each other, none of them survived; they all died in the sudden attack.
Lycorina felt no fear, no anger, no sadness, and she didn't even feel her own existence.
Like an emotionless observer, watching everything unfold before their eyes.
Then, she slowly walked towards the outskirts of the city.
As she walked past heroes and goblins, she suddenly stopped.
Her gaze settled on the head of a goblin.
A severed head, tossed into the air.
Continuing forward, she stood before the city gate, staring at the ground.
Perhaps the other heroes didn't even notice.
The ground here was a bloody mess, and countless goblins walked in stepping over the broken corpses of their kin.
"what……"
