"teacher!"
Ronan walked across the living room, staggered, and almost threw himself in front of Dean. He looked up with a panic on his face. Before he could say what happened, he was pulled up and pushed onto the sofa.
"calm down."
Dean patted the student's shoulder, then turned his head and continued to give Inna the task.
Looking at his calm back, Ronan seemed to have found his backbone and gradually calmed down. His originally chaotic brain also resumed functioning.
Just now, the barrier that had been surrounding the breeding house was broken.
Ronan was near the barrier at the time and clearly felt the energy-shattering fluctuations. It was obviously not a "retraction" under normal circumstances, but more like a sudden accident. Even if he hadn't reacted in time and used his mental power to protect him, If the magic pets live nearby, the energy impact caused by the broken barrier will cause considerable harm to the magic pets.
This cannot be an active act.
So the apprentice who knew the movements of the demon pet immediately realized what it meant.
Obviously, something must have happened to the box, and it must have been affected in some way, so it couldn't even maintain the barrier.
What about... Lucy who left with it?
Ronan didn't dare to think too much. The terrible result just appeared in his mind for a moment, and it felt like falling into an ice cave.
"...I'll leave the matters in the breeding house to you. We must ensure the safety of the demon pets."
Dean quickly told Lyanna what he had to do, and it wasn't until she left that he calmed down and began to think about what happened to Lucy and Box.
What's certain is that things haven't gotten to their worst yet.
If you think about it for a while, you will know that if you can kill the box without causing any disturbance, the opponent must be very powerful. Dean does not think that this kind of enemy will appear in District 13. , only dealt with a little girl and a few magic pets, then waved his sleeves and left lightly.
So Dean prefers the second possibility, which is that Xia, Lucy and the others are trapped in a certain space.
This resulted in the energy output being cut off, causing the barrier to break.
Thinking about Crab Erha who couldn't be found no matter how hard he looked, Dean became more and more firm in his guess.
By the way, there’s also a Crab Erha.
His head suddenly became as big as a bucket.
Crab Erha and Mrs. Green Rose haven't found them yet, so they have lost several more.
what is this? Calabash baby saves grandpa?
Dean turned to look at Ronan. After hesitating for a moment, he ordered: "Contact the Knights, tell them something happened on Lucy's side, and ask them to send people to search along the originally planned route."
"I have asked Lai Yinna to spread the news about the closure. I will put aside the matters regarding the guild and the breeding house for now. Once the monsters are sorted out, I will go find Lucy in person."
…
"How's it going? Did you find anything?"
The knights were holding maps and searching for valuable information. Sheila bit the toothpick in her mouth and looked at her subordinates walking towards her.
"No."
The other party shook his head.
"I've looked for them all, and there are indeed signs of fighting on the planned route, but there's no one there."
Silla touched the thin sword on her waist, her heart sinking slightly.
"Are there any signs of injury?"
"No, they have done some damage to the aftermath. It seems that they have not encountered an opponent that is too difficult to deal with."
This should be considered good news, but the expression on Silla’s face did not lighten up.
"I didn't encounter a difficult opponent, but I suddenly disappeared..."
There was only one possibility, that is, the opponent they encountered was of extraordinary strength, and their appearance was completely unexpected by the group.
Otherwise, she believed that with the quality of her subordinates, it would be impossible to leave no information at all.
Sheila returned the map to the recorder irritably, turned her head again, and said firmly.
"If you continue to search, if you find anything, report it to me immediately!"
"yes!"
Half an hour later, the knights successfully located the location where Lucy and others disappeared. The adjutant came to Sheila immediately and reported to her.
"I found a trace, which is quite strange. It may be related to the missing person."
"Take me there!"
They came to the place where Lucy had killed the mysterious monster before, and a large tree with obvious burn marks came into Sheila's sight.
"This should be done by the breeder. According to speculation, up to this point, their mission has been completed smoothly."
Sheila walked over and looked carefully around the big tree that was listed as a key object of attention, with a thoughtful look on her face.
The trees were burned, much more serious than the previous battle marks, indicating that the team had encountered an enemy that required them to use their hands and feet to deal with it.
The breeder ordered his magic pet to attack... Did this monster bring them danger?
I'm afraid not.
Glancing at the sudden open space at her feet, Silla denied this speculation.
The breeder managed to deal with this beast fairly easily. The method was very clean and tidy. The only drawback was that the output was not controlled well.
But it can be considered that the flaws do not hide the advantages.
What happened next?
Thanks to the efforts of the parties involved, the fire was quickly brought under control.
It can be seen that up until this point, they had not encountered any trouble, otherwise they would not have had the time to put out the fire.
And then... they let their guard down.
The danger may also come at this time.
Silla circled around the big tree, with a solemn look on her face.
"Bring me the map."
Taking the map handed over by her subordinate, she quickly found her location and then frowned.
“Why isn’t this trail marked?”
The person being questioned came over to take a look, and also frowned.
"Sorry, it may be the recorder's mistake..."
Mistake?
I'm afraid not necessarily.
Silla bit her toothpick and said decisively: "You stay here, I will go over and take a look."
"team leader……"
Before the subordinate finished speaking, he saw the female knight standing in the sky and quickly disappeared from sight.
The knight who spoke had a vein in his forehead and could only take over the command, ordering the team to guard the surroundings, while mentally talking about his arbitrary boss.
Sheila, who had left her subordinate behind, naturally didn't know how the other party was slandering her. She followed the path and went deep until she reached the position where the knights marked the limit, and then stopped.
Nothing at all.
Or to be precise, not a single living thing.
Sheila fell to the ground and turned around. She could see many traces of different shades. It seemed that there had been many magical beasts here, and the types were very diverse.
She squatted down, picked up the soil, and rubbed it on her fingertips.
A familiar fishy smell was released along with the movements of the female knight, making Sheila couldn't help showing a look of disgust.
