It started violently, as if I saw a strange shadow doll growing in the ground.
Lucy's pupils trembled, and all kinds of bizarre conjectures emerged in her mind.
Just as her thoughts were surging and gradually starting to develop in the direction of conspiracy theories, a familiar figure appeared in front of everyone.
"teacher!"
In an instant, all worries disappeared, and Lucy shouted excitedly, jumping up on the spot like a jumping deer, and pounced directly.
Dean, who finally found the person, breathed a sigh of relief. He stretched out his hand and accurately locked the student's armpit. Before Lucy could wonder if there was something wrong with this direction, his body was like a big pendulum. It started to spin.
Dean took her in a circle in the air very naturally, like a dryer, and after getting rid of all the atmosphere, he put her back where she was.
Lucy blinked her eyes after being swung around, feeling that all the emotions she felt were wiped away by this blow, and the small breeze made her brain sober.
Looking at the teacher again, the "tall" and "reliable" filter just disappeared completely in an instant.
Sure enough, it's all an illusion.
Lucy puffed up her cheeks, but her body was honestly close to Dean, and her whole body relaxed instantly.
A sense of confidence that he had found his guardian arose spontaneously, and even his back straightened a bit.
"Is everyone here?"
The knights who watched the interaction between the two people were basically sure that the Dean in front of them was real. They hurriedly stepped forward and reported their identities. Dean probably matched their information with that of the Knights, and also mentioned something else. He was completely relieved after half a breath.
Not a single one is missing, which is really a blessing among misfortunes.
The magic pets are also here. Except for the relatively large consumption, all the values are within the normal range. It seems that they have not encountered any too difficult enemies. Compared with several bad situations that Dean had expected before, this kind of situation is already A very good ending.
"teacher……"
Seeing Dean's expression of "You'll be safe as long as I'm here," Lucy, who had taken back the Akaman fish, wanted to ask him how to deal with the enemies around her. As soon as she opened her mouth, she saw the box falling from the sky. Facing her, Lucy could completely see the whole process of it closing its eyes and blowing a white bubble from its nose.
The soothing and relaxed look on his face made even the forehead lines smoother, making him look a little more kind in an instant.
...You old man is really sleeping too!
Even the snot bubbles came out, why don't you be so efficient!
Lucy's mouth twitched, and while she reached out to hold the old man, she also had a rough guess about his reassuring expression.
"Is Kana here too?"
Dean nodded, "Fortunately you are not too far away, otherwise it would be too late for us to arrive."
It was also thanks to Garfield's reliability that although it took a long time, he was still working slowly and carefully, and he was not disappointed.
Dean threw the fat cat to Kana when he was done with it. Only then did he remember the "great hero" whom he had crossed the river to destroy the bridge. With a guilty conscience, he contacted the Shadow Doll who had split up with him to deal with the World of Warcraft. Before I had time to ask, I heard the fierce battle going on across the street.
His brows furrowed more and more as he listened. He glanced at Lucy and breathed a sigh of relief for the fateful child.
This time he really had a narrow escape.
After adjusting his expression, Dean looked at Lucy and made a packing gesture towards her.
"This place will become more dangerous next, so I'll send you out first."
Lucy naturally wouldn't object, and she didn't think she could help Dean by staying. However, the knights on the side, out of adult shame, were a little embarrassed to talk to children who were not as tall as her thighs. The girl was included in the vulnerable group category. After a moment of hesitation, a representative was pushed out and asked proactively: "Do you need us to stay and help?"
Dean smiled and said nothing, only expressing his expectation for the knights to go to the children's table with his eyes.
"Hahaha, I just asked casually..."
The knight who took the initiative to speak touched the back of his head in embarrassment, feeling like he was humiliating himself. While retreating in despair, he did not forget to secretly glare at the companion who pushed him out.
Dean didn't waste any more time in greetings. He patted Lucy on the shoulder, asked her to stand with the knights, and warned:
"I will send you near the Knights. You can go and report that you are safe first, and then take your demon pets home."
After saying that, he activated his teleportation ability, trying for the first time to bring so many people into his "carrying" range. The consumption was actually much lower than expected, which made Dean successfully complete a multi-person consignment. Somewhat unexpected.
But he didn't have time to think too much. Kana's urging was quickly transmitted through the contract. After Dean simply gave Lucy a few words, he returned to the mist world without stopping.
Two consecutive flashes, and the knight fell to the ground due to the teleportation reaction. This strange scene made the only bystanders tremble with fear. They couldn't help shaking their hands and splashed ice water all over themselves. They were immediately chilled. Have to scream.
Lucy, who was still dazed, looked up when she heard the sound, and saw the owner of the cold drink shop who had spilled water all over herself and was grinning. She instantly felt like she had returned to the real world.
She hugged the demon pets that were collapsed into a pile in her arms, put her head back, rested her head on the cold armor of the female knight, and looked at the sky. The tension in the past few days had completely faded away at this moment. Lucy took a deep breath. He took a breath of fresh air from the outside world, and the next second, he was stimulated by the smell wafting from the pile of armor, and he got up from the ground refreshed.
"vomit!"
…
"Has everything been solved?"
When Dean returned to the mist world and found Kana, there were already a circle of monsters lying on the ground.
Garfield and Alpha were like vegetable farmers inspecting the fruits of their wars, walking among them with great interest. When they encountered particularly strange varieties, they would stop to taste them, looking very happy. Only Doremi, with a mouth tied into a knot by the shadow energy, seemed to be wearing an Elizabethan ring, floating in the air, and her whole body exuded a sense of resentment and grievance at being isolated by her companions.
"Here."
Kana nodded.
The Shadow Dolls tried their best to remove those nearby that could be removed. The only ones left on the ground were too close and difficult to deal with, so they simply chose to suppress them by force.
It was only during the fight that Kana discovered that each of these monsters was not only powerful, but also had all kinds of strange talents and abilities. If it hadn't been for the Shadow Realm and its two helpers, Alpha and Garfield, I might have been unable to do anything with them.
