My Magic Has No Attack Power Chapter 14: : Ruins


As we all know, no matter how the human brain evolves, it will always have some small problems at some point.

For example: when sweeping the floor, put the broom in a corner, and suddenly forget where the broom is after picking up the garbage shovel...

When I was on the phone, I unknowingly stood on the sofa, talking on the phone in a weird posture...

When I was thinking about something, I unknowingly took a strange thing in my hand...

Andrea was in a similar state just now. Looking at Xiang En's finger, the image of Xiang En sucking her finger was inexplicably circulating in her mind, causing her actions to be faster than her thoughts, and she took a bite.

In the end, she simply gave up on herself, closed her eyes and pretended to be an ostrich. After the sweet dew entered her mouth, she gave up thinking completely.

It wasn't until Xiangen opened her mouth to remind her that this made her face the embarrassment of reality again...

With her back to Xiangen, Andrea's ears were flushed, and she was rowing the raft stiffly. She didn't dare to look back at all, but after the raft hit the floating corpse a few times, the feeling of redness on her face and ears disappeared. .

Xiang En was the same, speechless all the way, until the afternoon, the two of them crossed the gentle lake and came to a high stone wall.

The high wall is square, completely blocking the overflowing lake water, and also blocking the way out of the monster forest.

Looking up at the high wall formed by the condensed earth element, this is almost a complete confirmation of the fact that the archmages of Der City did it on purpose.

The earth element high wall is nearly ten meters high even if it is above the waterline of more than ten meters. The wall is as smooth as a polished marble slab. Such a spectacle must have come from the hands of the Archmage.

Andrea stabbed the high wall with a dagger, but the dagger was twisted a little, and she stopped trying.

Climbing is not advisable, and in the end they climbed away on the hillside next to the high earth elemental wall.

In addition to the original road behind the mountain range, there are only a lot of traces left by beasts and people after fleeing. The two of them followed these traces and started all the way north.

The closest town to the submerged Great Lake is about 60 kilometers away. They have to travel a long way to see people.

The entire empire map interprets what it means to be vast and sparsely populated, and communication is not convenient.

It has only been two and a half days since the city of De Er was submerged in water, and those who escaped from the flood water are estimated to have just fled to other towns.

On the way, Xiangen and Andrea finally found the stream. After drinking, they forgot the previous embarrassment and continued on the road.

In the evening, the two lit a bonfire beside the road pressed by the carriage, and still ate magic bread.

From the afternoon they left Lake D'El until it got dark, neither of them found any creatures around except for bugs. There were bloodstains left on the road, but they didn't find any dead bodies.

Everything seemed so quiet, as if the world had forgotten the two of them. After leaving the range of Lake D'El, the two of them felt a strange trance.

I was almost killed by a flood not long ago, and now I have escaped unharmed...

Oh!

It can't be said that Anyang is safe. The wound on Xiang En's lower back, which was stabbed by dead wood, is still painful. Andrea's forehead also has a worn blood scab, and her palms have become rougher than before.

Warrior-type women basically don't have soft hands, and basic chopping practice is enough for them to get calluses on their hands.

Compared to the "wild" female warrior-type professionals, Andrea's skin is lighter.

"Andrea, you go to sleep first, I'll stay in the middle of the night." Xiang En clapped his hands, shook off the crumbs from the bread, and let the sleepy Andrea rest first.

When she was in a coma before, it was Andrea's night watch, plus she was frightened at that time, and after leaving the lake, she couldn't hold it anymore.

Andrea didn't try to be brave, she just said, "Call me Leah."

He leaned against the tree trunk and closed his eyes.

In the first half of the night, the weather was calm. Perhaps the beasts that escaped from the Lake De Er area followed the footsteps of humans. Perhaps the sudden change of terrain made the beasts feel uneasy and decided to leave their homeland to find new settlements.

But no matter what, neither of them triggered any unexpected events throughout the night.

Not only this night, but during the following two consecutive days of travel, neither of them encountered any living creatures other than insects.

This situation didn't change until the ruins of one of their towns...

"What happened here...?"

Looking at the town that was in ruins and filled with black smoke ahead, Andrea was dazed and confused.

The city they planned to arrive at has now turned into a ruined wall. Looking in from the open city gate, they can see that the original wooden house has been turned into coke, and black-gray smoke is slowly escaping outside.

On the ground next to the city gate there are not only huge bloodstains, but also heavy footprints and horseshoe prints.

The scene here reminds Xiang En of the word, burning, killing, looting...

Shouldn't it be ransacked by robbers?

With an inexplicable heavy heart, Xiang En and Andrea stepped into the city gate together.

After entering the interior of the city wall, the two of them were immediately dizzy due to the warm smoke mixed with the smell of blood.

There was no movement in the town except for the crackling of some underburned wood.

Xiang En and Andrea walked side by side on the main road of the town, scanning the four directions, and some details shocked the two.

The collapsed wooden house burned to charcoal, and dried blood underfoot outlined the chaos of the day of the tragedy.

They seem to be able to spy on the scene at that time through the blood and partially blood-stained footprints.

Crouching down to examine a muddy footprint carefully~IndoMTL.com~ Xiang En's brows almost knit together, he picked up a little bit of blood-stained dirt and put it on the tip of his nose to smell it.

"Did you see anything?" Andrea asked thoughtfully to En after looking around the ruins.

When she came to Deer City, she lived here, and she could vaguely recall the prosperity of the place through the collapsed house.

Her complexion began to darken at a speed visible to the naked eye. Andrea could still remember that the owner of an inn here had a lovely daughter. She once asked herself what the life of an adventurer was like?

At that time, she answered vividly, the girl's eyes were shining with stars, and she said that she would also be an adventurer in the future.

Now if she can see that girl again, she may change her answer... but can she really see it?

Xiang En clapped his hands and stood up, "The smell is very mild, and the flames here have disappeared. It should have happened about five days ago... Let's continue to see."

"Hmm."

Andrea's voice was low.

The two walked through the original streets and alleys, but did not find a single body.

They didn't know where the bodies had gone until they walked to the ruins of a room and found clear traces of dragging on the ground.

Watching the trail of blood left on the ground, Xiang En, with a complicated and uneasy mood, dug up the burnt charcoal together with Andrea.

Then, they saw the bones that were glued together, the number of which was indistinguishable.

I had imagined that a world without effective laws would be a mess, but seeing a town being slaughtered with my own eyes is something I didn't expect!

After sighing at the tragedy in front of her, Xiang En turned around and walked towards Andrea who turned her back and vomited because she couldn't accept the picture.
