One hundred unknown creatures

The darkness enveloped this earth. In this time when all humans should have slept peacefully in the bed, it was the time to energize most of the beasts. Perhaps for them, as hunters, night is the beginning of the day. (, watch the latest update of this book)

Perhaps this is the difference between humans and beasts, but it is at this moment when all normal humans should fall into sleep, but there is a small number of people who cannot fall asleep peacefully...

Yibis works as a nun in a monastery in this city. In addition to listening to the confession of citizens, he can only clean up the job. Although listening to confession is more important than her boss... that is, the job of the priest here, this responsibility has been pushed to himself by the other party's reason that "sooner or later, if you want to inherit this monastery, you must adapt to this job early!"

Thinking of this, she couldn't help but curse. Who would be happy to inherit such a bad property? The amount I get at the Temple Headquarters every year is pitifully small, and occasionally I can't get it at all. I don't know if the guys at the headquarters have forgotten that there is such a dilapidated branch in this city?

Moreover, as a monastery, it not only houses most orphans, but also a large cemetery on the back mountain. Almost all the citizens who died in this city will be buried there - including her sister named Stuka. However, although she was also an orphan here, it is obvious that her sister is not very lucky compared to her nun here...

I have already died early. Since I have died, of course it cannot be considered lucky!

But at this time, if you want to say that your luck is not very good, her boss, that is, in this somewhat dilapidated monastery, except for her other staff member, Father Engels, is somewhat similar to a very big-name revolutionary warrior, but according to research, they are not the same person.

"Yibis..." A pair of hands covered with thick calluses held her palm tightly. It was the hand of Father Engels. It seemed that it was said that before work, all matters of all sizes were handled by this old priest. This seemed to be true... Yibis thought about it, and while confirming, he held the old wrist in his hand tightly.

However, the owner of the wrist was not in good condition at this time. The blood had already stained his body, and even the white beard turned into a red beard. According to Bisichu's calculations, the blood stains were real this time, because with the current difficult financial situation, I probably took away all the money. This old slip of the old man couldn't make up so much tomato sauce!

Not to mention that his left hand has disappeared...

"Father... are you?" He woke up from the bed in the middle of the night. When he opened his eyes, Yibis, who finally realized that the matter was not simple, asked.

But when he heard this, the old priest who looked obviously still dying suddenly felt energetic. After sighing, he said, "It's a long story... It's a huge black dragon as high as a city wall. It destroyed the entire city guard in just one breath, and my injury was also left when I was fighting it."

However, looking at the old priest covered in blood in front of him with a serious look on his face, Yibisi covered her forehead helplessly and said angrily: "Be serious! Isn't this the story of the black dragon that destroyed your original monastery and then caused you to be exiled to this ruined place by the headquarters, and you have to live here for this life? You have said this passage many times!"

"Oh? Is that right?" Engels said in a daze. He was still so energetic that he had lost his arm. Could it be that this inconspicuous old priest is also an unknown peerless man? He continued: "This is the thing. Just now, just now, he went out to get the express delivery, and suddenly a monster of two people jumped out of the side, killing the express delivery person, and even I was injured!"

"Monster...monster?" Yibis said in confusion. At this time, she was already wondering if this old guy planned something to cheat her of her salary this month - how could there be any monsters in the city? Although this is not an important fortress, it is impossible to be attacked by the monsters and have no idea!

"Well, my whole body seems to be covered with metal armor. I feel extremely defensive just by looking at it! But I can't tell what kind of monster it is..." Engels said in memory, but then he thought of something, his body collapsed on the ground, slowly stretched out his hand, and stroked Xiang Yibisi's cheek.//.com Novel Network//

"That is a very powerful monster. If you meet it next time, Yibis, you must be careful! And... I'm afraid I can't hold on anymore with such a serious injury. Remember to bury my body in the best Feng Shui position in the cemetery in the back mountain... If I buried me there, my descendants will all be developed." He stretched out his hand tremblingly, held Yibis' wrist, and said weakly as if a twilight old man.

"Also, its weakness..." Then he continued to murmur, and suddenly his eyes widened as if they were looking back, and he said loudly and clearly: "It's the heart!!"

Then he took his last breath...

Only Yibis with a strange face was left, she said with some amusement and laughter: "Just broke your hand... I can't die, Father! And when did you come to your descendants?!"

"No, don't mention this matter again. Father Engels is dead! Remember to help me pay back the debt from the tavern at the intersection of the street." But Father Engels, who should have fallen to the ground and swallowed his last breath, suddenly opened his eyes and replied.

"Don't draw conclusions so early!!" Yibis said helplessly. When has it been, this guy was still thinking about asking him to pay back the money... But in this way, this guy seemed to be injured too badly.

"Are you guys in a hurry to hand over this mess to me? Then get a death certificate for death in the line of duty, get a fake ID card like your long-lost brother, and hide with your pension to enjoy your old age, right?" Yibis said dissatisfiedly, but asked uneasy: "Then priest, what should we do now?"

Hearing this, Father Engels, who pretended to be dead, also stretched out his remaining right hand and touched his chin, and said cautiously: "Indeed, when I left, the monster was still gnawing on the body of the ribs delivered by the express delivery, but since it had the name you called it, you would probably be eaten soon. Now it should have finished eating the ribs and is hitting the barrier on the outer layer of the monastery!"

At this time, it seemed to confirm the priest's speculation that the sound of some heavy object hitting the barrier had already been heard from the entrance of the monastery - but because this dilapidated monastery was located in a relatively remote location in the city, the movement here could not attract the attention of the guards who were patrolling the night.

As if he saw the worry of the young nun in front of him, the experienced priest said with wise eyes: "Now we need one, with seven scars on his chest..."

At this time, he seemed to have transformed into the old village chief in the legend of the savior at the end of the century...

"This joke has been used to a bad job!" Yibis said unbearably.

"Since there is no savior's words, then I can only pray." Father Engels said, thinking about it, and then continued to say it: "Well... you will wake up all the orphans here and take them to the auditorium? There is a defensive barrier with the highest level in the entire monastery. As long as it can last until dawn, the city guards will probably find it and come to rescue."

Hearing this, Yibis finally breathed a little relieved, thinking in his heart that even if this guy is not reliable, he is still the priest here... Then he remembered something and asked: "But, do we have no weapons to defend against the enemy except for the defensive barrier?"

"Hmph, because Athena hates weapons, the young Saints can only fight with flesh. As clergy, don't you even know this?" But after this question aroused the bloody priest on the opposite side.

“…”

However, although the monastery seemed extremely devastated, there were quite a few orphans in shelter. Perhaps this was related to the fact that Yibis had been often taken care of by this monastery, so it took her a lot of effort to gather all the orphans in shelter here. Fortunately, the "warfare" seemed to have not yet broken through the outermost defensive barrier, so there were no casualties.

"Father, all the orphans in the monastery have brought it here." Yibis wiped the sweat off his head and said to Father Engels who had been waiting in the auditorium early on.

"Yeah!" Father Engels nodded casually, and then a peanut tree was bounced into his mouth as he followed his movements. At this time, he was lying on a bench for prayer, looking extremely leisurely, but the empty left arm indicated that he was a seriously injured at this time.

Therefore, it seems extremely strange... I was obviously seriously injured, but I couldn't see any pain?

"But speaking of it... Father, why do you feel like nothing happened if you break your arm?" Yibis, who had been idle, finally asked the question that has bothered her since before.

After hearing this, Father Engels stopped and continued to eat peanuts, and turned to look at the other party: "Oh? Haven't I told you? My left hand was originally a prosthetic limb? I accidentally lost my left hand when I was playing alchemy with others. The blood of the guy who delivered the express delivery."

"..." Yibis fell silent when he heard this.

After a while, I finally couldn't help myself: "Since that's the case, don't continue to lie on the ground and pretend to be dead!!"

………………………………………………

As a small branch of the temple, the monastery will certainly be arranged with various defense measures just like the temple headquarters. It can be said that the monastery is the last barrier to rescue the victims after an accident in a city. Under this setting, some defensive barriers arranged in the monastery will naturally be unlikely to be broken in a short time.

Even if this monastery is disrepaired, it seems extremely devastating. Even the headquarters may have forgotten that there is such a branch in this city, but the defensive barrier here will not be weakened at all. But even so, the "warfare Engels" mentioned by him still appeared in front of Yibis and the others...

It is indeed as Engels said that he has two people's tall body, and his slender and sharp forearms seem to be his most powerful weapon, but his head is not as sharp as other monsters with sharp fangs and blood-plate mouths, but is somewhat similar to some knight's helmets, looking smooth and clear.

There was even a long bunch of silk tassels behind his head. At this moment, Yibis finally knew why Father Engels said that this creature was not a monster, because the mouthpiece that the creature's most important food for the monster was not conspicuous. It was even more like a weird artificial creature than the monster?

But this creature seems to have a powerful attack power that artificial creatures generally do not possess. With its attack, the light that includes the last defensive barrier that lives in the entire auditorium has become dimmer and seems a little crumbling. Maybe it will shatter immediately after the next attack?

"God...Father, what should I do now?" Seeing the unknown creatures in front of me constantly attacking the barrier, the orphans in the auditorium had already started to cry loudly. Under the crying around, Yibis also began to feel a little uneasy and couldn't help but whisper to Father Engels beside him.

The priest looked at the unknown creature in front of him who was still "working tirelessly", touched his chin, and then spoke helplessly and reluctantly: "In fact, there is an escape tunnel under the cross. If it really doesn't work, we will escape from there!"

"Authentic?" Yibis was stunned when she heard this. She could not imagine why there were despicable things like authenticity in serious places like the auditorium. She did not think that this setting would be part of the architectural plan of the monastery itself.

"Actually, I dug it secretly last year." The priest said reluctantly: "Because I borrowed usury at that time, those guys threatened that I would not pay off my debt within three months, so I came here to drip in the middle of the night while I was sleeping, but I really couldn't find the money, so I had to prepare this tunnel for running away."

"Ha?" Yibis asked in disbelief. This was more shocking than the secret tunnel below the auditorium. Why did this guy, as a clergy, get a day when he was soaked by usury and poured blood on the black dog?

"But soon, the headquarters' funding was also released, so after paying off the debt, the tunnel was not useful, but I didn't expect it to be useful today? I'm simply a genius!" The priest who had announced this bad thing before seemed a little reluctant, but his expression became a little satisfied when he said this.

"Yibis! What are you waiting for?! Let's run away now! When the monster finally breaks through the barrier, we will have already patted our butt and left without a trace!" Then he said proudly to Yibis beside him.

Yibisi nodded excitedly with a desperate look on her face, hurriedly opened the secret wall below the huge cross in the auditorium. Looking at the locked wooden board that was indeed exposed below, she smiled in surprise, and for a moment she had to admire this usually unreliable priest boss.

At least not lost at critical moments...

"Father, where is the key? The escape passage seems to be locked!" Yibis said with a smile on his face to Father Engels, who was still complacent on the other side, and stretched out his spread palm.

"What key?" Father Engels replied with a smile.

“…”

"..." Both of them who looked at each other for a moment were silent, and then the smile on their faces slowly disappeared, and their faces gradually became stiff.

At this time, the holy light curtain around him darkened and then completely disappeared - heavy footsteps sounded, and the unknown creature in front finally stepped into the auditorium where Yibis and the others were... The final defensive barrier had exhausted its energy and failed under its attack!

After the annoying light curtain that had been resisting it finally disappeared, the unknown creature also rushed to the closest to it, Father Ibis and Father Engels. At such a close distance, Ibis could even smell the strong bloody smell of the monster stained the blood of the courier.

She showed a terrified expression. At this moment, she hoped that Father Engels next to her suddenly stopped in front of her and said lightly, "I'm sorry, I've kept it from you for so long, but I was actually the one I used to..." Then she knocked down the monster with great might!

But unfortunately, what she saw in the light of her eyes was that this guy was trembling more exaggeratedly than herself?

However, I don’t know if it is the hall of prayer. Prayer is indeed a very effective relationship. The god seemed to have agreed to Ibis’ wish. A voice suddenly blocked her - under her position, what you can see is a long orange floating hair.

It was a girl younger than her. She held a sword-like shape in her hand, but the blade was three surrounds, which looked a bit weird weapon that was almost conical... and the other party's clothes were a little disheveled, and even a corner of the colorful collar of the pajamas was exposed in her clothes, which was obviously rushed here.

But this is not the question she has to care about, all she has to care about is - it doesn't seem to have to die this time?!

"Has it been completely eroded by the artificial stone of truth?" The girl who suddenly appeared said deeply, wielding her sword to block the unknown creature that was attacking. Although she was frowning, she was not surprised, and seemed to know the creature in front of her.

"Sure enough, after losing your mind, the more familiar people and places you are, the more you will attack." He continued to say slowly.

"You mean... a familiar person?" Hearing this, Yibis made an unexpected voice because she really couldn't remember where she had seen this creature.

"Well, but this doesn't matter." Rorona nodded and answered casually, obviously not thinking about answering the other party carefully.

"What's important is...I'm here to fulfill the promise of killing him when he can't help it." continued.
