Chapter 41 The Aftermath
Outside the town of Maha, the escaped town residents, Vic, Monca, Shiya, Kas, etc., who finally arrived, all turned to look behind.
The surging tree roots stopped moving forward, and they began to retract along the path they came.
"Hurry... is it over?"
A resident with a look of horror on his face and was out of breath, collapsed on the ground with a plop, turned his head blankly at the roots of the tree that were retreating behind him, and murmured.
Vicci and Monca also stopped in shock.
Shi Ya suddenly turned around without saying a word and walked quickly towards the direction where the tree roots retreated.
"Shiya, what are you going to do when you go back?"
Faced with Vic's question, Shi Yatou replied without looking back: "Go to find Lord Lin Yu."
Vicci and Monca looked at each other, and then followed one after another.
The tree roots suddenly retreated without warning, indicating that someone had stopped it and was even manipulating it.
Combined with the scenes I saw before, it was only Lin Yu who took action.
Shi Ya and his group stepped over the area that was arched by the tree roots and came to the edge of the town. They happened to see werewolfs such as Hask who were shaking their heads and looking confused.
When Hask saw Shi Ya and others coming, the scenes that had been in the illusion in his mind kept flashing, and he couldn't tell the difference between reality and illusion for a moment.
At this time, a figure rushed towards him from a distance and stopped in front of Hask and others in an instant. It was Lin Yu who turned all the roots into green light and entered his body.
At this time, Lin Yu's right eye flashed red, his left eye flashed green, and a terrifying aura emanated from all over his body, which made Hask and others tremble slightly.
"Mr. Lin Yu."
Lin Yu frowned slightly, looked at the destroyed buildings and ground around him, and said in a deep voice: "Vicci, Monca, block the surroundings and search for the living residents."
"Shi Ya, go and invite the explorers to come and ask them to help restore the original appearance of the place and then eliminate the memories of ordinary residents."
Shi Ya and others nodded quickly when they heard this, and then turned around and left.
At this time, Hask and the werewolf turned back into human form. Hask came to Lin Yu and whispered: "Sir Lin Yu, we seemed to..."
Lin Yu raised his hand to stop Hask's words and said in a deep voice: "It's true, don't ask first, I don't know much. You guys will help search and rescue the survivors first."
Hask stopped slightly, nodded, and then led the werewolf brothers to search and rescue ordinary residents.
Lin Yu stood in the ruins, slowly calming the energy in his body, and gradually returning to normal with his right and left eyes.
But what is strange is that the original black pupil's left eye turned into green pupils, no longer returning to its original color.
Lin Yu looked down at his left hand, and the green light shone. The original flesh-and-blooded left hand immediately turned into wood, and the tree roots as thick as fingers on its surface were twisted and surging.
The green light dissipated, and the mutated left hand changed back to its original appearance again.
Lin Yu frowned, took out the box in his arms and opened it.
I saw that one-fifth of the strange branches inside disappeared, exactly the same as the strange branches that Lin Yu cut in the illusion.
Lin Yu stared at this strange branch and was speechless for a long time.
It was not until Shi Ya invited the explorer's casters and began to repair the damaged terrain and buildings that Lin Yu covered the box and put it back in his arms as if nothing had happened.
"Mr. Lin Yu."
Simon, the leader of the explorer, extended his hand to Lin Yu.
Lin Yu nodded slightly and held it lightly.
"Mr. Simon, please trouble you."
Simon glanced at Lin Yu's green left eye, and his eyes flashed slightly.
"Small question."
Then Simon began to assign the following spell casters to use spells to repair the town.
The restoration work lasted overnight before everything that had been destroyed on the edge of Maha Town was restored to its original state.
And those frightened residents were also memorized and modified one-on-one by the explorer's spellcasters.
The injured person also used magic potions to make it heal quickly and removed scars to ensure that there were no flaws.
In their new memory, they just slept for a night and nothing happened. As for the giant wolf and the twisted and surging tree roots, they had never seen it.
However, damaged objects can be repaired and memory can be eliminated and modified, but the lost life cannot be saved.
Early in the morning, Lin Yu, who was alone outside the tent in the center of the open space outside the town, looked at the five white cloth bodies placed in front of him with a somewhat ugly expression.
Among them are men and women, and there is also a boy who is less than ten years old.
These are ordinary human residents who have been destroyed by surging twisted tree roots and accidentally killed.
It was almost six o'clock now, and in a while, people in Maha Town would get up one after another to start a new life for the day.
Lin Yu took a deep breath, looked at Shi Ya on the side, and said calmly: "Shi Ya, I'll leave it to you."
Shi Ya nodded slightly, and it understood what Lin Yu meant.
At the same time, this is also the most commonly used response to death in every extraordinary event.
That is, after modifying the memory of living people, find someone to play the role of these dead humans, and then let them die reasonably with various accidents.
This will solve the problem of the cause of death of these humans who have died due to extraordinary events.
If there are relatives who are alive, they will make financial compensation in various other hidden ways.
It's cruel, but that's the reality.
This method is not only the headquarters of the witch hunter, but also other monster forces with foundations in human cities. If you do not want to lose everything in the city, it is usually handled in this way.
Shi Ya left, Lin Yu sent away the explorer's spell casters, and then Vicci and Monca also left with confusion.
Lin Yu kept Hask and other werewolfs.
"Hasker, tell me how you got into that weird place?"
Hask recalled after hearing this: "At that time, my brothers and I wanted to stop the roots, and then rushed up."
"But I didn't expect that the tree roots were so hard that I couldn't bite it at all after I took a bite. Then I was wrapped in the tree roots, which made me unable to breathe. My eyes went dark, and then I felt something penetrated into my body."
"When I finally lighted up, I arrived at that weird place, and then a lot of wooden monsters attacked us, and then suddenly flashed, and we came back."
The other werewolf also expressed their support. Their experience was exactly the same as that of Hask, and they all suddenly entered and returned suddenly.
After hearing this, Lin Yu probably understood what Hask and his experience were.
