A declaration of war was issued.

These parasitic monsters did not rush over either.

They kept their direction and kept closing in on the position of Ronald and the three, as if they were slowly shrinking the encirclement in order to safely limit their escape route.

Faced with the situation in front of him, Ronald's mind was in a hurry.

With your own abilities, there is naturally no problem in defeating these transformed monsters here. Even if all the ordinary people in the entire building were transformed, he still had the certainty of winning the fruits of victory.

But what about the others?

The first fifteen sites were reassuring to have investigators in charge, but the new ten sites are definitely not secure at this time.

Ronald hasn't forgotten what he just experienced.

After the death of the cultist who was initially housed, this unknown being was able to quickly parasitize the ordinary people around it. So if you kill the killer here, what will become of the other strongholds in the city?

Thinking of this, Ronald turned his head and glanced at Heloise:

"Phyllis, there are too many of these things to deal with."

"I'll hold this group of monsters in tow, and you two will escape and join the others!"

“……”

After such a long period of intimate contact, Heloise naturally understands the various habits of Ronald's life. Just seeing the other party's eyes, the girl suddenly realized the purpose of the other party's words.

'Too much' 'Drag' 'Meet up with others'......

Even if Ronald didn't express his thoughts explicitly, Heloise could have heard the actual meaning: 'These monsters could spread to other ordinary people in the city.' Now that I'm holding them back, you and Patricia will go out at once, and get ready with the rest of the city. ’

Heloise had wanted to dissuade Ronald.

But when she opened her mouth slightly, and saw the look in Ronald's eyes now, the prepared words finally turned into a serious promise:

"I see, come on."

During the conversation between the two, Patricia on the side did not say a word.

As a swordsman, she has no habit of being distracted in battle.

Since the companion who can be trusted has already made a decision, she naturally won't say anything more. With a slanted sword and a kick down, Patricia forcibly kicked off the damaged part of the sword, turning it into a short sword with a somewhat unique shape.

Her eyes locked on the slowly approaching monsters around her, and she leaned against Heloise as she whispered:

"So how do we break through, it's not going to fly out, right?"

"Actually...... Maybe it's just flying out? ”

Almost at the same time that Heloise answered Patricia, Ronald finished reciting the incantation of the Almagest. The [Junlun] spell immediately took effect on the two girls, dragging them to take off directly, and in the blink of an eye, they crossed these monsters to the location at the entrance of the building.

Heloise was familiar with the spells that Ronald was capable of.

But it was the first time Patricia had seen Ronald use such a spell.

Standing at the door of the building for a second, she realized that she had escaped from the monster.

"This spell ......"

"Go out and explain to you slowly, let's go!"

Halfway through her sentence, Heloise took the initiative to grab Patricia's arm and left the building without hesitation.

The two of them came to the point where they were about to get out of the slum.

Heloise had only slowed down a little as they had been on their way.

"I remember that some of the bureau's offices in the city were equipped with radios, do you know the location?"

“……”

Patricia raised an eyebrow.

The monsters in the ritual stronghold, the spells used by Ronald, and the confidential information told by the girl in front of her were not within her expectations.

Even think deeper.

Some of the issues are even more important than the clean-up campaign itself!

However, remembering Ronald, who was still dragging the monster in the building behind, Patricia still did not continue to investigate, and instead walked in front to lead the way.

"Let's go, I know where I am."

"This really can't be delayed any longer."

“……”

Heloise and Patricia leave the building with ease.

And Ronald, who stayed where he was, faced the same unexpected changes.

Seeing the two girls leave in front of them, these monsters did not have the slightest intention of biting and blocking, and even the activities of continuing to narrow the encirclement were temporarily stopped.

What does that mean?

Looking at the illogical reaction of the group of monsters, Ronald remembered Heloise's comment that 'this group of things have a problem with their brains'.

It's not going to be in the middle of the fight, this guy is going to get sick too, right?

Just as Ronald was on guard and preparing a time-delaying spell, the monster he had spoken to before walked out of the encirclement again, and then spoke confidently:

"Mr. Ronald Adler, I've let go of your two female companions, and now there's no one in the way, can we have a good talk?"

Hearing this, Ronald was stunned for a moment.

What he had envisioned was to keep these monsters in the middle of the battle and buy time for the activities of the rest of the city. It turned out that this guy was good, and he came up with 'I want to talk to you', almost giving himself the opportunity to delay time for free.

It should have been racking his brains to get the time in his hands.

It's really a little emotional.

Of course, Ronald couldn't turn down the opportunity when it came up.

With a stiff and indifferent expression on his face, he nodded in response:

"What do you think we have to talk about?"

"A man and a monster negotiate?"

The monster smiled, it didn't seem to care about the rejection in Ronald's words, but was very happy with Ronald's willingness to talk.

"Mr. Ronald, I know your family lineage, and your ancestors were the main figures who ended the Dark Ages. If I didn't know this, I wouldn't have wasted time with ordinary people. ”

What the hell do these cult warlocks know!

When he heard this, Ronald felt a chill behind him.

People with knowledge and those without knowledge can do a frightening amount when it comes to creating a threat. Suppose that the monster in front of you is also an enemy who knows the history of the Dark Ages......

As a result of this kind of thing, the [Nine Rings Secret Meeting] is the best example.

The magic of the spell was wrapped directly around the palm of his hand, and Ronald spoke in an unprecedented serious tone:

"What the hell do you know?"

Seeing Ronald so vigilant, the monster also put away the terrible smile on his face, and said in a very serious tone:

"What I know doesn't matter, what matters is how to fight against the group of madmen in the [Nine Rings Secret Society]. Their plan to return the world to darkness is nearing completion, and if they don't act now, it'll be too late! ”
