The two of them smashed the rock slab beneath them and jumped into the vast underground space, landing with superhero-like poses, stirring up a cloud of dust.
Looking around, their expressions were not very pleasant.
"I didn’t expect Red to have such filthy existences."
Uffie’s expression was not looking good; the goblin nests she had demolished in her lifeti all looked a hundred tis better than this place.
"I’ve never seen a place like this..."
Sowhere in the underground space piled with atballs, Fanen was overwheld by the stench perating the area, almost unable to open his eyes.
Following the underground tunnel discovered at the museum all the way here, the number of atballs far exceeded that of the museum. It seed likely that not only Savis City was supplying here.
On the way, he had heard Uffie ntion that the disaster first struck Savis City, affecting several surrounding cities. The army fought desperately to block the spread, keeping it a certain distance from the capital. Most of these atballs probably ca from other cities.
Now looking at it, how was the disaster’s spread status "blocked"? It had clearly spread nationwide, even the capital had fallen. Is there anywhere intact in all of Red?
Moreover, Uffie also ntioned that this parasite disaster was sohow related to so Evil God... Ainz III announced this, and people thought he had no reason to lie.
Suddenly confronted with so much information, even Fanen felt his mind was dazed.
But after cutting down a few parasites, he snapped back.
Whatever Evil God or parasite, as long as he could, he’d cut them all down!
Uffie comnted that his thinking was "very suitable for immigrating to Warrior Country, surely the elders would love it."
"You’re a local, do you know the way?"
Seeing the underground space as complicated as an ant nest, Uffie couldn’t help asking.
"...I’m a countryman, I’ve never been to the capital."
Fanen shook his head, and just then, the parasites busy transporting various atballs in the underground space noticed the two, suddenly switching from bustling porters to fierce combat stances, with more parasites erging and staring at them dead on.
The huge underground space instantly beca packed full!
"Cold sweat trickled down Fanen’s forehead, he thought, shouldn’t we sneak in more cautiously? Fighting so openly really takes a toll on the body."
"Your narration isn’t funny right now!" Fanen helplessly glanced at Uffie, who was vocally highlighting his expression, breathed in sharply, and said, "But I really feel we shouldn’t barge in so openly!"
Although on the way they had already wiped out countless parasites in the tunnel, they should have already drawn the enemy’s attention.
"This is the warrior’s way of greeting."
Uffie had a jovial expression on her face, "Otherwise, you want to play detective, investigating all over the capital to slowly uncover the Black Hand behind the scenes?"
"Generally, isn’t that how it’s supposed to be?" Fanen gradually turned into the role of a comic relief.
"So it’s not a general situation now."
Uffie swung her long spear towards the direction with the most parasites, whereupon a vast Qi Blade charged forth, tearing swarms of insects apart. It felt like her signal to start the battle, as both she and the parasites beca violent simultaneously.
"My beloved soldiers are still waiting for to save them!"
"Tsk!" Fanen watched Uffie charge into the enemy ranks, opening a killing spree, while thinking that he still preferred teaming up with soone a bit more prudent, as he took out his Saw at Blade to fight the approaching parasites.
It’s unclear what status this underground space holds for the Insect King lurking in the capital, but causing such a commotion would surely draw attention most swiftly.
Throughout this period, he had been fighting, rapidly increasing his combat experience against non-human monsters, and Uffie would offer him very professional guidance, benefiting him greatly.
Yet, with two people against countless parasites, could they win?
In any case, Uffie assured him they would win.
What else could he do but choose to believe?
Though Uffie fights with a carefree, battle-loving deanor, she had planned everything in her mind before the battle and could always control the situation. Up till now, there hadn’t been a single slip-up.
The only flaw is, it seems she really enjoys watching Fanen earnestly make criticisms, so deliberately keeps her plan under wraps, playing coy.
Overall, during these two days of journeying, Fanen seed like her tool for amusent.
"Once I get stronger, I’ll counter-attack to make you feel what I felt." Fanen murmured softly during the fight.
"I heard that."
"You’re so annoying!"
Responding with a giggle, Uffie speedily changed her expression to icy cold when facing the enemies again, the suffused killing intent making nearby foes’ bodies stiffen involuntarily.
A glimr flashed in her eyes, her vision presented a scene different from ordinary people, enemies of varying strengths appeared in different colors in her view. It’s a rare combat skill she had learned during a past journey.
For now, the vast majority of parasites appeared in harmless grayish-white, a few elites in blue and purple, but only sowhere in this underground space glowed with a glaring red light.
Not sure what that is, but surely it’s very important, plus the opponent didn’t seem to notice Uffie had found it, continuing to deploy parasites to attack the two of them.
