She bowed deeply to the two of them, and said loudly, "Please help me!"

"I know, we don't know each other, let alone familiar, I'm just a ghost that popped up out of nowhere. It must be very suspicious and inexplicable for such a ghost to suddenly ask for your help?"

"But I can't help it..." The girl's face was bitter and sad: "I'm just a ghost, no matter how hard I try, the only thing I can do is to ask for help from others."

"However, Miss Yae Rin, you have to know that even if you say so, the decision is still in our hands. We can completely refuse your request, or turn a blind eye to it." Lord reminded.

"I know." Yae Rin's voice was trembling: "But all I can do... that's all..."

"Please, at least listen to my request? Please!"

"Well... then listen to it." Lord held down Teresa who was about to move, and shook his head at her, telling her not to speak yet.

Teresa frowned, but still decided to listen to Lord, so she stood obediently and did not speak.

And Yae Rin, who kept her head down, naturally didn't notice the small movements of the two of them, but said in a trembling voice: "I want to ask you to rescue my sister Yae Sakura from the curse of memory."

"This is an endless cycle of memories, replaying my sister's most painful memories over and over again, torturing my sister over and over again, trying to make my sister give up resistance completely, causing her mind to completely collapse and fall into the boundless In the darkness, he finally became a walking dead that only lives for killing..."

"So... so I hope you can help my sister and rescue her from this boundless pain..."

"I see." Lord nodded and asked, "Then why must it be us?"

"Because you are people who don't belong here, and you are the only variable in this unchanging memory cycle. Only you can break all this falsehood."

"Understood, but it is said to break the cycle of memory, how can this kind of thing be done so easily." Lord sighed, with a tone that he didn't want to care about at all.

Yae Rin's drooping face showed such a bitter expression.

"Sorry to bother you two, I just..."

"You have to pay more."

"...Huh?" Yae Rin looked up in astonishment, as if he didn't understand what Lord was talking about.

"Ah, what I mean is, there must be some reward for such a troublesome matter, right? Who does the work without money?" Lord spread his hands.

Teresa couldn't help but widen her eyes. Just as she was about to speak, Lord pushed her back.

Yae Rin said in a daze: "But...but I'm just a ghost...I, I don't have money..."

"That's right..." Lord thought for a few seconds, snapped his fingers and said, "There is a way."

"I will rescue your sister from the cycle of memories, but there is one condition."

Lord smiled: "You two sisters will be my maids for three years."

"Eh? But, but I'm just a ghost, I've already died, how can I be your maid...? And you are from outside? Can I still go outside?" Yae Rin said a little confused.

"Don't worry about it, anyway, I have a way."

"Then, sister... I can't help my sister make a decision..."

"Hey, Xiao Lin, think about it, if I really rescued your sister, would I be kind to your sister? Then your sister must not be the kind of ungrateful person, right? Should I also repay my favor? ?”

"Yes...that's it." Yae Rin nodded blankly.

"So, is your sister the same as you, who has no money to pay, or to repay me?"

"That's right..."

"Then will she also be my maid in the end?"

"Yes..."

"Isn't that right?" Seeing Yae Rin's suddenly realized expression, Lord knew that he was fooling... ahem, to help her straighten things out.

"So, Xiao Lin, do you want to agree?"

"I promise!" Yae Rin bowed deeply to Lord: "Please, please save my sister!"

"Of course I will save her." Lord smiled and said, "I promise you."

"Oh, by the way, my name is Lord. You don't need to use honorific titles to address me, just call me brother Lord from now on." Lord said with ease.

"Lord...brother?"

"That's right, that's what it's called." Lord's expression immediately became more comfortable.

"Also, the person next to me is called Theresa, you can just call her Sister Theresa."

"Ah, yes, I remember." Yae Rin nodded heavily.

"By the way, Xiao Lin. If we leave here, how will we communicate with you? We can't run here every time we contact you, right?" Lord asked.

"Well... I really can't leave here..." Yae Rin thought for a while and said, "But, when you fall asleep at night, I can communicate with you in the dream."

"Understood." Lord nodded, and said: "Then let's go first, and then we will go to the village to have a look, maybe we can find clues to help your sister."

"Okay! Please, Brother Lord!"

…………

Lord and Teresa followed the trail all the way down, and saw a wooden bridge, and rows of houses faintly visible behind the bridge.

Teresa hasn't spoken since saying goodbye to Yae Rin just now, and seems to be sulking.

Lord went to hold her hand, but she avoided it.

"Why, angry?" Lord asked.

"You still have the nerve to ask?" Teresa turned her head and stared at him, her blue eyes were full of anger.

"First of all, we can't be sure that what Yae Rin said is true or not. But you agreed to her request based on her one-sided words. Aren't you afraid that she is pretending to be pitiful and tricking you?"

"You still say you don't care about me?"

"Don't interrupt!" Teresa continued: "Secondly, even if what Yae Rin said is true, why is Yae Sakura trapped in the reincarnation of memory? Thinking of her identity as a pseudo-herrscher, it is obvious It's because of the Honkai. And now I'm just a useless little girl, and your strength is not at its peak. Why do you think you can fight against the power that is enough to trap a pseudo-Herserscher? "

"Don't you care about me..." Lord muttered softly.

"Finally, what do you mean by letting these two sisters be your maids? Yae Sakura is fine, Yae Rin is even just a ghost! Are you even planning to let ghosts go?"

"Ah...then I can't work for nothing, can I?" Lord looked away: "There must be some reward..."

218 Monster Beast

"Tsk... Sure enough, the two sisters are not going to let go? You guys are really..." Theresa glared at him, turned her face away, and looked like she didn't really want to talk to Lord again.

"I don't know why Kiyana likes you, you sweetheart. I suddenly felt that it was a wrong decision to recruit you into Saint Freya." Teresa suddenly thought of something, and looked at Luo with vigilance. De: "Wait a minute, you're not going to attack other children in the academy, are you?"

"No." Lord spread his hands innocently: "Who do you think I am? I will only attack girls I like, okay, it's not like meeting a scumbag who loves one..."

"Huh? Don't you?" Teresa looked at him with disgust: "Do you want me to count how many girls you have harmed now?"

"How can this be called a disaster? Everyone is my confidante, and I am sincere to them!"

"You really are shameless..."

"Thank you for the compliment."

"I said it all, I'm not praising you!"

Teresa gritted her teeth angrily.

"Oh, yes, I have a question." Lord asked with interest: "Did you include yourself just now?"

"what?"

"That's what you said, when you want to help me count how many girls have been harmed, did you count yourself in?"

"...No!" Teresa turned her head away calmly, but her voice was a little weak: "What are you dreaming about? I...I will not let you succeed."

"Really?" Lord looked at Teresa with a smile that was not a smile: "Then take what you said is true."

"It's clearly true!"

"Yeah, ok, ok~"

"Don't fool me!"

The two bickered like this and came to the village.

It's just that the atmosphere in the village is a bit different from what the two of them had imagined.

There are very few people in the village, and there are almost no pedestrians on the road. When I saw a villager by chance, Lord wanted to go up to say hello, but the other party seemed to have seen a ghost. He didn't give Lord a chance to talk to him, and ran away at the speed of light , leaving only Lord and Theresa staring at each other.

The doors and windows of the houses I saw as I passed by were all closed, leaving no gaps, and I couldn't see the situation inside the houses at all.

The whole village is very quiet, but it's not that peaceful and peaceful, but gives people a lifeless feeling.

"This atmosphere is obviously not right?" Teresa muttered.

"It's true... I can't see the vitality that a normal mountain village should have at all." Lord looked at the surrounding houses. He always felt that someone was quietly watching the two of them from behind the window, but after turning his attention away, there was There is no sense of spying: "The villagers here are completely avoiding us."

"It seems that we can't make any progress in the village..." Teresa looked at Lord: "What should we do next? Should we go directly to the shrine and continue to wait for the change by Yae Sakura's side? "

Lord pondered for a few seconds and said, "Let's go and go back to the shrine."

So, the two of them prepared to leave the village and return to the shrine.

But when the two of them had just reached the entrance of the village, a figure suddenly stumbled from afar.

It was a young man, but his condition looked very bad. The coarse linen clothes on his body had been broken into irregular strips, and there were several deep bloodstains on his chest, which flowed profusely, covering his entire body. The upper body was dyed red.One arm twisted into an irregular shape, glowing a terrifying purple.Even one of the shoes under his feet ran away.

He seemed to have seen the figures of Lord and Teresa at the entrance of the village, and he didn't care about 21, so he shouted hoarsely: "Help! Help! There are monsters! The monsters in the mountains have come out! Hurry up!" Let's go to Miko-sama, hurry up!"

The young man's voice not only made Lord stop immediately and gave up the idea of ​​leaving, but also made the peaceful village boil.

Hearing that there was a monster, the villagers who were hiding in the house didn't care about Lord's existence anymore. They all ran out of the house in a hurry. anxious.

"Monsters? Where are the monsters?"

"Shanshita is seriously injured! Where's the doctor? Hurry up and invite the doctor!"

"Wait, Yamashita? Why are you the only one back?" A middle-aged man asked eagerly, "Where's Taro? Where did my Taro go?"

"Yes, and my Takeichiro? Why didn't Takeichiro come back?"

"Yamashita, what happened? Where are the others?"

The young man breathed a sigh of relief when he saw all the villagers rushing out, and then fell limply on the ground.

Panting heavily, with a look of fear on his face, he screamed: "Dead! They are all dead! Taro, Takeichiro and I went fishing on the edge of the Yumi River together, and then suddenly ran away from the forest Three monsters came out!"

"Taro was directly bitten off by a monster, Takeichiro...Takeichiro wanted to jump into the river and hide under the water, but just as he jumped in, he was caught by the monster and his whole body was torn to pieces Two halves, Daisuke, and Daisuke, I ran away with him, but we couldn't run away from the monster. Then...then I was sent flying by the monster's paw. The monster seemed to think that I was dead, so it went Chasing Daisuke."

"I waited until the monster chased me away, then I immediately got up and ran back! No, this is not important! First... let's not talk about this..."

Shanshita grabbed the sleeves of the villagers and said anxiously: "Hurry up and send someone to find Miko-sama first! If you don't hurry to find Miko-sama, if those three monsters come to the village, we will all be finished." of!"

Hearing what Yamashita said, everyone immediately exploded. Fear and panic immediately flooded the entire crowd. For a while, everyone was in a mess, completely out of proportion, as if everyone was talking about something, and they were all talking about it. I was expressing my own opinion, but the chaotic words gathered together, and all I could hear was a meaningless noise.

"Okay, calm me down! How can you be so flustered? Is this how you let outsiders see the jokes of our Yae Village?"

Suddenly, an old figure walked out slowly. It was an old man with a cane and a wrinkled face.

He was as old as him, but his voice was very strong and full of energy. With only one person's strength, he suppressed the voices of all the people present.

Lord could feel that the old man glanced at him and Teresa calmly.

But Lord didn't react, he just pulled Teresa aside and became a qualified melon eater.

When the old man spoke, the crowd fell silent in an instant.

Obviously, this old man has a very high prestige among the villagers.

The old man paused his crutches on the ground and made a dull sound, which attracted everyone's attention. He said: "Hiyoshimaru, you are the fastest in the village, you go up the mountain to find Miko-sama .Remember, you have to bypass Yumigawa.”

Among the crowd, a young man responded and left in a hurry.

"other people……"

The old man still wanted to say something, but suddenly an unknown beast's roar came from outside the village, interrupting his words.

For a moment, everyone's expressions changed.

219 Chaos

Lord stood at the entrance of the village and looked towards the place where the roar came from.Billowing smoke and dust rose from the horizon, rushing towards the village. In the smoke and dust, shadows were vaguely visible, and huge and hideous figures could be vaguely glimpsed. As they moved, even the earth was under heavy footsteps. trembling slightly.

But with Lord's eyesight, he could roughly see the appearance of the monster inside.

As Yamashita said, there were indeed three monsters, or Honkai Beasts, attacking from a distance.

One of them was the brown bear-like Honkai beast that Lord had encountered in the mountains before, but it was bigger.One looks like a tiger, but a gray-white exoskeleton grows out of thin air on the alienated head, and bony spurs grow on the back.The last one is like an ape in the mountains, with thick and powerful arms and short hind limbs. Its arms are like stone pillars, and it looks like a chariot-level Houkai beast 500 years later.

Lord withdrew his gaze, and his expression became a little dignified.
