Chapter 908 The Last Daily Life 87
Soon Xiaolin realized something was wrong, because the tourists who were rushing over on skateboards had panicked looks on their faces. They sped up one by one and it didn't seem like they were competing to see who was faster, but more like they were escaping from something.
“Hoooooooooooooo——”
Immediately afterwards, there was another clear and deafening roar.
——An accident happened!
As the deafening roar came, the earth began to tremble. Kobayashi and others naturally looked at the mountains and forests not far away vigilantly.
When Huihui saw what it was, her face changed slightly and she exclaimed: "...No! That's the trolls coming! They're rushing towards us!"
"what?!"
The others were naturally very nervous as well. They looked closely—there were many trolls galloping from a distance. They were tall, strong and powerful. Each troll was at least three meters tall. Their dark skin reflected the strong light in the sun. Their ferocious faces and huge fangs protruded from their fat mouths. They looked very scary. The most important thing was—
"And every troll is riding on skis..."
After seeing it clearly, Aqua couldn't help but say this. I don't know if it was copied from the ski resort or was snatched from tourists. Of course, the important issue now is not this.
“She’s not cute at all, but she’s so popular…!” Cecily glared at the trolls that kept rushing towards her, clicking her tongue and saying loudly, “That’s also a trick of the Eris Cult. They’re so arrogant!”
"Don't put all the blame on the Eris Church. What did they do to you?" Kobayashi rolled his eyes at her in annoyance and couldn't help but complain.
“This matter is not important!” Darkness took out his knight’s sword, blocked it in front of everyone and said, “If this continues, the people on this snowy mountain will be in danger! Xiaolin, what should we do now? Make a decision quickly!”
As she asked, others also looked at it, and seemed to want Xiaolin to make the final decision. Xiaolin said bluntly: "The snowboard business has finally got on track. If a bad reputation spreads, it will be a loss... Everyone, come together to protect the ski resort and tourists!"
We can't let these guys run wild here. You know, Kobayashi has a lot of shares in this ski resort. Even if the profit may not be much, it is better to lose everything in the end. Therefore, Kobayashi did not brazenly say that he would protect the tourists, but directly stated that it was his belief.
So everyone in the team, including Cecily, took out their weapons and prepared to fight the troll that was rushing towards them from the top of the mountain on skis, with bared fangs and claws and roaring.
Among them, Huihui received instructions from Kobayashi and quickly moved away from the ski resort while helping to evacuate the tourists at the ski resort.
Cecily pulled out a small staff from her chest and said, "As long as we defeat the leader, the other trolls should flee, right?"
As a high priest, he normally doesn't need a staff. Aqua uses a staff simply because she wants one because others have one. Cecily saw that Aqua has one, so as her believer, she couldn't be without one either, but she was afraid of trouble so she prepared a small and cute staff.
"The problem is to defeat the leader... Although it is a good proposal..."
Darkness looked a little embarrassed.
When facing numerous monsters, or organized groups of monsters, the best thing to do is not to fight them to the death and wipe out all these monsters, but to carry out a decapitation operation, defeat the leaders of these monsters, and make the organized guys leaderless. In the end, the instincts of the creatures will make them feel the crisis, and the beasts without command will naturally choose to retreat - this is true for both the Demon King's army and the trolls.
however--
"With so many trolls, the key problem is that we can't get to the leader at all!" Aqua almost wailed, shouting out everyone's current predicament.
They had already seen the leader of the trolls, but that guy had been hiding at the edge of the deep mountain jungle and had not charged with his subordinates. There was no way for Kobayashi and his men to carry out a decapitation operation against a monster leader hiding behind the base camp.
There is a feeling of helplessness.
“Don’t worry!” Darkness suddenly stepped forward and said confidently, “If anything goes wrong, I will sacrifice myself to lure them!”
She spoke passionately, like a knight who stood up to protect her companions. However, Kobayashi, who knew her true nature, understood clearly that this guy was not so kind. Darkness’s real purpose was—
“… Ugh! After a futile resistance, my armor will be stripped away and I will be defenseless, and I will become a victim of the trolls…! I will be toyed with this way… that way…! Ha… ah… great!”
The perverted female knight is hopeless.
“Don’t worry about Darkness for now. I have a good idea…” Seeing her frantic look, Kobayashi couldn’t help but sigh, and then said to Megumin who hurried over: “Megumin, have all the guests evacuated?”
He shouted to the little Loli in the distance. When he saw the hordes of trolls rushing over, Kobayashi's first reaction was to evacuate the tourists, and this task was assigned to Huihui, the great magician character with the longest attack range and the greatest firepower in the team.
Hearing Xiaolin's shout, Huihui also responded loudly: "Yes! Everyone has taken refuge at the foot of the mountain!"
There was only the little loli left in the distance, and there was no sign of other tourists. To be honest, it really helped a lot that these tourists were not hijacked by the trolls, which saved them a lot of energy. So based on this, Kobayashi gave the final instructions to Huihui.
“Very good! Then use your normal moves!” Xiaolin shouted loudly, and at the same time raised his thumb as if to encourage Huihui, and encouraged her: “Come on, catch all the trolls who have started to switch from offense to defense, and make them piss their asses off!”
“I’ve been waiting for a long time! Time to attack!” Huihui could no longer suppress her inner restlessness. She had been frantically gathering her own magic power since just now. After hearing Xiaolin’s instructions, she did not hesitate for a moment, raised the magic wand in her hand, and released her strongest attack towards the position of the troll leader in the distance.
"Explosion!!!"
Explosive magic rained down from the sky, along with scorching fireballs that fell from the sky and intense white light that filled the field of vision. The intense flames from the explosion melted all the snow-capped mountains, and the surroundings became filled with steam.
The high temperature made it difficult for people to adapt. The little Loli in the distance was lying on the ground because she had exhausted her magic power. But Xiaolin was thankful because no tourists were injured and no bigger disturbances were caused. The disturbance was resolved very easily. Hopefully, there won't be any more trouble.
"Huh, it's finally calmed down—"
As Kobayashi was thinking this, he suddenly discovered something was not right.
"Wait, this is so strange, where is this?" He looked around and found himself standing on a green meadow, with a warm breeze blowing on his face, making him feel relaxed and happy - wait, wait! This should be a snowy mountain, right? I should be at a ski resort, right? Why, why is there green meadow here?
Suddenly, Xiaolin saw a building not far away. The building looked familiar. It was the ski rental point that was supposed to stand at the foot of the snow-capped mountains. However, it had now turned into a secluded suburban paradise on the green grassland.
Xiao Lin stared around blankly, and muttered subconsciously: "I say, did anyone use teleportation magic?"
"No, no one among us can use teleportation magic...Except Krillin." Aqua said this as a matter of course, and her implication was that if Krillin himself didn't use it, then it meant that no one else would be able to use it either.
"But there's no snow around here. What on earth is going on—"
Xiao Lin seemed to have thought of something, and he opened his eyes wide and shouted in disbelief: "——Ah! Could it be... melted?! Because of the explosion magic just now, the snow melted? The high temperature of the explosion magic can really do this kind of thing...?!"
Oh no! It’s terrible!!!
How could I make such a mistake...?
Kobayashi slapped his head, secretly thinking that he was so careless that he thought he could do whatever he wanted with Megumin’s explosion magic, but in the end, such a mess happened. The most annoying thing was——
“Hahahaha!” Megumin, who was carried back by Darkness, laughed triumphantly as if to show off, and shouted loudly: “I have to say, this power is too strong, it’s worthy of me! My explosion magic is indeed the strongest!”
After saying that, she tilted her head and fainted. It seemed that in order to truly kill the troll leader, she had used all her skills, and the result was naturally that the troll leader was conquered, and its subordinates also fled in panic to retake the forest, but the most important thing was -
"Hey! Look at what you guys have done!" Cecily didn't seem to expect it to turn out like this. She shouted a little aggrieved, "I said, the snow can highlight my cuteness. I was planning to fall on the snow on purpose so that everyone would care about me and I could use the opportunity to persuade people to join the church...!"
Is this guy an idiot?
“I understand how you feel, Cecily.” Darkness also had a disappointed expression. She patted Cecily’s shoulder and said, “I also hope that more snowballs can hit me before the snow melts. That way, I can enjoy the fun—!”
Great, this guy is also a complete idiot.
"Now is not the time to talk about this!" Xiao Lin was a little impatient, and then he muttered in panic: "What should I do... This is bad, this is really bad..."
At this time, the administrator who had fled for shelter upon seeing the trolls coming hurried back. Seeing the messy green grassland with almost no trace of snow, he collapsed to his knees, holding his head with both hands and shouting, "This, this, this, this... What the hell is going on!!!"
Xiao Lin could understand the manager's frustration. After all, anyone would be overwhelmed if they saw the ski resort they had worked so hard to build turned into a green grassland. Not only was their money but also their hard work was wasted...
"Hey... Hey, Xiaolin!" The administrator immediately found Xiaolin, the adventurer who had just been fighting the troll, and asked loudly, "How did the snow melt? Please explain it to me!"
"Um... this..." Xiao Lin scratched his head awkwardly, not daring to look at the administrator's questioning eyes. He said evasively, "The responsibility is not ours, it's the trolls—"
"Hmph... Following Krillin's instructions, I used Explosion Magic to melt all the snow!"
Before Xiaolin could finish, Huihui suddenly jumped out to make trouble, and said so in a smug tone, which immediately made Xiaolin open his eyes wide in panic and shouted in fear:
“Hey, Megumin?! Can you cover up a little?!”
To some extent, it was indeed Krillin who gave the instructions to Huihui, but the purpose was not really to melt the snow, but to defeat the trolls. The melting of the snow was just a byproduct.
"I see, it's explosion magic..."
Although the administrator was smiling, his smile could not be called relieved. His kind smile made Xiaolin a little scared, but Xiaolin couldn't help but sigh that he was able to maintain his smile instead of cursing or attacking on the spot, which was considered very cultured.
"That really livened up the atmosphere."
"Yes! Thanks to me!"
Huihui, didn't you hear the admin's sarcasm? It's great that she's so innocent. However, Xiaolin didn't explain to Huihui because he was afraid that this guy would go crazy and use another explosion magic. Even though she had used up her quota of explosion magic today, it didn't mean that she wouldn't come over to cause trouble later.
The administrator turned around, looked at Xiao Lin and said, "However, Xiao Lin, since you are also half a businessman, you should repay what you borrow..."
"Uncle...?" Xiao Lin looked at the administrator who was laughing in anger, took a step back in fear and whispered, "Your smile is very weird, it looks a bit scary..."
"Is it weird? Sorry... But what will happen to me depends on your choice, Xiaolin." The administrator stared at Xiaolin and said, "It depends on whether you want to fill the hole and let the snow return to its original state, or pay compensation. It doesn't matter which side you choose. Well, what are you going to do?"
The administrator seemed easy to talk to, but Xiaolin felt very aggrieved.
“Why did it become like this, ahhhh——”
However, in the end, Kobayashi did not have to pay much compensation, because Huihui's explosive magic killed many trolls, and the guild issued a high bounty for killing trolls. Kobayashi and others who received a large bounty finally paid the compensation to the ski resort after paying the profit of the ski boards.
