"The territory has been attacked?"
Jenn had to admit that when he heard Enoya's report, he was more or less taken aback.
However, it wasn't because the territory had been attacked. In fact, although Jenn had repelled the Glittergold Empire's army, there were always blind scouts and all kinds of secret agents who came here to find trouble with him.
However, in the territory where there were Xenomorphs outside and Magician Knights inside, these guys were basically annihilated as soon as they entered.
According to Enoya, this attacker not only entered his territory, but also attacked the refugee camps and some villages. This was obviously a provocation to Jenn himself.
Not only that, but he also escaped again and again?
"Yes, Master."
Enoya seemed a little embarrassed about this.
After all, when Jenn was away, the entire territory was under her jurisdiction. In the end, such a thing happened, and Enoya was naturally annoyed.
But she still calmed herself down and introduced Zayen to them.
And according to Enoya, the place where the attacker appeared at the beginning wasn't Passus, but a village in Frode.
It only took him one night to kill everyone in the village.
Not a single person escaped his massacre. It wasn't until the next day when a familiar caravan came to the village to trade that they discovered that everyone was dead.
"Killed a village in one night?"
Hearing Enoya's answer, Jenn raised his brows.
This actually wasn't a difficult thing to do. The villages on the Klein Continent weren't like the villages in Jenn's world, where there were at least dozens of families.
Most of the time, a village had at most a dozen families. Adding up to 50 to 60 people, it was already considered a relatively prosperous village.
In more remote places, there were villages with more than 10 people.
And most of the villagers in these villages hunted and farmed for a living.
Their own strength was only at the Battle Level Five. If they wanted to kill all of them silently, even Tilly, who had a One-Star Battle Prowess, would be able to do it.
"Bandits?"
"That's what most people thought at the time. Later on, another village near that village was attacked.
Still, no one managed to escape. That village was one of the larger settlements in the area, so it attracted the attention of the public security officers and the Church of Holy Light. They conducted a joint investigation and concluded that all of this was done by the same person.
Moreover, judging from the condition of the corpses, he didn't even use magic or weapons. He killed the villagers with his bare hands. "
"This is interesting. Could it be a vampire or a werewolf?"
In Jenn's memory, these were the only two races that fit this description and liked to come out at night.
"That's what the Holy Church believed at the time as well, which was why they took over this matter. But after that, more people were implicated.
This time, it was a manor near the town of Capello. It was also night time, and there were no survivors. "
"The Holy Church must be furious right now."
Hearing until here, Jenn couldn't help but shake his head.
When it came to such matters, the Holy Church had always been cautious. They must have sent out quite a few Holy Knights and Priests to patrol the area, but they didn't expect the other party to be so daring. It must be known that the Holy Church was stationed in almost all the town-level settlements.
If the other party killed someone in a village deep in the forest, the Holy Church might not be able to make it in time. But the other party actually killed someone right under the noses of the Holy Church's garrison. This was basically a slap to the Holy Church's face. If they could tolerate this, they might as well hurry up and leave.
"The Holy Church has indeed gone mad with anger. They practically sealed off the entire town as soon as possible.
But … "
"They definitely didn't find the culprit."
Before Enoya finished, Jenn already guessed the ending. If the Holy Church was really that capable, then it wouldn't be his problem anymore.
"That's right. And Master, do you want to guess where he is going to commit the crime next?"
"Previously, it was at Capello … Are you going to tell me that he went to Soit?"
"Yes, Master. He snuck into a noble's house in Soit and used the same trick to kill everyone in that noble's house."
"This fellow's guts are getting bigger and bigger …"
Jenn furrowed his brows. Nobles weren't ordinary people. Most of them had private armies and even recruited quite a few skilled servants and adventurers.
Soit was considered one of the major cities in the vicinity. Even if the nobles weren't particularly prominent, they weren't people who could be easily killed, not to mention silently.
Because nobles didn't live in the wilderness like those farmers and farmers.
Most of them lived in the most heavily guarded areas of the city. For someone to infiltrate such a place without anyone noticing, it meant that the other party's strength was unfathomable.
Could he be a Legendary?
"Next, he passed through Bode, Half-fish Bridge Town, Wild Berry Town, Tuk City … and finally Parsus."
"And he slaughtered his way here."
Jenn quickly understood the hidden meaning in Enoya's words. After all, there wasn't only one path to Parsus. If the other party attacked in Parsus, no matter how powerful Enoya was, she wouldn't be able to find out where the other party came from.
But now, she had basically described the other party's trajectory clearly, and this in itself was already a clear proof.
"Yes, Master.
Before he arrived, we were on high alert and ordered Xenomorphs to patrol the perimeter.
In the end, he found an opportunity to sneak in. "
"The magic traps didn't work?"
"No. The other party didn't take the regular route and jumped down from a cliff."
"That's really unusual."
Hearing this, Zayen was at his wit's end. Although he had madly built a lot of magic traps around Parsus, they were all in places where humans could walk.
As for a place like the bottom of a cliff that was a hundred feet high, Zayen certainly would not waste his money and mana to lay any traps. After all, going there was basically no difference from suicide, and he did not need to go through the extra effort.
"What happened next?"
"The patrolling Xenomorphs discovered him first. After receiving the report, I sent the Magi Knights over and they engaged in a fierce battle.
In the end, both sides didn't gain the upper hand. The Xenomorphs lost several Xenomorphs and two Magi Knights were gravely injured.
As for the other party, he seized the opportunity to break through the encirclement and escape.
On the second day, he attacked a refugee camp on the outskirts of Parsus. "
"Hmph."
Hearing this, Zayen's expression turned cold.
He didn't care about the lives of the refugees. In fact, strictly speaking, Jenn didn't even care about the lives of his people.
But this was his underground city, his territory.
It would be strange if Jenn didn't have any reaction to the unbridled troublemaker.
"Then, Pattilina led a team to capture that guy … But …"
"Returned without any results?"
"It's good enough that we returned without any results."
Enoya sighed and stopped in her tracks after hearing Jenn's question.
At this time, the two of them had arrived in front of a bedroom on the second floor.
"I think you should go and see her, Master."
Jenn frowned at Enoya's answer and pushed open the door.
In the middle of the spacious and bright room was a luxurious bed. Pattilina was lying quietly on it. She was wrapped in bandages and didn't seem to have much time left.
But Zayen could tell at a glance that the little fellow was currently wandering left and right out of boredom, looking like he could not stay idle at all.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, Patrina looked up curiously, and when she saw Zayen, she immediately rolled over and got up.
"Master!
You're finally … Ouch …! "
Upon seeing Jenn, Pattilina jumped up immediately. At the next moment, she sat back on the bed and slapped the bed with her left hand. After a few moments, she returned to her lively and cheerful self and waved at Jenn.
"You're back, Master."
"I'm back."
While responding to Pattilina's greeting, Jenn swept a glance at the little one in front of him.
It seemed that her injuries weren't serious, just a fracture in her right leg.
But this was considered a rare serious injury for a legendary being.
The other party was actually able to beat Pattilina to this extent?
Could it be that the other party was in the Peak Legendary Stage?
"How are your injuries?"
Jenn asked after shifting his gaze away from Pattilina.
Upon hearing his words, Pattilina gritted her teeth.
"Don't worry, Master, it's just a small injury.
I'll be able to recover in two days at most. By then, I'll be able to teach that damn bastard a lesson!
If I wasn't careless, how would I have been ambushed by that guy?
Does he really think he's something?!
Damn it, I didn't expect that guy to become so strong. If I had known earlier, I would have blasted him to death … "
"You know him?"
Upon hearing Pattilina's complaints, Jenn was taken aback.
On the other hand, Pattilina blinked in surprise and replied.
"You know him too, Master. He's Alexander."
"… You mean to say that it was Alexander who beat you up like this?"
Upon hearing this, Jenn couldn't help but be surprised.
He knew Alexander's strength better than anyone else. He was basically useless. Later on, he heard that Alexander escaped from the Church of Holy Church's prison and brought some trouble to Jenn.
But after that, Jenn threw this guy to the back of his head. He didn't expect this guy to come to his territory to find trouble with him. And judging from his appearance, he was actually able to fight Pattilina to this extent. Could it be that he was the protagonist of some novel who received the power of an imprisoned senior for 60 years in the Church of Holy Church's prison and learned some Star Swallowing Technique?
What exactly is going on?
