Erii: A Journey Through the Heavens Begins with Frilian

bang——

Several snake-dogs were hiding behind rocks on the hillside. After the convoy had passed halfway, they plunged straight down from the side, crashing into the jeep where Ran Bing was and causing it to overturn.

Because she was also sniping the pack of snake dogs behind her, Ran Bing, who was trying to stay upright, lost her grip and flew out through the gap in the roll cage.

A snake-dog greedily opened its mouth, its whiskers on both sides of its neck glowing with an excited blue light; it couldn't wait to absorb Ran Bing's life essence.

boom!

Although panicked, Ran Bing remained calm as she was thrown into the air. She turned sideways and pulled the trigger of the sniper rifle in her arms, and an armor-piercing bullet pierced the gaping maw that was right in front of her.

Its fragile body was shredded, and the snake-dog flew out with a mournful howl.

But just as Ran Bing was rolling and losing strength, another snake-dog darted out from the side, its huge paw about to slam down vertically.

"Ran Bing!" Mark shouted hoarsely as he witnessed this scene.

Unfortunately, they were too far away to provide timely assistance.

Erica wanted to blast the snake-dog away with her machine gun, but her position was too awkward. If she turned the gun, the dense barrage of palm-sized bullets would inevitably turn the convoy into sieves first.

"Feixue, it's up to you!" she called out in a clear voice.

Feixue remained silent. In her haste, she couldn't guarantee a fatal shot, but she couldn't just stand by and watch her friend die through her scope.

But the next instant, her pupils contracted sharply, and she whispered in disbelief, "What?"

A red-haired girl with a calm and innocent look jumped out from the stone pillar behind Ran Bing.

She strolled leisurely, her clothes fluttering in the breeze.

Without hesitation, Feixue pulled the trigger.

boom--

"Um?!"

Sensing a fragrant yet chilly breeze, Ran Bing turned her head to look, the hem of her shrine maiden's dress brushing against her cheek.

hum-

Tsukuyomi was drawn from its sheath and swept upwards.

The snake-dog was split in two with a whoosh.

The blade rotates 90 degrees to the left.

With a clang, the massive bullet struck Tsukuyomi's blade, but was smoothly cleaved in two.

call!

Erii leaped up, her blade flashing like flowing clouds, her figure darting rapidly between the rock walls on either side.

As she landed steadily back in front of the stunned Ran Bing, the heads and limbs of the attacking snake dogs were all severed.

Upon arriving in this unfamiliar world, Erii didn't speak first when she met strangers; she simply looked at Ranbing calmly.

To be precise, she wasn't looking at Ran Bing either.

【guide

Anime protagonist - Ran Bing

The hunter's lieutenant, a reliable and kind-hearted outstanding warrior, and also the girl the male protagonist deeply loves.

Erii accurately captured the two keywords: "protagonist" and "kindness".

Yes, they are trustworthy.

Human nature is unpredictable, but thankfully there is a guide.

"Come with me!"

Ran Bing reacted quickly, grabbed Erii's wrist, and pulled her onto the back of a truck.

Although everyone was shocked and bewildered by the unexpected and incredibly powerful savior, the current situation was not suitable for sitting down to discuss the matter, so the convoy continued to speed along.

Mark, relieved, followed and gradually distanced himself from the pack of snakes and dogs.

The convoy quickly moved away from the valley area and stretched into a straight line across the vast, flat wasteland.

"I hit the target," Feixue muttered softly.

"Yes, I saw it," Erica said.

Mark also knew that even without Erii's intervention, Feixue's shot could have pierced Snake Dog's head.

However, none of them were heartless; they remained grateful to Erii, since in this apocalyptic world where everyone was in danger, there was no need for others to risk their lives.

After the crisis was over, everyone's tense nerves relaxed, but they quickly tensed up again.

Because from the upper class who hunted in the wilderness to the common people who toiled like cattle, they all belatedly realized a big problem—wait, are there survivors on the ground?!

After arriving at a familiar temporary encampment, the convoy stopped to rest.

The ordinary soldiers were well-trained and deployed in a dispersed manner, but they would occasionally turn their heads and cast glances of either amazement or confusion.

The dust people also gathered together to rest, and of course, their conversation revolved around Erii.

"I thought Lieutenant Ran Bing was beautiful enough," an old man with glasses said in a low voice, "I never imagined there were such beautiful women in the world, like the big stars of the old world."

"0609, what are you bragging about? Have you ever seen a star from the old world?" someone said with a sneer.

The old man pushed up his glasses, clicked his tongue, and said, "What do you know! Did I watch all those DVDs for nothing?"

He said earnestly, "Did you see her skills? It was like something out of a martial arts movie. I've encountered such a formidable character before..."

"0609, you've seen a lot. What do you think this woman's background is? Didn't the city lord say that there are no survivors left on the surface?" someone else asked.

The old man stroked his chin seriously, frowning thoughtfully. "I don't know either."

Everyone scoffed in unison and instinctively stuck their heads out.

hiss~~~

Hot air gushed out as three heavy-duty slats opened the lid.

Mark, a man of mixed race and with a burly build, approached Ran Bing first and asked with concern, "Are you alright?"

Ran Bing smiled and shook her head, "It's nothing."

Erica, with her short pink hair, leaned closer, curiously looking Erii up and down. "Wow! You're so fair-skinned~ So beautiful!"

She is a petite, legally-born Lolita, but has a curvaceous figure that belies her height and appearance.

Feixue, with short purple hair, also quietly entered the crowd, her eyes behind the metal mask staring straight at the honest and unassuming Erii.

At this moment, several core members of the Hunters also gathered around. Mo Cheng, with his black hair and black eyes and handsome appearance, Jeff, an experienced veteran, and others all looked at Erii, who seemed to be preparing to climb the mountain, with complicated expressions.

"Thank you for saving me," Mark said hesitantly, "You..."

Erii interrupted him, countering with questions like, "Where is this? Who are you? What are those monsters?"

"Huh?" Mark paused, a look of pure confusion on his face, a kind of simple honesty after his cerebral cortex had been smoothed out.

The surrounding chatter vanished instantly, and everyone looked at each other in bewilderment.

Ran Bing and Erica exchanged a glance, and the former asked in surprise, "Are you talking about the specific coordinates here? We are the Wasteland Hunters, from the Lighthouse... Uh, those monsters? You mean the Devouring Beasts? You don't know them?"

Erii thought for a moment, then asked, "Is this Earth? What are you doing? What are Devouring Beasts?"

Well, even Ran Bing was speechless. The room was completely silent, and her rapidly working brain suddenly went blank.

After hearing the next three questions, Mark felt as if his brain had melted into water and flowed out of his ears, and he had no idea how to answer them.

Erica rubbed her lower lip with her index finger and suddenly exclaimed, "I know! Have you lost your memory?"

Erii, who was about to say that she was a traveler, paused and then nodded.

She doesn't like lying, and besides, she came here as a tourist, but the other party insisted on saying that she had amnesia, so be it.

After all, amnesia seems more acceptable than the idea of ​​travel.
