The shuttle in the second dimension

　Lin Xuan and Subaru followed Rem to an open space in the forest, and the missing children were lying weakly on the lawn of the open space.

　"It's the children!" Subaru ran over in a panic, carefully confirming the safety of the children.

　"Alive, they are still alive! I finally caught up with them!" Subaru shouted with joy and sat down on the lawn.

　"No, the children are not in a good condition. They must have been cursed. If we continue like this, something bad will happen." Compared to Subaru, Rem's examination was obviously more detailed and he noticed the abnormality of the children at once.

　"Damn it!" Subaru angrily punched the lawn with his fist and said through gritted teeth.

　"If my sister were here, she could lift the curse. My words can only temporarily alleviate their situation." Biting her lower lip, Rem said unwillingly.

　"Two are missing." Just when Rem and Subaru were worrying about the curse on the children, Lin Xuan suddenly said.

　"What did you say?" Subaru stared at Lin Xuan blankly, not understanding for a moment, but not long after, as if he remembered something, Subaru looked at the children lying on the ground with a pale face.

　"Really—two missing!"

Chapter 21 Encountering Warcraft

　"Really - two are missing!" he said with a pale face, glancing around hurriedly.

　"Rem, you wait here. I think the villagers will be here soon. Then we can ask them to send these children to the mansion to lift the curse for them." As he spoke, Lin Xuan's eyes changed as if he had made a decision.

　"As for Subaru and I, we'll go find the remaining two children first." Lin Xuan looked at Subaru, whose face was pale. "What's wrong? Are you scared?"

　"I'm so scared~~ My legs are shaking~~~" Subaru smiled bitterly and clenched his fists, "But there are still two little devils waiting for us to save~~~"

　Lin Xuan and Subaru reached an agreement, but Rem didn't think so.

　"This is too dangerous! Maybe those two children have been taken away by monsters." Rem knew that Lin Xuan had some strength, but if he went deeper, he would definitely encounter monsters. At that time, facing such a large number of monsters, how could he cope with it?

　"Those two children may not have died. They've already come this far. I can't just give up like that. Don't worry, Subaru and I will be careful."

　"You will lose your life if you do this." Holding Lin Xuan's sleeve, Rem said lightly.

　"Maybe." Lin Xuan murmured and let out a long breath.

　"But I still want to try." As he said that, Lin broke away from Rem's hand and took Subaru and the other one deeper into the forest.

　But before leaving, Lin Xuan paused, smiled and said to Rem behind him, "Don't worry, I will come back alive, after all-"

　"—I haven't finished learning those words yet."

　Looking at Lin Xuan's leaving back, Rem lowered his head and murmured.

　"."

　-

　After entering the forest, Lin Xuan and Subaru kept searching around until they both smelled a bad smell.

　"The smell of a wild beast!?" They looked at each other and said in unison.

　"In front!" they shouted, and both of them walked forward with light steps.

　Pushing aside the grass in front of them, Lin Xuan and Subaru both saw four children's feet exposed next to a huge dead tree.

　"You go and look after those two kids later. I'll be on guard around here."

　"Okay." Without hesitation, Subaru agreed to Lin Xuan's proposal.

　"Go!" With a low shout, Lin Xuan rushed out first.

　After leaving the bushes, Lin Xuan immediately connected the black knife in his hand, allowing the dark power to attach to the blade.

　After Lin Xuan rushed out, Subaru also rushed out immediately. He quickly came to the two children and checked their vital status.

　"The children are fine for now!" Subaru said to Lin Xuan behind him, and carried the two children in each hand...

　At this moment, Lin Xuan heard a noise not far away and immediately warned Subaru behind him, "The monster is coming! Be careful."

　As soon as Lin Xuan finished speaking, a magical beast walked out from the grass, its eyes filled with brutality and cruelty staring at Lin Xuan and Subaru behind him.

　"Is this the Warcraft?" Muttering, Lin Xuan rushed to the front of the Warcraft in one step. Before the Warcraft could react, he cut the Warcraft in half with a diagonal cut from bottom to top.

　laugh--! !

　As the blood splattered, Lin Xuan leaped back a step to avoid the blood splashing towards him.

　"Awesome!" Seeing Lin Xuan solve the monster in one go, Subaru couldn't help but praise him, and at the same time, the tension in his heart was relieved a lot. But just after a while, Subaru relaxed and became nervous again. He saw pairs of scarlet eyes lit up in the darkness in front of him. At a glance, there were at least a dozen pairs.

　“No way… so many!?” Subaru widened his eyes and felt his legs go weak.

　"Tsk! There are too many." Lin Xuan smacked his lips, glanced at Subaru behind him, and said to him, "I'll cover the rear, you take those two children and return the way you came."

　"Then what are you going to do? Can you handle so many?"

　"How would I know?" Lin Xuan curled his lips and said impatiently, "You should run away first. Otherwise, I will have to protect you later, which will be troublesome."

　"I understand." At this point, Subaru no longer cared about the situation and agreed to Lin Xuan's proposal.

　"Okay, then wait and listen to my instructions."

　"Hmm." Subaru responded softly, half-crouching down, ready to run away at any time.

　Elsewhere, looking at the pairs of crimson eyes in the darkness, Lin Xuan could feel his heart pounding. Even though he had just easily defeated the demon beast, this was only his second battle. It was impossible not to feel panicked. However, beneath that panic, Lin Xuan found himself excited.

　"What a strange feeling." Muttering, Lin Xuan half-crouched down, ready to sprint at any time.

　"Subaru, run!" While shouting at Subaru, Lin Xuan suddenly rushed out and rushed towards the group of magical beasts rushing out from the darkness.

　After hearing Lin Xuan's roar, Subaru immediately retreated along the same route. Subaru was such a large target that the monsters could certainly see him, but whenever a monster rushed towards Subaru, Lin Xuan would focus on dealing with the "unsociable" monsters. Although his destructive power allowed him to easily cut through the monsters' bodies, their number was still too great, and Lin Xuan had no way of dealing with them all. Not to mention the scratches on his body, even on Subaru's side, one or two monsters broke through Lin Xuan's blockade and followed the direction Subaru had left.

　"Tsk, one or two of them still ran away." Lin Xuan frowned after glancing at the direction Subaru left. Just when Lin Xuan wanted to chase after them to deal with those monsters, he heard several wailings of monsters from the direction Subaru left. Lin Xuan knew Subaru's ability. If he was alone, he might be able to beat one or two monsters, but if he was with two children, he would definitely not be able to beat them. So the only one who could make those monsters that chased him wail was Rem.

　Just as Lin Xuan expected, the person who killed the chasing monsters was Rem.

　Accompanied by the sound of chains colliding, a sphere with sharp thorns passed by Lin Xuan's eyes and directly killed the monsters that pounced on Lin Xuan.

　With a horizontal slash, he killed the monster that rushed from the right. Lin Xuan looked at Rem who was rushing behind him and said, "You're here, Rem."

　"Lin Xuan, are you okay?" Looking at the clothes that were half stained red, Rem frowned.

　"It's okay, they're just superficial injuries, the wounds aren't deep." Lin Xuan grinned and said in a nonchalant manner.

　"By the way, how's Subaru doing?"

　"I have already pointed out the direction of the village to him, but the two children are too heavy for him, so it may take him a little longer to get to the village. But I am worried that other monsters will appear along the way." While using the meteor hammer in his hand to deal with the monsters that were rushing towards him, Rem answered Lin Xuan's question.

　"Is that so? Then let's go find him."

　"it is good."

　After reaching an agreement, Lin Xuan and Rem took action separately. Rem slammed the meteor hammer into the ground, and the flying rocks and smoke instantly obscured the vision of the monsters. Lin Xuan quickly cut down the surrounding trees, putting them between them and the monsters.

　"Let's go!" In the smoke and dust, the two looked at each other and immediately evacuated the place.

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

　In the pitch-black forest, two figures were swiftly moving through the trees, and behind them, a group of bloodthirsty and violent monsters were chasing them relentlessly.

　The two figures constantly shuttling back and forth in the forest were none other than Rem and Lin Xuan. After they created obstacles and evacuated, they had not run far when the monsters caught up with them.

　"Damn it! Why are there so many of them?" With a low growl, Lin Xuan turned around, and the knife in his hand turned into a black shadow, cutting the monster that pounced on him from behind in half.

　Rem did not complain like Lin Xuan, but focused on clearing out the monsters.

　"I see Subaru." Soon, the two of them found Subaru carrying two children in front of them. Carrying two children and running in the forest was too much of a burden for Subaru, causing him to start running out of physical strength.

　"Are you okay? Can you hold on?" Lin Xuan kicked away the monster that was trying to bite his thigh and turned around to ask Subaru, who was already panting beside him.

　"I - ha - I'm okay, there's a fire ahead, we're almost there." Subaru said breathlessly, pointing to the fire not far away.

　"Okay!" Seeing the fire not far away, Lin Xuan's heart slowly calmed down. However, a thought suddenly emerged in his mind: "Did I forget something?"

　Just as Lin Xuan was wondering if he had forgotten something, he suddenly felt a strange fluctuation. The feeling was like the one he had when he saw Emilia or Parker use magic.

　"I remember now, that dog can do magic!" Thinking of this, Lin Xuan suddenly raised his head, and then he saw that the monsters had retreated to the sides at some point. At the same time, a violent mudslide rushed towards Lin Xuan and the others, as if to completely devour them.

　"Damn it!" Lin Xuan growled grimly, kicking Subaru aside and simultaneously pushing Rem, who had also noticed the mudslide. However, by the time Lin Xuan had finished all this, he had lost time to escape. The next moment, the raging mudslide swallowed him whole.

　"Lin Xuan!" Looking at Lin Xuan who was swallowed by the mudslide, Rem got up from the ground and shouted loudly.

　The mudslide had come and gone quickly. When it dissipated, Lin Xuan lay like a corpse on the cold ground, his body covered in wounds. The knife that should have been in his hand had been swept three or four meters away by the mudslide.

　"Lin Xuan?" Looking at Lin Xuan lying motionless on the ground, Rem called out in panic.

　As if he heard Rem's call, Lin Xuan, who was lying motionless, moved a little.

　"Hmm--" Lin Xuan groaned softly and staggered to his feet from the ground.

　"Hmm, what happened?" He looked around blankly, unable to think of anything. His head felt like a mess.

　"It seems like someone is calling me, who is it?" Lin Xuan seemed to hear someone calling him vaguely, but he could not make out who was calling him or what they were saying.

　"My head seems a little wet." He reached out and touched the wet spot on his head.

　"It's blood, it seems like there's a lot of it." Lin Xuan muttered to himself as he looked at his bloody right hand. He was clearly seriously injured, but now it felt like he wasn't the one injured. He wondered if there was something wrong with his brain.

　"I remember what I just did..." Just as Lin Xuan was trying hard to remember what happened before, he suddenly felt a strong force acting on his body, pushing him out.

　boom--!

　Falling heavily to the ground, Lin Xuan suddenly felt like he was about to fall apart.

　"Who—" He was about to scold whoever had pushed him away for no reason, but as soon as Lin Xuan raised his head, the scene that greeted him made the words of rebuke stuck in his throat like a fishbone, unable to come out. At the same time, Lin Xuan's previously confused mind suddenly cleared up.

　Rem was lying powerlessly at the place where Lin Xuan had been, with five or six magical beasts biting her.

　"Rem!!!" The scene in front of him made Lin Xuan feel as if his head was about to explode. An indescribable anger suddenly rose in his heart, and his blue eyes were instantly filled with violence. He stood up and pulled out the black knife that was inserted not far away.

　"Get out of my way! You beasts!" Lin Xuan roared and swung the black knife in his hand with all his might.

　The next moment, a pitch-black torrent, like the anger in Lin Xuan's heart, continued to burst out from the black knife. In an instant, the monsters and trees around that were waiting for an opportunity turned into nothingness in this torrent. Even the monsters that were biting Rem felt the horror of the pitch-black torrent and all fled with their tails between their legs.

　"Rem!?" After the anger, a strong sense of uneasiness filled Lin Xuan's heart, and he crawled towards Rem.

　He picked up Rem who was lying on the ground. At this time, the scarlet blood had soaked most of Rem's clothes. The wounds on her body that were deep enough to see the bones made it clear how bad her condition was. There were even one or two vital points bitten by those monsters. If those monsters had continued to bite, Rem might have been beyond saving.

　"Are you okay?" Rem opened his eyes weakly, his voice full of weakness.
