"Okay~ I'll leave it to you."

After breakfast, the group packed up and went to the street together. Because everyone's appearance was outstanding, without the cover of the carriage, they attracted a lot of attention when walking on the street. However, no one came up to them to cause trouble. Most of them glanced at them with appreciation and then looked away, saving a lot of trouble. Occasionally, those who dared to stare at a few people were looked at by Eve with a kind look, and a little magic was used to solve the problem, so there was no commotion.

After all, this place is not like the elves, there are only women, so they will not attract any attention when walking on the street. It would be a bit annoying if a fly came up here.

However, after spending half a day in the alleys of the town, they encountered a very serious problem - there was really no place in this town suitable for killing time.

It's outrageous that a town that is sold as a tourist destination doesn't have any place worth visiting.

Rather than being a tourist town, this place is more like a large sanatorium that focuses on a happy atmosphere. It really has no appeal to people like them who have little pressure.

Especially when you know what might be wrong with this town, you have even less mood to enjoy it.

But on the other hand, Eve had an unexpected gain.

knock knock --

Looking at the guards in the distance knocking on doors of every house and asking something, Eve couldn't help but raise her eyebrows slightly.

It seems like something interesting has happened.

"You guys wait for me here, I'll go take a look."

After greeting a few people, Eve used Shadow Dive to disappear into the shadows under the eaves and moved towards the guards.

"Have you ever seen the Saint?"

"No."

"excuse me."

"Have you ever seen the Saint?"

……

After listening to several conversations in a row, the content of the conversations was almost the same. Unfortunately, the conversations between the two parties were very simple, without any more clues. It only further confirmed the existence of this saint, and the other party has now run away.

I just don't know whether the other party's sneaking away was due to rebellious psychology or there was some other hidden motive.

But no matter what, finding this saint should allow us to learn more about this town.

After making up her mind, Eve returned to the group and continued walking, chatting and laughing as before.

It is worth mentioning that the guard temporarily stopped asking about the whereabouts of the saint from house to house after seeing them approaching, and only continued after they had left for a considerable distance. It seemed that he did not want tourists like them to know the situation here.

I just don't know what means the other party used to find out that they were not residents here.

§50 Escape from Reincarnation

bump--

After slamming the door, Eve collapsed onto the large sofa in the villa without any image.

"It's so boring here... Let's finish the investigation and leave."

"Yeah... I don't see anything interesting at all."

Istina on the side also nodded in agreement. They had been wandering around the town all day, but now they couldn't think of anything worth recalling. It was like a replica of "listening to a person's words is like listening to a whole speech."

Then Eve looked in Lucia's direction again.

"Lucia, I'm sorry about this. Sister Eve will take you to other interesting places next time."

"Ah, no, it's okay, it's nice here too."

"But it's nothing compared to the elves. Anyway, we'll talk about it next time we have a chance."

After saying that, Eve suddenly stood up, completely dispelling her previous decadent look.

"Huh—Anyway, I'm going to continue investigating the so-called Saint. It feels like this place is intentionally trying to prevent outsiders like us from knowing about her existence."

"Master Brave, do you need our help?"

"Ah, no, no."

Eve waved her hand and summoned a butterfly in butterfly form with a flick of her finger.

"During the day, I secretly left many clones of Die'er in the town, so I can go out alone at night. Everyone, just think of it as coming here to relax."

"OK then."

Hearing that Eve had quietly made preparations, Istina no longer insisted and just nodded slightly. After all, she knew that her brave master didn't want her to get involved in anything that might target the human race.

If any trace of the devil's followers were really found in this town, it would not be a question of whether blood would be shed, but how much blood would be shed.

So after dinner, and after playing with a few people for a while, Eve left the villa again at about the same time as the previous day. Her goal tonight was to find out as much as possible about the saint and more information about this town.

"Die'er, I'll ask you to lead the way."

With a wave of her fingertips, she summoned a purple-black butterfly, and Eve's figure disappeared into the darkness. Although the guards had not yet arrived at their posts, it was better not to attract too much attention.

After gently flapping their wings a few times, under the cover of night, the man and the butterfly quietly left the town.

After Dier's investigation, Eve found that the town of Driss was really...interesting.

There were so many guards that they could be seen everywhere in the town late at night, but there was no prison-like building to be found. Even the shadow of the town manager was nowhere to be seen, at least not on the surface. This made Eve doubt the possibility that these buildings were located in a demiplane.

But this is a bit strange. Why would a small town deliberately hide these buildings in the demiplane?

After all, using a demiplane to do this kind of thing is not a little troublesome, it even feels a bit redundant, and there are certain risks involved. If the demiplane is destroyed by someone, the entire base will be wasted, and not even a sound will be heard.

But on the other hand, if you choose to do so, the security of some secrets will be well protected, at least it can avoid being discovered by most people.

The entrance to the demiplane is only that big. If someone is willing, it can be made smaller or opened only when needed. It is much easier to guard such a small entrance than to guard a building impenetrably.

Not to mention the distant consequences, it has already posed a not-so-small problem to Eve who wants to investigate this place. After all, so far she has not found any suspected demiplane entrance. If it were a bright building, she would probably be able to see her underwear in minutes.

"Hmm... I have absolutely no clue."

After running back and forth to several suspicious locations under the cover of night, Eve helplessly sat on the eaves of a house, overlooking the town that had fallen asleep below, and the guards on the street with happy smiles on their faces.

It seems that the secret here is probably really hidden in the demiplane, which is a bit difficult to deal with.

But at this moment, Dier suddenly received new news.

"Master, there's movement over there. Someone has opened a barrier. Do you want to go take a look?"

As she spoke, the butterfly flew gently in one direction a few times to indicate.

"Over there... I haven't been there yet, so let's go check it out."

As she spoke, Eve's figure disappeared into the shadows again and quickly moved in that direction.

—·—·—·—·—·—·—

"Hu-hu-hu-"

In the dark alley, a petite figure wrapped in a gray cloth that was torn from somewhere was running in the dark alley with all her might.

Although not as good as the pitch-black cloth, this gray cloth can at least conceal her figure in the dark night.

Although her breathing had long lost its rhythm and her steps were so weak that she seemed like she would fall at any moment, she still squeezed every bit of strength in her body and kept running.

Not far behind her, guards with happy smiles on their faces were slowly approaching her from all directions.

Although it was late at night and the noise she made during her escape was quite loud, no sound came from the surrounding houses, as if they were completely unaware of what was happening here.

At this moment, the only thing she could do was to continue to escape until dawn. By then, the guards would leave, and she would only need to avoid the attention of the residents in the town and take a rest. After all, they would not be able to capture her in such a high-profile manner during the day.

Although the cycle of pursuit and escape would resume again at night, there was always a moment of respite.

And in this town, this cycle of pursuit and escape has happened countless times, starting with her escaping with her own abilities and ending with her being caught again.

As for escaping from this town, it was impossible. She had tried various methods, but they all ended in her being caught. Moreover, these guards would come out and break her fantasy just when she was about to succeed, and over time she had given up on escaping from this town.

She didn't know why she had to endure all this, but if she didn't choose to escape, a nightmare-like experience would be waiting for her.

It was as if the darkest emotions hidden in the hearts of countless people were forced into her mind. An experience that would cause most people to collapse after just one encounter had been repeated countless times on her.

She didn't know how much longer she could hold on before finally collapsing, but it shouldn't be far off. Or, after experiencing so many nightmares, was she really still sane? Maybe she had already gone crazy.

If she had enough power in her hands, she might immediately destroy this town that brought her countless nightmares.

But in this endless despair, her ability gave her the last glimmer of hope and a chance to breathe in the nightmare, forcing her to continue to reincarnate in this nightmare.

"what--!"

With a scream, she missed a step and fell heavily against the wall in front of her.

"Is this the end of this time..."

Looking at the wall that was about to hit her, she gently closed her eyes and prepared to face the pain.

After running for so long, she no longer had the strength to support her body.

But at this moment, an arm suddenly stretched out from the shadows on the side and pulled her in.

When the guards arrived, all they saw was a dark, deserted alley...

§51 Rescue

knock --

Reaching out and gently tapping the space in front of her, Eve looked at the invisible barrier rippling like water waves, gently closed her eyes and quickly analyzed the effect of the barrier in front of her.

"Hmm... the main function is isolation, right? It also has the effect of repelling ordinary people, and it also has a concealing effect on the barrier itself, and..."

As she spoke, Eve looked at the ground beneath her feet, or rather the mottled bricks and stones, with an inexplicable look.

"It seems that other places have already set up this kind of magic array."

The other party's method was very clever. He hid the patterns of the magic circle on some ordinary bricks and stones. If it was not activated, it would not attract anyone's attention at all. It can be said to be hiding a tree in a forest.

"But it's not difficult to get in."

When Eve opened her eyes again, she raised her palm and silently cut a gap in the translucent barrier in front of her, enough for one person to pass through. Then she and Dier entered the barrier together. A purple-black butterfly in the barrier also flapped its wings and came to Eve, gently rubbing her cheek.

As for Dier, who was originally following Eve, she looked angry and kept trying to pull herself away from Eve's cheek.

"Okay, okay, thank you for your hard work."

After gently touching the two beautiful butterflies, Eve's gaze shifted in a certain direction.

"Over there..."

Hearing the chaotic footsteps not too big or too small, but quite noticeable in the silent night, Eve jumped lightly and jumped onto the eaves of a house.

"Wow, this is a real horror game."

Eve frowned slightly as she looked at the group of guards not far away who were smiling happily and quietly moving towards a certain direction.

If it was just a little scary for these guys to stand there, then the scene before them was an out-and-out horror game. Although it was a rather old-fashioned one, it was effective.

Just like when playing games sometimes, even if you know that you will be attacked next, you will still be afraid.

"They seem to be chasing something."

Eve raised her eyebrows as she felt the chaotic footsteps coming from the direction of the guards' encirclement.

It seems that she is lucky today. Maybe she can directly know some things hidden behind this town.

It turned out to be the right move to release a large number of Dier's clones during the day to cast a wide net.

"Shadow Dive"

Turning into a black shadow again and disappearing into the shadows, Eve's figure quickly chased in the direction of the footsteps before the guards.

"Hmm? A little girl?"

Eve raised an eyebrow at the petite figure wrapped in gray running. Why were the guards chasing a little girl like this? Could she have some secret?

But no matter what, the other party was the first person Eve had seen in this city who did not have that weird happy smile on his face, so she still had to rescue him. As for whether the other party was hiding any secrets, there was no rush to make plans later.

Following the direction of the other person's running, Eve circled in front of the girl and hid in the shadow of the corner, ready to pull her in directly when the other person passed by, and then take her out of the barrier and back into the villa, so as to avoid being discovered by the guards behind. However, plans can never keep up with changes.

"what--!"
