The story of the black silk female knight

But Valensa held back, remained calm, and continued to observe.

The two Star-level powerhouses, one fat and one thin, roughly observed the military camp and granary in Bizk Town. They were clearly very surprised and soon began to have a heated exchange.

Valensa quickly rubbed the tablet screen with her index finger and thumb, pulling it from the inside out to zoom in on the faces of the two beasts, trying to decipher what they were saying by reading their mouths.

Lip reading was also one of the elective courses in the elite department. Valensa attended a few classes, and although her grades weren't outstanding, she could still understand the general meaning.

Unfortunately, after zooming in on a portion of the image, Valensa realized she couldn't understand what the two beasts, one fat and one thin, were saying at all.

Under the strong advocacy of humans, the Wild Beasts were classified as natural disasters and were not considered intelligent life forms. They did not have the right to communicate equally with other intelligent races on the continent, and naturally, they did not speak a common language.

The beast assassin who infiltrated the War Academy's trial labyrinth last year to carry out the assassination must have been a special individual trained specifically for the mission, which is why he speaks fluent Common Tongue.

These two powerful Star-level beast warriors, one fat and one thin, not only couldn't speak the common language, but it seemed that their races didn't even have a unified language, and they communicated using various hand gestures.

This made Valensa even more disgusted and contemptuous of the Beastmen.

How can a race that doesn't even have a unified language among its upper echelons be called intelligent beings?

However, thanks to the fact that the two beasts, one fat and one thin, used gestures to communicate, Valensa was able to roughly guess some of their meaning through the gestures, which was then confirmed by their subsequent actions.

More wild beasts emerged from the tunnels, loading bags of wheat and corn flour from the granary onto flatbed carts or carrying them on their shoulders to transport them into the tunnels.

Meanwhile, the two Star-level wild beasts, one fat and one thin, led an elite squad of more than 10 wild beasts and quickly moved westward along the official road.

Those who remained in Bizk Town to continue transporting food were only ordinary beast warriors and the giant tunnel worm with Star-level strength.

Upon seeing this, Valensa quickly took out a magic scroll, opened it, and wrote a few words on the scroll according to the agreed-upon code.

[Option 2, West]

This was a contingency plan she developed with the command center before the operation began, with Tia's help.

The main purpose is to predict the actions that the two Star-level Wild Beast experts will take after entering Bizk Town, and to formulate and prepare corresponding plans in advance.

Judging from the hand gestures the fat and thin beasts exchanged earlier and their current actions, Valensa believes they intend to launch a surprise attack on the third fortress west of Bizk Town, joining forces with the beast army outside the fortress to launch a pincer attack, completely breaching the large fortress and allowing more beasts to enter Fran to plunder.

The operation was completely within Valensa and Tia's expectations, and the command center had been preparing for it for nearly half an hour, so there shouldn't be any major problems.

Chapter 65 Gu, delicious!

Two Star-level experts leading an elite squad of more than ten people constitute a formidable fighting force.

Being caught off guard by this force from the rear, even the largest and strongest fortress on the Franco border would be in danger of falling.

But being prepared is another matter entirely.

Wild beasts are weakened on lands blessed by the Sun Goddess. For humans of the same Star-level strength, as long as the original difference in strength is not too great, they can win a one-on-one fight against wild beasts.

Furthermore, Valensa also provided a detailed report on the weaknesses and fighting styles of the two Star-level beasts, Fat and Thin, based on her memories from the reset future.

If, despite being well-prepared and possessing the advantages of terrain and intelligence, these two wild beasts still manage to successfully raid the fortress, the officers in command could hang a large wooden sign around their necks that says "I am useless" and then kneel in the central square of the capital to apologize and commit suicide.

Valensa felt a little regretful that she couldn't kill the fat, unruly beast with her own hands, but Valensa was always a rational person. She had more important things to do, so after reporting the whereabouts of the fat and thin beasts to the command center, she stopped paying attention to them.

Her attention was entirely focused on the Star-level tunnel worm.

Seeing that the ordinary wild beasts had already carried away quite a lot of food, and that the first batch of wild beasts transporting the food were probably about to exit to the other side of the tunnel, Valensa began her operation.

She made no attempt to conceal her movements, charging forward from over ten kilometers away, like a free female knight from some strange anime in her past life, rushing towards the tunnel worm.

The tunnel worms and the remaining beast warriors quickly discovered Valensa.

At first, the beast warriors were wary and assumed a fighting stance, but they quickly put down their weapons and continued to carry food.

Because Valensa's charge was so foolish, she actually rushed straight into the tunnel worm's mouth and was swallowed up by the worm without being able to launch any attack.

Even the tunnel worm was somewhat bewildered... How could food jump into its mouth by itself? Before it could even take a couple of bites with its large, round mouth and sharp teeth, the food burrowed deep into its body.

It felt a bit strange, but the tunnel worm didn't pay any attention to it.

It felt no threat from Valensa and was confident in its powerful digestive abilities.

Valensa certainly didn't actually offer herself up as a freebie; she simply chose the method that would kill the tunnel worms the fastest.

This Star-level tunnel worm doesn't seem to have the domain that a monster lord should have, but its physical strength is far greater than that of an ordinary Star-level monster.

Especially its outer shell, which has a defensive capability comparable to the scales of a Moon-class dragon. Even pseudo-treasures like Moon Kiss and cross-handled lightsabers are extremely difficult to scratch from the outside.

In that reset future, Valensa wouldn't have been able to deal with the tunnel worm if she hadn't entered a state of perfect evil godhood in her extreme anger after losing Tia.

Fortunately, Valensa had consumed the soul of the Donkey-Faced Beast in that future. Although her perfect evil god state and the power she absorbed disappeared with the reset of time, the memories and knowledge she gained from devouring the soul were preserved intact.

As the controller of the tunnel worms, the Donkey-faced Skinny Beast naturally knew their weaknesses.

The tunnel worm's body is also very hard inside, and it has digestive juices that can break down most substances, but it also has its core.

It was a round ball the size of a watermelon, looking somewhat like a green pearl. It was not only the source of all the power of the tunnel worm, but also the vessel of the tunnel worm's soul.

The donkey-faced, skinny beast was swallowed by the tunnel worm, and then used a secret technique on the core to turn the tunnel worm into a monster under its control.

According to medical terms, this core functions as both the heart and the brain, only its manifestation is somewhat fantastical.

In Valensa's view, the sphere was more like the inner core of a monster in a fantasy novel from her past life, not only the most important thing on the monster's body, but also a great tonic.

However, the inner core is also the most powerful weapon of many monsters, and this core seems to be the same. Its surface is protected by an energy layer that is almost solidified, making its defense terrifyingly high.

Even the pseudo-Noble Phantasm Moon Kiss and the cross-handled lightsaber are completely unable to break through its defenses.

Let alone a lighthouse-level warrior, even if a regular star-level warrior came in, they probably wouldn't be able to do anything about this core... They would either try to break through and escape, or they would be killed by the digestive fluid.

Without hesitation, Valensa immediately took out a soul crystal the size of a candy and ate it, putting herself into the state of an evil god.

This is Valensa's only way to destroy the tunnel worm's core—by eating it.

The Abyss Legion, to which Valensa's mother belonged, was clearly a group of gluttonous evil gods.

According to Shira, Valensa's eating is a conceptual law-level attack, which can only be defended against by means of the same law level; otherwise, no matter how strong the energy, it is useless.

After Sylvanas reverted to her Tentacle Princess form, Valensa easily devoured Sylvanas's powerful tentacles. Afterward, Sylvanas was unable to use divine magic to quickly recover and could only slowly heal her wounds.

Even the bald-headed principal didn't dare to be bitten by Valensa when he was giving her special training... This was the strongest in Fran, who could crush a Star-level being into a soul crystal with his bare hands.

"Aww!"

Valensa opened her mouth and bit down on the core of the tunnel worm.

The incredibly strong solid energy layer was completely ineffective; a piece of the core was bitten off and was happily devoured by Valensa.

Despite its ugly appearance, Valensa thinks the core flavor of this tunnel worm is alright. Its texture and taste are very similar to maltose, very sweet, but a bit sticky.

But it wasn't a big problem. Valensa quickened her chewing speed, swallowed the core in a few bites, and then took another bite, gnawing away and eating faster and faster.

The tunnel worm was not unaware that its core was being devoured piece by piece.

It screamed madly, rolling around on the ground and crushing countless ordinary wild beasts, but it did nothing to alleviate its pain.

The wild beasts that managed to stay far away were all bewildered. They didn't know what had happened, and they had no idea how to help or solve the problem.

But they will soon no longer have to worry about this problem.

In less than three minutes, the giant tunnel worm, which had just been swaggering and full of momentum, completely lost its life and became motionless.

Biologically speaking, the tunnel worm's body remains intact, but the core that carries its soul has completely become the food of the gluttonous evil god.

"Gum, delicious."

After enjoying a delicious meal, Valensa wiped her mouth, then took out a golden card that Tia had given her. She swiped it lightly on her lower abdomen like a magnetic card, and the divine magic seal within her body was repaired and recharged, resealing her evil god power and pulling her out of her evil god state.

Chapter 66 The Art of Explosion

Most magical arts and contracts that control monsters establish a connection between the controller and the monster.

Just like dragon knights and dragons, the closer the connection between the two, the stronger their fighting power.

However, overly close relationships can also have side effects—for example, if one party dies completely, the other party will also be severely affected, or they may even die together.

This also applies to wild beasts.

As Valensa devoured the tunnel worm's core, the lean beast, which was preparing to launch an attack on the third fortress from behind, suddenly shuddered and spat out a mouthful of blood.

His already long face, which resembled a donkey's, seemed to grow even longer.

The fat beast and the other elite beast warriors were all surprised. Their expressions changed drastically when they saw the thin beast weakly and feebly making a few hand gestures.

They immediately went into battle mode, but suddenly felt a chill in the air.

The temperature in northern France in late autumn is indeed not high, and in the desolate lands it can drop to minus 20 degrees Celsius in winter. The wild beasts wear only animal skins and rags all year round, making them a very cold-resistant race.

However, even the elite warriors of this cold-resistant race, who were at the Lighthouse level, were frozen to the point of being unable to move in the sudden drop in temperature within seconds. The two weakest warriors had their bodies begin to freeze over, and their life force was greatly weakened.

Without a doubt, this was not a change in weather, but an attack by some kind of extremely powerful ice magic!

The few remaining elite warriors of the wild beasts who could still move managed to look up at the sky and saw a petite, blue-haired human woman in a white robe floating about seven or eight hundred meters above the ground.

Wild beasts and humans have different aesthetic standards. They don't know if this petite woman is beautiful, but they are deeply impressed by her eyes, which are like stars in the night sky.

Ice-blue, incomparably beautiful, yet seemingly capable of freezing everything.

A secret technique with power approaching that of a legendary ice spell – Demon Eye: Glacier.

Click.

The few elite warriors of the wild beasts who could barely look up at the sky turned into ice sculptures and shattered into ice shards after staring directly into those demonic eyes.

The ferocious beast squad, which had come with great momentum to launch a sneak attack from the rear and breach the fortress, was reduced to only the strongest, fatest beast, in a single encounter.

It is not only strong, but also has a lot of combat experience and is very aware of its own limitations.

After realizing that it had been attacked by ice magic, the fat beast did not bother to find out who attacked it or where it was. It simply wrapped itself in a layer of fire energy to resist the cold, and while taking a deep breath, it rammed into the direction of Fortress No. 3.

Its pufferfish-like body grew larger and larger in the air, expanding to more than a third in less than five seconds.

"Is this the self-destruction that Valensa saw in the Apocalypse? Hmm... very strong energy. If we were caught off guard, it would indeed cause us huge losses, but now... humph."

A very handsome man with silver hair and red eyes suddenly appeared in mid-air, sneering as he pointed a finger at the fat beast.

An irregularly shaped spatial portal immediately appeared in front of the fat beast, and on the other side of the portal was a vast and boundless night sky.

The fat beast suddenly stopped in mid-air, seemingly trying to bypass the spatial gate and continue its self-destruction attack on Fortress No. 3. However, the spatial gate suddenly generated a huge gravitational force, like a black hole swallowing celestial bodies, and sucked the fat beast in.

Approximately three seconds later.

boom!

A massive explosion suddenly occurred thousands of meters in the sky, the bright flames turning the night into day, as magnificent as the magical fireworks that lit up the night sky of the capital during the New Year.

"Truly worthy of being called the strategist."

Amidst the dazzling fireworks, the petite blue-haired woman who had been floating in mid-air gracefully flew to the side of the handsome silver-haired, red-eyed man, holding the hem of his white robe with both hands, and performed a curtsy.

"Thank you for your timely support... Without you, we would have had a really hard time dealing with this self-destruction. Even if we could have stopped it, the losses would have been huge, and we might have let those lowly beasts outside the fortress break in."

"You're too kind, Mrs. Sharon."

Tia's biological father also returned the greeting in a very dashing manner:

"Fighting against the calamities of wild beasts is my duty as a soldier of the Fran. But Madam, your magic eyes are still as captivating as ever, beautiful and powerful."

I'm the one who should be saying thank you, Mrs. Sharon. You've been retired for many years, yet you still selflessly returned to the battlefield.

"No, no, I should be the one saying thank you."

The petite, blue-haired woman smiled again, modestly and elegantly.

"Thank you, strategist, for giving me this opportunity to personally turn these lowly creatures who injured my precious daughter into ice shards."

. . . . .

While Tia's father and Gina's mother worked together to deal with the fat and thin beasts, Valensa's operation continued as planned.

After the tunnel worms died, the wild beasts left in Bizk Town were completely helpless against Valensa. They could only watch as the black-stockinged, long-legged female knight rampaged through the tunnels they had come from.

Valensa moved swiftly through the tunnels, killing any beast warriors that blocked her way and ignoring those that weren't.

While maintaining her high-speed sprint, she also controlled the six floating blades that the alloy round shield split into, shuttling back and forth throughout the tunnel.

They weren't taking the lives of ordinary wild beast warriors, but attacking the sacks of grain.

Valensa's earlier suggestion to the command headquarters to burn the meat and vegetables stored in Bizk Town, leaving only wheat flour and corn flour for the beasts, was not merely to cause malnutrition in the beasts.

Because of the widespread use of magic and various secret arts, the development of science and technology in fields such as physics and chemistry has been slow in this world.

A piece of common knowledge that most high school students knew in Valencia's previous life is something that few people in this world know.
