The legend of the Crimson Demon clan started from Suqing.

Chapter 197 Can you perform that again? That's it.

"Hey, hey, hey, is this true?"

Sato Kazuma looked at the slime that was getting bigger and bigger, his mouth opened wider and wider, and he involuntarily took several steps back.

"Zun Zun, please think of something..."

"Light of Saber!"

Before he could finish, bright lightning struck Hans's huge body, but it was like a stone thrown into the sea, causing no damage except a slight shake.

"I see. Slimes are extremely resistant to magic, but Hans, a cadre of the Demon King's army, is even better."

"Is this the time to calm down and explain?!"

Sato Kazuma shouted at Zun Zun.

In such a critical moment, it is a good thing to have someone who can remain calm, but it is not a good thing for someone like him who is not calm.

“What is it, Kazuma? Are you blaming me for taking action, or do you actually believe in chivalry and plan to wait for Hans to complete his transformation before attacking?”

"No, no, no, it's not like the transformation can't be interrupted. It would be a good thing if we could interrupt the transformation and get rid of him."

As expected of Kazuma.

He can say this nonchalantly, which means he has reached the end of his scumbag path.

Perhaps because Zun Zun was too calm, the excited Sato Kazuma also calmed down. Looking at the mad Slime Hans, he asked, "So, since you have targeted the cadres of the Demon King's Army, you must have a way to deal with them, right?"

"Of course!"

Zun Zun stretched his hands back, as if to introduce someone, and shouted loudly: "The next person who appears in front of you is a representative of the fighting faction with super high level, super powerful magic, and super good popularity. He is well-known in the kingdom. He is a former member of the brave team and now one of the cadres of the Demon King's Army. He is a strong man who can single-handedly challenge many cadres of the Demon King's Army with his ice magic——————"

The series of titles confused Sato Kazuma. How come he didn't know there was such a powerful character in the team?

“Welcome! Let’s give Miss Viz a big round of applause…Ah, ah!?”

Zun Zun's voice became smaller and smaller.

Because at the back of the crowd, the poor witch store manager who should have been following them silently did not appear here!

"Where's Miss Weiss?"

"She was taken to a hot spring by Aqua yesterday and spent the whole night there. She's now resting on a bed in the hotel. I mean, does Wiz's presence have anything to do with dealing with Hans?"

"How are we going to deal with Hans if Wiz isn't here?"

Zun Zun shouted at him.

No wonder I always felt something was wrong, it turns out someone was missing, Wiz wasn’t here at all!

"You stupid goddess!"

"…Huh? It's my fault?"

Aqua pointed at herself dumbfounded.

"Wait, Zun Zun, are you saying that only Wiz can deal with Hans?"

Sato Kazuma also reacted. After all, with so many titles just now, it was impossible for him to say that he didn't care.

“By the way, is Wiz such a powerful character!? You can’t tell from her appearance. I must ask her about her past when I get back!”

"That's not the problem now!"

Zun Zun also started to panic.

I thought I didn't have to be afraid of Wiz. If I had known, I would have saved some skill points to learn ice magic!
……and many more.

Has this happened before?

Hui Hui couldn't help but yell, "Zun Zun, can I blow him up? Can I blow him up?!"

"Don't do that!" Youyou quickly held her down and raised her wand, shouting, "If you use explosion magic on it, its body will scatter everywhere after the explosion, polluting the entire area!"

This is where the headache comes in.

Physical attacks have no effect, magical attacks have little effect, and explosive magic is sealed.

“I say, Kazuma!”

“Yes, I’m Kazuma.”

"What should I do now?!"

"I'm Silver, ask me!"

Sato Kazuma really wanted to say that he was just an adventurer of the lowest level, or even a beginner in the adventurer profession. What could he do at this moment?

"There is no other way. There is only one way now."

"What is it?"

"…Give it to Luda!"

Sato Kazuma immediately turned his back to everyone and ran away as fast as he could.

"Ah, he escaped..."

Before anyone could react, he had already run quite a distance, and his escape speed was abnormally fast.

“Kazuma, you…!”

"Wait a moment!"

"Follow me, you bastard! Otherwise I will abandon you!"

Sato Kazuma shouted without turning his head. The others followed, but Darkness was the only one who kept looking back.

"Ahhh, slime... It's so rare to see a slime..."

The perverted female knight sighed reluctantly, and Huihui and Yunyun grabbed her hands and dragged her away.

Darkness was extremely persistent in dealing with the slimy monster, Slime, and originally wanted to fight Hans alone, but everyone stopped her in the end.

Although Darkness, who felt that her body was strong, might be able to withstand Hans' attack, her attack had no effect on Hans.

No, it's better to say.

Everyone's attacks were ineffective.

“Kazuma, you were out of breath when you were climbing up the mountain, but you were very fast when you were going down the mountain.”

"Stop teasing me! Speaking of which, Doraemon, don't you have any solution?"

"I'm sorry, I don't know ice magic."

“Damn it! Do I have to go back and ask Wiz for help?”

Seeing that Zun Zun was helpless, Sato Kazuma gritted his teeth and clenched his fists.

Although I don't know how powerful Wiz is, it seems that she can probably deal with Slimehans. But now Wiz is so weak that she is about to ascend to heaven. Even if I go back and bring her back, the hot spring will have been polluted long ago.

“I say, Kazuma!”

“Yes, I’m Kazuma.”

"What should we do now?"

“I’m not bragging, but I’m really useless this time. If it’s an opponent that can be effectively dealt with by physical attacks, maybe I can use my new favorite sword, but… I say, Aqua, why don’t you just abandon this town? Create a new industry. And to be honest, the Axis Cult itself is a bunch of useless people.”

"What did you say!?"

Perhaps Sato Kazuma thought there was no hope and tried to convince Aqua by reasoning with her, but she angrily reached out to Sato Kazuma and grabbed his neck.

As the two men started to wrestle, Hans did not chase them, but went back instead.

Maybe in his opinion.

The few people who turned around and ran were like cowards. There was no need to pay attention to them. The most urgent task was to destroy the hot spring first.

After being persuaded by their companions, the two stopped arguing.

Seeing that Sato Kazuma refused to give in, Aqua looked at the giant slime moving away and said, "I understand... In that case, let me purify the slime."

What came out was such a reckless statement.

When they returned, they found Hans soaking his body, which was bigger than a mansion, in the source of the hot spring. If you didn't know, you would think he was here to enjoy the hot spring.

By the way, doesn’t he feel hot?
Perhaps due to the manifestation of its true form, it seemed that a lot of toxins had been mixed in. Even from such a distance, it could be seen that the source had become turbid and dark.

The speed of pollution is too fast!
As expected of a Demon King Army cadre.

I guess the water pipes that transport hot springs are also filled with toxins.

"These pipelines seem to be made of magical metal. It's not that easy to destroy them. After all, the hot springs are the lifeline of this town, and those pipelines are used to transport the hot springs. That's why they were specially built at a high cost."

"I see, that's it."

After hearing Zun Zun's explanation, Sato Kazuma suddenly understood, but Aqua was extremely impatient.

“Can you guys be a little nervous? This is a very serious matter! If even the last source is contaminated, the hot springs in this town will be unusable. If that happens, the Axis Cult in this town will also collapse!”

"Wouldn't that be great?"
Sato Kazuma, Darkness, Megumin, and Zun Zun said in unison, causing Aqua to run to Megumin and cry.

Among these people, only Huihui sincerely did not want the Axis Church in this town to collapse. After all, she enjoyed the benefits of the Crimson Demons here and was flattered by the Axis Church. If the church collapsed, where would she be able to find people who would speak nicely to her?

"Respected, don't you have any solution?"

Huihui asked.

Aqua also raised her tearful face and looked at him expectantly.

But in fact, Zun Zun really had no other choice. When he came here, he placed all his hopes on Wiz, because ice magic was the nemesis of monsters like slimes, so he recklessly added skill points to magic power and magic expansion.

If he had known this would happen, he would have saved skill points to learn ice magic. Why would he become so restricted as he is now?
“Why not just let Megumin use Explosion Magic?”

"Eh! But that would cause the slime's body to fly everywhere, and it would still pollute the hot spring."

Hearing what Zun Zun said, Aqua was the first to object.

Sato Kazuma pointed at her forehead and angrily yelled, "You idiot, what other solution is there at this point! Rather than letting the hot spring be completely destroyed, why not let it be polluted to varying degrees and then slowly purified! Besides, we don't have the ability to kill Hans without destroying his body... huh?"

He paused here, as if he had thought of something.

Huihui asked impatiently, “Can I blow it up? Can I blow it up? To be honest, this is my first time blowing up such a big slime. I’m really looking forward to it!”

“No, wait, Megumin.”

Sato Kazuma looked at Zun Zun and said, "I remember you have a special move, right?"

"Which one?"

"That's it, can you do it again?"

"What do you mean..."

Zun Zun looked at Hans who was soaking in the hot spring, thought for a moment and nodded.

“Let’s give it a try!”
