At that moment, the thief woman who had lost her fighting ability attacked Xu Zhen from behind. But she was hit again by Ram and was knocked away again.

Although he avoided falling into the spring, the physical and mental shock was too great and he no longer had the strength to stand up.

"Damn it... I was actually... "

The swordsman looked at the thief woman with a distorted expression, and was also furious. Just when he was about to rush towards Xu Zhen with his huge fist -

Boom!

There was an explosion from behind. Feeling something bad was happening, the swordsman quickly stepped back and looked back. The young wizard had already fallen down amidst the black smoke.

At the same time, Fulio, who was confronting him, turned his eyes to the swordsman. The swordsman's fist was shaking, with a confused expression and cold sweat.

"What did you... do..."

The fire magic released by the wizard was swallowed by Fureo, and then counterattacked to the guy in the form of a fireball. The swordsman's expression became more distorted as he explained to Xu Zhen calmly.

"How could such a stupid thing happen!"

"Even if you say so, it seems that this is the only way to go..."

Xu Zhen said in distress while scratching his cheek.

"I feel a strong power. If I keep going like this, I will definitely defeat that guy!"

Fouleo said in an excited voice, causing Xu Zhen to smile bitterly.

"Don't take it lightly. This old guy seems to be quite powerful and conceited."

“Who is that old guy!?”

The swordsman complained subconsciously, but seemed to have to admit that he had been forced into a difficult situation.

"Damn it, if this continues... Hey! You have to find a way..."

The swordsman looked at the young magic swordsman and was surprised again. At that moment, the sound of kneeling was heard.

“Haaaah, haaaah…”

“Is it over? Can I continue?”

Lati, with magic power emerging in her hand, still looked calm. In contrast, the young magic swordsman could barely stand and it was hard to say whether he could fight normally.

"Nonsense... Is it possible that such a thing could happen..."

The swordsman staggered involuntarily in shock. At this time, the elder slime came over and said while nodding.

"It seems that compared to the magic swordsman, the fairy lady's strength, speed, and magic skills are obviously superior. The situation just proves this point."

Elder Slime said calmly, and the prosecutor clenched his teeth. Although he was unhappy, he could not refute it. Because this was the truth. No matter what he said, he would only appear to be unable to accept defeat.

He had to admit it. If he continued like this, the situation would only get worse. The swordsman thought so and made a decision on behalf of the young magic swordsman.

"…Alas, let's retreat today! You guys, leave quickly!"

The swordsman's shout resonated with the thief girl and the magician youth, and although they staggered a little, they still stood up. They seemed to be about to listen to the swordsman's words, but the magic swordsman youth tried to stop them.

"Wait... No, don't say stupid things. I can still fight... Gupu!"

The swordsman man wordlessly punched the young magic swordsman's face.

"Take a break, you idiot."

The swordsman picked up the unconscious magic swordsman, glanced at Xu Zhen and the others, and walked straight to the spring. Without leaving any words, the four of them ran away.

"So, we just let them get away? I wanted to defeat them completely!"

“I also feel that it’s a little bit insufficient!”

The four people looked at the direction of escape while talking dissatisfiedly. Faced with the obvious aggressive attitude, Xu Zhen backed off a little. Perhaps this is also one of the effects of the increased magic power. Now we can only pray that time will calm down.

Just as Xu Zhen was thinking this, Elder Slime smiled.

"Okay, calm down. We're not going to let them go."

"Eh?"

Xu Zhen and the others all looked at Elder Slime, but Slime just smiled and didn't answer. At the same time, the four people who escaped were crossing the suspension bridge.

Because they were badly injured in the battle, they walked slowly, but the suspension bridge was still strong and would not fall down easily.

"This is not over yet. We will definitely launch another attack!" The swordsman said angrily. Just as he finished speaking, something suddenly flew over from above. It pierced through the rope of the suspension bridge and made a cracking sound.

Their feet shook, and they could barely stand. They didn't know what was happening. Then, they just... fell.

“Woo…Waaaaaaaah!”

The swordsman screamed loudly, but it was too late. The scream quickly faded away, and then there was only a "thump" sound, and then there was no sound.

Xu Zhen and others in the spring also heard the screams. They could roughly guess what happened, but they were still confused.

“Beep beep…”

“Oh, it seems to be successful.”

The slime that served as their guide jumped down from the tree.

"Actually, the guy I hid in the tree near the suspension bridge spurted acid from his mouth, cut the rope, and then the suspension bridge fell. The four guys fell headfirst. Now it's finally quiet."

Xu Zhen looked at the older slime with a smile on his face and said softly, "...it's really a big deal."

"What's wrong? This is retribution for their attempt to mess up our residence. With luck, they should be able to survive." said the older slime.

After hearing this, Xu Zhen thought to himself, How likely is it to survive in such a rapid?

Two years ago, three thieves encountered a similar situation, but would they have had the same outcome?

However, Xu Zhen himself did not care what would happen to those four people. This was certain. Compared to this, he was more determined about another thing.

"Sure enough, slimes can't be underestimated."

"That's right."

Xu Zhen's muttering was recognized by Lati and the other three monsters, and they nodded in agreement.

--------------

"Hey, Ram wants to stay here?"

After accepting Xu Zhen's explanation, Lati looked at Ram in surprise. Seeing her so troubled, Ram showed a frustrated expression.

“Chi…”

"Oh, no, I don't object. It's just that I'm a little surprised all of a sudden..."

"Yeah, that's true. I was also surprised when I heard it for the first time." Xu Zhen said while stroking Ram's head.

"She seems to like this place very much and wants to live in this spring. And the slimes here seem to need Ram very much, and we have no reason to object. So I want to accept her request."

“I see… I understand. I will also accept Ram’s decision.”
