《Soul Summoner in Isekai (LitRPG & System)》22. The Booty
Advertisement
"Ah, my head! My head!"
Harry fell to the ground and rolled from side to side, screaming incessantly.
Apprentice fighters can easily deal with slimes, but that's by dodging the slime's acid with agility and then killing them with weapons.
If you are hit by acid, even if you are a trainee soldier, you will still be injured.
Just like Harry is now.
His arms and scalp were bloodied by acid corrosion.
The intense pain made his eyes roll up and his body twitched.
"Burton, hurry...take me to the priest! Hurry!"
Hearing Harry's order, Burton did not move at all.
Just kidding, if he turned and left now, Tommy wouldn't last long.
When Tommy is dead, can Burton escape?
Moreover, the scene in front of him made Burton feel that his and Tommy's chances of survival were very low.
The two of them stared like copper bells as if they had seen something incredible.
Opposite them, Anno assumed the same defensive stance as before.
But beside him, there are four jumping slimes!
"I'm not dazzled, am I? Slime didn't attack Anno?"
Tommy swallowed, wondering why Slime would help Anno with Harry.
"Bastard, there were no slimes around just now! He made these slimes!"
Burton pointed at Anno, his forehead was covered in a cold sweat, and his voice trembled a little: "This guy... this guy can create monsters!"
Create monsters!
Tommy froze for a while, looking in the direction of Anno, his body trembled uncontrollably.
He never knew that someone could create monsters!
"Those who can create monsters... are also monsters!" Tommy said to Burton with a crying voice: "Even Lord Harry has fallen, we are not opponents. Burton, let's escape!"
Burton was also scared, but he remembered what Anno said before the fight.
"After the battle begins, everyone must have the consciousness of death!"

Burton patted Tommy on the shoulder, repeated Anno's words, and said, "We want to kill him, and he will definitely not let us go now! We must fight him!"
"But we can't beat it!" Tommy couldn't stop backing away when he saw Anno's movement again.
"You should fight, and you have to fight!"
Burton roared, raised his knife, and charged toward Anno.
Clank!
The swords collided, and a few sparks popped out!
The next second, the slimes who had cooled down their skills all aimed at Burton and sprayed acid.
Burton rolled to the side in a panic, was kicked down by Anno before he got up, and lay on the grass.
Puff!
The dagger pierced into Burton's back, the latter's eyes glared fiercely, and his hands clasped the soil tightly.
After a while, the light in Burton's eyes gradually dimmed.
"Don't kill me, I don't want to die!"
On the other side, Tommy saw this scene, and no longer had the intention to fight Anno, he turned around and ran.
Naturally, Anno would not leave a living hole and endured the pain of the wound on his body, let the summoning slime watch Harry, and quickly chased after him.
"Don't chase me! Lord Anno, I know I'm wrong! Please, let me go, I will never tell someone what happened today!"
Tommy looked back and saw Anno who was approaching, his soul was scared away, and he kept begging for mercy.
But Anno ignored it at all, just kept chasing after him.
Pfft!
Tommy tripped on the ground because he looked back at Anno's position and didn't notice a raised stone under his feet in front of him.
When he was about to get up and continue running, a foot suddenly stepped on his chest and stepped back.
"Lord Anno, let me go. That bastard Harry made me do it, and he made me do all the bad things.

I shouldn't help him tease your friends, and I shouldn't have any intention of harming you.
Please, let me go.
I still have a ten-year-old... child at home, woo woo woo... I'm... dead, she... she will be... bullied, darling... daughter, woo woo, dad... ...sorry...dad knows...wrong..."
Anno pulled the dagger from Tommy's heart, and listened to his plea for mercy gradually turning into a confession, and finally a corpse.
"Maybe you have a reason for wanting to live, but you don't have Burton's awareness!"
Anno looked at Tommy's body with a complicated look.
When Burton saw the summoned slimes, he knew that he would never return alive without killing Anno.
So he knew that he couldn't beat him, but he still rushed to Anno, fighting for his last chance.
Maybe Tommy does have a ten-year-old daughter.
But still the same.
"After the battle begins, you must have the consciousness of death!"
Anno grabbed Tommy by the leg and dragged him to Harry's side.
Harry is dying.
His golden hair was corroded and there were only tufts left, and the red flesh was still bubbling with bubbling—the acid had not been cleaned up, and it continued to corrode.
When he saw Anno coming, Harry stretched out his arm and grabbed Anno's leg.
"You can't kill me, my brother Sharp Carr is a level 10 knight, the third mercenary group in Valcam, the captain of the bloodstained mercenary group. If you kill me, he won't let you go!
You take me to the pastor, save me, and I will repay you well. "
Harry looked half-dead, struggling to speak.
"Is it repayment or revenge? When you decided to kill me, I put you on the must-kill list!"
Hearing this, Harry's eyes suddenly widened, and his injured right hand suddenly picked up the large knife that had been thrown aside and slashed toward Anno.
Clang!
Anno easily blocked the weak broadsword with his short sword.
"You can't kill me! How dare you kill me! My brother will definitely revenge..."
Before Harry could speak, Anno cut his throat with a dagger.
While waiting to die, Harry's heart was filled with regret.
"Why do I have to provoke this monster?"
A breeze blew, and the grass on the grassland swayed with the wind.
Anno grinned and sat on the grass.
In the battle just now, he was also slashed several times, and now the wound is still bleeding.
"No, we have to deal with the follow-up!"
Anno glanced at the five corpses around him and put his eyes on the purse around their waists.
"It's time to reap the spoils!"
The corners of An Nuo's mouth rose, and the five people's purses were pulled down.
"Five, ten...forty-three silver coins! There is actually one gold coin!"
Anno took out a shiny gold coin from his purse in surprise.
The purses of the Burtons and others added up to 20 silver coins, plus more than 100 copper coins, and the rest were found in Harry's purse.
"Harry, this guy is so rich!"
1 gold is equal to 100 silver.
In other words, Anno killed five people, and his wealth increased by 144 silver coins!
Anno gave a wry smile and saw a large group of wild slimes drawn by the summoned slimes not far away. He got up and left here with the money bag and the short sword.
These slimes eat everything!
With them, these corpses would be devoured in no time.

8 139The Forerunner's Odyssey
The greatest tragedies are not the ones with the most unfortunate and unhappy endings, but rather the ones without an ending at all. So when Suran Ibrahim scaled the fresh crater, it was not out of exuberance for surviving his ordeal, nor was it out of desire to live in the brave, new world he found himself in. He simply longed for an ending to his odyssey. Mature 18+ Mostly for violence, some language, but anything else may show up eventually. I place the tag just so that I'm not restricted. I'm rewriting this to fix a host of issues. I'll try to update my progress in the blurb - I most likely wont post the revisions until I'm done for all chapters. Till then, c'ya later fam. Maybe.
