Primitive, backward, full of poverty and famine...
Although it is a fairly large city, the nutritional status and health status of its residents are quite poor.
The only thing worthy of recognition may be the relatively clean main streets, sewer systems, and soldiers wearing full-body plate armor.
You must know that armor of this quality only appeared during the Renaissance on Earth.
But what's interesting is that in this city that looks like it's stuck in the Middle Ages, it was installed on a large scale.
Through powerful telepathy, Allen effortlessly extracted enough information from the brains and memories of pedestrians on both sides of the street, and even learned the language of this world in less than two or three seconds.
Holy City——Rapona.
This was the name of the city he was currently standing under, a city that typically rose and prospered because of religious relationships.
But it is a pity that Allen did not feel even a little bit of the breath of God from the magnificent Grand Cathedral.
There is no doubt that, like those religions on earth, the gods here are also created by humans.
Either it is used to unify thoughts, or it is used to seize power and wealth, or it is used to unite people's hearts to deal with the invasion of foreign enemies.
In short, nothing related to magic or supernatural has been discovered so far.
Most pedestrians are either thinking about how to make more money, or they are filled with all kinds of desires, and there are even guys who lust after some beautiful women on the street.
So in order to prevent himself from seeing too many dirty things, Allen took the initiative to stop exploring the thoughts and memories of the people around him, and wandered aimlessly in the market, while silently thinking about the name Holy City - Rapona in his heart.
He felt that he should have heard it, but he didn't know why he couldn't remember it.
After all, hundreds of years have passed since the memory of the previous life, so it is inevitable that some unimportant parts will become blurred.
But just when Allen was about to turn around and leave the city to look for clues in the wider space outside, he suddenly heard a man dressed as a businessman standing in front of several carriages filled with goods, patting his chest and saying something thoughtfully. He said in a fearful tone, "God bless! We finally arrived at Holy City safely. We encountered neither murderous bandits nor the terrifying cannibal Yoma along the way."
"Yes! I'm so lucky! These goods are the most in-demand products, and they will definitely sell for a good price." Another young man driving the car next to him also agreed with a happy face.
"After I sell the goods, I must go to the church to pray to thank Divine Lord for the gift."
As he spoke, the businessman took out a silver statue from his clothes and placed it on his forehead with a pious expression.
It can be seen that he is not just showing off, but is really grateful to this fictional god.
But what really interests Allen is the word "Yoma".
Coupled with the name of the city Holy City-Rapona, he finally realized that the place under his feet was the place where the story of "Claymore" took place?
"Interesting! I hope I'm not too late, otherwise it would be a shame if I couldn't see "Smiling Teresa"."
As the last word blurted out, Allen's feet suddenly exerted force, and without any warning, they shot into the sky like a cannonball, shocking the ordinary people around him.
Especially the guards, who immediately ran over from a distance and looked at the Deep Pit formed by the huge impact on the ground, with expressions of shock and disbelief on their faces.
"Just... what happened just now?" A guy dressed like an army officer asked in a trembling voice.
Gudong!
The nearest vendor swallowed subconsciously and replied cautiously, "I seem to have seen a person, a young man with short silver hair, jumping up from here and flying into the air."
"Are you sure it's a human? Not some other monster?" A lot of sweat appeared on the officer's forehead.
"Sorry! Everything happened too fast, and I didn't see it clearly." The vendor stared at the sunken Deep Pit on the road, his whole body shaking uncontrollably.
As an ordinary person, he knew very well that with that shocking leap just now, that mysterious young man was definitely powerful enough to destroy the entire street easily.
This is not an enemy that can be killed simply by sheer numbers, but a monster more terrifying than the man-eating Yoma.
"Damn! How could such a monster appear in Holy City? No! I will report this matter immediately."
After cursing in a low voice, the officer left two soldiers to guard the scene of the incident and walked quickly towards the cathedral in the center of the city.
Compared to Holy City - Rapona, who suddenly fell into a tense atmosphere, Allen, who was standing tens of thousands of meters above the ground, seemed very relaxed. He scanned the map below with his powerful perception ability and immediately discovered the beautiful woman with long blond hair and a faint smile on her face.
"Ah! I found you."
The next second...
Allen's body turned into a stream of light, swooping down at a speed that could not be caught by the naked eye.
Teresa, the No. 1 member of the organization, had just locked a few Yoma hidden in the town through his breath, and planned to kill these man-eating monsters with his sword in hand to complete the commission.
But who would have thought that before she could take action, she suddenly felt an indescribable horror.
This was the first time since her debut as Claymore that she felt the breath of death. Her whole body was like a cat with exploded hair, and she instantly entered a state of full breath.
In just one tenth of a second, Teresa's eyes changed from the iconic silver to gold, and his pupils also showed beast-like vertical pupils.
No doubt about it!
This was the first time she had gone all out.
Prior to this, whether they were fighting against the numerous Yoma or the more powerful Awakened Beings, they almost never actively released their aura.
But now, in order to fight against the unknown crisis that suddenly appeared above his head, he finally revealed all his trump cards.
But just when Teresa was about to swing his sword, a stream of light suddenly fell from the sky and slammed into the main road of the town ahead, making a deafening sound and vibration.
boom!!!!!!!!
In an instant, the terrifying shock wave directly destroyed everything within tens of meters around it.
In particular, several Yoma who had been identified did not even last a second and were torn into pieces on the spot.
Ordinary people were knocked around by the aftermath, and some even had their heads and faces scratched by flying stones.
As the dust in the sky gradually dissipated, Teresa finally saw the figure of Deep Pit standing up slowly.
"Hey! It's our first time meeting you. Nice to meet you, Smiling Teresa." Allen shook the dust off his body and said hello with a smile.
There is no doubt that if the world of Claymore is really only as shown in the original work, then this world is just a playground for him and does not pose any threat.
Even the so-called "Dragon's Descendants" that was vaguely mentioned once was just a special biological weapon.
Sky City's laboratory can create a large number of things like this in less than a few minutes, easily obliterating everything on this planet.
But Allen will not do this.
Compared to the crude methods that rely on brute force, he obviously prefers to wake up these controlled and brainwashed Claymore from the inside, and then go to the door to find out all the Blackhand behind the scenes in the organization, and kill them all in the most brutal way.
"Who are you? Why do you know my name?" Teresa did not relax his vigilance. Instead, he subconsciously clenched the sword in his hand.
Although Allen never showed even the slightest bit of hostility from beginning to end, the hairs all over her body stood up, as if she had been targeted by those terrifying predators in the wild when she was young.
After all, normally, even the powerful Awakened Beings would not be safe if it were dropped directly from such a height.
But the young man in front of him didn't even have any damage to his clothes, and his physical strength was almost invulnerable.
Teresa is not very sure whether Claymore, which is enough to kill Yoma and Awakened Beings in his hand, can cut off the limbs and body of the monster in front of him as usual.
Yes!
She has always been called a monster by others, but she also feels that the Allen in front of her is worthy of the title of monster.
The most important thing is that she doesn't think the other person is human at all.
Allen also noticed this and responded with interest, "It doesn't matter who I am. What matters is that I know all the secrets about the organization and can change your destiny."
"Hmph! Stop talking nonsense there! Die! Monster!"
After accumulating enough "momentum", Teresa dodged and rushed forward.
Her speed was obviously faster than the sound, but she didn't know why there was no noise that broke the sound barrier. She appeared behind Allen in an instant, raised the giant sword made of unknown materials in her hand, and slashed at the most fragile neck of the human body.
If it were normal, Teresa would definitely choose to split the head and body from the middle, splitting the enemy into two, ensuring a one-hit kill.
But now, she had no confidence in cutting open the hard skull, and instead focused on the most vulnerable neck.
It must be cut in!
Teresa bit it tightly, no longer as calm as usual. With his breath fully open, both his expression and muscles became extremely ferocious.
clang!
With a crisp sound, Claymore, which had never suffered any damage, unexpectedly broke into two pieces the moment it hit Allen's seemingly slender and fragile neck.
The first half of it rolled and separated, and finally plunged into the ground with a bang.
shock!
fear!
Unable to understand!
As a Claymore who has experienced many battles, Teresa simply cannot believe that there are people in this world who can withstand his full blow without getting hurt.
What's even more outrageous is that Claymore, which could not curl or crack even if it was chopped at a stone for days and nights, actually broke in an instant.
In contrast, Allen just touched the white mark on his neck and asked with a sneer, "What are you doing? Are you tickling me? I sincerely suggest that you don't do any useless things, otherwise you will only be hurt. In addition, you must not mistake me for Awakened Beings. I don't have the bad habit of eating people."
Damn it!
This is really troublesome!
Teresa lowered his head and glanced at the fingers that were bleeding and shaking violently due to the reaction force, and his heart suddenly sank to the lowest point.
After confirming that all the Yoma in this village had been killed by the opponent's impact from the sky, she immediately launched her astonishing speed without saying a word, and disappeared into the forest outside the town in a few seconds, leaving only the local residents who were confused and confused.
Just as Teresa fled away, a Guardians appeared out of thin air, knelt down on one knee in front of Allen, and reported in a low voice, "Sir, we have found the source of the mysterious energy in this world. Do we need to take action to collect samples?"
"Sample?" Allen touched his chin with a thoughtful expression.
"Yes! On this planet, there are several special creatures that exude a strong aura. Although their strength can only barely reach the level of high-level soldiers, the genetic code carried by their genes is quite interesting and of great research value." Guardians answered in the affirmative without thinking.
In his opinion, this barren planet has nothing of value except these interesting genetic samples.
There is no way, who made Sky City gain too much in the previous world, so that a relatively low-level world like Claymore cannot arouse much interest at all.
"Don't worry, the game needs to be played bit by bit. Wouldn't it be too boring to push all the bosses too quickly?"
After Allen thought for a moment, he immediately rejected Guardians's proposal.
He was not sure how much damage to the plot would be caused by catching all the guys named Abyss or killing them directly.
It would be a lot of fun if Teresa couldn't meet Clare.
"What about the other continent besides the land under your feet?" Guardians obviously refused to give up and continued to ask persistently.
"Another continent? Well... you can do whatever you want. But remember to be gentle, I don't want any impact here. Okay, stop chatting here. I'm still going to chase Smiling Teresa. You can go and inform Artoria by the way, so that she doesn't make too much noise, let alone destroy that organization in a fit of anger."
After the instructions, Allen turned into an afterimage and disappeared on the spot.
He had just locked onto Teresa's aura, so no matter how far Warrior, who is known as the strongest in history, ran, he could not escape tracking that could cover the entire planet.
Next, this "Goddess" may have to live a painful and troubled life.
Allen, who has nothing to do, will show the other person what it is like to have brown candy that is impossible to remove once it sticks to it.
To deal with a cold and stubborn woman like Dinisha, stalking is often the most effective way.
