(2) Undercurrent (10)
Qingkong jumped down as he spoke, followed Leolia's footsteps and walked two steps towards the entrance of the cave, but he still pulled his black feathered cloak with concern and asked, "I just have to follow you?"
"No, you not only have to do your best to kill monsters, but also need to master the opportunity." Leolia turned her head and said seriously, "Take out your most powerful group attack magic and release it with my attack rhythm. We need some practice to achieve the best effect. So, let's try first whether my idea is true."
While speaking, the two had already walked to the entrance of the cave. Two swamp monsters, like red jelly, twisted their bodies and rushed towards the clear sky. Leoria immediately drew out the steel sword, and cut the two monsters away with one horizontal chop, and fell to the ground and rotted into a pool of mud, but there seemed to be signs of life.
"Very good! My ordinary skill controls the strength and won't kill the 35th level swamp monster with one knife - Qingkong! Use your group attack skills quickly, hurry up!"
At Leolia's prompt, Qingkong immediately came to his senses and silently recited the spell of the Level 2 Magic Explosion in his heart. While jumping to the two dying swamp monsters, purple-red apertures expanded outward from the center of the girl's body, bursting out gorgeous light and fire. However, the energy was too small to kill them at once. Qingkong took advantage of the time when the two injured monsters struggled to cheer up, and even three magic Explosion techniques failed to solve the opponent, but instead aroused their hatred. The two monsters finally turned their bodies and rushed towards the girl. Qingkong reacted quickly and jumped backwards. Before Leolia could not help but help, she fired two fireballs, and finally achieved a new achievement of hunting the 35-level swamp monster at level 22.
"It seems that I have to add key force behind me." Leolia sighed slightly, then hooked her hands at Qingkong and continued to walk towards the entrance of the cave, "Come again."
The more he walked into the cave, the more swamp monsters he was alarmed, and the second battle attracted 5 swamp monsters. Leolia had no choice but to use the whirlwind slash. Fortunately, he could always control his strength and still left Qingkong with a chance to get a kill. This time, without Leolia's instructions, Qingkong immediately used magic explosion technique, jumping around several injured monsters, and after two consecutive spells detonated the purple-red light explosion, he successfully hunted 4 monsters. The last one flew too far and had to rely on the rhythmic hits of three fireballs to finally solve.
"Is it good, there is progress." Leolia nodded with satisfaction and warned before the next battle began. "Next, we will follow this rhythm, but you must be special and pay special attention. Don't let yourself die. I will not have the ability to resurrect. Once you die, you have to run back to the human world from Rashomon and wake up from the closest cemetery here. I may not be able to find the closest cemetery here. This means that the two of us have a high chance of getting lost. If you encounter such a situation, I will pick up the extremely important letter to you before your body disappears, because in 5 minutes, this letter will be taken into the cemetery."
After digesting Leoria's warning that there was a lot of information, Qingkong nodded cautiously.
Then, according to the rhythm of the previous two practice battles, the two began a swamp monster cleaning operation like bandit-like cave sweeping. The cave with red phosphorescence continued to appear with purple auras and stronger firelight. The night soon became deeper and thicker. Before they knew it, two more hours passed...
-
Qingkong stumbled out of the cave, and once she stepped into the uncanny safe area, she fell to the ground. She jumped almost without stopping and released two hours of spells. She was already dizzy and limbs were weak. Fortunately, based on such a desperate and crazy leveling behavior, she had successfully reached level 23, and picked up a bunch of swamp monsters' eyes from her backpack, which seemed to be able to sell a few silver.
Leoria followed her footsteps and walked calmly to the position beside her. He took out two green pie-like objects from his backpack that seemed to have a circle of green hair and handed her one: "Eat one of the anti-sleep mushroom cakes, which will help you recover your energy and consciousness."
Qingkong took it without hesitation and broke it into several pieces, but he couldn't hide it and swallowed it in a few bites.
I felt like I was pulled back from the state of exhaustion. Qingkong took a deep breath, sat up straight, and sincerely thanked Leolia: "Thank you for the food, thank you for your guidance."
"Don't thank me. Let's continue practicing for a while. Let's try to pull you to level 25 through this night's efforts." Leoria said as she pulled out a gold coin from her backpack and stuffed it into Qingkong's left hand.
"Is this?..." Qingkong glared at the gold coins in her hand. So far, she hadn't taken so much money in this world, and her eyes turned golden and lit up - this is a gold! (1,000 silver equals 1 gold)
"I feel sad when I see your ragged equipment. Later I arrive at Ranger Town. Hurry up and exchange the money for myself a decent outfit." Leoria said calmly.
"This is a gold!... Too much, how can I accept that you have so much money?" Qingkong came to his senses and immediately stuffed the gold coins back into his hand.
However, the rich man immediately pushed back the big favor: "You don't have to be too polite. As long as you can help me successfully deliver this letter to the King of Apocalypse, the amount of money will be worth it."
"Why choose me?...I am only at level 20, I don't know anything, so weak." Qingkong couldn't help asking.
"intuition."
After saying these two words, Leoria stood up, walked towards the big rock that the two of them had climbed up earlier, and jumped up, as if she had gone alone to watch the moon.
-
Suddenly, she felt a great responsibility. Qingkong looked at the shiny gold coin in her hand in embarrassment, and finally put it away with a hint of helplessness. Then, she climbed onto the big rock where Leoria was, and saw the man lying on the ground, holding a long leaf clover that she had found in her mouth.
Qingkong walked to his side, lay down, looking at the crescent moon in the starry sky, and was about to praise the good moonlight tonight, but the man beside him spoke first: "The storm is coming."
"The storm?... Didn't it just passed yesterday? Where did you see that it was going to rain again?" Qingkong looked at the night sky carefully, trying to find out where there were dark clouds that were leaked by him.
"No, a bigger storm is coming, and the undercurrents are hidden on the back of the calm image, and you have not seen it yet."
Hearing his words, more and more doubts gathered in his heart. Qingkong finally couldn't help but start the breaking of the casserole and asking to the bottom of the question. So she turned her head and looked at his side face and asked very seriously: "Leolia, tell me your story. Since you intuitively trust me, let me understand your story and let me understand more about the responsibilities I bear."
"I am not a good storyteller. No matter how exciting the story goes, it will become confusing and disorderly when I hear it. And I don't know where to start those bizarre experiences, and I'm afraid I will miss too much."
"We don't need to organize language, and don't need to worry too much. We are companions, right?" Qingkong kept a serious tone. "We have been passing by together and killed the enemy together. Now we have a common goal, that is companions. Since we are companions, we don't have to be restrained or worry about our own language organization. I believe I can understand, even if it's a bizarre story."
Leoria raised the corner of her mouth, whispered softly, and said, "You just asked me why I chose to trust you. Actually, I know you very early, but you just don't know me."
"ah?"
"The famous female idol group TNL is a clear sky, few people don't know in the real world, right?" Leolia looked at her with a smile, "I have heard your songs and often saw your advertisements on the big screen in the square. Of course I know you. That day in the corridor of the hotel, I heard your companion call you Qingzhao, and I immediately realized that it was you - after all, after entering the real world from the real world, I will retain the name in the real world, and match the game characters that match the character that is consistent with the character traits. The characteristics of the game of the brave continent. After seeing your image, I am even more sure that it is you."
"Are you... my fan?" Qingkong blinked uncertainly.
Leolia smiled and turned her face: "I'm not a star chaser, but I like your songs, and it's all about sincerity. I think only people with a kind heart can sing such a beautiful tone - this is the source of my consciousness."
He was a little embarrassed to praise him, Qingkong unconsciously turned his eyes to the starry sky, and the conversation between Sorens and Leoria last night appeared in his mind-
[You are indeed a cold person, whether in or outside the game.] Leoria said so;
[We are never friends, whether in or outside the game.] And Sorens returned like this.
[So, did these two people know each other outside the game?] - Qingkong finally noticed it, so he asked -
"Leoliya, do you and Sorens know each other in the real world?"
"Yes, we are all in the same place."
"Ah?...Are you also a fantasy hunter?!"
