Chapter 515 It’s better to seek help from others than from yourself
Qiu Tong thought for a moment and said, "I'd better go to school first. The main reason is that the enrollment of ordinary schools has ended. If I don't go to Houde, I will have to stay at home for another year. By then, my father will arrange for me to get married."

"also."

The two continued walking along the street and encountered four shadow spirits one after another, all of whom were killed by Millipede's illumination magic.

After walking half a street forward, the two encountered an air wall again and had to turn back to the bank. Malu felt a little tired, so he climbed to the top floor and found a place with a wide view where he could easily see the enemy and rest for a while, and by the way, recovered the mental energy consumed by casting spells.

He slept for about twenty minutes. When he woke up, he felt that the dizziness in his head had eased a lot. He stretched and asked Qiu Tong, who was on guard, "Has the rescue come?"

"No," Qiu Tong shook her head, "I didn't see anyone else."

Malu didn't know what happened at the Fu Master Association, which resulted in the rescue that should have come being delayed.

However, after his searching and clearing over this period of time, the number of shadow spirits in this area had obviously decreased a lot, and he didn't encounter a single one even after walking for a long time.

Malu decided to continue with the original plan and look for the lord of this disaster zone.

He stood on the roof and looked down at the darkness below.

He had explored many places before, and the only place he had not been to was the southwest, and the night there seemed to be darker than in other directions.

If nothing unexpected happens, the lord should be there.

Malu then took Qiutong over there, and the number of encounters with Shadow Spirits on the way became frequent again.

In order to save mental energy, Millipede started running and began to rely on movement to pull and gather monsters.

During this period, he was worried that Qiu Tong would not be able to keep up, but what he didn't expect was that the latter, apart from being a little nervous when seeing Yingliang, did not hinder him in action.

She had been following closely behind him, her little leather shoes making a creaking sound, and even after running for such a long time, her breathing was still even, and her face wasn't red, and her heart wasn't beating fast.

In comparison, it was the millipede itself that was breathing more heavily.

When they stopped to rest, he couldn't help but say, "You have good stamina."

"Oh, my mom is a gymnast. I've been practicing gymnastics with her since I was a kid, and I even won medals at the city sports meet."

"No wonder." Malu suddenly realized.

Just as the two were talking, something flashed behind the glass window of a watch shop not far away.

The millipede was always paying attention to the movements around it and was able to keenly detect the movements over there.

He reacted quickly and was immediately ready to release the illumination spell, but the black shadow did not come out of the watch shop.

Malu was getting a little impatient waiting there, so he simply turned on the light magic and rushed into the watch shop. However, after walking around inside, he found nothing.

In order to confirm that he didn't kill the thing accidentally, Malu asked Qiu Tong to check the ground, but the green stone was not found.

Could it be that he ran away?
It was the first time that Millipede encountered a shadow spirit that could run away, and that thing ran away when he didn't use the light spell.

I guess he had seen the power of illumination magic before.

And if this is true, then its intelligence level is obviously far superior to other shadow spirits in this place, because according to Malu's observation, those shadow spirits basically have no thinking ability, but just execute the received programs like early artificial mental retardation.

In other words, the thing lurking in the watch shop just now is very likely the lord of this disaster zone.

The good news is that since the thing can run, it means that it is also afraid of light magic, and Millipede still has a chance to destroy it and take Qiu Tong away from this disaster zone. The bad news is that the thing can run, so it may be difficult to get close to it and use the ultimate skill like before.

In order to verify his guess, Millipede turned off the illumination magic and circled around here for a few times, but all he attracted were ordinary shadow spirits.

But when he cleared out all the ordinary shadow spirits, the shadow spirit that could only escape never appeared again from beginning to end.

Well, it seems that guy really has remembered his appearance, not just the spell.

Moreover, it moved very quickly and was more familiar with the area than either of them.

It's almost impossible to catch it here.

After realizing this, Malu stopped walking in circles meaninglessly and stood there in deep thought.

Since we can't catch up with it, the only thing we can do is lure it out.

Millipede first tried the green stones in his hand and found a place to pile them together. As a result, even though he had retreated a street away, when he came back, all the stones were still there.

Then the millipede reluctantly let out some blood, because monsters in many movies and TV shows are interested in human blood, but unfortunately it still had no effect.

Just when Malu was thinking about what else could be used as bait, Qiu Tong took the initiative to step forward.

"How about I give it a try?"

"Ok?"

"Those shadow spirits have been chasing me and Principal Cao. I feel I should be able to lure them out, and I can run fast enough." Qiu Tong said bravely.

Because the principal Cao Jinhua died at the hands of those shadow spirits, she was very afraid of them at the beginning.

But later, when she followed Malu and saw with her own eyes that Malu dealt with those shadow spirits as easily as cutting melons and vegetables, she was no longer so afraid.

What’s more important is that she found that she seemed to run faster than those shadows, so she took the initiative to offer to be bait.

"You have to think carefully," Malu said, "The remaining shadow spirit is probably the lord of this place. It may have some hidden abilities that other shadow spirits don't have, so it would be dangerous to use it as bait. In fact, it doesn't matter if we can't catch it, we can still wait for rescue."

"But now four hours have passed and help hasn't come yet. I don't know if it will come."

Qiu Tong hesitated for a moment and decided to take her fate into her own hands.

"I want to give it a try. If it succeeds, we can get out of here."

Malu certainly had no objection. He had already told Qiu Tong about the risks. From his own perspective, he also wanted to try to kill the lord if he had the chance.

After all, good stuff had dropped from the monsters before, so the boss should have some valuable stuff on him as well. Besides, he and Qiu Tong thought the same thing, and both felt that it was better to rely on oneself than on others.

The two discussed the next battle plan. The plan was not complicated. They just kept a distance from each other to lower the vigilance of the lord. If Qiu Tong could attract it, they would turn around and run towards the millipede.

The final kill was done by the millipede using the light spell.

The key to the success of this plan is not only to lure out the lord, but also for Qiu Tong to hold on until Malu arrives.
