What were you doing before the end of the world? Are you going to be an assassin?

Listening to the smooth mechanical sound of the prism, Connor's mouth twitched. Isn't this what he just said to Youyou?

Even this is learned?

As a divine intelligence created by a goddess, shouldn't there be a long speech of four, six, eight sentences to prove from all aspects the excellence of this qualified person and praise his efforts?

Prism: "The vocabulary is corrupted and is being repaired."

Connor: ...This doesn't have anything to do with me, does it? I just let Prism understand the meaning of "friendship of life and death" and "friendship of life and death" literally...It shouldn't have anything to do with me, right?

Prism just shook twice silently and didn't continue speaking.

It seems...it seems so.

The prism shut down for a while, and then entered the normal process as if nothing had happened: the qualified person's level was upgraded, and 5 free attribute points and 1 prism point were awarded.

"Strength +3, Agility +2." Connor thought about it and invested the free attribute points into the panel. With the attribute point correction, the three points of strength additionally led to an increase in agility. The five attribute points given by the upgrade can be used as six attribute points.

After Strength +3, the overall strength value becomes the first attribute to exceed 30, providing Connor with a new trait [Shield Breaker].

[Shield Breaker]: The attack of a qualified person can temporarily destroy part of the opponent's defense in a battle, and there is a chance to stun the target.

At first glance, it seems to conflict with the enchantment of the battle axe, but after Connor's experiment, he found that this trait gave him a more targeted attack against magic-type targets. After being penetrated by his attack, the magic shield in that area will be hit with an irreparable hole.

After the upgrade, there were still some prism points left. Connor gritted his teeth and invested two prism points into [Disappearance]. Although this skill would cause damage to friendly forces, it was powerful and easy to use, and it was very effective against spellcasters and monsters in this world.

With two skill points cleared, Connor only had one prism point left for emergency use. After carefully looking at the new skills listed by the prism, Connor thought it would be better to keep it as a backup, in case he needed to use this precious prism point somewhere else.

For example, you can upgrade the [Forerunner Apple of Eden] to unlock more effects; or change the target of [Force Summon].

[Disappearance·Intermediate] → [Disappearance·Grandmaster]

[Vanishing Grandmaster]: Cooldown limit is removed, effective range is increased, stun duration is increased to 6 seconds, weakens target's magic resistance and interrupts target's skills, charging, and magic circulation.

The skill [Disappear] used to have a cooldown, but Connor's mana is limited, and he can only use the skill two or three times during the mana recovery period. Since the total number of times the skill can be used is limited, the cooldown time doesn't matter.

After calculating the gains from the upgrade, Connor did not miss the opportunity to continue to gain experience here. Unless he reached the upper limit of accumulated experience, he did not want to do the upgrade tasks in the main world so early. Who knows if the next upgrade task will require him to find a way to swim back to the imperial capital from a remote island with nothing to assassinate the emperor?

Let’s practice some more!

When Connor came to his senses, he found that Youyou had already started preparing lunch.

Youyou looks much happier after learning advanced magic.

The girl from the Red Demon tribe took off her mid-length boots, rolled up her pink over-the-knee socks and put them inside her boots, and walked barefoot on the fine river sand and smooth pebbles in the shallow part of the river looking for traces of fish. Occasionally she reached out to grab them but came up empty-handed.

But the great magician never gets tired of it.

It's not so much about looking for food as it is about venting past depression in this way.

“Hahahaha! I am Youyou! A great magician who can use advanced magic, the one who carries the blue lightning! As the number one magician of the Crimson Demon Clan, I will one day become the patriarch of this village!”

Youyou struck three poses in a row, which he thought looked handsome, but were actually quite childish.

Immediately afterwards, there was a thunder in the clear sky, and a huge lightning bolt fell from the sky and hit a fish that was swimming leisurely past it.

"Advanced magic, sword of light!"

“Hahahahaha! Just surrender!”

Connor, who witnessed all this, said: Youyou is abnormal because the Crimson Demons are too abnormal and Youyou is normal, so she appears abnormal; but outside the Crimson Demon Village...

The Red Devil Index is definitely not low after Youyou is released!

Apart from the Crimson Demons, who else would be so extravagant as to use advanced magic to catch fish! And it’s electric fishing!

It’s electric fishing where both you and the fish are in the water!

There must be something wrong with your brain!

Connor felt that he could no longer stand by and watch, because...

“It’s numb! Help… Help!”

The fish and Youyou, the other fish in the pond, were floating on the river at the same time.

One belly is facing up, and the other belly is also facing up.

It was difficult to fish Youyou out of the river. The fish was chopped into pieces and thrown into the pot. The snow-white fish soup was bubbling with steam.

Youyou sat by the campfire, warming her body and clothes, hugging her knees and almost burying her face in them.

“You…how much did you just see…” Tears welled up in Youyou’s eyes. If Connor had seen her previous outburst of childish behavior as the Red Devil, she would rather have been electrocuted and thrown into the river and floated away with the current.

Connor: "Carrying the blue lightning..."

Youyou covered her face with her hands and started crying.

Obviously I gained experience from defeating monsters, and I could use advanced magic and make friends. These two joys would bring me many more joys...

I should have had this dreamlike happy time...

But...but why did it turn out like this!

Social death, social death in the true sense of the word!

"Okay, okay, it's nice to indulge yourself occasionally." Connor patted Youyou who was still sniffling, selected the most beautiful griffin feather from the spoils, waved it in front of Youyou, and then placed it in her hand, "How about we communicate a little bit?"

Youyou barely stopped crying and pushed Lingmao back: "No, no, no...that's not what I meant...this is too expensive..."

This griffin feather carries strong magical power. Even without being processed, it is still a powerful magic item. It is very suitable for Youyou, a magician who can use magic power directly. The fire magic and flying magic on it enhance Youyou's firepower and make up for the magician's lack of mobility.

"If it weren't for you, Youyou, discovering the blind spot, we wouldn't know when we would encounter the griffin."

Connor took the feather and reinserted it on the edge of Youyou's headdress, then extended his hand to Youyou:

"Youyou, do you still have the energy to explore the griffin's nest after dinner?"

104. Dedicate a three-dimensional mobile device to the beautiful rock wall

The griffin's nest is easy to find. As the overlord of an area, the griffin also has a proud character among many superior monsters. Their minefields are often hundreds of kilometers around the mountain nest they choose, so just find the nearby mountain peaks.

In the forest, apart from the highland castle occupied by the Demon King's army cadres, the only place in the northwest that is suitable for the habit of griffins is the settlement.

With the help of magic, Connor and Yoyo trekked through the forest for several days and finally saw the cliff they were looking for.

The cliff is very steep, the mountain is steep and the rocks are jagged.

The environment around the cliff is completely different from the nearby forest. The sky here is always gloomy, with thick clouds blocking the sun, and the cool wind makes a whistling sound.

"There is wind, it looks like we are in the right place." Connor compared it with the map and said to Youyou.

Over the past few days, he found that the great magician of the Red Demon Clan, apart from sometimes liking cute little animals, had shown resilience that amazed everyone. He did not look spoiled at all.

"Well, the wind can help the griffin cub practice flying when it has not accumulated enough magic power. It is such a harsh environment that can cultivate a monster as powerful as a superior monster."

Youyou put his hands behind his back and puffed out his chest proudly.

How about this? A great magician, a knowledgeable magician who can answer any question. Isn't that amazing? !

"I'm not only useful in battle~" Youyou thought to herself. Compared to Connor's near "omnipotence" in surviving in the wild, Youyou felt that as a friend, she must also demonstrate equal value. Blindly asking for things will not make this friendship last.

"so high……"

With a plop, Connor lay flat on the grass. He only needed to walk a few more steps to reach the stone area occupied by the cliff.

"Connor...what is this?" Youyou asked in confusion. Why should he lie down?

"Looking up is too tiring, this way I can see up there."

Connor explained, pointing up the cliff.

"It's really high...Is it higher than the clouds?" Youyou thought for a moment and used her staff to hold down her skirt, lying down like Connor.

Youyou couldn't see the top of the mountain, but she and Connor both saw a huge nest made of various things such as branches, grass leaves, feathers, fur, etc. near the clouds, as well as some shining things.

Perhaps it was the metals and gems collected by the griffin, or the magical props on the adventurers, that became the things the griffin used to decorate its nest.

"When I think about the fact that I still have such a high mountain to climb, I feel so tired..." Youyou looked at the unclimbable cliff. It was almost impossible to climb up from the front. If she took a detour, she would have to go around a long circle.

The griffin placed its nest here for the safety of its cubs.

“You don’t have to crawl.” After spending these days together, Connor knew that Youyou couldn’t fly. Fortunately, he had other ways, otherwise just taking a detour would be enough to get him into trouble.

"Not crawling? How can that be possible!" Youyou immediately sat up, her face slightly swollen with anxiety.

"An adventurer who can't rob a bird's nest is not a good adventurer! We have gone through so much trouble to defeat the griffin and the manticore, and walked so far to see the griffin's nest. If we don't climb up, won't all our efforts be wasted?! Please don't give up!"

"That's not a big deal," Connor signaled Youyou not to worry, and handed over a piece of griffin jerky and a bottle of water for Youyou to replenish her energy first. "What I mean is that you don't necessarily need to climb a mountain or take a detour to get up there."

“No need to climb the mountain or take a detour?” Youyou looked at Connor suspiciously, but out of trust in her friend, she chose to believe him. She took the water and dried meat and chewed them slowly.

"Don't worry, I'll keep my word. Once we get up there, I'll treat you to a feast in the griffin's nest."

Connor was also chewing some jerky. The dry and hard meat strips were very salty and chewy, and he needed to drink a lot of water.

"Hmm..." Youyou was busy grinding her teeth and only spit out a few meaningless bytes.

After slightly relieving herself from the fatigue of the long journey and replenishing her energy and water, Youyou got up and tidied her clothes, only to find that Connor was no longer wearing a simple assassin's master uniform, but had many belts of unknown meaning.

There were also devices on the waist and thighs that Youyou was completely unfamiliar with.

After a brief stretch, Connor half-knelt down and waved to Youyou: "Come up."

Youyou: “Ah?”

"Come on up, I'll carry you up." Connor explained. Isn't the 3D maneuverable device used for climbing high?

He tried it and found that the hook of the three-dimensional mobile device could be completely inserted into the rocks of the cliff and was very useful.

"Carry me up?" Youyou secretly glanced at Connor's back and didn't dare to move for a moment.

"Uh, it's okay. I'll tie us together with a safety rope so we won't fall."

Connor showed the safety rope in his hand. It was a rope woven from soft rattan and became very strong after the moisture was dried.

"No, no, no...that's not what I meant. I meant...I..." Youyou was a little anxious, and for a long time she couldn't explain why she didn't dare to go up.

Connor understood that Youyou must be a little embarrassed.

But if I don't carry you on my back, letting Youyou hug me from the front would be even worse. I have one hand free to hold Youyou but I can't prepare for any emergency.

“Hmm… I remember that every time Megumin used Explosion Magic, she would be carried back by someone. The Crimson Demons shouldn’t have similar prohibitions, right?”

"Hui Hui?" You You asked, "Hui Hui found teammates?"

“Yes, Huihui has found a very good teammate. Kazuma carries the exhausted Huihui back home every day.”

“Then I can do it too!” Youyou rubbed her boots on the ground for a few times, and finally prepared herself mentally under Huihui’s stimulation.

Determined not to lose to Huihui, Yunyun wrapped her arms around Connor's neck...

"Loosen up! Loosen up!"
