Quit the team, then picked up a beautiful girl with problems

"How to say?"

"I would like you to agree to my unreasonable request."

The blue girl floated closer to Li Ang, her bare feet stepping on the void, making it impossible to tell whether she was floating or standing in the air.

As his face got closer, her features became clearer. After someone said she looked like Zoe last time, Leon observed her carefully this time, and the feeling became even clearer.

But overall she was thinner than the vigorous wild cat, and the simple lines of her beautiful little feet lacked curvature, which was obviously different from the guy's slightly fleshy feet.

Leon felt that Ivenis seemed to be a little sad. She looked at the Annihilation Star Soul groaning in pain, her eyes lowered. "I want to ask you, don't kill it. Even if it's just a fragment, it is still a complete part of it."

"This……"

Li Ang was really hesitant.

This Annihilator is not a good thing no matter how you look at it. If destroying the clone can weaken the original body, that would of course be better.

"I know my request is too willful."

Yvénice shook her head, her face, as delicate as Zoe's, revealing a sorrowful expression. "I knew this day would come. It would stand in your way. Destroying it is the best thing, even if it means..."

The girl's lips moved, but she didn't continue speaking. She just lowered her head even more. "I want you to bring Zoe here."

"Why did you call her?"

If Ivenice hadn't openly begged him not to destroy the Annihilator clone, Leon would have thought she wanted to summon Bahamut again.

"Only with her power can we send this clone to where it should be."

Yvénis lowered her head and said, "I will keep an eye on it and prevent this part from coming out and affecting you in the future. Is that okay?"

Leon could hear the cry in her voice. This girl had helped him many times. In front of the most dangerous blood-red demon, if she hadn't summoned Bahamut, the outcome would still be unknown.

"Annihilator, honestly, if it's behind the Empire, Zoe will definitely have to fight it in the future."

Li Ang sighed: "I don't know why you came to me so early in the morning. I think it must be related to my relationship with Zoe, right?"

Ivinis looked at Leon quietly, with an inexplicable emotion in her eyes.

"Yes." She was silent for a while and finally gave an affirmative response.

"If you can prevent this part from coming to attack us, we can let it go for now."

Li Ang scratched his head. "I can't make subjective judgments, but you've helped me several times, and it's hard for me to refuse."

Looking at Ivenice's expression, he really couldn't refuse outright. He also didn't have much doubt about this girl, after all, she could even call out the name of a dragon with the name of a god.

A smile slowly appeared on Ivinis's sad face.

"Ask the Star Soul over there for help and bring her here."

Leon looked at Diana and found that the fairy girl seemed to be able to move during the moment when Ivenice paused, but her mind was like a child. After being frightened by the Annihilator, she didn't dare to come over and talk.

The power of the Star Soul... The Azure Girl and Zoe are so similar...

Leon looked at Yvenice: "Can you talk to her?"

Hearing this, the young girl was about to respond, but then she seemed to think of something and suddenly looked withdrawn.

"I-I shouldn't have gone."

The girl's eyes inexplicably reddened. "I'm not like Zoe, walking in the bright sunshine, with you protecting her and loving her. She can receive the power of various magnificent star souls and also carries their hopes, but I only have..."

She didn't finish her words, but glanced at the Annihilator clone from a distance, and then her figure suddenly disappeared, as if she had never existed.

Time began to pass again, leaving only the warm rise and fall of the sky blue ring, like Ivenice's heartbeat.

Leon took a breath, asked Otto to slow down his attack, and then walked towards Diana and Yueyin Rabbit standing on the head of the mecha.

……

On the surface of Mengze Island, when the monsters rioted, Zoe and the other three people joined together and, according to Leon, joined the battle to resist the monsters.

The town closest to the swamp where Huanwo Village is located is called Chaoxun Town. A Baomu poisonous dragon directly targeted it and knocked down the town's simple guardrails, ready to start a massacre.

After a fierce battle, the Star Flower Troupe, together with other adventurers who happened to be there, killed the dragon before the damage was further sustained.

Other monsters were also destroyed.

Zoe pulled the dagger from a water snake and breathed a sigh of relief.

After the strange face above the island suddenly disappeared, the monsters gradually stopped making trouble, so in the end we only needed to finish off the half-dead monsters and we should be able to declare victory.

"We saved many innocent people." Although Alulu was covered in blood and the heat had mixed the dirt and sweat together, making her look a mess, her face was filled with a pure smile at the moment.

A member of the local guild office was frantically writing something down in a notebook. "Yeah, that's a big help. What's the name of your group? This will be considered your reward."

"Of course, who works for nothing?" Dorothy pounded her waist against the wall.

"Thank you so much." said the village laborer who was temporarily armed.

"Hehe." Zoe raised her chin happily.

"But I just don't know why there is a demonic disaster." said Minfu.

"It's not called a demonic plague," the guild clerk said. "It's called a demonic riot, or a demonic tide. A demonic plague is much more dangerous."

"Isn't this a demonic disaster? What's that weird face in the sky? Also, did I see the Flower God? Is that the Flower God?"

"Well, this is indeed not right."

The clerk wiped his sweat off his forehead and said, "This anomaly must be caused by special circumstances. And that giant girl who looks like a flower goddess, I'm going to die writing this report."

The civilians smiled. After the crisis, no one had a tense face anymore.

"I just don't know who caused this. It really hurt us."

Zoe paused while wiping the sword, and was also a little slow in sheathing the Sword of Breath of Wind.

"Who are they?" the guild clerk said. "It looks like the cultists have summoned some monsters. They haven't been apprehended yet, so the crisis isn't completely over."

"Why are these bastards coming to Mengze Island to cause trouble? Is there no one who can control them?"

Alulu watched Zoe walk out of town without a word and trotted after her. Dorothy was also confused, but she sighed and followed.

"Where are you going? There may still be monsters wandering outside." Alulu asked.

"I, I remembered something."

Zoe's face no longer had the joy she had just had. "Tell me, there are some things that clearly have nothing to do with me, but at the same time, they seem to be related to me. What should I do?"

Alulu was confused: "What are you talking about?"

"That's right, those bad guys, they actually..."

Zoe thought about her parents, the bad guys in the empire, and the goal of finding the Star Soul. These things were such a mess that she had no idea where to start.

"Alas, I don't know anything. I just want to help Leon. I don't care about anything else... He should have won, right? Why hasn't he come back yet?"

She just stomped her feet, splashing the accumulated water under her feet.

"Hey, that splashed me," said Dorothy.

Zoe rolled her eyes at her: "You're much dirtier than this water."

"Really? Then you try it too!"

The half-elf jumped over and stamped his feet, and then the two of them began to struggle in the water, splashing the water everywhere.

There was no anger between the two of them at first, but after a few fights they started playing like children.

Alulu was standing there quietly, but the water splashed by the two of them sprayed all over her face, and then she joined in the treading of water.

The clear laughter of the three people spread throughout the grassland and wilderness.

After the war, Andasu sat on the edge of a roof, flipping through the mechanic's notes. Seeing the three people fooling around, he shook his head and continued reading his own studies.

In the grass, Diana appeared with Leon.

"Ah, it's Leon!"

The first time Zoe saw him, she rushed over through the puddles and hugged him tightly.

Leon was fighting in the cave. He had a shield and could fly. Although his enemies were much stronger, he was not as miserable as these three guys. Instead, he was wiped all over by the cat.

He was about to complain, but he saw that Zoe's eyes were red.

"Hey? What's wrong?"

Hearing his soft question, the girl wanted to cry even more, but she just wiped her tears and didn't cry out loud.

"Just now, someone said that they were badly hurt."

"Yeah," Leon sighed, "The Empire is really a jerk."

Diana on the side also had a look of horror on her face. The Star Soul Girl who had brought so many precious woods for shipbuilding to the Sky Knights of Newbiss now looked like a frightened little animal.

Did the annihilation of the Star Soul Genoside in ancient times leave too deep an impression on her?

"I, I was thinking that all these things happened because of me..."

Zoe said, lowering her head.

"You think it's your fault because of the Empire's troubles. What's with Yaya Meng?"

"Because it's related to the Star Soul, and it seems to be related to my parents, so it's related to me. Sister Eden wants me to collect the power of the Star Soul, but I clearly..."

Zoe hugged Leon tighter: "I only wanted to help Leon build a team."

While she was talking, neither Dorothy nor Alulu interrupted her. The former, in particular, looked at the girl with a gentle expression, and it was unclear what part of her sympathy she felt.

Li Ang also had some inexplicable emotions in his heart, but overall he was positive.

Of course, he could see that the girl was beginning to think about things like responsibilities and obligations.

She realized her own extraordinary status as the Star Soul Greenhouse, and felt that it was her responsibility to prevent any disaster caused by the empire.

From the beginning, Li Ang had no intention of letting her deliberately escape or actively confront the so-called "main line of the game". His starting point was to lure this world protagonist, who would definitely be very powerful, on board.

After establishing their bond, he decided that if she needed some time to follow the main storyline, he would accompany her and help her. Once she had dealt with the inevitable issues she would face, the rest of her life would be his.

Before these things happened, he just helped her grow up faster.

If the time comes when you must face it, then use the strength you've accumulated and face it fearlessly. We'll see what happens next.

"First of all, this is definitely not your fault. Even if you are involved, but you have no subjective malice, then the person who did the bad thing must be at fault.

"You have this feeling, actually you feel the shackles imposed by fate, which forces you to face and deal with certain things. Many people will want to break it, some will escape, and some will choose to accept it after struggling. Sometimes these choices are neither right nor wrong—"

"Hey, you look like an old man," Dorothy complained.

"You're like a little kid, you even like treading water."

"Shouldn't this be a plus point for being cute? I'll poke you to death." The half-elf poked Leon hard with his finger.

When it comes to the empire, Leon feels that Dorothy doesn't care about fighting with Zoe, but instead cares about the little wild cat.

"I think it's better to smash it." Zoe said with her face pressed against Leon.

Li Ang couldn't help but smile: "Okay, after we build the boat, we will go find the Star Soul behind."

He looked at the devastated town in the distance and the people's complaints after the disaster. She felt sympathetic and began to reflect on herself, thinking that she was such a good child.

Holding Zoe's shoulders and letting her stand upright, he bent down slightly and said, "There is something important that only you can do now. Come together."

"Okay." Zoe nodded without hesitation.

243. Healing the Wounds of the Star Soul

With the help of Diana, Leon led the entire Star Flower Brigade into the cave.

At this moment, the appearance of the Annihilation Star Soul was even more terrifying, which scared the girls and they didn't even bother to look at the surrounding dragon bones and dense water crystals.

The amplified damage from the spiritual piercing was more severe than expected. Otto's calm and composed slashing attack prevented its body from reshaping. White asphalt-like external matter flowed everywhere, and purple-black flesh and blood mixed with it flowed everywhere. "Is this the strange face in the sky?"

Zoe looked at Genoside in surprise: "I felt it, it is also a star soul."

"Brother, was this the thing you were fighting just now?" asked Alulu.

The girls were shocked by the creature's ugliness and stayed away from it. Besides its appearance, their perception of its powerful and strange magic was also a factor.

"It's already in the final stages, and it has no energy left to resist," said Li Ang.

The girls breathed a sigh of relief.

Leon hadn't just brought Zoe with him; he'd also prepared them for the potential enemies they might encounter. As long as the empire's unknown ambitions persisted, they would likely face similar enemies.

Dorothy looked around, not lingering on the sea dragon skeleton for long, but mainly staring at the beautiful flower tree.
