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

When she came back, Leon took out some dry food and gave it to her. Dorothy, curled up in his arms, was sweating profusely, and her whole body seemed to be drenched in water. She gritted her teeth and suppressed the sound in her throat, but every time her body trembled, she couldn't help but cry out in pain.

In silence, Li Ang took a deep breath.

"According to theory and data, the probability of extraordinary monsters appearing in the place I chose is very low, and there will be no Sand Nest Demon Worms. But I should still be prepared for the unexpected."

His words made Zoe's eye twitch, and Dorothy, who was enduring the pain in his arms, also raised her face.

Dorothy's lips moved as if to speak. Zoe looked at her and said, "Why did that monster come here? Why was it able to come back to life?"

"I guess it's the influence of the demonic disaster that occurred in the airspace of Sabrum. Some people came to the Glittering Fields because of it, which triggered the monsters' mutation."

"Then it's not Leon's fault." Zoe frowned and said, "It's those people's fault."

The girl's words calmed Dorothy in Leon's arms, as if this was what the latter wanted to say.

Zoe poked the gravel on the ground with her sword, as if they were all enemies.

"In the four major airspaces, the impact of a single demonic disaster wouldn't be so widespread," Leon said. "The people who affected the sandworms came here for a specific purpose, which could lead to more dangers later."

"When Dorothy is well again, we'll leave the Glittering Fields and get out of this mess."

Zoe was silent for a moment, then frowned and looked up. "Do accidents often happen when fighting monsters in the wild?"

Li Ang thought about it and nodded, "The probability is probably more than half."

"why?"

"Because Newbis is a complex and ever-changing world, everything has spirits, and spirits can use magic to influence the world, causing it to change all the time. Even the most knowledgeable people cannot predict every situation. During a hunt, monsters may appear, the terrain may change unexpectedly, the weather may change suddenly, and disasters may occur suddenly."

"Then it's over."

Zoe cracked the gravel on the ground and said, "Since we will always encounter situations, we should learn to deal with them.

“Leon, if I were stronger, Sister Dorothy wouldn’t have been stung for me.

“You can protect us once or twice, but you can’t protect us forever.

"Leave after encountering a situation once? Run away when you meet someone more powerful? I don't want that."

Zoe held the Pure Star Crystal in her hand. "Just watch! I'll master it soon, and then break free from my shackles and enter the Transcendent Realm. You said before, no one on this island can surpass the Transcendent Realm. When that happens, I'll crush any enemy I come across."

"Me too..." Dorothy reached out and hooked her hand around the back of Leon's neck.

She closed her beautiful eyes and forced a smile: "As long as you are here, I can endure any pain, hehe. As long as you don't leave, anything is fine."

Under the cover of night, both girls expressed their determination.

The next morning, Dorothy was already well, but she still clung to Leon and refused to get off. Zoe hesitated to speak, but in the end, she said nothing.

Thinking of pampering her briefly, Leon did not abandon her. He carried her on his back to divide and sort the monster materials, put them on the assembled sand sled he had bought before, and dragged the materials back to the city.

Re-entering the urban settlement in the Glittering Wilderness, the atmosphere here is very different from before the three of them left.

Some people who had their weapons drawn were patrolling the streets without hesitation. When they saw Li Ang and his two companions, they walked straight towards them.

89. Paladin Girl

These people's skin and clothes were weathered by wind and sand. They walked towards them, looking at the sand sled of Leon and the other two without hesitation, and reached out to touch the monster materials, picking and choosing.

"doing what?"

Zoe stepped in front of them, her brow furrowed like a small animal whose painstakingly collected chestnuts had been turned over.

The leader wore a short shirt and a cape, and his bare arms and face were covered with scars. He looked at Zoe and Dorothy for a moment before asking:

"You are not even sand people. You don't know any rules."

Zoe tilted her head: "Rules."

"There are no rules." Leon put the girls behind him to block the sight of these people. "I've been to the Sabrum airspace many times, and I know that the bigger the fist, the more powerful the rule."

The scarred man grinned. "Looks like he's no ordinary gigolo. Have you heard of us?"

He pointed to the armband on his arm, which was a yellow skull and two scimitars.

"We are the 'Sand Corps'! An air cavalry group ranked within the top 3000 in the entire sky!"

Under 3000? It's no problem to brag about it in the four major airspaces.

Similar to the individual ranking segments, the Air Cavalry Regiment rankings also have segments, but there are no specific titles.

The top four captains can enter the Knights' Decision Council, the top 4 are known as the Heavenly Group, and those between 300 and 300 are considered to be well-known, and those below are not so well-known.

Although this person claims that his group is ranked within the top 3000, ranking 3000 and 301 are completely different concepts. The powerful ones will directly state their ranking instead of claiming to be within the top 3000.

Li Ang took a look at the panel. The scarred man was a level 3 warrior, and the minions behind him were all level 2. Considering the power of the four major airspaces, they were not weak, but their group would not exceed 2000.

"Never heard of it." Zoe shook her head.

The scarred man sneered, "Our boss is Blood Eagle, a top-level warrior of level 6!"

"I don't know him," Zoe said.

Li Ang rolled his eyes at her: "Of course you don't know."

Although he himself had never heard of it, the chaos in the airspace of Izablum was so severe that forces often rose and fell, and a huge force that dominated the mountain might emerge in a year or two.

The main thing was that Zoe had just come from a small rural area, yet she was talking to these people in a serious manner, which made Leon want to laugh.

"Asshole! Are you looking down on us?!"

The girl's simple thinking simply angered the group of air pirates.

Although they have officially registered as an air cavalry regiment, if they are in the airspace of Sabrum, they may turn around and take on dirty work in secret, and the guild cannot manage them in detail. The Order Sandstorm Regiment is often too busy to deal with the open disputes.

This group of sand corpses is most likely the air pirates that Farina reminded us of.

The scarred man stretched out his hand to the monster material: "We, the Sand Corps, are entrusted by the Platinum King to maintain order in the Flashing Fields and ensure the smooth running of the Platinum Race and the Flowing Silver Race!

"You are disturbing the order of the city, and now you will be fined!"

The man with the scar is not just a bandit, he is just talking nonsense.

Li Ang looked at the shops around him. The owners seemed to be angry but dared not speak out. No wonder the atmosphere of the whole street was not right. It turned out that the Sand Relic Group had looted it for various reasons.

King Platinum Leon knew that he was the leader of the Flashing Plains and the former great slave owner.

While there were other slave owners in this area, and the Platinum King wasn't the sole ruler, his influence grew as he profited from the two annual conferences. However, not the entire island was his kingdom. The Sand People—many people in the Sabrum skyspace—had a rebellious sense of self-identity. Those who made a living in the Glittering Plains wouldn't let the Platinum King manipulate them.

The two competitions have been held for many years. Why do we have to invite the Sand Relic Group to "maintain order" this year?

Judging from the expressions of the merchants and passers-by, this will only intensify the conflict.

"Don't touch my things!"

Zoe didn't care about the saying that a strong dragon cannot defeat a local snake, and she grabbed the hilt of the sword directly.

Just as she was about to pull it out, she hesitated and glanced at Li Ang, probably remembering the various instructions he had given her.

"What? Still want to do something?"

The scarred man sneered: "Offending our Sand Corps? You two girls can be sold for a good price."

He grabbed a piece of sandstone turtle shell and was about to put it in his arms, but he saw the pink leather underneath.

That is the bristly bast bark of the Sand Nest Demon Worm.

"Sandworm skin! Captain, they killed a sandworm."

"Tsk, so he's a hunter with some skills."

The scarred man's expression changed, and he put the materials back. "Just don't make any trouble, let's go."

These air pirates were very cunning. Realizing that they had hit a tough opponent, they immediately chose to run away.

"You guys stop!"

A childish voice suddenly interrupted.

Everyone present looked over. The person who came was a small person, less than 1.5 meters tall. Her face and skin were wrapped in white cloth, hiding her features. From her voice, they could tell it was a girl.

"Ah, it's the girl I saw at the ring before!"

Zoe recognized the other person at a glance. It was the opponent she had wanted to fight before.

The white cloth on the girl's face was less than before. Li Ang guessed that it had loosened and fell somewhere. The way she wrapped it, the white cloth could easily fall off during a fight.

Now, the horns on both sides of her small head can be seen very clearly. They are short and round like those on a calf's head.

While wrapping her face, she also wrapped her upper body with circles of cloth. Even so, she was as plump as an ordinary Ox-Horned woman.

The masked girl from the Ox Tribe stopped the scarred man and his gang: "You robbed and extorted in broad daylight, and bullied girls. Come with me to confess to the goddess."

The members of the Shahai Group looked at each other: We didn’t take anything?

"Little sister." Dorothy, who had been curled up on Leon's back, said to the girl, "We didn't get robbed, thank you. Don't mess with them alone."

“Ah, it’s that little girl discussing with the merchants in the distance.

"I heard she swept all the underground arenas, and she took all the bets today."

"The organizer said they're canceling the event for the next two days. They're investigating her to see who brought her in to disrupt the event."

Zoe also heard the merchant's words.

"All finished?"

Zoe pouted and said to Li Ang unhappily, "Look, if you don't let me fight, I won't have a chance."

Upon learning that Li Ang and the other two were not robbed, the Ox girl was stunned for a moment and fell into a brief period of thought.

Then, she continued in a baby voice, "Whether there is sin or not should be determined by behavior, not by the result. The doctrine states this... I think so..."

Alas, Holy Knight. Leon sighed in his heart.

Although the paladins of Newbiss are not exactly the same as those in a certain TRPG on Earth, they do not gain power by swearing an oath, and try to fulfill their oaths throughout their lives and always remind themselves not to break them, but they also have to abide by certain rules in order to become more and more powerful.

The girl's faceplate clearly states her occupation, so she must be kind and just in general.

"Today is really a ghost!"

The scarred man was furious: "You are just little bitches being so arrogant, do you really think the Sand Corps is vegetarians?"

He raised his hand and grabbed the girl from the Ox Horn Tribe.

Then he disappeared.

The people present searched for a long time before finding him on a wall not far away.

The girl withdrew her hand and looked at her palm: "I didn't control my strength again."

“You did a great job!”

Zoe rushed out and came to the side of the girl from the Horned Tribe: "My name is Zoe. Thank you for helping us. I've been annoyed with them for a long time!"

The members of the Sand Corps nearby drew their weapons and rushed over, but Zoe's Wind Breath Sword slashed out first. She used the Earth Sword Technique, hitting these people on the head with the blunt surface of the solid rock, knocking them dizzy and kneeling to the ground.

A sky pirate pounced on the girl from the Ox Horn Tribe, but she reached out and grabbed his head, raised her hand slightly, and lifted him up as easily as lifting a marshmallow.

Only then did she react to what Zoe said: "Oh, oh, my name is Alulu."

Zoe and Alulu fought with the sky pirates.

They quickly beat down a group of sky pirates, and in the distance they saw their accomplices patrolling. These people were like the minions that kept appearing in the game, and they kept coming as they beat them.

The Sand People merchants originally did not dare to resist the Platinum King and the entire huge sky pirate group, but now they can cheer from the sidelines.

"Come on, little girl! Kill these bandits!"

"After the fight, remember to run northwest. It's easier to get rid of them there."

"Kick him in the balls! Kick your man in the balls too if he gets unfaithful in the future!"

Don’t remind me of this, Li Ang thought to himself.

The two petite girls fought so hard that sand and rocks flew everywhere, and more and more air pirates fell to the ground.

Compared to these bandits who were wearing junk equipment, the two girls, one had the power provided by the Star Soul and the other had the natural body of a god of strength. They were able to completely crush the air pirates who were mainly level 2 with few level 3.

Leon had always wanted to find a suitable battle for Zoe so that she could understand her specific strength.

She is actually very special among people of the same level, and even some people in the extraordinary realm cannot do anything to her.

The girl switched between wind and earth swordsmanship freely. A level 3 warrior raised a hammer in both hands and approached behind a shield-bearing air thief. When her wind blade made the shield-bearer retreat several steps, the warrior took the opportunity to smash it with the hammer. However, Zoe did not even dodge and took the hammer directly.

The heavy hammer hit a layer of rock and soil shield that suddenly appeared. It was the star soul material shield of the Earth Serpent. It didn't even shake under the attack of the heavy hammer.

While the attacker was stunned, Zoe switched to earth swordsmanship and slashed. The material shield changed its form and attached to the sword, briefly turning her sword slash into an extended rock and earth club, directly knocking the opponent to the ground with the hammer.
