The swift sickle fiercely slashed through the desire cultists, and the swirling whirlwind instantly blew away the surrounding haze.

"Sorry Sister Fangyue, it took me a little longer to prepare. Leave it to me from now on!"

Xiaoyan carried a sickle and stood beside Qin Fangyue with a determined look.

The magic circle he just completed was the Azure Dragon Summoning, which summoned the Azure Dragon, one of the four sacred beasts, to gain powerful strength.

The sickle in his hand represents summoning. Now the formation of the Azure Dragon Shikigami is released with Xiaoyan as the core.

His teammates bought time for him in the early stages, and this was the time for him to shine!

"Wake up! But don't talk."

At this time, Roland was trapped in prison. This was a soul dilemma created by Beelzebub in order to control Roland and seize his body.

But suddenly a whisper rang in his ears. It was a voice from reality, so it was particularly clear. He woke up with a start and subconsciously tried to sit up, but found that he was being held down. He could only lie on his back, watching the treetops above his head illuminated by the light, and the branches and leaves trembled.

Then, the face of the nameless elf appeared in his sight. He raised the wizard's staff, but did not release the magic light. So, where did the light that illuminated the treetops come from?

"Shh, don't make any sound, take a deep breath, and then sit up very slowly. Don't be nervous, I'm here." He put his finger to his lips and made a gesture of silence.

Roland's sleepiness disappeared in an instant, but he still maintained a calm expression. He propped up the blanket with his elbows and slowly straightened up. During the whole process, he could feel the ground shaking.

"What's the matter?" he mouthed to the nameless elf.

The wizard in a black robe pointed in a direction with his staff, and Roland looked over. Through the layers of trees, he could still vaguely see something emitting a disgusting smell, moving in the woods like a huge rotten thing.

"This is a monster of a lord, Beelzebub, the Lord of Flies. This guy must have lived for tens of thousands of years. I have never seen such a big monster of the Lord of Flies. If it weren't for the leaves blocking it, you could see its core by just looking up, although it's not very close yet." The nameless elf whispered to him.

Roland opened his mouth but said nothing, his eyes wide open.

He pretended that he had never seen this thing before.

"Don't be afraid. I know that elves and elements are mortal enemies, but it can't hurt you because it can't beat me." The nameless elf whispered to comfort him, "But try to avoid fighting. I need to save some mana."

The elf girl still looked uneasy, her eyes following the red glowing objects moving in the forest. They were the legs of the elemental lord.

"It, it, it's coming towards us!" Roland said in a trembling voice.

"It's okay, I'll open a virtual world rift and exile us away!" said the nameless elf, taking out a feather pen from his backpack, poking the tip of the pen into his index finger so that it would be stained with blood, and then he quickly drew a magic circle on a relatively flat ground.

"We have to hide inside before this lord comes. Be quick, Roland. Do you know Fire Dragon Grass, Void Mushrooms and Hematite Powder?" said the nameless elf while drawing a magic circle.

Roland nodded quickly: "I know this!"

"Very good, I have them all in my backpack, find them and hand them to me." The nameless elf said without even looking up. Opening the elemental rift involves communicating with the virtual world, and the array is extremely complex, so he cannot be distracted.

Roland quickly took out three glass bottles from the nameless elf's backpack. The first one contained a few small grasses. The roots had several cracks, and red light shone through the inside, as if there was a flame burning inside. The second bottle had a magic circle carved on the wall, and it was unclear what was inside. There was another bottle filled with red powder.

"Do you need me to feed you the mind-clearing potion?"

Roland asked, holding up the second bottle. He was also testing the elf's bottom line.

An elf appeared in the wasteland near the imperial capital? No matter how you think about it, it feels wrong.

The nameless elf took the bottle with magic circles drawn on it from his hand and said, "No, this void mushroom is very powerful. You will be swallowed by it. Let me do it."

After saying that, she flicked open the lid with one hand. Almost at the same moment, a purple flash flew out, but was then firmly grasped by the nameless elf. This was a mushroom, with a dark purple cap. There were small whirlpools on the mushroom, which led to the virtual world, and purple thunder flashed through it, which was fascinating.

The nameless elf lifted the mushroom to his mouth and swallowed it in one gulp.

Suddenly, purple light appeared in her eyes, and the whites of her eyes turned into a crystal-like dark purple, with faint flashes of lightning inside, while the pupils faded to dazzling white. He took a deep breath, and his eye sockets were a little cracked, and the wounds also showed purple light. He reached out to Roland, took the fire dragon grass and hematite powder from the almost frightened elf girl, then poured them on the ground and crushed them, dipped the feather pen in them, and continued to draw the magic circle.

"Candle, candle!" the nameless elf shouted in an ethereal and hoarse voice that was almost not his own. Roland hurriedly took out a candle from his bag and lit it for him. He placed the candle in the center of the drawn magic circle, then his eyes focused slightly, and the candle went out instantly. The magic circle drawn with blood emitted a red light, and then the lawn sank, and a bottomless pit appeared. The black inside was as thick as liquid, and there were stars flashing.

Roland breathed a sigh of relief, looking as if he had seen a savior.

But the elf would never understand why Roland behaved like this.

With the help of the elf's spell, Roland also took advantage of the situation and diverted the dangerous target before completing the divination.

He saw the group of people facing the Demon King, and also saw the girl holding a sword and fighting with the Cultists of Desire.

"How could it be her?"

Roland couldn't help but frown. He didn't expect that Ye Qing, Huangfu Wenning and others would be fighting with the Demon King.

But he thought about it again. They went to his sister's tavern to investigate the Demon King, and now they were fighting the Demon King. It didn't seem strange to do so.

After a brief thought, Roland also made a decision.

He had to help those two people, no matter which side they were on, as long as they were enemies of the devil that the old emperor relied on!

"Wow, you are so awesome! Such a big virtual world fruit, probably hundreds of years old, and you just swallowed it like that, and you didn't fall into the virtual world on the spot?" As he said this, he planned to drill into the unfathomable cave.

The nameless elf stretched out his hand to stop him. At this time, his eyes were still glowing purple, and his eye sockets were cracked, but his voice returned to normal: "Don't worry, let's take another look at this monster. Believe me, we won't regret it. This is also the first time I have seen the monster of Beelzebub, the Lord of the Flies."

However, Roland did not dare to tell the nameless elf that he had probably attracted this thing himself.

Chapter 51 A sudden mission

Four hundred steps away from where the two of us were, outside the border defense line of the wilderness, a small river was swollen due to the previous heavy rain and was now flowing freely, with white waves splashing on the rocks on the shore. A toad squatted in the middle of the wet cracks in the rocks, looking to see if there were any insects that would fall into its trap.

Suddenly, the toad's eyes bulged, its air sacs contracted violently twice, and then it opened its mouth uncontrollably. It spat out a wooden stick longer than its body, one end of which was wrapped in gold foil, and it probed around like a blind person using a cane to sense the environment.

"Yes, it's safe." A vague human voice came from the toad's stomach, and then its mouth expanded again, and Roland came out directly from it holding the dog and the elf. The frog then returned to its normal size and jumped into the rapids not far away in panic, looking terrified.

The dog jumped out of Roland's arms and began to shake its yellow fur as soon as it landed, trying to get rid of the mucus stuck on it. Roland also got some mucus on his body, but it was just the liquid secreted by frogs to moisten their skin, so it was not disgusting, and it would evaporate naturally after a while, leaving no trace.

"Well, don't try to complain in this way. I can cast an invisibility spell on myself, or just teleport out. The confiscated sealing array is useless to me, but that would consume mana. The frog passage, a trick that even an apprentice can perform, is undoubtedly the most economical method. As the saying goes, 'Never use witchcraft to solve a problem that can be solved with a magic array.'"

Roland looked at the elf's disgusted expression and said, then added, "Well, ordinary apprentices may not be able to perform the Frog Secret Passage. They will most likely be swallowed by frogs. But what I mean is that this technique does not require any spellcasting at all."

"By the way, what's your name?"

Roland thought about it and decided to at least ask the other person's name. After all, the other person saved his life.

"...You asked me my name right away?" The elf girl took a few steps back again.

Roland cleared his throat awkwardly. "Ahem, my question is not quite right. I heard that the true names of you elves have mysterious powers and cannot be told to outsiders casually. So, what should I call you? By the way, you can call me Roland."

The elf girl tilted her head and thought about it.

"Well... I remember she told me to just say this if someone else asks," she finally said with a smile.

"me?"

The elf girl tilted her head back and smiled, the beauty mole at the corner of her eye looked quite charming.

"My name is Ye Zhi~"

"Then Yeats, I would like you to be a guide and help me remove the curse from me."

Roland knew very well that even if he wanted to go back and help directly, something bad would happen if Beelzebub's control was not removed.

He is a wizard, so at least he can help Ye Qing and others remotely.

And now Beelzebub's control has been lifted for some reason, and he has turned into a dangerous monster wandering in the wasteland forest. This is a great opportunity.

The elf girl didn't say anything, but showed a confused expression, as if she suspected that she had heard it wrong. If punctuation marks could be used alone, she would definitely say: "???"

Roland nodded in confirmation: "You heard me right, come with me. I need an elf guide to take me to the wilderness. I can teach you some high-level spells as a reward."

"A wizard of your level also needs a guide? I don't believe you. I just heard you say 'it's so beautiful'. Do you have any ideas about me?" The elf girl hugged her not-so-perfect chest with both hands and took a step back with a vigilant look on her face.

"Okay, Ye Zhi, I'll take it that you agree to go with me. Which high-level spells do you think are suitable for you to learn? Dragon's Breath? It doesn't seem suitable for you elves..." Roland stroked his chin with his fingers and pondered.

Ye Zhi stood on tiptoe to protest: "Hey, when did I promise you?"

"... Gushing spell? No, no, we don't need that in the woods. Then the Void Banishing Spell, or the Falling Star Spell? Let me think..." Roland continued to talk to himself. Ye Zhi was listening beside him with her eyes wide open. She tried to pretend to be disdainful, but her pointed ears betrayed her.

After Roland finished reciting a long string of high-level spells, she carefully raised her hand and asked, "Roland, can I choose any of the ones you mentioned?"

"Well...as long as you can learn it." Roland looked at her.

"Come on, you are kidding. Of course I can learn it." Ye Zhi said immediately. Then she lowered her head and whispered, "Okay, I will follow you, but you must not have any intentions towards me."

Roland made a victory gesture behind his back, which was seen by the big dog Perti. It barked and expressed its contempt for its owner.

"Then I will lead you to explore the wilderness from now on! Hehe, it's a rare opportunity to have a great wizard following us. I need to think carefully about which secret places we should explore." Ye Zhi smiled and approached Roland. "I'm your guide, you have to listen to me. You have to go wherever I say, and you are not allowed to refuse!"

Following the jumping elf girl, Roland and the big dog with blue light all over their body looked at each other. This guide didn't seem very reliable.

"I'm so tired. When can we take a break?" Ye Zhi leaned against the tree trunk and yawned.

Roland reminded: "The wilderness is very dangerous, remember? We have to find a safe place to camp."

At this time, both of them were already dusty. Roland's black robe was covered with mud and grass leaves, and the soles of his boots were covered with a thick layer of soil. The staff he used as a walking stick was also gray. The grass on Ye Zhi's skirt was a little messy, and her white feet were now covered with a lot of mud, and her golden hair was a little gray. At first, she would stop every once in a while to clean herself with the fountain spell, but later she was too lazy to do it anymore.

"Ah, a safe campsite, I forgot about it. I've never been so tired before... ha... even in an elf body." Ye Zhi yawned again and straightened up his body that was leaning against the tree trunk listlessly, "Wizard, where are we going?"

Roland thought for a moment and said, "I need to know what is happening in the wilderness. Why did you move to the edge of the forest?"

"I, I don't know much either. I heard from our tribe leader that the supernatural powers have been a little too active recently, and the elves have always been reluctant to get involved in these troublesome matters, so we moved our base to the edge of the forest, where the magic power is not so strong." Ye Zhi said thoughtfully, "However, the tribe leader was here that time and could provide us with magic power for flying, so the migration process was also easy - at least easier than it is now."

"Extraordinary? This is the fourth time I've heard someone mention it..." Roland muttered.

"Sleepers won't wake up without reason. Something must have stimulated them. Alas, there is no clue now. Forget it, let's camp here and take turns to keep watch." Roland shook his head. There were too many strange things in the wilderness. If there was only this little clue, nothing could be deduced. With his strength, as long as he was not ambushed, he would definitely be able to save his life.

----

Just after the two men set off, the people who were fighting fiercely in the portal finally brought the battle to an end.

With the cooperation of Xiaoyan and Anjie, Qin Fangyue released her finishing blow and completely took away the cultist of desire.

However, the mission was not going to end immediately. After the mission rewards were sent to their backpacks, the teleportation light lit up again and sent them directly to a forest.

"here it is?"

Ye Qing frowned immediately. If she remembered correctly, this was clearly the wasteland forest transformed from the Orc Highlands.

"Everyone gather together and be careful around you!"

Huangfu Wenning, who was a scout, had already noticed something was wrong, so she quickly called out in the team channel, signaling everyone to report to the group.

The heavy footsteps coming from not far away further confirmed her guess.

Urgent Mission: Destroy the monsters of Beelzebub the Lord of the Flies

Task Description: None

Mission Reward: Legendary Equipment of Your Choice

? !!

Everyone present was stunned, even Ye Qing.

At this moment, a warm and bright fire was burning deep in the woods. A blanket was spread on the ground next to the fire, and two people and a dog sat around the fire.

Roland put the dried meat he brought on sticks and roasted it over the fire.

"Would you like to eat something?" he asked the elf girl beside him, who was now holding her hands above the flames, half-closing her eyes, looking intoxicated.

"Well, I don't want to eat it. The meat has been pickled and dried. I would rather convert my magic into energy. Let's go catch some animals to eat tomorrow." She opened her eyes and looked at the dried meat with some disgust.

Roland smiled bitterly. The meat was indeed not very tasty. Even the big dog Perty had no appetite and was still staring at his fur that was glowing blue.

Roland chewed the dried meat patty roughly and swallowed it whole. Then he stood up, patted the dust off his butt, picked up the wizard's staff, and opened the backpack beside him.

"Okay, let's do some witchcraft. We're too lazy to draw the magic circle." As he said this, he pointed the end of the wizard's staff wrapped with gold foil at a small piece of ground not far away.

"Explode," he shouted in the language of prayer to the gods.

A ball of fire rose from the ground, and then the smoke and dust dissipated, revealing a pit half a person deep.

"Purification, spring." He chanted the spell repeatedly. A golden light flashed, and the small pit that burst out of the soil became spotless, without a single ash or residue. Then, a pool of spring water suddenly gushed out of the pit, quickly filling the pit, and then stopped flowing upwards.

Hearing the cheers of the elves behind him, he pointed to the small pit and said, "Cool spring water, who wants a drink? Ladies first."

While Yeats was lying beside the puddle without any image, drinking the sweet and clear spring water thirstily, Roland simply set up a magic circle and changed Perti's fur color back to normal.

"Don't eat anything carelessly in the future. I'm counting on you to help me a lot, so don't die." Roland patted Perti's head. The latter growled a few times in his throat to show that he understood, then squatted aside, admiring his yellow hair with satisfaction.

After a brief rest, Roland cast a purification spell on everyone again. The effect of his spell was completely different from Yeats's spell. After being baptized by his high-level purification spell, the two people and the dog lay on the blanket contentedly, their bodies refreshed and free of dust.

The fire was still burning, and Pertti had begun to snore. In the wilderness, hugging a small campfire was like hugging warmth and safety.

"Why are you wearing such light clothes? At least you should put on some shoes. It breaks my heart just looking at you." Roland blurted out something out of the blue in the silence.

Yeats, who was lying on the other side, complained in a low voice: "How should I know? This is the author's request."

Roland nodded and agreed: "That is indeed a reason."

After a while, he said again: "Why did you lie on my back this afternoon?"

The elf girl was silent for a while, then whispered, "Too boring."
