Reborn as a beautiful girl, I want to be the best in the world

three minutes

Zhao Manying had already started the countdown on the panel and shouted loudly to the team members in the team channel.

"Everyone, we still need to buy another three minutes. After three minutes, the buff activated by the NPC will allow us to pass through these air walls. Then it will be time for us to retreat!"

She then shared the countdown on her teammates' screens, grasped the dagger and shield in both hands, and stabbed them directly into the ground.

In an instant, a halo like holy light spread out from under Zhao Manying's feet, and the silver-white shadow of a holy lion emerged from the armor, enveloping everyone.

When the shadow of the holy lion appeared, the surrounding transparent walls finally reacted.

The shrill buzzing sound became more frequent, but the Holy Lion actually roared directly, and the wings behind it kept vibrating, coordinating with the halo under Zhao Manying's feet to directly block those transparent bodies.

"It worked? Was it the light attribute or the holy attribute attack that had the effect?!"

When Anjie saw this, she immediately raised her staff and cast spells of two attributes at the same time.

The light-attributed divine punishment and the sacred-attributed protective wall, the result is obvious.

The divine punishment representing the light attribute failed to cause any ripples, but the protective wall of the sacred attribute, combined with the roar of the holy lion, actually succeeded in pushing those transparent bodies back some distance.

"Holy attacks are effective! Xiaoyan, Fangyue, you guys assist Anjie, I'll pay attention to the time and distance for you!"

Huangfu Wenning shouted loudly, patted the two men on the shoulders and signaled them not to try again.

Neither of them has attacks with holy attributes, but they do have auxiliary skills that increase casting speed and mana recovery.

So now a clever situation has emerged, with the two output players supporting Anjie who is acting as an auxiliary.

Huangfu Wenning was not idle either. Under the pressure of the circle of existence in front of her, she was the only one who could calmly judge the distance.

Perhaps it was her past professional instinct that came into play. She looked at the traces of dragging and gave a rough number in her mind.

Two minutes and fifty is close to three minutes, and that's because the Holy Lion just fought off those things.

When it gets close to three minutes, these things will completely crush them. This time is very tight, and just delaying now is definitely not enough.

"Manying, I have an idea."

Huangfu Wenning walked quickly to Zhao Manying's side. She looked at Zhao Xin, who had to temporarily keep a distance in the air due to insufficient fuel in his jet, and her heart began to pound.

This is not just an idea, it can even be said to be a life-threatening idea.

"...What are you going to do?"

Zhao Manying didn't waste any words. She tried her best to maintain the Holy Lion and the halo, but the blocking effect was gradually decreasing.

"Go up and then come down. I'll work with Xiao Xin to attract attention."

"very dangerous!"

"I know."

The argument between the two did not last too long. Zhao Manying glanced at Huangfu Wenning, then nodded and said nothing more.

She knew that without Ye Qing's presence, it would be difficult for either of them to completely convince the other.

Since it's a desperate situation anyway, why not let Huangfu Wen Ning give it a try.

"Thank you~"

Huangfu Wenning turned around and returned to the center where everyone was. She gripped the sword in her hand and took a deep breath.

The damage that Zhao Xin received just now was enough to take away half of his health bar. Her resistance was similar to Zhao Xin's, but her aerial maneuverability was definitely not as good as Zhao Xin's.

But the more the situation was like this, the more excited Huangfu Wenning became.

Perhaps this is why she and Ye Qing are attracted to each other. They both have an inexplicable desire for danger.

"Xiao Xin, let's cooperate. Listen to my countdown and prepare to fly over from the side."

The voice in the team channel made Zhao Xin nod and refill the energy crystals. She then silently ran around these figures.

"3, 2, 1... Fly!"

The moment he finished speaking, Zhao Xin slapped the jet at his waist and flew out, coming face to face with those transparent figures at a very close distance.

As she flew past those figures, the first round of explosions came, but another figure also rushed into the air at the same time.

Those transparent figures obviously did not expect that another person would fly up, and the attacks that exploded in the air were half a beat slow.

With the help of Iai, Huangfu Wen Ning flew up and slashed directly. There was no doubt that these slashes had no effect, but they allowed her to fall at a faster speed.

The explosive attack, which was already half a beat slow, exploded right beside her, as if it was chasing Huangfu Wenning's shadow and couldn't even touch her.

Huangfu Wen Ning landed steadily and grasped the hilt of the knife again. The cooperation with Zhao Xin just now undoubtedly bought her some more time, but also made her aware of these existing "defects".

"They obviously didn't select targets from a range when they attacked, and they didn't even notice me in the middle..."

Huangfu Wen Ning's words made Zhao Xin in the voice channel react immediately and continued.

"If the attack range is not limited, then it means that their target selection is actually based on the so-called line of sight!"

It’s just that because its body is completely transparent, no one present can tell where the focus of its vision is!

Combined with the fact that it stops moving forward after every attack, it's not hard to tell that this thing's attacks and actions are completely disconnected.

This mechanical way of moving reminded everyone of the mechanical life forms in the ancient technology of the desert.

"One more time, let's confirm it again!"

"it is good!"

Huangfu Wenning took a deep breath, and his right hand holding the hilt of the knife gradually relaxed, waiting for Zhao Xin to glide past again.

If it is true as they guessed, then these so-called walls are likely to be controlled.

The controllers of these gadgets have limited vision, so they were unable to notice the two people's whereabouts for a while, which explains what happened before.

If we can determine the enemy's position by following the possible line of sight, maybe...

But all these are just guesses. With less than two minutes left, Huangfu Wenning needs to confirm it again!

"Please don't let me find you..."

Looking at Zhao Xin's figure rushing over again, Huangfu Wenning sneered and tightened the hilt of the knife in his hand, deliberately slowing down a beat before drawing the knife.

Chapter 82 Suspicion

This time, before Huangfu Wenning could break out of the encirclement, the sound of air explosions continued to be heard above these transparent bodies.

At first glance, Huangfu Wen Ning, who was about to rush out directly, actually turned his hand and swung upwards, then fell down directly in a spin.

"Sure enough! Unless these things have ridiculously high self-discipline, such an attack must be led by others!"

The moment Huangfu Wen Ning landed on the ground, he confirmed his judgment that the attacks of these transparent beings must be controlled by others.

Those attacks that exploded directly on the top were not locked attacks at all, but were completely based on predicted angles.

Since Huangfu Wen Ning jumped up before but did not attack, her prediction extending to the second time was enough for her to confirm this.

But the problem of line of sight cannot be judged yet, it could be from all directions, and there is even precedent for extremely long-distance control.

"Xiao Xin, pay attention to your surroundings and see if there are any hidden units!"

Huangfu Wenning did not jump up again after she landed on the ground. She knew that she would probably not have another chance to jump out.

Both operations undoubtedly bought teammates a lot of time. When the three minutes were about to pass, Mang's skills were finally ready.

The pale flames immediately attached themselves to everyone's bodies, and the five people who had been squeezed to the point where there was almost no space left rushed out immediately.

The transparent body was completely squeezed together at this moment, and a huge transparent vortex suddenly appeared where the stars were originally located. The terrible suction force twisted everything around it together.

The force like a black hole tore apart everything visible to the naked eye, so that those who had just escaped desperately stabbed their weapons into the ground. Even the marginal force seemed to tear them apart.

"hold onto!!"

Zhao Manying clenched her teeth and once again unfolded the halo-like field to cover everyone, trying to increase their resistance to abnormal states as much as possible.

The light seemed to be swallowed up, and bursts of shrill wails seemed to come from the center of the vortex.

The transparent spherical vortex only appeared for a few seconds, and only a huge spherical pit remained on the ground.

Until the suction disappeared, everyone turned their heads at the same time, looking at the place where the vortex disappeared with lingering fear.

"it's over?"

"It's over...right, is everyone okay? Oh, by the way, Mang, Mang, wake up, are you okay?"

Huangfu Wen Ning then rolled down from the tree. When she rushed out from the middle, she did not forget to bring Mang out with her.

After releasing those pale flames just now, Mang fell down as if he had lost consciousness, and the beast state on his body was gradually disappearing.

Fortunately, Huangfu Wenning took a careful look and did not forget the mang in it, otherwise there would be nothing left now.

"How is it? Something went wrong?"

Zhao Manying also hurried over, and seeing Mang who was now unconscious, she quickly called Anjie, whose legs were weak, over.

Angel, who had just been clinging to the tree trunk tightly, came over tremblingly. Although she was still a little scared, she still raised her staff and cast healing and purification spells.

"It seems to have no effect. I have used the blessing skill..."

Anjie looked at Mang in a daze. She had already used her more powerful spells, but the other party still had no reaction.

Her first reaction was naturally that Mang was not injured. Zhao Manying and Huangfu Wenning beside her also thought so. The three of them looked at each other, and a reconnaissance technique was cast on Mang.

"My health has returned, but my mana hasn't yet. This abnormal state with a question mark should be the key..."

Anjie couldn't help but frown. As a professional player, she basically gave the highest priority to skills like purification, but it still had no effect on Mang.

Either this "?" state is not a harmful state, or the priority of this thing is capped by the system default and it is impossible to remove it.

Along with the whistling sound of the jet, Zhao Xin returned to the crowd. She wiped the stains on her face, took out the potion from the inventory and drank it down with one gulp.

Seeing her like this, Zhao Manying did not urge her sister. After all, if Zhao Xin discovered the existence of the enemy, she would not be able to drink water so leisurely.

"I have already dug deep into the ground, and there is nothing..."

Zhao Xin wiped the corners of his mouth, finally catching his breath, and nodded to the three of them.

She didn't find anything special around her, and even flew around the ground several times, constantly releasing reconnaissance skills to search for possible enemies.

But even at this intensity, no human figure was found. The person who was secretly attacking everyone was most likely even further away.

"It's okay, let's rest for a while. If we're this far away, we'll have time to react. Ye Zi will be here soon."

Zhao Manying patted her sister's shoulder. After learning that there were indeed no enemies around, her tense face finally relaxed.

I had finally managed to avoid the squeezing of those "air walls". If there was an invisible enemy attacking me in secret, I didn't know how long I would have to live in fear.

"Hey, Manying, don't you think this is a bit strange?"

At this time, Huangfu Wenning was clearly confused.

She motioned Xiao Xin to rest nearby, and asked Xiao Yan to summon the Shikigami again to keep on guard, and pulled Mang to rest under a huge tree nearby.

"How to say."

Zhao Manying was a little confused by Huangfu Wen Ning for a moment. After hiding the mango under the tree, he stood up and walked to the side with Huangfu Wen Ning.

In order to prevent Mang from pretending to be unconscious, they even used the team channel to communicate.

"Look, this monster appeared without any warning, and its attack method just now was also quite unusual. Fortunately, Mang was able to take us out at this time..."

Huangfu Wen Ning's vigilance was not without reason. Since entering the forest, he had encountered many monsters that were not on the chart, and the one he encountered this time was extremely dangerous.

Although Ye Qing did not have time to provide support in the team channel, he was unable to find the corresponding monster at the first time. Could it be the "hidden BOSS" that Mang had attracted?

"I understand what you mean, but without evidence... we should just stay alert. If we really misunderstood, wouldn't that disappoint others?"

Zhao Manying's words were well-founded. She took into account the NPC's favorability and thought about Mang's timid look when he mentioned Ye Qing. It was not difficult to guess that Mang was in awe of Ye Qing.

Both of them knew the general background. Mang's special condition was like an unstable bomb. If they were too prepared for her, it was inevitable that the bomb would spark.

"This is easy to handle. I'll be in charge of monitoring her. If she has nothing to do with it, that's the best. If she does, then I'll have to contact Ye Zi."

Huangfu Wenning nodded, and walked back to Mang side by side with Zhao Manying, having already made up his mind.

Everyone's goal is to get to the Orc Highlands, but if they are constantly tripped up along the way, their progress may be even slower than that of the main force.

------------

Turning her attention back to Ye Qing, the reason why she didn't come back in time was because she was already outside resting.

Due to the forced journey back and forth, Ye Qing was physically and mentally exhausted. Coupled with the battle with the dragon-shaped Chimera, the game cabin had already sounded the alarm.
