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

"Yes, underground."

underground?

Since we heard it inside the house, does this house have a basement? Or is there something buried underground?

Edmund answered the puzzled looks of several people with his actions. This was thanks to Ye Qing's high level of trust. Otherwise, with Edmund's cowardly character, he would probably not do anything under such fear.

He lifted the carpet, and a cellar door with a hidden pull ring appeared in front of them. Above the cellar door, there was a strange empty slot that seemed to correspond to the shape of a palm.

"Right, right below, I leave it to you!"

It seemed that uncovering the carpet made Edmund extremely frightened. He shrank back onto the sofa again. Although it was still summer in the game, this guy covered himself tightly.

"So based on the combined intelligence, there's probably an elite Undead monster or a boss down there?"

After Edmund fell asleep, the three of them stayed in the living room, and Yue Liang was the first to put forward his idea.

Since Fili didn't have the undead perception skill after choosing a profession, she couldn't be sure what was in the cellar and could only shake her head apologetically.

"No... If it's a boss or something like that, the mission I've received right now should be to eliminate the boss. At this stage, I'm probably just collecting information. The ones below are most likely just undead that pose little threat."

Ye Qing shook her head. She was not a person who could only follow the instructions. Since there had been changes, she had to make judgments based on the current situation.

If it is a task of killing a boss, there will usually be some kind of hint. Huanmeng rarely does tasks that are obviously tricky, such as a task that requires exploration but actually means fighting a boss.

However, the mission requires finding out the truth behind the barren mountain incident, which is probably just a beginning.

"It seems that we don't have many means to deal with the undead right now. I don't have any blessed weapons at the moment. Has Sister Jasmine clicked on the weapon blessing?"

"Yes, but it basically only adds a little damage to the undead, but it can cause effective damage."

Jasmine next to him also released a weapon blessing to Ye Qing on the spot. Seeing the buff's beneficial effect, Ye Qing nodded.

Now that we have the means to deal with the undead, the next step will probably be to go down to the cellar.

Unfortunately, the second mission in the previous life was supposed to be to escort Edmund to the mine, but now it doesn’t seem to have much reference value. We can only wait and see what happens next.

This is the best I can do for now, but unfortunately I don't have enough conditions to prepare anything else. If I were to level up normally, others might have already formed a team to come to the barren mountain in the time it took.

What's more, Ye Qing is absolutely confident in her own operation. Even if the black shadow appears again, she can kill it again.

"Who will go down with me later? Someone has to stay up there, Kai or Sister Jasmine?"

Ye Qing looked at the two of them, waiting for their reply.

In fact, Ye Qing is very easy to cooperate with no matter who it is. A reliable front row and a key assistant are both great helps to Ye Qing now.

"Let me do it. I may not be able to protect Edmund if I stay behind. I don't have many output skills, most of which are auxiliary skills. There may be undead monsters below, so you need a weapon blessing."

Chapter 11 Priests also need close combat

At times like this, Fili was quite opinionated.

"Can Edmund be handed over to you, then, Kay?"

Ye Qing looked at Yue Liang calmly. She did not cover herself with a hood at this moment, so her calm eyes made Yue Liang and Feili trust her even more.

This isn't the kind of person who would sell out his teammates just to loot equipment.

Yue Liang himself was not very clear why he came to this conclusion.

In similar ARPG games or MMO games, there are countless mechanisms for exploding equipment by killing people in the wild. In the history of games that have been developed by humans for so many years, there are countless people who maliciously kill their teammates.

But along the way, Yue Liang felt that Ye Qing was not that kind of person. Even a player as strong as Ye Qing was willing to share such a rare mission experience with them, and now he was even more willing to put the key NPC in their hands.

If she wanted to do something, she would have done it a long time ago.

"Okay, I'll do my best."

Yue Liang stretched out his hand, which made Ye Qing stunned, but he also stretched out his hand and shook hands with him firmly.

This made Fili beside her burst out laughing, which eased the serious atmosphere. Ye Qing also smiled slightly. After actually getting along with them, she found that Yue Liang and Fili were quite easy to get along with.

Although the two sides have fought many times in the past

The two pieces of equipment obtained from the stone giant just now have now been equipped by Yue Liang. They are almost all equipment prepared for the front-line tanks, so Fili naturally would not keep any of them.

Well-equipped

Golem's Belt

Attributes:

Physical strength +3

Stone Giant's Necklace

Attributes:

Physical strength +2

Strength +2

Although it has no special skills, it is already quite reliable as a sophisticated equipment that increases attributes.

"I'll leave it to you up there. Let's go down and take a look."

Ye Qing opened the door of the cellar and jumped down.

Somewhat to Ye Qing's surprise, there was no cellar under the door, but a deep, endless passage that stretched forward.

The whistling sound of wind came from the depths of the passage, sounding like the wailing of evil spirits, but Ye Qing knew very well that it was not so simple to make Edmund become like that.

There is a difference between the sound of the wind and the howling of evil spirits, especially Ye Qing could see that there was an unknown debuff on Edmund.

"Hey, why is it so shallow? Isn't it a cellar?"

Fili, who followed behind, looked at the deep passage with some surprise. She had not expected that there was such a passage under the house.

However, Ye Qing was able to reconcile her past memories to some extent. If the passage under this house was connected to the abandoned mine in the barren mountain, then she had an idea of ​​what she would see next.

"Let's go. Sister Jasmine, please keep about three steps away from me."

Ye Qing said this and took the lead and walked ahead.

After coming down, there was no Yue Liang to continue to help them attract hatred, so Ye Qing naturally had to do his best to protect Fili behind him.

Dying in a non-peaceful area will deduct experience points, and even more will be deducted when your level is low. It is possible that you will drop one or two levels after one death.

"Three steps? Is there a rule for this?"

Fili was a little curious. Due to the virtual reality nature of the divine world, they could basically do everything close to reality, but it was accurate to the number of steps...

Ye Qing, who was walking in front, was testing with the sword in his hand, clearing away those suspicious places one by one, and said while looking ahead.

"Within three steps, I can basically deal with any trap or monster with my current reaction ability. If it's farther, this equipment won't be able to do it."

No other operations are required. Ye Qing only needs a momentary reaction and block.

The deeper the passage goes, the more rugged it becomes. The man-made excavated parts seem to decrease, and more of the work is being done in the original mine tunnel.

Just as Ye Qing thought, this passage was connected to the abandoned mine in the barren mountain, and there was still a lot of remaining ore powder or fragments in the passage.

Even deep in the mine, there are residual ores in the rock walls on all sides, which emit bright light under the illumination of Fili's holy light.

However, what really made Fili feel uneasy was the monster that never jumped out. Even if it was a horror game, after such a long period of depression, there should be some scary things.

"Stop, Sister Fili, and prepare to hang a blessing for me."

Just when Feili was about to speak, Ye Qing, who had been walking in silence in front of her, suddenly raised his left fist and signaled her to stop.

"What's wrong... Ugh!"

The moment the words fell, the crisp sound of armor colliding was heard from the end of the passage.

One, no, two?

From the end of the passage, skeletons in tattered armor were slowly walking towards the two of them. They didn't even have complete torsos, but as they filled the passage, it really made Fili's scalp tingle.

"Sister Jasmine, weapon blessing."

Ye Qing also slowly walked towards the group of skeletons, with the long sword in his hand already across his body. His pace kept speeding up until he ran towards the group of skeletons.

Fili behind him had already raised her staff, and a ray of light suddenly lit up on Ye Qing's weapon.

Ye Qing rushed into the pile of bones like a tiger into a flock of sheep.

The long sword with the weapon blessing immediately created a whirlwind in the pile of bones. The slow movements of the skeletons and their broken armor seemed as fragile as paper to Ye Qing.

"It's scattered and annoying!"

He kicked over the skeleton that tried to cross Ye Qing and attack Fili behind him. Ye Qing suddenly spun the sword in his hand and directly smashed the skeleton's head.

No matter how many there are, these things are just small fry.

Killing one of them would at most give you a little experience, not to mention that some of them have no experience at all and are simply resurrected undead creatures.

Ye Qing continued to swing his sword to block the group of skeletons that were trying to advance.

Something is wrong, this amount of experience is not enough...

This is like summoning a creature. There is no experience gained after killing it. Wait, a summon?

After breaking free from those overly fragile skeletons, Ye Qing immediately distanced herself from them. She returned to Fili's side and began to look into the depths of the mine.

"What's wrong? Do you want to retreat?"

"No, Sister Fili, if you use all your strength to block, how long can you hold off these skeletons? I don't know your armor and magic resistance, but the damage caused by these skeletons is basically one to three points. My five points of armor can basically be immune to these damages."

Ye Qing looked at the skeletons that were still moving slowly forward, and spoke hurriedly to Fili behind him.

These skeletons seem to be endless, so there must be a spawning point nearby. We have to find the thing that keeps spawning skeletons.

"...I only have three points of armor, but with the barrier, I should be able to hold out for three minutes. After three minutes, my mana will be reduced to zero, and I will probably have to run away."

Fili also roughly estimated her mana and equipment. Although she couldn't calculate as detailed as Ye Qing, with the support of the priest's barrier skills, low-level undead creatures could not cause damage before the priest's mana returned to zero.

If you want to save time, then these three minutes are the most precious time.

"Okay, Sister Fili, I'll be back in three minutes."

Ye Qing slowly lowered her body until the skeletons were closer to Fili, and a light blue light suddenly appeared above her legs.

Swift steps, start!

The 100% increase in movement speed within three seconds is enough for Ye Qing to cross the vast sea of ​​skeletons.

Her extremely strong reaction speed allowed her to rush out from the gaps between the skeletons almost accurately and reach the position behind the sea of ​​skeletons.

"It's time to give it a try. We can't just let her show off all by herself!"

Fili raised her staff with a smile, and a weapon blessing fell on her staff.

The next moment, the skeleton that approached first was smashed to pieces by the white staff.

Who said priests can't fight in close combat?

Facing this group of things, Fili has plenty of skills to defeat them!

After passing those skeletons, Ye Qing came to the depths of the mine tunnel, but there were two forks in the road.

"The fork in the road is fine, but why don't you give me something new to do?"

The corners of Ye Qing's mouth rose slightly. She was almost used to having to choose between two options at such critical moments.

After briefly observing the two passages, he chose the left passage and rushed through.

Sure enough, after Ye Qing went deep enough, he saw skeletons surging under the ground.

The figure controlling these skeletons was standing in front of Ye Qing. The old man in robes looked at Ye Qing in surprise. He was casting a spell and could not interrupt the chanting.

Swift steps, start again!

Ye Qing stepped on the skulls that had just appeared, and the whole person seemed to be flying. In an instant, he passed the old man, and the long sword in his hand had already stabbed silently towards the old man's back.

However, the sword blade did not penetrate smoothly. Only a crisp collision sound was heard, and Ye Qing's sword blade was directly bounced away by an invisible barrier.

Spell shield? Or rune barrier?

Ye Qing was almost certain that the old man in front of him was most likely a small boss of the necromancer type, who was able to cast intermediate-level defensive spells, which were rare even in primary dungeons.

Without any hesitation, Ye Qing pushed his hands hard on the ground the moment he landed, and the whole person flew out again like a cannonball, and the sword in his hand danced a sword flower in the air.

From bottom to top, it drew a circle around the old man's throat.

This time, a noticeable crack appeared in the defensive barrier around the old man.
