Original God: I can earn experience points

If this continued, the ice spikes orbiting the Abyss Mage would expand to a certain range in a few seconds. Li Qiuzhi and Fischl could retreat and avoid them at both ends of the passage.

But Bennett was bound to be injured if he was surrounded and beaten by the hillbillies.

Under normal circumstances, Li Qiuzhi, who was unable to guide the elemental force, would definitely find it difficult to break through. Fortunately, he still had enough fire arrows, and it was not difficult for him to hit the shield of the Abyss Mage with his extraordinary archery skills.

Li Qiuzhi aimed at the brief gap between the orbiting ice spikes, and the next moment the arrow that activated the fire element hit the shield of the Abyss Mage.

The sudden fusion reaction caused the shield to shake, which scared the Abyss Mage and caused the rotating ice spikes to stop for a moment, and then it continued to dance and cast spells.

"You're so lucky, you bastard human, but you won't stand a chance!"

As he spoke, the icicles began to spin faster.

For example, Fischl had successfully captured the gaps between the ice edges before, but she was unable to shoot the arrow condensed with lightning elements at the Abyss Mage.

This is mainly because the arrow has a limited speed, and when it reaches the gap, it is blocked by ice spikes.

Now that it was spinning faster, it was even more difficult to break through. Even the lightning magic bullets that Oz continued to shoot were all blocked.

However, the Abyss Mage's doing this is not without cost, which is that the speed at which the ice spikes expand has also slowed down.

"Get out of my way!"

After Bennett fought with two Hillichul thugs for a long time, the elemental energy was finally full, and an elemental burst repelled the Hillichul people.

The inspiring field of "Wonderful Journey" appeared on the ground, and Bennett who was standing in it immediately became much more brave. He was previously suppressed by a group of monsters, but now he was suppressing a group of monsters alone!

Fischl and Oz did not waste their time on the Ice Abyss Mage, and directly joined Bennett's battlefield to deal with these Hilichurls first.

Li Qiuzhi glanced at the battlefield where the situation changed instantly, and once again placed the quenched fire arrow on the bowstring.

The constantly rotating ice spikes are indeed difficult to deal with, but they have little effect on Li Qiuzhi's incredibly silent and fast archery skills.

Because before, Bennett and Fischl had already consumed a lot of the Ice Abyss Mage's elemental shield.

So when the second quenching rocket stimulated the fire element and triggered a melting reaction, the ice element shield on the Abyss Mage broke directly.

It also fell from mid-air, shaking its head as the magic backlash caused it to fall into dizziness.

The ice spikes orbiting the Abyss Mage also turned into ice elements and dissipated.

[Defeat powerful enemies and gain 902 experience points. 】

After the Ice Abyss Mage fell into a dizzy state, he had basically no ability to resist, and the experience points were successfully obtained.

At this time, the battlefield between Fischl and Bennett was filled with the elements of lightning and fire. The Hillichul thugs were blown back in waves, and the small Hillichul people had been blown away to who knows where.

Li Qiuzhi saw that there seemed to be a chance to finish off the two Hilichurl thugs, so he joined Bennett and the others. Those were experience points that should not be wasted.

He joined the battle, and shot armor-piercing arrows into the bodies of the Hillock thugs. Their movements became slower and slower, and their arms could no longer lift their axes.

Finally, he fell down after staggering for a long time.

Experience points +485

Experience points +462

".Wow, what a fierce battle!" Bennett wiped the sweat from his forehead with the back of his hand and swung the dark steel sword. It turned into a point of light and dissipated and was taken back into the Eye of God.

"You are worthy of being the warriors of the Pure Land of Dark Night. I have seen your bravery and you deserve my praise!"

Fischl placed her hands, which were covered in thin black silk gloves, on her waist, and raised her fair chin slightly to reveal a proud smile.

"Thank you for your hard work, everyone." Oz said after confirming that there were no monsters still standing.

"Then let's interrogate this guy!"

Li Qiuzhi felt his brain was a little tired. He rubbed his head and shifted his gaze to the Ice Abyss Mage who was still dizzy.

Everyone had agreed at the beginning to keep it as much as possible. After all, they still needed to learn from the Abyss Mage the truth about why they wanted to attract people into this secret realm.

When the Ice Abyss Mage woke up, he found three hateful humans surrounding him with their arms folded. He clenched his fists and then feared shamelessly.

"Haha. What can I do for you, the strong ones among the human race?"

The Ice Abyss Mage forced a smile with a dry and hoarse voice that sounded like a synthesized monster.

Although it is loyal to the abyss, as a member of the intelligent creatures, it is its instinct to seek benefits and avoid harm. Seeing that these humans obviously still need it, temporarily compromising is the only option.

Chapter 56: Secrets of the Wreckage

"Tell me, what is your purpose in attracting adventurers into the secret realm?"

Li Qiuzhi looked down at the Ice Abyss Mage and questioned.

"You really know!"

The Ice Abyss Mage felt that this was exactly as he expected, but at the same time he was a little confused as to why these humans knew this?

Moreover, this is the second level of the secret realm. How did they manage to explore here in such a short time? !

“Stop talking nonsense and answer the questions of this princess’ attendant!” Fischl clenched her white hands, as if she was about to hit someone.

“Don’t fight, don’t fight!” The Ice Abyss Mage begged for mercy, and then couldn’t help but said with a sly smile, “Hehe, what’s the use of telling you? When so many of you humans stepped in, our goal had already been achieved!”

"Oh?" Oz, the Night Crow, made a puzzled sound.

Li Qiuzhi and the other two frowned when they heard what it said, obviously worried.

The Ice Abyss Mage was very satisfied with the reactions of the humans in front of him, and continued:

"Originally, there was no portal in this secret realm. It was our great apostle who used his powerful strength to create a space crack leading to the interior of the secret realm!"

Could it be that the Apostle is the Apostle of the Abyss? Li Qiuzhi pondered for a moment.

He vaguely remembered that the Abyss Cult was indeed very accomplished in spatial capabilities, and even had its own complete teleportation network, allowing them to go wherever they wanted, which was much more powerful than a teleportation anchor point.

"Of course the Apostle was busy with his work, so he gave us the task and left. Humph, otherwise you would all be buried here if he just moved his finger!"

The Ice Abyss Mage danced with joy and seemed very proud when talking about the Apostle.

"oops!"

Fischl raised her right foot, which was wearing high-heeled boots. The black pantyhose clung to her legs, wrapping her bent knees to make them more defined and rounded.

Before she kicked down, the Ice Abyss Mage covered his head and screamed.

"Stop flattering your Apostle and continue to tell us what you know!"

Li Qiuzhi thought for a moment and continued.

The Ice Abyss Mage nodded, then smiled wickedly and said:

".Hehehe, the special thing about this secret realm is that there is a remnant of a demon god sleeping here. It hated humans when it was alive, and the resentment it left behind after its death is the same.

“Generally speaking, there wouldn’t be any problem even if one or two adventurers accidentally entered this secret realm.

"But when a large number of humans enter the secret realm, it will definitely alarm it. I believe that the remains of the demon god are already in the process of awakening. Even if you know this news, it will be useless. How about it, aren't you scared, haha!"

Bennett touched his pale golden hair in confusion and asked:

"The remains of a demon god? What is that?"

Even as an experienced adventurer, he had rarely heard of anything related to the devil.

"Legend has it that demons are very powerful beings. Even if they pass away, they will probably leave something behind. That should be the remains of a demon."

Fischl had read relevant travel notes and rumors, so he had some knowledge of it.

"Well, it's a very remarkable thing." Oz also said as he flapped his wings of night.

"It looks like there is indeed trouble. Are you from the Abyss Cult awakening the remains of the Demon God in order to let it leave the secret realm and cause some degree of crisis to Mondstadt?"

Li Qiuzhi asked thoughtfully.

The Abyss Cult is hostile to the civilization of the continent of Teyvat and covets all living things on earth. It only wants to subvert the world ruled by the Seven Rulings of the Midgard, so it is not difficult to understand why they take such actions.

"Oh? Human, it seems you are very smart, that's right!" The Ice Abyss Mage admitted generously.

"What? Then Mondstadt will be in danger!"

Bennett's eyes widened, obviously shocked by the huge conspiracy of the Abyss Cult.

“Does Oz have any solution?” Fischl looked at the ground, his fair face full of worry.

".Well, Miss, this is a secret place. Even if the remains of the demon god awaken and want to escape, they will have to go through the portal. As long as we close it in advance, there will be no problem."

What Oz said does make sense. As long as the door is closed, no matter how the remains of the demon move, they will be within the secret realm and cannot go out to affect the outside world.

"It's impossible. You can't do it. The secret portal here has been reinforced by the Apostle. It can't be destroyed so easily in a short time."

The Ice Abyss Mage laughed evilly and shook his head. He continued to say mockingly:

“Moreover, there are so many of your adventurers in the secret realm. Do you want to abandon them by closing the portal?

"You humans can't do such a thing. By the time you notify everyone of them to evacuate the secret realm, the remains of the demon god will probably have fully awakened!"

I have to say, what this bastard Abyss Mage said is indeed right.

The remains of the demon that the Apostles of the Abyss believe can pose a threat to Mondstadt must be strong, and it would be very dangerous to let it escape like this.

But even if Li Qiuzhi and the others ran out now to inform the Adventurer's Association of the news, it would take a lot of time to summon the adventurers in the secret realm to evacuate and find a way to destroy the portal.

If you look at it this way, the Abyss Cult's conspiracy was truly successful.

However, there was one thing that the Abyss Mage did not say at all. He deliberately let Li Qiuzhi and the others believe that the remains of the demon god would be very powerful and terrifying after waking up.

But there is no mention of the situation before waking up.

The focus of the demon's wreckage is not the front part but the latter part. The main body of the demon has long passed away, so the wreckage left behind cannot become stronger with time.

That would definitely be a process of wear and tear over a long period of time.

From the time when demons were prevalent to the present day, if nothing unexpected happened, the demons' remains would have long been like a candle in the wind, otherwise there would not be a "awakening" process.

I think its "awakening" is just a last glimmer of light before its final demise!

The Abyss Cult probably wanted to make use of the last bit of value in the Demon God's remains, so they came up with this conspiracy.

If nothing unexpected happens, if we can interrupt the process of the demon's remains' last hurdle and make it perish ahead of time, all problems and crises will be solved.

But these are just speculations, and Li Qiuzhi is not sure.

In order to further confirm his guess, he spoke it out and secretly paid attention to the reaction of the Abyss Mage.

"As expected of you, Mr. Li Qiuzhi. I quite agree with your ideas!"

First of all, it was Oz. He had not thought of this possibility before, and the probability was not small.

"So, as long as we find the remains of the demon god and clean them up in advance, Mondstadt will be safe!"

Bennett said excitedly as his emerald eyes seemed to light up.

“I see. A mere prisoner dares to scare this princess!” Fischl’s confident look reappeared on her fair face, and she glared at the Ice Abyss Mage on the ground.

When Li Qiuzhi expressed his guess, the Abyss Mage fell into silence.

The most important task assigned to them by the Apostle is to stop all adventurers who may approach it before the remains of the demon wake up completely.

Chapter 57 The King's Domain Ahead

Looking at the reaction of the Ice Abyss Mage, Li Qiuzhi knew that his guess might be true.

Otherwise, there would be no need to go through so much trouble to release the remains of a demon. Not only would a space portal be built, but it would also take a long time to design it into a secret realm that would attract adventurers.

Everything is done to stimulate the remnant of the demon god who hates humanity.

They wanted to accelerate its own wear and tear before it was about to perish, so that it could regain some of the power of the former demon god and cause only a negligible impact on the earthly civilization ruled by the seven rulers of the mortal world.

The Ice Abyss Mage had a survival instinct so he had to tell the cult's plan.

But it also wanted the plan to go smoothly, otherwise, even if it had to escape for a while in the end, it would inevitably be held accountable by the Apostles of the Abyss.

And it is this greedy idea of ​​trying to have the best of both worlds that reveals its clues.

The Ice Abyss Mage waved his thin hands repeatedly and said hurriedly:

"Wait. These are just your ignorant and arrogant guesses.

"The remains of the demon god are extremely dangerous. Even the Apostle cannot defeat them. No, they can fight the Apostle on equal terms!"

Li Qiuzhi said with a smile:
