"I see. No wonder you, squire, have such powerful martial arts even though you don't have the Eye of God!" Fischl put away her weapon, crossed her fair arms over her upper abdomen, which was tightly wrapped in black mesh stockings, and said with understanding as she slightly lifted her chest.
"Miss, this is probably because Lord Li Qiuzhi has great talent and can gain more insights from defeating his opponents!" Night Crow Oz reminded helplessly.
In its understanding, what Li Qiuzhi said meant something similar to the motivational statement "Every time I defeat an opponent, I can see a stronger self."
"Hehe~ As the most reliable attendant of this princess, isn't it natural for you to have a great talent?"
Fischl raised her face, and the golden hair on her forehead, covered by a black eye mask, shook slightly.
[Fischl has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 150 points of favorable impression. The current favorable impression level is Lv.8 (310/800)]
As if because she felt the trust of the reliable servant in telling her the secret, Fischl's favorability towards him increased a little.
"Um, do we need to clean up these slimes?"
Irene pointed at the fire slime that was leaning against the flames of the campfire and showing signs of becoming active again.
"Look at the rain outside. We probably won't be able to go back for a while. Why don't we use some stones to make a circle to trap them, and then put a pot on top to cook something to eat? Anyway, everyone is almost hungry now!"
In fact, Li Qiuzhi recalled that after seeing them using fire slime to cook food in the Hillil people’s camp before, he became interested in this behavior for a while.
"That's no problem, but I suggest you simply block the hole to prevent any more monsters from breaking in!"
Oz, the Night Crow, flapped his wings and thought for a while and said.
This is not a difficult task. After all, the entrance of the cave looks to be only about one meter wide and less than two meters high.
Use a blunt shovel to dig some soil and pile it up half a meter high. Then use branches to cover and camouflage it. It won't take much time.
Just when everyone was about to take action, a strange and sinister laugh suddenly came from outside.
"Hehe, that stupid dragon thought it could get rid of us just by letting it rain. It's just stalling for time!"
Another voice continued:
"However, this Fire Mage was drenched by the rain and his shield was broken, and he passed out. He is really causing trouble. Let's wait here for him to wake up before chasing that stupid dragon!"
Looks like an Abyss Mage?
When Li Qiuzhi and the others heard this inhuman sound, they immediately thought of those strange guys.
Instead, Irene was a little confused. Just as she was about to ask a question, Fischl quickly covered her mouth.
Irene widened her eyes in a bit of confusion, and Li Qiuzhi made a hushing gesture to her. They were at the end of the cave, some distance from the entrance, so the abyss mages had not discovered them yet.
If a sound is made, it can be easily transmitted, just like what they say at the entrance of the cave can be heard clearly by them.
Judging from their words, they seem to have some intentions towards the Wind Dragon.
Li Qiuzhi, who had foresight, of course knew that the Abyss Cult really wanted to control the Wind Dragon to help them destroy the Kingdom of the Seven Gods.
Unexpectedly, they started planning shortly after the Wind Dragon awakened.
"Hehe, there seems to be a fire in here, is there a human hiding here?"
The Abyss Mage's subsequent words startled everyone a little. They did not extinguish the flame on the small bonfire in time, so it was seen without surprise.
"Maybe they are the Qiuqiu people. They just happened to ask them to make some food to honor us, hehe."
An Abyss Mage said with a sly grin.
"Anyway, let's go in and take a look. If it's a human, we'll tie him up and throw him to that stupid dragon as food. By killing the human that we have been protecting with our own hands, its last bit of persistence will be tarnished, and it will definitely not be able to resist our control anymore, hehe!"
Another Abyss Mage said sinisterly.
Li Qiuzhi frowned deeply when he heard what they said. He didn't expect that these two abyss mages would come up with such a cunning plan.
Looking at the impending danger, Li Qiuzhi winked at several people.
He then activated his skill to enter "stealth" state and prepared to see if he could repeat the sneak attack he had carried out against the Abyss Mage in the secret realm last time.
He just heard that the shield of a fire mage among them was broken, so this seemed to have a good chance.
Kill as many as you can first!
The cave tunnel of several dozen meters was not long. Li Qiuzhi soon saw the Abyss Mages and others in the middle. He seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, and his eyes lit up.
Thanks to "Almighty Student" for the 1500-coin reward!
Chapter 106 Trapped in Water
There were three Abyss Mages that appeared in Li Qiuzhi's field of vision. One was a Water Abyss Mage, floating in front with an elemental shield on, and there was an Ice Mage following behind.
It grabbed the foot of an unconscious Fire Abyss Mage and dragged it across the ground.
Should we say it is worthy of being a monster? Even though it has intelligence, it is still relatively cold in terms of emotions. Didn’t you see that the mask of the Fire Abyss Mage is about to be knocked off!
Li Qiuzhi complained silently.
What surprised Li Qiuzhi was that this Ice Abyss Mage did not activate the elemental shield, perhaps because he was with his companions.
It is highly likely that its elemental shield cannot cover two Abyss Mages.
This gave him an opportunity. The fire mage seemed to have been knocked unconscious by the heavy rain brought by the wind dragon, whose shield was broken. He only needed to make a sneak attack on the ice abyss mage.
Then it's three against one, no, with Oz it's four against one, so the advantage is on our side!
The Abyss Mages were getting closer and closer inside, and he didn't have much time to think.
Looking at their current appearance of not being vigilant enough, Li Qiuzhi stayed there without moving, slowly waiting for the Abyss Mages to approach.
He held the edgeless sword tightly in his hand, held his breath, and watched the elemental shield water abyss mage pass by less than half a meter away from him.
Next came the Ice Abyss Mage who was dragging the unconscious Fire Mage.
Li Qiu tried his best to move his mind, and with the help of his full-level swordsmanship skills, he mobilized all the strength in his body into his hands. The next second, the sword came out silently, and the cold silver light seemed to break through space.
Instantly, it pierced the Ice Abyss Mage's head from the side.
The Fire Abyss Mage's feet broke away from its hands and hit the ground with a slight dull collision sound. The Ice Abyss Mage's body trembled twice, and he wanted to look back but suddenly fell to the ground powerlessly.
[Defeat powerful enemies and gain 1132 experience points. 】
Looking at the defeat prompt that popped up on the character panel, Li Qiuzhi's eyelids jumped. If it wasn't a sneak attack, it would be very troublesome to defeat it.
After all, he is an Abyss Mage worth more than a thousand experience points.
He might not even be able to break the shield. He only had one Tempering Rocket left and no more Elemental Potions.
Why do I suddenly feel a little unlucky today?
"who!"
The assassination of the Ice Abyss Mage made a lot of noise, and was easily discovered by the Water Abyss Mage who was nearby. He turned around and looked at the dead Ice Mage, and said in an angry tone:
"You bastard human! I'm going to tear you to pieces!!"
It looked at the reappearing Li Qiuzhi and was very angry, not because of the death of its companion.
Instead, he felt that as an elite monster of the Abyss Cult that was noticed by His Royal Highness the Prince and ordered out to carry out a mission, he actually didn't notice that a human was so close to him.
If it also doesn't have its elemental shield activated for some reason.
Wouldn’t that mean he would be like the idiot Ice Mage, who was suddenly killed by humans?
Li Qiuzhi didn't have time to finish off the already unconscious Fire Abyss Mage and immediately retreated two steps. He knew that no matter how powerful his swordsmanship was, it would be in vain if he didn't break the Abyss Mage's water elemental shield.
"go to hell!"
The Water Abyss Mage waved his staff, and a ball of water slowly condensed in front of him, then shot towards him with a "pop" sound.
This speed was still within Li Qiuzhi's reaction range, and he easily dodged it with his agility.
The water ball hit where he had been standing, and it spread out in a pool of water, seeping into the ground.
Seeing this situation, the Water Abyss Mage seemed even more annoyed and quickly threw balls of water at Li Qiuzhi, but he had no intention of confronting it head-on.
He is waiting, stalling for time!
"Night Appears!"
A night crow with purple lightning flashing all over its body attacked the Abyss Mage, and bolts of lightning struck it.
The water element on the elemental shield began to react with the lightning element and was rapidly consumed.
Unfortunately, Fischl's elemental burst did not last long, and the elemental energy was soon consumed.
Night Crow passed through the water mage and then Fischl was released from her fusion state with Oz and appeared next to Li Qiuzhi.
"Oh, what a headache this elemental shield is!" said Night Crow Oz in a troubled tone.
Seeing Fischl and Night Crow suddenly appear, the Water Abyss Mage did not panic, but instead said with a sly smile:
"I knew that you humans are very cunning. You dare to attack us when you don't even have the power of elements. You must have other companions with you!
"You want to repeat your old trick and assassinate me too? You are too naive. Besides, how do you know that I am not playing along with you? Hehehe!"
"what?"
Fischl showed a slightly surprised expression on her fair face.
Li Qiuzhi looked at the very proud Water Abyss Mage, and suddenly thought of the water ball that it had been attacking but never hit.
Startled, he quickly placed his hands on Fischl's fair arms. Feeling the soft touch, he tried to push her away and said:
"Watch your step!"
"Hehe, it's too late!" The Water Abyss Mage had already prepared a magic spell in secret, and said with a smug grin, "Drowned in the water!"
The magic light of the staff flashed, and the water that had seeped into the ground through the water ball attack gathered and turned into a huge water-colored mouth that suddenly rose up and swallowed the two of them together.
This astonishing change happened so fast that it was difficult to react. When they came to their senses, they were already in the water!
"Miss, His Excellency Li Qiuzhi!"
Night Crow Oz exclaimed as he looked at the water ball that almost occupied the entire cave tunnel.
Because it was flying and had some distance from the ground, it was lucky enough to avoid being swallowed by the water ball. It looked at the two people submerged in the water ball and quickly figured it out.
It couldn't just rush in to rescue the two people, otherwise it would most likely be trapped.
The only way to prevent the two from suffocating in the water is to defeat the Water Abyss Mage and make the magic water ball lose its source of power!
“Hehe, you foolish human! This wizard has been praised by His Royal Highness the Prince. Even he said that I am cunning enough, so he ordered me to lead the team to carry out the mission of controlling the Wind Dragon!
"You dare to show off your little tricks in front of this mage?!"
The Water Abyss Mage became more and more excited as he spoke, and it was obvious that he had thought that this mere human trick had actually succeeded in killing one of his companions.
Just as it was about to continue casting magic to shrink the water ball and speed up the suffocation of the two humans, suddenly its water element shield shook and a flash of lightning appeared.
"Asshole! You're just a black-haired bird!" The Water Abyss Mage fired water balls at Oz who kept spitting out thunder magic bullets.
The torpedo bomb and the water ball collided midway and canceled each other out.
"Let the young lady go!"
The Night Crow Oz flapped his wings and attacked the water mage.
The Water Abyss Mage felt that the water ball he was using to resist was being consumed very quickly. If he continued, he would really be exhausted by the black-haired bird.
Think of this.
It suddenly disappeared from its original position and used magic to flash out of the cave. It didn't mean to escape. After all, if it went too far away, it would not be able to maintain the water ball that trapped the two humans.
Unlike the Fire Abyss Mage who needs to hide from the rain, as a Water Abyss Mage, it can even reduce the consumption of magic in an environment with abundant water elements such as a storm.
If the Ice Mage hadn't died, then such heavy rain would be the best auxiliary combat environment for him, and he could freeze the enemy with just one blow.
Oz discovered that the Abyss Wizard appeared outside the cave, and quickly flapped his wings to chase after him.
Being in the water, Li Qiuzhi felt every piece of his skin was icy cold. Fortunately, he lived in the countryside and there was a river in the village. Every summer he would play in the water with his friends.
Of course, there are usually adults in the village watching over them, and children are not allowed to play by the river alone.
In short, he learned to swim when he was very young, so diving and holding his breath were naturally no problem for him. Therefore, he was not too panicked when he was trapped in the water by the Abyss Mage.
Fischl was in front of him, her long golden hair floating in the water as if it had lost gravity, and the hem of her purple and black skirt was also lifted up by the buoyancy.
The wet black stockings clung to the soft legs, and the snow-white skin was faintly visible.
Her right eye, which was not covered by the blindfold, looked at Li Qiuzhi. She blinked, puffed up her cheeks slightly, and a bubble leaked out of her closed lips from time to time.
He shook his head to indicate that he had no problem.
That’s right. After all, being an adventurer is not qualified if you can’t swim.
