Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

After bidding farewell to the Sky Ghost, the Earth Ghost found a secluded place, sat down cross-legged, and projected his consciousness onto his "avatar" far away in the Human Alliance, the Kingdom of West.

At the same time, in a cold and damp building somewhere in the Kingdom of West, a black and white coral snake woke up.

The coral snake was lying on a circular stone altar. Under the altar, a white-haired, one-eyed girl was kneeling on one knee, as if she had been waiting for a long time.

In other parts of the room, there were many snakes coiled up and sleeping soundly.

The coral snake hissed a few times, stared at the girl for a few seconds, and then spoke.

"Hiss... Hey, Heloise, are you asleep?"

Hearing the sound of the coral snake, the girl's body trembled, and then she slowly raised her head.

"Welcome, Lord Earth Ghost. I have just tested my soul within the spiral of evil spirits..."

Although she said this, the girl couldn't help but yawn as if she had just woken up.

The earth ghost that occupied the body of the silver ring snake sighed secretly. Among the reserve cadres of the Snake Shadow Society, "Black Tiger Butterfly Heloise" was considered to be relatively outstanding. It was a pity that she seemed to have some problems with her brain.

However, even if she had a brain problem, it would not affect her from carrying out this mission. It would be better to say that she made full use of her resources and would not feel sad if she died.

"Hiss...Okay, then are you ready to accept the 'Snake Blood Trial'?"

"I have no way out. Only by passing the 'Snake Blood Trial' can I open the path to the future."

Heloise's answers always gave the Earth Ghost a headache. It took him a little thought to understand that she meant she was prepared.

Then, the earth ghost controlled the silver ring snake and slowly crawled into the spherical container on the altar. Then, the container closed automatically, and a large number of spikes pierced out from the sphere. The spikes were covered with the blood of the sacrificed silver ring snake.

After a few seconds, a small hole automatically opened in the sphere, and fresh snake blood flowed out from the hole and gathered into a bowl-sized pool on the altar.

"Hiss... Heloise, drink the 'Blood of Trial' and begin your trial."

In the corner of the room, another silver ring snake woke up. This was because the earth ghost had changed another snake to control.

Heloise slowly walked to the small pool filled with snake blood and swallowed.

It was not difficult to tell from her slightly blue face that she was having a fierce inner struggle over drinking the raw snake blood.

"My name is Black Tiger Butterfly Heloise..."

"He is the one who will devour the world with the Evil Tiger King's Eye..."

"Give me strength, Evil Tiger King God. The mere 'Snake Blood Trial' will not be able to threaten your divine might in the slightest...!"

After muttering a bunch of meaningless words to herself, Heloise buried her head in the snake blood and swallowed it all in one gulp!

Then, Heloise raised her head with blood all over her face and looked at the earth ghost with a confident expression of "nothing special".

However, she was only handsome for less than three seconds, and then she quickly covered her mouth with both hands, otherwise, the snake blood surging from her stomach would be vomited out of her mouth.

"Hiss... Well done, Heloise."

The Earth Ghost pretended not to notice Heloise's embarrassing scene and continued to give her instructions.

"Next, you only need to kill the 'Trial Target'. The Trial Blood that fuses with you will greatly increase your strength... At that time, your wish will be fulfilled."

Heloise listened attentively and nodded hard, but she didn't have the energy to speak.

Now, as long as she opened her mouth, the snake blood that she had just forced down her throat would be vomited out magnificently.

"Your 'Trial Target' is a young man named 'Banning'. Detailed information is contained in the letter on the altar. Please read it carefully and you can begin your action immediately."

The ground ghost (Golden Ring Snake) coiled on the ground and stood up, looking at Heloise with a gloomy look as she covered her mouth and walked to the altar to take the letter.

To be honest, Digui couldn't associate Heloise with the word "reliable", but it didn't matter anymore.

When Heloise drank the snake blood mixed with the "blood snake", the young man named Banning was already doomed to die.

After a long journey, Jiang Ran did not feel tired. Instead, he felt in excellent condition.

Compared to the days before in Sunny Town when I was worried about running into a Shura field every day, exploring in the wilderness was as free and easy as being in heaven.

After half a day, Jiang Ran had already mastered the "evolved" "Fir Dragon Bow".

After improvement, this bow has a folding function, which greatly improves the convenience and can also catch the enemy by surprise in special circumstances.

With the new attribute "Concentration" of the Hunter skill "Heart of Concentration" (which allows one to see the trajectory of the arrow in advance), Jiang Ran can stably shoot arrows within 100 meters without missing a target, and can achieve a hit rate of over 200% within meters, successfully extending the original -meter effective range to nearly meters.

━━━━━━━━━━

Equipment Name: "Fir Dragon Bow"

Equipment effect:

1. Equipment requirements: Strength 50 and Dexterity 60 or above, otherwise the equipment effect cannot be activated;

2. Equipper attribute gain: Strength +10, Dexterity +30;

3. Equipped by the equipment: penetration effect +30;

4. The wearer can use the skill: "Powerful Arrow";

"Powerful Arrow": Each time you shoot an arrow, you can inject 100 points of magic power into it, increasing the arrow's physical damage by 300 points;

━━━━━━━━━━

With the help of the new skill "Powerful Arrow", even when encountering animals with thick skin and flesh such as wild boars and rhinos, Jiang Ran can steadily destroy their ability to move first, and then find their weaknesses and kill them with one blow.

After half a day, Jiang Ran not only gained hunter career experience (5+210↑ / 1000), but also prepared ingredients for dinner for himself and Xiao Moto.

By the way, after the little motorcycle transformed from an ordinary warhorse into the monster "Iron Hoof Warhorse", its food types are no longer limited to feed beans, wheat, wheat bran and other feeds. It is now very welcome to meat.

Under the moonlight and starry sky, a man and a horse leisurely enjoyed their dinner.

After eating and drinking, Jiang Ran practiced the skill "Shadow Behind" (Proficiency: 10+30↑/110) in the open space. At this time, he accidentally found two wheel marks on the ground.

Jiang Ran leaned over and used his identification ability to confirm, and the result he got was: "The wheel marks of the Snow Deer family's carriage."

[Confession death countdown remaining: 18 days]

On the dirt road leading to the town of Driss, the white carriage of the Snow Deer family was moving forward steadily and slowly.

Two coachmen from the Green Lizard family, one in charge during the day and the other at night, took turns driving, just to arrive at the town of Driss earlier so that Vanessa Snow Deer in the carriage could gain an advantage in forming the maze expedition team.

In the carriage, Vanessa was sitting by the window and sleeping.

Vanessa, who was sleeping, faintly heard the cry of the deer spirit and immediately woke up from her dream. She looked out the window vigilantly and found nothing unusual. Then she looked at the three deer spirits beside her.

She saw that the deer spirits had all woken up and were looking around nervously, which made Vanessa realize that she was not hallucinating.

Since the deer spirit made a cry, it meant that a hostile creature was approaching them.

Vanessa opened the partition window and informed the coachman that danger was approaching. Then, she opened the carriage door, released three deer spirits, and let them run after the carriage. She took out the silver flute and prepared for battle.

·

A few minutes later, loud wolf howls began to sound nearby. Listening to the howling one after another, Vanessa knew that she was surrounded by "them".

"Coachman, drive the carriage to an open and bright place, and then you can hide in the carriage."

Vanessa, who had fought them many times before, did not panic and calmly planned a response strategy.

As for why this noble second lady wanted to protect the two coachmen, it was not because she was kind, but because after the battle, she still needed someone to drive the carriage for her.

In order to respond immediately, Vanessa stepped half of her body out of the carriage door, grabbed the edge of the roof with one hand, then jumped up with all her strength, and flipped over very nimbly to land on the roof of the carriage.

At this moment, on the speeding carriage, Vanessa, dressed in military uniform, was half-kneeling on one knee on the roof.

She held down the brim of her deer antler hat with one hand and held a silver flute with the other, letting her long black hair flutter behind her, and only looking around with a pair of big, bright green eyes.

Soon, the carriage drove into the open field, but at the same time, several dark figures had passed by from the left and right sides of the carriage in the distance, and circled to the front of the carriage to prepare for an attack.

Behind the carriage, there were several other dark shadows following slowly.

Vanessa saw it clearly; she knew the enemy's encirclement was complete. However, it didn't matter. Every time she encountered "them," she always started by being surrounded...

·

Then end by killing them all.

·

The white carriage slowly stopped in the field, and the two coachmen quickly got into the carriage and closed the door tightly.

Three deer spirits were evenly distributed around the carriage, and on the top of the carriage, Vanessa stood elegantly, looking around and playing a melodious melody.

——Deer Spirit Concerto·First Movement·Thorns

As the ethereal sound of the flute sounded, the three deer spirits, which were originally no different from ordinary fawns, suddenly grew into strong reindeer. The most incredible thing was that antler knives comparable to blades grew on the reindeer's thick antlers, which made people's backs cold just by looking at them.

And as if to counter the sound of Vanessa's flute, the enemies surrounding the carriage howled one after another, which sounded like both a demonstration and a final communication before launching an attack.

The night wind was howling, and the sounds of flutes and howls were intertwined, making the darkness before dawn seem extremely strange.

Without any warning, three dark figures flashed out from all sides of the carriage and rushed straight towards the deer spirits who were on high alert.

However, under the command of "Melody", the deer spirits did not rush to fight back, but waited in place until the enemy rushed nearby, and then lowered their heads and charged at them with their antlers!

In a flash, the enemies that pounced on it were unable to avoid the deer spirit's attack, and were pierced through their bodies one after another and hung on the deer's antlers. It was not until this moment that they revealed their true forms in the dim light.

It turned out that the black shadows surrounding the white carriage were a group of giant wolves as big as bulls.

Their limbs are strong and powerful, and their fangs and claws are unstoppable, but their soft abdomen is still their fatal weakness.

The attacker's death on the spot did not dampen the wolves' resolve. On the contrary, a new round of assaults was launched immediately following the failure of the first round. The wolves' strategy was to fully utilize the pioneer's sacrifice to entangle the deer spirits' defenses...

Their real purpose is to directly capture the commander, Vanessa, standing on top of the carriage!

·

Seeing that the deer spirits had no time to shake off the corpses on their antlers and resume fighting, the melody of the song played by Vanessa changed, entering a new chapter without any sense of incongruity.

6.38 - Concerto (Third Watch)

In the darkness of the night, the melodious flute sound suddenly became sharp.

Under the rhythmic melody, the bodies of the three deer spirits changed again.

The huge horns on the deer spirits' heads shrank rapidly, allowing them to break free from the giant wolf's corpse. Then, the deer spirits' hind legs were further strengthened, allowing them to stand up like humans and use their hooves on their front feet as fists to attack the enemy!

The giant wolves that rushed forward in the second round did not expect the deer spirit to have such a change. They were caught off guard and failed to break through the defense circle and rush to Vanessa.

However, the wolves reacted very quickly. After the situation changed, they immediately sent three more giant wolves to join the battle. This left the deer spirits, who had not yet been able to completely deal with the second round of giant wolves, with no time to spare!

Seeing this, Vanessa was not at all panicked. She used the sound of her flute to order the deer spirits to concentrate on dealing with the enemies in front of them. After the new three giant wolves rushed around the carriage, she suddenly jumped high, avoided the siege of the giant wolves, and landed next to one of the deer spirits.

Vanessa walked lightly around the deer spirits and continued to play the music. The giant wolves' attacks, bites and claws on her were all in vain.

While she was dodging the attacks, the humanoid deer spirits steadily smashed the heads of one giant wolf after another.

In the blink of an eye, the corpses of nine giant wolves were lying on the plain.

Seeing that no giant wolf dared to come forward, Vanessa temporarily stopped playing. At this time, a giant wolf in human form walked to the front from the dark shadows of the wolf pack and confronted Vanessa at a distance of forty or fifty meters.

Vanessa recognized this guy. This werewolf had led a team to attack her twice, and this time was the first time he faced her face to face.
