In the dark cave, Viviana held a scarlet silver sword and fought against two marble evil-eye snakes. In order to save magic power, she fought very cautiously.
It was not difficult to tell from her serious eyes that she was thinking quickly.
Jiang Ran was racking his brains. He knew better than anyone else that the remaining magic power of Viviana was the countdown to their death as he could see Viviana's status information.
Jiang Ran remembered that he had just seen that the three-dimensional values of the Shadow-Eating Rock Demon were very unbalanced. Its vitality and endurance were not high, but its magic power was ridiculously high.
(5650/9780……)
Based on this number, Jiang Ran speculated that in the worst case scenario, the Shadow-Eating Rock Demon could summon another seven or eight granite puppets, or five or six marble evil-eye stone snakes.
With Viviana's magic power now recovered to over 600, she can only barely cope with it. If the Shadow Devouring Rock Demon has any other tricks up his sleeve, it will be dangerous.
If they wanted to bypass the summons and attack the main body directly, it would be too easy for the petite Shadow Devouring Rock Demon to hide in this cave. What's more, this guy can hide in the shadows and not come out...
"Sir! Please cover me!"
Jiang Ran suddenly rushed forward, and after approaching the shadow that hid the Shadow-Eating Rock Demon, he suddenly took out the glowing magic stone and completely illuminated the shadow!
"How the hell do you know...?!" (Demon language)
From the disappearing shadow, the Shadow Devouring Rock Demon quickly jumped out, but its speed was so fast that Jiang Ran didn't have a chance to catch it. In the blink of an eye, it escaped to another shadow and...
"I don't want to play anymore! I'll let you die now!!" (Demon language)
As the Shadow-Eating Rock Demon finished speaking, the cave began to shake violently. This time, six granite puppets appeared in succession, along with two marble evil-eyed stone snakes, and surrounded Jiang Ran and the others tightly!
What's worse is that because his vision was blocked, Jiang Ran could no longer see which shadow the Shadow-Eating Rock Demon was hiding in.
"Get crushed to death among the rocks, hehehehe!!" (Demon language)
The encirclement of the granite puppets and the marble evil-eye snakes began to shrink. Viviana was still able to protect herself, but Jiang Ran...
——(Scarlet Silver Sword Formation)
Viviana thrust the scarlet-silver sword in her hand into the ground. Then, seven scarlet-silver beams shot out from under Jiang Ran's feet, forming a circular halo that protected him.
This move reduced Viviana's already limited magic power by another 300 points.
If possible, Viviana also wanted to cover herself with the "Crimson Silver Sword Formation", but her current level of "Crimson Silver Sword Formation" could not accommodate two people, and if both of them entered the sword formation, they would not be able to attack these summons.
"Don't worry, I will protect you."
Even in such a situation, Viviana still tried to comfort the hunter she didn't know.
In this increasingly narrow space, the granite puppet monster and the marble evil-eye stone snake bypassed Jiang Ran and tried to surround and kill Viviana together.
Viviana held a scarlet silver sword in her hand and fought against these hard stone monsters with only her sword skills.
In order to avoid running out of magic power and falling into dizziness, she didn't dare to continue using magic power. The only magic power she consumed now was to maintain the "Crimson Silver Sword Formation" to protect the hunter.
One, two... Viviana's miraculous sword skills destroyed the mobility of one granite golem after another, but in this dark and chaotic environment, she failed to notice in time that several long-eared jerboas were "licking" her shadow.
"Sir! Those long-eared jerboas are also problematic!!"
When Jiang Ran noticed it, it was already too late.
Viviana's magic power suddenly dropped to zero, and an irresistible dizziness swept over her brain, causing her to fall to the ground suddenly.

3.32 - Wisdom in Desperate Situations (Update)
Jiang Ran miscalculated.
Or perhaps, this encounter was too urgent and did not give him time to think carefully.
Jiang Ran already knew about the knowledge about the monster tribe.
[Note: See "3.23 - Canyon Reunion"]
[img=700,709]https://rss.sfacg.com/web/novel/images/UploadPic/2022/10/f55d55ac-96ff-480f-a176-012f4161d9a4.jpg[/img]
But after seeing the Shadow-Eating Rock Demon Svalerok, who looked very similar to the long-eared jerboa, Jiang Ran forgot that there were many ordinary long-eared jerboas living in this canyon and even in this underground cave.
To the Shadow-Eating Rock Demon that mutated into a monster, these ordinary long-eared jerboas that did not mutate are also its kind!
Therefore, when Jiang Ran discovered some long-eared jerboas moving in the shadows, it was actually too late.
Among those ordinary long-eared jerboas, there are also "Shadow Devouring Rock Demon Cub" that look like ordinary long-eared jerboas but are actually monsters.

Shadow-Eating Rock Demon·Nameless, male, 1 year old
Shadow Devouring Rock Demon - Lv2
Skill slots: 1/1
Vitality: 13/13
Stamina: 15/18
Mana: 60/60
━━━━━━━━━━
The Shadow-Eating Rock Demon cub looks no different from an ordinary long-eared jerboa. If Jiang Ran didn't have the ability to identify it, he wouldn't be able to tell the difference at all.
Jiang Ran took a quick look and saw that among the long-eared jerboas licking Viviana's shadow, there were five or six Shadow-Eating Rock Demon cubs, both male and female, and most of them were under 5 years old.
Viviana's magic power suddenly dropped to zero, it must be the work of these cubs.
But now, Jiang Ran has no time to take care of these cubs. If he doesn't find a way to escape from this encirclement, he and Viviana will die soon!
·
"Hehehe, well done, my children." (Demon language)
"This time I can eat delicious high-level humans, hehehe!" (Demon language)
The Shadow-Eating Rock Demon's voice made Jiang Ran's hair stand on end. The monsters around him, which were probably at level 30 or 40, made him look as small as an ant.
However, Jiang Ran was not ready to give up.
He is the kind of person who would still try to save himself even if he saw a coffin!
"Svalerok! You're too happy too soon! Look at the scarlet silver rapier behind you!!"
As the Crimson Silver Sword Formation that was protecting him disappeared, Jiang Ran shouted in the direction of the Shadow-Eating Rock Demon's voice. This threat made the Shadow-Eating Rock Demon subconsciously control his summoned creatures to retreat a little, revealing a gap in the encirclement.
Jiang Ran took the opportunity to take out the only two smoke bombs from his bag and detonated them together!
In an instant, the entire cave was filled with smoke and nothing could be seen clearly!
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Jiang Ran carried the unable to move Viviana on his shoulders, and took her through the gaps between the granite golems quickly based on his memory. He rushed out of the smoke with all his might and followed his intuition to escape in the cave.
Jiang Ran didn't know how long he had been running, but he was exhausted. At this time, Viviana also woke up from the dizziness caused by the exhaustion of her magic power.
"Hunter... where are we...? How did you... escape me...?"
"That's... a long story..."
Jiang Ran put Viviana down, he was already exhausted and out of breath.
·
The smoke bomb will not last long. Even if Jiang Ran and the others escape from the encirclement, their situation will remain the same as long as they cannot find the exit of the underground cave.
Jiang Ran and Viviana were both very clear about this. They had to think of a way to turn the tide before the Shadow-Eating Rock Demon and his summons caught up with them.
Viviana is in a very bad condition now. As a magic swordsman, magic is the basis of her damage output, but she is now in a negative state of magic exhaustion.
The so-called magic exhaustion, in addition to causing severe dizziness for five minutes after the magic power returns to zero, will also make the magic exhaustion person unable to restore magic power through sleep or potions within 120 minutes.
Viviana never imagined that the loss of magic power she felt from time to time after entering the canyon was caused by these cute, fluffy long-eared jerboas.
If he couldn't recover his magic power before the enemy caught up, he wouldn't be able to win with just this unenhanced scarlet silver longsword.
There seemed to be only one way left for Viviana: trigger the hidden magic mark and let the Red and Black Elders come to the rescue.
However, Viviana did not want to trigger the magic mark, because if the elders knew that she did not obey the order and stayed in Gude Town, she would be severely punished if she returned.
Viviana's body trembled involuntarily at the thought of the horrible punishment.
On the other side, Jiang Ran sat quietly while recovering his stamina and thinking of a strategy. He observed the surrounding terrain and Viviana's status information, and he wanted to make use of all the elements that could be used.
He firmly believed that there would be a way to break the current deadlock...!
·
"Sir, I have an idea...!"
"hunter……!"
Jiang Ran and Viviana spoke at the same time. Jiang Ran had already thought of a solution, but was not sure whether it was feasible, while Viviana was a little hesitant.
"You speak first." The hesitant Viviana decided to listen to the hunter's thoughts first.
During this encounter, Viviana had noticed something unusual about this hunter.
Time was running out, so Jiang Ran bluntly told Viviana a plan to turn defeat into victory, but he still needed Viviana to provide some key props.
Viviana was very surprised after hearing Jiang Ran's idea. She didn't expect that there was such a way to reverse the situation.
--(but……)
--(I……)
"Your idea is good, beyond imagination, but, I'm sorry... I have no magic power left now, and I'm not sure I can kill the summoner's true body."
Viviana clenched her fists. She felt very guilty and blamed herself for not discovering the problem of the long-eared jerboa earlier, otherwise she would not be so passive now.
"Are there no potions that can restore mana?"
"No, and I can't recover my magic power right now."
Viviana told Jiang Ran about the exhaustion of her magic power, which extinguished Jiang Ran's originally ignited hope.
In order to complete the strategy of turning defeat into victory, Viviana's powerful attack is indispensable.
At this moment, Jiang Ran remembered that Viviana seemed to want to say something to him just now.
"My Lord, what did you want to tell me?"
"I...what I want to say is..."
Viviana pursed her lips and looked at the hunter's lips again, not knowing how to start.
However, the enemy may catch up at any time.
There is no time.
Even if you don't actively trigger the magic mark now, if you are seriously injured by the enemy later, the magic mark will be triggered automatically.
If Viviana wants to avoid the punishment of the Red and Black Elders, she really has only one way to go.
"I'm sorry, I didn't have time to explain...!"
Viviana took off her veil and suddenly pushed Jiang Ran to the ground.
"Please trust me and close your eyes."
Viviana's cheeks were flushed and her eyes were slightly flickering, but sincere.
Jiang Ran looked at the angelic Viviana in front of him;
Smelling the delicate fragrance on her body;
Feeling her warm breath;
Jiang Ran closed his eyes.
Then, something soft and sweet touched Jiang Ran's lips.

3.33 - Fragrance, Warmth, and Softness (Update)
The moment she touched the boy's body, Viviana trembled slightly.
The strange touch from her lips made her whole body numb.
