Chapter 260 The movement of the divine tree, the pose of a dream
The water here is dark green. Although the water in many ponds has this color due to plankton, it is very strange that the water can still maintain this color when it is taken out by magic.
"But it was really fun to fight. The monsters here are not a big deal." Jian Ye said.
"But Xiaojian, wasn't the one you were interested in killed by Sister Hinata?" Alice complained.
"That's because Sister Hinata is too impatient. We can definitely win too!" Kenya argued.
If it is really wild without Veldora's control, the chance of winning is not impossible.
Gale concluded: "If that kind of powerful monsters attack in multiple numbers, we won't be able to bear it. We have to work hard to become stronger. It's getting dark now, and we will encounter groups of monsters like that when we go down the mountain at night.
It’s very dangerous. Check the surrounding situation first, and if there’s no problem, then camp here.”
"Then, let me go and see the one that looked particularly beautiful in the air at that time~"
Alice sent Ruthbert to work, while she jumped a little and let Princess Annes go in front, and ran towards a low-hanging branch of the giant tree, where there happened to be a flower that could be used as a bed.
The purple-red five-petaled flowers are not too small.
The distance was less than five meters when suddenly, the flower stamens turned into strips of tentacles and bound towards them.
But Alice was mentally prepared that this might be a monster: "Princess Anise!"
A sharp blade popped out from under Princess Anise's arm and skirt. A burst of high-speed rotating [Blade Storm] cut off all the surrounding tentacles. Then she jumped up, raised her arm high and slashed off the upper section of the flower, taking the flower with it behind.
The calyx and the half-meter-long stem were cut together.
……………………………………………………
At the same time, Hinata, who was doing some research near the roots of the tree, also found some clues.
She was also attacked by tentacles as she approached. These were nothing to her, but they made her pay more attention to some tentacles near the roots of the tree that were wrapped like hanging silkworm cocoons and a large number of small roots growing on the ground.
of animal carcasses.
"It seems like it's not a place to stay for a long time. Although it's taboo to go down the mountain at night, it won't be a problem if Chloe and I are here. Let's go and inform them."
Suddenly, the giant tree became restless, more tentacles came to life, and the things wrapped in those tentacles like silkworm cocoons began to "emerge into butterflies" one after another.
"Tch—" Hinata, who was heavily surrounded by tentacles and unknown monsters, began to break out.
Although it was not difficult, she was a little worried about the children.
……………………………………………………
"Everyone, stand firm!" Gale knelt down on one knee and slapped the ground. The small patch of ground where the five people were sitting immediately fell downwards like an elevator, descending several meters in one breath.
Immediately afterwards, the beams of light ejected from the flowers on the giant tree passed over their heads in dense numbers, and the light almost made them unable to open their eyes.
Then there was a roar and vibration in the distance. It was obvious that the explosion caused by the impact point of these beams was definitely not small.
"Alice, what did you stab just now?" Jian Ye shouted.
"I didn't know this would happen!" Alice was also very upset about this.
"Where's Hinata sister?" Ryota asked.
At this time, a large number of tentacles like before sprouted from the roots of the giant tree, breaking through the earth wall around them.
"Sister Hinata, we don't need to worry, we can't defeat this, retreat!" Gale shouted.
In order to avoid the tentacles, they jumped out of the pit and ran down the mountain.
"No, the second wave of attacks is coming!" Chloe looked back and shouted.
"Use that!" Jian Ye shouted.
"In this case, Gale and Ryota who haven't learned yet can't keep up with us. There's no other way. It's my fault, so let me help protect them!" Alice said, activating her unique skill [Servant].
Her body just disappeared, and her clothes and equipment were caught by "Princess Annes" before they fell, and were put back into her body in a few moments.
"Eh?!"
"Alice has disappeared!"
Gale and Ryota, who were still unaware, were immediately shocked.
"I'm here! Don't hold me back, boys! Just follow my orders!" The "Princess Anis" just turned her head and shouted at them, but at this time, the girl suddenly grew into a girl version.
Alice's face.
[Servant] is a skill that was born from the temporary expansion of Alice's capacity due to her own psychological hole when Cronpis used her side as a hiding place before resurrection.
When she came into this world, she felt lonely and scared. She wanted more partners, but she was afraid that among the more partners, her weak self would count. The power of gestation lies entirely in external objects and a certain level of boss.
Acting is her shield to protect herself.
[Servant] therefore has three derivative skills——
[Servant Generation]: Give your family members (dolls) a simple sense of judgment. They do not have any soul or spirit, but can only give Alice the reactions that she can imagine or subconsciously do.
[Service Correction]: Increase the abilities of Alice’s followers and Alice family members (dolls);
[Dream Attachment]: The appearance of oneself temporarily becoming one's favorite family member (doll) and one's own longed-for appearance, that is, a fusion.
Even Alice herself feels that this skill is simply "bad in terms of personality". She rarely uses it, and when she does use it, she will interpret it with other skills with similar effects. Last time she and Jian also dressed up as adults to find it.
The "dream attachment" that Crounpis uses for "part-time work".
At this time, the sword also instantly transformed into a tall and majestic posture that resembled a true brave man. This was a purely ordinary [Transformation Magic]. [Transformation Magic] will occupy part of the user's spirit and magic power, usually slightly reducing the combat effectiveness.
It is better used for espionage, but even so, it will be detected by more advanced detection magic. It is not very versatile, but Kenya's current body cannot display the hero qualifications he has obtained. For him whose body is not fully developed yet.
, so that the combat effectiveness does not decrease but increases.
It was Chloe who suggested Kenya learn [Transformation Magic] because she had experienced the benefits of an adult posture on combat effectiveness, and with Alice and Kenya as the backdrop, it was easier to play the big secret she didn't want to expose to her friends of the same age.
It doesn't seem out of the ordinary that she directly switches out Chronoa and transforms into a girl.
"Run!" x 3
Gale and Ryota heard Chloe, Alice, and Tsurugi yelling in more mature accents. When they followed the instructions, they were surprised to find that they could keep up with their sudden increase in speed. They thought this was a strengthening magic.
I didn’t pay much attention to this. Of course, what I cared more about than this matter was——
