As soon as the giant corpse flower appeared, she turned around as quickly as possible to come back for reinforcements, but in the end the distance was too far and she was unable to help "Lefia" block the nearly fatal blow.
Fortunately, someone killed the Demonic Corpse Flower one step ahead of her and saved the dying "Lefiya", which finally allowed her to calm down a little.
"Lefiya, are you okay?"
"Ah...I'm fine, thank you, Miss Ace."
The elf girl waved her hands in panic, and subconsciously distanced herself a few steps away from Luo Jie. Her heart was beating so fast that it almost jumped out of her throat. She felt an inexplicable strong sense of shame at being caught in bed with a girl.
The dull "Ais" would naturally not be aware of the rich inner drama of a certain elf girl. After confirming that "Lefia" was not injured, her eyes turned to Luo Jie beside her, and she was slightly startled.
"Is it you? You are the one from the Ishtar Familia...who is it?"
"Ais, you really need to change your habit of not remembering people."
The Amazon sisters who were out of trouble came forward from the side. The short-haired sister "Diona" who always looked full of energy put her arm around "Ace"'s shoulders, stretched out her hand to Luo Jie in a friendly way and said, "Mr. Nightmare"
, thank you for your help, today’s um will definitely explode tomorrow.”
Facing the Amazon girl's outstretched hand, Luo Jie shook it briefly and then let it go, saying solemnly: "Although you shouldn't say words that offend the scenery at this time... don't rejoice too early, there may not have been only one monster just now."
As if to verify Luo Jie's guess, as soon as he finished speaking, the ground beneath their feet shook violently again.
Rumble——!
Three more ancient python-like corpse flowers emerged from the ground, and thousands of dense aerial roots rose up one after another, instantly razing all buildings within a hundred meters to the ground.
The scene of crazy growth that covers the sky and the sun makes people feel like they are in a deep and dangerous primitive jungle.
"Damn it! You really got it right!"
"Big Cut-Tiona" tore off several climbing air roots with her bare hands, but was wrapped around her body again by more vine-like air roots, hanging upside down in the air in a very lustful manner.
"Tiona, don't get entangled with these branches and attack its body! Damn it, it's so inconvenient to have no weapons!"
"Angry Snake Tione" is not as reckless as her younger sister, but the air roots of these Demonic Corpse Flowers are too numerous and too dense. No matter how much she dodges, she can never get close to the huge body that is tens of meters high.
"Wake up——!"
"Sword Princess Ais" drew her sword and whispered a brief incantation. The strong wind that gathered from all directions lifted her light body and flew into the sky like a soaring bird.
This is her only magic [Wind Spirit Swiftness] - surrounding herself with wind, improving attack, defense and speed, and enabling short-distance flight and mid-air steering.
The sword was like lightning, piercing the calyx of a devil corpse flower, and colliding with the scale-like hard shell made a deafening sound of gold and iron.
Click.
Fine cracks appeared on the blade of the rapier, and the next moment it was overwhelmed and broke into several pieces.
"Sure enough... the backup weapon still doesn't work. Now I'm going to get scolded again..."
"Sword Princess Ais"'s usual weapon is a rapier, but her moves are a powerful and fast attack. Ordinary weapons cannot withstand her violent output frequency.
Because of this, "Loki" specially commissioned another forging clan's main god "Gubniu" to create an exclusive weapon for him - the "Sword of Despair" with the attribute of "indestructible".
However, "not broken" does not mean that it will never be damaged. It just means that it is less damaged than ordinary weapons. If it is placed in the hands of ordinary adventurers, it will probably be passed down to several generations. But in the hands of "Ais"...
...Well, it just means it can be used for a while longer.
After returning from the 50th floor expedition not long ago, the [Sword of Despair] broke again, so what "Ais" has in her hand is just a slightly better ordinary weapon.
The moment "Ais" was in a daze, a Demonic Corpse Flower swung its flower head like a long whip and hit her hard on the back. Although she was not seriously hurt under the protection of [Wind Spirit Speedy], it was
It was still knocked away with great force like a cannonball.
The expected hard impact did not appear. "Ais" only felt that her back seemed to have touched some kind of soft object, and then her whole body was surrounded by a pair of powerful arms below, sliding against the ground to remove all the impact.
Strength.
It's that man from the Ishtar Familia again... Well, what's his name?
"Thank you."
"You're welcome."
A deep mouth full of sharp teeth opens in the center of the huge flower head, falling from the sky like a large upside-down umbrella carrying the howling evil wind.
——"Secret Sword: Obsidian Sword"!
Luo Jie didn't even put down "Aisi" in his arms. He just grabbed the [Netherworld Flower Burial] at his waist with one hand and flipped it back. The half-moon-shaped bloody sword light split the huge flower head in the sky into two, and turned it into two.
The sky filled with black smoke slowly dissipated overhead.
The beautiful golden pupils of "Sword Princess Ais" couldn't help but widen in an instant.
Although it was not difficult for her to kill these monsters, she thought that she would never be able to do it so lightly as the man in front of her.
Strange, didn't he only have LV.2? Why is he so strong?
"Hey! Brother Nightmare, don't patronize Aisi, but help us!"
The "Great Cut-off Tiona" hanging upside down in the air shouted to Luo Jie without any sense of nervousness, and there was obviously a subtle change in the title.
"Miss Ais, protect your elf companion, I will rescue them."
Perhaps sensing that his body was under threat, hundreds of green energy roots rushed in like a raging flood, intertwining into a nearly airtight sky-covering net in front of Luo Jie.
Luo Jie had already experienced this, and the long sword on his waist instantly cut out a piece of fine sword energy.
——"Secret Sword·Snow"!
Countless palm-sized small blades flew like a swarm of gorgeous butterflies, crushing the criss-crossing green air roots along the way and tearing open an irregular passage dozens of meters long.
Before the other Qi roots could gather and fill up, Luo Jie's figure had already flown by, and he drew his sword in the air in one go. The huge sword light raised a scarlet blood moon over the square.
——"Secret Sword: Obsidian Sword"!
After a brief period of stiffness, the two remaining corpse flowers suddenly split horizontally from the center of the flower like a cut-out picture, slid down several meters, and turned into black mist all over the sky.
The Amazon twin sisters "Tione" and "Tiona" quickly joined the team after landing. They took a defensive posture back to back and vigilantly looked at the movements of the already tattered ground.
"It should...not happen again, right?"
If they were in a dungeon, it wouldn't matter if there were several times more monsters like this. But right now, they have no weapons, and the surrounding areas are residential areas. It's hard to fight, and they can't run. It's extremely frustrating to be tied up.
"It seems there is no more." Suddenly relaxed, "Thousand Fairy Lefiya" knelt down on the ground without strength, and complained with lingering fear: "What on earth is the Ganesha Familia doing? Why do they let so many monsters escape?
?”
"It may not be a problem with the Ganesha Familia." "Swordswoman Ais" squatted on the ground and searched for something, then shook her head and returned empty-handed, "There's something wrong with this monster. It didn't drop any magic crystals."
"Angry Snake-Tione" seemed to have thought of something and said in shock: "Isn't that the same as the new species of monster we encountered on the 50th floor? But the problem is, if it wasn't the Ganesha Familia who did it, who would have the ability?
Transporting so many LV.4 monsters to the ground?"
Not long ago, the time that caused the "Minotaur" to go berserk on the 17th floor, the Loki Familia accidentally discovered a caterpillar-type monster they had never seen before during their expedition to the 50th floor.
It is not unusual for new types of monsters to occasionally appear in dungeons, but what is strange is that these monsters do not drop magic crystals after killing them like ordinary monsters.
Even if the magic crystal is forcibly extracted from a living body, it will still show a disgusting yellow-green color, not the conventional gem purple.
If there was only one kind of monster like this, it could be said to be a special species, but now a second similar monster has appeared, and the signal it sends may be unusual.
"Let's report to Lord Loki when we go back." "Angry Snake Tione" turned his gaze to Luo Jie and asked curiously: "Mr. Night Dire, if I remember correctly, you should only have LV.2, right? Could it be you?
Have you hidden your level... Don't get me wrong, even if you hide your level, we will not tell the guild, and our Loki Familia will not do such ungrateful things."
My younger sister "Diona - Diona" also helped: "Yes, Brother Night Dire, you looked really handsome when you killed these monsters just now. I feel like another "Ace"."
Luo Jie smiled, shook his head and denied: "I am really only LV.2, but I have a special skill that can greatly improve my combat effectiveness when facing plant monsters."
"Oh I got it."
Several people looked surprised, but they were not particularly shocked. After all, "Sword Princess Ais"'s special skill "Vengeance Princess" is such a similar ability.
"What...it turns out it's just good luck."
"Thousand Fairies - Lefia" breathed a sigh of relief. She would never admit that someone could surpass "Ais" in swordsmanship.
"No, it's not luck." "Ais" stared at the [Netherworld Flower Burial] in Luo Jie's hand, and said sternly: "I just took advantage of the level. Mr. Nightmare's swordsmanship skills are actually better than mine - at least
He won't break the sword."
Luo Jieqian laughed a few times.
To be honest, based on his observation of "Ais", this girl definitely chose the wrong weapon. Her fighting style is actually more suitable for a two-handed sword or a battle axe.
"Hey! Ace! Tione! Have you solved it too?"
At the corner of the street where the house collapsed, the goddess "Loki", who looked like a handsome young man, came over holding a little orc girl who seemed to have been separated from her family, waving to say hello to several people.
"Okay, we should go back...Thank you for your help, Mr. Nightmare."
Under the leadership of "Angry Snake Tione", several members of Loki's family shook hands with Luo Jie one by one and thanked him.
Although a certain elf girl couldn't get over the hurdle in her heart, it was a life-saving grace after all, so she could only pinch her fingertips.
After "Ais" shook hands for the last time, she suddenly made a request that surprised everyone.
"Mr. Nightmare, if you have time, can you teach me how to use the sword?"
Today is a little better than yesterday... Hey, if I had had the energy to tutor children in their homework, I would probably have been admitted to Tsinghua University and Peking University.
