The war blade and the stone pillar collided hard together, and the latter suddenly shattered into pieces. Many fragments splashed on the little devil's body, scaring it so much that it curled up like a hedgehog and screamed in terror.
This coward!
Zhao Xi couldn't help but shook his head, reached out and took it out of the broken stone prison.
"You're free!" he said.
Sulu lay on the ground and shook non-stop, until Zhao Xi was almost impatient, then he timidly raised his head and looked around, with a surprise smile on his wrinkled face.
"Sulu, are you really free?"
Zhao Xi nodded and said, "Yes, but you must lead me to find the secret passage into Mount Doom."
The little devil struggled to get up, flapped his pair of small fleshy wings that looked more like decorations, and saluted Zhao Xi respectfully: "As you command, my lord!"
It has a round head and body, pointed ears and big black eyes. It also wears a small black tuxedo and looks quite interesting and cute.
System prompt: Your team successfully rescued the little demon Sulu, the plane journey completion level is 2/4, the main plane reputation +5, and gained 125,000 experience points!
This is a reward for clearing the level. The experience is not as good as the experience gained from killing the boss before, but it also increases Zhao Xi's level 23 experience bar by a small amount.
"Let's go!"
Zhao Xi took it out of the dungeon and rejoined Xiong Bin and Sha Ye first.
Xiong Bin had been waiting in the passage without moving even half a step. When he saw Zhao Xi coming back, he immediately said happily: "Captain, I am already over level 13!"
Because the distance between the two parties is very close, he has shared a wealth of experience whether it is killing bosses or completing customs clearance tasks.
Although the experience gained by Xiong Bin is definitely not comparable to that of Zhao Xi, because the two of them shared it, the experience gained undoubtedly helped him upgrade two levels in a row, from level 11 to level 13.
This kind of upgrade speed is absolutely rocket-like!
Of course, as the level increases, more and more experience will be needed later, and it cannot be done so quickly. But compared to Xiong Bin's solo spawning of monsters and quests, it is simply incomparable.
"It's a joke!"
Zhao Xi chuckled, but his eyes fell on Sha Ye.
This hero who originally belonged to him, a level 20 archer, looked at Zhao Xi with a blank look on his face and murmured: "My lord, do you no longer need my following?"
The hero badge is damaged. The permanent contract between Sha Ye and Zhao Xi is invalidated at the same time!
To be honest, Zhao Xi feels very sorry. As an NPC hero, Shaye has a very good character and temper, and the hunter's fighting ability is also very good. He has helped him defeat powerful enemies several times.
Forcibly equipping the Demon Badge was undoubtedly a huge mistake, but it was irreversible at this point, and there was no point in regretting it.
After thinking about it, Zhao Xi took out a city-returning scroll and 20 gold coins and handed it to the other party: "This was just an accident, Saya, I am very grateful for the help you gave me, but now you are free!"
"With this money, you can live your own life!"
In this huge virtual world, NPCs also have their own life trajectories. Zhao Xi regrets that he cannot continue to walk with Shaye and simply allows him to gain true freedom.
Saya took the scroll and the coins, and the confusion in her eyes disappeared.
He bowed deeply to Zhao Xi and said: "Sir, being able to fight alongside you is the greatest honor of my life. I hope that one day, I can continue to fight with you!"
An inexplicable sadness came to Zhao Xi's heart. Although his reason told him that what was standing in front of him was just an NPC virtualized by the master brain, he could not equate it with the cold data.
"I hope that one day too!"
Seeing Sha Ye disappear in front of his eyes, Zhao Xi could not calm down for a long time.
Xiong Bin, who was standing next to him, said nothing because he could understand Zhao Xi's mood at this moment.
"Walk!"
………
The majestic volcano is like a standing giant. Standing at the foot of the mountain and looking up at the mountain top sprayed with thick smoke and flames will make people feel an inexplicable sense of awe and not dare to approach easily.
Large streams of hot magma flowed out of the volcano crater and caves on the mountainside, and streams gathered at the foot of the mountain. The air was filled with a strong smell of sulfur, and the scorching heat was suffocating!
"This is it!"
Zhao Xi and Xiong Bin were both so hot that they felt almost cooked. The little devil Sulu became more and more lively in such an environment. It jumped up to a rock wall.
This rock wall is almost two meters high. It looks like it has been struck by an extremely sharp sword. Its surface is very smooth, which is in stark contrast to the surrounding rugged volcanic rocks.
There is no doubt that this is the entrance to the secret passage inside Mount Doomsday, but without the little devil Sulu, this portal would never be able to be opened.
"Open the door!" Zhao Xi said.
"Gudesiani, Kasoda..."
Sulu stood in front of the rock wall, raised his hands and waved them left and right, chanting obscure spells in his mouth.
The next moment, bits of white light shone through the rock wall, and lines lit up one by one, forming a complex and precise magic array in an instant.
boom!
With a dull roar, the entire rock wall began to shake, and a portal slowly opened.
The secret hidden deep inside the rock wall appeared in front of Zhao Xi and Zhao Xi at the same time!
call!
Suddenly, a long tongue of fire flew out from the secret passage like lightning, instantly entangled Sulu standing in front of the rock wall, and pulled him in completely!
"Help!"
The little devil was caught off guard and screamed loudly.
Zhao Xi was also surprised, because the plane guide he had read did not mention that there was danger lurking at the entrance of the secret passage, and it was already too late to stop it.
"Silly bear, pay attention to your own safety!"
He told Xiong Bin, and immediately took great strides and rushed into the secret passage exposed on the rock wall.
This long secret passage leads directly to the interior of the volcano, which is the lair of the last guard, SS Ogg Balrog.
Don't think that this secret passage will be a smooth road, because there are many monsters entrenched in it. Only by completely destroying them can you pass this level.
A fire beast whose whole body was burning with flames blocked Zhao Xi's path.
It has a body like a bull, a huge head that is ugly and ferocious, a long fire whip tail waving left and right behind it, and it is biting the little demon Sulu in its open mouth.
The poor little guy had completely passed out, and when the level 23 fire beast saw Zhao Xi appear, it immediately raised its head and swallowed Sulu forcefully, with a pair of fiery eyes showing fiercely!
For such an enemy, Zhao Xi had no common language with it, so he suddenly increased his speed and slashed the blade of destiny towards the head of the fire beast.
roar!
The fire beast that had just swallowed the little devil let out an angry roar. It stood there without dodging, but spit out a stream of hot flames towards Zhao Xi.
Poof!
The war blade struck heavily on the top of the fire beast's head, but the flames spurted out by the latter were blocked by the bloodthirsty war shield that suddenly appeared on Zhao Xi's left hand.
-395!-421!
-156!
The first two blood loss figures are the result of Zhao Xi's double strike, while the latter one is the damage caused by the fire beast's counterattack!
Magma-like body fluids gush out from the wound on the top of the head and quickly flow down on the face of the fire beast. This fire beast obviously did not expect that Zhao Xi's attack power was so powerful, and it undoubtedly suffered a big loss.
roar!
It roared again, swung its paws with sharp claws and struck hard at Zhao Xi.
Zhao Xi nimbly took two steps back, and suddenly swung his knife and hit the claw of the fire beast that missed.
-388!
Half of its paw was actually cut off by the Blade of Destiny. The fire beast howled and lost its balance and fell heavily to the ground, never getting up again.
System prompt: You have gained 405 experience points!
As a level 23 Warcraft, the Fire Beast has quite a lot of HP, but it cannot compete with the powerful lethality of the Blade of Destiny.
Zhao Xi did not look at the equipment that had fallen to the ground. He looked past the fire beast's corpse and towards the depths of the secret passage, the end covered in flames!

The hero badge is a pity, but the devil badge is more powerful, and Saya's story will not end. (To be continued...)
