The crisp sound of water flow sounded in the sewer pipe, and a small paper boat was rushing down quickly with a large amount of pool water in the dark sewer pipe.
After running like this for a while, suddenly——
"Bang!" A muffled sound came from the bottom of the boat.
The speeding boat seemed to hit something and suddenly stopped.
"careful!"
Nasha, who was on the paper boat, rushed forward driven by inertia. Just as she was about to lose her grip on the paper boat, Heath beside her quickly pulled her back.
After a turbulence, the paper boat stopped completely.
"I gonna go see."
Heath walked to the boat and stuck his head out to look down, trying to see clearly what was causing the paper boat to stop, but the surroundings were too dark, and even after trying for a long time, he couldn't tell what it was.
Just as he frowned, a spell suddenly sounded after itself.
"A little light, all illuminated..."
A beam of light suddenly lit up in the dark sewer pipe, lighting up the dark space.
Heath turned his head and saw at a glance that the source of the light was in front of Nasha. At this moment, a fist-sized ball of light was floating on her chest, like a flying luminous gem.
Apprentice-level low-level light element spell [Ball of Light].
Heath was stunned.
He was all surprised and said: "Is this a spell you cast? Have you already condensed the third character?"
Without the help of witchcraft, potions, or magic circles, Nasha was completely relying on her own magic power to cast spells at this time, and this was an ability that only had at least three characters.
Nasha smiled: "It's not bad, right?"
God!
Heath didn't know how to describe his mood at this moment. Although he had always known that this pink-haired man was very talented, he never imagined that this guy would be so fast. It had only been less than three months since they entered the academy.
..
I feel my cheeks get hot just thinking about how powerful I was in front of others...
Heath said bravely: "It's really surprising."
Nasha said with a hint of pride: "That is, if there is nothing extraordinary about me, how can I be in the same room with noble grandpas like you?"
In principle, wizards do not accept civilians. Those who can embark on the path of wizards are born into nobles. At the worst, they have a trace of noble blood and are related to nobles. Over the years, there have been only a handful of civilians.
After a pause, she changed the subject and said, "Okay, let's see what's blocking our way."
Heath nodded.
He turned around and stuck his head out to look down again. This time with Nasha's light source, he could easily distinguish what was under the boat.
"It's hair." Heath said, "A lot of hair got entangled in the boat."
He looked around, then took his head back and said, "I think we have to get off the boat and walk. The boat can no longer move forward."
Nasha said happily: "Then what are you waiting for? I don't want to get stuck in the wall with the shrinking potion."
After saying that, she turned over and jumped out of the boat: "Let's go, warrior."
Heath nodded, turned over and jumped off the boat.
The two immediately started walking on the road.
"Da da da!" The crisp sound of footsteps echoed in the sewer pipes.
As he walked forward, Heath turned his head and looked around. There was really everything in the sewer pipe, including insect corpses, toothbrushes, handkerchiefs, hairpins, brooches... It was simply a garbage dump... everything
All kinds of hair wrapped around all kinds of filth are scattered everywhere. After fermentation, these things form a putrid smell that permeates the entire unventilated sewer pipe. Although this is not a cesspool pipe, it is
The smell is really unpleasant.
Heath couldn't help but look at Nasha twice.
Walking in such an environment, other girls would have been fainted by the smoke long ago, but she acted like a normal person, stepping on the filthy ground without any objection at all. She was not as squeamish as other girls.
...
"Rustling..." At this moment, a slight abnormal sound suddenly came from the darkness ahead.
Heath tensed up and subconsciously took a step forward.
Nasha next to her was also very cooperative. Without Heath having to say anything, she swooped and hid behind Heath like a kitten.
The two of them looked forward intently. In the darkness, something came closer and quickly came to the light source.
That is...
Nasha's whole body tensed up: "Scavengers!!!"
What appeared in front of the two of them was a bottom creature that often appeared in sewer pipes, a scavenger.
Heath said: "Isn't it normal for this thing to appear in the sewer?"
As he spoke, his eyes swept around and soon landed on the side of the road not far away, where a brooch was inserted diagonally into a ball of hair.
Heath walked over and pulled the brooch out of his hair. He pulled off the pendant and left the main stem alone in his hand.
He waved twice.
"Huhu!~" The sound of breaking wind sounded.
It feels pretty good!
"Heath, that thing is coming!!!" At this moment, Nasha's panicked voice sounded.
Are you afraid of scavengers?
"Zheng!" The loud sound of the sword sounded.
After a brief period of random thinking, Heath had already launched a charge towards the scavenger in front.
step...
Three steps...
Ten steps!
The next second——
"Bang!" There was a muffled sound.
The brooch stabbed hard on the scavenger's head, but unfortunately it was blocked by the thick hard shell. The power of the shrunken body was too weak.
The other side of the carrion also angrily raised its two forelimbs and fought back at Hiss. Although the previous attack failed to cause fatal damage to it, it did cause it a lot of pain.
"Hoo ho! Ding ding! Kaka!"
The blade-like forelimbs cut through the air and collided with the brooch, making a crisp sound. Hiss and the scavenger quickly fought fiercely.
After a while this continued—
"Poof!" a sound.
Heath finally caught the chance. When the scavenger raised its forelimbs to attack him, Heath made a sneak attack from below and sent the brooch into the scavenger's jaw.
"squeak--"
The fatally injured scavenger let out a violent scream, and its whole body twitched and rolled on the ground. Heath rushed forward and stabbed it more than a dozen times before finally stopping this tenacious thing.
"Huh!~"
Heath breathed a long sigh of relief and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He never thought that one day it would take so much effort to deal with a thing that could be trampled to death with one kick.
But before he could take a breath, a trembling voice came from behind.
"Hi...Hi...Hi...His..."
Heath turned his head and saw Nasha's pale face at a glance. She seemed to be getting more frightened.
What is the reason?
Just when Heath was curious, Nasha pointed tremblingly at the darkness ahead, and said tremblingly: "You...you...look..."
Heath subconsciously turned his head and took a closer look.
At this sight, my hair stood on end.
But I saw pairs of eyes lighting up in the darkness over there, and with a "squeaking" sound, swarms of scavengers came out of the darkness.
Heath gasped, feeling his scalp numb.
"Pa!" Suddenly, there was a soft sound.
Before he could react, he only felt a heavy weight on his back, and something had been pressed against him. The soft touch was quite comfortable.
It turned out to be Nasha. She jumped onto Heath's back without hesitation, and wrapped her two slender arms around his neck, strangling him to death.
She looked extremely frightened and kept pleading: "Don't leave me, don't leave me, don't leave me..."
Well, what else can be said.
Heath pulled her arm and adjusted its position so that he could breathe smoothly, and then——
