"I see that you are still a little weak. Let me escort you down the mountain." Jiang Xin took the initiative to say to Zhang San.
"Sorry to trouble you, young hero."
Watching Jiang Xin sending Zhang San away along the mountain path, Zhong Mo couldn't help but sigh.
"I didn't expect that even the silly boy could become independent. Uncle Jiang Yi will definitely be pleased to see Jiang Xin like this..."
According to the instructions on the map, Zhong Mo took Qiqi to the target point. As expected, there were traces of the treasure thief group's activities here. The tents were still relatively intact, but all the people were gone.
Standing on a high ground next to the camp, you can indeed see several monsters wandering in the distance. More monsters are blocked by terrain and trees and cannot be seen clearly.
But you can vaguely see a large cave on the cliff above the monster's head.
"It seems that guy didn't lie to me. Qiqi, please wait for me here. I'll deal with these monsters first."
Zhong Mo was about to leave, but she felt she was being held back. She turned around and saw Qi Qi staring at her.
"Qiqi can also fight, Qiqi also wants to help."
"Okay, Qiqi, but you have to hide behind me and pay attention to your safety."
Zhong Mo took out Fei Mo. It was still a bit burdensome for her to use Guan Hong as a weapon. She still tried to save her physical strength and elemental power as much as possible in the wild battle, so she used Fei Mo.
After Qiqi also put on the dusty clothes, Zhong Mo crouched and sneaked close to the monster from the bushes.
In the middle clearing surrounded by woods, there are a few simple cauldrons. On the high ground next to them are some alert Qiuqiu people with crossbows. Next to the camp are several Qiuqiu shamans who are chanting strange spells.
In the middle of them, an Abyss mage holding a staff and a blue buckler beside him was listening to their prayers.
Several Qiuqiu thugs holding giant axes and huge rock shields sat beside the camp, staring at the meat cooking in the cauldron.
"I didn't expect that the monsters here have grown to such a scale. Fortunately, they were discovered early. They must be cleared away."
The conflict between monsters and humans is irreconcilable, because many parts of monsters are of high value to humans, so the Adventurers Association often has commissions to defeat monsters.
Many monsters not only kill humans, but even feed on humans. However, monsters have coexisted with the environment for a long time and have gradually become part of the ecology. Therefore, conscious control of the number of monsters has become an unspoken rule in most countries.
(If you don’t understand, just refer to tiger and lion)
For example, the land where Cao Qiu Qiu Shaman once existed will become very fertile and suitable for farming after a few years, and certain monsters will grow with certain cherished medicinal materials, etc.
"I didn't expect that even here, there would still be guests visiting."
The Abyss Mage spoke in the common language of Teyvat that was slightly distorted and accompanied by electronic music, and at the same time turned his gaze here.
"Have you been discovered? Why? How did you discover me?"
Zhong Mo was very confused. She thought her aura had been hidden well enough, but when she followed the Abyss Mage's gaze, she saw Qiqi standing blankly outside the bushes.
Qiqi saw Master Abyss discovering her and remembered Zhong Mo's instructions to her. She ran towards Zhong Mo and hid directly behind Zhong Mo, exposing half of her head to look at Master Abyss.
"Haha, I didn't expect there to be so many extra guests today."
Zhong Mo only felt as if a flock of crows were flying above his head at this moment.
Facing Zhong Mo and Qiqi, Master Abyss waved the staff in his hand: "Give it to me! Tear these two humans to pieces!"
"Qiqi, be careful!"
Zhong Mo went up with his sword, jumped up from the ground, and dodged the thorns that emerged from the ground. After landing, he raised his sword to block the giant ax of Qiuqiu's thugs, and created several rock spears towards Qiuqiu who was about to launch crossbows in the distance.
People projected into the past.
Several Qiuqiu thugs holding huge rock shields stood in front of the crossbow Qiuqiu people, blocking the rock spears for them, and then moved aside to let the crossbow arrows of the Qiuqiu people shoot towards Zhong Mo.
Although Chenyi could block these bows and arrows, it would also consume the water element crystals Zhong Mo stored on them. If it was not necessary, she wanted to keep the elements to deal with possible battles.
After dodging the arrow, a small bubble floated over behind him. Although it looked harmless to humans and animals, Zhong Mo, who had suffered a loss for despising his enemies, did not dare to be careless or come into contact with it.
"These monsters are obviously cooperating better. Is it because someone is commanding them? It seems that we need to deal with the Abyss Mage first."
As if he had read Zhong Mo's thoughts, Master Shui Abyss flashed back to the heights behind the Qiuqiu crossbowmen, lying in the shield, and laughed at Zhong Mo for unknown reasons.
If it stays in the air, vines and thorns will grow out of the ground, which is difficult to avoid. There are also troublesome grass element toxins on the vines. Frontal breakthroughs will be interfered by bows and arrows and water bubbles. Qiuqiu thugs will use their physical advantages to stand on the ground.
Stop Zhong Mo in a safe area wrapped in vines.
This was the first time Zhong Mo encountered such a group of monsters that cooperated with each other and had a wide variety of monsters. She was a little confused for a while.
"Should I use Guanhong? But in this case, am I too dependent on Guanhong? Although my brother told me not to do things beyond my own strength, they should not have reached my upper limit. I just need to use some method to do it.
Where’s the breakthrough?”
Zhong Mo noticed that the Qiuqiu shaman and the Qiuqiu crossbowmen stood in different positions, and the number of Qiuqiu thugs was limited. Thinking of this, she made a batch of rock guns and shot them at each shaman.
And the Qiuqiu crossbowmen fired out.
The Qiuqiu thugs in front of the crossbowmen raised their rock shields to block the rock spear, but when the Qiuqiu thugs with rock guns in front of the shaman ran over, it was too late and only blocked half of it. Fortunately, the shaman urgently summoned the vines in front of him.
Only then did he block the remaining rock spears in front of him.
But the consequence of this was that Zhong Mo, who was no longer harassed by the vines, rushed forward a lot, and also took away the life of a Qiuqiu thug with a giant axe.
Under the command of the Water Abyss Mage, the shaman ran to the side of the archers, no longer showing a fan-shaped distribution, so that the giant shield could hit all the rock spears.
But this is the result Zhong Mo wants, which means that while the giant shield is held up, their sight will be blocked and they cannot see Zhong Mo's position.
Without the interference of shamans and bows and arrows, Zhong Mo's advance was easy.
Just when Zhong Mo was about to charge with the condensed rock gun, he was suddenly pulled back by Qiqi, interrupting her best charging time.
