As expected, the key that the giant scorpion " dropped " was indeed the summoning key of the Scorpio Palace. After Miraj killed the Giant Scorpion, he quickly flew over to pick up the key. Excitedly, he returned the key and handed it to Chen Yu. Without hesitation, Chen Yu handed the key to Leila, who was still in his arms.
"This…is also for me?" Leila felt rather embarrassed.
This key was undoubtedly a treasure to the Star Elf High Mage. Such a treasure could only be purchased at a high price. However, Chen Yu didn't even want to give it to her directly. She felt overwhelmed by the favor, but she also felt embarrassed to talk about money.
Besides, for some reason, she didn't want to use the Hartfilia family's money now. It wasn't her money.
" We're not Star Elves," Chen Yu said generously." Naturally, only you can use this key.”
"But you... you've come all the way here, and you've worked so hard to defeat the monsters..."
"We're here to gain experience and broaden our horizons.”Calmly smiling, Chen Yu said," Mila and the others have great potential, but they're still young. Monsters of this level are just right for them to practice. Fighting them is exactly what we're looking forward to. Oh, right. By the way, I've also benefited from this.”
"Did you get any benefits as well?" Leila said in confusion.
"Yes." Since he had already decided to obtain Leila by any means necessary, she would be one of his own from now on. Hence, there was no need for him to hide certain things from her now. With a thought, he took out his Night Sky Book." This is my exclusive grimoire. I can use it to collect the 'Mana Cores' of monsters we've defeated in the wild and outside to increase my strength.”
"There's such a magic book?" Leila was shocked.
" Well, it's called the Book of Night Sky, or the Book of Darkness. To be honest, it's still a very dark book, but Vita and I are trying to solve its darkness.”Chen Yu hugged Leila as he spoke. He then flew forward unhurriedly and soon arrived above the giant scorpion. He cast an ordinary water-type spell to slightly wash away the poisonous fog in the surrounding air before opening the Book of Night. A moment later, the Book of Night quickly collected the giant scorpion's Mana Core. After flipping through the pages a few times, three more pages were added.
Now, there were 35 pages. However, there were still only six pages.
"The pages…are filled with runes?”Leila had been in his arms the entire time. She felt incredulous as she witnessed the changes in the Book of Night.
" Yes, this way, I can use most of the scorpion's skills. At the same time, if necessary, I can also forcefully consume the few pages I just wrote and use them as my temporary mana.”Nodding slightly, Chen Yu said," I'm doing this kind of collection activity while fighting monsters with Vita and the others. Therefore, you don't have to thank me for helping you forge the key. Instead, I should thank you for providing me with such suitable monsters to facilitate my collection of Magic Cores!”
"…" Leila's heart skipped a beat.
This man…was very sincere!
Ordinary people would not easily tell others that they had such a special magic tool. Even if they had obtained the " benefits " that he had mentioned just now, they would not take the initiative to tell others, let alone thank her for such a thing. If it were any other man, he would probably cry poor after getting the benefits, and pretend to be innocent after getting the benefits. He would say that he had fought so hard and paid a great price, but he did not get any benefits, so he would ask for a large amount of money compensation!
Leila couldn't help but turn her head slightly and steal a glance at the face of the man who was hugging her.
Then, she suddenly felt her heart beating violently.
She quickly turned around and looked at other unrelated places, trying her best to maintain a dignified and normal expression on her face.
" Alright, now that we've killed one monster," Miraj continued to rub his fists in high spirits." Get ready to fight the other one!"”
Things were progressing better than expected. Since no large-scale magic was used, the giant snake that had been coiled at the entrance of the cave did not interfere in the battle between Miraj and the giant scorpion. At most, it served as a deterrent. To be honest, if the snake and the scorpion joined forces, this battle would not be easy. The snake's movement speed and explosive power were not enough.(The ability to suddenly raise its body and bite a target in the air). If it worked together with the hard-shelled giant scorpion, it would increase the danger of this battle. But now, if the snake was alone, it would be much easier to deal with.
Chen Yu put Leila down. Using the remaining water from the ordinary water-type spell Chen Yu had cast, Leila summoned Aqua (Aqua's summoning condition required water). Aqua quickly got to work and raised her Aquarius. After a waterfall-like torrent of water washed over the battlefield, the air around the battlefield became much fresher.
The water also rushed into the snake cave. The giant snake at the entrance of the cave was " provoked " and quickly crawled out angrily. Chen Yu picked Leila up and quickly flew into the air again.
"…" Leila blushed.
Speaking of which, as a Starsoul High Mage, the Starsoul she summoned might be very powerful, but she herself was very weak. Therefore, the reason Chen Yu carried her up again was mainly to prevent the fast-moving giant snake from suddenly attacking her. He had been providing her with continuous protection.
Leila felt as if her heart was beating wildly again.
"Vita, Mira, the snake's fatal weakness is very clear. It's the place behind its neck!”" I'll cast a petrification spell to trap the front half of its body later. With its size and magic power, it will probably break free in ten seconds. In the ten seconds, you will attack the part of its body that I haven't petrified with the most destructive spell, one on the left and one on the right. Understand?"”
"Yes, sir!"
"Good!"
Vita and Miraj quickly replied loudly. At the same time, Vita began to switch the state of his magic device to the highest destructive state.
"Are you ready?" Chen Yu shouted a few seconds later.
"That's enough!" Vita and Miraj answered loudly in unison.
"Absolute Petrification!"
"Giganthammer!”
"Soul-Extinct!”
“呯!”“呯!”
