Boom!
The large Fire Slime's body swelled up and suddenly exploded.
The tremors caused the surrounding mountain walls to shake off a lot of gravel.
Noelle and Barbara, who didn't have time to run far, lay on the ground.
Behind them, several rising stone walls were blown beyond recognition.
"I'm finally fine."
Barbara patted her chest and stood up.
She quickly held Noelle up." Let me treat you."”
Noelle's Rock Elemental Heart-Protection Armor could not withstand many of the slime's attacks. After that, she had to use her greatsword or her body to resist.
His stamina was almost exhausted.
There were many bruises on the torn part of the knight's uniform.
Fortunately, the Slime's strongest fire attack was countered by Barbara's water element.
After the slime died, the energy of the earth vein surged into their bodies.
Barbara took up most of the time.
He leveled up from Level 5 to Level 7, which was one level higher than Noelle.
"Let's leave this place first."
Jiang Chen said.
He bent down and picked Noelle up.
He brought a few people to hide in the shadows under a mountain wall.
He asked Paimon to pick up the slime liquid that had fallen.
Dyluk looked outside.
Above the mountain path, an Ice Abyssal Mage floated over with a shield, his gaze sweeping around.
It was attracted by the sound of the Big Slime's final self-destruction.
"We have to kill it first."
Dyluk said in a low voice.
There were actually Abyssal Mages active in the Windwatch Mountains.
If they were besieged by the monsters under its control, it would be difficult for them to leave the lookout mountain area alive.
"I'll go touch it."
After the Abyssal Mage disappeared in a flash, Diluck followed suit.
He followed the remaining elements in the air and secretly tracked them.
"That is…"
Ying blinked.
It wasn't uncommon for Master Diluck to be so cautious.
"Abyssal mages are the enemies of humans. They can control monsters.”Jiang Chen explained," You have to deal with it first. Otherwise, once you are targeted, they will secretly set a trap for you."”
He looked at Noelle as he spoke.
"Are you alright?"
"It's just a small injury. With Barbara around, it won't be a big deal.”
Noelle said nonchalantly.
"We'll stay here until Dyluk returns.”Jiang Chen said.
He waited until it was almost dark.
Dyluk returned and said,""A camp that might have once belonged to an adventurer team or the West Wind Knights is occupied by that Abyssal Mage and a group of Mound Hill people. There are eleven of them, a Shaman and a Mound Hill Thug with an axe.”
"Have you scouted the road?"
"Yes, I also solved some of the roadblocks.”
"Is Noelle okay?"
Jiang Chen finally looked at the maid knight who put on her armor again.
"It's already done."
Noelle said solemnly.
"Let's hurry."
Jiang Chen said.
Dylouc had already scouted out the path ahead, so it was fine to travel at night.
With his cautiousness, it was definitely a relatively safe path.
Otherwise, they wouldn't have needed to spend so much time to explore.
Dyluk led the group to a hill, following the marks he had left during the day.
He made a hand gesture, indicating for them to lie down together.
He stuck his head out from the hillside and saw the scene below.
It was a depression.
There was a shallow pool of water, and a wild Ice Mist Flower could be seen growing on it.
Occasionally, it would spit out an icy mist that would freeze the surrounding water into a square of ice.
This thing was very valuable.
Paimon had already set his eyes on it.
The Ice Abyssal Mage was floating beside the Ice Mist Flower.
At the edge of the pool, the light of the bonfire shone on a group of sleeping Qiu Qiu people. The species was exactly the same as what Dyluk had described.
Lv18。
Jiang Chen glanced at the Abyssal Mage and his attention was on another sleeping monster.
Axe Hill Hill Thug.
Lv22。
It was more than two meters tall and was sleeping in front of an abandoned human camp. There were two Wooden Shield Mound people guarding it, and it was also dozing off.
The few of them did not dare to make a sound and wrote on the ground to communicate.
"Ying and Noelle."
Jiang Chen pointed at the two of them and wrote: "To deal with the Water-type Mound Shaman, just interrupt its chanting.”
"Barbara is hiding in the dark to support them.”
"Dyluk and I dealt with the abyssal mages and came over to provide support.”
"I understand the habits of the Qiu Qiu Saboteurs. They sleep soundly and won't join the battle immediately.”
"Understood!"
They nodded.
Jiang Chen and Dyluk reached the edge of the depression, one on the left and one on the right, and charged towards the Abyssal Mage in the middle!
The momentum it brought.
The abyssal mage who was hugging the old branch of the earth vein opened his eyes.
Its Ice Elemental Shield shook.
It was almost broken.
With a flash, the Abyssal Mage appeared on a high ground in the distance and waved the old branch of the natural staff.
"Gah ~ Gah ~ Ji!"
Its sharp voice rang out.
The sleeping Water-type Mound Hill Shaman and the surrounding Mound Hill people were all woken up.
At the same time, three icicles formed around the abyssal mage.
It shot towards the two people who were attacking.
"Reverse Flame Blade!"
The aura of the fire element pervaded Dyluk's body. He wielded the flaming greatsword and slashed at the three icicles.
It smashed into the Ice Elemental Shield.
Jiang Chen also used his old skill again. He swung his sword with " Wind Wave Slash ".
The spreading elemental reaction broke the ice shield of the abyssal mage.
The two of them had planned this beforehand. How could an Abyssal Mage react at the last minute?
In the depression.
Ying and Noelle leaned against each other, blocking the attacks of the surrounding Qiuqiu people.
They were already at a disadvantage in terms of strength, and their numbers were far inferior to the enemy.
To make matters worse, ice arrows were shot from the outside.
A layer of frost had formed on Noelle's hands and greatsword. Her movements were slow, and her Rock Elemental Shield had disappeared. She had taken a few hits.
Fortunately, the Water-type Mound Shaman had his eyes on Barbara.
Surges of water rose from the ground, chasing after Babla.
If such an attack landed on the two of them, it would be enough to instantly make them lose their combat strength.
"Can you make it back in time?"
Noelle asked.
She raised her greatsword to block the incoming stick, but her shoulder armor was hit again, and she felt her arm go numb.
"Definitely."
Ying was very confident.
