The fire-type battle aura turned a faint orange-red, with a glimmer of starlight flashing by unintentionally.
In the original game's storyline, in order to protect her teammates, Lia awakens the Starfire Battle Aura, embarking on a monstrous journey of growth.
He led Xueyan all the way, making them one of the top adventure groups in Cangqing Province.
But that will be more than ten years from now.
At this moment, Leah can only use Starfire Battle Qi instinctively and is unable to control it.
"Linda, where are you going!"
Nacho's main target is Linda.
"Take this sword!"
Lia used her "Flame Dance" move to sweep around the area, forcing Nacho back.
Nacho's eyebrows twitched with rage: "Go! Let's take down this brat Xueyan first!"
The four were locked in combat, their fighting spirit erupting and creating a series of explosions.
The trees were destroyed as if they were made of paper. The fire-type battle qi ignited the trees, turning them into towering mountain fires that burned fiercely in the darkness.
...
...
Linda sprinted forward with all her might, the wind whistling in her ears, her lungs throbbing with pain.
It felt like a dream come true, back to the sports meet of my youth, running until I was breathless.
The thought that the person protecting him was actually that Lia made him feel like he had eaten a piece of chocolate that smelled like poop—sweet yet stinky.
The 'character' that I've painstakingly cultivated is finally complete and ready to be deployed on the battlefield.
Linda knew this wasn't a game, but she felt a similar sense of accomplishment as when playing a game.
The sounds of battle behind them grew fainter and fainter; looking back, they could only vaguely see a few sparks.
"The best way to repay Leah is to successfully obtain the forest treasure and share some with her."
Linda took a deep breath and looked ahead.
We are currently in the middle level of Dragon Forest. If we run back, we might run into members of other sects. It's better to go forward and proceed according to the original plan.
Enter the depths through the tunnels to reach the lair of the Senlong and steal its treasure!
This task carries some risk; without Lulu's keen sense of smell, Linda might not be able to detect when the Senlong returns to its nest.
If you were to walk out of the cave carrying the treasure and run into Senlong, it wouldn't be something that could be explained away with a simple "I'll wipe the treasure clean for you and put it back."
Logically speaking, slinking back home is the best option.
The wildfire is the best signal; the Adventurers' Guild will soon receive news of the anomaly in Dragon Forest and send an official adventure team to provide assistance.
I should stay quietly in the warm villa and wait for good news from Leah and the others.
This is the most rational and safest approach.
But Linda's legs wouldn't stop.
How could he possibly go back to enjoy a warm fireplace and tea when everyone else was suffering in the perilous Dragon Forest?
Only by obtaining the treasures of the Forest Dragon can Linda advance to the Star Rank in the shortest time and arm the entire squad.
If all the members of the Phoenix Flower were at the Star Rank, it would be Herus and his group who would be running for their lives today.
"The only way forward is to move forward."
Linda made up her mind that she had to steal Senlong's lair clean and bring it back to share with the girls.
We are getting closer and closer to the tunnel entrance.
"Ahead, give chase!"
Suddenly, a sharp shout rang out from behind.
I turned my head to look.
Under the moonlight, two small black dots were rapidly approaching this side.
That voice...was it Nacho?
Leah was killed?
Linda felt a tightness in her chest.
A surge of intense anger nearly overwhelmed his reason.
But Nacho, whether out of stupidity or a desire to show off, laughed loudly:
"That red-haired dwarf has been wounded and escaped. Linda, now no one can protect you! Stand still and die!"
"That's typical trash-talking villain talk. Who's going to stand there and wait for you to come over?"
Linda felt relieved to hear that Leah's life was not in danger, and even had time to joke.
That makes sense when you think about it.
How could Leah, who was active until the late game, be so easily defeated?
Those who survive the most dangerous situations are often the fools.
"go!"
Linda lashed out with her Dark Whip, pulling down a row of large trees behind her.
A large amount of smoke and dust was raised, obstructing Nacho's view.
"Awoooooo!"
Nacho crashed headfirst into a large tree, panting heavily as he looked around.
Linda could not be found.
"He must be hiding around here. Search him!"
...
Ta-da.
Ta-da.
Footsteps sounded above Linda's head.
He hid below the tunnel, held his breath, and imagined himself as a harmless blade of grass, photosynthesizing under the sun.
—【Self-created *Turtle Breathing Technique】.
I don't know if it will work, but I'll try it and see.
After pulling down the big tree, there was too much time, and Linda only had time to cover the tunnel entrance with a rock she found nearby.
Nacho and another Star Rank 1 were loitering nearby.
Like a cat catching a mouse.
Linda remained motionless until the footsteps outside faded into the distance, then she let out a long sigh.
He lay on the ground and crawled into the tunnel, which was about the size of a water bucket.
Take out the fluorescent tube, press the switch, and the dark tunnel will immediately be lit up.
The air was thin here, and Linda felt a stinging pain in her lungs from running too hard.
The tenth level of the Great Secret Realm is scorching hot during the day, but extremely cold at night. The icy air feels like a cactus churning inside your lungs, and Linda grimaces as he puts on the Pain Mask.
'Thinking about it this way, I admire Lulu even more. How can she trigger her bloodlust state by self-harming without batting an eye?'
Linda has a strong will, but that doesn't mean he can't feel the pain in his head.
On the contrary, because he was quite intelligent, he also felt pain more acutely.
