The villa's main gate was tightly closed, but a light was on in a room in the corner on the second floor.
Lin Dafei went over and knocked on the window.
It was nearly 3 a.m. when Chrona lay in bed, playing a magic handheld game console. The crisp sound of her fingers pushing the joystick could be heard even through the glass. She was muttering insulting things like, "What a weak, low-level character."
Thankfully, the world hasn't invented a "magic network," so we can only play against bots. Otherwise, Chrona would definitely get sent flying over for a real-life PvP battle and get her butt bruised and battered.
Chrona was completely engrossed in the game, her pink twin tails swaying back and forth, and she didn't hear Linda knocking on the window several times.
It wasn't until he spoke up that Chrona hurriedly put away her handheld console and opened the window.
Linda, preoccupied with Eiko, temporarily set aside Chrona and asked directly, "Where is Eiko?"
"She's gone back to Nanyan City." Chrona hid the handheld console behind her back.
"Nanyan City? It's so late already?" Linda asked in surprise.
Krona nodded: "She said she has an urgent matter and needs to go back tonight."
Linda rubbed her temples.
It seems this is definitely not a trivial matter.
"The handheld console is confiscated. Go to sleep now."
Linda was in a terrible mood. With a stern face, she grabbed the handheld console behind Chrona, stuffed it into her pocket, glanced at Chrona's aggrieved little face, and said, "I'll give it back to you in a few days."
"Oh," Chrona reluctantly crawled into bed.
After closing the window, Linda leaped off the balcony, spread her wings in the air, and sped towards Nanyan City.
He possesses flight skills, and combined with his Moon-Rank magical wings, the two unleash even greater speed.
Roughly estimated, it is five times the size of the Black Flame Horse.
If Linda keeps an eye on what's below, she'll definitely be able to catch up with Eiko.
The black hawk flapped its wings, increasing its speed even further.
The wilderness is filled with brown barren soil and some drought-resistant shrubs.
The scenery was all the same, making one drowsy.
We encountered many monsters along the way, but most of them were below level 20.
Sensing Linda's presence, they all scattered like birds and beasts.
"Father, look! It's a Moon-Rank Adventurer!"
In a caravan of traveling merchants, a little girl with pigtails excitedly raised her head, pointed to a small black dot in the sky, and said to her father.
"The rest of the journey will be relatively easy," the father said with a smile, stroking his beard.
The aura of a Moon-rank adventurer can scare away monsters, causing them to stay away for a short period of time.
This is the meaning of "it's good to rest in the shade under a big tree".
Linda's act of sheltering the convoy was unintentional.
About half an hour later.
On the brownish-gray wilderness, they finally spotted the figure of a blonde girl.
Linda's spirits lifted, and she straightened her wings, gliding like an eagle as she flew in that direction.
In the wilderness, a young girl gallops wildly on horseback.
The sound of horses' hooves and the dust they kicked up startled the slimes hiding in the bushes, who huddled together in fear, trembling.
"shelf!"
Aiko swung the reins.
A shadow seemed to have fallen over the girl's bright eyes.
"He should be fine. He's a muscle monster who can fight jungle bears hand-to-hand."
Ai Ke thought to herself.
Hearing from Frye that Rocher had been seriously injured by the demons, Eiko felt extremely uneasy and couldn't breathe a sigh of relief.
When you reach the 15th level of the secret realm, with a formidable enemy at hand, there's no time to think.
At the celebration banquet, Ai Ke didn't want her situation to spoil everyone's fun.
Moreover, the Phoenix Flower is at a critical stage, and the treacherous 20th level of the Great Mystic Realm will soon be opened. Ai Ke hopes that Linda will focus her attention on that and prioritize her own safety.
Until they received a message delivered by a white dove from the Holy Rock Adventurers.
Back at Xueyan Villa, Ai Ke immediately mounted her black flame horse and set off for Nanyan City under the stars and moon.
The letter was from Bovis, and it was brief: "Father is seriously injured in a level 20 Mythic+ dungeon. If you have time, come back and visit."
"20-Level Great Secret Realm"
Just like Frye said.
"Rocher, you're really hurt!"
Aiko gripped the reins tightly, his palms sweating profusely.
It's true that she disliked Rochelle; their relationship had been rather strained except when she was an infant.
However, it was Rocher who trained her into a Holy Mage, an excellent adventurer.
Without Rochelle's rigorous education, he could never have achieved what he has today.
Eko originally planned to wait until she advanced to the Moon Rank before returning with Linda.
But we can't wait any longer.
Given Bervis's personality, he wouldn't write to her if he were just seriously injured.
Rochelle's situation is probably quite serious.
Aiko's heart tightened; if Rochelle fell, the entire Holy Rock Adventurer Group would be impacted.
There are three major powers in Nanyan City: the Bear Roar Adventurer Group, composed of orcs, which has always been at odds with Holy Rock; and the Lores family, who are "brothers in name only," but secretly have a lot of business rivalry.
When the tree falls, the monkeys scatter; when the wall collapses, everyone pushes it down.
How could Ai Ke not understand this principle?
She didn't know what she, a mere Star Rank, could do back home. But her presence might at least cheer Roger up.
Just as Aiko's mind was filled with a jumble of thoughts.
Whoosh!
A sharp gust of wind swept in from behind.
"enemy?"
Aiko was greatly alarmed.
In addition to monsters, cultists, adventurers, and hunters may also appear in the wilderness.
The latter are similar in nature to robbers; robbing property is their duty, and if the target is a handsome man, they will suffer humiliation.
"No, we're too close, there's no time to cast a spell!"
Eko took out a sharp dagger from the bag in her leg wrappings, channeled light magic into it, and stabbed at the attacker!
