Qin Xiao thought about it and decided not to withdraw the funds for the time being, but to consider it further.
If I were to draw this again, I wonder what I would get?
Regaining his composure, Qin Xiao looked at Slovic, who was still kneeling on the ground. Slovic was looking up at Qin Xiao with a hint of shyness in his expression.
"Ahem, get up, tidy up, we'll camp here tonight."
Slovic stood up from the ground, his face flushed, and followed behind Qin Xiao, unable to bring himself to call him "master."
Qin Xiao didn't mind. There's a first time for everything. Once you've done it the first time, it will be natural to do it again.
Ye Qingya followed Qin Xiao, "Little Qin, how was it? How was the princess?"
Qin Xiao coughed twice, looking at Ye Qingya with a hint of helplessness, "Mayor, what are you saying?"
Ye Qingya pouted, "Tsk, I also wanted to re-contract a beast. I'm so envious of you, Xiao Qin. You've earned resources and won the heart of a beauty."
"Um, how about I find you a capable male to contract with, Mayor?"
Ye Qingya's face suddenly turned red, and she reached out and punched his shoulder. "What are you saying? I don't want it. If it weren't for the fact that Slovic's attributes don't match my talent, I would have taken it from you just now. I want the fire-type beast."
Qin Xiao seemed to be deep in thought. It seemed that Ye Qingya was following the same path as her daughter. Both mother and daughter were pursuing the same path of combining one type of attribute with their talents.
This thing is neither good nor bad; its combat power is quite good, but its shortcomings are rather obvious in certain aspects.
"Alright, we'll keep an eye out for them later and try out a few fire-type Pokémon with good potential."
Qin Xiao casually agreed, saying that the Endless Forest was so vast that it shouldn't be a problem.
As they were talking, Ilya and Bai Ling had already set up the room and tent.
However, this time Ilya did build two rock houses, unlike the previous days when everyone lived in one house.
Qin Xiao looked at Ilya curiously, "Why are there two rooms today?"
Ilya smiled and gestured towards the house, "Well, it was all Ling'er's request. Master, you can ask her yourself."
ah? ! !
Qin Xiao was stunned. Behind him, Ye Qingya had a strange expression, tinged with curiosity.
"Ahem, Mayor, get some rest. See you tomorrow."
After saying that, Qin Xiao couldn't stand the other person's teasing gaze any longer and quickly went inside.
Ye Qingya waved her hand from behind, "See you tomorrow. I hope you'll still have the energy to set off tomorrow."
Ilya smiled slightly. "Then, Mayor, I won't bother you any longer."
After speaking, Ilya looked at the hesitant Slovic and said, "Let's go."
Slovic's body trembled, and her slightly dark skin even showed a blush.
"I, I, then, still..."
"Let's go."
Ilya urged him again, and Slovich looked at the dark door of the room and swallowed.
Inside the room, Qin Xiao looked around in surprise. The rock-made bathroom was filled with water, and Bai Ling was wearing strange pieces of cloth that she had found somewhere.
"Ling'er, what are you up to?"
Bai Ling was absentmindedly paddling in the water by the bathtub when she heard Qin Xiao's words and suddenly came back to her senses.
"Master, you've come!"
As she spoke, she immediately stood up and leaned closer, almost falling over due to her unbalanced weight.
Qin Xiao put on a stern face, intending to refuse, mainly because it was in the middle of nowhere, and Ilya was also there. Normally, one person was already enough to handle, let alone two...
Slovic witnessed the entire night's rain pattering on the banana leaves.
The next day, Ye Qingya patrolled around the campsite, stretching her body.
After circling around for a long time, I returned to the camp and sighed as I looked at the still-closed stone door.
Just then, the door opened, and Slovic walked out looking tired. He was startled when he saw Ye Qingya standing at the door.
Both women were somewhat awkward. "Lady Ye Qingya, you, you, good morning."
Slovic stammered.
Ye Qingya looked at her with amusement, then sized her up again. "Huh, you didn't participate?"
Slovic's expression froze. "I, I, I went to bed early last night."
Before she could continue speaking, Bai Ling and Ilya walked out looking refreshed, with Ling'er skipping ahead.
Good morning, Mayor.
Ye Qingya looked at them and smiled. "Hello to you all. So, how about Xiao Qin? Is he still able to walk?"
"Sure, why not? Let's go, let's go."
Qin Xiao emerged from behind the two women, looking utterly exhausted.
There are no major physical problems, after all, life goes on, but this thing can affect the mind and spirit, leaving one feeling somewhat mentally fatigued.
As they were talking, Qin Xiao climbed onto Ilya's back, and Bai Ling jumped into his arms.
The two rock houses were destroyed under Ilya's control, and Ye Qingya summoned her beetle.
"Xiao Qi, look at the map."
Slovic was taken aback, and quickly took out a map. Under Ye Qingya's surprised gaze, his ears turned visibly red.
Yesterday she was Princess, and today she's Xiao Qi. It's quite intriguing.
"Master, Master, there is a huge freshwater lake ahead, where birds and aquatic creatures are abundant."
If you go right, there is a region called Earth Flame, where there are many fire and earth-type monsters, and the environment is quite harsh.
To the left is a swamp, teeming with poisonous miasma and teeming with poisonous and dark-elemental creatures, but the environment isn't very suitable for exploration.
After speaking, Slovic looked at Qin Xiao, who frowned in thought.
"Mayor, you're planning to contract another fire-type beast, right? I'm also looking to collect some fire-type spirit crystals. How about we head to the right-hand region?"
Ye Qingya had no objections. "Sure, let's see if we can capture a decent-looking beast. After all, not everyone is as outstanding as Prince Slovic."
At the end, he jokingly mentioned Slovic, but Qin Xiao kept his eyes down and pretended not to hear it.
Qin Xiao thought to himself, "I didn't realize that Mayor Ye Qingya's personality has become so awful."
Soon, Slovic sat behind Qin Xiao and hugged him, while Bai Ling sat in front of him, lying in Qin Xiao's arms.
The group headed towards the Earth Flame area on the right.
On the way, Qin Xiao and Slovic learned about the royal family's situation and the cult's intelligence.
After all, I really didn't have time to think about these things last night.
Slovic rallied and explained the current situation.
Currently, the leader of the Church of the Lost Spirits is at the Diamond rank, the vice-leader is suspected to be at the Diamond rank, and the remaining ten bishops are all at the Platinum rank, having received blessings from an evil god.
The ranks vary, but they cannot be considered as standard Platinum-rank combat power.
Qin Xiao nodded. That's true. The two he killed yesterday had special abilities, making them much harder to deal with than ordinary Platinum-level opponents.
On the royal side, only the Swan Clan's grandmother is clearly a Diamond rank member, while the various dukes and other high-ranking members below her have seven or eight Platinum rank members.
It can be said that we are currently in a defensive retreat against the cult's power. If it weren't for special equipment such as the Spirit Crystal Crossbow, we would probably have been overthrown by the cult long ago.
However, the current situation is also very tense. Almost all combat forces above the Platinum rank dare not leave the city, otherwise they will most likely be surrounded and killed.
