7 days later, outside the twin tree area.
"Be careful, be sure to be careful." Du Yu said seriously, holding the Firefly Torch in his right hand.
Xiao Youying looked at Du Yu aggrievedly, and the flame on the torch dimmed a little.
"Believe in yourself! Let's try it again!" Du Yu quickly gathered a wick cannon with his left hand.
The candle wick cannon is the size of a palm and is very exquisite.
It was originally light red and translucent, but under Du Yu's vigorous urging, layers of fire aura were rendered on the translucent shell.
In a short period of time, the candle wick cannon had turned into a fiery red sphere, and the small flame suspended in it could no longer be seen.
Does this seem like adding more defense to the wick cannon's shell
Du Yu was very careful. He gently placed the candle wick cannon into Xiao Youying's torch head, as if he was "loading a cannonball".
Du Yu took a deep breath, calmed down, slowly raised the Youying torch, and pointed it at the sky: "Youying Blow!"
Xiao Youying closed her big eyes tightly, and a column of wind immediately shot out!
What's weird is that the flame lines that should have been wrapped around the wind column are almost gone at this moment!
Phew~
The wick cannon embedded in the torch head was immediately pushed out by the wind column.
The candle wick cannon was wrapped in a shell of rich fire aura, which kept getting thinner in the strong wind, but it did not explode immediately.
Du Yu tried his best to reinforce his Demon Breath battle robe and had already prepared himself for being blown away. However, when he saw the Candlewick Cannon being fired, his face suddenly lit up with joy!
"Haha, it worked!" Du Yu felt extremely happy. After so many days of hard practice, he finally got results!
Human-pet combination skills!
Phantom Firefly Blow + Candlewick Cannon = Phantom Firefly Salute!
Du Yu also wanted to use the demon soldier bow to launch the cannonballs, but it was a bit difficult to operate. In comparison, the push of the "egg tube staff" was more reliable.
"Ying!" On the lawn not far away, a fireball gathered in front of Xiaoyan's face and shot out high.
The fireball was 27cm in diameter, which was quite impressive. The fireball's force and speed were incredible, and it hit the candle wick cannon with great precision, seemingly engulfing it.
“Boom…”
Two shells, one large and one small, collided with each other with a loud bang.
Waves of energy spread out, whether it was flames, fire demon breath or fire spiritual energy, they all ignited the air, and only a mushroom cloud was missing!
"Nice!" Du Yu patted the torch head and couldn't help but kiss the "ice cream cone".
Little Firefly suddenly no longer felt aggrieved. Although it had no mouth, it did not interfere with its pair of smiling eyes. The fluorescent green flame on the torch head burst into high flames again, and it was very happy.
Little Youying is very simple. Since she was born, there are two things that make her happiest.
One thing was to suffocate Du Yu to death, making him nauseous.
Another thing is to get praise from the master. The master's praise and joy are transmitted to Xiao Youying through the contract, which also makes it very happy.
To be honest, if Du Yu could praise and vomit at the same time, Xiao Youying would probably be so happy that she would die on the spot...
"嘤~" A fiery red figure attacked, and Du Yu hurriedly stretched out a hand and hugged the little fox who also came to ask for reward.
Raising a demon pet is a very delicate job, and you have to always keep it fair.
What to do, honey~
Looking at the big tail that was close to his mouth, Du Yu gently kissed it.
"Hmm~" The little fox whimpered happily, and its other tail reached Du Yu's mouth again.
Du Yu lowered his head, looking at Xiao Yan with both anger and amusement: "You only have two tails now, I can still kiss you, but what will I do when you have 6 or 7 tails in the future?"
"Bing!"
"Huh? Serial Fire Tail? You can just slap me in the mouth?"
Following the message conveyed in the contract, Du Yu was completely shocked. Concubine Yan was going to rebel
"Hmm~"
Du Yu: "It is indeed very fast, but is it really a question of whether it is fast or not..."
"Hmm~" Xiao Yan gently touched Du Yu's lips with the tip of her big tail, and then jumped onto his shoulder.
Du Yu smacked his lips, pieced together a candlewick cannon in his hand, and put it into the "barrel" of the Firefly Torch.
We’ll talk about the future later. Let’s just listen to the noise first to celebrate the birth of the combo skill!
"Firefly Salute!"
Pushed by a column of wind, the candle wick cannon was shot into the sky again.
This time, without Xiaoyan's sparks and explosion, the candle wick cannon was like a mortar shell, drawing a parabola in the air and landing far behind a big tree.
"Bang!" Grass debris flew everywhere and a circle of air wave spread out.
Compared to the output, the knockback effect of the candlewick cannon is obviously more eye-catching.
Du Yu nodded with satisfaction. Skills really require one to calm down and practice diligently!
Most of the magic skills learned by magic pets can control their output intensity.
Through constant practice, Du Yu learned how to strengthen the shell defense of the candlewick cannon.
At the same time, Xiao Youying also learned to reduce the "crushing" intensity of the wind and fire column while ensuring the blowing and pushing strength of the wind and fire column.
Xiaoyan is making rapid progress, the diameter of her fireball is already close to 27.5cm!
You should know that a fireball with a diameter of 30cm is the highest output intensity of the third level, Glory Gold level.
And Xiao Yan is currently only at the Earth Level, Great Mastery Stage, but has an output strength that exceeds her strength level, a colorful demon pet + an ancient evolution chain... ... Two words: comfortable!
While patiently waiting for Lin Shiwei to replenish her spiritual energy, Du Yu not only trained Xiao Yan in Spark Splash, but also trained her in several other magic skills.
The results were pretty good. Whether it was the magic skill Chain Fire Tails or the magic skill Fire Cloud Tail that spread flames and concealed the body, Xiao Yan had made some progress in their use.
Only the core magic skill, Lure Shadow Fox, has not made much progress.
The two fire fox phantoms summoned by Xiaoyan still ran mechanically, rushing forward without even turning.
On the contrary, Xiaoyan has learned to cooperate with the illusion, and his imitation skills are quite impressive.
Now, if three little foxes run side by side, ordinary people really can't tell them apart...
"Hmm~"
Du Yu turned his head and looked behind him. Against the backdrop of the huge twin trees in the distance, he saw a tall figure: "Are you ready?"
"I tried my best and transformed everything into wind spirit energy." Lin Shiwei nodded, with a hint of apology in her words, "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for so long."
"I'm training too. Besides, there's not enough spiritual energy in the world. You can't go any faster even if you want to." Du Yu smiled and waved his hand, "Let's go!"
Lin Shiwei walked quickly forward and walked side by side with Du Yu: "Thank you, Du Yu, whether it succeeds or not, thank you for helping me..."
Before he finished speaking, Du Yu slapped Lin Shiwei on the shoulder and said, "You are too polite, Third Sister!
Of course the stronger you are, the better. You are my... uh, my big meat shield. No matter what dungeon I go to in the future, you must be there to hold the fort, right?"
Lin Shiwei: “…”
Du Yu accidentally let the cat out of the bag, and added quietly: "There's still a lot of time to come."
Lin Shiwei looked at Du Yu with a strange expression, "King?"
Du Yu smiled and said, "You're too polite. Just call me Second Brother."
Lin Shiwei rolled her eyes. Am I calling you? This is a question, okay
However, Du Yu's last sentence touched Lin Shiwei's heart. Indeed, there is still a long way to go...
The two walked quietly in the forest. After a few minutes, Lin Shiwei broke the silence: "After meeting the Dust Spirit Deer tribe, I have to go home."
"Okay." Du Yu nodded. Including the days at the Mountain Fire Knife training camp, the girl hadn't been home for almost a month.
Unlike me, most people in the world have families and parents.
Lin Shiwei asked, "Where are you going? Do you want to go back with me?"
"Ah?" Du Yu was stunned for a moment, "What's the matter?"
"It's nothing, I just want to invite you to be my guest. I have nothing to do at home, but I've been away for too long, so I want to go back to see my mother and stay with her for a few days." Lin Shiwei explained.
"I won't bother you."
Lin Shiwei didn't force it, but just said: "Then I'll leave the car to you, it will be more convenient for you to go anywhere."
Du Yu shook his head repeatedly: "No, I don't know how to drive, I don't have a license."
Lin Shiwei whispered, "It's okay, there's a cover."
Du Yu: “…”
"Third sister." Du Yu probably understood Lin Shiwei's thoughts. He smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about me. Before I met you, wasn't I living well?"
Lin Shiwei lowered her head and smiled: "Yeah, that's right."
"Don't worry, I have the book house ring here, so I can eat, drink and live for free... How about this, you can take me back to Master Qing's house later."
It’s been a week and I don’t know if Teacher Qing has returned. I’ll go back and check on him first, and then I can get a good night’s sleep.
"Yeah, okay."
The two chatted as they crossed the mountains and forests and finally arrived at a familiar canyon.
It’s a pity that the two seemed to have come at the wrong time. The Dust Spirit Deer tribe should have gone out to play together and did not find any trace of the Fairy Deer.
The two men were familiar with the route and headed west along the cliff. They jumped over the canyon at the nearest point and found the big tree where Du Yu had practiced his short blade skills.
The two waited until the afternoon, until the sun set, and finally saw the figures of a few Dust Spirit Deer returning.
"Here I am!" Du Yu stood up quickly, holding onto the large tree covered with scratches. "Here, I am here!"
The Dust Spirit Deer was watching the direction of its hometown from afar, extremely alert. After confirming that it was Du Yu, it trotted over with confidence.
"We meet again." Du Yu lit a small flame in his hand and waved it at the Dust Spirit Deer.
In an instant, the group of fairy deer forgot their fear. They ran faster than each other, and the leader accidentally knocked Du Yu to the ground.
"Oh~" Du Yu felt like he was drowned by the fairy deer and said quickly, "Pay attention to your identities, you are fairy deer, be more reserved!"
"Nai~"
"Nai!" The melodious deer calls were heard, and the fire spirit was sucked away bit by bit. Du Yu could no longer see anything, and the surroundings were filled with white mist...
Du Yu was quickly sucked dry, and the flames on his fingertips flickered, as if a gust of wind could blow them out.
"Nai~"
"Nai~~~" Du Yu, lying on his back on the ground, felt the deer heads gently pressing against his head, as if they wanted more.
"It's gone, it's really gone..."
"Nai." The Dust Spirit Deer waited for a while and found that Du Yu was really drained dry. They regained their former noble elegance, raised their heads high, stepped lightly on their hooves, and slowly left.
As the white mist dissipated, only Du Yu was left lying alone on the ground, with an expression that said "I knew it would be like this."
This bunch of scumbag deer!
Du Yu supported himself on the ground with one hand and sat up.
A few meters in front of him were two Dust Spirit Deer that were much larger than the rest of their tribe. One was tall and majestic, with antlers covered in white flowers.
One is slightly slimmer, and the flowers on its antlers sparkle with fantastic colors.
Du Yu waved his hand: "Xiao Bai is practicing with my master and didn't come back this time."
"Da, da."
The tall and slender female deer took two steps forward, lowered her head, and gently touched Du Yu's forehead.
It was unclear whether she was apologizing for her tribe members' behavior or reminding Du Yu to take good care of her children.
The clan leader and his wife did not have any other reaction. Apparently, when Xiaobai returned home last time, they had already explained her contract situation to her parents.
"Come, Shiwei, come here." Du Yu rubbed the deer's head with one hand, gently stroking her soft fur, and waved to Lin Shiwei.
Perhaps because they were familiar with each other, the clan leader and his wife just watched Lin Shiwei come over and did not step back.
Then, the female deer seemed to notice something, and slowly lowered its head and sniffed the left side of the girl's chest.
"Nai?"
Lin Shiwei raised a finger, and a faint wind aura swirled out.
The tall doe took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and experienced it carefully.
When the Dust Spirit Deer herd that had just walked away saw this scene, they immediately turned around and walked back.
But this time, the Dust Spirit Deer were not so presumptuous.
Perhaps out of distrust, or some other factor, they just surrounded Lin Shiwei, sniffing cautiously.
"Hey, don't step on me." Du Yu held his head and crawled out, but Chen Linglu didn't want to pay attention to him.
Yes! That’s the taste!
The calls of the Dust Spirit Deer became more and more beautiful, one after another.
Before, when Du Yu provided the fire aura, the clan leader and his wife allowed the tribesmen to taste it, and they did not participate.
Faced with the wind spiritual energy, even the two of them could not resist and immediately moved forward.
"Slow down, slow down." Lin Shiwei said softly, her eyes rarely gentle.
She swirled her right index finger and reached out with her left hand, trying to touch the deer head in front of her face.
But just as she reached out her hand, the huge deer head retracted slightly, looking at Lin Shiwei with vigilant eyes.
Lin Shiwei opened her mouth but ultimately said nothing.
The girl's face looked a little gloomy, and she silently released the wind spirit energy, never trying to touch the beautiful deer head again.
After a while, the spiritual energy in Lin Shiwei's body was also drained.
She practiced for a whole week and prepared everything with all her heart and soul, but she only had contact with the Dust Spirit Deer for a short twenty seconds.
And such contact is only one-sided, which seems a bit humble no matter how you look at it.
Chen Linglu looked at her fingertips with lingering affection, but was still wary of her.
Slowly, the herd of deer dispersed, leaving only Lin Shiwei standing there silently.
"Shi Wei."
"Um?"
"Being alert to everything is their nature. Don't think too much about it." Du Yu walked over and put his arm around the girl's shoulders while comforting her softly.
Du Yu raised his head and looked at the Dust Spirit Deer tribe leader and his wife who had not left: "We are together, she also has wind spirit energy, are your tribesmen willing to go with us
Like Xiaobai, go see the outside world. "
The tall Dust Spirit Deer couple did not respond, nor did they move. They just looked quietly at the two humans below.
Feeling the hand on her shoulder tightly gripping her, Lin Shiwei raised her head with a sincere look in her eyes: "I will definitely treat your people well, for sure."
The tall and majestic chief still did not respond, but the slender doe turned her head and looked behind her: "Nai~~~"
Not knowing what the long cry meant, the Dust Spirit Deer all took a step back.
Only one stood there without moving.
Lin Shiwei's mood was like riding a roller coaster. Looking at the tall Dust Spirit Deer with its head held high in the distance, a glimmer of hope rose in her eyes:
“I seem to recognize it.”
"Do you know him?"
"Well, it... carried me."
