A few days later, Angel and Qi Li had traveled tens of thousands of miles. The direction of the Sword of Meirui finally shifted a little, but it was still very small. From the offset angle plus the distance traveled, it was easy to calculate that the distance they traveled should be just over half way. It will take some time to reach the final destination.
In the past few days, they have been attacked continuously, not to mention the beasts for the time being; there are five waves of wizard apprentices who came to snatch the sword of Meirui, only the first wave has ordinary apprentices, and every other wave is the leader of elite apprentices. , but even an elite apprentice, in terms of combat power, is still far behind the two of them.
Especially after Angel cast Nightmare, almost no one could resist.
In the past, Angel had to find an opportunity to release the illusion, but now that Qi Li was burning with ghost fire in front of him, he only needed to use the illusion in an orderly manner to establish the final victory.
This feeling of cooperation made Angel understand why there are many exploration adventures, and few are on the road alone, and most of them are in teams. Cooperate with each other, complement and help each other, and the improvement of combat power is completely geometric.
But the team is not always good.
Angel unconsciously put his mental power into the bracelet. In the corner of the bracelet, a small purple flower stood still. In the stamen, Floyd was curling up and hugging his legs, wondering what he was thinking.
Just look at Frode, no one can guarantee that all the team members are good, even if they have signed a contract, even if they have known each other for a long time, even if they are brothers and sisters of the same school, there will always be some interests that will make the team collapse, or even turn against each other.
Qi Li and he do not have a conflict of interest for the time being, but they can form a team. Who knows what will happen when there is a conflict in the future.
Although Angel enjoys this feeling of cooperation, he actually prefers to be alone on the road. Unless there is an extremely reliable teammate, for Angel, the most reliable teammate at present is probably... Toby.
Angel looked away from the purple flower, and his gaze fell on Toby, who was paralyzed in the middle of a pile of soul orbs.
Since leaving Castle Black, although Toby has been in a coma, Angel can feel that the blood in Toby's body is getting stronger and stronger day by day, and the bloodline has increased many times than before. Not only has the bloodline strength changed, but Toby's appearance has also changed a lot. His body is a full circle. It used to be a slap bird, but now it is the size of a young eagle.
The feathers on its body are also slowly discoloring, from gray-white before, gradually moving closer to the rosy red.
If Toby is now placed in front of old friends such as Sairum, it is estimated that no one will know.
And these changes occurred in a short period of time, and even the size of the body increased, and the discoloration of the feathers occurred in the past two days. According to Angel's inference, Toby should be not far from the end of the first transformation. When the transformation is completed, Toby will wake up after thinking about it.
Therefore, in the past two days when Angel was not fighting, he was on the road while paying attention to Toby's changes.
Just when Angel was thinking about deserting, the black cat Luna suddenly meowed a few times.
Hearing Luna's call, both Angel and Qi Li's expressions immediately became serious.
He and Qi Li wanted to speed up their journey, so they handed the gray scale obtained from Yixiu to Luna, who would be in charge of supervising the scales within a hundred miles at all times.
Luna is very human, and Angel even thinks that Luna is much higher than Qi Li in terms of emotional intelligence. Therefore, Luna will judge by herself what the scales are sensing, whether it is a scorpion or a snatcher.
Once it starts calling, it basically means there is a situation.
Qi Li took the scales and quickly communicated with Luna. Angel was watching, every time he saw a person speaking human language, a cat speaking cat language, and communicating in depth, Angel thought it was funny, can they really understand each other's words
While Angel thought it was funny, he didn't think about it. This is basically the same situation when he communicated with Toby.
After a while, Qi Li raised her head and said to Angel: "Someone is approaching us, but Luna speculates that it may not be for snatch."
"It's not for snatch, what is that for?" Angel was at a loss.
Qi Li expressionlessly spit out four words: "Cause the water to the east."
Angel took the scales, and as soon as he felt it slightly, he found the tricky part. A few dozen miles away, a scale was rapidly approaching their position, but at the same time, ten miles behind the scale, there was another sword of beauty chasing after the scale.
Luna called out a few more times.
Qi Li: "Luna said that no matter how we change directions along the way, the target of that scale is still us. It can be seen that the other party locked our position, and it is estimated that he wants to kill the hatred of the sword of Meirui behind him. , transferred to us. Of course, it is also possible that it is not a disaster, but a game, but the probability is very small. "
Angel threw the scales of his heart back to Luna, who bit her mouth and swallowed it into her stomach.
Qi Li looked at Angel: "What do you say now, fight?"
In fact, there is also the option of not fighting. For example, there should be no scales on the sword of Meirui, so the position of the two of them cannot be detected. They only need Angel's soul out of the body, speed up, and run out of the scale detection range to avoid this battle.
But Angel could see it clearly. Although Qi Li was asking him a question, her expression of implied anger had already told Angel that she already had the answer in her heart.
Angel shrugged helplessly: "Okay."
The corners of Qi Li's mouth evoked a bloodthirsty smile, and the fighting spirit surged up all over her body.
They continued to walk towards the southeast unhurriedly, while Luna called from time to time to report the other party's location.
A few minutes later, without Luna taking the initiative to report the location, they had already seen the dim fire in the distance, and the fire was rapidly approaching them.
"Come on." After Qi Li's voice fell, she raised her hand-held oil lamp full of fighting intent, and dark white cold fires had already burst out.
Luna jumped behind Angel and bit the hem of his clothes. In the past two days, they encountered encounters in a row. Qi Li was on the front line frantically using offense instead of defense. Luna used to dig a bunker to hide herself, so as not to harm Chiyu. Now it can see clearly that it is actually the safest to stay by Angel's side, not to mention that Angel is only using illusions in the back, and is not at the forefront of the battle; just the degree of Angel's own pity for the body cannot be tolerated. hurt yourself.
Angel seemed to be standing lazily behind Qi Li, but he had already started to prepare a whole set of defense methods. In the dark currents, there were various illusion nodes densely covered.
As the flames rushed, and with Qi Li's series of laughter, she rushed forward, surrounded by flames, blocking all the opponent's routes.
At the same time, the other party also saw Qi Li's figure, and there was a look of horror in his eyes, and he actually encountered a tough stubble again!
"Die!" The flames around Qi Li continued to burn as they rushed towards the opponent.
Seeing that she was about to die in a sea of fire, her expression was full of despair.
At this moment of life and death, she suddenly felt the water flowing behind her, and then her body was suddenly pulled to the other side. A golden star twinkled in front of her eyes, and she appeared behind Qi Li.
"Angol? What are you doing?" Qi Li turned her head suddenly to look at Angel. Although she didn't see the situation clearly, only Angel was the one who could save people at this time!
"Angol? Is it Angelpat?" There was a burst of surprise in her eyes, and she turned to look at her person. Although the bottom of the sea was dark and the fire was dim, she could clearly see Angel's face: "It's really Brother Angel?! That's great!"
Seeing the name of the person who came to Anger, and the fact that Anger took the initiative to save the person, Qi Li also responded: "Do you know her?"
With a worried face, Angel pushed away the little girl who kept wanting to wrap his arms around him: "Shan, don't you want to see the big man?"
Shan originally wanted to seize the opportunity to get close to Angel, but when she heard Angel's words, she immediately remembered the big man under the seat, Gan Ke, when she was attacked by Qi Li just now.
She looked back, but saw that Gan Ke's whole body was burning with flames, and half of his body was frozen.
"Not good, Gan Ke!" Shan rushed over.
Qi Li frowned slightly and waved her hand to remove the cold fire from Gan Ke's body. Then it fell to Angel's side.
"Her name is Shan, and she's also an apprentice in the Savage Cave. She has a relationship with me." Angel explained.
"It's not enough to erase the fact that she has caused misfortune." Qi Li said coldly.
"I understand." Angel sighed slightly. He was indeed unfamiliar with Shan, but Shan and Nausicaa seemed to have a good relationship, and saving her was just an effort.
"Don't you still want to stop her pursuers?" Qi Li took it without fear.
Angel was also thinking about this problem. He saved Shan because of a one-sided relationship and for Nausicaa's sake, but helping her to send the pursuers was obviously beyond the limit of their relationship. .
Just then, Shan swam over, riding a scarred Ganke. There was a look of anxiety on her face, and she hesitated a little: "Angol, Nausicaa and Shiliu are in danger, can you save them!"
Shan naturally knew that this request was excessive, but she had no one else to ask for help at the moment, so she could only tentatively ask Angel for help.
However, Shan apparently underestimated Nausicaa's relationship with Angel.
Originally, Angel was still thinking about how to send Shan away, but when he heard the news, he couldn't care about anything else, and immediately asked, "What happened to Nausicaa, where is he now?"
"I don't know her location. I was separated from her when I ran away. By the way, Shiliu knows! Shiliu left his blood on Nausicaa. When we entered the Garden of Purification, it was Shiliuxun. came to us with the smell of blood."
Angel frowned: "Where is Shiliu?"
"Yujin Palace, when Shiliu sent me and Nausicaa away, they were trapped in Yujin Palace by those two witches."
Qi Li stood aside, watching Angel still inquire about the location of the Yujin Palace, a faint sneer appeared at the corner of her mouth. It seemed that Angel was going to save Nausicaa.
What a ridiculous benevolence. Qi Li secretly thought, if Angel really wanted to go, would she want to go with him? She was deeply unwilling, but when she thought of the instructor's instructions, she hesitated.
According to Angel's strength, one person should be fine, right
When Angel asked about the location of Yujin Palace, he still had doubts on his face. He still didn't know what happened to them: "Shan, what the hell is going on?"
"It's Jetbo! Jetbo was injured by Shiliu. He didn't know what means he used and hired a lot of people to come to stop us..."
Before Shan's words were finished, Qi Li's face suddenly turned extremely dark. He rushed to Shan and pinched her collar:
"You, say, who?"
