The Midnight Owl

Chapter 83: Epiphytic flower

Views:

Five people, one NPC, and a cluster of epiphytes.

The night was sinking like water, and evil spirits could come at any time, leaving little time for the friends to plan tactics.

"We searched the whole village, and there are no other items related to the main line. We can basically confirm that this epiphyte is a love line item." Xu Wang took out a pen and paper from his backpack and handed it to his military adviser, "But how to use it, only Guess."

Wu Sheng, who took over the pen and paper, listed four items on it: "Active attack, passive defense, going directly to the main storyline, delayed effect, these are the four directions I can think of for the time being."

"Going directly to the main storyline is the best." Kuang Jinxin has already begun to imagine a bright future that saves worry and effort.

"It's not feasible," Xu Wang didn't want to attack him, but mainly based on the experience of his colleagues, "Li Zijin and the others have taken the yellow talisman, but they still have to manually exorcise the ghosts."

"Active attack and passive defense are fine. As long as it is fireproof, I don't want to be burned again..." Qian Ai is not very demanding, just a little sense of security.

"What is the delayed effect?" Chi Yingxue reached out and tapped the fourth item on the white paper.

"Delay, it will take effect again." Wu Sheng explained.

"..." Chi Yingxue frowned in confusion, not sure whether she heard the explanation just now or not.

Qian Ai and Kuang Jinxin invariably greeted their new teammates with distressed eyes.

"We first use our own abilities to resist the evil spirits, and the props will be activated only after we persist for as long as we can." Xu Wang interjected to help his military advisor narrate.

Chi Yingxue was stunned, the joy in his heart dispelled the faint shadow of "Wu-style explanation": "I like this direction."

Go straight to the main storyline? So boring.

The unconcealed expectation gave him a crack in his lasting and warm temperament.

In that crack, Xu Wang caught the belligerent light.

In a competitive world, with a militant, is it more pros or cons? Xu Wang couldn't tell. But after thinking about it, it seems that my team has gone all the way down, not relying on profit and avoiding harm, but mainly depends on how you feel, if you feel it, it doesn't matter whether you suffer together or have fun together, it seems to be fine.

Not very good, they seem to be running the group soul in the way of falling in love-Captain Xu frowned and fell into deep anxiety.

Military division Wu continued to deploy on the paper: "According to the four possible forms of epiphyte, we set four plans for A, B, C, and D..."

Qian Ai and Kuang Jinxin: "Yes."

Wu Junshi drew arrow branches under each plan: "There may be accidents in the plan, and I also made four follow-up patches of Wujigengxin..."

Qian Ai and Kuang Jinxin: "Okay."

After a few back and forth, a piece of paper has been deployed by the military division Wu, and a very complete mind map is a frame, an arrow, a wire, and a key symbol.

Qian Ai and Kuang Jinxin took over the tactical map, read it carefully, memorized it carefully, and occasionally asked questions, such as "how should I stand in this plan C?" "Do these four patches have to correspond to the plan one by one?"

Chi Yingxue, who silently listened to the whole process: "..."

Kuang Jinxin had a good grasp of the tactics, only to realize that the new teammates did not participate in the study. When he looked up, the latter was leaning against the window, admiring the moonlight.

It's not a problem to like looking at the moon, but the moon can't help defeat evil spirits.

Kuang Jinxin watched for a while, but got up, left Qian Ai who was still remembering, and quietly came to Chi Yingxue's side.

Feeling that someone was approaching, Chi Yingxue turned around, half of her face was in the lights in the house, and half of her face was in the moonlight at night, with a strange beauty of fusion.

Kuang Jinxin was dumbfounded for a moment, then he regained his senses and asked, "Don't you memorize tactics?"

Chi Yingxue didn't expect him to come over so directly, but there was still a touch of tenderness on the corner of his lips: "It's too troublesome."

Kuang Jinxin shook his head in disapproval: "You're trying to save trouble now, it's more troublesome when fighting."

"Don't you think it's boring to count every step of the battle?" Chi Yingxue's voice was soft, like a murmur, like a sigh.

Kuang Jinxin looked at him quietly for a long time, and said, "This is not a game."

Chi Yingxue chuckled and asked back, "No matter how you fight, you can't die, isn't it a game?"

Kuang Jinxin was speechless.

In fact, he came over to ask, and he didn't intend to force Chi Yingxue's to study, he was just curious about this person's thoughts, and now he understands.

"Don't worry," Chi Yingxue gave the child a determined look, "I won't drag you down."

Kuang Jinxin shook his head almost without thinking: "We are teammates, there is no drag or no drag, only good performance."

Chi Yingxue was stunned for a moment, and there was a strange feeling in his heart. He couldn't tell what it was, and he couldn't even tell whether it was related to Kuang Jinxin's attitude or words.

After a long time, he remembered and responded: "I will play well."

Kuang Jinxin believed: "You are very powerful, I know."

It sounds like the conversation should end here, but the child in front of him has no intention of leaving.

Chi Yingxue raised her eyebrows curiously, waiting for the next paragraph.

"Don't be upset when I say something." Kuang Jinxin suddenly said this.

Chi Yingxue was even more interested: "Okay. Say it."

"You haven't been in the previous team for a long time. I don't think it's necessarily because of the King of Hell." Kuang Jinxin didn't mean to criticize, just stated his judgment.

Chi Yingxue's smile faded, but she still wanted to hear it for some reason.

"They want to escape from here, they want to be free," said Kuang Jinxin, "but you want to play."

Chi Yingxue was silent, her eyes darkened, and the air pressure around her body dropped significantly: "He doesn't even play games. At least, I still want to go to the finish line to see the scenery."

"Can you speak to Hades?"

"… Um?"

The sudden problem stopped Chi Yingxue's low-pressure storm halfway.

"That's it..." Kuang Jinxin tried hard to find a suitable metaphor, "For example, if you close your eyes and meditate, can you connect with the King of Hell in your brain? Just make a phone call and send a WeChat or voice and video."

"Sometimes... I can speak." Chi Yingxue didn't know why she said the last three words.

Kuang Jinxin's eyes widened in surprise, but he didn't expect that he could, and immediately said: "Then tell him, you can't always be so willful, pit teammates, pit opponents, and pit yourself, it's too stupid."

"..." Chi Yingxue took a deep breath and exhaled slowly, "I'll try to convey it to you."

Kuang Jinxin said sincerely: "It's troublesome."

Chi Yingxue asked strangely, "What about me, you have nothing to educate me?"

Kuang Jinxin really didn't. This new teammate has attitude, confidence, and a determined play-orientation and purpose. Such a person who knows what he is doing and enjoys it is much more mature than the one on the Ferris wheel. He can disagree with some of his views, but he is embarrassed and thinks that he is not qualified to mention "education" and "advisory". ".

Looking at each other quietly, Chi Yingxue gradually narrowed his eyes, not liking this reality for no reason: "Really nothing at all?"

Kuang Jinxin was very worried. He didn't understand why he just said that the reason for leaving the team was his, but he couldn't make him angry. Now it's not pleasant.

"Light colors," Kuang Jinxin searched his stomach and found a suggestion, sincerely, "You look good in light colors."

Chi Yingxue was stunned for a while, and after a long time, she said in a subtle mood, "Oh."

When Kuang Jinxin turned around and went back, Chi Yingxue didn't pay attention. He was distracted for an unknown time. When he regained his attention, Xu Wang's face was already in front of him.

Chi Yingxue was startled, she controlled her body and didn't move, but her eyes flickered obviously.

"I'm not as cute as Xiao Kuang, and I don't need to be so obvious," Xu Wang said, and put the epiphytic flower into Chi Yingxue's hand, "Take it, I'll see you later."

"Me?" The bark attached to the rhizome of the flower was still damp, and it was cool against the palm of the hand.

"Don't you want to play freely," Xu Wang said, "Just right, we don't know how to use this flower, so you can adapt accordingly."

"This is the most critical item." Chi Yingxue doesn't like tactics, but it doesn't mean he doesn't understand the battle situation.

"That's why I have to hand it over to the person with the strongest combat power." Xu Wang said as a matter of course.

Chi Yingxue stared at him, trying to find a calculation from his face or eyes: "Xiao Kuang said I don't fit in with the group."

But he failed because Xu Wang nodded straightforwardly: "Yes."

Chi Yingxue: "…"

"But there are advantages to not being gregarious," Xu Wang smiled slyly, "With less politeness, communication is more direct."

Chi Yingxue raised her eyebrows as if asking.

Xu Wang patted him on the shoulder and said earnestly: "Your only advantage is your appearance and combat power. Protect the former and play the latter well. No matter how annoying you are, you will be regarded as the team's treasure."

Chi Yingxue: "…"

"Oh yes, don't worry about other tactics, but there is one you must remember if you want it or not," Xu Wang suddenly became serious, "Plan P."

P

Perhaps because he was still concerned about what Kuang Jinxin said, "You want to play", Chi Yingxue's first thought was: "PLAY? Play?"

Xu Wang was a little disappointed by the mutual understanding: "PAO, run."

Chi Yingxue: "…"

For the next period of time, Chi Yingxue, who sent off the new captain, didn't think about anything, so he emptied against the wall.

By accident, the shadow across the corner was the first to be discovered.

"Here." He reminded immediately.

All the little friends jumped up, all on guard.

Shadows disappear into the kitchen.

The five guarded Konina and entered the kitchen together.

The wall against which the shelf was attached was red like hot coals.

The wooden shelves smelled of burnt and had blackened edges.

Xu Wang turned around and wanted to wink Chi Yingxue, but found that the latter had already held up the epiphytic flower with one hand, facing the shelf.

Chi Yingxue's reaction speed was faster than he expected.

Unfortunately, nothing triggers.

The burning red on the wall slowly formed a ghost, and from a distant unknown place, a hellish shrill sound came from—

"The witch... must... be burned..."

The ghost figure broke away from the wall, flew to the ceiling, swooped down, and went straight to Konina, who was guarded by the five people in the middle!

Epiphytic Flower still didn't respond, obviously it was the fourth situation right now, that is, the item took effect in a delayed manner, and the "Ding Project" started naturally.

There is no need to use Wu Sheng to shout, Kuang Jinxin has already clicked it - !

At the moment when Amy's ghost fell down, a ghost with green face and fangs suddenly appeared on the top of the five people's heads, and went up to meet Amy!

One fiery red, the other blue and black, two fierce spirits entangled together in an instant, starting a confrontation between China and the West, where ghosts fight ghosts.

With the fight, Amy's ghost became more and more intense, and the temperature of the entire kitchen also rose, and the heat wave was scorching!

Chi Yingxue is holding epiphytic flowers like a model, and she doesn't know when there will be any movement.

There was a sudden burst of cold air all around.

Chi Yingxue was stunned, and heard the prompt in her ear—

[Owl: Someone used on you~~]

The walls that were baked red were slowly covered with a layer of frost, the frost was quickly baked, and new frost covered it again.

Chi Yingxue looked at the new teammate.

Kuang Jinxin was staring at the air, concentrating on manipulating the blue-faced ghost.

Xu Wang was staring at the wall, sweat dripping from his forehead.

The Ice Age slowed the heating of the kitchen, but there was no way to cool it down.

The fierce gods and evil spirits were defeated at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The power of stationery has been significantly weakened in the quest line.

Chi Yingxue looked at the flower in her hand, intuition that she still had to rely on this at the last minute, but how? The hell knows.

The petals have wilted in the heat.

Chi Yingxue sighed, released her sore arm, changed the flower to the other hand, continued to hold it gracefully, and waited for the call of the quest line.

"Xin Patch!" Wu Sheng shouted, pulling back Chi Yingxue's mind wandering.

I saw that the green face and fangs were gone, the ghosts became more and more blazing, the corner of the wall had already ignited flames, and the Ice Age was dying.

[Owl: Someone used on you~~]

[Owl: Someone used on you~~]

The first prompt is for evil spirits.

The second sound is for the five partners.

Chi Yingxue couldn't hear the first one, but he felt the gust of wind suddenly rise, and his body was almost rolled off the ground. Fortunately, the wind around the five stopped for a moment.

A real gust of wind gives the evil spirits.

The wind was like a barrier, and the evil spirits were slow to approach.

Chi Yingxue was next to Qian Ai and clearly saw that he had clicked on another !

A bible with light suddenly appeared in the air, and it floated directly in front of the murdered spirit. The murderous spirit was surrounded by strong winds and could not escape. It was like being forced to listen!

The next moment, whispers of the gospel filled the kitchen.

In the sound of the gospel, the evil spirit let out a shrill howl, and the flame-like figure was twisted and deformed!

Ghosts fight ghosts, ice fights fire, gospel purifies evil spirits... Chi Yingxue doesn't like step-by-step battles, but objectively speaking, Wu Sheng's highly targeted deployment greatly improves the utility of stationery and the combat effectiveness of the four of them.

Chi Yingxue has been with teams that play freely, usually they are not strong enough but feel good about themselves. Sometimes, he wants to send them home for NPCs.

The light of the Bible, I do not know when, weakened.

Chi Yingxue raised her head, frowning slightly in the dazzling firelight.

no.

Stationery can kill evil spirits, but it is too limited. No matter how long the stalemate lasts, the evil spirits will always prevail.

Ding's plan is to delay time until the key props take effect.

So the stalemate itself is the purpose of this battle.

The question is when does the prop take effect

The four people in the battle didn't rush him, and didn't even glance at him with anxious eyes, but Chi Yingxue was anxious.

He regretted taking on this task.

Without flowers, he can do whatever he wants, and now it's better, he's completely trapped.

"Small situation—" Qian Ai suddenly shouted.

I don't know who hit Chi Yingxue, staggered back a step, looked closely, the formation had broken up, and Jin Xin was thrown down by the evil spirit, he protected Konina under him, and the evil spirit burned his body. back!

Qian Ai didn't know what weapon he used, but with a Holy Grail in his hand, he swung it at the evil spirit!

The evil spirit left in an instant, and the Holy Grail whizzed past Kuang Jinxin's back, waving it empty!

But anyway, Kuang Jinxin was rescued from the burning.

The four of them have no formation, so they use their own stationery to deal with evil spirits to the maximum extent!

Chi Yingxue is the most leisurely one.

He didn't know if it was because he was holding an epiphytic flower, the evil spirit really never came over.

and many more? If the evil spirits are afraid of the epiphytes themselves, why not give the epiphytes directly to Konina and let them protect the lord

Chi Yingxue glanced at Xu Wang in the embarrassed battle, unable to believe that the other party would make such a low-level mistake.

Two steps came to the corner, where the girl was shrinking and shivering.

Chi Yingxue handed the light blue flower to her and commanded the same tone: "Take it."

Cornina's already frightened expression became even more frightened, and she almost shook her head: "Don't—take it away—"

Chi Yingxue was stunned by this reaction.

Xu Wangcai saw what the new team members were doing, the black line: "I can give it early, she is afraid of everything related to magic!"

A bunch of flowers that fall in love with someone, is it related to magic

Chi Yingxue didn't know.

He only knew that this was the first communication he received after the battle began.

[Don't you want to play freely, just right, we don't know how to use this flower, you can adapt accordingly... ]

[That's why you have to hand it over to the person with the strongest fighting ability...]

Well said.

As a result, now the epiphytic flower does not move, and it is a decoration with myself.

Chi Yingxue sneered in his heart, but looking at the four people who were retreating in front of him, and the motionless Epiphytic Flower in his hand, he became very irritable.

He endured the boredom of the battle, but if he waited any longer, the four of them would go home!

The eyes, which were reflected in the fire, slowly darkened, as dark as night.

Chi Yingxue slowly turned around, stood in front of Konina, and called softly, "Hey, Amy."

In the whistling of the heat wave, this sound was very small.

The evil spirit chasing Qian Ai seemed to hear it, and his body froze slightly.

[Owl: Someone used on you~~]

Chi Yingxue quietly listened to her armor taking effect, held her breath, and slowly gathered a white mist under her feet.

Suddenly, he flew into the air without warning, like an arrow from a string, heading straight for the evil spirit!

The evil spirit instinctively sensed danger and wanted to hide, but the speed suddenly slowed down.

Chi Yingxue doesn't know which partner's stationery this silk thread is, in short, he is very satisfied.

In an instant, having arrived in front of the evil spirit, Chi Yingxue did not hesitate to hold the epiphytic flower in his palm for a long time, and greeted the evil spirit fiercely!

If the place where the pair of holes is located is a face!

The four partners below held their breath.

The moment the evil spirit was attacked by the epiphytic flower, it suddenly turned into a real, scorched Amy!

Under the palm of Chi Yingxue's palm, the fierce spirit, whose arm was already shrunken in black, slammed into the wall with a bang!

The golden thread wrapped around her body faintly glowed, restraining her resistance!

Chi Yingxue withdrew her hand, and the epiphytic flower fell softly to the ground, and the buds and petals were all smashed.

The little friends were stunned, including Chi Yingxue, but he quickly reacted, clicked his arm, and the next second he had a cross with a cold light in his hand!

Before the four of them could react, the cross that was as sharp as a knife had been stabbed into the heart of the charred corpse by Chi Yingxue!

Amy struggled hard, but Chi Yingxue's wrist holding the cross remained motionless, almost nailing her to the wall!

No one has noticed the epiphytes on the ground.

But at this moment, it glowed with a faint blue light, and then floated up leisurely, returning to its previous appearance. The blooming buds were faintly fragrant, and the buds that were about to bloom were blooming little by little!

Amy no longer struggled, her empty eyes were facing the epiphytes in the air, and her hoarse voice was filled with unwilling resentment and curse—

"You can protect her for a while... You can't protect her forever... Next time, I will find her first... "

The evil spirit slowly disappeared in the increasingly strong light blue light. It was not destroyed, but just dormant temporarily, waiting for a comeback one day in the future.

Chi Yingxue found that her body was slowly becoming transparent.

He instinctively lowered his head, as did the four new teammates below, their bodies gradually becoming transparent.

Is this going to leave oil painting

Chi Yingxue couldn't be sure, he only knew that the four people below looked up at him, and the various "straightforward emotions" in their eyes made him very uncomfortable.

Qian Ai, Strong Contradictions - I recognize your strength, but I still despise you.

Kuang Jinxin, enthusiastic affirmation - you are more powerful than I imagined.

Wu Sheng, the unexpected blessing - this classmate, I think you can take a wave of wisdom.

Xu Wang, Lao Huai's comfort money - I really didn't believe the wrong person.

This is a team with too much emotion, very, too much.

Looking at each other silently, Captain Xu turned his hands behind his back and quietly exited the stationery box, as if he had never used a piece of armor called "Honorable Righteous Gold Silk", which had hidden merit and fame.

Two hours ago, on the way back to Cornina's hut.

Wu Sheng: "You want to give the epiphytic flowers to Chi Yingxue?"

Xu Wang: "I don't know how to use it anyway."

Wu Sheng: "It's good to be able to trigger it actively. What if the user needs to find a way?"

Xu Wang: "It's best."

Wu Sheng: "You have so much confidence in him?"

Xu Wang: "Not at all."

Wu Sheng: "..."

Xu Wang: "He is even more alone than Chi Yingxue in the playground. It is difficult for such a person to really regard anyone as a teammate."

Wu Sheng: "Then you agree to increase the number of members?"

Xu Wang: "I can't bear his fighting strength... and face."

Wu Sheng: "Speak the last two words in a very low voice."

Xu Wang: "So I still want to try and see if it can inspire his camaraderie."

Wu Sheng: "..."

Xu Wang: "Someone has to give trust first. When adding more members, if I can do this, maybe he won't leave."

Wu Sheng: "Impossible, he is obsessed with Li Zijin."

Xu Wang: "..."

"If you fail," Xu Wang looked at his military adviser, his eyes suddenly became pitiful, "you can't blame me."

Wu Sheng: "..."

Where did "you" come from, he is the only one being played emotional cards here, okay

Not wanting to see another miserable face, Wu Sheng guided his captain to imagine a better future: "What if it happens?"

"It's done..." Xu Wang looked up at the starry sky, suddenly a little afraid to think.

If Chi Yingxue really had the strength to kill Li Zijin and their entire team, and treat his teammates as partners from the bottom of his heart, maybe he would be invincible.

Fighting power is based on belief.

No matter how much you play, you can't compare to a little bit of heart that wants to move forward side by side with your partners.
