Within Qinglian, his communication with the outside world was cut off.
The most important reason why a magician is powerful is that he connects the world and uses himself.
No one can create a flame out of thin air, and no one can condense snowflakes out of nothing.
Those who can do this are called gods. Although magicians are a profession that claims to be gods, there are only a few who can reach that realm.
Unable to communicate with external elements, countless powerful magics are impossible to speak of. Whether it is instant spells, silent magic, or chanted incantations, they are all strangled in their infancy.
Shi Feng, who was accustomed to being surrounded by his own strength, was now like a snow wolf with its sharp teeth and tusks removed, locked in a strong cage.
Ye Qing saw his eyes, but she was not afraid. She looked at Shi Feng quietly and was about to open her cherry-colored lips.
Shi Feng raised his right hand slightly, stretched out his index finger, and a crimson ice needle protruded from his fingertip. Without hesitation, he drew an arc and thrust it towards Ye Qing's heart.
He couldn't use magic originally, and he really couldn't use magic.
But he is Shi Feng after all, and he will not lose the ability to fight just because he loses contact with the outer world.
If you give up resonance with external elements and only mobilize the power of the inner world, then despite being weakened, you can still explode with sufficient combat effectiveness.
Therefore, the blood, as the embodiment of the water element, pierced the blood vessel of the index finger, and then condensed into an ice needle on the fingertip.
All of this happened between lightning and flint, so all of this was due to Shi Feng's instinct, the instinct to fight.
Just like that weapon, it has a suffocating, almost beastly powerful fighting instinct.
Ye Qing sighed quietly.
But her eyes were still looking at him calmly, without fear or disgust.
There is only one emotion simply called trust.
"It's me. Don't be afraid."
She clearly attributed Shi Feng's violent reaction to the simple emotion of "fear".
Shi Feng did not respond.
The crimson ice needle pierced Ye Qing's heart, but this was Qianye Liubi's domain, and it would not let others hurt its master.
So a cyan light curtain rose, blocking the ice needle.
But the ice needle had terrifying hardness and sharpness, and the cyan curtain of light actually disintegrated layer by layer in front of the ice needle, unable to hinder the progress of the ice needle at all.
Even if this is because Qianye Liubi protects the Lord on her own without Ye Qing's urging.
But it still shows the terror of Shi Feng's explosive fighting power in a desperate situation.
Ye Qing seemed unable to see all this. She still did not let go of her right hand holding the opponent's wrist, nor did she choose to actively urge Qianye Liubi to defend herself.
She was in front of the other party, only a few feet away, ignoring the ice needle on her heart, and quietly asked: "You."
"Do you really want to kill me?"
Shi Feng didn't stop, and the ice needle didn't stop either.
He broke through the last layer of curtain light, pierced through the soft white windbreaker, and plunged into Ye Qing's chest like lightning.
Ye Qing sighed, and coughed out a mouthful of blood while sighing.
Her heart was compressed, her blood vessels burst, and blood entered her trachea.
Shi Feng was completely unaware that the other party had suffered fatal injuries. After the elemental connection with the outside world was cut off, all his actions were close to instinctive instructions.
His left hand was still not released, so he chose to attack more violently.
His right hand was stretched back, and the ice needle was cut off at the index finger. His blood was guided by strange power, seeping out from the capillaries in the skin of his palm, and gradually congealed into a blood-colored blood with countless thorns. puck.
This is the gathering of magic power all over his body, using blood as the carrier. It is not magic, but there is no magic more pure than it.
"That's enough." Ye Qing's voice sounded faintly.
The blue-haired girl stepped forward and hugged the blond boy.
Bright red blood gradually seeped out from her chest, but she didn't pay attention and allowed her blood to stain the other person's chest red.
"No matter what you do to me, I will never hurt you."
Shi Feng's body suddenly froze.
This boy's body is thin and thin, and you can clearly feel the hardness of his joints when you hold him in your arms.
Only at this time will you realize that he is not just a powerful and talented fifteen-year-old magician, a monster with a magician-level combat power.
He is also an ordinary boy of his own age.
Ye Qing's height only reached his chin, so his long green hair was softly pressed against Shi Feng's face. The cool orchid-like fragrance filled the air, and her soft girl's body clung to him, warm and fulfilling.
"Are there not enough people in this world for you to trust?"
Ye Qing whispered.
Shi Feng paused, and at that moment, a pale golden silhouette flashed in front of him.
"Everyone has a reason to live, so no matter what, we must live strong." Those warm and indifferent words echoed in his heart.
"Sister." Shi Feng murmured this title and his body stopped.
The ice ball, which was enough to destroy a hill, spread out in the air, and his eyes regained focus.
"Where is this? What am I doing?"
He asked himself hesitantly, and then felt the pressure on his wrists and the softness in his chest.
Not used to such close physical contact, he tried to push the other person away.
Then he failed to do so. The only thing Ye Qing did, who was extremely weak, was to hold him tighter.
"Welcome back." Ye Qing raised his head and smiled weakly.
Her crystal-white face was as pale as paper at the moment, and there were faint traces of blood on the corners of her mouth.
"You almost killed a princess."
"idiot."
Saying this, his tense spirit finally relaxed. Ye Qing let go of his hand and fell onto the snowy wasteland.
Qianye Liubi's barrier was still running. Shi Feng looked at the princess in front of him hesitantly and slowly recalled everything that had just happened.
He quickly squatted down, trying to take off Ye Qing's coat and check her injuries.
But at this time, a second voice sounded.
"As expected, you are a fool." The voice said slowly: "You also want to take advantage of the thirteen-year-old. As expected, the spread of lolicon is getting faster and faster."
Shi Feng was stunned. He looked at the white cat in disbelief.
During the conflict that just happened, Jianli curled up calmly in Ye Qing's arms, as if it had nothing to do with it.
However, when Ye Qing was unconscious, it emerged from under Ye Qing's windbreaker calmly and spoke calmly and sarcastically, its words gentle and indifferent.
Shi Feng naturally remembered this white cat who was inseparable from Ye Qing, but he never noticed anything unusual about this white cat.
Only then did the white cat begin to speak in a universal language.
"You don't need to take care of her injuries." Jian Yan said indifferently and absolutely: "It's just that I lack some medicine. If possible, I hope you can find it."
…
…
"Why is our journey so smooth!" Zhou Yan accepted the reward for this trip with a sad face.
Fifteen gold-leaf clovers jingled in the leather pocket.
"Who is worried about being robbed on the road?" Qi Xia looked at her senior with a half-smile: "Only when we arrived at the destination did we start complaining that there was no trouble."
"What do you know!" Zhou Xun said something to his boss for the first time, and then looked at the sky: "The so-called protagonist, even if he goes to a tavern to have a drink, there will be three or five big men, and the most beautiful women will meet together."
"If you dare to cross half of the Lanye Empire like us, you will be embarrassed to say hello to others unless you encounter a few gangsters and thieves on the way."
"There was never a safe journey. The biggest effort I ever made was to go down and help lift the sunken wheel." Zhou Yan looked frustrated: "It can be seen that we really have no life for the protagonist."
"It also proves that our life is indeed not a novel." Qi Xia patted Zhou Yan on the shoulder. The owner of the hall did not care about Poji Star Master's contradiction: "Then I took a step back and said, even if we are really killed by Blazing Flame Three thousand troops from the legion surrounded us, and in the end the person who was beaten to death was not you, senior, but this 100-pound body."
"So from this perspective, it's better not to have any surprises."
Zhou Yan thought about it carefully and felt that the boss Qi Xia was indeed the boss and thought much more than he did.
If something unexpected happens and Boss Qixia can't handle it, then he won't be the unlucky one in the end.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yan felt relieved: "It's better not to be the protagonist. So, boss, what should we do next?"
The two people were standing at the door of the mercenary guild. People were coming and going, but no one even glanced at these two seemingly ordinary young mercenaries.
This is Yanshi City, the easternmost city of the Lanye Empire, directly adjacent to the St Empire, so the Empire's Fourth Army Corps, which is responsible for foreign campaigns, is stationed. Even though it is not as elite as the First Army Corps that guards the capital, it has never been In terms of size and combat power, the Fourth Legion is undoubtedly the most formidable legion in the Lanye Empire.
Qi Xia smiled slightly, with an elusive smile in her red eyes: "Of course I'm doing something a normal mercenary would do."
"Let's go find the biggest pub and have a few drinks first, and then we'll find the most luxurious casino to have some fun."
"These are things that are not available in Ye Ye City. I wonder if the senior is interested?"
Zhou Yan's eyes widened when he heard this. He rubbed his palms in embarrassment: "So, boss."
"There must be some repertoire."
Qi Xia showed an expression of "you understand, I understand, everyone understands" and waved her hand boldly.
"As long as we win money, we will go shopping in the biggest alley."
No one paid attention to them on the road. It was like watching two ordinary young mercenaries go through life and death to earn their first pot of gold, and then couldn't wait to throw them into a wine cup and a woman's bed.
So no one could see Qi Xia sighing softly when she lowered her head.
"Yanshi City."
…
…
Lanyin County, Maple Leaf Valley.
On the mountain path covered with maple leaves, three girls walked together.
Ziquan walked at the front of the team, holding his usual rune fine gold rapier.
Although the Demon Swordsman is not strictly a melee profession, at this moment, there is no doubt that Ziquan will play this role.
As a guide, the medicine-gathering girl Zhiyi walked in the middle. As an ordinary farm girl who had never practiced magic or martial arts, the identity of the guide naturally had to be protected with the highest priority.
Lan Che held the crystal wand and walked at the end with ease. She was a great magician of the light system. Her status as a noble named Lan gave her more trump cards to face unexpected situations. Standing at the end, not only The queen also provides the best magic support to the team in a timely manner.
In the previous conversation with Zhiyi, Ziquan learned that there were no overly powerful monsters in Maple Leaf Valley. The strongest monsters the adventure team encountered when entering the valley were only at level 17 or 18.
Therefore, for the purpose of training and making sure that there was not much danger, they embarked on the drug search mission.
Maple Leaf Valley is not far from Lanyin City, only about forty miles away. If Ziquan goes all out, he can run back and forth in half an hour. But if you take paper clothes with you as a guide, the speed will undoubtedly slow down. After weighing the balance, they rented two fast horses. As a magic swordsman, Ziquan's riding skills training is an indispensable item. For Lan Che, an upright nobleman, it would be very difficult if he didn't know how to ride a horse. Big etiquette shame.
The three of them originally planned to set off early in the morning. If everything went well, they would rush back before dark. If not, they would be prepared to camp out for one night and rush back the next day.
So after traveling for more than an hour, Lan Che drove the three people in Zhiyi to the entrance of Maple Leaf Valley. They saw three large cinnabar-covered characters of Maple Leaf Valley, Ziquan and Maple Leaf Valley artificially carved with an ax on a huge bluestone. Only then did I realize that Maple Leaf Valley was probably an important industry before it was occupied by Warcraft.
As soon as they asked, Zhiyi told the two that Maple Leaf Valley was originally rich in various medicinal materials and was an important source of income for Lanyin City. Hundreds of medicinal farmers planted herbs outside Maple Leaf Valley and occasionally entered the valley to pick rare spiritual herbs. Originally, they all They can be considered a wealthy family in Lanyin City, but there are unforeseen circumstances.
Four years ago, monsters suddenly began to appear in Maple Leaf Valley, biting the farmers who entered the valley to collect herbs, forcing most of the farmers to give up their business here.
Encountering such a change, the city lord naturally couldn't ignore it. He led his troops to clear out the monsters in the valley several times. The first few times were successful, but every time they were cleaned up, new monsters would emerge from the valley, and the more they were cleaned up, the more monsters in the valley were destroyed. On the contrary, it will become more powerful and dense. In desperation, the former city lord was forced to abandon this medicinal powerhouse.
Zhiyi's family has been relying on the herbs here for generations. Now that Maple Leaf Valley is occupied by monsters, their livelihood is cut off, and the situation is naturally difficult. In desperation, Zhiyi's parents ventured into the valley in the hope of finding some rare medicinal materials to raise capital and switch to the medicinal materials business. Unexpectedly, there were unexpected wind and rain, and there was no news after leaving. Zhiyi, who was only twelve years old at the time, sold herself into the city lord's mansion as a slave, so as to avoid the hardship of living on the streets.
The three of them tied their horses to the entrance of the valley and entered the valley together. Maple Leaf Valley is as its name suggests. The gaps between the rocks on both sides of the cliff are covered with strange and proud maple trees. Although it is already the middle of winter, the maple leaves are unbeatable and red. Like a flame, it forms an ocean, like a continuous fire burning clouds.
Ziquan and Lanche had never seen such a beautiful scenery in their lives, so they couldn't help but stop and admire it. However, the purpose of their trip was not that, so they followed Zhiyi and walked deeper into the valley.
Entering the valley, there are many trees. Although maple trees still account for a large proportion here, they are not alone here.
Along the way, Ziquan and Lan Che finally understood what the comment about being rich in medicinal materials meant to Maple Leaf Valley.
This is a lowland valley with shrouded clouds and mist, a humid climate, mild seasons, and a gathering of spiritual energy. It is originally very suitable for the growth of medicinal herbs, so a large number of medicinal farmers plant it here.
However, what is even more valuable is that there are springs and streams in Maple Leaf Valley, criss-crossing each other, and the soil is special and contains spiritual energy. After only a few miles, under Zhiyi's guidance, I picked several golden-leaf grasses worth more than one golden leaf. of precious herbs.
You know, this is the outer area, but because of the rampant monsters in the past four years, the inaccessibility of people has allowed the spiritual grass to gradually grow.
However, at the same time, the three of them also encountered a monster.
