Ye Linna's breathing was very rapid … The carbon dioxide and scorching temperatures from the fire almost suffocated her. There was also a prickling sensation in her chest, as if something was calling out to her, and something was about to spill out.
But the girl she was carrying, Yarisa, was in an even worse state. Worst of all … there was a huge Draconian Lord standing in front of Ye Linna.
But what puzzled Ye Linna was that the Draconian Lord didn't seem to have any intention of attacking her.
It wasn't just the Draconian Lord. The other Lords who had entered the residential area didn't seem to have any intention of attacking her.
That was why Ye Linna could run all the way here.
But how was she to leave?
Ye Linna slowly retreated under the Draconian Lord's gaze. She had no confidence in her mobility, and the Draconian Lord could send her back to meet the big ball of light with a swipe of its claws.
She wouldn't have jumped down if she'd known!
Wouldn't it have been better to just hide?
That regret appeared in Ye Linna's mind, but it was too late!
Because Ye Linna no longer regretted it!
Zhao Mingwei's figure descended from the sky, and the moment he landed, a Ferocious Tiger Shakes hit the Draconian Lord in front of Ye Linna with unerring accuracy.
The Draconian Lord was pressed to the ground by the Ferocious Tiger Shakes, and Zhao Mingwei took the opportunity to rush towards Ye Linna.
"Master!"
Ye Linna cried out in surprise when she saw Zhao Mingwei … and in the next second, Zhao Mingwei was engulfed by a large amount of heart.
Zhao Mingwei covered his eyes with his hands. The little heart that gushed out from Ye Linna's body was like a flood that had opened the floodgates. For a moment, it even blocked Zhao Mingwei's line of sight.
But Zhao Mingwei instinctively grabbed Ye Linna's collar … In that instant, Zhao Mingwei gulped down three bottles of strength enhancing potions. Then, aiming above the Leaping Nuclear Stronghold, he used all his strength to throw a Back Throw!
"Mas — Fu —"
Before Ye Linna could greet Zhao Mingwei, she entered a state of weightlessness and flew into the air, leaving behind a bunch of colorful stars along the way.
"Is it fun to throw your own disciple?" Lin Xi, who was in his gravestone state, complained.
"It's very fun. It feels good." Zhao Mingwei commented seriously on the fun of throwing his disciple.
"Alright, your disciple has been saved. It's time to go offline, right?"
Lin Xi calculated the time. It had been fifteen minutes since they hid in the storage room.
"I guess the entire coaching staff and management are searching for us now. If we are found, there will be a lot of misunderstandings."
If Lin Xi remembered correctly, he and Zhao Ming Wei were alone in a small storage room … What if they were discovered by someone else?
Lin Xi never wanted to be involved in a scandal with a man!
"…" Zhao Mingwei did not reply. He immediately activated a Qi barrier, and the Draconian lord behind him swung its huge claws at him.
"Master Xiao, you don't really want to finish this, do you?
I don't know how long it will take to get rid of so many lords! "Lin Xi panicked when he saw Zhao Mingwei's silence.
Coincidentally, a new battlefield mission popped up at that moment.
[Battlefield Mission: Guard the Stronghold. Mission Description: The monsters on the island have been preparing for a long time and have chosen this moment to attack the city. Holy Spirits, please drive the invaders away!
The location of the invaders has been marked on the map.
Mission Reward: Freya's Guiding Stone x1, Kitty's Gratitude Voucher x3.
]
"Do you know how much Freya's Guiding Stone sells for on 4396?" Zhao Mingwei asked.
"No matter how much it sells for, it won't be as much as your salary, right?" Lin Xi heard Zhao Mingwei's answer and knew that this internet addict would not go offline.
Freya's Guiding Stone was an item that could be exchanged by collecting the hearts of NPCs. At the same time, it was also the item that required the most hearts to exchange. One Guiding Stone required six thousand hearts!
The worst thing was that if one exchanged continuously within a month, the number would increase. The first exchange was six thousand hearts, the second was ten thousand, and the third was fourteen thousand!
Take the two Draconian sisters for example. The elder sister, Visser, could produce at most fifty hearts at a time. The younger sister could produce a little more than a hundred to a hundred and twenty hearts after completing a mission or bringing the milk to her without increasing the price. Ye Linna was a little more than a heart maker.
Ye Linna's little heart making machine was an exception. Normal NPCs could only produce 400 hearts a day on average. If she followed the NPCs and made them happy, she could collect more than 800 hearts at most.
Therefore, if one wanted to exchange for a Freya's Guiding Stone, one would have to work hard for at least a week. This was a situation where one did not eat or sleep every day and fawned over a cheerful NPC.
The function of this item was also very simple. It was to let Freya come out of the tree hole and play for six hours!
It was such a simple function.
Although taking Freya out on a date would give Freya one or two permanent blessings depending on the outcome of the date, Lin Xi still felt that it was not worth it.
"Master Xiao!
The other teams are probably getting ready to participate in the expedition ceremony!
The situation here has stabilized. Let's go offline first! "Lin Xi continued to persuade Zhao Mingwei.
"Isn't the Abyssal Temple busy fighting?
Leaping Nucleus is going to help. Two of the four expedition teams are busy. What's the rush? "
After Zhao Mingwei dodged the attack of the Draconian Lord behind him, he waved at Fluffy Rabbit who came to help.
…
Jiang Qiao was now floating above the Spirit Vein Forest … Now Jiang Qiao was a bit like playing a real-time strategy game. A large number of monsters appeared in his home, and Jiang Qiao had to think of a way for the players to get rid of these monsters.
But the players were really good at dealing with it … It made Jiang Qiao wonder if they had already thought of this situation.
Leaping Nucleus used the difference in height to trap the berserk NPCs was the most common method. Cola Fanatic's base was one of the most affected bases. There were thirteen berserk NPCs in their base that turned into Lord tier monsters.
But Cola Fanatic's resort was crazy enough to encircle a large swimming pool next to the beach.
Jiang Qiao didn't know what they were thinking … After occupying the land next to the initial stronghold, they expanded their territory into the depths of the spirit vein forest, and on the other hand, they expanded their territory to the beach.
The thirteen berserk Lord tier monsters were all kicked into the swimming pool by Queen Mey and Cola Fanatic's players to calm down.
"I have already issued a battlefield mission, but I think there are very few people who can be recruited." Hai Lan had been following beside Jiang Qiao, watching the situation below.
The strongholds of the major guilds had suffered varying degrees of destruction. Some of the NPCs that had turned into Lord tier monsters had even escaped from their strongholds.
But each of the major guilds had their own ways to deal with the situation. But … there was a guild whose stronghold was almost in ruins. It was the Abyss Temple that had built their stronghold in the canyon at the entrance of the Spirit Vein Forest.
What destroyed their stronghold was not the NPCs that had turned into monsters from within the guild, but an army of monsters from outside.
It was an army of Elite and Lord tier monsters controlled by the Spell Stealer. Jiang Qiao observed that there were more than three hundred monsters in the air.
This number was enough to flatten all the strongholds in the Spirit Vein Forest!
"Are they panicking?
Or did they expect this? "
Jiang Qiao opened the System Book. The assimilation value of the Spirit Vein Forest had risen to 47 after the addition of 53 civilians from the Spell Stealer. In comparison, the assimilation value of the Spell Stealer was only 50.
If things continued peacefully, it wouldn't take long for Jiang Qiao to gain complete control of the island. But the Spell Stealer had no intention of letting Jiang Qiao develop peacefully.
"Are we going to start an all-out war?" Hai Lan asked.
"There's no need … A small portion of our elite players can't participate in this war for too long. Since the Spell Stealer is relying on those Lord-level monsters, we'll just have to drive those Lord-level monsters away."
Jiang Qiao closed his System Book and took out an item called Odor Bomb from his backpack.
