The next morning, Li Mo woke up with a start. He planned on keeping watch.
But perhaps because he hadn't rested for the past two days, he was too tired and unknowingly fell asleep.
"You're awake!"
Seeing that he had woken up, Zi Lingwei walked over to him and handed him a piece of dry rations.
"Whew … Nothing happened last night, right?"
Seeing Zi Lingwei in front of him, Li Mo relaxed.
"You haven't had a good rest for the past two days. I saw that you were too tired and fell asleep, so I didn't wake you!"
"Then … did you not sleep last night?"
"It's nothing. I used to do this a lot. Don't worry.
Zi Ling's heart warmed at Li Mo's concern.
She had regained the appearance of a gentle girl!
Seeing such an expression on her face, if not for the pain in his ribs,
Li Mo almost forgot her savage side!
"Alright!
Let's set off now! "
"Brother Li Mo, how about the five of us enter the Plains of Death together?
After all, there is strength in numbers. If there is any danger, we can take care of each other. "
"Sorry, we'd like to walk by ourselves!"
Li Mo was about to agree to Wang Zixuan's request, but Zi Lingwei beat him to it.
"Oh!
Since Miss is unwilling, then the three of us will take our leave.
See you later! "
Saying that, he glanced at the helpless Li Mo, flashed a knowing smile and left!
Hyah …
Li Mo couldn't help but sigh as he watched them leave!
"Sigh!
I say, Zi Lingwei, why did you reject their kind intentions? "
"Good intentions?
They have disturbed us time and time again. I don't want to go with them. "
Zi Lingwei's words left Li Mo speechless.
He swore to himself that he would clarify things with Zi Lingwei when he returned to the Guild after the trial ended.
Otherwise, if this were to continue, she would suffer even greater harm!
"Forget it, do whatever you want!
It's getting late, let's get going! "
…
After stepping a hundred miles into the Plains of Death, the scene from yesterday was indeed not as bleak as before.
Just as Zi Lingwei had said, some Demonic Beasts would appear from time to time. Moreover, they were all around Level 3.
Students from other guilds could also be seen fighting with Demonic Beasts!
"Heh … This place is really not bad!
At the very least, he would be able to meet people from other Guilds.
It's not like the Fog Forest, which only has trash from Azure City! "
Li Mo and Zi Lingwei rode on. The demon beasts here could no longer satisfy Li Mo's need to level up. They had to go deeper.
"The guild leader of Veluriyam City has some connections with the imperial family, which is why they're so overbearing and arrogant.
The Dense Fog Forest had almost become their Guild's backyard. However, their members had never dared to set foot in this place.
That's because their guild is notorious and has become the public enemy of all the other guilds in the empire. "
With Zi Lingwei's explanation, Li Mo understood why there were no other guilds in the Misty Woods.
"I see!
Forget it, let's not dwell on this for now.
In the future, I'll make sure those trash from Glass City get the hell out of the Dense Fog Forest!
Our most important task now is to work hard to improve our strength! "
Seeing Li Mo's unwavering face, Violet Spirit was silent!
But she still had faith in Li Mo's ability, because he was a miracle in her heart.
Under Zi Lingwei's guidance, the two arrived at the outskirts of the Plain of Death. The number of demon beasts here and the number of people hunting them increased.
"Li Mo, let's start here!
You mustn't go any deeper. Instructor Leng said that sixth level demon beasts and even seventh level demon beasts often appear! "
Seeing Zi Lingwei's solemn expression, Li Mo knew she was telling the truth.
He could deal with Class 5 Monstrous Beasts by relying on the three Monstrous Beasts' Inherited Skills. However, if he were to hunt a Class 6 Monstrous Beast, it would be equivalent to sending himself to his death.
"En!
Alright, let's do it here!
But there are so many people here. What if someone tries to steal our demon beasts? "
"Don't worry. Aside from Veluriyam City, the rest of the Empire's guilds are very law-abiding.
As long as we fight the demon beasts, the others will leave. "
"Ha-ha … that's good!
If the demon beasts are stolen, wouldn't our efforts be in vain? "
Thump thump thump …
Just as the two of them were preparing to search for Demonic Beasts, the sounds of fighting could be heard behind them.
Li Mo looked back and saw four similarly dressed youths tangling around a maggot-like demon beast.
"Earth Dragon!"
Li Mo recognized the demon beast right away. It was a peak fourth level demon beast.
It knew the Earth Escape skill and often jumped out of the ground to attack its prey.
"Stop looking. Even if you do, this demonic beast won't be ours anymore.
Let's go look for other demon beasts. "
Zi Lingwei rode away, but Li Mo was still looking forward to it.
The demon beasts here were different from the Misty Forest.
Most of the demon beasts in the Plain of Death had the Earth Escape skill. Relying on manpower would greatly reduce the efficiency of leveling up.
"Dragonscale Sword, it's all up to you now!"
He took out the Dragonscale Sword.
The Dragonscale Sword had an early warning ability, perfect for dealing with the hidden demon beasts.
An hour later, Li Mo's thoughts were confirmed.
When he and Zi Lingwei reached a depression, the Dragonscale Sword shone with a golden light.
"Hold on …"
Li Mo called out to Zi Lingwei and cautiously shielded her behind him, keeping a vigilant eye on the road ahead.
"What's wrong?"
Zi Lingwei was confused. She didn't know Li Mo's weapon had the ability to detect demon beasts.
"A demon beast is approaching us. Find a place to hide!"
"H-how did you know? B-but there's nothing around us!
Zi Lingwei looked around nervously.
"Stop looking!
It's right in front of me! "
With that, Li Mo jumped!
"Moon Decapitation!"
After a soft shout, a reddish-gold crescent light directly slashed the ground in front of him!
Boom …
Roar!
After the explosion, a huge crater appeared.
A Level 4 Demonic Beast Earth Dragon was curling up in pain and howling miserably.
"This …"
Li Mo's series of actions left Violet Spirit slack-jawed!
She knew of the Earth Dragon's peculiarity, but Li Mo found it so easily.
"What are you waiting for?
Hurry up and kill it. Otherwise, when it dies, its energy will be mine! "
Li Mo's urging brought her to her senses.
Zi Lingwei unsheathed her dagger and stabbed at the Earth Dragon's vitals.
A surge of energy flowed into her body, and her strength rose to level 23.
But Zi Lingwei's face didn't have a hint of happiness.
"Li Mo, did I drag you down by following you?
How can you level up if you let me kill all the monsters? "
"It doesn't matter!
A fourth level demon beast's energy is negligible to me anyway.
If we encounter a Class 5 Demonic Beast, I will not let you have it.
Don't blame yourself. We are comrades in the same guild. There's no such thing as dragging me down, got it? "
Seeing Zi Lingwei's sullen mood, Li Mo hastened to explain.
"Do you really think so?"
Zi Lingwei still blamed herself for Li Mo's words.
But Li Mo's words had some effect. At the very least, her face wasn't as ugly as before.
