Chapter 103: The Opposite Path
As soon as Hua Ya's words were finished, Leo Lu subconsciously grabbed the small metal box on the scarf with his paws, but then he regretted it, because acting so flustered was basically equivalent to not admitting himself.
"I didn't ...... Nothing?"
The words in his heart were condensed into one sentence, because he had no way to explain them.
Hua Ya tilted her head, and then nodded in understanding: "It should be something quite important, since you don't want to say it, I won't ask, anyway, it can't be what Chirulian gave you......"
Leo Lu was stunned: "How do you know this is not a strange ......"
Before he could finish speaking, Leo Lu felt the gaze coming from beside him.
After a long time, even Chirulian wanted to find out where the stone came from, her expression already said it all, no wonder Hua Ya could guess it.
"It's really inconvenient to say this...... I'm sorry. Leolu nodded apologetically to Chirulian, "If you really want to know......
"Forget it, no need," Chirulian shook her head, "Since we're still cooperating, I'm not going to ask questions, it's better to get the job done quickly." “
"That's right," Hua Ya agreed, "we have to hurry, who knows ...... guy"
"Yo Yo Yo, I didn't expect me to be so popular, as soon as I came, I heard you talking about me, am I really that attractive?
It's miserable, obviously the person who doesn't want to see the most, but now he appears in front of them at the most difficult time.
It was as if he had appeared out of nowhere, and Huaya didn't notice it at all, and even Leolu and Chirulian, who were facing him, only saw him when he was already close.
However, it was still a knee-jerk reaction, Leo Lu disappeared on the spot, and the next second appeared behind Hua Ya, pushing the girl in front of Chirulian with one claw, and at the same time, Chirulian raised her pink and haunting hands, ready to use the [Wall of Light] and [Reflection Wall] at any time.
"Don't be so nervous, since we're all in a team, let's be friendly. “
Leolu smiled bitterly, "Friendliness? is indeed a rare quality, but when it comes out of your mouth, it always feels full of malice. “
Delang was not angry, and grinned: "Hahahaha, I haven't seen you for so long, you little guy is really interesting, presumably that little ghost should have grown a lot." “
"Give me less ideas for Ikki!"
Leolu's figure disappeared in place, and the place where he had just stood was now only a large crater and a cloud of smoke, and then on Delang's body, there was a dull sound similar to the collision of metal, and it was twice.
"It's surprising that you're able to make two attacks in such a short period of time, and you're getting more and more surprised as an opponent," Derang's hands were blocked in front of his chest, and Leolu was still maintaining a fist swinging posture, suspended in the air at the position of the fist that hit Delang's body, it can be seen that the power of the impact is still continuing, but before Chirulian and Huaya felt surprised, Delang laughed, "But it's a pity, even if you are stronger than before, there is still no way to defeat me!!"
The muscles on Delang's body flared up, and his arms pressed forward vigorously, pushing Leo Lu out against the pressure that was still continuing.
"This ...... That's impossible. “
In any lifetime, this situation was far beyond Leolu's knowledge, as if he had encountered a product of another dimension.
"For Uncle Ben," Delang's leg stepped forward hard, and the ground was stepped by him with a footprint more than ten centimeters deep, and with his exaggerated shout, Leo Lu was pushed back, "This kind of power can only be regarded as a child's house!!"
"Bump!!"
The second impact sent a sonic boom in the air, and Leolu could only launch a third attack to counteract Derang's impact as much as possible, but his body was still knocked out of the way...... And it flew straight to Chirulian and Huaya.
It was impossible for them to dodge in such a short time, the distance was short, and Chirulian's strength had not recovered, so it would take a long time to cast [Teleportation]......
In desperation, Chirulian could only stand in front of Hua Ya, and various transparent walls of light blocked in front of them one after another.
Leolu knew that he was flying towards the two of them at a very fast speed, not that he didn't try to stop, but he couldn't stop at all, even if he adjusted his body posture in the air and stepped his feet into the ground, he couldn't stop, but in an instant he bounced off the ground again and continued to fly with the ground at a very fast speed.
"Wow~Wow~"
The sound of the wall of light shattering sounded as if it were about to form a piece of music, and Chirulian didn't care what would happen to her, she just wanted to block Leo, because if she dodged him and left him alone, what awaited him would be to collide with the stout tree behind him, which was cylindrical and had a small force point, and collided with that kind of thing......
Chirulian didn't dare to think about it, because it hurt just to think about it. It was also the first time she had experienced Derang's horror...... Although this is beyond her cognition, there is nothing she can do about the facts in front of her, even if she doesn't believe it.
Although the wall of light was effective in reducing Leolu's speed, even a few more blocks could not stop him, and there was not much wall of light left, leaving them with just over a second left to make a decision.
"I'm sorry, Leolu, and thank you, Chirulian. “
Hua Ya hugged Chirulian's waist, but her eyes were fixed on Leolu, who was still rolling and didn't know how injured she was.
"Hey, you're going to do it...... Ahh
The last few barriers dissipated instantly, and Hua Ya jumped out of Leo Road with Chirulian in her arms at a very extreme distance, but Hua Ya's leg still touched slightly, and only a little bit of it appeared.
Leolu actually hit the trunk behind them, but he was kicking on the trunk with his feet and his claws digging deep into the wood, and after two or three seconds, he fell to the ground on his back.
“……“
Even so, Leolu didn't say a word, because Delang's "small test" had made him see the gap in strength, although he was unwilling, but he had to admit that he couldn't beat him.
After landing, Hua Ya put Chirulian on the ground, and Chirulian ran to Leolu's side at the moment of landing, looking at Leo Lu who was motionless, Hua Ya glared angrily at Delang, who was standing in place as if he was nothing, grinning and smirking: "You are too kidding, what will you do if he is injured?"
Delang scratched his head and said, "Oh, I almost forgot about it, I didn't expect it to be really bad without him, hahahaha." “
"I don't know how to get out of Hinoki Town, but since I'm on a mission, be honest with me!" Hua Ya said coldly.
"Hey, hey, Miss, it's clear that he attacked me first, so you have to be reasonable in doing things. “
"Reasonable?" Hua Ya turned her head sideways and only looked at him out of the corner of her eye, "Have you been reasonable?"
"Hehe, it doesn't seem to be ...... Uncle Ben never needs to be reasonable, hahaha!"
Huaya knew that she couldn't talk to him, and that she would always suffer in the end, so she turned and trot away towards Chirulian and Leo.
But Delang's voice came from behind him again: "Anyway, there is nothing that needs me now, Miss, contact me directly when you need me, you know the method, hahaha~"
When Hua Ya turned around, Derang was gone, if it weren't for the big pit on the ground and the two marks that Leo Lu had just pulled out on the ground, Hua Ya might have thought that there was no one there just now.
That's right, it's true that there is no one......
Some are just monsters......
Chirulian is using her strength to help Leolu treat his wounds, although the injuries are scary, but they don't hurt the bones, and after the treatment is completed, he can basically be alive after a day of rest.
Leolu gasped, only to find that Chirulian's hand was trembling slightly, and his expression was very solemn.
"...... Qilu [I originally thought that you and I were strong enough now, but from the scene just now, I knew that I was wrong, and I was wrong...... I'm really sorry it didn't help you. 】“
Leolu sighed, but luckily the claw wasn't hurt much, but the back of the claw that was in contact with Derang's arm hurt a little, so he reached over and took Chirulian's hand.
"Oulu...... [There are still many things we have to work on...... And I've been working hard for this, but I didn't expect there to be such a big gap......]"
Not only Chirulian, but Leolu also looked a little lost.
Hua Ya came to the two of them, looked at Leolu's injury, nodded, bent down and pulled him up, took off the scarf around Leolu's neck, and tied it around his waist with the scarf twice in Leolu's frightened eyes, and tied it in a knot on his chest.
"Hey, Hua Ya...... I don't need it yet...... Let's be treated like this. Leolu's voice was weak, and it was evident that a large part of his strength had been consumed, and even the use of the extremely small consumption of [Electrocardiogram] had become difficult.
"Okay, don't talk, this is the reward for helping me punch Derang, and don't underestimate me, I can move without hindrance with an elf of your weight. “
"Hua Ya, can I really trouble you? or I'll do it......" Chirulian held out her hand to Hua Ya, "I can use my mental power to ......"
"Forget it," Hua Ya shook her head and rejected Chirulian, "I'm a human, although I can't compare to you elves in terms of physical fitness, but our physical strength can be quickly recovered by resting, and we can quickly regain our activities, but if the super elves overuse their abilities, it will take at least two or three days to recover, and what bad sequelae will be left in the worst case...... Like I like Leo Road or something. “
"Ah," Chirulian blushed, "who, who likes him...... Don't make any more jokes about me at times like this!!"
Leolu, who was carried on Hua Ya's back, heard the conversation between the two of them, and really didn't have the strength to get involved, so he started to rest without even looking at it.
"I just wanted to relax the atmosphere, and sure enough, it failed, I'm really not good at this......" Hua Ya looked at the flushed Chirulian suspiciously, "But I don't believe you don't like Leolu, I also saw the two of you kissing......"
"Ahh Don't mention that thing!!"
……
……
……
……
"So, what do we do next?"
Chirulian looked up and asked Hua Ya after calming down.
"First go to Manjin City, where my men found useful information, but they couldn't parse it, so I went in person. Hua Ya, who had several large bags on her head, replied.
Chirulian sighed, "Then let's go, God knows what troubles to deal with...... Ha ~~~~~"
Halfway through her words, Chirulian yawned widely, and her eyes began to close slowly.
"Ahh......h I always feel ...... So...... Sleepy...... Naw. “
As the world swirled, Chirulian's legs went limp, and she fell to the ground with a "pop".
Seeing this, Hua Ya immediately ran up, lifted her up from the ground, touched her forehead with her hand, and then put it under her nose, and after a while, Hua Ya breathed a sigh of relief.
"It seems that the use of [Light Wall] and [Reflection Wall] just now is beyond her tolerance...... Now it's in trouble. “
He looked back at the guy on his back who had slept for an unknown amount of time, and then at Chirulian in his arms.
"I didn't expect to be a nanny when I first set off...... Well, forget it, just take it, after all, the two of them will have to do much more tiring things in the future than this. “
Adjusting Chirulian's position, Hua Ya looked into the distance and took an extremely difficult first step.
"Daddy...... I'm going to be able to bring you back...... Take you and your sister ...... I'm not going to let you run around again......"
——————————————————————
In the western forests farther away from Hinoki Town, the fire dinosaurs and Zoroa cut off the branches of trees that stood in their way, followed by a boy in his teens, a little girl under the age of ten, and a girl who was already eighteen years old.
"Selia, are you sure they're in Hinoki Town? Didn't they say they were surrounded by a lot of Team Rocket people, how did they get in?"
The girl didn't answer right away, and her pace of keeping moving suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Hua Ling squatted down and asked with concern.
Selia shook her head, slightly changed the direction of her body, and stretched out her right hand to point ahead: "Brother...... Moved, ...... Past...... Over there. “
Looking in the direction of Selia's finger, Kazuki quickly opened the map, his brow furrowed.
"It's in the direction of Manjin City, and I heard that there is a very spectacular shopping mall there, but ...... What is he doing there? Why don't you come with us?"
Selia shook her head: "I ...... I don't know, but ...... Total、I feel ...... Extraordinary...... Not good. “
Suddenly, the girl's pupils shrank suddenly, and her outstretched arm hung limply.
Although Celia rarely showed her expression, this time Ikki understood it, and she was frightened.
But...... What was it that scared her?
"Selia, what's wrong?" Kazuki pulled her to sit on a tree stump by the side of the road and asked softly.
"Selia...... I don't feel ...... My brother existed. “
"This ......"
Yihui and Hua Ling looked at each other, they really had no choice, and they didn't know why.
"Selia, you calm down first, let's go to Manjin City first, maybe we will find some clues, Leo Road is so rare, it must be easy for others to remember......"
Selia's delicate nose twitched, and she nodded vigorously: "Hmm...... Selia ...... Don't panic because ...... Selia ...... I promised, brother. “
Ikki put some snacks on it, but the news that Leolu's signal disappeared is not optimistic, if he could, he really wanted to teleport to Leolu's side now, but unfortunately he didn't have that ability.
"Manjin City...... I remember seeing an advertisement in the Elf Center saying that there was a contest going on, and the reward seemed to be an elven egg, could Leolu and little Chirulian go to Manjin City for that?" Hua Ling said with her finger on her chin.
Yihui sighed, because he knew that this was impossible, and only those who couldn't understand the situation were naturally stunned like Hua Ling.
"Let's go and have a look, since they are also in Manjin City, hurry up and maybe meet them halfway. “
After hypnotizing himself like this, Kazuki pulled Seria up, turned to Zoroa and the fire dinosaur and shouted, "Keep it up, we're going to do our best!"
Zoroa and the fire dinosaur looked at each other and smiled: "Suo!!" Roar !!"
No matter what, as long as there is hope, there will always be a way.
