Chapter 21: The Snooper

Adelia staggered to her feet, she heard Given's call, and saw the wounded and dying demon.

The raging flames around her, the demon's huge body and wings, reminded Adelia of that terrible night in her memory.

Those demons had destroyed everything she had ever had.

Mother and friends, affection and joy, and the peace and quiet life were all buried in that night.

Since that night, she has not wanted to take revenge on these demons with her own hands, so that they too will suffer and receive the punishment of death.

And today, it is finally time to start taking the first step on the road to revenge.

Adelia glared angrily and recited the incantation, and the magical energy around her body quickly accumulated again.

Several huge vines sprouted from the dirt at the demon's feet and grew wildly into the air, the vines covered in spikes and dancing in all directions. The massive vines violently wrapped around the demon's body, nailing the spikes deep into the demon's body.

Although the demon's flame barrier was still working, and the vines were reduced to ashes by the flames one by one, the number of vines increased, and after a while, the demon's body was firmly fixed by the vines. Blue blood trickled down the spikes from the vines.

Adelia walked behind the demon, picked up the short stick that Jiwen had just thrown on the ground from the ground, and aimed the end of the spike at the demon's heart.

Dutore had sensed the end coming, and he wanted to break free from this fate, but Giving's hands were still firmly in his throat, and the wooden thorns that pierced his body and the vines that trapped his limbs made him unable to move.

He wanted to curse these enemies, he wanted to warn his companions, but now he couldn't do anything.

Adelia took a deep breath, as if saying goodbye to her old self, stared at the demon's ugly body, and then used all her strength to thrust the spiked iron rod into the demon's chest.

Flutter!

The sharp blade pierced the demon's chest, and the demon shook violently, and then all struggles stopped in an instant.

Blue blood lingered down the wound, forming a stream of blood.

The demon Dutore was motionless, his blue-green pupils staring unwillingly at the darkness in the forest. And Givens was still choking him by the throat.

"He's dead. Adelia reminded Givens in a whisper.

It wasn't until he heard this sentence that Jiwen dared to let go of his hands, and then sat down on the ground with his ass collapsed.

He looked up at the corpse of the demon that was perched on the vine, and his heart was filled with emotion.

With the armor, the chain ball and the throwing stick that he snatched, plus a little luck, he finally took out this guy.

Just then, he saw Adelia staggering around the vines and over to his side.

"Are you alright?"

Givens asked with concern. This vicious battle was not easy for the two first-time combatants. And Jiwen also knows that demons seem to be a shadow that Adella's heart can't erase, and it takes extra courage to face those monsters.

But Adelia didn't answer, she just reached out and pulled Jiwen up, and then said solemnly to him, "Thank you for saving me." ”

Adelia's expression was very serious, and Ji Wen was even a little embarrassed to see it, so she had to respond: "Thank you, thank you, we are partners, this is how it should be." ”

Although Jiwen said this, he was still full of emotion in his heart.

Although Adelia is only her own summoner, there is nothing else between the two of them except the contract, although the old goblin Harvey and the birdman Quintus always instill in themselves to stay away from the summoner. But Jiwen is always unconsciously willing to help this little girl, willing to stand on the same battlefield with her.

Was it because she was her first summoner, or was it because she needed to go to her dream of coming home? Or was it because of something else?

In fact, Jiwen himself didn't really understand, he just did what he thought he should do.

But after hearing the answer, Adelia was silent for a moment, and then asked again, "What is a partner?

Givens laughed. Although his body hurt when he laughed, he still laughed happily.

"Fool, a partner is a friend who trusts each other, the kind of person you can trust your back to him. ”

Adelia was stunned, since she had closed her heart for revenge, she no longer had any friends.

But today, after tasting the joy of revenge, Adella's long-dried heart seems to be able to feel something that was once called friendship or dependence.

Adelia looked back at the demon's body, and then at Jivan, who had desperately saved herself from the demon.

This time, she whispered telepathically, "Thank you, partner." ”

At this moment, the flame barrier formed by the surrounding magic slowly weakened. Quinn and his two hedron warriors broke through the wall of fire and came to the clearing.

Quinn and his sheriffs looked in amazement at the clearing after the fierce battle, and in the middle of the clearing, a pillar formed by vines stood out.

On the pillar of vines like a memorial pillar, the corpse of the demon was firmly locked, like a sculpture, standing tall.

Beneath the pillar, the elven summoner and her strange summoned beast stood there. Judging by their clothing and expressions, it was clear that they had just gone through a vicious battle.

The elven summoner's robe was stained with blue demonic blood, and the summoning beast was charred black, and its cloak had been completely burned, revealing the set of Reslyn Demon Steel armor on its body.

Quinn smacked his tongue.

Apparently this pillar is the work of this little girl.

Quinn had also had a brief fight with that demon just now, and that demon had at least four or five order strength. Even if you go to hand-to-hand combat, you can't guarantee victory.

But now the demon has turned into a cold corpse, silently telling the little girl's strength.

The old sheriff looked back at his two men, who were also looking at the summoner and his servants from afar with a mixture of fear and awe.

Fortunately, they were able to stop their conflict before, and if they did, God knows what the bad consequences would be

At the thought of this, the seasoned sheriff shrugged, and then called out to Adelia and Gilvin from afar.

This time, even the tone of Captain Quinn changed slightly.

Instead of addressing the young summoner as a little girl, he solemnly called out her name.

"Adelia, hurry up, it's not appropriate to stay here for long. ”

Although the demon is dead, no one can guarantee that there will be any other enemies chasing after him. Just now, Quinn and the others had finished dealing with the remnants of the ambush, and now it was a good opportunity to retreat.

Adelia and Givens glanced at each other, and then tacitly began to prepare to retreat.

Jiwen picked up all the weapons he had just left behind, and then ransacked the demon's corpse along the way according to the custom of the next dungeon. The demon's bracelet, a magic necklace, and several rings and gems with unknown functions were all collected by Jiwen into a storage box on his armor.

Although Adelia scoffed at Given's actions, she remained silent.

After everything was done, Givens picked up the demon's corpse and followed him back to Quinn's team.

They needed a piece of evidence to prove the strength of the Jiwen Fourth-Order Summoned Beast, and this demonic corpse, along with the testimony of several magistrates, happened to be the most favorable evidence.

"Do you want to take that with you?"

Quinn asked, pointing to the demon corpse. If it was normal, he was not opposed to finding clues from the corpse, but now that he was evading pursuit, the corpse was somewhat of a burden.

"This is a valuable material that the college needs. ”

Adelia was reminded by Given's and opened her mouth. Her unquestioning attitude, especially the demonic blood-stained robes, made the sheriffs quickly accept the reason.

Quinn nodded, motioning for Adelia to follow, and the group quickly disappeared into the depths of the forest again.

When Jiwen and their figures disappeared for a long time, a fairy figure suddenly appeared on a stone in the nearby forest heights.

That's life spells, fossils.

Summoners can use this spell to bury their bodies in the rocks to avoid being pursued or to spy on their surroundings.

The elf, who had escaped from the stone, calmly straightened his clothes, and then turned around.

He turned out to be Professor Persson of the Summoning Academy!
