Chapter 78: The Devil Strikes
"We can only send the two of us here, that monster, we ordinary people can't deal with it. β
The villagers said goodbye to the two and withdrew from the mountain.
The earth was yellow, and there was no life.
"What kind of summer is this, it's even more desolate than autumn. Ye Mu brushed aside the branches that covered him in front of him, and looked around for the traces of the monster.
"It's best not to take it too lightly, a monster that can directly affect the environment is at least a ghost. β
Artoria had been looking nervous since she had just gone up the mountain, and it seemed that she had already smelled danger after a hundred battles.
Although he had fought with monsters hundreds of times, Ye Mu still admired Artoria's rich experience, and he could judge the approximate strength of the enemy just from a little bit of information from the villagers, which was too rich.
"What are you afraid of, anyway, your strength is a half-saint. Ye Mu muttered quietly, but didn't dare to say it out loud, after all, Artoria is a serious person, if she hears what she says, she will inevitably start a fatal training for herself.
Because it was daytime, the monster was afraid of the sun and couldn't come out and run around, so the two searched for a while and didn't find anything, so they had no choice but to find a place to cook some food.
During the meal, Ye Mu was completely stunned, because Artoria's appetite was amazing, she ate almost ten catties of food alone, and drank a pot of Ye Mu's medicinal wine.
"Ah, it's full, it's full. Artoria rubbed her flat belly with satisfaction, and sat down on the floor very comfortably, completely devoid of the usual sternness.
Ye Mu saw it in his eyes and couldn't help but shake his head, this woman would only show such a cute appearance every time she was eating. Sure enough, a woman will only show her original appearance in front of food.
After eating and drinking, Artoria began to sleep and rest, and Ye Mu naturally became the one standing guard, but he did not waste this time, and took the opportunity to summon the bronze tripod to refine a bunch of second-grade pills.
Now there are only five kinds of pills that Ye Mu will refine, the first two are the Sabbath Pill and the Condensing Pill of the First Grade Pill, the Sabbath Pill is the pill that can make people sleep peacefully, and the Condensing Pill is the elixir that can keep people spirited.
After refining a Condensing Pill, Ye Mu put it in his mouth, chewed it several times before swallowing it, but in the end, he unconsciously stuck out his tongue and rinsed his mouth with medicinal wine, which was relieved from the unpalatable taste of the pill.
Although the effect of this condensing pill is good, but the taste is a little bitter, Ye Mu has tried to add different medicinal materials several times to improve the taste, but they all ended in failure, it seems that this prescription really can't be changed at will.
The remaining three are two second-grade pills and one third-grade pill, the third-grade pill is a qi tonifying pill, which can supplement the consumption of qi and blood power, and the medicinal power is stronger than directly devouring blood lines, but the medicinal effect is milder.
After refining four Qi Replenishing Pills, it was already evening, Ye Mu stretched his waist, did not wake up Artoria, but started a set of boxing techniques taught by Mo Xiaohe to himself, although there was no actual combat effect, but the effect of strengthening the body was still there.
After nightfall, there was silence all around, not even the sound of insects, but a faint whisper sounded in the dark.
"It's coming!"
Artoria suddenly opened her eyes, and a fierce colorful lion appeared behind her, suddenly turning into a two-handed sword and a cherry light, covering Artoria's body, and the silver armor on her body turned cherry pink.
In the next moment, a darkened figure rushed out of the woods shouting, "I'm hungry!"
Artoria turned into a cherry streamer, and the great sword in her hand flashed, and the figure was split in two, falling to the ground and flowing dark green liquid.
With a flick of the blood stains on the big sword in his hand, the big sword was suddenly as clean as ever.
"Is it solved?" all this happened too quickly, and as soon as Ye Mu reacted, the battle was already over. This is another time for him, he feels the gap in strength.
"Nope. Artoria said, straightening up, looking around, and said, "The information is wrong, there is more than one monster. β
As soon as her voice fell, a large number of humanoid monsters appeared in the dry woods around her.
"It's all. Artoria said nervously, "Although they are all early ghosts, this number should not be underestimated. Ye Mu, you stand behind me!"
Ye Mu pulled out his antler greatsword and stood back to back with Artoria, he could clearly feel the sense of oppression coming from Artoria's bodyβit was a kind of hierarchical coercion.
"Food ......"
A monster screamed and staggered over to the two of them, followed by countless identical monsters.
These monsters are different from the monsters that Ye Mu encountered before, these are like the zombies seen in the movie, they move slowly, and they look very demented, but their strength is surprisingly great - when Ye Mu understands this, he has already suffered.
"!" Ye Mu scolded, because the sword he cut out was grabbed by a monster in his hand, and he was thrown out with a hard pull.
At this moment, his brain went blank, and with tears of remorse in the corners of his eyes, he shouted: "I will never fight monsters again!"
Fortunately, after Artoria defeated the opponent besieging him strongly, she ran to Ye Mu's side to help and deal with the monsters besieging him.
"You just have to take care of yourself and don't move. Artoria obviously disliked Ye Mu's kindness and did bad things, so she grabbed him by the collar and threw him up casually, throwing him into the air.
"!" Ye Mu exclaimed.
Artoria slashed, and the monsters were quickly crushed, but she didn't let go of any of them, and killed them all.
After killing the last monster, Artoria's cherry armor and greatsword were gone, and she was back to her original form.
"Wake up, the battle is over. Artoria jumped fifteen meters high at once, grabbed Ye Mu hanging from the treetops in her hand, and put it on the ground.
Ye Mu shook his head several times, and then he staggered towards the corpses of those monsters, and the most important thing for Ye Mu to check the station and collect loot is the most important thing for Ye Mu.
But after examining several monsters, it was found that there was nothing but a puddle of rotten meat.
"It's all empty, what the hell is going on?" Ye Mu was puzzled.
"Those are just puppets, real monsters, they haven't appeared yet. Artoria explained.
Hearing this, Ye Mu was stunned. If a monster has a puppet, then it is a common thing, but if these golems have the strength of ghosts, the monster's strength must not be too weak. I can't say, it's going to be another big demon.
