To the northwest of the outskirts of the city, the upper Sain River runs through the city of Zeber. An area surrounded by a jungle on the green bank, and the river is wider and deeper than the rest.

Xia Zuo was standing on the east bank of the river, waiting quietly. From leaving the battlefield to arrive here, it was only half a minute, Long Ge's speed was outrageously fast, and Xia Zuo stroked the dark blue hair that was blown up by the wind.

The water bubbled up as if it were boiling, making the surface of the water appear more restless than the river itself.

With a bang, the huge metal room rushed out of the water, and the amphibious chariot moved ashore, setting off white waves along the way.

"That's it, my lord Xia Zuo." The Mithril vault glides through a wide groove in the ground and lands safely, and the sound of a dragon song can be heard from behind the vault.

She wiggles the tail of the waddling merfolk, splits, transforms into legs; The six gills on the side of the neck heal to smooth the skin.

Probably that's why she's wearing a leather dress, and after regaining her humanoid legs, Long Ge puts on the leather and Valkyrie steel leggings that she had taken off from her back before, both of which will hinder her legs from closing into a fishtail.

“…… It's hard work. Xia Zuo was still surprised by the way the half-container large metal room appeared just now. When I came, I heard Long Ge say that it sank to the bottom of the river, and I couldn't believe it.

"We're here to help." Long Ge walked over wet, his off-white hair hanging down like seaweed, dripping water on his broad shoulders.

She suddenly shuddered, shook her head, and the water sprinkled around couldn't help but make Xia Zuo close his eyes and move back, and some water droplets fell on his lower lip.

“... Don't you have to dry it off? Xia Zuo looked at Long Ge, who was not completely done, and said.

"Don't worry, my body temperature is very high, and it will dry out in a while. And the Marta people don't get sick as easily as other peoples, and I haven't coughed once in as long as I can remember. Long Ge was a little proud and clasped his hands.

"That's true." Xia Zuo clearly remembered that the first two times he was taken by Long Ge to fly, even through his clothes, Long Ge, who hugged him from behind, had a body temperature of more than 40 degrees.

In other words, in winter, she can also keep what she is wearing now.

The surface of Long Ge's body is bubbling with white gas produced by evaporating water.

"Do you have a way to open it?" Long Ge glanced helplessly at the huge box.

"I need to check it out."

Xia Zuo approached the main entrance of the vault and stroked it with his hand.

"Don't worry about it getting water, there's a magical membrane on its surface, indestructible."

"Well, you can see it."

On the surface, it is a form of magic pattern that Xia Zuo has never seen, after all, there are many types of sealing magic, and maybe you may not be familiar with all of them if you play a hundred weeks.

"I was a little ashamed before, it's not a box that can be solved with bare hands." Long Ge looked away embarrassedly.

"It's difficult, I don't have the corresponding desealing magic." As he spoke, Xia Zuo pulled out the Valkyrie Steel Sabre, "But I can try to destroy it directly." ”

But halfway through the sword, he stopped and hesitated for a moment.

"What's wrong?"

Xia Zuo inserted his sword back and chose to take out the Mithril sword he had just obtained from his bag, "The 'Angry Blow' will destroy the weapon, but of course it can't destroy my own. ”

"Oh~"

Staring straight at the Mithril Sword to check the attributes, although in terms of material, Mithril is better than Valkyrie Steel, but the Valkyrie Steel Sword with +14 is now more attributed to the Mithril Sword, and after weighing it, it was decided to sacrifice someone else's Mithril Sword.

"This sword looks good, my lord Xia Zuo, you don't think about keeping it, if you want to destroy it, why don't you use a more inferior weapon?" Long Ge leaned over and took a closer look, the surface of the Mithril metal exuded a mysterious luster.

"Inferior weapons, like iron swords? Although I also have it in my bag," Xia Zuo looked at Long Ge and shook his head, "The iron sword can't withstand the 'Angry Blow' stack, and when it is added to the 4th or 5th layer, the sword will start to shatter, and before I can attack, the weapon will self-destruct." ”

“…… I don't understand it, but it seems to be the case. Long Ge's index finger touched his lips and nodded blindly.

Xia Zuo felt that her demeanor was very similar to when she was in a science class.

"Then let's start stacking up now..."Xia Zuo looked around—the emptiness and silence, since Long Ge swooped down and fell to the ground with a desperate sense of oppression, all the small animals and monsters that might exist around him were hidden.

He glanced at Long Ge again, and she was the only one who could do this on the spot.

"Huh?"

"Attack me, Long Ge," Xia Zuo said suddenly, and at the same time blinked his eyes to activate the skill, "And if it is an attack of the level of a critical blow, it will not take effect if you flick me with your fingers or gently push me on the shoulder." ”

"W-What?" Long Ge looked surprised and covered his mouth, "How can I do that." ”

"Of course you have to do it, it's useless for me to punch myself myself."

Long Ge frowned, took a half step back and stood up straight, "I'm sorry my lord, I can't..."

"Attack me, it's an order."

As soon as Xia Zuo's voice fell, the curse mark on Long Ge's neck turned red.

The latter immediately punched Xia Zuo in the left chin, Xia Zuo dodged in time, and the back of his fist wiped his hair, but the punch made Xia Zuo's entire face feel a strong blow.

"Ahh What have I done!? Are you alright? After executing the first order, Long Ge panicked, stepped forward to check the other party's injuries, and beat his head with his fingers blaming himself.

Xia Zuo's face looked very solemn, and he didn't know if it was painful.

"My lord Xia Zuo?" Long Ge asked, "Is there something wrong with you?" Do you want to drink a healing potion, although I don't think it hurts you..."

"The layers don't stack." Xia Zuo sighed lightly.

"What stack?"

"Maybe that blow just now wasn't fatal enough, come again, Long Ge, take out your weapon this time and attack my vital point."

"No, I definitely can't this time!"

"Do as I command."

After giving the order, Long Ge decisively drew his spear and stabbed Xia Zuo's heart, so fast that Long Ge thought that he would definitely kill Xia Zuo.

But in fact, no, Xia Zuo had already dodged sideways before Long Ge reacted, and the place where Long Ge was going to stab was already empty.

As a result, the "Rage Strike" stack is still 0.

This made Xia Zuo fall into thought, and Long Ge threw the spear away, she scratched her head and feet, and said words of self-pity again and again.

The heavy spear instantly dented the soil.

Xia Zuo opened the skill bar and read the introduction of "Angry Strike" several times - a fatal blow from the enemy... This seems to be the point.

Long Ge is not his enemy, but what is the standard for judging the enemy?

In the gap between pondering, I glanced at the skill bar and the hotbar ...... "Hostile Enhancement", which seems to work, can it temporarily turn unrelated people into enemies?

"Long Ge, calm down." Xia Zuo persuaded Long Ge, who was squatting down with self-blame.

"No, my lord Xia Zuo... Why did I do that kind of thing just now..."

"Don't take it to heart, that's just my order, not your intention."

"Really... But. Long Ge didn't finish speaking.

"Are you ready?"

Xia Zuo winked at the "Hostile Enhancement", her eyes were instantly covered by red anger, and without saying a word, she picked up the spear and raised it high to the top of Xia Zuo's head.
