In the future, it will be updated on weekends.

It may be one watch, or it may be two watches, after all, the weekend ......

……

……

Due to the environmental characteristics of the Water Vein Forest, it is impossible to build a bonfire, so only a few lighting crystals can be put together here to be used as a temporary resting point.

Chu Yue and Celika sat on either side of the illuminating crystal, but neither of them said a word.

Chu Yue was there bowing her head and writing something on the paper, while Sirika was sitting opposite Chu Yue and looking at the few lighting crystals between the two.

In addition to illuminating the light, the Illumination Crystals also dispel surrounding monsters, and the effect is the same as that of torches, except that the color is blue, the brightness is not as good as that of torches, and the temperature is not high.

So, when using lighting crystals, there is another problem, and that is......

Silica's stomach growled.

You must bring your own cooked ingredients, because raw ingredients collected in the wild cannot be grilled.

Hearing the sound of Silika's belly, Chu Yue raised her head and looked at Silica.

Celica blushed again.

I always feel that I have been laughed at by Chu Yue since I met Chu Yue...... Celica said helplessly.

Moreover, Chu Yue is still a competitor in his own mission......

"Didn't you bring any food?" Chu Yue asked Celica.

"That ......" Celica glanced elsewhere, "Actually, I brought ......"

"It's raw ingredients, isn't it?" Chu Yue said decisively.

"I, I forgot about the Water Vein Forest......"

"Give." Chu Yue handed Celika a piece of bread.

"Hmm......" I didn't expect Chu Yue to be so direct, but it made Sirika hesitate a little.

"If you think I've added something else to the bread, you can say no." Chu Yue said.

"No......" Celica smiled, but still took Chu Yue's bread.

However, looking at the bread, Sirika did not dare to bite again.

Could it be that this guy really poisoned the bread? And want to find Ikana while I'm asleep to complete the mission?

Wait a minute...... If you dore me, maybe it's not Ikana, it's me! Maybe I'll be violated by this guy!

"Your inner drama is really rich." Chu Yue suddenly said with a smile.

"Eh, eh?!" Celica cried out in surprise.

Chu Yue smiled at Sirika, took out another piece of bread, a bottle of cream, added the cream to the bread herself, and then said, "Do you want it?" ”

"What is this?" Celica asked Chu Yue.

"Cream." Chu Yue said, frowned, and asked, "Don't you know the cream?" ”

Noticing that Chu Yue was frowning, Sirika thought that Chu Yue was unhappy, shrunk her head, and did not speak.

"What's wrong?" Chu Yue saw that Sirika suddenly showed such an expression, and asked strangely.

"No, it'......s nothing," replied Celica, and to hide her embarrassment, she ate her bread.

Chu Yue didn't eat the bread, but took out the paper and continued to write.

Unexpectedly, Chu Yue didn't eat bread, and suddenly Sirika didn't dare to eat it again.

However, Chu Yue wrote a few lines, and then took back the paper and ate the bread.

"Huh? What happened to you? Chu Yue saw Celika's appearance and asked.

"No, it's nothing......" Silica said.

"Sure enough, if you don't add something, it's hard to eat the bread." Chu Yue said, "If you don't like cream, I have other seasonings here, ketchup or something...... What flavor do you want? ”

"No, cream...... It's not ......," Silica said.

Chu Yue nodded, and didn't ask Silica why she refused just now, but just handed the cream bottle to Silica again.

"Oh, I'll give you that bottle of cream, I've got a lot more." Chu Yue said to Silica.

"Hmm......" Sirika hesitated, but accepted the bottle of cream.

After dinner, Sirika originally wanted to talk to Chu Yue, but Chu Yue lowered her head and wrote something again, and Sirika was embarrassed to interrupt Chu Yue.

I don't know when, Celica gradually fell asleep.

By the time I woke up again, it was already very light.

The lighting spar in front of him was gone, and Chu Yue was gone.

"Ahh It won't be ......! Celica jumped to her feet and ran to the side.

However, just after running a few steps, he collided with Chu Yue.

Moreover, it happened that Sirika was knocked back two steps and fell into a small shallow pool.

"Huh?" Chu Yue saw that she bumped into Silika, and hurriedly went over and helped Silica up: "Are you okay?" Why are you running? ”

Seeing that it was Chu Yue, Sirika lowered her head and blushed again, completely misunderstanding Chu Yue!

However, this bow, Celica found that he was wet with a large piece of his body, and the wet clothes stuck to his body, and there was a very erotic feeling......

"No, don't look at it!" Celica immediately said to Chu Yue.

"Hmm......" Chu Yue glanced down at Celika's body, and then said, "What's the matter, it's not that the upper body is wet...... Well, but if the upper body is wet, it doesn't look good, after all, it's an airport......"

Chu Yue didn't expect that as soon as this sentence came out, Sirika smashed it with a fist!

Looking at Celica who looked at her angrily, Chu Yue suddenly understood that she was another girl who cared about her flat body again!

"I'm sorry!" Chu Yue immediately said to Silica, "In order to apologize, please accept my gift......

Looking at the transaction request sent by Chu Yue, Sirika nodded and accepted.

A nice piece of equipment......

Celica snorted and accepted.

After replacing it immediately, Sirika found that this attribute can only be said to be a good piece of equipment, and the appearance is so good-looking!

He, a male player, actually carries such good-looking equipment with him, maybe it is reserved for the female players who are close to him......

Thinking of this, Celika was a little ashamed again, and said to Chu Yue, "Thank you......"

"Nothing." Chu Yue replied, looked at the clothes on Celika and nodded, and said, "However, since you are also awake, let's go and complete the task together." ”

The equipment in SAO will automatically adapt to the player's body after being worn on the body, so you don't have to worry about it and the problem of not fitting well.

"Hmm." Sirika nodded.

But......

Sirika and Chu Yue circled around the Water Vein Forest, but they still didn't find the slightest trace of Ikana.

It stands to reason that Ikana is a water dragon, she must be living in the Water Vein Forest, and it is time to give birth, and her body should be very huge, and she shouldn't have turned around and didn't find it.

"What should I do, Chu Yue......" Celica asked Chu Yue.

"Hmm......" Chu Yue lowered her head and thought for a while, and then said, "Since Ikana is hatching the little dragon, even if she is not a descendant for herself, as a water dragon, she must be in the most suitable water vein forest." ”

"But we've already finished finding the Water Vein Forest......"

"But don't forget, if you don't do anything about it, both Ikana and the little dragon will be in danger." Chu Yue said, "Therefore, Ikana should arrange a certain enchantment, just to prevent the wicked. This barrier should be a test for us by Bina and Ikana. ”

"Enchantment......" Celica thought for a moment and said, "Ah! That's right! When Bina gave us the task, she said, 'Alright, let's go, go to the water veins forest behind the cross hill...... Where Ice and Fire Meet...... 'So that's the place where ice meets fire'? ”

"Hmm." Chu Yue nodded, "'But...... How can there be fire in the Water Vein Forest? ”

"Well...... "Silica," said Celica, "there are no torches here." ”

"Anyway, this is the only clue now." Chu Yue said, "Let's look in the forest again and see if there is anything related to ice and fire." ”

"Hmm." Sirika nodded, "That's it." ”

The water vein forest is very large and is unlikely to be searched in a day. Chu Yue and Silika came to the Water Vein Forest yesterday, and it took two days to search.

Therefore, they searched around the Water Vein Forest again, and on the third day, Chu Yue and Silika got the result: they did not encounter ice and fire at all.

Not only is there no fire, but the temperature in the Water Vein Forest is actually not very low, and even ice has not been seen.

On the east side of the Watervein Forest, there is an iceberg, but it is a little far from the Watervein Forest, and it is impossible for Ikana to choose that place as a place to hatch the dragons.

At night, Chu Yue and Sirika were on the eastern periphery of the Water Vein Forest, resting watching the icebergs in the distance.

"I've been looking for another day, but it doesn't work at all......" Celica said with some frustration, "Could it be that we guessed wrong?" ”

"Probably not......" Chu Yue said, "Bina didn't say anything else......

"Hmm......" Celica said no more, resting against the tree.

Chu Yue, on the other hand, stared at the iceberg in the distance and thought about something.

Is that so? Chu Yue suddenly thought of something in her heart, but she was not sure.

"Let's go to bed early today." Chu Yue said to Silica.

"Huh? Don't write anything anymore? Celica asked Chu Yue.

When she was resting two nights ago, Chu Yue had been writing something.

"Nope." Chu Yue said, "Let's rest early today." ”

"Okay." Sirika nodded, closing her eyes and getting ready for bed.

I don't know how long I slept, but Sirika heard someone call her name and opened her eyes in a daze.

"Chu Yue...... "Celica rubbed her eyes, "It's not dawn...... What are you doing......"

"Yes, of course...... Night Raid. Chu Yue suddenly looked at Celica with a smile and said.

Celica suddenly woke up in fright.

"Haha, just kidding." Chu Yue saw Sirika's reaction and smiled, "I thought of a possibility, let's go and see it now." ”

"Why go in the middle of the night! Really! Celica was teased by Chu Yue again, and it was still in the middle of the night, so she said with some annoyance.

"You'll find out when you go." Chu Yue didn't answer, just said so.

There was no way, Celica had no choice but to stretch, yawn, and got up to set off with Chu Yue.

Looking at the time, it is already the second half of the night, and it should not be long before dawn.

Chu Yue and Silika walked into the Water Vein Forest together, and after a while, they saw the rising sun.

The iceberg is east of the water vein forest, and the sun rises from the east. In the Water Vein Forest, you can just see the sun rising from the iceberg.

"This is the time!" Chu Yue said to Sirika, "Quick! ”

Celica didn't understand what Chu Yue meant, but she hurriedly followed Chu Yue.

Soon, the two were at a pool.

Chu Yue looked left and right, and then said, "It should be here." ”

"Here?" Cerica asked.

"This pool should be Ikana's barrier." Chu Yue said.

"Huh?!" Celica said in surprise, "Chu Yue, how do you know? ”

"The 'junction of ice and fire' is not found inside the Water Vein Forest, but it is on the outside, and the 'Junction' is cut in the Water Vein Forest."

"Uh...... Still don't get it. Sirika said.

"'Ice' is the iceberg, and 'fire' is the sun." Chu Yue said, "The junction between the sun and the iceberg is the shadow of the iceberg in the water vein forest. ”

"Shadow!!" Sirika finally understood, "However, the iceberg is so big, how can you be sure that Chu Yue is this pool?" ”

"It's simple, the highest part of the iceberg." Chu Yue said, "Here, it happens to be where the shadow of the highest part of the iceberg shines out from the sun is located. ”

"Then why is the sun rising and not setting?" Celica asked again.

Chu Yue held her forehead, "How stupid are you...... Taiyuan falls from the west, and there are no icebergs in the west......"

"Hmm......" Celica scratched her head, embarrassed again, but asked again, "So, what do we do next?" ”

"Jump." Chu Yue said, "This pool is definitely deeper than it seems. ”

"Jump......" Celica looked at the pool, a little hesitant.

"Then I'll jump first." Chu Yue said, "However, if I meet Ikana first...... Hehe. ”

Chu Yue's last "hehe" made Sirika pout unhappily.

Without saying anything more, Chu Yue jumped off the small pool with a puff.

Sure enough, the area of this pool is not very large, but it is surprisingly deep.

Not long after Chu Yue jumped down, Celica also jumped down.

After Chu Yue waited for Sirika to come over, she pointed down.

Celica nodded, and the two of them swam together towards the depths of the pool.

In SAO, there is an air groove when swimming, and when the air groove is gone, it will lose blood, which is the same setting as in other games.

However, not long after swimming, Chu Yue and Silika swam out again.

At the bottom of the pool, swim out of the pool and into another dimension.

This space allows you to breathe normally, but when you move, you feel the same as in the water.

In addition, there seems to be no gravity and buoyancy here, and if it does not move, it will neither rise nor sink.

"That's amazing......" Celica said.

"Well, the space here should be a special area." Chu Yue said, "Let's go, let's go over there and have a look." ”

On the other side, there was a place that emitted a sky blue light, and Chu Yue and Sirika swam towards it together.

As Chu Yue and Celika swam over there, they gradually discovered that there seemed to be a battle going on in this place that emitted azure light!

Chu Yue and Silika sped up.

After getting a little closer, I finally knew what was going on.

The blue glow was a huge water dragon, which was probably Bena's friend, Ikana.

And around Ikana, there are quite a few monsters attacking around Ikana.

However, there is a little dragon hidden under Ikana's body that is about to hatch successfully, and there is no way to effectively counterattack these monsters, just lying there, bearing the monster's attack with a single face.

"Stop!" As soon as Sirika got closer, she shouted loudly in this direction, drawing her weapon and preparing to join the battle.

Chu Yue was the same, pulled out her weapon and began to kill monsters.

Ikana also noticed Chu Yue and Silika's approach, and sent a cry for help towards Chu Yue and Silica.

The level of these monsters is not high, but there are too many of them, and Chu Yue and Sirika can only try their best to reduce the number of these monsters.

It didn't take long for the monsters to seem to feel the threat of Chu Yue and Silica, and began to give up attacking Ikana, instead gathering together in one place.

As the monsters gathered, countless monsters began to turn into a huge boss about the size of Ikana.

"Boss!" Chu Yue said with some surprise.

As soon as Chu Yue finished speaking, the blood bar and level on the boss were also displayed...... It was supposed to be like this.

However, the boss's health bar and level are not displayed, and instead is a hexagonal "unknown" sign.

This means that the level of the boss exceeds that of Chu Yue and Silica's recognition skills! This is at least the level of the boss on the 60th floor!

"It's not going to be easy now." Chu Yue said solemnly.

"Unknown level? This...... Chu Yue, what should we do? Celica asked Chu Yue.

"Run." Chu Yue said.

"Huh?" Celica looked at Chu Yue.

"This level, no matter what, it is impossible to defeat!" Chu Yue said, "Do you want to die?!" ”

"But......" Celica looked back at Ikana, who was still hatching the dragon.

"I'm sorry, I don't want to risk my life on a mission." After Chu Yue finished speaking, she no longer paid attention to Sirika and Ikana, and directly turned around and swam back towards the way she came.

"Chu Yue!" Celica called Chu Yue, but Chu Yue didn't reply.

Celica watched Chu Yue's departure blankly, and suddenly felt the corners of her mouth salty.

"This is ......"

Celica touched the corners of her mouth and found that she didn't know when her tears flowed out, but she didn't feel it at all......

"Begging, hate, why am I crying......" Celica wiped away her tears, looked at Chu Yue, who was almost invisible, gritted her teeth, and rushed to the middle of Ikana and the boss.

"I won't give up until the end!" Celica said, holding her weapon, staring at the big boss.

The boss was provoked by Sirika, howled, and slashed at Sirika with a knife.

At this moment, Sirika suddenly felt a blur in front of her eyes, and then her surroundings became warmer.

The boss's knife didn't slash at Sirika, but only on something on the periphery, and it didn't do any damage to Sirika at all.

"This is ......"

It's a bubble, and Ikana spits out a bubble at Sirika, protecting her.

Sirika glanced back at Ikana, and received a soft cry from Ikana, as if cheering for Celica.

"Hmm!" Sirika nodded at Ikana, then lunged towards the monster.

As soon as the battle began, it reached a stalemate.

Sirika got Ikana's invincible BUFF, but Sirika's level is too low, although I can't see the BOSS's health bar, I don't know how much damage it has done to the BOSS, but it's definitely not enough for the BOSS to stuff his teeth.

After a while, I don't know if it's because I feel that there is no hope of winning if I continue to fight, or because it's time to merge, and after the boss howls in pain, it scatters into countless mobs.

This time, the mobs did not attack Ikana again, and fled in all directions.

Soon, only Ikana and Celika were left.

"Great! Win! Sirika cheered excitedly and swam towards Ikana.

"Are you alright?" Sirika asked Ikana, "The ...... You're Ikana, aren't you? ”

The azure dragon nodded.

"Great!" Sirika said, "It was Mentor Bina who asked me to come to you. And that ugly Chu Yue! Hum! He escaped from the battle. ”

Ikana nodded, and stuck out her tongue to lick Sirika.

"Hey, hey, hey." Sirika smiled, thinking that she would definitely teach Chu Yue a good lesson after she went back!

At this time, the azure light on Ikana's body suddenly dazzled, and these lights seemed to be gradually becoming smaller! Converge underneath Ikana's body.

"Could it be ......" Celica suddenly became a little excited.

That's right, Ikana's little dragon is about to hatch!

After all the light from Ikana's body shifted to the egg under her, Ikana flew up.

The egg, which glowed brightly, began to crack under the watchful eyes of Ikana and Silica......

……

After Chu Yue swam out of the pool, she did not leave, but leaned against the tree on the side and waited.

After a while, there seemed to be a sound in the pool.

Chu Yue looked down from the pool and found a blister floating.

"Here we are." Chu Yue said.

Inside the blister, of course, is Silica, and the little dragon who has just been born.

It seems that after completing the mission, Ikana also sent Sirika and Xiaolong together.

"Ahh Chu Yue! Celika came out of the pool and saw that Chu Yue was still on the shore, and immediately became angry: "You bastard! I escaped alone! ”

"Hahaha, yes." Chu Yue admitted it without shame, and laughed.

"Humph! However, I can do it alone! Sirika smugly, "Look! ”

The little dragon shouted at Chu Yue, and spit out a small bubble towards Chu Yue.

However, this dragon was too small, and its cry was small, and the bubbles did not harm Chu Yue.

"Congratulations." Chu Yue smiled and said, "However, I didn't expect the newly-born little dragon to be so small." ”

It was only about the size of Chu Yue's palm, and it didn't seem to be able to fly yet, and he had been standing on Silika's shoulder until now.

"But ......" Celica stared at Chu Yue: "Why are you still here?" What else do you want to do?! ”

Hearing that Celika's tone of voice was not good, Chu Yue sighed helplessly and said, "Really, I suggest that you go to the church on the first floor to study first......

Before she finished speaking, Sirika had already thrown a dagger at Chu Yue and stuck it in Chu Yue's head......

However, this was of course a long-range sword technique, and the damage caused to Chu Yue was very small.

Chu Yue looked at the system message she received that she could legitimately fight back, and sighed again: "Okay, I shouldn't laugh at you. But it's all now, and you should guess that I deliberately gave Xiaolong to you, right? ”

Celica was stunned for a moment, and then finally showed an incredible expression, looking at Chu Yue in disbelief.
