Chapter 41 (501) Reagan

"Can it be destroyed?" Chu Yue asked as she continued to run.

"Physical attacks are ineffective, and the corresponding thunder attribute magic must be used." Lifa replied.

After Lifa finished speaking, Chu Yue also happened to run in front of this wall and stopped.

"In other words, we can't do anything about it, can we?" Chu Yue asked.

"Yes, Dad, within the normal limits of the game." This time it was Chu Yue who answered Yui.

"Hmm......" Chu Yue seemed to be lost in thought, but she forgot to put Lifa down.

"Hey...... Chu Yue, put me down first......" Lifa blushed a little.

"Oh, I'm sorry." Only then did Chu Yue remember that her posture was a little ambiguous, so she quickly put Lifa down, and then said, "I'm wondering, why did they come to kill us." ”

"I don't know." "I don't get along much with the fire elves, and the only one I communicate with the most is with the Quentin family's client. ”

Chu Yue saw Lifa looking at herself, so she explained: "It's even more impossible that you came to me, after I entered the game, I only knew you." ”

"Impossible, right?" Lifa said directly.

However, Lifa immediately thought again: Chu Yue is a survivor of SAO, even if he was discharged from the hospital earlier than his brother Kiritani Kazuto, it should not be much earlier, and entering ALO must be a recent thing, so Chu Yue should not be lying.

However, if Chu Yue had only recently entered ALO, how could he have so much money to acquire Moonstone?! And he paid himself an extra 20,000?!

"Could it be the fire elf mercenaries hired by your enemies to kill you?" Chu Yue guessed again.

Chu Yue's words that sounded very reasonable interrupted Lifa's thoughts, and Lifa nodded: "It's possible." ”

"In this way, you can only fight......" Chu Yue pulled out his novice sword and said.

"Yes......" Lifa also drew the sword at her waist, but after noticing Chu Yue's weapon, she immediately showed a surprised expression.

Novice swords?!

Just as he wanted to ask Chu Yue, a message from Regan appeared in front of Lifa.

Unlike SAO players, who can only send emails, ALO players can communicate with each other in real time.

Over there, the team of twelve Fire Elves could already see it, and was speeding towards it.

Lifa was about to turn off this prompt, but Chu Yue said, "Take a look, I think this news should have something to do with our current situation." ”

Lifa nodded, opened the message from Regan, and looked at it.

"Lifa! Someone is going after you! It's a squad of fire elves gathered by the Quentin family! Chu Yue is not the one who bought your moon stone! Hurry up and escape! Be sure not to be killed! If you go back to Siyiruban because you were killed, there will be a big problem! ”

Lifa read the message from Reagan before it came out, and then said in surprise, "This ...... How did Reagan know about us? ”

"It seems that he is indeed a sharp little guy." Chu Yue praised Regan, and then said with a smile: "He's right, the top priority is not to die first." ”

"What the hell is going on?" Lifa was a little confused, "Why did the fire elves come to kill us?" ”

"Maybe, it's not to kill us......" Chu Yue saw that the fire elf team had stopped not far away, and it seemed that there was still an intention to negotiate.

"Not here to kill us?" Lifa also noticed that the fire elf stopped.

"I'm here to kill you." Chu Yue said.

Chu Yue's sudden change of words made Lifa tremble all over her body. Originally, she was paying close attention to the fire elf, but after hearing Chu Yue's words, Lifa slowly turned her head to look at Chu Yue.

However, unlike the imaginary expression, Chu Yue just smiled and stared at the fire elf not far away.

There is neither the treacherous preparation of crossing the river and demolishing the bridge, nor the seriousness of being strict in waiting for battle. That smiling expression seemed to be ...... I'm playing some fun game.

"Chu Yue?" Lifa couldn't help but call Chu Yue.

However, Chu Yue hadn't answered yet, and among the fire elves in front of him, a mage wearing a mage cloak that looked like a high-level one had come out. It seems that he also put the earth-based magic barrier just now.

"Mr. Cat Elf, we have no intention of going against you, our target is just that Wind Elf next to you."

Is it really just me?! Lifa's eyes widened in disbelief, and then she immediately turned her head to look at Chu Yue again.

"I'm sorry, but this lady is my current personal guide and bodyguard." Chu Yue replied with a smile, "If something happens to her, no one will take me to the World Tree." ”

Hearing Chu Yue say this, Lifa's face instantly turned red, and her heartbeat also accelerated and jumped.

It's a pity that because Chu Yue kept looking at the fire elf opposite, she didn't notice Lifa's situation.

"If you wish, I am willing to be your guide and bodyguard." The mage continued.

Lifa looked at Chu Yue again.

"Is it free?"

"Not ......"

"Then you BB hair!"

As soon as Chu Yue finished speaking, his body was like an arrow that had just left the string, and he instantly rushed towards this fire elf mage.

And when Lifa heard Chu Yue say this, time seemed to slow down dozens of times.

Lifa felt Chu Yue rushing away from her, and the wind she brought with her was blowing her long golden hair, and she was not only blushing, but also had a deer in her heart.

Chu Yue's instant attack caught this fire elf mage by surprise.

What made everyone even more unexpected was that Chu Yue held a novice sword, and at an almost invisible speed, after slashing at this high-level fire elf mage, this fire elf mage's body burned into a small red flame like a flame.

This is the death effect of the Fire Spirit, and the small flame that has become is called [Residual Fire], which is the player's soul perspective.

What happened?!

The remaining eleven fire elves suddenly had a commotion, Chu Yue's indistinct speed, the attack power of killing high-level mages in seconds, and the skillful killing techniques made this group of fire elves instinctively fearful.

"And ...... Eleven! ”

After Chu Yue finished speaking, his body once again rushed towards the remaining fire elves at an incredible speed.

"There are ...... left. Ten ......"

"Nine ......"

"Eight ......"

……

"The last one!" Chu Yue swung his novice sword and slashed the last fleeing fire spirit into a remnant of fire.

"Whew." After Chu Yue exhaled, she danced a sword flower and collected the sword.

All of this was seen by Lifa.

It's too strong!

It's incredible!

The fire elf mage who was able to release the earth-based magic barrier was actually killed by Chu Yue with a novice sword?! No matter how weak the defense of the fire elf mage is, it is impossible to be killed in an instant!

Not to mention that he also killed all the remaining fire spirits later! And without exception, all of them are spikes!

Among the remaining fire spirits, there are shield knights who are strong in defense!

Not only that, but the sword flower that Chu Yue danced last.

Ordinary people may not be able to see the doorway, but Lifa is different.

Naoba Kiritani has been practicing kendo since he was seven years old in elementary school, and he was ranked in the top 8 in the country when he was in junior high school, and he was selected to participate in the national competition in his first year of high school. He has now had eight years of kendo experience.

Chu Yue's last sword flower was not something that ordinary people could dance at all.

Even if Chu Yue is not a kendo master, he is definitely a swordsman with extremely rich experience in using swords.

This Chu Yue, this brother's friend, this handsome guy with long black hair, is so strong?!

It's not just strong in game attributes, it's really strong!

"In the end, how did you do it......" Lifa looked at Chu Yue in the distance with some incredulity, and said to herself.

"By the way, is this the effect of death in ALO?" Chu Yue asked Yui as she came over to Lifa.

"Different elves have different special effects for death." Yui replied, "The color of the remaining fire is also different, and the fire spirit happens to be red. ”

When she arrived at Lifa's side and saw Lifa's incredible expression, Chu Yue stretched out her hand and shook it in front of Lifa, and then said with a smile, "Scaring you?" ”

"Scared the hell out of me, really." "I can't even imagine how you did it......"

"I'll explain this to you later." Chu Yue said, "Let's ask Reagan first, what's going on." How much does he know? ”

"Ask now?" Lifa said, looking over at the twelve remaining fires.

"Then let's go to the city of Luguru." Chu Yue said.

The earth-based magic barrier just now had disappeared when the mage died.

"Hmm." Lifa nodded, this is indeed not the place to stay.

Chu Yue and Lifa walked towards Luguru together, and the remaining flames of these fire spirits disappeared as if they had burned out one by one.

The city of Luguru is entirely in the mountains, so the light is all the light of magic lamps. The city looks exceptionally beautiful because of the magic lights in various colors.

However, at this time, Lifa and Chu Yue didn't have the heart to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the city, so they found a big hotel and entered a private room.

However, at this time, there was time to reply to Regan, but I found that Reagan was offline.

However, before he went offline, he left a message for Lifa that "said on the offline phone".

"On the phone?" Lifa said strangely, "Isn't the game good......

"There are some things that words can't express clearly." Chu Yue said, "You just go offline and call him." ”

"Hmm." Lifa's mind was full of curiosity now, nodded and went offline.

Since this city is also a neutral area, your body will not disappear immediately after going offline, but this is a private room, so you don't have to worry about safety.

Naoba Kiritani logged out of the game, found the phone in his bedroom, and dialed Regan's phone, which is called Shin'ichi Nagata in reality.

"Hey, Nagata-kun?" The phone answered, "What the hell is going on?" ”

"Ah, you're finally calling." Shin'ichi Nagata said, "Really, I'm really worried about it, Naoba-chan ......"

"I happened to run into those guys when you sent me a warning message." Naoba Kiritani said.

"Huh?! Are you okay then?! ”

"It's okay, it's all settled." Kiritani Naoye said, recalling the scene where Chu Yue killed a group of fire elves in seconds.

"It's okay...... Nagata finally breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "Those fire elves don't just want to kill you! ”

"What do you mean? You start from the beginning. Naoba Kiritani asked Shin'ichi Nagata to explain slowly.

"Okay, okay...... I'll think about it......" Shin'ichi Nagata organized his language for a moment and said, "Actually, I felt something was wrong yesterday. The people of the Quentin family actually said that the boss of the cat elf broke the contract...... Naoba-chan, don't you think it's strange? ”

"Strange? Where is it strange? Naoba asked, "Didn't you say that the boss of the cat elf ran away without giving money after receiving the moon stone?" ”

"That's what the Quentin family said, but ......," said Shin'ichi Nagata, "as a member of the Quentin family, how could an old client make such a low-level mistake of being swallowed up and not getting the money?" ”

"That's right......" Naoba Kiritani remembered what happened to him and the client that day.

"And then, after that guy showed you a portrait of a cat elf, he didn't talk about it again, did he?" Shin'ichi Nagata said, "When I heard you say that, I suspected that guy was lying. ”

"Lying? But...... Why! Naoba Kiritani said, "If he lies, won't he ruin the reputation of the Quentin family?" Besides, the portrait of the cat elf does exist......"

"It's Mr. Chu Yue, isn't it?" Shin'ichi Nagata said, "Although I haven't seen that portrait, I have seen Mr. Chu Yue. Mr. Chu Yue's face is the kind of face that is very ordinary, so ordinary that you can't see it when you walk into the crowd. ”

"Hey! That's just what it looks like in other people's games! I don't know why, Naoba Kiritani argued for Chu Yue.

"That's the point! If that guy showed you a portrait like this, Naoba-chan would have forgotten it quickly after looking at it! ”

Naoba Kiritani was stunned for a moment.

"So, I feel that something is wrong, and since you left today, I have been using invisibility magic to follow the head of the Quentin family who is resident in Si Iluban."

"Then, I found out that the head of the Quentin family, who was resident in Si Yiluban, suddenly put on his cloak and disappeared when he walked into a small alley."

"I thought it was even more strange, so I went to investigate, only to find out that there was an entrance to the sewer in this small alley."

"After I also entered the sewers, I found that the person in charge saw in the sewers was actually from the fire elf territory, the fire elf from the Quentin family headquarters."

"That's weird! Obviously, they are very normal superiors and subordinates, and they only need to meet in Si Yiluban's city generously, why do they need to meet in the sewers, wearing an invisibility cloak? ”

"After listening carefully, I heard that they were actually trying to provoke the relationship between the wind elves and the cat elves, no wonder they chose to meet in this kind of place......"

"What?! Stir up the relationship between the wind elves and the cat elves?! Kiritani Naoba said in surprise for a moment.

"That's right." Shin'ichi Nagata said, "And what happened to you, Lifa, is one of the events they had planned for a long time. ”

However, Chu Yue's appearance disrupted a thing that was supposed to end. However, the person who made such a plan was really not an idle person, and immediately proposed another plan, which was to assassinate Lifa you! ”

"Assassinate me?!" Lifa was surprised again, but immediately understood: "I see...... What about you? Are you okay? ”

"I almost got discovered, but fortunately, after I heard that they were going to assassinate Lifa, I quickly sent you a message, and then went offline."

Reagan is also a wind elf, and when he goes under his own territory, his in-game body can disappear immediately.

"I see." Naoka Kiritani nodded, "Thank you, Nagata-kun." ”

"Well, it's great that you're okay." Shin'ichi Nagata said, "I've heard them say that they put a lot of effort into doing this......

"Yes, yes...... Kiritani Naoba smiled awkwardly, and said in his heart: What about the twelve fire spirits...... If it weren't for Chu Yue, how could he still be alive......

After hanging up the phone with Shin'ichi Nagata, Rifa sorted out what had happened.

In fact, whether it is Naoba Kiritani or Shin'ichi Nagata, they are both students who have been recommended by the school to go on to higher education. This is not something that ordinary students can obtain, which proves that both Naoba Kiritani and Shin'ichi Nagata are excellent students in all aspects.

It's just that Naoba Kiritani didn't find out about the conspiracy of the fire elves because of the authorities' confusion, and at this time, after listening to Shin'ichi Nagata's words, the ins and outs of the whole incident became clear.

The Fire Elves are currently the strongest race of Elves, so they have always wanted to conquer the World Tree. However, even the fire elves, if they want to attack the World Tree mission, they are still a little short of fire.

So, the fire elves want to get stronger. And the fastest way to make a race stronger is to occupy the territory of other elves. It's just that doing so can be called humiliating for the captured elves.

Adjacent to the territory of the fire elves is the wind elves who are not weak. And the wind elves also have a friendly relationship with the cat elves, if the fire elves declare war with the wind elves, the cat elves will definitely not sit idly by, and will deal with the fire elves together with the wind elves.

Therefore, if you want to occupy the territory of the wind elves, you must first provoke the relationship between the wind elves and the cat elves, so that the two elf races are not as friendly as they are now. After the relationship between the wind elves and the cat elves deteriorates, the fire elves can be broken one by one.

Under the grand strategy of the fire elves, the fire elves are carrying out more specific tactical moves. The actions of the Quentin family are an important part of this.

The Quentin family is one of the most prestigious trusting families among the fire elves. Between racial interests and merchant reputation, the Quentin family obviously chose racial interests, and I don't know if the leadership of the fire elves has given the Quentin family enough generous compensation.

As a wind elf, Lifa happened to meet a member of the Quentin family.

This client lied to Lifa that there was a cat elf who did not want to disclose personal information and wanted to buy a large amount of moonstone privately. Because the moonstone is only produced around Si Yiluban, it can be said to be a specialty of the wind elves, coupled with the good reputation of the Quentin family, and the buyer is a cat elf friendly with the wind elves, so Lifa does not have too many doubts.

Of course, this cat elf doesn't actually exist.

After Lifa had painstakingly collected enough three hundred moonstones to give to the client, the client didn't actually do anything.

And when he saw Lifa again, the client told Lifa that the cat elf took the moon stone, but did not give money and ran away, turned his back on the wind elf and the Quentin family, and was blacklisted by the Quentin family.

Because this client is also a victim, the kind-hearted Lifa does not suspect this client at all, but hates the "cat elf who deceived herself and the Quentin family".

In order to make Lifa believe in himself, the client also showed Lifa the portrait of the cat elf, and told Lifa that if the cat elf could still be found, he could ask him for the money back from Moonstone, and the Quentin family would not participate anymore.

But in fact, these moonstones were swallowed by the Quentin family!

The portrait of this cat elf is actually a very ordinary portrait drawn by the fire elf looking for a painter, and it is difficult to leave an impression. The average person will quickly forget it after taking a look.

However, Lifa was very lucky and met Chu Yue the next day.

Chu Yue's face was an ordinary face that was so featureless. It may not be the same as in the portrait, but it feels the same - the face of a passerby.

It was also because time had passed not long ago, so after Lifa saw Chu Yue, she decided that Chu Yue was the cat elf who deceived her moon stone.

However, what no one expected was that Chu Yue would actually pay for these moon stones! You must know that these moonstones are still in the Quentin family's warehouse!

Because many people saw it that night, the Quentin family also saw it.

Chu Yue, the person who appeared unexpectedly, became a big wrongdoer, not only made Lifa believe that this was the cat elf, but also shocked the Quentin family.

Originally, in order to provoke the relationship between the wind elves and the cat elves, he poured dirty water on the cat elves in Si Yiluban, but the appearance of Chu Yue disrupted this plan.

So, after knowing about the affairs of the house, the person who planned this incident planned a follow-up event - sending someone to assassinate Lifa.

If Lifa died, or died on the trip with the cat elf, then the Quentin family could spread rumors that the cat elf was traveling with the wind elf after the deal, but the cat elf killed the wind elf halfway.

Because Lifa and Chu Yue did have a conflict that night, and then reconciled through a transaction, this is what many wind elves have seen with their own eyes, so "the cat elf hated the threat of the wind elf that night and killed the wind elf", such a statement will not arouse the suspicion of others at all.

Originally, the follow-up plan was also very perfect, because the people of the Quentin family thought that as long as the team sent to assassinate only killed Lifa and did not kill Chu Yue, the relationship between Lifa and Chu Yue would definitely break down, so Lifa would not take the initiative to refute the rumors.

However, what the people of the Quentin family didn't expect was that this secret conversation of their own was overheard by a wind elf named Regan!

No one thought that Chu Yue, a cat elf with a novice weapon, would completely wipe out this twelve-person assassination team?! And it's still a spike?!
