The four of them hid behind a rock at the edge of the pit and secretly observed for almost an hour, but they never saw the blue gem monster above their heads, as stated in the mission.

[Shouldn't it really be eaten by Warcraft?] 】

After waiting for so long and not finding the target, Liu Xianyu also began to be a little suspicious, and at this time, an orange orange who was silently observing suddenly spoke.

[It's possible to hide under the rocks over there-]

Tachibana pointed to a rock in the center of the pit, and only after a few people did he find that there was a hole about a meter wide in diameter under the shadow of the rock.

[Could it be that inside that cave is the lair of the gem monster?] 】

Just when Liu Xianyu was so suspicious, it happened that at this time, a gem monster crawled out of the cave slowly, and its speed became a little faster after shining into the sun, but it only climbed a few meters forward and stopped.

[Sure enough! It's possible that the target of the mission was also hidden in the lair and did not come out. 】

Liu Xianyu felt more and more that his guess was right.

[Then what are we waiting for, Captain Salted Fish takes the lead, let's rush in quickly!] 】

Jade stabbed Liu Xianyu who was lying next to him with her arm.

[Stupid, that hole is so small, there may not even be room to swing a sword inside, what if we go down and get blocked inside? 】

Liu Xianyu dispelled the idea of jade in one sentence, although the gem monster is not a powerful magical beast, but the metal in the soil has been devouring for many years, making the scales on the surface of the gem monster very strong, and they use themselves as cannonballs by jumping, and the attack method is also very tricky once it is blocked in a narrow space.

[It's better to send someone to lure those gem monsters out, anyway, those gem monsters don't pose any threat except for impact, and when the mission goal comes out, we will kill it and run away!] 】

Emerald spoke her mind.

【…… Maybe that's really possible, but with so many gem monsters, Thelyss shouldn't be able to handle it with just one shield, right? 】

Liu Xianyu looked at the dozen or so gem monsters of different sizes below, the large ones were close to one meter and the small ones were half a meter large, which was not the number that Icatelis could defend with a shield alone.

[Indeed...... I don't have confidence in so many quantities. Moreover, the scales of the gem monster are highly resistant to physical attacks, and Tangerine's bow and arrow may not be able to penetrate the target's defenses. 】

Ikatris spoke up another question.

[I can try meow ......]

As he spoke, Tachibana took out an enchanted magic-piercing feather arrow from the quiver on his back, and then said a few words in his mouth, only to hear a tense bowstring vibrate, and a gem monster below was shot and rolled several times, and the scales on its body also collapsed a few pieces, and it curled up in panic and rolled into the hole.

[Almost...... If you can target a weak point, you might be able to kill. 】

Tachibana said his feelings objectively.

[We can't take risks, we only have one chance, and if we escape, we may never find our target again.] 】

Ikatrius stopped him by holding down Tachibana's hand.

[Wait a minute, Thelis, I remember you used the Holy Light Gun that took the concept of penetration to the extreme, right?] 】

[I think so too, the magic of the Holy Light Lance, the power of that is absolutely enough, but I can't be distracted when I use it, let alone defend against the attacks of so many gem monsters. 】

[No, you don't need to defend it-]

Liu Xianyu's eyes turned, and he suddenly looked at Jade, with a wicked smile on the corner of his mouth.

[What are you doing, Captain Salted Fish, I don't know why your eyes now reveal a bad breath! ] 】

Jade was suddenly shivered by Liu Xianyu's eyes.

[This is for your magic book, and you should use it for some purposes.] 】

Liu Xianyu suddenly showed a gentle smile and looked at Jade.

[Didn't you also say when you fought the six-eyed monster before, you won't lose to anyone in a single round of defensive magic, so you have five seconds to prepare defensive magic, Jade Archmage.] 】

[Wait a minute, I have a bad premonition. 】

【5.4——】

[Don't come here! 】

Liu Xianyu reached out and grabbed Jade's shoulder.

【3.2——】

Jade struggled to stand up, but when it came to strength, she was no match for Liu Xianyu at all.

[Don't-]

【1！ 】

The world in front of her spun rapidly, and after Jade came back to her senses, she found that she had been thrown directly by Liu Xianyu to the center of the big pit below, and the gem monster who was originally basking in the sun was attracted to her.

[Ahaha-I'm sorry to disturb you in the sun, I'll leave!] 】

Emerald stretched out a hand and touched the back of her head as if she was disturbed, and opened her legs as if she were running, but the gem monsters seemed to be a little dissatisfied with this uninvited guest.

Squeak~ The gem monsters began to curl up and pose as if they were ready to attack.

[Not good! 】

As soon as Jade saw the strange appearance of these gems, she knew that she could be pitted by Liu Xianyu this time.

【Barrier of Light!】 】

Bang--

Seeing that it was too late to run, Emerald simply used a defensive magic, and the gem monster that spun and flew over suddenly crashed into the translucent barrier, and then like firecrackers, one after another, the solid barrier was still strong around Emerald after experiencing a strong impact.

[Sure enough, this guy still has a set of defensive magic.] 】

After seeing that Jade was safe and sound, and after defending against the impact of the gem monster, Liu Xianyu nodded with satisfaction, and on the other side, Ikatris, who was originally ready to rescue Jade at any time, also let go of the shield in his hand, put his hands on his chest, and began to chant the incantation in a low voice:

[The dawn that pierces the darkness, sinks the evil justice, and the invincible scorching light is at my disposal......]

Unlike Jade and Liu Xianyu, two freaks who have superhuman talents in some ways, Ikatriis needs to carefully construct a spell model if she wants to use the concept level or concentrate on chanting spells.

Bang!

[Go over there!] Don't come here! Captain Salted Fish, no more! 】

As the barriers around Jade began to crack as more than a dozen gem monsters attacked, she hurriedly released several different defensive spells, but the attacks that the gem monsters stacked up in numbers were not to be underestimated, and the layers of protection were broken.

The gem monsters piled up around the jadeite, and seemed to find that their attacks could not work, and gave up the impact attack method and began to press the jade under them like a hill, and the more daring gem monsters opened their mouths and began to bite the small cloak behind the jadeite, and they kept screaming as they did so, calling for more reinforcements from the cave.

The gem monsters were piled up tightly around the jadeite, and because the distance to the protective barrier was too close, the magic that required the casting distance could no longer be used, and the jade could only use the water guardian close to her body, and the light blue shimmer circulated on the surface of her skin, reminding Liu Xianyu of the time when she was used by the soft mud monster to use her tentacles to wheel a big windmill in the sky, and at that time, she was also like this by the soft mud monster as a sandbag to hit the tree Jade was still unharmed.

[Hey, don't bite my clothes!] 】

Emerald struggled to salvage her cloak from the innermost part of the gem monster.

[I'm holding on for a while, but the goal hasn't come out yet.] 】

Liu Xianyu stared at the entrance of the cave one after another, and the new gem monsters that appeared one after another still didn't see the blue mission target above his head.
