Chapter 19: Doubts

"So, what do we do?"

"Well, let's test it first, after all, we don't know how much stronger the monsters on this layer are than the first layer."

Pulling out the sword from behind his back, He Yuan looked around.

"Asuna, there are exactly two of them, let's be careful."

"Hmm."

Asuna followed He Yuan's finger and saw that by a small river on the plains, two bison were drinking water.

It took nearly ten minutes for the two of them to carefully bypass the other herds and come to the river.

"Asuna, I'll go up and try it first, if it's dangerous, you run first, I'll find a way to get rid of them."

"If it's not dangerous, just one for each person, no problem, right?"

"Hmm."

Clenching the spandexter in her hand, Asuna nodded.

After successfully conquering the boss of the first layer, unconsciously, the dominance of the two seems to have changed.

Of course, neither He Yuan nor Asuna paid much attention to this.

"Moo~"

"About five meters?"

Looking at the bison who began to be vigilant, He Yuan silently calculated in his heart.

Since they arrived just now, they have avoided a total of three herds, the group with the largest vigilance range has a total of five, almost twenty meters, and the two herds of three are ten meters.

The two, on the other hand, did not begin to attack until they were close to the range of five meters.

Obviously, the size of the herd is a major factor.

As He Yuan approached, a bison that was closer to He Yuan lowered his head, his forefeet kept digging the grass, and his horns began to glow with yellow skill light.

When the yellow light completely occupied the two horns, the bison staggered to the ground and launched an attack on He Yuan.

"Charge?"

With his right foot slightly behind his left foot, He Yuan placed the sword horizontally in front of him, and his left hand was placed on the sword body a quarter of the way from the tip of the sword.

"Block!"

"Phew!"

The sound of the horns colliding with the sword body sounded, and the impact caused He Yuan's feet to slide backwards on the grass for nearly fifty centimeters.

"The attack power is higher than that of the wolf." Stopping his figure, He Yuan's heart silently thought, "But ......"

"It's too sluggish!"

Turning sideways slightly, the point where the sword body touches the horns is instantly tilted, and with the strength of the bison in the "charge" state, he avoids the straight-line attack range of the skill.

And then......

"Sonic Impact!"

The bison and He Yuan were staggered, and with the assistance of the system, the glowing long sword cut a huge grid-like wound from the corner of the bison's eyes to the back of the buttocks, and the bison's blood volume dropped by more than half in an instant.

"Well, the defense is about twice as high as that of the wild wolf in the first layer, and the amount of blood is one-third more."

"Of course, because there is only one 'charge' skill with a directional rush, agility is a lot worse than that of skeleton warriors, so in general, it is similar to the skeleton warriors in the first layer of the maze area."

Having dodged the attack of the second bison, He Yuan said to Asuna who was five meters away.

"No problem, right? Asuna? ”

"Hmm."

Nodding, Asuna stopped in front of the first bison, "No problem, as long as you avoid the dash skill, attacking from the side is much easier than dealing with skeleton warriors." ”

"That's right."

Stunned for a moment, He Yuan smiled.

What's wrong with you? What strength does Asuna don't know?

These bison, unless they are besieged by four or five at the same time using the "Charge" skill, it is really unlikely that they want to hurt Asuna.

"So, let's start leveling up!"

……

"Well, I'm tired."

Killing the bison in front of him, He Yuan opened his hands, and the whole person suddenly leaned back and lay on the grass.

Turning his head to look, the dark sky dyed the entire grassland pale yellow, and the sound of running water made the quiet night sky a little more noisy.

In the distance, the bison mooed and stabbed brighter in the night.

In an instant, the akane sky, the long maroon hair, and the white meteor were like a dreamy painting, imprinted on He Yuan's heart.

Even the fragments of the monster after its death were like stars, dotting the girl's surroundings.

"Asuna, take a break and eat something first!"

Although I want this picture to be dependent on for a while, even he is tired like this, presumably the person who has never screamed tired is even more unbearable than himself, right?

Hearing He Yuan's voice, Asuna pulled the long hair on her forehead behind her ears, looked up at the sky, and walked to the place where He Yuan was lying and sat down with her knees hugged.

"Na He Yuan, is it really okay for us to be like this?"

"Huh? What the? ”

He Yuan was stunned for a moment, unable to understand what Asuna meant.

"Well, what I'm talking about is, is it really good for us to level up like this?"

Curled up, with her chin resting on her forearm, Asuna muttered, "Look, we level up, and the most important thing is to raid the boss, right?" ”

"However, judging from the strategy experience of the first-tier boss, teamwork is necessary if you want to successfully attack the boss."

"So, why do we level up separately and not together? In that case, switching positions or something, will it be better than when you were on the first layer? ”

The sound of rushing water couldn't stop the whispers in Asuna's mouth, and the long maroon hair dancing in the wind couldn't stop the blankness in her eyes.

He Yuan is very strong, this Asuna knows.

The first time they met, Asuna thought that she was a rookie player, just like herself, facing the fear of dying at any time, and even fearing to fight Bumblebee.

But when we met again three days later, He Yuan showed her level, and Asuna at that time knew that He Yuan was definitely not simple, you know, she had been sleepless for nearly half a month before she reached level 11.

No matter how powerful He Yuan is, it is impossible for him to rise to level ten within three days, so the only answer is that before he met her, He Yuan was already close to level ten.

And He Yuan's fighting methods made her believe in this even more.

Many times she rested, in addition to being tired, she was also slowly observing the person who suddenly appeared in front of her.

Watching that after resting by himself, He Yuan silently killed the monster alone, regardless of the consumption of physical strength, trying his best to avoid the collision of weapons, just to prevent the sound of weapons intersecting to disturb him.

Such a distance, Asuna wants to say that she is not moved, it is fake.

However, none of this can explain He Yuan's performance in front of him for the first time.

She didn't believe that He Yuan, who was so powerful, would behave like that when facing Bumblebee.

Deliberately in front of her, pretending to be terrified in the face of bumblebees?

What is the purpose?
