"Whew...... ......Huh, "Nightshade gasped, and barely followed Liz to the high ground of this hill - my brother Longyang is a master of swordsmanship, practicing martial arts to the point where he can fly with a sword, and even created a rather strange sword move "Dumping the Country Silver Bullet Wave", but my sister Nightshade really hasn't practiced anything, and the standard hand is a beautiful girl with no power to bind the chicken.

"I've spent so much time with the martial arts woman that I'm about to forget the physical strength of ordinary girls......" Liz shook her head and walked over to see how she was doing.

Unlike the panting nightshade, he didn't even look half tired, after all, according to his current physical attributes, this hill was neither too high nor too steep.

"............" Although Liz had treated her like a drag bottle from the beginning, Nightshade had been pushing herself to try not to drag Liz down, and now she couldn't help but feel a little frustrated and worried - frustrated by her own powerlessness, worried about not being sure if Liz would leave her behind.

Of course, this worry is unnecessary, and Liz, who has already landed "Collecting Magic Sword Materials with Aoi" as the main quest of this world, will not let his game give up halfway.

"Haha, don't be so discouraged, everyone is good at things and not good at things," Liz, who helped her remove the leaves from her head, smiled and comforted, "Besides...... The so-called 'growth' is such a thing, a person I know was also a rookie at the beginning, and then didn't he also walk sideways on the wasteland alone~? ”

"......" The nightshade girl who blushed because of the overly intimate action of picking leaves, did she really hear Liz's comfort?

By the way, it's really not that Lez is deliberately brushing his favorability, he just just sees that there are leaves on the other party's head and it is uncomfortable not to pick them off...... Besides, at this time, no matter how satisfied he is with the character of the nightshade girl, he will not be in the mood to tease her.

"However, no matter how much you think about growing up in the short term, it's impossible," Liz took a step to the side and looked at the stupid dog who was still looking around for tree trunks to pee on the territory even if he evolved into an immortal beast, "Xiaokui, you should ride the dog as much as possible in the future." ”

"Wang!" I don't know if I saw the owner looking at me, or felt the owner's thoughts, but the dog, which had returned to its normal size, immediately ran over.

It's just that

"-Woo-woo!" The dog that had just run over immediately grew larger and took a defensive posture towards Liz...... Behind him a low roar.

“？” Nightshade looked over, obviously in front of her in front of the tree is still a tree, why it is like this, she said she was very puzzled.

"Ha, I didn't expect you to notice it too, not bad~" Liz had already found out, and even noticed the breath as soon as he came to the foot of the mountain, and the 'experience value' he said before was like this, "Xiaokui, you ride up first." ”

“…… Well! Even though she didn't know what was in front of her, Nightshade was not so stupid as to think that there was nothing in front of her, and obediently immediately climbed on the big dog.

After ensuring the safety of his little friend, Liz turned around, drew his peachwood sword, and walked forward step by step.

A tree root suddenly broke through the ground, and I don't know if I wanted to entangle Liz or whip Liz...... Anyway, at the moment when the root of the tree had just been launched and the ground had not yet broken through, Liz had already jumped backwards out of the attack range.

"It's worthy of being a dryad, you can still pretend to be like this~~" Under Liz's ridicule, four or five old trees 'stood up' and surrounded Liz.

With the two main branches as hands, the roots as feet, and several 'face-shaped' cracks in the middle of the trunk - in some worlds they may be 'forest guardians', but in this world they can only be 'youkai' or 'murderous youkai'.

(A stinky Taoist priest and a beautiful girl, we can add dinner tonight~)

（…… Such a beautiful girl, her blood must be delicious. ）

(The blood of the Taoist priest carries spiritual power, I like this more~)

The dryad uttered all sorts of fierce words from the mouth of the 'big face', and the nightshade, who was still shocked by their appearance in a huge body, turned pale - it was this bloody and murderous intent that could be integrated into the demonic power that made Liz perceive it from afar and make it a prey

"Hey~ I'm sorry, my blood probably doesn't have anything you like," although this is not an important thing, but Liz has no spiritual power in his body, "In other words, I can accept herbivores to change their taste after being monsterized, but a tree is like this, it's really hard for me to accept~ Aren't you something that you can eat enough by basking in the sun?" ”

(Haha, don't you know that our favorite things, besides the sun and rain, are rotting corpses!) With laughter, the dryads attacked.

"[Immortal Wind and Cloud Body]!" Hundreds of leaves were launched like knives under the drive of demonic power, and it was easy to complete the so-called 'flying flowers and throwing leaves' of the martial arts master, not to mention, it was still hundreds of consecutive shots in one breath, and Liz accelerated for the first time before he could barely complete the dodge in the dense leaves.

“！” The other dryad launched a vine volley, and the leaf attack lacked the lethality of a final blow after all, but this vine was very fierce when it was pulled down, as evidenced by the ravines on the ground that were pumped east and west. Fortunately, Liz's strength and swordsmanship are still passable, and he resisted the vines that were drawn.

“…… Spell? Thanks to the eyes that come with this state, Liz can clearly see the direction in which the demonic power is flowing, and has flown off the ground before it transforms into a spike of earth to sneak up on itself.

Even if they evolved to mimic humans, the dryads certainly couldn't make flexible movements, so their attacks were all ranged attacks that didn't require proper movement.

"Interesting~~" Under the hands of the dryads, the trees near the hill have been emptied, and Liz, who fell into the clearing, couldn't help but laugh.

Theoretically, he can roughly judge the strength of the enemy by relying on his own perception, but 'theory' and 'practice' are always different, and this first battle in this world is of great significance to him in evaluating the combat power of this world...... Oh, Leeds knows that these dryads are just the "low-level combat power" of this world, just look at the environment they are in, don't worry.

"All living things will turn into corpses, and the elements contained in corpses will become the nourishment for your growth," Liz calmly continued the previous topic, "From the very bottom of the food chain, all of a sudden, to the very top of the food chain...... You don't think that's right~"

(This Taoist priest...... I can't feel his power......! The dryads also seem to sense that something is wrong.

"But I'm sorry, in a sense, I'm the top, whether it's an animal or a plant," Liz raised his hand, "It's all my experience points~~ [Fire Curse]. ”

Flames fell from the sky. (To be continued.) )
