Chapter 19: This Time It's Really Exposed
"Courage test?"
The next day, after a day of training, it stands to reason that I should be exhausted. However, the over-energetic Hono Fruit proposed a project that must be played when staying together in the summer, that is, the Courage Test Conference.
"Well, I heard from Mahime that there seems to be a small park around here, shall we go and have fun?" Takasaka Honoka suggested.
"What, I'm tired of a day and I'm going to try my guts. Don't you take an early break? As soon as Nicole Yazawa heard about the test of courage, her forehead was covered with sweat.
Nozomi Tojo smiled evilly, "Nicole-chan, you can't be scared, right?" Why is there sweat on your forehead? ”
"Nicole Nicole? Nicole, I'm afraid of something. Nicole Yazawa made a ROCK gesture with both hands, put it on top of her head, and made a standard cute gesture. But the way you look is not convincing, dear.
"Well, I'm fine." Ling Xue thought about it, then shrugged her shoulders, and was the first to agree, just taking this opportunity to check if the darkness of the world was still around.
"Since Xiaoxue agrees, then I don't have an opinion." Mahime Nishikino responded, "However, I'm going to be in a group with Xiaoxue." ”
"No way!" Eri Ayase slapped the table excitedly.
"Why!" Maki Nishikino asked rhetorically.
"Because I have to ask my opinion." Eri Ayase put on a terrifying face, turned her head to look at Ling Xue, gritted her teeth, and said word by word: "Ling! Snow! Old! Division! You! No! Yes! Same! Meaning! Target! Let's do it! ”
"Whether!" Okay, Ling Xue admitted that she was frightened by Ayase Eri, and originally wanted to answer according to Ayase Eri's meaning, but when she saw Mahime with a smile on her face, she suddenly shuddered, why is there black gas on Mahime's body, and there will be a Shura statue behind her~~
"That'...... That's going to be decided by lot. As if he couldn't bear to see Ling Xue embarrassed, Nan Xiaoniao raised his hand and whispered a proposal.
"Yes, yes." Ling Xue's eyes lit up, and she nodded hurriedly, "Let's draw lots." ”
Whew, looking at the two girls who were going to sign it, Ling Xue let out a long breath and looked at Nan Xiaoniao gratefully.
Nan Xiaoniao's face turned red at Ling Xue's blazing gaze, scratched his head, and smiled shyly.
The results of the final draw were as follows:
Takasaka Hono and Amanomi Amanomi group, Koizumi Hanayo and Starry Sky Rin group, Nishikino Mahime and Yazawa Nicole group. Eri Ayase and Nozomi Tojo are in a group, and finally Ling Xue and Minami Kotori are in a group.
The first to enter the forest park were Eri Ayase and Nozomi Tojo, while Ling Xue and Minami Kotori were the second group, walking side by side in the forest path, talking and laughing, and walking slowly, neither of them seemed to put their minds on the test of courage.
"Now, Xiaoxue, you...... What is your relationship with Eri and Mahime? Nan Xiaoniao hesitated for a while, and finally asked the question he had wanted to ask for a long time.
"What's the relationship?" Ling Xue was stunned for a moment and said, "Friendship, otherwise?" ”
"Stupid Xiaoxue, that's not what I said, I mean you're dating Eri or Mahime?" Nan Xiaoniao pouted.
",,,!?" Ling Xue stuttered with a flushed face, "What...... How could that be. One is the eldest lady who is perfect in all aspects, and the other is Bai Fumei, how can people look up to me. ”
"Really?" Nan Xiaoniao hurriedly confirmed.
"Hmm. Forehead...... Bird, why do you look so happy? Ling Xue nodded, and then wondered.
"It's nothing, it's just that I'm happy all of a sudden." After receiving Ling Xue's confirmation, Nan Xiaoniao breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appeared on his face again, and he hummed softly.
The combination of Eri Ayase and Nozomi is much quieter, and both of them are walking quietly on the road, seemingly with their own thoughts.
Eri Ayase looked back from time to time, while Nozomi kept her head down, not knowing what she was thinking.
Eri Ayase glanced at Nozomi, who was thinking about something with her head down, and wondered, "Nozomi, you're so quiet today, it's not like you." ”
"Why doesn't it look like me?" Nozomi Tojo looked up at Eri and wondered.
"If you were a normal person, you would definitely say to me at this kind of test of courage, 'Eri, let's hide and scare people.'" Something like that. Eri Ayase worried, "What's wrong with you?" Something hasn't been quite right since yesterday. ”
"I ...... Who is it! Nozomi Tojo was just about to say something, when he accidentally saw a black shadow flash in the woods beside the road.
"What's wrong with you? Hope? Eri Ayase was taken aback by Nozomi Tojo's surprise.
"I don't know if it's my delusion, just now I saw a black shadow flashing in the woods." Nozomi Tojo said solemnly.
"Nozomi ...... Hey, this ...... It's not funny at all. Eri Ayase was so frightened by Nozomi Tojo that she suddenly felt cold behind her.
"Huh......" There was a soft sound in the woods again, and this time Ayase Eri also saw a black shadow passing by, and her face was directly frightened, which didn't seem to be a joke......
"Looks like something isn't quite right here, it can't be a bad guy." Nozomi Tojo stared around vigilantly, and said to Eri Ayase, "Let's go to Kokoyuki and meet them first, they're right behind." ”
"Hmm." Eri Ayase nodded hurriedly.
And just when he wanted to return the same way, several ground thorns, or wooden thorns, suddenly appeared on the ground, directly sealing the way back.
The two girls felt a chill behind them at this time, why did the wooden stake come out of the ground?!
Not only that, but two vines flew out of the woods directly against the ground, directly tied the ankles of the two women, and dragged them towards the woods.
"Ah!!h Eri and Nozomi's exclamations resounded directly through the woods.
"It's Eri and Nozomi!" Nan Xiaoniao was also taken aback by this scream, but he didn't think much about it, after all, it was a test of courage, and it was abnormal if there was no scream.
"Little bird, you go back the way you came now, tell the rest of the group not to come in, and go back to Mahime's house together and wait." Ling Xue was silent for a while. Seeing that Nan Xiaoniao seemed to be about to ask, he hurriedly said: "Don't ask why, hurry up and do what I say, this is the teacher's judgment." ”
"I see." Seeing Ling Xue's serious face, it didn't seem to be a joke, she nodded hurriedly and turned her head to run towards the place she came from.
"Then it's time for me to go." Just now, Ling Xue suddenly felt the aura that made her uncomfortable, and Eri and Nozomi's screams were screaming after the aura appeared, so ......
"JUMP!" Ling Xue kicked hard, ran towards the scream, and smiled bitterly, "It looks like my identity is really going to be exposed." ”
Eri and Nozomi were hanging upside down in the woods, both looking a little panicked, after all, they were just high school students, and it was good to lose their minds without panic when they encountered such a strange thing.
"What's that!" Eri Ayase's eyes widened in horror as she saw a pitch-black monster gradually coming up from a lake not far from the forest.
A black paste-like composition that resembles a dried tree. He looked at the two girls in front of him with scarlet eyes. And the two women were chilled by the monster in front of them.
"Roar!" The black monster roared, and two black arrows were launched from the black monster's body, and quickly flew towards Nozomi and Eri, who were hanging upside down.
"Ah!!h The two women screamed and closed their eyes, but after a long while, no pain came. So, the two women slowly opened their eyes, only to see that not far in front of them, two black arrows seemed to be blocked by something, quietly stopping in the air.
"Whew, it looks like it's just in time." Ling Xue walked out of the woods and let out a long breath, it was really a long shot. Ling Xue wiped the cold sweat on her hands, and after materializing the "sword" card, she cut off the vines and took the two girls into her arms.
"Are you two alright?" Ling Xue unconsciously hugged the two girls tightly, with a hint of trilling in her tone. Although Ling Xue knew that she had successfully saved the two girls, what if she didn't catch up? Thinking of the consequences of not catching up, Ling Xue was afraid for a while, in order to keep the so-called secret, which led to the accident of Eri and Nozomi, Ling Xue must not see this kind of thing.
Feeling the trembling of Ling Xue's body, Eri Ayase and Nozomi Tojo, who were originally a little shy in panic, also had a reassuring smile on their faces, and said in unison: "We're fine, Xiaoxue." ”
"Xiaoxue, you really are ......" After a while, Ling Xue let go of her hand, and Tojo Nozomi looked at Ling Xue Dao with complicated eyes. And Eri Ayase glanced at the sword in Ling Xue's hand, and said expressionlessly, "You owe me an explanation." ”
"Hi. Hi. Ling Xue nodded, and said with a wry smile: "I'll give you an explanation, but you have to deal with this monster first." ”
"FLOAT, excuse me." Ling Xue said softly.
As the words fell, a card with a flashing rainbow of light flew out of the pack, and then turned into a pale enchantment that enveloped the three of them and floated into the air.
"I'm going to finish you off!" Ling Xue looked at the gloomy dispersion of the world on the ground that looked like dry branches, and snorted coldly, "Go ahead!" FREEZEWINDYSHIELD
The "wind" combined with the "frozen" card blows a blizzard-like climate, while the shield wraps all the space within a certain range and does not let the power of the card leak out.
After lasting for a minute, Ling Xue felt that the energy in her body was almost half gone, and she summoned the elves back.
And what is presented in front of Eri and Nozomi Ayase is a large world like ice crystals.
Ling Xue took out the "Purple Mother's Folding Fan" and waved it down, shouting: "The realm of existence and non-existence." ”
It was as if a piece of green land had been dug out of thin air, and from the sky, a wooded park with a radius of about 100 meters disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving behind a circular brown soil.
[Required Quest 2: Phase 2.] Crusade, destroy the world's dark dispersions, 3/3. Done. The rewards are as follows, electronic value 10000, an ability card, three lottery chances, and a small HP potion X9. 】
[Due to the completion of the mission, I am forced to return after two days.] Please note the host. 】
"This seems to be a bit of a bad thing." Ling Xue muttered and said, "Forget it, you should do a good deed." WOOD FLOWER. ”
Two more snow cards burst out of the pack, a turquoise and pink glow sprinkled on the brown soil, and in a few breaths the trees and flowers grew again.
After doing all this, she landed lightly on the ground, looking at the two girls who were already a little stunned, Ling Xue sighed and said, "Let's go, go back to Zhenji's house first, everyone is worried." Rest assured, the explanation owed to you will be given to you. ”
After returning to the villa of Mahime's family, the explanation to everyone was that they had encountered robbers, but fortunately, Ling Xue arrived in time and was not injured. Although everyone still thought it was weird, they didn't dig deeper, but went back to their own rooms to sleep. After all, as long as no one gets hurt, it's good.
(Today, if nothing else, it should be a shift, because the ribs are going out in the afternoon, oh, if I come back early, I will try to hold the second shift.) Thanks to the "Snow Moon Flower Dance" and "Hatsune Figure (Hatsune Figure)" for the tip. )
