Volume 1 7: Two Goals

The witch's weapon was not a staff worthy of her name, nor was it a bow or arrow for a female warrior, or a stringed instrument befitting her graceful stature that bards were good at.

What she held in her hand was a long sword with a simple shape.

The sword has no fancy ornamental patterns, and the gauntlets are the most common style, and the overall appearance is more like the equipment used by the village guards to scare off thieves than the sophisticated weapons used to fight against monsters.

The spiritual power between heaven and earth used the witch's body as a medium, and it continued to merge into the long sword, and the dim blade gradually glowed with snow-white brilliance, dispelling all the shadows around her, and making the snake demon family members who surrounded her and other ordinary people dare not move forward.

The giant snake in the field of vision let out a low roar, but the humans couldn't understand the words of the demon beast, they only felt that the other party was threatening themselves, and if they didn't resist, they would end up with no bones left.

The witch swung her sword forward, drawing a white line in the air.

Then, the spiritual power that was originally gathered in the sword body was released in an instant with her movements, and the snow-white sword qi immediately expanded into a dazzling arc, and where the arc swept over, there were all the remains of small snakes that could not be avoided, some of them were cut off on the spot, and some of them were separated from their heads.

After the death of the family members of the serpentine monsters, their remains will not be preserved and will enter the cycle of nature, but will turn into a poisonous mist with a fishy smell and continue to spread into the surrounding air.

As soon as these toxic gases come into contact with the surrounding air, they will instantly take on a pale green color, as if to prevent someone from inhaling them.

The witch seemed to have expected this scene to happen, only to see her free arm raised up above her head, signaling to the fathers and villagers who were hiding behind her but had not fled for a long time-

The ordinary people behind her immediately took a few "hays" from their pockets, hats, or hairpins, and put them in their mouths to chew vigorously, or put them between their noses and mouths to cover part of their nostrils.

It is a herb specially used to purify poisonous mist and miasma, and after being specially treated and stored by the witch, even in the winter when such plants are not suitable for survival, people can always have them on their bodies.

The demon beasts who were enemies of them saw that the sacrifice attack of their dependents was difficult to have an effect, and they immediately became a little impetuous, and humans who were not familiar with the character of demon beasts may not be aware of it, but as the beast concerned, he could not be clearer - to deal with the human beings who are "useless" except for the large number and ignorance of the world, they actually have to sacrifice so many dependents, if they let the other beasts in the family know, then how should he mix in the future?

Could it be that the woman at the head is the new ruler of this land?

According to the monsters who live nearby, the woman is said to use treacherous spells, and often carries some treasures that are not easy to mess with, and can easily solve poisons, curses, and so on.

Ever since she came to the Xuancai Mountain Range and began to cover the weak creatures in the vicinity, these demon beasts who boasted of their strong strength could no longer swim freely in the mountains as they did in the past!

"Shhh - "Knowing that the language barrier between the two races is incomprehensible, the serpentine demon beast still wants to lose its temper with the "plague god" who was finally bumped into by itself today before having to retreat.

It is the "truth" recognized by the demon beasts in the mountains, can you protect them for a while, can you still protect them forever? One day, everything will return to normal, and the land will no longer be suitable for the survival of weak species.

"Ahh At the same time, Fang Nuo, who had instructed the Queen of the Mourning Birds to "exert her racial talents" in the air, retracted his head into the feathers, relieved himself of the pain he felt after facing the roar of the giant snake, and only after the buzzing in his mind had cleared away, he shared his feelings about the other party's "good-faced words" with the birds below him and beside him.

Although the Bird Queen didn't quite understand what "racial talent" meant, she still did as she pleased, hovering in mid-air with Fang Nuo all the time; The blackbird was a little embarrassed as he watched his queen's actions, and he realized that this was the snow-white haired ball taking revenge on him for playing tricks on him with his friends in the air.

"In this way, I have heard too much in the family, and my ears are calloused."

The Yellow Immortal Clan is considered a friendly demon beast of other races, and their family dream of being promoted to an immortal beast cannot be separated from the help of other creatures, especially the most empathetic (and the best deceitful) humans in their opinion.

But despite this, there will still be unique Yellow Immortals growing in the family, all of whom are born with the appearance of feeling that other races owe them a penny, and sincerely look down on large creatures such as humans who can kick them away.

Some of Fang Nuo's peers have been around these clansmen for a long time, and they even have the idea of being "cynical" with their small bodies, which is completely to make other little yellow fairies see jokes.

"What about you? You aspire to be another species...... For example, mourning birds, such as humans? The Bird Queen's voice came from in front of Fang Nuo with a little apprehension.

"I don't want to leave the family, and failing to ask for a seal is a good thing for me in a sense." The little beast, who lacked interest in seeing the vast world, replied sullenly, "However, I never thought that I would lose the spiritual power I had worked so hard to accumulate, and I would not even be able to do what I was best at. ”

"Before I return to my clansmen, I want to get back everything I lost from that human woman." This is also the reason why he insists on making the witch owe him a favor.

As a demon beast that can keenly capture the changes in the spiritual power of the atmosphere, he has a premonition in the dark that as long as he repays the witch for saving his life, what he does even overshadows the limit of the good relationship between the two...... He will be able to obtain a huge spiritual power feedback, and he may be able to go straight to the position of the immortal beast, and he can also completely sever his evil relationship with the witch, as stated in the last wish of the elder of the family, there is nothing in this life that has the ability to restrain him.

"Hmph, unrealistic idea." The blackbird flying beside them began to babble again, "How can you say that the fate with the witch is a bad fate, you stinky little devil who destroys the heavens." ”

"So, what are you going to do?" The Bird Queen inquired with interest about Fang Nuo's thoughts.

He was looking for an opportunity, Fang Nuoxin said, so he didn't send a mourning bird to send him away after seeing the witch's "last side", but stayed in the sky all the time, observing the battle situation below.

I wanted to do something when the witch was defeated by the serpentine demon beast and turn the tide of the battle - even if it was only to distract the giant snake for a moment.

Unexpectedly, the giant snake saw that its family members were killed, and gradually lost its will to fight...... Seeing him like that, he was going to let go of some cruel words.

Shiro is so big.

"I have heard the elders of the clan mention that in addition to a large area of ylang-ylang trees on the shore of Xuancai Lake, there is also a giant snake and a snake demon beast that uses its body as a shelter."

Fang Nuo, who is small in size, not outstanding in terms of bite strength and physical strength among his peers, and who also shows albino in winter, is probably the only one in the family who can compare with other clansmen, probably only when he listens to the speeches of his teachers.

It was because of his seriousness that he learned more about other species, was proficient in his family's hunting policies, and was better at imitating and using the language of other creatures than his peers.

"I know where their hearts are, and I know what kind of plant sap can be used to blind their eyes." This knowledge lingered in the mind of the witch at first glance.

It's just that, with his size, he wants to practice it in reality...... It doesn't feel realistic.

Right now, the almost one-sided battle on the ground is coming to an end.

The witch is worthy of being the guardian of this village, and the existence of the powerful demon beast that bullied humans in the past is sealed in the book, although her fighting style is different from what Fang Nuo imagined, it can be said that it is completely by brute force (?). In the physical suppression of the enemy, but it has to be admitted that this way of "convincing the beast with reason" is very useful.

In the process of fighting with humans, the great serpent, who was already retreating, moved little by little to an area that was easy to escape, and his dependents lost a certain number of them, but for some reason they never appeared again.

Fang Nuo was inevitably a little disappointed in his heart.

"Huang Xian repays the favor...... he remembered all the rumors he had heard from his elders in the past, and felt that the blackbird on the side turned his gaze, and couldn't help but say stiffly, "Ten years is not too late." ”

"Huh." Blackbird scoffed at this.

Once again, the development of events did not go according to his wishes, and Fang Nuo felt a little unwilling and depressed in his heart.

He poked his head out of the Bird Queen's back, and saw a behemoth standing up in front of a misty green, its neck much flatter than before, and it kept attacking and hissed as a warning as it swam away from the figure in the fog.

The green poisonous mist has permeated the mourning birds at some point.

Fang Nuo had a bad premonition, however, what he imagined might happen in the near future might not have anything to do with him, so there was a high probability that the voice reporting the increase in "malicious value" in his mind would not sound.

"Ahhh —" Suddenly came the exclamation of a strange human in the fog.

"Witch-sama! Witch-sama! Help me" Someone is calling for help from their guardians.

"What's wrong?" The Queen of the Mourning Bird and the Blackbird who accompanied her had obviously not expected such a change, and their tones sounded shocked and anxious, but they did not know what to do next.

The poisonous mist obscured the vision of people and demon beasts, but the giant serpent, as the leader of the snakes, was not affected by it, and not only was he able to evacuate this place safely in accordance with his last wish, but he also had a chance to fight against the army!

The figure of the witch loomed in the green mist.

The spiritual power of heaven and earth held up her long sword, causing it to float in mid-air, constantly circling around her, acting as a symbolic protection.

"There it is!"

A roar mixed with secret joy reached the ears of Fang Nuo, the only one who could understand the language of the giant snake.

In an instant, all sorts of thoughts went through his mind, and then he shouted to the mourning birds who were flying upwards:

"Catch me!"

"What?" The Bird Queen didn't realize the meaning of this "order", and the next moment, she felt a light on her back—

That little thing jumped!

It happened so suddenly, and the blackbird that accompanied the Bird Queen naturally did not come to his senses, and although he was below the Queen, he did not follow the instructions to act.

To be exact, he had already missed out on Fang Nuo when he came over.

[Malice from the World +40]

After experiencing this sound a few times, Fang Nuo was able to discern the source of these values.

One from the Bird Queen who let him fall, one from the Blackbird who failed to catch him, one from himself who pretended to be distracted and caused "the wind to blow off the bird's back", and one from the poisonous fog below that threatened his life.

If the situation continues to deteriorate like this, there must be more "malice" projected on him, and finally used by him—from the giant serpent, or from the inhabitants of the mountain village.

But through this kind of action, Fang Nuo, who had a handful of mysterious voice wool, knew how to accept it when he saw it, and seeing that the practice of his whim plan had paid off, he immediately adjusted his direction and posture in the air, intending to take advantage of the situation to repay the favor owed to the witch.

Consume 10 malicious points to construct a herb that the Witch uses to shield the poisonous mist.

Consumes 10 malice points in exchange for herbs that ensure clear vision and ignore miasma for a period of time.

Then, as he had rehearsed in his mind many times after listening to the lectures of the family elders, Fang Nuo rode the wind into the fog and finally landed on the spot where the serpent's neck was connected to the drive, which was theoretically closest to its heart.

The spiritual power that had been lost in the previous sealing activity came from all directions in an instant with his actions, he opened his mouth, let them gather on his fangs, and then aimed at the place where the spiritual power in the giant snake's body was most abundant in his perception, and bit the other party's scales!

It's a pity that the attack of the small beast is not fatal enough, it will only make the giant snake feel that his life is threatened by an unknown object, and he will no longer dare to attack and leave obediently in the fog.

Fang Nuo, who had won the blow in one blow, watched the fog around him gradually dissipate as the serpent receded, and his heart was filled with the pleasure and satisfaction generated by the reaction of knowledge and practice, with a slight hint of complacency appropriate to his age.

Overhead, two mourning birds flapped their wings and flew through the air, as if the only audience was applauding his flawless performance.

He squatted in the mud puddle left by the huge body of the giant snake, separated by a faint layer of green mist, and looked at the witch who should have been saved by him once.

At this moment, the body of the snow-white beast is full of spiritual power, and it is only one step away from breaking through its strength - come on, once again use the secret method that has been passed down to this day by the Yellow Immortal Clan, and put an end to this unexpected fate!

Fang Nuo, who had just accomplished a feat that might never be repeated, and was now full of enthusiasm that had not yet receded, trembled in a trembling tone, and asked his "destined person" that crucial question:

"Come on, look at me, like a human, or like an immortal?!"

The two birds in the sky were even more excited than their "new friends" who had just met, flapping their wings.

"Ahh

Excited by the beast's heart, the witch finally noticed the little wool strip in the mire - the other party stood upright, two forefeet forward, like ......

Asking for a hug from humanity?

"Strange," the witch crouched down and reached out to poke the little hairy feet, "Didn't I lock the door when I left the house before?" ”

“?”

"But you're so sensible!" The witch picked up Fang Nuo on the ground and looked at his mud-stained body with pity, "Worried about Mom?" Are you thinking of me? That's why you found it despite all the hardships? ”

“???”

"I'm sorry, I underestimated that demon beast just now, and I almost went home injured, this time it scared you, right?"

"But it's okay now." She put Fang Nuo in her pocket and gently covered the mouth of the bag with her hand to prevent Fang Nuo from accidentally falling out due to her excessive movements, "Let's go home now, and in the future, nothing will happen that worries you."
