Chapter 218

"Rotten short-lived ghost", a second-order spirit monster that has always been very strange.

Let's say it's strong, he doesn't even have the ability to crush a human who has just entered the second order, but let's say it's weak, even if it's a strong and experienced second-order human being, it's unlikely that I can completely handle it.

As a spirit-like monster, it has a high amount of physical damage immunity, and it is difficult for ordinary physical attacks to have any special effect on it, and it must be full of magical martial arts or magic to cause some damage to it.

It's just that after releasing magic or martial arts, people must replenish themselves by absorbing the natural magic in the air to achieve a suitable cycle, but as long as the "rotten short-lived ghost" exists, its surroundings, including the magic power, must have an extremely difficult curse to get rid of - "rot".

Once the magic containing such curses enters the human body, the human body will be curtailed, the physiological activities will be weakened, and if left untreated, the end result will undoubtedly be a foul-smelling rotten substance.

From this point of view, the "Rotten Short-lived Ghost" is indeed a relatively difficult monster to deal with, but fortunately, it is not very aggressive.

Every action of the "Rotten Short-lived Ghost" consumes a large amount of mana, and the mana replenishment of spirit monsters is very difficult, and it is almost impossible to match their consumption rate, so every time it makes a move, it is equivalent to consuming its own lifespan.

That's why it's called a "short-lived ghost".

Corinna's face turned pale when she heard that the Marquis was hunting such a monster.

She had a clear understanding of her own strength, and she didn't think that her group could defeat such a monster.

Especially when I imagined what my limbs would look like after they were decomposed, the sense of withdrawal in my heart became more and more vigorous.

"Are you scared?"

Hearing Lynn's voice, Corinna subconsciously wanted to shake her head, but she soon realized that her argument might be a little weak.

After a moment's hesitation, she asked, "My strength may not be enough to pose any threat to that demonic beast....... Are you sure you will overcome it? ”

Lynn pondered for a moment, but did not answer.

In fact, when he heard that the monster he was about to face was a spirit-like monster, his heart had already settled down.

The "Scarlet Armor" has the ability to absorb magical power with special characteristics, and although the "Rotten Short-lived Ghost" body with the "Rotten Curse" is actually just a mass of magic with special properties.

"Scarlet Armor" is almost the perfect nemesis for this kind of monster.

It's just that Corina knows what she has abilities, and the existence of the "Scarlet Armor" must not be exposed until the mission goal is achieved.

- In that case, then hide it and use it well.

Lynn looked at her left hand, which was wearing a thick white glove.

Fortunately, he was prepared before he came.

No one has ever said that armor must be worn over clothing, right?

In the depths of winter, everyone's outfits are also thick winter clothes, as long as the power of the "blood armor" used by Lynn does not swell to the inside of the armor and cannot be controlled, and the probability of exposure should not be too great.

However, for the sake of insurance, Lynn felt that it was better to let Corina act on her own.

So, on what grounds?

After entering the jungle, the Marquis gave the order and set off first, without telling them the exact location of the "rotten short-lived ghost" - according to his behavior, he probably did not know it himself.

So......

After a moment of silence, Lynn said loudly: "Miss, this jungle does not seem to be small, for the sake of efficiency, I think it is more appropriate for us to find its location separately." ”

"Huh? Apart? ”

Corina was about to refuse on the grounds that "our strength is not enough to face the crisis caused by the "rotten short-lived ghost", but Lynn seemed to read her mind and said bluntly: "There is no need for us to clash with it immediately. ”

"The Rotten Short-lived Ghost is not a very aggressive monster, and as long as we don't use magic in its realm, its influence cannot penetrate into ourselves."

"Moreover, we are separated, just to find its location, and after we find it, we will make a meeting and gather forces, maybe we can really have a chance to solve it?"

"This ......."

Corina had to admit that what Lynn said was reasonable, and she couldn't find any reason to refute it.

It's really not good, you can wait for the marquis to come.

It is said to be a competition, but for Corina, this is not a very important thing, the important place is only how to establish a space for communication with the Marquis through this competition.

After a moment's hesitation, Corina agreed with Lynn's idea.

"Okay, but if we find it, how do we get in touch?"

"Hmm....... Let Alyssa follow you, she'll have a way. ”

"Eh???"

Alyssa, who had been honestly on the side, was surprised that Lynn had let her go.

Her first reaction was to refuse.

She hadn't forgotten who she really was.

Nothing was more important to her than Lynn's safety.

Although there is still a number two hidden in the shadows, number two does not know anything about "curses" and the like, and she is an orthodox magician, even if she encounters an irresistible crisis, she can at least contain a few points.

Lynn asked her to leave, isn't that equivalent to losing half of the life-saving scroll?

It's just that the words she refused finally gave up under the hint of Lynn's eyes.

"I see." She answered honestly.

"Then, let's go to the right, you go to the left."

After making her decision, Corina showed the determination she should have.

Quickly assign tasks, and then take Alyssa towards the established route.

After a distance, perhaps because Serene was too bored, she looked at Alyssa, whose face was as usual, but with a little vigilance, and there was a little surprise in her eyes.

"What's wrong?" Alyssa noticed the girl's gaze.

Corina shook her head, "It's nothing....... I thought you would be worried that he was ......."

"There's no need for this kind of thing." Alyssa said, "From the first day I followed him, I knew one thing. ”

"—trust in his judgment of things, follow the decisions he makes, and obey the orders he commands."

It was her duty, and it deserved it.

However, Corina didn't know Alyssa's identity, and she was a little surprised by this "loyalty".

According to Alyssa's own words, they only met on the road, and did not experience long-term contact, and in such a short journey, he was able to make a woman with power to offer his loyalty.

The girl felt a little worried.

"Mr. Hodessos" is definitely a man with his own personality and charm, and his own abilities can make him willing to belong to his command?

There was a little frustration in her heart, but Corina wasn't ready to give up.

She had come to believe that "Mr. Hodessos" was her unquestionable destiny.

She had encountered so many problems before, and the tasks she was given did not have a little vision of the progress, but after he appeared, all the difficulties seemed to be solved.

On the second day alone, she had achieved something she had not accomplished for half a month – meeting with the Marquis de Traoré.

Is this artificially arranged?

If it's man-made, then the people behind the scenes must be hoping to get something out of her.

But herself, what can she deceive others?

Because of the relationship between identity and age, she doesn't have many assets, and there is not much money that can be used alone; And for the same reason, it is almost impossible for her to touch the power of the family under normal circumstances.

A natural superior appearance seems to be a good choice, but she is not the only one who has this, like Miss Alyssa next to her, there is absolutely no problem in saying that it is comparable.

So, apart from the fate set for her by the goddess, she could not think of anything else that could explain this phenomenon.

"Since it is arranged by the goddess, there must be a way."

Corina clenched her fists, ready to grasp every opportunity that might come her way.

.......

"Well, it does."

Lynn looked at his slightly swollen left hand and nodded slightly.

His current outfit, clothing, and even height were actually manipulated by Alyssa.

Although he is in his formative years, he has grown very tall, but he has not yet reached the magical point of growing ten centimeters in a month.

Therefore, there are many gaps in his clothes that can be expanded.

Although these gaps do not perfectly accommodate the entire "Scarlet Armor", they do reserve some places for accessories, such as hand and foot armor, and a small number of breastplates, which are completely sufficient.

"There shouldn't be any problems."

Lynn released Yin Weitt.

Cat gods are also spirits, and they are very sensitive to places with abundant magic, and with them, they can find their desired targets faster.

"Here, help me find out where the rot is."

Yin Weite, who was still sleepy-eyed, instantly woke up: "Bastard! You really used me like a dog!! ”

Lynn pleaded, "Please, great Lord Yinwit. ”

Yin Weite snorted coldly and ignored it.

She is the supreme deity, how can she do the work of a dog, and even if she is a dog, she must feed it a bone!

This stinky boy actually wants to prostitute for nothing?

Don't even think about it......

Wrong! Not even if you have a small dried fish!

There's still a bag there.......

"Well, what about this?" Lynn backhanded out a box of what looked like a strange snow-white dust.

The cat's eyes suddenly lit up, and even the magic power on his body began to boil uncontrollably.

It was an existence that could resonate with the greatness of her, one of her life's desires, and the most difficult thing to restrain that could arouse her....... The existence of physical desires!

That is, the smell of catnip!!

"Give it to me!"

Lynn dodged her pounce, and the cat's eyes turned red.

"Do it or not." Lynn asked with a smile.

Yin Weite gritted her teeth, eager to scratch him to death with one claw, but thinking of the current difference in strength between the two, she had to forcibly swallow this breath.

"!"

As the saying goes, don't bully the young cat and be poor, when she gets back her strength, she must punish this bastard severely!

"Here you go when you're done."

Seeing Lynn put away the catnip dust, Yin Weitt's eyes were red as if she was about to drip blood, but she had no choice but to follow Lynn's instructions in a muffled voice.

Yin Weite closed her eyes and felt it for a moment, and pointed to a small path angrily: "Over there." ”

.......

Following Yin Weitt's instructions, Lynn soon came to the area covered by "Rot", and further explored, and easily found the location of the "Rotten Short-lived Ghost".

The "Rotten Short-lived Ghost" resembles a humanoid appearance, but it is covered in a strange, viscous greenish-brown liquid that is disgusting at first glance.

At this moment, it was in a swamp-like terrain, and even if it sensed Lynn's breath, it didn't move.

It's very much in line with its habits.

"Do you want to inform them?" Number Two's voice came from behind.

Lynn didn't reply immediately, but fell into deep thought.

After knowing that the target of this "hunt" was a "rotten short-lived ghost" with the ability of "curse", an idea suddenly rose in his heart.

"Number two, guard the surroundings, someone is approaching, notify me immediately."

Lynn didn't wait for No. 2 to reply, and walked forward slowly, a red light flashing on her body.

"Hey, it's time to wake up."

As a second-order monster, the "Rotten Short-lived Ghost" has a certain amount of intelligence, and although it is nothing compared to Warcraft, it can more or less produce some reactions to other creatures other than instinct.

For example, after "hearing" Lynn's voice, the "rotten short-lived ghost" slowly lifted his head covered in mud.

"Squeak—"

The indeterminate shout seemed to warn strangers who had intruded into its realm, but Lynn was completely unmoved, still further shortening the distance between him and the monster.

The next moment, the "rotten short-lived ghost" moved.

In a short moment, the green-brown silt turned into a long whip several meters long, accompanied by the sound of a fierce wind, and struck towards Lynn.

It was a very intimidating blow, and it landed on the ground, and it was designated to smash a narrow rift.

Unexpectedly, when it landed on Lynn's hand, it didn't cause a particularly violent sound, only a crisp "pop".

"Squeak!!

An even more piercing shout came from the monster's body out of nowhere, as if anger arose from the fact that the attack didn't work.

But as it tried to pull back its fabricated whip, its cry gradually turned from anger to fear.

The long whip is disappearing.

At the same time, it can perceive that the power it possesses, like a river that has been specially guided, cannot stop flowing to the other end.

A little intelligence made it instinctively frightened.

It realizes that this guy may not have come to find death.

"Go on."

Lynn squeezed her shiny right hand, and the corners of her lips gradually hooked up with a smile.

"Come, go on."

His provocation went unanswered, because the "rotten short-lived ghost" simply did not understand.

But even if it doesn't understand the language, it can realize that the other person seems to be sure of it.

For any sapient being, when the most basic life is threatened, they will subconsciously begin to react to stress.

Either use all your strength to fight to the death, or .......

"Boom-"

The "Rotten Ghoul" abandoned the swamp of his own power, summoned all his magic, and squirmed wildly in one direction.

It's going to run away!

However, in the next second, its escape path was blocked by a figure that suddenly appeared.

Lynn waved her hand.

"It's okay to escape, here, no."

So the "rotting ghoul" turned to the other side.

"Not here either."

It switched sides again.

This time, it was unhindered in any way.
