vs 55 Before the gods

For unknown reasons, a large number of slimes have recently appeared in the vicinity, and unlike the once innocent impression of humans and animals, they will actively attack passers-by, and have also attacked villages and towns in the countryside in groups several times. As civilized, peaceful, brave and free adventurers, the Knights of the Four Winds of Mondstadt have issued an announcement to exterminate these low-level monsters, and our Adventurers' Association has actively responded to the call of the Free State to hereby announce the reward for the extermination of dangerous monster slimes.

Slime 1 gold mora/head

Large slime 10 gold mola/head

This is an Adventure Quest that Biona and Lulu Mara received from the Adventurers' Guild bulletin board, and it is a wide-area Quest that can be received by all Adventurers.

"Why is hunting slimes a D-class mission? They're so weak. I thought that against these little things, the F class would be enough. Shuma sat on the rock, dressed in leather armor from her package.

"Is it weak? I don't know why you have this perception, but I have found out that the slimes targeted in the bounties are usually in groups and will actively attack people. Piona looked down and carefully examined the number of arrows in the quiver, hanging it from the belt buckle around her waist.

She jumped lightly to make sure the tightness of the belt fit, and the quiver and the two sheathed knives around her waist jumped up and down with her movements.

The two knives were as old as they could be seen from their handles and sheaths, but they were carefully cared for and so clean that they couldn't even see the dirt in the corners.

At Xu Yun's strong request, Biona replaced the spears used by the battle nuns and reassembled them with the 'old buddies'.

Everyone's expressions were a little subtle, slimes are a monster, it's hard for others to say, at least Timmy is in the team, which is equivalent to sending money.

"It seems that there are some things that Lulu and Nanqi haven't had time to tell you yet." Kerry fastened the belt of his armor, and the sunny day was refreshing, but on a hot summer day, it was a different feeling.

"I really don't want to wear this full-body armor if I can, I'm almost drenched in sweat before I even start fighting."

"I'd advise you to put it on, and it's a kind of training, isn't it? Growth in battle is the fastest, that's the wise quote of Instructor Hiro. Xu Yun was holding a huge circular curved shield, which was thick in the middle and thin at the edges, even if it was used as an unbladed axe temporarily.

The curved shield area is quite large, and Kerry can block most of his body after taking it, which greatly improves the sense of security of the players standing behind him.

"Yes, fight, accumulate experience, train skills, and fight again. That guy Hiro always said this in class, and at first I thought it was verbose, but after the last experience, I realized that he wasn't lying. Looking back on the experience of fighting, in fact, I had a better choice of coping methods at that time, if I had been calmer and I knew more combat skills, would I have been able to do the same as you, and kill that monster?"

Xiuma stroked the newly forged white iron greatsword, its appearance had changed into a classic sword weapon shape with double-sided blades, very similar to the white iron greatsword Xu Yun saw in the game, but the system did not give a name hint.

Come to think of it, how could a random apprentice boy easily forge a blue-quality weapon, and the Dawn Sword he is accustomed to is so sharp, it is just a blue quality.

Ready, everyone walked out of the shade of the canopy, fifty meters ahead, the group of fire slimes gathered together as if they were in a meeting immediately spotted the six-person team walking on the tamping dirt road, led by two large slimes, twelve small slimes jumped and charged towards everyone.

The six members of the squad were in a position to meet the enemy, and Kerry was on the defensive, and the huge silver-white round shield seemed to be a wall at the forefront.

Biona drew her longbow and swung her fingertip arrows up and down with her left hand, looking for an opportunity to strike.

Ten seconds later, the slimes were still bouncing.

Luluma tightened her sweaty hands, Nanqi held the long iron staff and swallowed her saliva, and Shuma spat out the blades of grass in her mouth.

"These guys are too slow." He muttered quietly.

"Here we are." Xu Yun stared at these slimes intently, and after advancing more than ten meters, the fire element on their bodies became active, and the surface of their bodies began to burst into flames.

When the two large slimes approached the team about twenty meters, the movement of jumping forward stopped, and they flattened their bodies, like balls squashed on the ground, and the next moment, two slimes larger than the three adults combined soared into the air.

"Dodge!" Xu Yun shouted in a low voice and took the lead in flashing into the grass on the side of the road.

The two large slimes took off and drew a parabola from thirty meters away, smashing into the position where the team was standing with a heavy cracking sound.

Biona immediately relaxed the bowstring that had been pulled open, put away the arrows that had not yet been fired, and dodged backwards, Nanqi followed her back, Xiuma and Lulumara scholar Xu Yun hid in the grass next to her, and Kerry took a few steps forward.

Boom! Boom!

The two large slimes smashed like heavy boulders on the rammed dirt road, and the huge impact slammed themselves into cakes.

"Looks stupid." Shuma didn't forget to taunt

Laugh at! Laugh at!

After smashing down, the large slimes did not directly revert to a circle, but spewed out circles of flames like air leaks at the point where they came into contact with the ground.

The rings of flames spread outward, igniting the weeds on both sides of the rammed earth road in an instant.

"Ring of Fire! Get out of that area, it's going to be a fire! Nanqi shouted.

She and Biona retreated along the rammed dirt road, not worrying about the fire burning them for a short time, but the three who hid in the grass were different.

The range of the ring of fire continued to expand, and the large slime kept spewing flames outward, and the new flames pushed the flames in front of them that gradually lost their forward momentum, and soon covered the area of the ring of fire around several people who were dodging.

Even if several people have retreated several times in a row to distance themselves.

Just when Xu Yun was about to retreat again, his right foot failed to pull up as expected, and the rolling waves of fire had arrived in front of him, and the crisp, bright and vibrant weeds withered, burned, and turned into ashes in front of him. Hurriedly looking down, a few vines with strange leaves were wrapped around his cowhide boots, and he was sure that they didn't exist when he landed a moment ago.

Pulling out his right foot with force, the vine man passed on the obvious pulling force, and it became tighter and tighter.

Without time to hesitate, he swung his sword to cut off the vine man, dodging and rolling to avoid the waves of fire, and just as the waves swept past where he had just stood, a green ball with a lit leaf jumped out from under the ground, breaking free from the burning waves of fire, and jumping wildly on the surrounding grass, like a man burned by fire.

For a moment, he met its eyes.

The big eyes that should have been innocent are all red in the sockets at this time.

"Ahh

"Scald, hot, hot!"

On the other side of the rammed earth road, Shuma and Lulu Mara were also bound by the grass slime's vineman, and the two of them, who failed to break free in time, ran wild in the field with the two grass slimes.

"Calm down! Don't run around! Nanqi put out the fire for them, and you will really be finished with a few more burns! Xu Yun shouted loudly.

"Piona, you're going to help too!"

Kerry had already caught up with the group of little slimes, and these small round balls were far more difficult to deal with than they imagined, and it was not difficult to block their attacks, but if they didn't attack once, they would burn the shield in Kerry's hand, and after a while, the surface of the silver-white shield had begun to redden.

Facing the siege, Kerry could only block the attacks coming from the front, and he could no longer care about the back and flanks, so he could only endure the burning pain that came with each attack.

He became more and more agitated, and the sword in his right hand that was responsible for the attack swung in a haphazard manner.

Xu Yun avoided the large slimes that continued to spit out the ring of fire, and took the lead in supporting Kerry, who had fought all the way from the bottom of Wangfeng Mountain, and it was as easy for him to deal with this small slime as if he was eating and drinking, and the Dawn Sword was a small round ball, and in just a few seconds, he killed eight of these little guys besieging Kerry

On the other side, Biona, who had already helped her companion extinguish the fire on her body, rejoined the battle, the bowstring sounded, and a well-made arrow pierced into the body of the large slime that had stopped breathing fire, the arrow sank into the slime's body, leaving only a small piece of tail feathers outside the body, and you can even see the arrow trapped in its body through the translucent slime's body.

The cluster of arrows is still a cut of distance away from the core of the center of the slime, which is its vital point, and it does not damage the core, and any physical attack that falls on it is similar to falling on the skin.

"How many are left?" Xu Yun and Kerry stood back to back, and in less than a minute of fighting, Kerry was already sweating profusely, not knowing whether he was hot or tired.

He breathed heavily, as if he had just finished a physical session.

"Go ahead, I'm okay here, I can't rely on you all the time." Kerry touched the sweat on his cheeks and clenched the sword in his hand. "Just a few slimes." Kerry spat out the spit in his mouth, and the corners of his mouth opened into a fierce arc.

He raised his shield and took the initiative to crash into a fire slime, and with this impact, the slime flew several meters away.

"If it weren't for the siege just now, who would be afraid of them!!" He shouted angrily, not knowing whether to call it to Xu Yun or to himself.

"If it weren't for the sneak attack, who would be afraid of them!" Shuma leaped high and slashed his sword into the air at the large slime that had been shot by Biona, who had already doused the flames burning on his body with water, and now returned to the battlefield.

"Don't!" Xu Yun watched as his sword blade fell in the air, and the silver-white sword light was dazzling in the sunlight.

And the big slime who was hit by the arrow also looked at him, and his swollen cheeks turned to this human boy who dared to get close, the attack that was originally prepared for the villain who was shooting arrows to sneak attack him, and now it was given to this boy.

Puff puff~

The slime's flaming lips arched into an O-shape, spitting out a series of three fireballs, the fireball burst was simply instinct for natural elemental creatures like them, and the casting speed was unknown how many times faster than that of human elementalists.

Boom~~~ Boom!

Laugh at!

A fireball struck Shuma's blade, and the bursting flames unleashed a small firestorm that sent him flying, sending him wet and steaming all over his body. The evaporation reaction inflicted a second high amount of damage on him.

The other two fell on the grass dozens of meters away because they missed, and after the explosion, they ignited two more wild meadows.

Xu Yun slapped his forehead, it was still too late.

These guys... To be honest, if he could choose, he really wanted to act alone, but he was still in the stage of development, and if he jumped too much, he didn't need others, and it was estimated that Sasria would not let him go.

Shoehorning a squad to herself, Sasria's purpose is probably to let herself help bring out a team of usable newcomers, right?

Aside from the blind thoughts in his heart, Xu Yun has already rushed close to the large slime, and the fire slime, the water slime, and the thunder slime are all relatively easy breeds to deal with in the slime family. Except for their attack skills, as long as they dodge their skills, they are not a threat.

Just like now, Xu Yun slashed down with a sword, and the Dawn Sword easily cut through the burning skin of the fire slime, and the condensate filled in its body splattered out, and the golden jade sword shadow that followed it penetrated into the wound again, halving the core of the sword, and the huge slime was like a punctuated water ball, which collapsed into a thick viscous condensation of the fire element.

If you encounter an ice slime and a rock slime, it will be difficult to deal with, these two guys will put on armor made of elemental condensation, and they can't hurt their body until the armor is broken, if you don't break the armor as fast as they condense, the process is not as simple as a protracted battle.

As for wind slimes and grass slimes, the former can fly, and the latter can escape, and it is easy to fight and difficult to fight, and if there is no targeted arrangement, it will become quite tricky.

These slimes aren't very formidable opponents when they face them alone, but once they join forces, the difficulty of the mission is different.

If it weren't for the grass slime sneaking underground and launching a sneak attack on a few people just now, Shuma and Lulu would not have been burned by the fire.

But this is actually good luck, if the grass slime attaches the grass element to them, and then ignites it by the fire element of the fire slime, the consequences will be unimaginable.

In order to prevent this from happening, Xu Yun decisively dealt with the other large fire slime left.

As for the grass slime that attacked his group just now, the vast wasteland is wild, full of lush weeds, and I don't know where to hide it.

That's what grass slimes hate the most, once they want to run, it's hard to find them out as long as the surroundings are right. You can't just catch a few slimes and set the entire Wind Rise Plains on fire, right?

"Biona, I'll leave the cleaning of the battlefield to you and Lulu, I'll take a break."

After taking the mission from Mondstadt and assigning him to the outer area of the Windrise to destroy the slimes, it took most of the day on the way and half an hour to prepare, but the battle ended in less than five minutes.

Xu Yun sat on the stone on the side of the road, the rock was so hot from the sun that he had to give up the idea of looking up at the sky and making a melancholy shape, and sat down on a grass mat.

Wow~

The silver-white round shield was thrown beside him, and the unsupported round shield fell on the grass, and the hot temperature of the shield surface scalded the green grass blades to make a snorting sound, and there was a smell of grass and trees around him, as well as the smell of roasted meat.

Kerry threw himself into the grass nest next to Xu Yun, lay on his back on the ground, and let out a long breath.

"Timmy, are we too weak to hold you back?"

If you know, don't say it, it hurts your feelings to say it, isn't it? Xu Yun said in his heart

He thought about it, but he couldn't think of any comforting words, telling him to memorize a code or something, it's okay to say, he's not even bothered to watch chicken soup for the soul, he only likes to watch short videos and young ladies to dance, and the guy who drinks Coke and plays games alone, is not a psychology research substitute.

"Yes, at least for now."

Kerry covered his eyes in pain, and instead of looking at the clouds floating directly above, he turned his head to the side.

"But I'm sure you'll grow up." Xu Yun continued, "Sasria said that there is no end to the road of the strong, and how far you can go depends not only on your personal efforts. There is always a limit to a person's strength, when you surpass all the forerunners, move forward alone, have no companions and no one to catch up, you will fall into loneliness, confusion, and even loss. ”

"Some people will fall, and some will have their memories and even their personalities worn out because of the passage of time. There are also people who go astray or go crazy.

Even so, we are fortunate that we still have a lighthouse in front of this road, and those strong people called gods are the lights that dot our path. ”

"Really... Can you really become a god by working your own? Aren't the gods given from heaven? Kerry let go of the hand covering his eyes, and he held out a finger and pointed to the island that hung high in the sky forever, the highest and greatest authority in this world, where the Heavenly Principle was.

"Who knows? If you don't try it, who knows if this legend is fake? As far as I know, Teyvat had a time when the Demon God Wars were not as peaceful as they are now. ”

"Daedric Wars? What is that? It is not written in the textbook. ”

"Well, you think it's a story I saw in an ancient book you haven't seen."

"Oh."

"The topic has run away, the gods are the lighthouse, but we are all on the road to becoming strong people who are close to or even surpass the gods."

"But I've heard that you can't become a god just by awakening the Vision of God, and you must have the heart of a god to become a god." Lulu Mara had come over at some point.

"Well, but have you ever heard that a Vision can become a Godheart?"

"Can it still be like this?"

"What's impossible?" Xu Yun laughed, I've crossed over, what's impossible? Tomorrow, it's not impossible for Cthulhu to be caught by a traveler in an octopus and fed soup to an emergency food, right?

"The road before becoming a god is lonely and long, countless strong people have fallen on this road, if you grow fast enough, we can become fellow travelers, we can spur each other on, and we will not make this road too lonely."

These words were actually those that Sasria had said to him yesterday when she handed her the letter of introduction and the box containing the rough stones.

It seems that she has touched that threshold and seen a farther way forward, and her attitude towards herself, Xu Yun admires, not everyone has a tolerant mind. It was also during this meeting that Xu Yun learned Sasria's true identity in the Knights of Favonius, one of the three executive deputy leaders.

When she was fighting the Abyss Mage that day, she shouted the phrase 'Deputy Commander give me strength', which was actually heard by her.

This is another subtle misunderstanding.

"Before reaching the lighthouse of the gods, I expect you to be my companions and the force that spurs me forward."

Xu Yun slowly spat out the last words that Sasria said before saying goodbye to herself. Only slightly modified.

And he naturally remembered his answer clearly.

"I'll try."
