Chapter 20: Secret Realm: Acquaintances
The first principle of life preservation in the secret realm: summon the beast quickly!
Xia Ruan had just opened his eyes, and before he saw anything, he directly summoned the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger.
Feeling the appearance of the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger, Xia Soft had a sense of security.
Open your eyes?
Well, that's not right!
Didn't I keep my eyes open?
At this time, Xia Ruan suddenly realized that it was not that he had his eyes closed, but that it was completely dark around him, and only the full moon on his head that did not know how far away he was was emitting light.
Xia Soft: "Xiao Yi, make a fire and light it up!" β
A cluster of sparks appeared in the hands of the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger, and Xia Ruan didn't dare to let the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger put the fire too big.
The light in the darkness is not only a sign of light, but also of danger.
The second principle of life preservation in the secret realm: Don't run around if you have nothing to do, find a place to stay!
Xia Ruan didn't know what level of secret realm this was, but he didn't dare to be too prodigal, it would be funny if he didn't let himself go.
With the faint light of the fire, Xia Ruan found a large stone to cover up, leaned on the Red Winged Burning Sky Tiger and began to think about what to do next.
Although I didn't see it too clearly, but through the moonlight, Xia Soft could still feel that this secret realm was very desolate, filled with a dark aura, there was no trace of demon beast activity around, except for the dirt on the ground, it was stones, and even the tail grass with very tenacious vitality could not be seen.
Xia Ruan was still thinking deeply, and he heard a crying sound on his left, which was a little scary.
There is a high probability that this should be a secret realm similar to the Netherworld, and this cry should not be haunted by ghosts, right?
β¦β¦
On the other side, the creature mistaken for a ghost covered its mouth tightly and burst into tears.
The seven-colored deer standing beside him looked helplessly at his imperial envoy, and he really didn't know how this tearful personality was cultivated.
If Xia Ruan could see this seven-colored deer, he would definitely be able to recognize that this was the royal beast of his classmate Lu Dongbao.
As for why Lu Dongbao is here, that's another story.
Lu Dongbao was happily taking the seven-colored deer out for a part-time job at that time, and the seven-colored deer was very popular as a healing beast.
In order to save a little pocket money for himself, Lu Dongbao often takes advantage of his rest or weekends to help others heal.
Yuan Xiaoqing also knew about this, but the healing system of the imperial beast was supposed to heal others, so she didn't stop Lu Dongbao from doing this.
The naΓ―ve Lu Dongbao thought that no one had found out about him, and everyone else had already known about it, but they just didn't say it.
It's the same this time, Lu Dongbao took the order and happily went out of the school gate, who knew that he was so unlucky, he was obviously about to reach his destination, but he was hit by a burst of spatial suction that he didn't know where it came from.
The whole person began to be autistic.
β¦β¦
Xia Ruan, who relied on the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger, finally decided to take a look, what if it was an unlucky egg like himself?
You can't really see death without help!
Xia Ruan quietly touched in the direction where the cry came from, and when Lu Dongbao was only about 10 meters away, the seven-colored deer noticed the existence of the Red Winged Burning Sky Tiger, and quickly told Lu Dongbao about it.
When Lu Dongbao heard that someone had come to save him, he stopped crying, wiped away his tears and looked in the direction where Xia Ruan was.
Red-Winged Burning Sky Tiger: "Woo~"
[That black shadow over there seems to be a deer? γ
Xia Ruan thought to himself: Deer? I only seem to know a seven-colored deer, right?
When the distance between the two sides was less than three meters, Xia Ruan stopped and asked, "From the first middle school?" β
Lu Dongbao nodded hurriedly, suddenly thinking that he should not be visible on the other side, and then said, "That's right, my name is Lu Dongbao!" β
The voice was so loud that I was afraid that Xia Ruan wouldn't hear it.
The two sides successfully met, Lu Dongbao couldn't hide a smile on Xia Soft's face, finally someone can protect himself!
There is no shame at all for girls to protect themselves.
Xia Ruan and Lu Dongbao began a "pleasant" conversation.
Lu Dongbao kept talking, Xia Ruan didn't know whether he heard it or not, in short, the scene looked quite harmonious.
β¦β¦
Secret outside the borders.
As soon as Xia Guang'an received the notice from the school, he rushed to the scene with the Flame Monkey, and regardless of the obstruction of others, he must enter the secret realm to find Xia Soft.
In his heart, no matter how strong Xia Soft and Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger were, they were still just children, not to mention that Xia Soft's strength had just reached the level of an intermediate imperial envoy, and they had never entered the secret realm at all.
Just when Xia Guangan was about to make a move with the staff who stopped him, he noticed that Luo Shangqing on this side opened his mouth and said, "Let him follow the Luo family's hunting group in!" β
The people with the highest positions present all spoke, and the staff no longer stopped them, Xia Guangan thanked him gratefully, and then joined the Luo family's hunting group.
A group of people from the Luo family's hunting group also knew Xia Guang'an, to be precise, they knew Xia Soft.
For everyone who appeared next to Luo Xiao, Luo Junhong sent someone to investigate, and Xia Soft was also on the investigation list, as for the purpose of the investigation, only Luo Junhong himself knew it.
β¦β¦
The secret realm is both a danger and an opportunity, and the first team to enter the secret realm can always eat the best peaches.
Luo Shangqing is Luo Junhong's younger brother and Luo Xiao's second uncle.
When he learned the news that Luo Xiao was sucked into the secret realm, he notified his eldest brother as soon as possible, and used his power to successfully make the hunting group the first batch of people to enter the secret realm.
Although there is no way to only let the Luo family's hunting group enter, it is not easy to do this.
If it weren't for Luo Shangqing's strength having already broken through the advanced level, he would have to be the first to enter, Luo Xiao is the only seedling of the Luo family, and the gold is very expensive.
β¦β¦
Xia Ruan didn't know that her father had volunteered to enter the secret realm to find her, and she was busy "saving" the panicked Lu Dongbao.
Time goes back a few minutes ago.
Xia Soft was so told by Lu Dongbao that she was about to fall asleep, when Lu Dongbao suddenly asked in a frightened tone: "Xia Soft, you shouldn't be so bored as to poke my back, right?" β
Xia Ruan yawned and said, "Of course, how could I be so boring." β
Lu Dongbao was even more frightened, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and he said tremblingly: "What is that touching me?" Help......"
οΌοΌοΌ
Xia Ruan woke up in an instant, jumped up at once, stayed away from Lu Dongbao, and commanded the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger to check the situation.
"It's so dark, I can't see anything." Xia Ruan was complaining, and a soft and warm white light instantly lit up the surroundings.
It turned out that the seven-colored deer used the shine skill.
A blue-black figure with two horns on its head, a bulging belly, and a creature with only one eye appeared in Xia Ruan's eyes.
"Xiao Yi, grab it! To live! β
Bang!
The little thing was directly slapped away by the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger, and fell to the ground in a daze, vulnerable to a blow.
Seeing this, the seven-colored deer stuck the deer's hooves on the round belly of the little thing, making it impossible for him to escape.
The two of them and the two beasts gathered around the little thing and kept looking at it, and the appearance looked a little hideous in the light of the light bulb on the head of the seven-colored deer.
It seems that Xia Ruan and Lu Dongbao are demons, and that little thing is the object of bullying.
Lu Dongbao said: "Is this the one-eyed black worm written in the book?" β
Xia Ruan didn't know what a one-eyed black worm was, but that didn't prevent her from nodding in agreement: "It should be." β
Lu Dongbao quietly glanced sideways at Xia Ruan, with her score of 34 points, she shouldn't be able to recognize the one-eyed black worm.
Lu Dongbao took the initiative to introduce: "One-eyed black insects generally live in places with sufficient energy in the dark or shadow systems, it seems that this secret realm should be dominated by these two attributes......"
Xia Ruan continued to nod, still looking approving, no one could tell that she had just learned about the one-eyed black worm.
Demon beasts can be sold for money, and of course the living ones are more valuable than the dead ones.
Xia Ruan turned his head to look at Lu Dongbao and asked, "I didn't have a beast trap on me, did you bring it?" β
Lu Dongbao took out his animal trap and handed it to Xia Ruan, and said generously: "I still have a lot on me, use it casually." β
As long as he can hug Xia Soft, or the thigh of the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger, Lu Dongbao doesn't care about this little money.
The animal trap is a kind of prop specially used to catch demon beasts, the specific principle is very complicated, generally only the beast center is available, and it is more expensive to exchange or buy one.
But for the imperial envoy who has to go in and out of the secret realm often, this money is a drop in the bucket, and if you catch a few demon beasts in the secret realm and sell them, the money is enough to afford the price of the animal trap.
Xia Ruan took the animal trap and said: "When the time comes, I'll give you one percent, don't say that I cheat you." β
How dare Lu Dongbao, he still expects Xia Soft to protect himself.
After this experience, Xia Soft suddenly had a bold idea.
When he heard Xia Soft say that he was going to catch the demon beast, Lu Dongbao opened his mouth wide in shock, and he didn't recover for a long time.
Xia Ruan explained: "I just let the Red Winged Burning Sky Tiger smell it, there is no aura around him that scares him, do you want to follow me?"
If you don't, you can lend me the trap and wait for rescue here with the seven-colored deer. β
Redwing Burning Tiger: I'm a tiger, not a dog! Crying chirping.
After carefully analyzing the pros and cons, in the end, Lu Dongbao still chose to act with Xia Ruan, after all, he didn't have half of his combat effectiveness, and if he encountered danger like just now, he would definitely burp.
Xia Soft's luck has always been not very good, so he casually let Lu Dongbao point in a direction, and the two of them set off.
β¦β¦
Compared with Xia Ruan and Lu Dongbao's peace and soundness, Ouyang Zhi and Luo Xiao, who were also sucked into the secret realm, were much more miserable.
As soon as Ouyang Zhi entered the secret realm, she met a naughty ghost who liked to play hide and seek, and was caught by the naughty ghost before she could summon a flash jellyfish.
According to the rules of hide and seek, Ouyang Zhi must find the hiding place of the naughty ghost within the specified time, otherwise he will have to stay here and play games with the naughty ghost all the time.
Unless she's strong enough to take out the naughty guys.
But it was obvious that this was a hopeless thing, after all, the strength of the flash jellyfish was there, Ouyang Zhi had no choice but to agree to the game of the naughty ghost and began to go around in a labyrinthine cave to find the naughty ghost.
β¦β¦
Luo Xiao was even worse than Ouyang Zhilai, and the demon beasts he met didn't have the good temper of a naughty ghost.
It was a monster called the bloodthirsty leopard, and from the name you know, this leopard likes to suck the blood of its prey, especially human blood.
As an energetic male high school student, Luo Xiao's blood was full of youthful vitality, and he instantly attracted the bloodthirsty leopard not far from him.
The roaring demon wolf and the bloodthirsty leopard are entangled.
β¦β¦
Xia Ruan, who took Lu Dongbao on the road, encountered a lot of good things along the way.
Lu Dongbao: "This is Black Rock, a rock that can be used to craft dark weapons. β
Xia Soft: "Is it worth it?" β
Lu Dongbao: "It's valuable." β
The conversation between the two along the way is basically like this, Xia Soft gave full play to his nature as a fan of money, and took away all the resources that he could take away, and he wished that he had eight hands.
At this time, Xia Ruan regretted very much why he didn't meet Ouyang Zhi's free storage, and it was a pity that he couldn't take so many things away.
Lu Dongbao, who followed Xia Soft, also gained a lot, and the two of them all picked up valuable things to take, and they didn't know if they were really lucky, and they really didn't find out about the existence of the two by the demon beasts.
Of course, there is also the role of the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger's Endurance Skill, which has already reached the mastery level.
Not only can it help the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger hide its aura, but it can also help Xia Soft to weaken his aura by the way.
Although it can't be said that it can't be discovered at all, in this E-level secret realm, as long as you don't encounter high-level demon beasts, you won't be discovered.
As for why you said that Lu Dongbao was not discovered, it can only be attributed to luck.
No, Lu Dongbao took the seven-colored deer to discover the place where the evening primrose grows.
Evening primrose is a special spirit grass, and it is only possible to grow it in places that are exposed to moonlight all year round.
The preciousness of evening primrose is that it can be used to heal damage caused by the dark or shadow system, and it can also be used to evolve the imperial beast that can use the power of the moon, and its value is far higher than the pile of things that Xia Soft just discovered.
Xia Ruan instructed the Red-Winged Burning Sky Tiger to pay attention to the surroundings and began to pull weeds with Lu Dongbao, while the Seven-Colored Deer followed Lu Dongbao's ass and quietly nibbled on the evening primrose.
Seven-Colored Deer: Is there a problem with one of my deer liking to eat grass? No problem at all, okay!
When the back pack was gone, the two stopped, and were about to leave when they saw the Red Winged Burning Sky Tiger and a black figure fighting together.
Xia Ruan took the opportunity to take Lu Dongbao to retreat, so as not to be involved in the aftermath of the battle, and the small bodies of the two of them could not be stopped at all.
The demon beasts in the secret realm are not as obedient as the royal beasts in reality, and they can strictly abide by the imperial envoy's orders and not hurt the imperial envoy, and the demon beasts don't care so much, whether you are a human or a beast, you will be killed without discrimination.
Lu Dongbao: "Xiao Qi, you also go up to help!" β
Seven-colored deer: "Yo yo yo! β
[Rush! Deer deer! γ
The seven-colored deer screamed and rushed over, of course, she was still sensible, knowing that she had no attack ability, just standing not far away and observing, once she found a good time, she would make a move to increase the buff to the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger.
Fighting the Redwing Burning Tiger is a flying monster named the Sharp-beaked Owl, with a mouth that can break off a boulder and is indestructible.
Lu Dongbao said nervously: "You see that the tail of this sharp-beaked owl is almost 3 feathers, it must be almost level 30." β
Even though he was panicked, Xia Ruan's face still remained calm and said: "It's okay, let's fight two and one, don't be cowardly!" β
Lu Dongbao was speechless: "......"
Xia Ruan turned his head to look at Lu Dongbao and said, "What auxiliary skills does the seven-colored deer have that can increase combat effectiveness, hurry up and use it!" β
Lu Dongbao was speechless again: "......"
Aren't you in a hurry?
What to urge!
Midair.
There are more and more wounds on the body of the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger, all of which are pecked by the big mouth of the sharp-beaked owl, which can make the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger angry.
[I've been on the battlefield since I was born, and I haven't been talked about with my mouth, you stinky bird is simply shameless. γ
Seeing the miserable appearance of the Red Winged Burning Sky Tiger, the sharp-beaked owl became even more rampant, and flicked its tail one after another, for fear that the Red Winged Burning Sky Tiger on the opposite side would not be able to see its own snort.
Underplayed!
At this moment, the seven-colored deer that had been fighting for a long time finally found a chance to make a move, and a healing technique descended on the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger, followed by a speed blessing skill thrown on the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger.
I saw that the wounds on the Red Wing Burning Sky Tiger were slowly healing, and the speed of chasing the sharp-beaked owl instantly increased several times, and it flew behind the sharp-beaked owl at once.
The Red-Winged Sky Burning Tiger's eyes lit up, and he looked at the few feathers in front of him.
As soon as the claws were stretched and pulled, the buttocks of the sharp-billed owl were bald all at once.
[Let you talk about me!] γ
The wound is not large, and it is extremely insulting.
"Chirp! Chirp! Chirp! β
[I ****** the dead tiger ******]
The sharp-beaked owl covered his tail and instantly jumped into the sky, even if Xia Soft couldn't understand the owl's language, he could feel that the sharp-beaked owl was scolding very dirty, and couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Lu Dongbao next to him.
I thought Lu Dongbao was useless, but it turned out to be so useful!
β¦β¦
The scarred roaring demon wolf staggered forward with Luo Xiao, and suddenly heard a heart-rending cry not far away.
Luo Xiao decided to take a gamble and let the roaring demon wolf run in the direction where the voice came from.
Even if you are an enemy, even if you are unlucky, you can survive if you are a friend, and the current situation cannot be worse.
In the face of the bloodthirsty leopard in his thirties, Luo Xiao forgot how he survived with the roaring demon wolf, but if he was not treated again, Luo Xiao would really take the roaring demon wolf to Elysium.
