Chapter 19: The Pea and the Giant

"Fayir?" Diarlando looked out, it was a shallow cave, and at this moment Fayle was leaning on the edge of the cave, vigilantly holding his bronze bone staff to himself.

"Master?" Achille's voice rang out, and the boy's head popped out from under Deirlando's shoulder, and Fair waved happily at the sight.

Dearlando pushed the stone all the way away, drilled out, and walked over to Fayle's side to check on him. "You're hurt?"

Fayer was standing in an unnatural position, leaning against the cave wall with his ribs in his left hand, as if he was protecting something. When he looked closer, a little blood was seeping out of his robes, soaking into a reddish patch on the drenched fabric.

"It's a small problem, it's just a scrape. How did you get out of here?" said Fayle, gasping for a moment, loosening his bone staff, as he surveyed the crowd of people and bears emerging from the cave.

"That monster's lair is underneath here, I just solved it, and then I found a secret passage, and I came up from here. Who can hurt you?" explained Dearrando as he walked out of the cave to see where he was.

"Hah...... Look outside, you're good at it!" Fayle scoffed, then paused in satisfaction as he saw what was happening outside.

It is halfway up a gentle hill, with several lower dirt slopes in front of it, and a wide view of the large plain surrounded by mountains and the small town in the middle of the plain.

Now, in the center of the town, towering giant vines have sprung up in several places, perhaps more than a thousand feet high, and those plants are still growing wildly. Curled vines and stems and leaves grew in all directions, threatening to completely cover the land.

From a distance, the town was surrounded by small ants and crazy plants fleeing. I haven't seen a plant attacking a human yet, and it seems that the thing is trying to grow endlessly.

"Wow...... It reminds me of that bedtime story about peas and giants. Diarlando marveled at the spectacle in front of him, and then asked curiously, "How did this come about?"

“...... I threw the green onion fruit with the growth potion into the water monster's body. Fayl said unwillingly: "But I didn't expect that this thing not only did not consume all the energy by the infinitely reproducing individual fruit, but instead integrated the magic of the fruit, and now it is reforming into a new creature, using light to obtain more energy." ”

Diarlando shook his head wordlessly, but it made Fayle angrier more than he actually laughed at. But he was self-inflicted, and he couldn't blame others, so Fayer had to hold his breath and continue to explain.

"There is also one next to this hill, and I was looking here, but I was poked by its sudden branches. Then I killed this one with frost and meteorite, but it didn't work to kill one, and soon more will grow around. Fayl waved his hand excitedly, but it touched the wound and made a gasping sound in pain.

"Master...... Would you like to bandage it first?" Achille couldn't help but remind as he looked at Fayle's wound and seemed to be bleeding.

"Bandage? I watched the little seedlings around me fight more and more, and I had no choice but to find this cave, and just as I was about to treat the wound, you came out. It's okay, I'll leave it to you outside of Diarlando, and I'm going to take care of the wound. With that, a flame lit up in Fayer's hand, and then pressed against his wound.

There was a sting, and the smell of burnt skin and flesh suddenly came out. The girls next to him let out a scream, and even Achille was startled.

Tess Xi said in a trembling voice: "Mr. Mage, I have a healing elixir, which was given to me by my uncle, and he is a healing priest in Kuanglu City next door. After saying that, he pulled a close-fitting necklace pendant from his neck, which was a beautiful small crystal bottle with half a bottle of golden liquid in it.

"Don't ...... The mage was allergic to potions, which not only did not cure him, but also made him more seriously injured. If you have healing magic, you can use it, but unfortunately I can't. Dearlando politely declined the girl's kindness.

He hadn't forgotten that Fayer was a native of Bran, and every cell in his body was soaked in the magical elements of the Dragon King. For the magic of the starlight dragon, which is the main healing elixir, it is inherently repulsive.

The girl's eyes lit up, and she said excitedly: "I also know some basic healing spells, originally after participating in this celebration, if I am not elected Miss Winny, I will follow my uncle into the Royal Priesthood Academy to study, so he has taught me some introductory spells." ”

Fayer's face was paler than before, and his bleeding lips were a little chapped, but he still couldn't help but speak: "I don't think I need to, I can recover after a while, you also know that I have a special physique, and I have repaired the bigger injuries by myself." ”

"The problem is that I don't have time for you to rest, and if you wait a little longer, those plants may cause casualties. I need you to get me to the center of them and help me get rid of these mutated plants. Dearlando waved his hand to let Tessie move, and Fayer looked at Deirlando's non-negotiable expression and relaxed in resignation.

The others looked at Tess enviously, and Achille said to himself with a lonely face: "I want to learn healing techniques quickly, and in the future, I can heal everyone." ”

Originally, Diarlando gave him a few beginner healing priest scrolls, but Achille didn't want to be an assistant so he didn't bother to read them, and now he regrets it a little.

Tess approached Fayle, gathered her hands over his wounds, and whispered a spell in her mouth. The girl's pious prayer, condensed in the words of magic, summoned the reborn Liliang, turned into a warm light source and covered the wound.

The wound that had been punctured by the vines was cruelly sealed by Fayle with high temperature, and although it no longer bleed, it was still painful. At this moment, under the girl's prayer, the warm liliang slowly seeped through the charred wound, the cells regenerated, and the muscles and skin were restored to a healthy appearance.

After a while, Tess put down her hand and whispered, "I can only do this, maybe there is still some inside your wound that is not good, and you will still feel pain." ”

Fayle waved his hand and said, "That's already good, xiexie you." ”

Deirrando pulled Nana the black bear and tapped her on the back, which deformed and expanded into the shape of a seat. Then he said to Fayle, "Go up, and pass us to the center where the vines are most densely climbed." ”

"And what do we do?" Achille asked.

"It's safe right now, you're here waiting for us to come back and pick you up. Dearlando's voice drifted through the smoke of the transmission, leaving the helpless teenagers and teenage girls looking at each other.

The densest concentration of the huge vines was by the river where Fayer had begun to throw the green fruits, and there were three vines arranged at equal distances. This is where Fayer and Dearlandor teleported to.

Each vine of the gigantic legume plant was as thick as a house, the woods had been completely destroyed and razed, and the nearby walls and houses had been torn apart by the thick roots that had sprung up from the ground.

Looking up, the eyes are full of turquoise colors, and the sky is almost completely obscured, and only the gaps in the leaves can reveal the sporadic little sunlight after the rain.

"I wonder what kind of jihua you have - against such a huge ......" Fayle looked at the plant, and he couldn't tell what kind of it was.

"Anything or anything! Oh no, it's a dozen! According to my observations, when the mother plant is dried, it will take a maximum of ten minutes for more new seedlings to grow around it. ”

Dearlando smirked and said, "You know, no matter how big it is, it's just an all-you-can-eat vegetable salad to me." You're right, it will multiply, so we'll see if it's it that grows fast, or if Ryses eats fast~"

After saying that, Diarlando pointed to his shoulder, and Fair noticed that the young dragon that was clinging to the leather armor and was ignored by himself because the color and texture were too similar.

The young dragon squirted a small fireball in satisfaction and made a urging coo.

"Nana will carry you around, solve your movement problems, all you have to do is release a tornado big and high enough to sweep all the vegetables I cut into the air so that they don't fall and hit anything. ”

"Nana......" Fayl paused, "this is our circus bear?"

The bear that was transformed into a beast servant by Dirlando was twice as large as the original, and it was fully armored, so it was no wonder that Fair didn't recognize it at first.

"Hmm...... There was an emergency down there. I'll take these three and see how fast they regenerate, you're ready!" Diarlandor finished speaking, and with a whoosh he jumped onto the nearest vine and ran up the main pole at a rapid pace.

As he ran and jumped, he stretched out his magic sword, divided it into two long knives, and began to open his bow left and right when he jumped to the middle and upper part of the demon vine, slashing and slashing. The young dragon happily levitated, swallowing all the magical stems and leaves that were scattered around.

The plant monster was slow to react, and it wasn't until Deirlando had cut down nearly half of the three vines that the defense mechanism began to react. The flowers on the trunk that were about to bloom have all changed color, and the normal pink buds have now turned into an eerie blue-black.

When Deirlandor jumped near the buds, a poisonous blue mist erupted, and sharp thorns began to grow on all the vines, and as soon as they touched the leaves or branches, the spikes suddenly lengthened like steel needles, trying to poke the intruder through.

But none of these things could stop Dearrando's sturdy figure, and these fragile defenses could not stop the damage of magic weapons in the slightest.

As the young dragon swallowed more and more magic vines, its size also grew, and soon expanded from less than the size of a palm to about five meters long. At this moment, it couldn't wait for Dierlando to slowly cut through the vines, and jumped directly onto one, swallowing and drinking without any scruples.

When he reached Zuihou Dierlando, he simply stopped, jumped back to the ground and stood with Fayer, looking up at the young dragon feasting.

"Do you want a tornado again?" asked Fayle lightly.

"No need...... Not even a leaf was pulled down......" Dearlando replied leisurely.
