Xu Jinghong and Liang Yongjie were in the sa place. Despite having tried to move to a more open area, their slow pace ant they hadn’t gotten very far.
There were trees everywhere, and Liang Yongjie dared not let Xu Jinghong use too much fire because the restless snakes could easily ignite the area. Then, the snakes might not leave, and they themselves could be burned to death.
"Brother!" Spotting Liang Yongjie, Liang Yongjun burst into tears of joy, and instantly used the Energy Arrow to cut open his shirt, breaking free from Qian Qi’s grasp and jumped down.
Qian Qi: ???
Before Qian Qi could react, she watched him fall beside Liang Yongjie, swiftly pulling his bow to shoot the nearby Demon Snake.
"This lunatic..." Qian Qi had never encountered soone so eager to die. She hovered above them, directly pinching the vital point of the Demon Snake attacking her, exploding it.
She shook off the flesh fragnts from her hand, frowned and looked down, "Xu Jinghong, co up!"
"Huh?" Hearing his na, Xu Jinghong raised his head in confusion, and was startled at seeing Qian Qi, "Whoa, you can fly?"
"Fly?" Liang Yongjie saw Qian Qi in the air and his eyes lit up, imdiately giving Xu Jinghong a push towards Qian Qi, "Quick! Take him away first!"
Qian Qi was genuinely shocked by the selflessness of Liang Yongjie and Liang Yongjun. She really didn’t expect that upon learning she could fly, these two brothers would unanimously decide to send Xu Jinghong away first.
These brothers...
If she failed to rescue them today, she would definitely visit their graves on their morial day to pay respects!!!
Xu Jinghong still seed hesitant, but Qian Qi swiftly grabbed his collar and Liang Yongjun’s waistband, and directly lifted them into the sky.
The caught-off-guard Liang Yongjun: ???
Why grab soone’s waistband!!!
Xu Jinghong looked at Liang Yongjun slightly sympathetically.
"Let go of !" Liang Yongjun struggled, his voice full of anger, "I said don’t worry about , I want to stay with my brother!"
Qian Qi gave him a cold glance, "Whatever, if you have the guts, like just now, then take off your pants and jump down to save your brother again."
Liang Yongjun: ...
Being sumr, Liang Yongjun wasn’t wearing long underwear, aning if he tore off the waistband too...
Liang Yongjun felt both sad and angry, "Why won’t you let down? Don’t you know that without my brother, I can’t survive!"
"Shut up, you hopeless brother-complex." Qian Qi didn’t want to listen to his nonsense, "I’ve already figured out a plan."
Liang Yongjun gave a couple of sniffs, and when he realized, his eyes widened, "Huh? Really?"
"Just know that I’ll take the lion’s share when we sell the Magic Beast this ti." Qian Qi sped towards their destination with the two in tow.
Once they arrived, she swiftly jumped down from the system panel.
Liang Yongjun looked around, feeling this place seed familiar, like he’d been here before.
Qian Qi walked to a spot and crouched down to dig. Seeing this slightly familiar action, Liang Yongjun finally recalled.
Isn’t this where Qian Qi dug for the artifact last ti?
Except last ti, Qian Qi seed to be at... Liang Yongjun looked around and then at his feet: it seed she dug at this very spot.
But now Qian Qi was digging sowhere else, could it be she rembered the location wrong last ti?
Liang Yongjun was pondering this when suddenly he saw Qian Qi stand up again. She took a couple of steps to stabilize into a squat position, then seed to grip sothing with her small hands and flipped it entirely out.
Liang Yongjun and Xu Jinghong, beside him, watched as a massive dark green shell was flipped out of the ground. The shell was so large it even affected the two nearby, causing them to stumble and fall from its surface.
Covered in soil, Liang Yongjie: ???
Covered in soil, Xu Jinghong: ???
They were shocked looking at the enormous turtle shell spanning almost five ters long, then at the petite figure of Qian Qi: could this really be the artifact she hid away?
Compared to their shock, Qian Qi felt both relieved and inclined to curse. She was relieved that she guessed correctly, the instance reward was a turtle shell, which could be used to save Liang Yongjie and the others. The curse was that this artifact turned out to be so large, it was totally sothing that fell off a D-level boss Demon Turtle!
"You..." Liang Yongjun approached Qian Qi, staring at the shell, unsure of what to say.
"Less talk, hop on!" Qian Qi didn’t want to listen to his blabbering. She flipped the shell over, its curved top becoming hollow, then unceremoniously tossed Liang Yongjun and Xu Jinghong inside like throwing a dung ball.
Then she gripped the edge of the turtle shell, dragging it like a round boat, and started sprinting towards the snake swarm.
Da Liang Team!
Hold on for a bit longer! Noah’s Turtle Boat is arriving soon!
...
"Captain! My Elental Power is about to wear out!" Yao Na flicked her Thunder Whip towards the nearby Demon Snakes, only managing to flip them over without damaging them at all. Evidently, her Elental Power was nearing its exhaustion point.
"Captain, I’m also running out of energy..." Fan Haixing was panting and drenched in sweat, barely managing to punch away flying Demon Snakes. Even so, his arms had already suffered nurous injuries, fortunately these Demon Snakes weren’t poisonous, or else they wouldn’t have survived until now.
Liang Yongjie clenched his fist, feeling powerless. After awakening from the Illusion Realm, they originally intended to find the departing Qian Qi and Liang Yongjun. But out of nowhere, these Demon Snakes erged from the ground and hollowed trees, attacking them without any warning.
The number of Demon Snakes was overwhelming, and they kept gathering towards the center. In less than 3 minutes, their exhausted selves would be devoured.
"I’m sorry..." Liang Yongjie croaked, "Maybe we shouldn’t have left the team today."
"Don’t say that." Fan Haixing shook his head with a bitter smile, "Didn’t we embark on this journey ready to face death?"
Raiding instances is dangerous, let alone new ones. They were bound to die in an instance sooner or later, the issue was just the timing.
"At least those two students will survive." Yao Na cast out another Thunder Whip, the purple whip flickered weakly, nearly losing its whip-like form. She took a deep breath, "I wonder if they’ll have psychological scars."
"That’s unlikely, I think?" Liang Yongjie chuckled, "Didn’t we enter the school’s instance during our sophomore year? If they can’t overco psychological hurdles, do they deserve to be students of the Awakener University?"
"Haha, I still rember when the captain wet his pants during the first instance assessnt when a Demon Bear scared him!" Yao Na couldn’t help but laugh, though she couldn’t conjure the Thunder Whip anymore, resorting to grabbing a flying Demon Snake bare-handed and letting out a quiet cry of pain as a chunk of flesh was bitten off her arm.
She fiercely threw the Demon Snake away, covered the bleeding wound on her arm, and looked towards Liang Yongjie with eyes slowly filled with bittersweet affection, "Captain, it seems we’ll really die here, before we do I hope you know..."
She weakly smiled at Liang Yongjie in warmth, "I love you, and I really wish to marry you."
Liang Yongjie was taken aback for a mont, then felt a sting in his heart, "Nana..."
"Hey, do you two want to kiss?" Fan Haixing struggled to kick away the surrounding snake swarm, laughing heartily, "Otherwise you won’t get another chance!"
Despite facing death, the three remained frank and hearty. Liang Yongjie looked at Yao Na, his gaze gradually softening.
"Yao Na, I love you too, have loved you for a long ti." He reached out to gently tuck the damp ssy hair behind Yao Na’s ear, then raised her chin, tilting his lips towards hers.
Just as their lips were about to touch, a loud and wild laugh suddenly approached swiftly from afar, full of audacity, "Hahahahaha, Da Liang Team, I’m dragging a turtle shell to rescue you!!!"
Liang Yongjie and Yao Na froze simultaneously, then turned their heads in surprise.
