Chapter 175: Loyal Dog
On the outskirts of the imperial city of Andressa.
There is a wooden house hidden in the woods. The wooden house is beautiful and tidy, which is somewhat out of tune with the surrounding damp and dark woods, but it is hidden in the shadow of the woods in the dark night, and you can't really see it if you don't look carefully.
Outside the house, Leo was the only one sitting in front of the cabin, looking up at the bright moon and sighing quietly.
At this time, the wooden house slowly opened, revealing a small gap, and Alice's head popped out from inside: "What's wrong with you?"
"Hmm? Alice." Leo turned around and greeted Alice, but did not stand up. He still sat on the ground. "I was just thinking about Lingyi. Does he have a chance of winning against those guys alone?"
After hearing this, Alice's eyes trembled slightly, and she looked towards the direction of the imperial city with the same worry as Leo, but she returned to normal after a few seconds and comforted Leo: "Xiao Yi must have his own plan for what happened. He is not such a reckless person."
"I hope this is for the best. Is everyone else asleep?" Leo put his hands behind his back, supporting the back of his head, and leaned against the wooden wall beside the wooden door.
Alice also quietly opened the door and walked out of the wooden house. Then she quietly closed the wooden door and leaned against it: "How can they sleep in this situation? Xiaojiu cast a hypnotic spell to make them fall asleep."
"Really..." Leo said, the worry in his eyes gradually turned into unwillingness, and he clenched his fists slightly, "If my training can keep up with you and Xiaoyi, maybe..."
"Don't say that. You should know what Xiaoyi is thinking. He has never regarded us as a burden." Although she said so, there was still a hint of confusion in Alice's eyes.
Leo glanced over and naturally saw the confusion in Alice's eyes. The three of them grew up together, and Lingyi was the youngest, so he was taken care of by Alice and Leo. But many times, Lingyi still solved the problem, which made the two of them seem to be causing trouble for Lingyi.
Five years ago, since Zero One disappeared without a trace, the two encountered too many troubles while studying alone in Nord Town College. They were kicked out of the college because they could not open the level level and had to steal food on the street to make a living. They also gradually realized the importance of Zero One during this period. Although both of them wanted to protect Zero One, they actually relied on Zero One silently.
This strong contrast and the contrast with reality made them feel more than once that they might be a burden to Zero One. And now after the reunion, they were shocked by Zero One's strength. When they fought against the Goblin King, they understood Zero One's incomparable strength. Perhaps they will rely on Zero One more from now on.
But they didn't want to be like this, they didn't want to be the one being protected, and they didn't want to be too dependent on others. Everyone present had this thought, and that's why they couldn't sleep until Xiao Jiu cast a hypnotic spell and couldn't resist their physiological instincts and fell into a deep sleep.
But this thought became particularly strong in Alice and Leo's hearts. Lingyi had not been able to awaken successfully when he was a child, and had been looking for a way to break through. Now that he can use magic power, stand on his own, and even kill various powerful enemies, Alice and Leo are very excited for Lingyi, as if they have returned to the time when they first awakened their magic power.
But the worry besides the excitement made them even more confused. Is it really okay to rely on Zero One so much? Even if they practiced hard, they couldn't keep up with Zero One, let alone the fighting level of those opponents who were fighting against Zero One at this time. Is it really okay to continue to follow Zero One on adventures?
"Oh..." Leo sighed slowly, stood up with the help of the ground, walked out of the eaves of the wooden house, bathed in the moonlight, as if he had made some kind of decision, and slowly turned his head to look at Alice.
Alice was slightly startled when she saw Leo being so serious, but she knew that Leo seemed to have made up his mind, and it might be similar to what she thought. The corners of her mouth slightly raised, and like Leo, she walked out of the eaves of the wooden house: "Leo, are you..."
Leo took a deep breath and said slowly: "Alice, I think we should..."
"Woof!" A dog's bark broke the silence, and the next moment the wooden door of the wooden house was instantly broken open.
Bao Bao had transformed into a beast at this time. He frantically slammed the wooden door open and looked around anxiously.
"Bao Bao? What's wrong with you?" Although Alice was frightened by Bao Bao's behavior just now, she calmed down the moment she saw it was Bao Bao.
Bao Bao did not answer Alice's question, but just sniffed something towards the sky anxiously. His huge tail, which was originally shaking violently, was now tightly clamped between his legs.
The sound of the bag hitting the wooden door instantly woke up everyone in the house. They ran out of the wooden house in panic. Xiao Jiu stared at the bag blankly and asked in confusion: "No way, with the blessing of my demon fairy power, hypnotic magic has no effect?"
Doudou had already run to Baobao's side. Seeing Baobao shaking all over, he slowly reached out and put his hand on Baobao's back: "Baobao, what's wrong with you? Why are you so panicked all of a sudden?"
"I hope nothing happened to Xiaoyi." Sheila responded immediately.
“That’s impossible. Even those of us who are connected to the Saint’s Mark didn’t notice Xiaoyi’s crisis. Baobao doesn’t even have the Saint’s Mark, so how could she notice Xiaoyi’s crisis?” Xiaojiu analyzed calmly, but she didn’t understand why Baobao was so manic at this moment.
Pegasus covered his chest and sensed Zero One's position. "Master, there is really no big problem at this moment. It's just that the magic power is depleted a little too fast. It may be the influence of using "Sunday". We should listen to the master and stay here."
Pegasus and Zero-One have the Mark of the Saint and the connection of contract summoning, so after hearing Pegasus' analysis, everyone nodded slowly.
But the difference was that Bao Bao kept shouting towards the palace and even took slow steps. Dou Dou quickly hugged Bao Bao and said, "Bao Bao, what's wrong with you? Wait, calm down."
"Woof!" Bao Bao roared again. The sky was filled with circles of magic circles, forming an air wall. A pitch-black ball of light appeared on each magic circle, absorbing energy and ready to go.
“That, that is…” Everyone couldn’t help but widen their eyes when they saw the strange sight in the sky.
Leo immediately reacted when he saw this scene: "I remember Xiaoyi doesn't seem to know any other magic, Pegasus!"
"Yes, although the master has awakened his magic power, he is still unable to learn other magic. He can only use "Sunday" to solve the problem in combat." Pegasus was also shocked as he looked at the air wall formed by the magic circle.
Leo gritted his teeth and observed the air wall carefully: "The shape, the magic is behind the magic circle, is it aimed at the front? Could it be that it is aimed at Zero One!"
"Woof!" Bao Bao was already extremely anxious. He pushed his legs hard, broke free from Doudou's arms, soared into the sky, disappeared into the woods, and ran wildly towards the imperial city.
……
Ding! A metallic collision sound was heard.
Lingyi came to the alien with the Red Lotus Sword in both hands, aimed at the alien's neck and chopped down without hesitation.
But to Lingyi's surprise, even with the blessing of "Sun" and Long'er's "Silver Dragon Claw", the Red Lotus Sword still did not hurt the alien.
The blade was actually stuck on the alien's neck, without even penetrating the skin. It looked as if it was just gently stuck on it, but no matter how hard Zero One tried, the blade didn't penetrate even a little bit.
Lingyi and Long Er were shocked: "How could this happen..."
"Don't think that this is the end! Low and lowly human!" The alien roared, and huge energy waves instantly poured out from around the alien's body.
"Xiao Yi!" Long Er roared, controlling the six wings behind him to wrap his body, resisting the fluctuation of magic power. However, at the moment of resistance, Ling Yi's body was bounced away without any suspense.
The several tornadoes that Zero One had originally cast with the help of "Sun" dissipated instantly, and the six wings that wrapped around Zero One's body also dissipated. The tail and dragon horns also dissipated, and the eyes turned back into Zero One's appearance. Zero One himself was knocked away by the energy wave and fell and rolled dozens of meters away.
"Cough cough... How, is it possible..." Lingyi covered his chest with his right hand and coughed out a mouthful of blood. His left hand was completely numb. He fell to his knees and didn't even have the strength to stand up. "Long'er, Long'er, how are you, Long'er!" Long'er's possession state was completely broken. This was the first time he encountered such a situation.
After Long Er possessed him, he would always return his body to Ling Yi, even if he had to exchange control of his body with him. At worst, he would use his soul to take it back from Long Er. But now Long Er was defeated by brute force while possessed. Long Er was still in soul state. If Long Er's soul was hurt, the consequences would be disastrous.
But after a long time, Long Er did not respond to Ling Yi. Ling Yi could not help but widen his eyes, and hurriedly touched his left cheek with his right hand, and said in panic: "Long Er, stop making trouble, come out quickly. Long Er, what's wrong with you, Long Er, Long Er!"
Lingyi also lost his mind for a moment, and even slapped his left cheek with his right hand: "Long'er! Long'er! What's wrong with you, Long'er! Answer me!"
The alien's body slowly floated up, as if being held up by something, helping him slowly to right himself. At this moment, he saw Lingyi kneeling on the ground in embarrassment. He couldn't help but sneer, "It's back. Hahahaha, I didn't expect that the soul of the dragon clan is so fragile. I can turn it into ashes with just a little bit of my strength, hahahaha..."
"What, everything turned to ashes and smoke?" Lingyi's eyes shook slightly, and his eye sockets gradually became moist. After just a few seconds, two lines of clear tears slowly flowed down.
"Yeah, it was reduced to ashes!" the alien laughed, "But that guy protected you until his death, and used his wings to protect your body well, just to prevent you from being affected by this wave. But it's a pity that you almost killed me, just a little bit, one factor is missing, a factor that humans can't achieve, hahahaha!"
Lingyi shook his head decisively and roared: "No, I don't believe it. Long'er can't die. She is a member of the dragon clan! The only member of the dragon clan who has survived to this day! There is no way she would die so easily..."
"Then why don't you call her! She originally possessed you in a spirit state. If you could get rid of it on your own, everything would be fine. But now she has been defeated and scattered by my magic! You still want her to live? Hahahaha." The alien sneered, "But you two are really difficult to deal with. If I hadn't used 90% of my power in the last attack, I might not have been able to get rid of that dragon."
Lingyi wanted to deny it and wanted to confront the alien who was wrong, but the facts were before him. No matter how Lingyi called, Long'er did not respond to him. Suddenly, Lingyi felt a headache and coughed up blood again. He fell forward and the wound on his left shoulder bleed again. Lingyi immediately fell in a pool of blood.
The mark of the saint on his forehead glowed, releasing golden light particles that gradually restored Lingyi's body. Although the penetrating wound on his left button could not be healed, the side effect of "Sunday" was that his magic power could be replenished when it was exhausted.
Mark of the Saint?
When Lingyi felt the light on his forehead, he remembered that there was a connection between him and Long'er through the Mark of the Holy Maiden. After Lingyi's long-term research, the Mark of the Holy Maiden could sense each other's positions. If Long'er was really dead, then he would not be able to sense Long'er.
But Long Er is a soul body, can it really be sensed? But on second thought, Long Er, as a soul body, does have the mark of the Saint.
