C45

Seeing Anna choking, Liang Yue felt a little strange, "What's wrong?"

This was the first time Anna had seen half of his face, perhaps because he was in a good mood after eating something, but Liang Yue's words didn't deliberately imitate her tone, but instead she used her usual, very natural voice.

Her tone was the same as usual, very gentle, with a unique charm. Anna felt that he was more amiable than before, and her face was a little red as she asked, "You …." Wait... Is it then... You just left? " The voice that spoke seemed to be hesitating and shy.

"What?"

Liang Yue tilted her head, expressing doubt, "Why? Weren't you still unable to complete the mission? "

"Ugh …" Hearing Liang Yue's words, Anna's face became redder and redder. Lowering her head, she softly said a word of thanks, then turned around and continued eating the barbecue.

He didn't secretly raise his eyes to look at the man in front of him. This man looked completely different from the man who was brimming with killing intent before. He sounded very friendly and his voice made people feel close.

Not to mention the red-haired witch who could make all the students in the academy avoid her. As a result, she was indeed a powerful person, and he had already made up his mind not to provoke her, but to strike up a good relationship with her instead.

Just as he was thinking this, the man in front of him stood up and asked, "What are you going to do next?"

Cory hurriedly put down the roasted meat and wiped his mouth with his sleeve. "Although it's a bit miserable, I've already completed my test so I should head back." After saying this, he suddenly thought of something and said it again.

"If you need my help …"

Liang Yue interrupted her, "Then, I wish you good luck. Let's separate here!" Liang Yue had chased him away. This student was too weak, and was a burden to him and Anna. Since they had already accomplished their goal, then they might as well chase him back.

After the three of them had eaten their fill, Liang Yue extinguished the fire. After putting everything away, she clasped her hands towards Corey and bid him farewell.

"Good luck!"

"You too!"

After saying their goodbyes, the two of them set out on the road to find the last cow-headed giant beast, this was for Anna's test.

After eating, not to mention, it was such a delicious barbecue. Although it was a bit monotonous, the mood after the meal was still pretty good.

Anna's mood was clearly very good, she was running in front of Liang Yue, her bouncing mouth seemed to be humming a little tune.

"Humph, humph, humph!"

Hearing Anna humming a song, Liang Yue's lips curved up in a smile. She said to Anna in front of her, "I think it would be better if you were like this."

Anna suddenly stopped, and stammered out a reply, "You …" What are you talking about... "And?" He didn't know why, but his voice was a little loud and a little stiff.

"Nothing …" "I just feel that you're much better than you were the first time …" When Liang Yue saw Anna stop, he also stopped, "Look, the first time I met you, didn't you already say that I was shameful and wanted to take off my face scarf?"

"Then... It was you who bumped into me first! " Anna protested to Liang Yue and even turned around, waving her little fist.

"Alright …" My fault, my fault … " Although the two of them hadn't been in the forest for long, they already felt that they were very good friends. Liang Yue knew that the students were somewhat afraid of Anna, and since she was also lonely, she had no choice but to admit her mistakes.

Anna turned around, and after calming herself down, patted her chest, "Go for it!"

Liang Yue's question just now made Anna almost think that he wanted to say something. In the end, it seemed that he was only comparing it with her from before. However, his impression of her had changed; after all, he had left a bad impression on her.

He should be alone. He definitely had a chance. After cheering themselves on, the two of them walked around here together.

"Phew …"

The sound of the axe breaking through the air came from Anna's side. Liang Yue's pupils constricted, and she used all her strength to charge forward.

"Ding."

When the axes and sabers clashed, sparks appeared in the air, causing Liang Yue's hand to tremble slightly. The strength in which she wielded the axe was extremely great.

Anna looked at the people who were protecting her with a sword, and didn't know how to react, she just stared blankly at him.

"What are you standing there in a daze for? Run!" Liang Yue's shout brought him back to reality.

Ah!" Anna quickly retreated, her face was pale, she was very nervous, "Aiya –" The stones on the ground tripped her and she fell down, crying out in pain.

"Tsk …" When Liang Yue saw this scene, she felt that something was wrong. Her sword began to glow with a blue light. She used her strength to push back the axe, wanting to help Anna get up.

The sound of breaking air came again from the dark forest, and a hatchet flew from the darkness towards the place where Anna had fallen.

It was too late. Liang Yue's body rushed towards her direction.

"Bang …"

The axe chopped into the ground, causing the nearby rocks to shake. There was still a trace of blood on the axe blade.

Liang Yue held Anna and squatted on the ground. She reached out her hand to cover her shoulder as a string of numbers popped up above her head.

"-987"

Seeing that her HP fell by 1/8th of an eighth, Liang Yue's face paled. This strange monster's attack power was that high!

She shrank into Liang Yue's embrace. The attack just now had truly frightened her, especially the axe that was flying towards her. It gradually enlarged in front of her eyes, but she was powerless. She truly did not want to experience it a second time.

She opened her eyes and saw that she was still in Liang Yue's embrace. Her face was red, as if she was burning.

Liang Yue stared at the darkness not too far away, her eyes somewhat solemn. This strange injury was somewhat troublesome to deal …

Anna raised her head to look at the man who was hugging her, he was still covering his face like before, his eyes were alert as he looked at the forest. One of his hands was still covering his shoulder, and blood was flowing out from between his fingers.

Anna's face instantly turned pale. She knew that he had been injured in order to save her.

"You … Are you alright …? " The girl in his arms asked worriedly as she looked at his shoulder. He didn't know when she had raised her head.

"It's good that you're fine …" When Liang Yue saw that she had the time to care for others, he relaxed. It seemed that she was fine …

"Ah …!" Liang Yue carried her and stood up, causing the girl in his embrace to cry out. It was clear that this was the first time someone had hugged her like this.

"Don't yell …" Liang Yue whispered into her ear. The usually noisy girl had actually instantly quietened down.

"That's more like it." After putting the girl down, Liang Yue formally walked out from the darkness.

Its red eyes shone in the dark forest. Its gray skin, huge axes, and even larger than a human being's body, long fangs, and horns on the top of its head indicated its identity as a monster.

Two?

Liang Yue's expression was somewhat serious. The monsters this time couldn't be compared to those previous fish.

"Ox-Head Vanguard LV10"

"There are a few higher level Tauren. As the vanguard chosen by the Tauren King himself, they are active in the Forest of Grains. They are different from the ordinary yellow and red Tauren. They have extremely high attack power."

"Attack Power: 632"

"HP: 12000"

"Note: Skill: Charge, use your own horn to attack the enemy in front of you. A tremendous force will push you to the edge, as if you were hit by a car with a bayonet, dealing 300% damage."

"Flying Axe: Throw your own small axe at the enemy. The axe will cause 200% damage when the target is hit by the axe."

"Chop vertically. Hit your strength into your hands and swing your axe forward, dealing 300% damage to the area."

"

Liang Yue smacked her lips. These two Ox-Head Paragons were obviously not monsters from the Dark Forest, but monsters patrolling the Grassland Forest under the orders of the Ox-Head King. From the looks of it, they were quite lucky to have encountered such random monsters.

Although the monster didn't have much HP, its attack power was quite high. Judging from the attack just now, its agility attribute should be quite high as well.

Anna hid behind Liang Yue, holding onto Liang Yue's cape, her expression was not too good; she had never seen this kind of expression from him before.

When he had encountered all the monsters before, he had looked at them nonchalantly. However, these two monsters had made him a bit more serious.

She recognized these two monsters. The Monster department in the academy had mentioned that the Ox-head vanguard was under the orders of the Ox-head King in the Forest of Grains to patrol the monsters in the entire Forest of Graycastle. It had extremely high Attack and HP, which was a nightmare for those newbie adventurers.

If the adventurers who were on the outskirts met it, they might not even have the chance to run away. Because of their fast speed and the sharp sense of smell of the monsters, the adventurers had nowhere to hide.

"Can you still cast magic?" Liang Yue asked Anna who was behind him.

Since he had a mage on his side, things would be much easier. Although he could deal with it alone, it was inevitable that he would be beaten up again. After all, even if being beaten up could heal his wounds, it would still hurt.

Anna didn't say anything, but Liang Yue turned to look at her. She didn't know why her head was still lowered, but her body was still trembling.

"As expected, it's still very difficult huh …"

When she saw the monster in the academy's book, this monster had caused her to fall into a panic. She felt that the two of them alone wouldn't be able to defeat these two monsters, but his words made her feel very uncomfortable.

"Go hide over there. I'll come find you after I'm done." Facing this young girl who had fallen into panic, Liang Yue could only console her and let her hide there first. Otherwise, it would be very dangerous in the battlefield.

"No …" The girl forcefully shook her head to stop her body from trembling. She raised her head to look at Liang Yue and loudly said, "I can do it!"

"Is that so?" Liang Yue replied, "Roar …!" From afar, an ox head vanguard roared, brandishing its axe and charging forward.

Liang Yue turned around and bent down to hug Anna. One of her hands said that it was very easy to lift Anna's petite body up, "Hold me!" With some hesitation, she used her hands to hug his neck, making him seem somewhat stiff. Liang Yue drew her sword and threw it in the direction of the minotaur. The blue sword was like an arrow, flying towards it.

"Ding."

It swung its sword and sent it flying, stabbing into the ground some distance away. Liang Yue hugged Anna and jumped onto a tree.

"Wait a moment, use Ice Magic to reduce your speed. I'll go over and instantly kill them." Liang Yue took out the Divine Chasing Sword from her bosom. Since the sword had flown away, she might as well exchange it for this divine artifact.

Anna's gaze was somewhat strange, you have four small pockets in your bosom, you can hide things like that.

"Ah?" You're alone? " Anna cried out in alarm, she was a little worried, after all, the two ox-headed vanguards were not so easy to deal with.

"As long as you can freeze, I'm confident …" Liang Yue didn't want to use a skill. After all, hiding one's strength was still a necessary action. If she wanted to display strength similar to Anna's, she would need to be a bit stronger in the end.

As such, he did not plan on using Collapsing Mountain and Wave Break. As for the previous Triple Slash, it was just to scare that person.

"Are you ready?" Liang Yue looked at Anna, who was standing nearby, ready to cast her magic.

"Mm …" Feeling nervous, Anna grabbed her hands and nodded at Liang Yue.

The Ox-Head Paragons in the distance saw them and rushed towards them with a roar. They wanted to smash the trees to pieces.

Liang Yue directly rushed under the tree and brandished the sword in her hand. As a divine artifact, the Divine Chasing Sword was not meant to be overshadowed.

"Ding." Although his attack was blocked, a gap appeared on his giant axe. Liang Yue, who was squatting on the ground, stood up and turned his head to look at the two Ox-head vanguards as he let out a mocking laugh.

"Idiot …"

The high level Ox-head vanguard clearly understood its words, and its roar became louder. The two monsters charged at him, giving up on Anna who was on the tree.

Liang Yue held the Divine Chasing Sword and pointed it at the Ox-head vanguard that was charging towards her. This was the signal. A magic array had appeared behind the Ox-head vanguard.

The Frigid Snowmen emerged from behind them and jumped onto their bodies.

"Ka …" Crack … "Crack …" Ice congealed and cracked, and damage figures leapt up above the Ox-head Vanguard's head.

"-3096"

"-3045"

Ice Damage had slowed their speed and slowed them down, but now …

Liang Yue took a deep breath and exerted force with her feet. The earth jumped up from the ground as he charged forward.

The Divine Chasing Sword glowed with a blue light, and the precious stones on the sword shone with a red light. It was a very beautiful sight to behold.

He felt that the man below was the best man in the world, just like how he used to be when he was young and saw his father as his own king. But he was different, he was very humorous, he would make fun of her, he also knew how to cook, he had many good points, but he had a weakness, he was very slow …

whoosh *

A red and blue sword glow flashed on the Ox-Head Pioneer's body. Liang Yue kept the sword back into the non-existent scabbard in the air. Because the scabbard from before couldn't insert itself into the sword, she still did this action as she was used to it.

The Ox-head vanguard didn't seem to see him and rushed past him.

"Pfft …!"

Blood spurted from their necks.

"Bang …"

They fell into the blood they had lost. Half of their necks had been cut open, revealing the muscles underneath.

"-9764"

"-9745"

Extremely fast swords slashed across their necks. The combination of divine tools and sword Qis cut off their necks like tofu. This was the peak of what Liang Yue could do right now, the peak of her sword speed.

"Killed Ox-Head Vanguard x2"

"EXP gained: 10,000 x 2"

"Attack speed increased by 4%, current attack speed by 37%"

"Experience: 27,400/40,000"

"Yay!" Anna added a cheer to the tree, but due to her unstable center of gravity, she fell down.

Anna opened her eyes and looked at him, "It's you again …"

"Be more careful next time!" When Liang Yue was about to put her down, Anna suddenly stretched out her hand to grab his mask, and tore it off.

"Hee hee …" This time, I can see your face! " The young girl laughed complacently as she looked at his face.

The two of them decided to just stand there …

This was the first time the two of them had truly met. The two of them had gotten to know each other …

"… …"

"… …"
