CH 42

Qi Leren jumped into the water in a hurry. He didn’t even hold his breath. Although he didn’t stay underwater for a long time, he felt a strong sense of suffocation in the water pressure around him. A string of bubbles overflowed from his mouth, and his brain began to become chaotic. He looked at the fluorescent water grass in a daze. Everything was dreamy and empty, as if he was in a blurred dream.

Someone took him by the hand and led him upward, but he even lost his strength to swim in suffocation..

What a pain..

Qi Leren struggled in the agony of suffocation and drowning. The arm pulled convulsed several times. The person in front of him finally realized that something was wrong, but Qi Leren was almost unconscious.

His eyes could still see what was happening, but his brain was no longer able to analyze. He stared at her turning around, her black hair spreading in the water, half covering her face. It was very close and beautiful

Hearing began to slow down, he felt as if he was floating in a sea of stars. The cold light of stars came into his eyes through the silent universe. Every light he saw was the remnant of stars hundreds of millions of years ago. In this silent and great time and space, everything was quiet and slow, making people calm down or even forget the fear of death.

She took him by the waist, held his back head with one hand, and kissed him on the lips.

Fresh oxygen poured into his mouth. He couldn’t help breathing in the air greedily, even bit her lips when the temperature left.

The water surface was getting closer and closer. Finally, they rushed out of the water and swam to the shore. Goldess had amazing physical strength. After such a toss, she easily supported the ground with hands and landed on the bank. Qi Leren lay on the bank and gasped. He looked at goldess with more admiration

Goldess glanced down at him. Her eyes paused for a second on his chest, and held out her hands.

Qi Leren took a long breath as he clambered onto the bank, clutching goddess’s hand.

Wait, did he just kiss with goddess? Qi Leren suddenly recalled what happened under the water, which was unbelievable for a while. Or was it just an illusion of suffocation?

Qi Leren glanced at goldess’s lips secretly. The light around was too dark. The brightness brought by the fluorescent moss was not enough for him to see clearly. He was so anxious that he wanted to thank her several times, but didn’t know how to start.

If it weren’t for goldess, he would be in a real dangerous situation. Even if he succeeded in killing Anna with S/L Skill, Anna’s terrifying call of skeleton dragon before death was powerful enough to kill him tens of times. This kind of creature couldn’t be fooled with rations. If being crushed under a stone, he would be in a dead situation that couldn’t be saved no matter how many times he reloaded.

Fortunately, goddess rushed into the cave and jumped down into the underground lake without hesitation. She came in an hour earlier than him. She should have found out the terrain inside. But this kind of resolute death-will was not seen in ordinary people.

It seemed that the goddess was a lady with many stories, Qi Leren thought.

The temperature under the ground was lower than that on the ground. In addition, it’s already late at night. Qi Leren, who just came out of the water, was shivering because of a cold wind. He didn’t know where his coat had been gone in the water before. He tried to warm himself by shaking his arms, and was immediately wrapped in a coat by goddess.

——How much do you like this kind of men’s coat? It’s the same style!

Qi Leren cried in her heart… but put it on immediately.

It’s really much warmer.

But goddess was really shy. She hadn’t looked at his face since just now. She was a person that would be shy even when looking at a girl…So lovely.

Qi Leren happily planned how to take this opportunity to get along with goldess and cultivate feelings. Many hero and heroine in novels and TV series had love sparks exactly in such dangerous environments. Definitely, he could do it with his goddess!

A strange cry came from the top. A big black bird flew down and stopped on goldess’s outstretched arm. It rubbed the goddess’s face intimately.

——Go away, you funny stupid bird! Goddess is mine!

Qi Leren glared at the big black bird, but it ignored him at all. It whispered to goddess, “A large group coming, bones, cracking and clicking.”

Goldess frowned. She nodded and signaled Qi Leren to follow up. They went deeper into the cave.

The cave had labyrinth and maze like passages. Though Qi Leren was good at memorizing maps, he was also confused. Finally they came to a place where the fluorescent moss was bright. He hurried forward to look at goddess’s lips – it was really bitten.

His heart beat faster. It was not his illusion. He did kiss goddess underwater?!

No, no more thinking. It was just artificial respiration.

But he really cared much about it..

Qi Leren was almost suffocated. He tried to talk with goddess for several times, but goddess always looked serious. She was too cold to get close. Even so, that gorgeous side face was attractive enough for him.

I have to find a way to talk to goddess. Qi Leren cheered himself up in his heart. Just as he was about to open his mouth, goddess stopped and made a silent gesture to him.

Qi Leren held his breath and listened to the movement around him.

Click, click, click… There was a low and odd sound of footsteps, accompanied by the hitting sound of components. Qi Leren quickly pictured a walking skeleton in his brain, walking towards them.

Sure enough, a blue light lit up in the front passage. Soon, a skeleton soldier with a rusty weapon appeared at the corner. It found the existence of the two people and walked toward them quickly!

Five meters, four meters, three meters… The terrifying skeleton soldier was getting closer and closer. Qi Leren was so nervous that her heart was almost convulsed. Swish! The two swords of goddess came out of the scabbard, the black bird flew away from her shoulder, and she rushed up like an arrow.

How fast! Almost in the blink of time, she rushed to the front of the skeleton soldier and brushed two knives. She cut off the bone of his hand holding the weapon with one knife and chopped off his head cleanly with another. The skull with the fire of the soul fell to the ground, then it was crushed by her foot. The flame went out in the passage, bringing darkness back. The whole process only lasted for three or four seconds and was incredibly fast.

Qi Leren swallowed his saliva, and couldn’t help applauding goddess. Goddess looked back at him. The black bird fell back on her shoulder, and said with menace, “Keep it down! Are you looking for death? “

Qi Leren quickly stopped and gave a resentful look at the black bird. He had fallen to depend on a lady and be taught how to behave by a big black bird… Miserable, it’s really miserable.

Qi Leren swallowed all the prepared words back after such an interruption, so he had to be a junior attendant of goddess silently, trying to wait for the opportunity.

Now his foreboding skill had entered a 24-hour cooldown, which couldn’t be used for the time being. Qi Leren could only follow goddess.

Deep in the cave, the terrain was very complex. Unfortunately, there were more and more skeleton soldiers and many skeleton beasts. They two failed to avoid them even they detoured several times. But fortunately, goddess was a powerful fighter. When she saw the skeletons galloping up, she would crack the skeletons and them down.

Qi Leren quietly praised the spirit of “don’t be frightened, just do it”. It was simple and rude, and he liked it.

“It’s not scientific… Is there no call time for skeleton dragon? There are more and more skeletons if it doesn’t die.” Qi Leren muttered.

As he spoke, another group of skeletons appeared in front. Goldess took a meaningful look at him, raised her knives and went up. She cleared up the skeletons like cutting melons and vegetables, and then came back.

Because of the inconvenience of frequent takeoff and landing, the big black bird simply chose Qi Leren’s shoulder as the landing place. It pecked at his head and said, “Shut up. No talk! You crow beak! “

He was mocked by a black bird! Qi Leren was about to refute this kind of stigma when, suddenly, the front was enlightened——

In the huge underground cavity, a towering and terrifying skeleton dragon was falling from the top. Seeing the two people, it raised the head with the soul flame and sent out a terrifying dragon cry.

At this moment, Qi Leren sincerely regretted for the first time: I will never speak randomly any more…
