Chapter 32: A New Function Has Been Unlocked
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
The mountain wind whistled, bringing with it a slight whimper.
On the craggy and steep cliff, three figures were forced into a desperate situation.
The little girl was in a deep sleep with her eyes closed, completely unaware of the crisis in the outside world.
Xue Qiaoqiao’s fair, oval-shaped face was filled with unprecedented nervousness.
Su Mo, who was standing at the side, smiled and asked, “Sister Qiaoqiao, do you think we can be saved if we jump down?”
“I’m just a light mage, not a celestial. If we fall to our deaths, what the hell am I going to save us with?”
“Do you think there will be a huge tree growing in the middle of the cliff that just so happens to be there and allows the three of us to jump down and hang on from it without any problems?”
“You might as well fantasize about landing on the back of a huge eagle and flying away.”
“But in theory, the weight of the three of us suddenly landing on the body of a huge eagle would probably be unbearable.”
“Well, won’t the tree on the cliff be broken?”
“With my strong right arm, I might be able to grab a root before we fall.”
“Compared to your arm, I’d rather believe that there’s a big lake below. If we fall into the water, we might be able to survive due to the water’s buffer.”
“My stupid sister Qiaoqiao, I have to teach you some science. To be honest, at this height, there’s no difference between falling into the water or on flat ground.”
“Why don’t you just go and die?”
Seeing Xue Qiaoqiao go crazy, Su Mo laughed, and said, “Isn’t this right? Sister Qiaoqiao, it doesn’t suit you to keep a straight face. If you have too many wrinkles on your face, it will be very difficult for you to get married in the future.”
As he spoke, Su Mo walked forward, slowly raising the sword in his hand.
He faced the encirclement of seven level 2 fox demons without any hesitation. All that was left for Xue Qiaoqiao was a solid back.
Xue Qiaoqiao looked at his back and burst into laughter. She carefully placed the little girl on the ground. Then, she stretched her back and glanced at the silver chain on her hand as she muttered to herself, “It seems like I have no choice but to use my full strength today.”
At the same time, Su Mo was already engaged in battle with the fox demons.
The enemies were at level 2, uninjured, and were more than his party. No matter how one thought about it, this was a dead end.
However, Su Mo’s mind was surprisingly calm, and he did not feel any fear or panic.
Facing the fox demon not far away, he slashed down with his sword, “Sword energy slash!”
The sharp sword energy that had always been successful was dodged by the other party nimbly.
“So this is the reaction speed of a level 2 fox demon? Wow, just wow.”
With a slight thought, storm sword was suddenly executed. With that, the sword attacks were like rain, forcing back the other fox demons who were approaching.
“Finger sword!” Su Mo saw an opening and abruptly pointed at the fox demon with his left hand.
The fox demon immediately dodged to the side, but the sword light still pierced through its shoulder, and its body froze slightly.
“Instant sword!” Su Mo teleported closer and slashed down with his sword, sending the fox demon’s head flying.
However, he did not feel any joy in his heart, “Just killing this one has already revealed more than half of my trump cards. There are still six left, and each one will definitely be harder to kill than the last. If we delayed any longer, the pursuers behind would probably all catch up. Ha, what’s the point of thinking so much? Since it’s already a dead end, it’s my gain even if I drag one more with me to hell!”
At this moment, the wise heart made him feel the danger coming from the left. Su Mo did not even think and immediately used the instant sword, arriving before the enemy six meters to the right and slashing down.
The sword missed while a head-sized hole had been blasted where he had been standing.
“A secret weapon?!” Su Mo’s pupils could not help but slightly constrict.
The enemy’s power was overwhelming, to begin with, and now, their equipment was even better than this. Wow, this was just adding insult to injury.
At the same time, the fox demon opposite him suddenly opened its mouth and sprayed poisonous mist at him.
Even though Su Mo had quickly retreated, he still felt a little dizzy.
It seemed that the level 1 poison immunity was not able to completely nullify the intense poison.
Just as he was thinking about how to reverse the situation, rays of warm light suddenly fell on his body.
“Poison removal! Berserk power! Keen perception! Divine protection!”
…
Eight or nine buffs instantly fell on Su Mo’s body.
In that instant, he felt all the negative statuses disappear, and his entire body was filled with energy, his spirit was unprecedentedly high.
Damn it, never mind a bunch of level 2 fox demons, he could now even kill a level 9 dragon!
Su Mo instantly went berserk.
With all kinds of buffs stacked on him, he had become a humanoid harvester.
The various skills he used were much more powerful than before.
Some of the level 2 fox demons were killed on the spot before they could react.
Seeing that only two were left, but more fox demons were swarming over from the forest, Su Mo’s heart suddenly welled with militant pride.
His sword attacks were like rain as he entered the group of fox demons and began to kill them.
As he killed, one buff after another landed on him. This made his attacks even more bloodied and violent.
In the end, even trading injuries for lives had become a regular offensive method.
The fox demons still standing were all shocked when they saw the corpses on the ground.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the other party’s aura had always been at level 1 throughout the battle, they would’ve thought that they were fighting a level 3 Transcendent.
The buffs were a little too ridiculous!
At that moment, some of the fox demons who had regained their senses finally turned their attention to Xue Qiaoqiao.
The girl in the white dress who didn’t seem to have any offensive power was the main culprit of the heavy loss.
In an instant, many fox demons ignored Su Mo and went straight for Xue Qiaoqiao.
Even though Su Mo had done his best to stop them, quite a few still managed to break through his blockade and surrounded Xue Qiaoqiao, who was at the end of the cliff.
However, they had just arrived, and their raised claws had yet to fall when the few level 2 fox demons had their heads smashed into pieces by her.
Seeing this, Su Mo asked curiously, “Hey, aren’t you good at fighting?”
Xue Qiaoqiao couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him, “Even if I’m a healing-type light mage, I’m still at level 3. Just because I’m not good at fighting doesn’t mean I don’t have the ability to fight. However, fighting would consume my strength. For every demon I kill, you will lose a point of enhancement.”
“Alright, let the professionals handle the professional matters,” Su Mo did not say much and continued to clear out the fox demons.
Time continued to pass, and the rugged cliff was gradually covered with crisscrossing traces of battle.
Many places were covered in pungent pus.
The figure standing upright gradually began to be unable to hold on, and he was entirely stained with blood.
At the end of the cliff, the white-dressed girl’s lips were pale, and her body was slightly swaying.
She stretched out her trembling hands, but she couldn’t even cast a low-level healing skill.
The last fox demon was killed on the spot by Su Mo despite his injuries. However, not only did he not relax, but he looked at the fox demons who had just arrived from the distance.
Level 3 fox demons.
“Is this the end?” Su Mo looked at the broken enchanted sword in his hand and smiled bitterly.
This sword probably couldn’t even be repaired, huh? To think he wasted three million here, he was such a prodigal.
Su Mo sighed and looked at Xue Qiaoqiao, who was still as pretty and lovely as before.
Xue Qiaoqiao ran her fingers through her soft hair, which had been ruffled by the wind, and smiled, “What a pity, I’m about to die. I’ve never tasted a young body in my life. Well, based on your performance just now, I could let you take advantage of me a little.”
Su Mo crossed his arms, his face filled with wariness, “Don’t take advantage of me. I’m still a virgin.”
“Su Mo!” Xue Qiaoqiao gritted her teeth and said, “Do you think I’m not a virgin?”
“Then, then I’ll just make do with you.”
“Do you think they’ll give you the time to make do?”
“Well, we can’t say for sure,” Su Mo said as he looked at his stats.
There was a notification on the top left corner of the interface.
