Versatile Mage: Thunderstorm

Chapter 100 The First Harvest of Cooperation

Early the next morning, Huang Xingli, who had slept soundly all night, walked out of the tent yawning and stretching. She was awakened by the cool breeze blowing on her face. After waking up, Huang Xingli looked at the rising sun and realized something important.

"Did I not get up to keep watch yesterday?"

Huang Xingli's face turned pale when she thought of this.

"It's over, it's over. What should I do if the demon attacks me?"

However, Huang Xingli's anxiety did not last long. Her mood calmed down instantly. She looked with a pair of fiery eyes and a sly smile at two figures, one sitting and one standing, dozens of meters away. The two people with their backs to her seemed to be quietly appreciating the brilliant morning glow, ready to greet a new day at any time.

Huang Xingli tiptoed towards the two of them. When she was more than ten meters away from them, the two of them turned their heads one after the other, as if they had eyes on their backs. Huang Xingli could not help but stand still and let out a meaningless dry laugh.

"You two are up pretty early."

"Good morning, Xingli!"

"Senior Huang looks like she's had a good rest."

Li Yu smiled. The poisonous mist of the limestone forest anaconda does not cause harm to the human body. On the contrary, it has a strong anesthetic and sleep-inducing effect. Huang Xingli's sleep through the night was also expected by the two.

"That's true. I don't know what happened. I didn't even have a dream yesterday. I slept till now."

Although she felt a little embarrassed for forgetting to keep watch, Huang Xingli believed that the sleep she had yesterday completely replenished the energy she had lost over the past few days, and she could still hold on even for another five days.

"We are going to deal with that Earth Falcon today, right? I am in good condition now, so why don't we have breakfast and go over there? I will definitely let that beast have a taste of my fiery fist."

However, just after she finished speaking, Huang Xingli noticed that Ding Yumian and Li Yu had some subtle expressions, and said with a guilty conscience:

"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong?"

After several days of survival in the wild, Huang Xingli found her position in the team. She tried to get along as much as possible, just to avoid holding back her two big brothers. However, the reactions of Li Yu and Ding Yumian made her feel a little uneasy.

Li Yu and Ding Yumian looked at each other in silence, and finally it was the latter who spoke first.
"Xingli, the Earth Falcon has been dealt with."

"What? The Earth Falcon was taken care of? When did it happen? Which hunter team did it?"

Afterwards, Huang Xingli's gaze began to move along with the gestures of the two people, and finally stopped on a large bird corpse, her mouth gradually opening into an O shape.

"You two managed it?"

They both nodded in unison.

"Why didn't I hear anything?"

Huang Xingli felt a little aggrieved. She had finally come to the wild to experience the feeling of hunting monsters, but the first time she encountered a monster general, she missed the battle because she slept too soundly.

As for why I didn't hear anything...

The effect of the poisonous mist of the Limestone Anaconda is one aspect, and the other is that the Earth Falcon is given away too quickly.

At that time, the Earth Falcon's eyes were filled with the corpses of the limestone anacondas that had turned into corpses and were covered in blood. It didn't pay any attention to Ding Yumian and Li Yu who were standing by the campfire and swooped down directly. It couldn't be blamed on the two people for being unkind.

Ding Yumian immediately used a mental shock, instantly turning the Earth Falcon's head into a paste. It even forgot to adjust its wings and fell straight down like a crashed plane. Then, Li Yi quickly followed up, took out the demon-slaying tool, and chopped the Earth Falcon's head with a knife.

Poor Earth Falcon. With its advantage of flying, it was considered a little overlord in this area. It relied on its two wings to do whatever it wanted. But now it has fallen to the ground forever. From the time it appeared to the end of its life, the whole process took less than five seconds. It was even worse than the limestone anaconda that was chased by it and fled in panic.

In this way, the trio simply processed the body of the Earth Falcon. Ding Yumian and the other two girls used powder to cover the bloody smell after the beheading, while Li Yu took away the poison gland of the limestone forest anaconda. A terrifying tumor that looked the size of a human head was enough to sell for a high price of 200,000 or 300,000 yuan in the market. Afterwards, the processed limestone forest anaconda poison gland was handed over to the two girls for safekeeping. The latter once again witnessed Li Yu's amazing physique. It might be a bit exaggerated to say that he was strong enough to pull mountains and his spirit was unparalleled, but it was obviously not enough to say that he could lift a tripod.

Li Yu took out a strange rope that was more than ten meters long, and spent more than half an hour tying up the more than ten-meter-long earth falcon tightly. The original rope of more than ten meters was infinitely stretched and tightly stretched on the bird.

Finally, without even taking a breath, Li Yu lifted up the Earth Falcon with one hand and led the way at a brisk pace.

"Yu Mian, could it be that Junior Brother is a demon in disguise?"

"oops!"

Huang Xingli was helpless after being hit by Ding Yumian's head.
"You, you, since when can demons transform and use magic? I told you to read less fantasy novels, but you didn't listen."

"But have you ever seen someone like Xiaoxuedi? His strength is no less than that of a demon, right?"

"You don't even think about it in advance. There's such a big difference in your physical fitness. What are you two going to do in the future? Don't break your waist by accident."

Ding Yumian didn't hear the latter part clearly, so she asked again, but Huang Xingli brushed it off, without asking any more questions. She just explained for Li Yu:
"There are many things in the world. It's no big deal that my junior is just a little stronger. It's much more reasonable than those unreasonable natural talents."

"Don't you have a natural talent too?"

“That’s why I have the confidence to say this.”

Afterwards, Ding Yumian gave another instruction.
"This matter is only known to the two of us, so don't spread it around."

"How can this be possible!"

Huang Xingli had a determined look on her face. Are you kidding me? Could she be the kind of person who would betray her friends?
Just as Li Yu had planned, the three of them took a shortcut and arrived at a demon market in Anjie in just one day. The bustling flow of people and the sounds of bargaining everywhere added a lot of popularity to this market.

Of course, the popularity instantly died down after seeing the body of the Earth Falcon being transported in by a cart.

"That...that's the Earth Falcon!"

As a major scourge on this land, the Earth Falcon was obviously well-known and was recognized as soon as it appeared. Then everyone looked at the three masters who killed the Earth Falcon with awe.

The owner of the mall was a shrewd and capable middle-aged man, who seemed to be a wizard. He was also very interested in the large order from the War General Demon. After a heated debate, the corpse of the Earth Falcon was purchased by the other party for five million. At the same time, Li Yu also dealt with the venom gland of the Limestone Forest Anaconda.

"Oh my god, is it so easy for hunters to make money?"

Huang Xingli sighed when she saw the more than five million yuan coming into the account.

This time, before Li Yu could explain, Ding Yumian explained helplessly,

"It was purely by chance that we were able to deal with the Earth Falcon this time. If we had let it fly, it would have been a dimensionality reduction attack on most mid-level mage teams, and it would have been extremely difficult to deal with it. If we were unlucky, we would not only waste our lives and money, but we might even return empty-handed."

"Of course I know that."

Huang Xingli nodded. She was just talking nonsense.
"No wonder they say that if magicians want to grow quickly, they have to fight monsters. Fighting can improve practical experience and control of magic. If you win, you can also exchange the monster's corpse for resources for cultivation. It's no wonder that some of our seniors in the academy have been hunters in the wild all year round."

"Senior Huang's talent is not bad. The difference between her and those seniors is just time."

Li Yu smiled and flattered Huang Xingli, who also sounded very happy.
"Then I would like to thank you for your kind words, junior brother."
