Reborn as a short-lived loli who can only live for three years

At this moment, they were indeed very comfortable compared to the other two wind magicians in battle.

With the joint efforts of the two, the empty shell of the statue successfully came to life.

It held up its heavy body, and the rust on its armor miraculously faded away.

Under Ivy's will, the Heartless Statue picked up an intact sword on the ground and resolutely joined the battle.

Tokieda Meng, who was fighting the big statue, also noticed this unexpected helper. She immediately realized that it was Ivy who did it, and her eyes flashed with surprise.

……

With the addition of the Wuxin statue, the large statue, which originally had a slight advantage, gradually couldn't hold up.

The two swords clashed, their sharp edges were overflowing, the cold mechanical body made an inorganic collision sound, the helmet turned, the armor joints rusted, and the gears in the mechanism inside the body turned.

Inorganic, lifeless, even the sound is lifeless.

The cold wind continued to blow.

"Ping—"

The sword flew out of his hand and spun in the air.

The next moment, a rusty iron sword pierced the chest of the statue.

Broken gears fell from the shattered mechanical heart. The huge statue stood stiffly on the ground, its inorganic vitality gradually fading away.

"Did we win?" Tokieda Meng landed from the air, rushed to the huge statue in a few steps, and stared at the complex gear mechanism in the broken chest.

At this moment, the arm of the big statue moved slightly.

"Senior Shi, be careful!"

"Ouch."

Shizhi Meng easily dodged the suddenly raised arm, but unexpectedly, the mechanical heart she was carrying was knocked away.

The target of the big statue has always been that thing.

The mechanical heart rolled off the bridge and fell into the bottomless abyss.

"Ah——!" Tokie Meng let out a heart-wrenching wail.

"!"

Evie shuddered.

The heartless statue suddenly broke away from Ivvy's will. It jumped off the bridge without hesitation, chasing the mechanical heart, and fell without a trace.

Ye Jiyan held her shoulders.

The pain was like a severed nerve. Ivy covered her forehead and took some time to interrupt her fantasy creation.

It seems that there is still risk in borrowing the creations of the secret realm's will.

"Rest in peace," she murmured.

When Shi Zhimeng heard her words, he also walked to the edge of the covered bridge, looked into the dark abyss, and whispered a blessing.

"Rest in peace, useless people cursed by obsession, may you be free from time."

……

After defeating the tide of statues, the gates in front and behind finally slowly rose up, allowing them to continue forward.

"You performed very well just now, Yuru! I didn't expect you to be so proficient in wind magic. You helped me a lot!" Tokieda Meng happily ruffled Yuru's hair.

Yu Liu, who had just experienced a successful battle, also ignited his passionate fighting spirit and was equally happy.

"I'm honored to be able to help my senior."

"We can now become partners with tacit cooperation!"

The two people walking in front were chattering about the tense, thrilling and exciting moments in the battle just now. They really had a great time fighting.

The two people following behind were much silent, and their relationship seemed to be as stiff and unfamiliar as at the beginning.

……

The ore detector made a sound, and this time they dug up more Source Breaking Stones.

"These materials should be enough to strengthen the time-bomb stealth machine. I wonder how Wanye and the others harvested them. Anyway, the extra parts can be used to make fun equipment for ourselves!"

Shi Zhimeng was still full of interest.

The exploration of the secret realm has just begun!

"They stopped on the lower level," said Evie.

"Stop? How long did it stop?"

"It's been a while. I think it's been waiting for us." Ivy guessed.

Through a large-scale magic detection, she found that the three magic fluctuations she sensed were not weak. She should not have encountered any danger along the way, and everyone had plenty of magic power.

We should take a break now and wait for them to meet up.

"They were faster than us. Let me guess - they probably didn't take the opportunity to build good relationships!"

As he said this, Shi Zhi Meng sighed deeply: "Alas, this club will fall apart sooner or later without me! It's impossible to create a team spirit if the relationship is too distant!"

"Why do you guess so?" Yu Liu didn't understand.

Shizhi Meng acted like an expert: "That's because they are too fast! Although we can't rule out the possibility that they are very strong, if the relationship is not good, there will be no laughter and joy along the way, and we won't be able to discover the beautiful scenery along the way!"

"It takes time to laugh, chat, and enjoy the scenery! They reached the lower level so quickly, which means they didn't spend any time on these things!"

Although there is nothing wrong with spending time on important matters, Tokieda Yume's speculation is not without reason.

In fact it is.

Most of their relationships with each other were very strained. Although they had lived in the same orphanage, they had spent more time as rivals than friends.

Even if they are indeed companions at this moment, it cannot erase the fact that they have killed each other.

Ivy herself didn't want to be friends with Chu Yu for the time being, simply because Chu Yu had really used all her strength to kill her that day.

Thinking of this, she looked up at Ye Jiyan again.

"how?"

Ye Jiyan raised a faint smile, as if he had guessed what Ivy was thinking at this moment.

"Suspect me?"

"……No."

……

……

Their companions were waiting on the lower level, so they quickened their pace and soon found a mechanism pillar leading to the lower level next to a stand.

Inject magic and the platform goes down.

With a smooth sound of engagement, they reached the lower area.

"But... there doesn't seem to be any Pure Sea Stone in this area. Let's look for it somewhere else after we meet up."

Although according to the investigation data, there is indeed such material in the secret realm, it seems to be very rare.

After avoiding low-level traps and moving forward in the direction of magic perception, they finally met up.

"Great! We met successfully."

The other three looked no different from before, as if they had not experienced any difficult battles, but the atmosphere was very gloomy.

But the four of them were different. Not to mention their hair messed up by the strong wind, Tokieda Yume and Ikuru were exuding a refreshing feeling after the battle.

As expected, Wan Yexi asked curiously: "It seems that you have experienced something?"

"Haha, I saw something very interesting!"

Shi Zhimeng excitedly recounted what happened on the covered bridge.

Ying Youyou dragged her tired body to Ivy.

"Avi, I tried my best to survive today."

She breathed a sigh of relief and leaned on Ivy to recover her 'Ivy Energy'.

Evie couldn't understand her.

"Congratulations, but who is hunting you?"
