There are many unique pumice rocks in the Western Continent in the Tantaloa Grand Canyon. These lands floating in the air combined with the water vapor brought by the World Tree create a spectacular scenery and ecological environment here, and are also the home of the Delaney people. However, the pumice rocks are not close to the World Tree, and there is a vacuum area of ​​pumice rocks around the giant tree. The World Tree stretches here with thin branches that should not have appeared for ordinary trees - scholars have always suspected that the World Tree gathers water vapor for the high altitude of the entire canyon through these branches - it is the final venue of this year's second-year Rez Cup.

Although there is no pumice nearby, the roots of the World Tree are not far away. The canyon ground, which is almost grass-fed along the way, is also full of various plants. If there is a plant, there will naturally be water sources and animals, and it is not as good as the pumice rock above. These precious resources are all over the ground, so there is no need to run far past the single-plank bridge to collect special pumice.

The most growing plant here is a plant that resembles willow trees. Its leaves are very romantic pink cylinders and are also very delicious.

The premise is not to let Alicia take them to cook.

After saving the remaining five contestants and explaining the situation to them, Alicia led the team to leave the pumice and drill into the pink willow forest in the morning of the 13th day of the competition. Draenei and the orcs' search troops all retreated to the world tree yesterday evening to start defense, which seemed to give up looking for a needle in a haystack and instead play waiting for the rabbit.

Indeed, Alicia and the others would definitely hit the head with unswervingly; but that "plant" is too big...

After walking quietly in the sea of ​​trees for a morning, everyone finally looked forward to the long-awaited lunch break.

William walked to Alicia, who was leaning against the willow tree, and she was lying down without any image, and sweated speechlessly: "Alicia, that posture is very indecent."

"Ha? You're not attending a large-scale official event. Why do you have to keep your nerves tight every day like Sophia, tiptoeing, lifting your head and waist up, and you're fine to learn from the swan? Are you tired?" The little loli casually bit the fresh fruit that she picked yesterday and said vaguely. By the way, she reached out to pat the ground beside her and signaled to sit down, "It seems that you have something to do in your heart?"

"It's a little bit." William sat down and said while untiing his cloth bag, "Realistically speaking, if some teams are strong enough and fast enough, they may arrive at the finals of the World Tree today. The people of the Mage Association should be there to prepare for the greeting. Is it really okay for the Curse Sect to openly drive the Orcs into the canyon? If they are discovered, they will be immediately suspicious. And even if the monsters show their power to control them, what should they do if they broadcast to the outside world? The other party does not have the image of us climbing onto the World Tree. They cannot process and forge them."

The little loli glanced at William's lunch: "Is it a sandwich made of wild vegetables, leaves, etc. mixed in the middle of dry bread? That thing is not enough. I guess everyone else is the same... Well, it doesn't matter. I'll get some wild game when I'm on the way in the afternoon, and we'll have barbecue tonight."

"Wait a minute! This place is already very close to the enemy. If you light the fire at night, wouldn't you reveal your own target??"

"You just let go of your stomach and eat at that time." Alicia said, turning her head and looking straight, "I'm talking about food first. It's not about myself."

Knock on the head.

After touching the bag that did not exist on the head with tears in his face, Alicea said seriously: "About Brother William, I actually considered the question you just now. The answer I came up with was very bad."

"Are they confident that they would unseal the seal before they could get it out?" William asked anxiously, "This is unlikely. The monster has been controlling the area through Mona for a lot of days. The expression on Mindal's face when he came to us more than ten days ago did not look very urgent. Did the other party suddenly make some progress?"

"On the contrary, Brother William." The little loli shook his head and said, "The other party's purpose is not to seize the time to untie the seal, but to get rid of me and Ilia. The monster probably has no idea of ​​me, so her target must be Ilia. But the Curse Sect is definitely very clear about how much power I have in my hands. They drove the orc troops into the canyon and act like they were guarding the death, just to make me feel that the seal was about to be destroyed, and then hurried over and flee into the trap without thinking. Since Fran's Circle Jiu is here, you don't need to think about it and know that this plan is 100% from Raisel's head. And it is very likely that she did not explain it to the monster at all. It was implemented directly without thinking."

William was shocked: "Hey. Do you think you know that the other party's plan should pass without any preparation? Since time is not urgent, why not contact the outside world first to send reinforcements?"

"Because this is also an opportunity for us. Now that most of the seals are still intact, the strength of the monster must be greatly limited. To put it bluntly, she is a ghost who can do nothing but possession; and Delaney's attack is invalid for Ilia, a descendant of the God of War; as for the Curse Sect, we both have always been acquainted. Raisel probably can even guess what color I wear today's fatness. By the way, do you want to see?" Alisia showed her little tiger teeth and smiled and pinched the edge of her skirt and raised it up slightly. The delicate skin of the white jade color made the boy next to her dizzy.

William, who waved his head hard, made another knife without hesitation: "Talk about the serious matter."

"Tsk. It turns out that Ilia's reaction is more fun." The little loli muttered softly and helped Daimao up and continued, "Anyway, the other party plans to eat us. I also plan to eat them. Both sides are in such a situation where they are ready to eat each other. Although our number is a little less, don't forget that I have two level 5 mounts and Shanajiang to summon; and according to the speed, Sister Xiaoan should be coming soon, and her advantage is still here. If you contact the outside world to ask for reinforcements, it will take time to say that, and you may be attacked by orcs when entering the prairie."

William smiled slightly when he heard this: "Anyway, as long as you know it. Don't worry, no matter what the situation is, even if the monster really breaks free from the seal in the end, I will always be with you."

"No, if you really want that, it's better to go back to your hometown and grab a girl from the street and get married. You know, that's a bento flag just now!"

——————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

Night has come.

When camping in the evening, Alicia asked everyone to hunt some wild animals and came back to improve their food. However, even if these young men and girls were in a long period of development, they could not be as powerful as Beyer at the top of the food chain, so how to make a fire under the enemy's noses became the most critical issue.

As for the curious and assassination cooking that will be cooked later, let’s consider it later.

Alicia first gathered the team to explain her plan to everyone, and then waved her little hand hard in the expressions of everyone's admiration, contempt, pain or tribulation, and officially launched a barbecue battle.

On the tiny branches of the World Tree near the ground, Raisel was leisurely savoring red wine on the wooden chair next to the tent built by leaves.

To be said to be tiny branches, it is equal to the ratio of ants to thick branches for humans. Even the Pireya air warships mentioned in the report can be parked side by side according to Raisel's vision - if there are so many under Alicea's command, what's even more amazing is that there are many other plants and birds living on the World Tree, and even flying monsters; even so, the branches of the World Tree with so many tenants still seem very empty and not crowded.

The leaves of the World Tree have a magical function. When it is applied with a certain amount of external force, it will emit a soft and beautiful light green light, making the surroundings bright. This is also the reason why Raiseer chose to set up a tent next to the leaves.

There are many luminous plants near the roots and on the branches, which will emit colorful and charming light at night. In addition, with the huge leaves that are sometimes lit by naughty animals, the world tree shining under various colorful lusters in the dark from afar is like a beautiful scenery that only exists in fairy tales, which makes people deeply shocked and intoxicated.

"Cheers to the beautiful scenery that is about to disappear forever in front of you." Raisel raised his goblet slightly forward and shook it twice. He just poured the wine into his mouth before he could swallow it, and squirted it out in one mouthful.

In the distance is a vacuum area of ​​pumice. There are a kind of pink-leaf willow trees growing on the ground of the canyon. Although it looks very good during the day, they are not luminous plants. They even drove out most of the remaining plants after occupying the territory, resulting in the night being pitch black. However, although that kind of willow trees are domineering, they are not harmful to animals. Therefore, Delaney did not set it as a forbidden area, and at most they set up a sign that "lighting is required to enter the forest".

But now the forest suddenly shines - it is the light of a bonfire!

Is that girl Alysian despising us? Raisel didn't bother to wipe the wine stains on his chest and hurriedly stood up and shouted: "Come on. Send me a team of... No. Three teams of orcs into the willow forest to search! He actually dared to light a bonfire in front of us. If he ignores others, he must have a chance!"

But before he finished speaking, many fires lit up one after another in the woods, and from a distance they looked like stars in the sky.

Then the cold sweat on Raisel's forehead flowed like raindrops: "No, no, no, the order just now is invalid! Never send any troops into the woods. The blonde loli was attacking with fire after luring us in!"

Recalling the terrifying scene of the 10,000 low-level monsters that could sweep the small team a year ago, even the personal soldiers in charge of the command could not help but tremble all over, and hurriedly ran into the trunk of a tree that was comparable to the towering mountain peaks - there were hollow passages in the huge trunk. There were many teleportation arrays connected to the branches.

Such a meticulous and exquisite work obviously would not have been made by the big and thick god of war.

After the personal soldiers left, Raisel, who had calmed down a little, looked at the fire in the distance and gritted his teeth and said:

"I can't be fooled again in the face of the same strategy!" Alicia, who sat in front of the campfire, looked at the barbecue in Ilia's hand and was drooling at the boy's tail and wagged his tail, said so when Fabiano asked her why the other party would not attack. "I guess Raisele would probably say that. After all, the last time I burned ten thousand monsters would have some psychological shadow. In this dark environment, the fires spread everywhere, and the woods with flammable materials everywhere, no matter who it was, he would have some concerns about it, so the safest way is to keep your troops still."

Fabiano just showed an admiration when he heard this, and in the next second he was decisively struck by lightning nine days away.

The puppy who was acting coquettishly at the owner was so interesting that Eliya couldn't help but play tricks on her. She picked up a skewer of roasted browned meat skewers with a pleasant aroma and shiny greasy taste and handed it to the little loli's mouth to feed her, and then quickly whipped it back when she stretched out her head and opened her mouth to bite.

The little loli, who had chewed the air all over the mouth, immediately puffed up the bun's face and glared at Ilia angrily for a while. Suddenly, he rushed to the barbecue in the boy's hand again with lightning speed and no bites.

Looking at Alicia, who was staring at the skewers raised by Ilia, who kept jumping up and trying to bite her, Fabiano felt that she was messy in the wind.

It was not until William next to him that he coughed hard with dissatisfaction that Elia stuffed the skewers into Alicia's hands; and the little loli immediately gave up acting cute. She sat down honestly and started eating meat with a happy face.

And on the side...

"Uh, Miss, what are you doing when you stand in front of me with the barbecue?"

"Stop talking nonsense, sit on the ground quickly!"

"That. I've already sat on the ground and said..."

"The posture is not right for you, a fool! You must bend your legs and put your arms in the middle to look at the barbecue in my hand and stick out your tongue."

"I'm not that talented dog, hey-!!"

William smiled slightly and moved his eyes from the enemy and said, "Tomorrow we will arrive at the World Tree. This extra meal tonight and the tricks to play tricks on the other party can really help boost morale. But Alicia, do you have any plans for tomorrow's battle? I don't think you can still perform anything on the other party in this situation."

"Well, it's really gone." Alicia bit the barbecue and nodded vigorously, saying, "No matter how perfect the plan is, it requires enough strength to achieve and complete. When all the cards are put on the table, what remains is that both sides fight each other like warriors from ancient tribes, with only pure competition for strength. So tomorrow you don't need to consider anything, just kill them!"

"Did you have prepared some plans but don't plan to let me know?" William stared at the little loli with a suspicious face, "Or what if you want to have a good meal?"

"Ah, ah? Brother William, what are you talking about?" The little loli smiled coldly in the back of her head as usual, "The current situation is already like this, how can I have any other plans to pinch it?"

There are not many main combat powers to choose from here, so... did you choose Ilia? William sighed secretly and waved his hand and said, "Forget it. When I didn't ask. Alicea. No matter what the final result is, what I said at noon will always work. All that is to say is, I will take a walk around and lose my companion first."

[Sorry, Brother William. My plan cannot be known only, at least not yet.]

Alicia watched William disappear from the fire and shook her head helplessly. Just as she was about to continue taking a bite of the barbecue, a trace of alarm suddenly flashed in her heart. She was so shocked that she stood up.

"What's wrong, Alicia?" Ilia next to her said in confusion.

"I didn't notice such a big negligence! Sure enough, have I been too concerned about politics recently?" The little loli threw away the barbecue and grabbed her hair hard regardless of the oil stains on her hands. "The people of the Curse Sect are afraid of fire attacks, but that monster is not afraid! As long as she controls an intermediate-level monster to come in as cannon fodder to find out the truth, my trick will be broken immediately! No, the other party will definitely do this. Because the old monster who has lived for thousands of years knows that I will definitely not dare to set fire to the forest near the World Tree!"

Ilia stepped forward and pressed the little loli's shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Don't panic, calm down! Take a deep breath, and then tell us what everyone should do now?"

"Sorry, thank you Ilia." Alicia took a deep breath and said, "Fabiano, hurry up and call Brother William back. The others packed their luggage immediately, but don't clean up the garbage on the ground, and then hide it in the nearby woods. Ilia, if the monster controlled by the monster comes later, don't be polite, just turn and rush up and remove the other party from a big piece!"

Everyone quickly began to act as Alicia's instructions; after a while, Fabiano also brought William back and hid with everyone.

But after waiting for a long time, the bonfire was swaying in the breeze, but the monster never appeared.

[Am I too nervous? No, it should be...]

"Hey, I said. Why haven't you come yet? Could it be that Miss Harris made a mistake?"

"Shut up, common people, are you the right attitude to your life-savior?"

Alicia turned her face to the enemy and whispered: "I promise that anyone who appears near the campfire can immediately do a free high-altitude tour. The two-legged flying dragon in the sky will definitely welcome you very much." (To be continued...)
