A Delicious and Flammable Backlands Tour

However, the sword qi passed directly through the body of the cultist without any gains.

"Master...isn't it common sense that the stage-changing boss is invincible?"

Xieyan floated aside and complained.At this stage, it can't help much.

"What kind of common sense is this! Is it still rare to have a boss killed by me when transforming?!"

At least, the eyeballs of Mr. Ke he killed could circle Chenghai City for a week!

Summer Solstice responded, throwing the Blade of Terra.While the Blade of Terra was spinning at a high speed, it continuously slashed emerald green sword energy towards the cultists.

The sword energy still can't do anything to the cultists, but the weapon body, the cultists have no way to evade it.

-386 (crit strike)!

Eventually, the Blade of Terra hit the cultist in the neck and bounced back into Xia Zhi's hand.

"It can cause damage... In other words, it has entered the next stage."

The cultist let out an eerie laugh in response.

It raised its hands above its head, and the space above began to twist.

A monster, almost identical in appearance to the Lunatic cultist, joined the battlefield.

[System prompt: The ritual has started.Seeing the new phantom, you feel a bit of chill...]

The above is the information that can only be seen during the summer solstice.

"What's the matter? This guy, I feel very wrong."

"Master, retreat quickly! Don't let it catch—"

Xieyan's voice stopped abruptly.

......

"Is this—a clone technique?"

Rebecca frowned.She has almost forgotten the information about the cultists.

"Are we going to fight two cultists at the same time?"

"Yes, this guy is not just a phantom."

Panda, who climbed up at some point, was standing aside with a serious face.

"The feeling of the bottle, this guy is even more dangerous than that...'body'."

"That's right. This guy seems to be able to imitate the main body's skills? Even stronger." Tuantuan added.

"Then, let me hold it."

The knuckle ornaments that Rebecca had just removed were equipped again.

If their skills and damage were calculated separately, then Xia Zhi might not be able to calm down.Forcibly pulling the hatred of two cultists might even risk their sudden death.

"Although I really want to agree to this proposal, but—what about Xia Zhi?"

Jiang Haifeng pointed to the air.

Just now, the newly appeared phantom disappeared together with the summer solstice.There was only one Moon Worshiper left, looking down at the crowd from the air.

"Yaoshou! The master is gone! He must have been caught by that phantom and sent to the impasse of reincarnation!" Tuantuan panicked.

It is still very difficult to challenge the Boss in difficult mode without the help of teammates.

"Don't worry. The monk can't run away from the temple if he can run away."

Panda crunched her fingers.He looked at the cultist in the sky.

"The main body is still here. Hammer him! Kill him, maybe Master Xia will be released!"

"Yes! I will work hard to output."

Tuantuan clenched his fists and looked at Rebecca at the side.

"Eldest sister, you can go up and talk."

Rebecca rolled her eyes, spread out her frozen wings, and rushed towards the cultist.

......

The territory of reincarnation (fog).

"What the hell? Where am I?"

Xia Zhi shook his head.

He was only briefly dizzy, and when he came back to his senses, he found that he was floating in an unknown space.

There seems to be a starry sky somewhere around, and four kinds of star clusters are distributed.

"Master. Look at the above... Please be mentally prepared."

Xieyan did not stay away from the summer solstice this time.It hugged Xia Zhi tightly from behind, with its head shrunk behind Xia Zhi's back, and one finger pointing upwards.

Xia Zhi took a deep breath.In such an unknown situation, it is better to listen to Xieyan's advice.

He looked up.

A huge phantom was staring down at him.

It only has the upper body in human cognition, and the remaining bare part is a structure similar to bones.

The phantom's head is covered with cyan tentacles and has five eyes.Surrounded by four monocular eyes, one vertical pupil is changing with the position of the summer solstice.

"Ly... Groove..."

[You confronted the Moon Lord.Making a Will save... You are immune to the effects of Coercion because you have the same skill. 】

"I didn't lose the SAN, luckily..."

Xia Zhi covered his mouth and nose.

"That's... so explicit. I almost got a nosebleed—can you believe that?"

"Master, don't play tricks at this time."

Xieyan breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time was somewhat dissatisfied.

"Don't be angry with this kind of thing!"

"—but wasn't that how you used to be? I thought you'd be happy."

Xia Zhi checked his situation while talking.The flying ability is OK, and the Terra Blade is also good.

The other party is obviously a bad comer, so I have to find a way to let it leave something—for example, the end prism is very good.

"Woo! It's different! We just represent the 'knowledge' part, without that (barbaric) body."

Seeing the reactions of Xia Zhi and Xieyan, the huge phantom, or rather - Moon Lord, made a sound.

Through its own spirit, Xia Zhi can roughly understand its meaning.

"I've been observing you for a long time...'human'. You are really interesting, much more interesting than those 'bugs'. Are you interested in becoming my family?"

"Let's talk about other things first. I have to know, how do you observe me?"

Xia Zhi was in no hurry to refuse.

The Moon Lord sneered.

"Didn't it tell you? That little guy behind you—"

"...Stop talking any more." Xieyan said.

"It's the one you call the evil eye—"

"Shut up!!" Xieyan's expression became ferocious.

"It and I are one in a sense. As long as it is still alive and stays near you, as a higher existence, I can know all the information nearby."

The Moon Lord communicated the reason to Summer Solstice almost instantly.

The evil eye has no time to stop it - or rather, it has no way to stop it.Moon Lord is much stronger than that.

"...Evil Eye, is this true?"

Xia Zhi turned to look at Xieyan, and found that it buried its head in his shoulder.

"I can't lie to my master...that's how it is."

Xieyan's tone was dejected.

"My ability has the same origin as that guy. As long as you use your ability, you will be noticed."

This is also the reason why bosses mostly make troubles around the summer solstice.They were all directly or indirectly sent by the Moon Lord.

"Master, knowing this kind of thing, do you still want to keep me?"

NO.552 Favorability UP

The evil eye's concerns are well-founded.

So far, Xia Zhi's action plans have been formulated based on the advantage of already knowing the other party's information.The smoother the journey, the more you will realize the importance of intelligence.Can Xia Zhi, who has tasted the sweetness, accept the next battle that is almost a "bright card"?

Thinking that the Moon Lord can obtain almost all the information on the summer solstice, Xieyan is very worried.It even wants to cut off the possibility of the summer solstice being spied on in a self-destructive way—if it can.

Just when Xieyan's eyes were about to lose focus, a palm skillfully and lightly fell on its dull fur.

"Woo! It hurts—"

What are you thinking about? "

Xia Zhi reluctantly hugged Xieyan in front of him, and patted its head.

"You should also be conscious of your loyalty. So far, you haven't subjectively framed me, have you? I won't let go of the right-hand man I finally got. After all, I'm very greedy. The privilege and the price always want to accept the former."

"Hey, so the master means..."

Tears of joy flowed from the eye exposed by the evil eye.

"The guys out there can't see it anyway—then I'll be frank."

Xia Zhi's expression turned serious, and he looked at Xieyan seriously.

"I am willing to take the risk of being spied on by the evil god and keep you. You are worthy of me. This is not because of loyalty and ability, but because of the friendship and bond between us."

"My generation, I will definitely not leave the master."

Xieyan showed a smile - without the teasing meaning of daily evil eyes, without the contempt for the enemy in battle, and without the sadism when dealing with the defeated.This was the first time Xia Zhi saw such a pure smile on her face.

[System prompt: Xieyan's intimacy breakthrough.Phase rewards: Anthropomorphism and some abilities no longer cost mana. 】

"Incomprehensible. Even the remnants of me should not be touched by human emotion..."

On the side, the Moon Lord, who was waiting for a gap in the relationship between the master and servant, shook his head.

In the past, it spied on Xia Zhi through the pictures sent back by his subordinates before they died, and he always showed a side close to the ruler-tyrannical, indifferent, and full of greed.This kind of person is needed to be the vanguard of the invasion of various worlds.

And now...

He actually could bear the time bomb by his side because of emotion, instead of getting rid of it immediately.

Unqualified.

As for Xieyan, it no longer has the heart to be a monster, so let's not mention it.

"My evaluation of you will be lowered, human being."

"Oh. Sorry, I forgot you were still here, brother Cabo."

"...one last offer. Join us, or—perish with this world."

"You actually think I'll agree?"

Solstice is weird about the way the Moon Lord thinks.I scolded you already, brother, don't you have the temper to be a boss? !

"There's nothing wrong with it. If you agree at the last moment, I can still give you a high courtesy. Your ability is worthy of me."

"..."

Xia Zhi was silent for a while, hugged Xieyan, and made her turn to look at the Moon Lord.

Xieyan was a little scared, but Xia Zhi held her hand.
