After the girl made her request, Wang Xiaole was stunned for a moment.
Immediately, he raised his hand and placed it on the girl's shoulder, his face becoming serious.
"Isabella, if a hero cannot solve all the troubles alone, cannot bear the weight of the world alone, what right do they have to call themselves a 'hero'?"
"If you aren't going to help at all, then what right do you have to be my partner!"
"Huh? Is that so?"
Wang Xiaole's face immediately became innocent, and he raised his right hand and tapped his forehead, looking cute and with the potential to become an idol.
But he couldn't help, and if even the god who created the world became an ally of the hero, was there still a need for battles?
"You demon king!"
A group of slimes formed a team and pounced forward in an orderly manner.
At this moment, Isabella was rapidly organizing her basic knowledge of slimes in her mind:
These low-level slimes almost have no intelligence and act purely on instinct;
They usually feed on aquatic plants, plankton, or small fish and birds and usually don't see humans as targets;
Unless they are being controlled by someone, it's difficult for them to see a person as prey!
And every time it gets to this point, the slime group shows its tenacity, swarming in groups until the entire team is wiped out.
Over a hundred slimes surrounded their target, moving forward at a slow and steady pace, their blue translucent bodies wriggling;
Isabella immediately retreated.
In regular terrain, it wouldn't be difficult for her to fight, but she was currently standing at the edge of an endless swamp. Any slight distraction and she would sink deep into it;
Although the slimes weren't fast, they were unaffected by the swamp and the terrain even favored their movement.
As she saw the slimes getting closer, Isabella immediately thought of a solution: to release her powerful lightning spell;
Indeed, this would take care of many slimes, but in this world, there were special rules, as stated by Wang Xiaole:
"Xiao Yisa, listen! Your level is already high enough to release powerful thunder magic, but before using it, you need to endure the 'skill cooldown time'...
Think of cooldown as chanting. Endure for five minutes, and when the time is up, you can obliterate those bastards to nothing!"
Being shouted at by the person who brought these bastards, Isabella imagined:
If she were to take the village chief hostage, maybe the monsters would surrender!
As soon as Wang Xiaole finished speaking, a slime immediately pounced towards her;
Isabella swung her staff forcefully and split the slime in two, but the two halves quickly reconnected.
Normal physical attacks were useless.
Even if she completely destroyed the slime's body like before, with enemies coming from all directions, she couldn't counterattack leisurely.
Isabella heeded Wang Xiaole's advice and understood that before she could beat the enemy, she needed to delay for a moment.
Several slimes simultaneously split open, and acidic liquid sprayed out from inside;
The target, which was being agilely avoided by the acid attacks, created several large holes on the ground in an instant.
Every time was the same, as Isabella leaped a few times, several slimes were split in half with her staff;
But such rushed attacks hardly caused any damage to the slimes. Instead, more and more acid sprayed from various directions.
The corrosive power of this liquid was extremely powerful and could easily destroy metal. But when it splashed onto the slimes themselves, it couldn't harm them in the slightest.
Just like the relationship between pufferfish and toxins, in this world, there was no pufferfish that would die from its own poison.
Furthermore, what was quite troublesome was that Isabella's multiple attacks quickly made the other slimes feel threatened;
Driven by instinct, they decided to launch a final furious attack to quickly topple this threat in front of them!
A slime entangled her, and this time, Isabella didn't make another slashing move.Despite having a stick in her hands that was as sharp as a sword, she would not use it in that way.
The small, transparent blue objects in front of her were not meant to be chopped into pieces, but rather used as stepping stones!
