"Ding." A crisp metallic sound began to ripple around, and Zhuang Xiaoyuan, who was sure that she hadn't completely shattered the magic crystal pillar, didn't achieve her goal, and her attack was blocked.

"This is what the boss wants me to protect, and I have to protect it. However, if you actually break it, then I will break you too. A thick piece of ironwood blocked in front of the magic crystal pillar, just blocking Zhuang Xiaoyuan's backhand blow.

At one end of this piece of ironwood, Atuo, who had red eyes, tightly grasped the ironwood in his hand and glared at Zhuang Xiaoyuan with an angry face. After blocking Zhuang Xiaoyuan's backhand attack with the iron wood in his hand, he raised the iron wood in his hand with both hands and smashed it towards Zhuang Xiaoyuan's head.

"Phew, there's really only one chance, it's a pity. But even so, I'd like to try again. With a slight movement under his feet, Zhuang Xiaoyuan disappeared in front of Ah Tuo as if he had teleported, appearing on the other side of the magic crystal pillar, and the sword in his hand slashed at the last part of the magic crystal pillar again.

It's a pity that the best opportunity has been lost, and it was delayed by Atuo again, and at this time, the brave people around have all reflected it. At the same time as Zhuang Xiaoyuan attacked with a knife, their attacks also came from all directions, some attacked Zhuang Xiaoyuan's body, while others blocked the sword in her hand.

"Ahem. Tsk, it seems, that's all it takes. ”

In the face of attacks from the surroundings, the Taidao in Zhuang Xiaoyuan's hand turned flexibly, and swept over his body to block all the attacks, but as Zhuang Xiaoyuan blocked the attacks of the brave people around him, a thick smell of rust began to spread in Zhuang Xiaoyuan's mouth.

I couldn't help but cough lightly twice, and glanced at the magic crystal pillar that had not been completely cut off with some regret. Zhuang Xiaoyuan made a decision, and with a movement of his feet, he directly left the encirclement of the seven brave men, and quickly rushed into the forest.

"Hey, why did she run away? Could it be that the attack just now had a side effect? ”

Noticing Zhuang Xiaoyuan's departure, some of the brave people besieging her were slightly stunned, and then thought of a certain possibility of her leaving suddenly, her eyes flashed with a simmering light, and her eyes couldn't help but fix her eyes on the direction where Zhuang Xiaoyuan left.

And after hearing this brave man's speculation, several brave men standing beside him couldn't help but show a trace of intention in their eyes.

If she really had to retreat because of the side effects of her skills, maybe now is a good time to deal with her. If you get rid of one person on the other side, you will definitely be able to greatly reduce the overall strength of the opponent.

"Don't do anything superfluous, even if there are side effects, it doesn't matter to us. Our mission is only to protect the Crystal Pillar, and watch out for the other party's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain. ”

Hearing the brave man's guesses, he noticed the impatience of the others around him. The brave man who had chatted with Ah Tuo before was completely unaffected by his companions around him, the expression on his face was unusually calm, and he admonished his teammates in a calm tone.

——

"Puff, cough, cough, a. I didn't expect to encounter a weak attack for the first time, which is really bad. But it's lucky that I didn't have a seizure when I used the treasure. ”

As the brave men of the Orange Nation gradually calmed down, they prepared for a possible second attack. Zhuang Xiaoyuan had already left the stronghold of the Orange Country far away, and sat down on the thick branches of a towering tree.

When Zhuang Xiaoyuan sat down on the branch of the tree, after making sure that the brave men of the Orange Country did not chase after him. After enduring it for a while, she finally didn't continue to endure it, and coughed up a mouthful of blood directly.

The third form used by Zhuang Xiaoyuan - Okita Soji. has a very serious flaw, that is, the attribute of sickness and weakness. And this sick and weak attribute has also changed from an ordinary illness to an inherent skill-like existence with the heroic spirit of Okita Soji himself.

This illness does not threaten the life of Soji Okita, but it does affect her ability to fight for a long time. Moreover, this sick attribute will not disappear directly after it is triggered because Zhuang Xiaoyuan dismantles Okita Soji's transformation form.

Even if Zhuang Xiaoyuan changes back to Mordred from Okita Soji form at this time, the ability reduction effect of the weak attribute still exists. Even because of the change in form, the sickness that could have recovered in a short period of time may last longer.

Therefore, in the current state, Zhuang Xiaoyuan can only continue to maintain the form of Okita Soji, waiting for the effect of illness and weakness to pass.

Fortunately, when he fought with those brave men in the Orange Country just now, Zhuang Xiaoyuan had already noticed the faint thunder coming from his own stronghold. From this voice, it is certain that Karina has returned to her stronghold.

With Karina and Maddie here, there will definitely be no problem facing each other's two people. Therefore, the current Zhuang Xiaoyuan does not need to worry about the problem of his own stronghold. What needs to be considered is how to break the opponent's stronghold.

While waiting for the past of the sick and weak attributes, he was thinking about how to break the opponent's last magic crystal stone pillar. In this process, time passed slowly, and Zhuang Xiaoyuan finally gradually calmed down the negative impact of the sick and weak attributes.

During the time when Zhuang Xiaoyuan was resting, the thunder and explosions from the Red Country stronghold had long since fallen silent. I'm afraid the fighting has ended for the time being.

The outcome of the battle, of course, is beyond doubt. From the fact that this game is not over, it is clear that the two people in the Orange Country should not take advantage of Maddy and Karina.

Rustle, rustle, just as Zhuang Xiaoyuan was secretly relieved because of his weak recovery, a subtle friction sound suddenly came from a certain direction.

At the same time as the voice came, in the grass not far from the big tree where Zhuang Xiaoyuan was, a large blade of grass was overwhelmed, as if something was approaching this side.

Noticing the abnormality in the grass, Zhuang Xiaoyuan, who had just recovered from his illness, stood up vigilantly and jumped lightly, from the branch facing the direction of the grass to the branch facing away from the grass.

Carefully hiding his figure behind the big tree, Zhuang Xiaoyuan's right hand lightly rested on the handle of the knife, poked his head out slightly from the side of the big tree, and carefully looked at the grass that was moving.

"I didn't expect their support to return to the defense so quickly, it didn't take three minutes to come back at all, and it was only possible to break through her defense."

Large patches of grass were crushed to the ground, and a sturdy figure stepped on blades of grass and stepped out of the grass. At the same time that this figure met Zhuang Xiaoyuan's eyes, his voice also came to Zhuang Xiaoyuan's ears.

Sure enough, the two heroes of the Orange Country did not succeed in their attack on their stronghold. At this time, the first to come out of the grass was Ulrike, the leader of the Orange Country, and behind him, there was no doubt that it was Krami.
