Stop, I'm about to become a boss!

Chapter 35 Pursuit, the bubble of nothingness
Chapter 35 Pursuit, Bubbles of Nothingness

After Iris emptied the last blood tank of [Shadow of Darkness], Linton used [Collection Technique] to successfully collect the pure spirit dropped by the boss.

However, just as the two were about to leave here, a sudden change occurred.

The black mist condensed again in an instant, forming a vague figure of a child.

Logically speaking, after a leader-level boss is defeated, it usually takes 72 hours to respawn, but now even 7 minutes have passed, how could it be revived so quickly?

Surprised, Linton found that the blackness on the figure's body was fading rapidly, and then the whole body was soaked in silver moonlight, gradually solidified, and turned into a cute little girl.

The girl wore two small braids, her face was immature, and her eyes full of spirituality were sizing up the two people in front of her, and finally stopped on Linton.

"Big brother, are you here to take me home?"

The girl's voice was soft and soft, and she sounded like a baby. If she didn't know what made her, she would have ordered a blood bag to mend her.

Linton, who was planning to play with monsters just now, bent down slowly, looked into the girl's eyes, and his voice was unimaginably gentle with Iris.

"Little friend, what's your name? Where do you live?"

"My name is Bella!" Bella said her name, and immediately fell into distress again, "I live in a village! But... I forgot how to get there"

She reached out and grabbed Linton's clothes, and said softly, "Brother, can you take me home? There are many beautiful flowers in my house, and I can share the most beautiful one with you!"

Iris leaned over, suppressed her voice, and made a terrifying look: "Aren't you afraid that we are bad people? We will sell you far away! Far, far away!"

Miss Puppet's prank has no acting skills at all, but Bella was still taken aback, and her eyes were suddenly clouded.

She hopped behind Linton, only showing a small face, and said in fear: "Big brother, this sister is a bad person! Let's go, go home."

"?"

Iris' eyelids twitched.

"It's obvious that the person in front of you looks like a bad guy! You can see that he's dressed in jet black and possesses strange magic powers."

"That's not true!" Bella retorted loudly, "Big Brother is definitely a good person! Absolutely!!"

"You are the bad guy!"

Iris clutched her chest in disbelief.

Miss Knight has been very popular everywhere since she was a child, and it is difficult to hear a few bad words, let alone be hated by children and regarded as a bad person.

She wanted to refute a few words, but when she was about to speak, she found that something seemed wrong around her.

Under normal circumstances, seeing himself deflated, a certain necromancer would say a few sarcastic remarks, and he should not hide his laughter.

But why is he suddenly so quiet?

Looking at Linton, Miss Doll found that he was quietly looking down at the ground with a thoughtful look on his face.

[In the weird square, a mysterious girl makes a request to you.]

[World Quest: Pursuit, Bubble of Nothingness]

[Mission Objective 1: Bring Bella back to her home]

[Mission rewards: 20000 experience, 50000 gold coins]

[Mission objective 2:? ? ? 】

【mission rewards:? ? ? 】

Linton looked at the words that suddenly appeared and fell into deep thought.

World quests, as the name suggests, are quests that players may trigger while traveling the world, with varying degrees of difficulty, varying rewards, and various triggering methods.

Since the map of each country in "Kingdom of Heavenly Law" is very large, its number is not much different from the number of stars in the sky, so that no post dared to say that all world quests had been discovered before Linton crossed.

But the problem is that the place under his feet is the location of the boss, and it has been visited by countless players, but he can't think of anyone who has triggered this task after searching through his memory.

"Perhaps... because of the characteristics of necromancers?"

Put aside the questions for now, and look at the mission introduction again.

There are not many rewards, which means that this is not a very difficult or complicated task.

But why is the question mark behind it?
"Hey!"

Linton's thinking was interrupted by outside voices, and he became inexplicably transformed into the Chuhehan world in chess, with girls and girls confronting each other across him.

Bella tugged at the corner of his clothes, and whispered: "Big brother, let's go, this sister is so scary."

Iris suddenly became angry: "I am not scary! I am clearly reminding you not to be deceived!!"

"You are a liar!"

"I'm not!!"

"Okay, okay, stop arguing." Linton didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and clapped his hands to prevent the two from continuing to spam each other with kindergarten-level trash talk, "Iris, even if you win, I won't reward you with candy."

He never expected that Iris would be able to be brought down to a childish level when arguing with children, and was almost defeated by others with rich experience.

It is indeed a child.

"Who wants your candy! Don't treat me like a child, bastard!"

Iris gave the necromancer a blank look, and her heart, which hadn't grown up much, regained its composure.

She glanced at the little girl hiding behind Linton and asked, "Are you going to promise her? Do you know where her home is?"

"Is there any other place in the vicinity where people live?"

"The village?"

Iris frowned and said, "I understand."

"Bella." Linton also looked down at the little girl and stretched out his hand, "Let's go and take you home."

"Great!"

Bella put her hand in Linton's, and the gentle wrapping feeling immediately made her squint her eyes, revealing a happy expression like a cat.

"."

Iris looked at the two groups of one big and one small walking side by side holding hands, and felt a strange feeling in her heart.

"He really likes children."

She repeated in her heart what she said at the entrance of the village, but she didn't realize that the same words had a bit more lemon flavor this time.

"Big brother, what is the candy you just mentioned? Is it a fruit as delicious as an apple?"

Linton lowered his head and met the girl's curious eyes.

He smiled slightly, and as soon as he held one, a shiny candy appeared in his palm.

"This is candy, here you go, try it."

"Thank you big brother!"

Bella frowned, took the not-so-good quality sugar, threw it into her mouth, and tasted it carefully.

"It's much, much smaller than an apple. It tastes like it has no taste."

Linton was taken aback for a moment, and then remembered that the girl was actually a spirit creature without a body.

"Sorry, I got it wrong."

He patted his head, his eyes glowed, and when he opened his hand again, two candies that were much darker than before appeared in his hand again.

The girl picked up one, put it in her mouth, and immediately narrowed her eyes happily: "It's so sweet, so sweet, so sweet!"

She picked up another candy and held it in front of Linton: "Brother, you can eat it too!"

"Mom said that if you have delicious food, you should share it with everyone!"

"I have a lot more, as long as you like it." Linton smiled gently.

"How did you do it?" Iris leaned over and asked curiously, "Actually, a spirit body shouldn't be able to have proprioception. How do you make her think sugar is sweet?"

"It's not difficult." Linton wrote lightly, "It's true that a spirit body can't have feelings, but before it became a spirit body, it once recorded this feeling through the body. I took the taste of candy from me Extract it from your own feelings, and then use magic as a medium to transmit it to Bella, thereby activating her 'sweetness' hidden in the depths."

"."

Iris's eyes were no different from looking at a monster.

She didn't know anything else, but she felt that it was outrageous enough just to back up and extract her "feeling".

Although the other parts are not fully understood, they are also very shocking.

She couldn't help complaining: "It's obviously very complicated, but in your eyes, it's as simple as moving a piece of wood around."

"Maybe. I'm a genius too?"

"Cut, don't be ashamed."

Linton smiled, but did not answer.

The three of them were chatting while walking on the mountain road. It didn't take long for the only village in the mountain to appear in front of them again.

Only this time, the mountain village shrouded in night is no longer simple, but a little more treacherous hidden in the invisible darkness.
