Chapter 482: The Deep Spiral (Two in One)

Mondstadt, Adventurers' Guild.

Li Qiuzhi came here with Noel and Bennett.

Catherine, wearing a green and white dress, was behind the counter as usual, handing over commissions to the adventurers.

She still looks so gentle.

Li Qiuzhi and his team only approached after the adventurer in front accepted the commission and left.

"Hey, isn't this the famous legendary adventurer? Why did you come to my place again?"

Catherine said teasingly.

"Ms. Catherine, please don't joke with me. No matter how powerful an adventurer is, he still has to come to you to accept commissions."

Li Qiuzhi touched the side of his face awkwardly.

"Haha, so what kind of commission do you want to take today?" Catherine chuckled with her hands covering her mouth.

"Uh, do you have any commissions related to the treasure-stealing group? If not, you can also take a commission to escort a caravan."

Li Qiuzhi thought for a while and said.

"The treasure-stealing gang? The Knights have been cracking down on the treasure-stealing gangs recently, but there have been no requests to arrest or expel them for quite some time.

"We do have requests to escort caravans, but they are mostly for the next few days. Today's requests have either already departed or have been accepted by an adventure group."

Catherine shook her head slightly.

"Really? Then there's nothing we can do." Li Qiuzhi didn't have to accept the commission, but he could earn some commission money by the way.

Since that doesn't work, then I can just take some commissions to clear monsters.

Then go out into the wild and see if you can meet a group of treasure hunters. With Bennett's unlucky physique, there is a chance that he will run into trouble.

Although you may not necessarily encounter a treasure-hunting group, it is also good to encounter other monsters to gain experience points.

As for collecting and summarizing the characteristics of evil people and providing them to Noelle as a reference, it will make it easier for her to distinguish the good and evil of a person who hides more deeply.

There is no need to be too anxious for now, there is still half a month left.

Anyway, when summarizing the characteristics of bad guys, we don’t necessarily have to use the treasure-stealing group as a reference.

There are so many people in the city with bad intentions.

There is no problem in being invisible and secretly following them to find out what kind of bad tricks they are doing.

Of course, if she could directly get an entry that could see through malicious intent, she wouldn't have to go through so much trouble.

Li Qiuzhi is more inclined to the latter, so that the problem can be solved once and for all.

After all, no matter how many summaries are made, Noel cannot become a wise man who can easily see through the good and evil of people in just half a month.

This requires time and experience to accumulate. Experience and cognition cannot be achieved overnight and need to be accumulated.

"You are a legendary adventurer now, so you should leave those simple commissions to other people in the association.

"As for you, I have a big commission that has been on hold for a long time. Are you interested in learning more about it?"

Catherine placed her hands in front of her abdomen and said with a smile.

"A big commission?"

Li Qiuzhi was a little surprised. For a commission that could be called a big one, could it be a legendary commission?
"Haha, it's not a very dangerous thing. After all, we have the protection of the Lord of Wind."

Catherine chuckled and explained:

"In fact, there are adventurers who are going out to sea on a boat to challenge the 'Abyss Spiral' on Musk Reef.

"Suddenly, they discovered a powerful wind core appeared on Musk Reef. It was extremely violent, as if it was possessed by a demon, preventing them from approaching the 'Abyss Spiral'.

“Although there aren’t many adventurers who are strong enough to challenge the ‘Abyss Spiral’ at Musk Reef, there are still some.

"We can't let a mere 'Wild Wind Core' dampen the enthusiasm of adventurers.

"Also, we need to investigate why the 'Wild Wind Core' became demonized. If it turns out to be a serious problem, it would be terrible if we don't find it in time~
"The only one who can undertake this commission is a legendary adventurer like Li Qiuzhi, so do you want to accept this commission?
"The commission is quite generous!"

Musk Reef? Isn't that the location of the "Abyss Spiral" instance, one of the biggest sources of raw stones for players in the game?
Li Qiuzhi looked a little surprised.

Many things in the game have reasonable explanations and are not added for the sake of improving gameplay, such as "teleportation anchors" and "treasure chests".

If there really is a "Spiral Abyss" in Musk Reef, and there are many monsters to spawn like in the game, then it is definitely worth a visit!
"Musk Reef! I heard from my fathers that the 'Abyss Spiral' there is an ancient underground city built by an ancient civilization that has long been destroyed.

"There are countless treasures buried there. Of course, because there are so many treasures, there are many treasure-stealing groups, fools, and even monsters!"

Bennett said excitedly.

He had wanted to go there for adventure a long time, but he felt that he was not strong enough and it would be very dangerous to go there, so he never went.

But if Li Qiuzhi is with him, he is very confident to explore the "Abyss Spiral"!

"I see. I've heard of that place before. How about going there, Noelle?"

Li Qiuzhi nodded, then looked at the girl next to him and asked.

"Well, if, as Bennett said, there are many people taking risks there, it would be an opportunity to learn. I think I can go."

Noelle thought about what was said in the book, that places where treasures are buried are full of intrigues, and thought that if he went to see for himself, he might be able to learn something.

With Mr. Adventurer here, there will be absolutely no danger!

"Since everyone has no objection, let's accept this commission. We will deal with the Wind Core and take a look at the 'Abyss Spiral' while we're at it!"

Li Qiuzhi made the decision.

"Okay, I'll help you record it now." Catherine turned around and found the order form and handed it to Li Qiuzhi, "That's it."

"Thank you for your hard work, let's go now!"

Li Qiuzhi politely took the order and took a quick look at its contents.

It was discovered that the client was the Adventurer's Guild, and the commission was 10 million Mora, which was indeed a high-level commission among adventure commissions.

It seems that the power of the Gale Core is not weak.

After the Adventurer's Association accepted the commission, Li Qiuzhi, Noel, Bennett and others prepared to head to Musk Reef.

After leaving the city gate and walking on the bridge, Noelle looked at the mirror-like surface of the Fruit Wine Lake, thought for a moment and said:

"Musk Reef is out in the ocean, should we go rent a boat?"

Mond City is not close to Musk Reef. It takes one or two days to get there from Eagle Beach.

"Hey, if we rent a boat, won't it cost a lot of Mora?" Bennett knew without thinking that renting a boat for one or two days would definitely not be cheap.

Li Qiuzhi shook his head and said, "No need to bother, we can just fly over there!"

After saying that, he guided the green wind element to slowly gather and circle around the few people. The next moment, he suddenly spread his wings of wind, and the green whirlwind carried him into the air.

"Use wind elements to assist in flying? This way we can save the cost of renting a boat. How convenient!"

Bennett agreed with this plan and immediately opened his wings of wind. With the help of the whirlwind, he easily flew into the air.

Soon, Noelle did the same, and slowly flew up under the traction of the Wings of Wind, her skirt fluttering slightly, and her legs in armored boots swaying lightly in the air.

Seeing that everyone was ready, Li Qiuzhi skillfully controlled the wind element and pushed several people into a high-speed flight state. In just a few seconds, they completely disappeared from the spot and entered the range of the wind. The grass below was like a rushing green river, retreating rapidly.

Not long after, they flew out of the Windy Land and arrived at the Eagle Beach. Looking from afar, they could even see the blue sea.

"Wow, this is my first time flying so fast!" exclaimed Bennett.

If he was this fast, he should be able to take a commission in the morning and come back at noon to prepare lunch for the dads.

"Don't be jealous, you will be able to do it soon."

Li Qiuzhi continued to use the wind element to block the strong wind pressure caused by the excessive speed and said with a smile.

What he meant was that the elemental steam locomotive in Liyue was almost successfully developed, and it would only take a few minutes to sell it to Mondstadt.

As long as the performance reaches 100 kilometers per hour, it can basically meet the needs of various industries.

"Really"

Before Bennett could finish his words, he saw a white bird monster rushing towards him. It was obvious that his bad luck was beginning to take effect.

"Danger!"

Noelle also spotted the white demon bird in front of him. He let out a nervous exclamation and instinctively opened his heart armor.

Her strength is not yet at the level where she can use the Heart Armor on others.

Therefore, he had no choice but to take out the West Wind Greatsword and stand in front of Li Qiuzhi and Bennett, ready to take the impact of the white magic bird.

Li Qiuzhi quickly glanced at the level of the white magic bird and found that it was around level 50, much more powerful than Bennett and Noel.

Thinking that she might get hurt if she took it head-on, Li Qiuzhi attacked without hesitation.

He continued to maintain his flying posture without any special movements, and his invisible mental power quickly spread out.

The flying white demon bird suddenly felt a shock in its head, which instantly went blank, and its eyes, as sharp as those of a hawk, turned white.

Eventually, the wings were no longer able to flap, and it fell toward the woods below like a plane crash.

Li Qiuzhi controlled the wind element to make everyone stop slowly, perfectly avoiding the falling path of the white magic bird.

At this moment, Li Qiuzhi's mission panel also popped up a prompt to defeat the enemy:
[Defeat powerful enemies and gain 952 experience points. 】

"Oh, thank you, Mr. Adventurer." Looking at the magic bird suddenly falling, Noel knew that it was Li Qiuzhi who took action.

She exhaled slightly, and her shoulders drooped in relaxation. The gold-rimmed steel shoulder guards collided with the breastplate that exposed her snow-white skin, making a uniquely crisp sound of metal.

[Noelle has developed a favorable impression of you, gaining 230 points of favorable impression, and the current favorable impression level is Lv.6 (580/600)]

"You're welcome, we're a team."

Li Qiuzhi said with a smile.

"Huh, you scared me. How could a white demon bird suddenly appear here? It's not my fault again, is it?"

Bennett scratched the back of his head in embarrassment.

"Don't worry, I'm here. Even if your unlucky physique attracts the Ancient Demon God, I will make him lose two teeth and leave in disgrace!"

Li Qiuzhi said comfortingly.

"Ah."

Bennett nodded in approval, and felt less resentful towards himself. After all, he knew that Li Qiuzhi could really do such a thing.

"Mr. Adventurer, Bennett, look down there. That white magic bird seems a little strange."

Noelle looked down at the place where the white demon bird fell.

Li Qiuzhi and Bennett followed her line of sight and saw that the white demon bird had crashed into a tree as thick as two legs.

Its entire body was stuck in the branches. Perhaps because it was still dizzy, it didn't move at all and didn't struggle at all.

But the unusual thing is that its back twists like ripples and slowly bulges.

"It's a bit weird, what's going on?"

Li Qiuzhi frowned and summoned a translucent tentacle, about to stretch it towards the back of the white demon bird.

At this moment, the back of the magic bird suddenly exploded, and pieces of white paper flew and fell like snowflakes.

Continuing to look at the back of the magic bird, I found that a man dressed in white was standing there.

"What's going on? Why is there suddenly a person on the back of the magic bird!" Bennett said in surprise.

"Perhaps he used some special method to hide on the back of the demon bird?"

Noelle, who was hovering in the air, pinched her chin with her fingers and spoke with some speculations, thinking about the scene she just saw.

"Maybe, but he is full of hostility towards us now." Li Qiuzhi spread his hands, feeling helpless.

Bennett's unlucky physique is really good. Look, the second person who sends experience points is here again.

"Assholes, who are you and why are you attacking me!"

A man dressed in white looked at Li Qiuzhi and others angrily.

He had just escaped from the ambush of those damn Knights of Favonius when his pet suddenly fainted for no apparent reason.

Damn, it must be these guys who did this!

Although he was angry, the man in white still suppressed the urge to take revenge on the people in front of him.

Because the knights following behind and that asshole woman are about to catch up!
He glanced at the fainted white demon bird. It had no way of carrying him away. What a bastard! The man in white clothes became angrier and angrier the more he thought about it!

I was running just fine, why did these nosy people suddenly appear?

Huh. Calm down. Now is not the time to cause trouble. Run away and hide first. The man in white clothes barely regained his sanity.

He drove the Eye of God to guide the water element and was about to jump to the ground and dive underground to escape, but at this moment, a cold voice sounded:

"The sacrament of death!"

A cross-shaped ice spear made entirely of ice elements fell from the sky, and the endless extreme cold locked onto the man in white clothes.

There is absolutely no chance of escape!

In the end, he was still upset with himself for not running away as soon as he got up from the back of the magic bird, but he angrily cursed Li Qiuzhi and others first.

This resulted in a waste of a few seconds of precious time, and you paid the price you deserved.

"boom!"

The ice spear hit the man in white clothes, and also froze the trees within dozens of meters nearby into ice sculptures.

"What is this?" Li Qiuzhi felt a familiar breath from the ice.

He didn't have to wonder for long, as a figure dressed in nun-style clothing suddenly appeared from the treetops that had turned into ice sculptures not far away.
