I'm a fox girl, I took over the job of the Night Demon Queen

Hum~~~

180. What Ako didn’t say that day

Generally speaking, one can roughly judge the strength of an opponent by the speed of his attacks and the intensity of the pressure he feels. This is even easier to judge for mummies whose souls have returned to the underworld and who fight only by physical instinct.

People may use tricks and hide their abilities on purpose, but mummies won't. Every attack they make is at the limit of their ability.

A battle is never just a head-on clash of strength, it's also a battle of intelligence. When your strength isn't overwhelming, it's crucial to get enough intelligence from your opponent's actions at the beginning of the fight.

Yazi had no idea what the mummies could do, so she didn't dare to be careless. She didn't take their attacks with her fists, but kept dodging. She only used her hands to take the attacks when she couldn't dodge. In this way, she dodged and moved among the mummies' scattered and loose battle lines, trying to induce each corpse to attack her once. After each attack, she made a basic judgment on the opponent's combat power.

It seems that the function of the magic circle is not to produce undead creatures for driving, but as a small bonus, it transforms those poor people who provide blood for the magic circle into mummies. So even though their physical restrictions are opened because they have become corpses and their strength is much greater than when they were alive, most of them can only launch attacks with the strength of the second level, which is completely easy for Yazi to deal with.

There were two people who really gave Yazi a headache. One looked like an adventurer from his attire, and even after he turned into a mummy, one could still see his bulging muscles. The other one was wearing armor and one could tell at a glance that he was a city guard.

They should have followed Yazi and noticed something unusual and went into the alley to investigate, but in the end they lost their lives and turned into nutrients. Judging from the speed and power of each attack, the two should have had at least fourth-level strength when they were alive, but they were weakened because they were dead and could not release their fighting spirit. Otherwise, with so many strong mummies around, Yazi should have been unable to withstand it long ago.

All I can say is that corpses are just corpses after all. Although there are so many of them, their strength is still okay, but their intelligence is really poor. But even so, Yazi is a little overwhelmed to deal with being trapped among them.

For the new students in the academy, Ako is indeed a genius, but geniuses also need time to grow. In any case, Ako is only thirteen years old now and is very immature in all aspects.

After all, if she was mature enough, she would be thinking about how to escape with her stomach instead of how to take the girl with her.

With Yazi's agility, if she were alone, she would have escaped and sought help from the outside world long ago. However, because she could not give up the little girl whose life was in danger, she could only hold on and wait for a chance to break the deadlock, or wait for the guards to find her by following the scent she left behind.

But at the same time, Yazi continued to feel panic. She was still able to hold on in this siege, so how did the adventurers and guards who were obviously stronger than her in their lifetime die? It was definitely not because they didn't react in time and were ambushed by the corpses. They were experienced in combat and it was impossible for them to make such a low-level mistake in such an obviously weird environment.

Then the possibility points to one place. The owner of the engraved magic circle, the evil and weird necromancer, killed them here. Now she did not suffer a serious loss because the other party was not here, and he had certain confidence that the corpses could deal with her. But since she had triggered the "guards", if the corpses did not kill her for a long time, he would come. By then, she would be unable to escape even if she had wings.

"Tsk!"

After thinking it over, he knew he couldn't go on like this any longer, so he spat out the blood that had come out from taking the adventurer's punch head-on, and activated the fighting spirit in his body with all his strength. Bright white light immediately enveloped his fists that served as weapons, illuminating the dark alley.

"Although it is disrespectful to desecrate a corpse, this should be a relief for you."

Knowing that the other party could not hear him, Yazi still said sorry and then punched the mummy.

Then, he was smashed against the wall by the powerful fist, causing the stone wall to crack.

"Fuck, I can't beat him."

Her tremendous strength always suppressed her opponents, leaving them with no way to defend themselves but to dodge. However, this time, she suffered a setback instead. Yazi, who didn't even last three seconds, couldn't help but swear.

Even if the opponent has no fighting spirit, Yazi can only dodge and there is no reason to resist.

Although he was angry in his heart, his body was not slow. He dodged the next attack with a move and was forced into the corner of the wall. He found the only gap through which he could escape. Yazi rolled through the corpses. His opponents changed from adventurers and city guards to ordinary old people and the corpses of children. He supported himself with his hands and used a spinning kick to barely break another gap.

Looking at the mummy being kicked far away, Yazi breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally got some ground back.

The alley was very narrow, and she could only face two or three corpses at the same time. The opponents had no intelligence and no fighting methods, and the weaker ones blocked the two stronger ones behind them. Since she couldn't beat those two, she just had to keep looking for gaps to hide from them.

He went back and forth like this several times, picking on the weak each time, and with conscious actions, Yazi easily led the other party to a place relatively far away from the little girl.

Estimating that the distance was enough for her to run away with the little girl in her arms, Yazi's expression suddenly changed. She no longer looked embarrassed as she was being chased and jumped up and down, but instead ran away with her head in her hands. With a hip-drilling technique that made her look like a succubus or a fox, she got out of the encirclement, rolled to the girl and hugged her. She looked back and realized that the mummies who were chasing her in a hurry showed them evil smiles.

With one hand free, he squinted one eye and tilted his head, then Yazi raised two fingers and waved them from his temple as a graceful farewell ceremony.

"Bye~"

This is IQ suppression. I am super smart!

And then...I was hit back again.

Perhaps it had sensed the movement of living creatures, the originally silent magic circle suddenly lit up with a mysterious purple light, and a new summoned creature was born from it. This time it was no longer a mummified corpse, but a real undead spirit - a heavy shield corpse soldier made of piled up corpses stood in front of Yazi, and with one hammer, Yazi fell into the pile of mummies again.

He didn't even have a chance to say "wdnmd." or "I'm going to hit you with a hammer." He was already struggling to fight off two of the mummies that were too strong, and with the little girl in his arms, it was difficult for him to fight with his fists. Yazi's situation was even more urgent at the moment.

Not only from the mummies, but also from the heavy shield zombies that were getting closer.

He wanted to use the same trick again and use the weaker mummies as cover, but he didn't expect that bones would not recognize flesh. The heavy shield zombie soldier ignored the several mummies in front of Yazi and smashed down with a hammer. Faced with this swift and powerful attack, Yazi was caught off guard and all he could do was turn his back to avoid the little girl in his arms from being directly hit.

With a dull thud, Yazi was smashed directly into the wall by the huge hammer and spat out a few mouthfuls of blood with difficulty. However, he did not even have time to breathe. The threat of death was already approaching, and the adventurer's heavy fist was hitting Yazi in the face.

It was over. Realizing that she couldn't dodge the attack and feeling the increasingly stinging wind from the punches, Yazi closed her eyes in despair.

Deng!

A sound of breaking through the air, more ferocious than the fist wind, suddenly came. The flying sword brushed past Yazi's face, even cutting a bloody wound on his face. The fireworks collided with the heavy fist attacking Yazi, bursting out golden sparks.

With her fiery golden hair flying freely, the Phoenix of the South vows to burn away all malice.

"I am coming."

#It's all right now. If I have to say why, it's because I'm here - Hao Lianna#

ps: Well~ That’s Gugu’s evil taste. Now that he has an invincible debuff at the same level, then let Yazi suffer a lot at the hands of a higher-level being (laughs).

181. Isn’t blonde hair the defining characteristic of a tsundere?

For a moment, Yazi really felt that the scythe of the god of death had already swung over her head. This was the price she paid for her recklessness.

However, there is only fear, and there is no regret at all. It is not bad to die for upholding the justice in one's heart, right?

But in the end, a good death is worse than a miserable life. She has not become stronger, has not reached the level she desired, and has not been able to stand at the same height as her mother to see the world as she sees it.

Even more, I want to see Mona, Lilith, Alice, and... again.

My favorite mother.

So, when the flaming blade cut her cheek and cut off the swinging iron fist, looking at the shining knight appearing from the dark alley, Yazi really felt fortunate and relaxed.

Clearly, a few days ago, she had been competing with that person, causing friction and conflicts, and even gave him a mocking nickname, but at this moment.

"Hao Yingjun." He spat out the turbid blood in his mouth with a smile on his face. Such words came from his heart and came out of his mouth without hesitation.

"Heh, although I don't like this title, I will take it as a compliment at this moment."

Her long hair fluttered in front of her eyes like fire. In just a word, Haoliana dodged the bone soldier's hammer, pulled out the sharp sword that was inserted into the ground, and stood in front of Yazi like a knight.

"Thank you very much."

In response, Yazi couldn't help but express her gratitude.

Hao Lianna's figure paused slightly.

"I thought you would say, 'Who praised you? I can handle it on my own.'" Although she wanted to imitate Yazi's tone, she felt it was outrageous halfway through her words and couldn't help but let out a light laugh.

"The tsundere character is Mona. I have always been very honest. It's embarrassing for me to say that I am such a character in your eyes."

“Because she’s a blonde character.”

Blonde hair = tsundere, this equation does exist, but it is clear that Ako does not belong to this category. She is a straightforward child who speaks her mind.

If we were to talk about an equation, it would probably be this—

Blonde = loser!

Besides, "Aren't you also a blonde character?"

Putting the little girl down in her arms, Yazi blocked the bone arrows from the side for Haoliana. In this short period of time, the magic circle produced new bone soldiers again, this time they were sword-wielding archers, Saber, Archer. If this continues, would the next one to appear be Lucky E's Lancer?

"Ah, now it's red hair."

With a flash of thought, the blood of the phoenix was activated with all its strength, and the long golden hair suddenly turned red, bursting into sparks.

Here comes Hollyanna, with her flaming hair and scorching eyes.

It turned out that on the ring that day, Hao Lianna also hid her incompetence like Yazi.

"Where are you from, Fire Mist Warrior?"

Yazi and Hao Lianna were spitting out a joke that Hao Lianna couldn't understand at all and was only known to Jiang Lan's family. They were facing each other with their backs. The two who were enemies a few hours ago were now protecting each other's backs. One could not help but sigh at the fate that played such a trick on them.

"Are you okay with the injury you just received?"

"Don't worry, my body is as strong as my head."

"I suddenly feel a little envious of idiots."

"I can't pretend I didn't hear you."

"Then come and settle the score with me after everything is over."

"..."

The sudden silence made Haoliana feel a little cold.

"what happened?"

"You are the tsundere character who says things like that."

Survive and come settle the score with me. If you're worried about her, just tell me.

The villain in Yu Yazi's mind took out a folding fan and laughed.

"No Road Race!"

Sure enough, it is Hollyanna who calls others tsundere who is the real tsundere.

The immature hero and the lady knight smiled knowingly at the same time.

However, the jokes to tease each other ended here. The encirclement formed by the mummies and skeleton soldiers no longer gave them the time to have a relaxed conversation.

The two newly generated bone soldiers were slightly stronger than the previous adventurers, and their guards were similar, so the wounded Yazi would face the weaker mummies, while Haoliana would deal with the two bone soldiers on the other side.

But to be honest, the battle was one in which the gap in strength was huge on both sides.

Yazi had already tried the tactic of annihilating the mummies and then leaving, but he suffered in an instant at the hands of the mummies, whose physical strength increased greatly after losing their fighting spirit. He could only flee in a panic, or even be trapped to escape. Now his movement space was further compressed, and the tactic of retreating and fighting could no longer be effective. He could only try his best to dodge and attack, but with little success.

As humans, we feel pain, which affects the fluidity of our movements. Moreover, our mortal bodies have various weaknesses, and if any one of them is broken, our combat capability will be greatly reduced, not to mention fragile parts like the heart and the head.

But as corpses, their hearts stop beating, their brains stop thinking, they don't get tired and they don't feel pain. Even if their limbs are broken and their heads are shattered, they are still moving. As weapons, they can perhaps be called perfect.

Facing such an enemy, it is difficult for Yazi to cause effective damage with bare hands. Now she finally understands what her mother taught her: to become a strong person, proficiency in weapons is a must. A weak person with bare hands will not be scary, but holding a kitchen knife will make most people terrified.

This can be seen from the battle on Haoliana's side. Although she could not defeat the opponent's arrow and shield combination, and even because of the restraint of the shield soldiers, she had to constantly shoot down the flying bone arrows to avoid hurting Yazi who was fighting behind her. She already had many wounds on her body. If she was left alone, even if she was not hit in the vital parts, she would be weakened or even defeated due to excessive blood loss. However, with the enchanted high-quality magic sword in her hand, her situation was better than Yazi's.

But it's just a little better.

They both knew that they couldn't hold on for much longer.

The pure white fighting spirit sprayed wildly, finally making the troublesome guard among the mummies completely lose the ability to move. The headless torso squirmed weakly on the floor, and Yazi gasped heavily.
