Chapter 441 Ricardo's Abnormality

Elf Forest, Casper Valley,

Li Si, who had just defeated the golden-level dark blue giant, looked at the elemental core the size of a human head in the giant's chest with some surprise. This time, the dark abyss power flowed in the elemental core like a substance.

Just by looking at it, one can feel the heart-pounding chill and indescribable horror contained in the power, as if it can distort all order and desire to destroy all beautiful existence.

Li Si had personally felt the power of the abyss when the demon gate of Bingfeng City was opened before, so he was very sure of this judgment.

Why did the power of the abyss appear here?

Li Si was a little shocked. No matter what the situation was, the power of the abyss had spread deep into the Casper Valley and even disturbed the earth elemental giant of such a large scale.

This was a very unusual thing.

Others didn't know, but Li Si, who had experienced the bloody battle of [World Scars] in his previous life, could not be unclear.

Although the chaotic power of the bottomless abyss and demons is so strange and powerful, Gaia is the core of the universe after all, and the order it represents is extremely stable and difficult to shake.

Even the power of the abyss is extremely difficult to invade Gaia. This is why every time the abyss demon invades Gaia, it must first open the demon gate, otherwise the abyss power will be corrected by the world power of Gaia like rootless water.

So the abyss power actually exists in the elemental core of the earth element giant, which is a very abnormal situation.

If it is near the abyss gate or in an area polluted by the power of the abyss, there are indeed such extraordinary monsters infected by the power of the abyss, thus possessing some abyss breath.

If it is seriously infected by the power of the abyss, it may even master a certain amount of the power of the abyss.

However, at the same time, the mind of the monster infected by the power of the abyss will also be polluted and corrupted by the power of the abyss, and begin to lean towards darkness and madness.

So for many people, being infected by the power of the abyss is not a good thing.

However, the abyss power in the elemental core of the giant in front of him was only the simplest infection, so there was nothing abnormal about the appearance of these earth elemental giants.

This is why the other members of the elf team did not find the existence of the abyss power in the battle with the earth elemental giant.

Li Si also discovered it accidentally.

Taking the elemental core out of the chest of the dark blue giant, Li Si noticed that it seemed that because of the death of the dark blue giant, the abyss power in the elemental core was dissipating in the air at a relatively slow speed.

Keeping this discovery in mind, Li Si did not care to stay any longer and rushed towards the direction of the elf team.

Even if the existence of the abyss power was discovered, it would not change the situation faced by the elf team.

It would be impossible to purify the abyss power in so many earth elemental giants even if a legendary priest was present.

Putting this earth elemental core back into the storage ring, Li Si dodged the attacks of other earth elemental giants.

Not long after, Li Si rushed back to the team. Although many elves were still facing the attacks of earth elemental giants, they still felt refreshed when they saw Li Si coming back.

Li Si's strength won the respect of all the elves present. He killed the golden-level dark blue giant in a short time. Even Lord Ricardo would find it difficult to do it, right?

With Li Si, the elves in the team felt much more confident.

Ricardo, who was in front of the team, also noticed Li Si's action, and his respect for Li Si went up a level.

Ricardo, who had a long life, naturally knew the strength shown by Li Si.

In his opinion, Li Si's strength was quite good in the golden level, and the next level was the level of mastering the extraordinary realm.

As a strong man who mastered the extraordinary realm, although Ricardo had no possibility of continuing to climb up, he was now considered a top strong man in the golden level.

Even so, he had no confidence that he could defeat the dark blue giant in a short time.

It seemed that there was no problem with the decision to invite Li Si to the Elf King's Court. Li Si might really be able to provide some help in the difficulties faced by the Elf King's Court.

This idea was only in Ricardo's mind, and it was quickly suppressed.

As the commander of the entire team, Ricardo is now under great pressure.

"Turn right and keep moving forward!"

"Sikaer, you go and lead away the golden earth element giant in front of you on the right!"

"Shabana, you retreat first, Ibra, you take her place!"

Not only should you try to break through in the direction where the earth element giant group is weaker, but you should also use spells to resist the attacks of other giants, command other elves to treat the injured elves in time and arrange for others to fill the vacancies.

At this time, Li Si, who was at the back of the team, did not bear much pressure.

Most of the bronze and silver earth element giants were stopped by the elves, and only those stronger silver-level or even gold-level giants would be attacked by Li Si.

Li Si, who has many recovery specialties, does not consume much. For him with balanced and comprehensive attributes, these earth element giants are strong, but it is difficult to pose any threat to him.

In the subsequent process of advancing, Li Si successively killed more than a dozen silver-level giants and three gold-level giants.

The most critical incident happened once when a five-meter-tall silver-level earth elemental giant was thrown into the elf team out of thin air by a gold-level giant as a projectile.

Li Si, who had been paying attention to the surrounding situation, quickly reacted and jumped into the air to knock the giant directly away.

Compared with the giant's huge body, Li Si's body is quite small, but with such a huge gap, Li Si won in the instantaneous strength competition.

You know, this is intercepting the giant in mid-air!

This is more terrifying than surpassing the giant on the ground!

For a while, even the most elite elf warriors in the Elf King's Court looked at Li Si with a bit of palpitations in their eyes.

They have been living in the Elf Forest and rarely see someone's power so terrifying.

While observing the surrounding battlefield environment, Li Si also paid attention to the situation of Elder Ricardo in front.

As a gold-level elf wizard, Ricardo's long life has allowed him to master a large number of spells, and he is also quite skilled in the timing and choice of using spells.

For mages, knowledge is the basis of all power.

Ricardo perfectly embodies this point.

At the same time, Ricardo also mastered the power of the extraordinary domain. Under Li Si's observation, Ricardo should have mastered the power of two extraordinary domains.

One is [Extraordinary Domain·Forest], and the other is [Extraordinary Domain·Sun].

The blazing bright white flames on the elf soldiers' weapons should be the power of [Extraordinary Domain·Sun], which makes it easier for the weapons to break through the giants' defense.

The thick vines and trees that drilled out from the ground should be the power driven by [Extraordinary Domain·Forest], which frantically stopped the giants from advancing.

Yes, as a sun elf, it is normal to master this extraordinary domain.

Moreover, Li Si can see that Ricardo has mastered the extraordinary domain for a long time and is quite skilled in controlling the power of the extraordinary domain.

Although the power brought by the extraordinary domain is powerful, the consumption of the user is also quite exaggerated.

Not only does it consume a lot of magic power, but it also consumes its own mental power continuously.

For Li Si, who is now full of blood and blue, he doesn't care about these consumptions, but it is obvious that Ricardo does not have the same conditions as Li Si.

But he relied on his extraordinary control to carefully control the power of each extraordinary domain, and calculated carefully to achieve the best effect.

It was also because of Ricardo's operation that he looked at ease now.

However, Li Si also noticed it.

Some earth element giants in the battlefield were vaguely restricted and hindered by a gust of illusory breeze, which made these giants slow down for a few breaths, but they could not catch up with the speed of the elf team.

Although it was not obvious, it effectively relieved the pressure faced by the entire team.

Did the elf legend secretly take action?

Li Si saw it in his eyes and remained calm.

The Elf Forest is the home of the elves, and the strength of the legendary elves can be maximized here.

Although the target is the [World Tree Sprout] born on the ruins of the Elf King's Court, Li Si has no intention of confronting the elves head-on.

Even [Flame of Judgment] Teacher Stephens can't do that.

He has already performed very well in this battle, so let others do the rest.

The fact was just as Li Si thought. Although the process of crossing the Casper Valley was full of twists and turns, the whole team finally succeeded in breaking through the group of earth element giants.

When they climbed the rock wall on the other side of the Casper Valley, almost everyone collapsed on the ground and gasped.

The elves who always loved cleanliness were already covered with dust. Although the mages could resist the earth element spells used by the giants, they had no time to stop the dust.

Elder Ricardo also had a pale face, which was obviously due to excessive consumption of magic power and mental power.

But he still forced himself to stay alert and arranged for everyone to camp and rest on the spot, and then he went to the side to sit down and meditate to restore his energy.

Li Si handed the kettle in his hand to Cecil and said with a smile:

"How do you feel? Are you okay?"

Cecil looked at Li Si, took the kettle with a bitter smile and said:

"Lord Li Si, you are really..."

"I am very glad that I asked you to protect me along the way in Nelin City. I can't imagine that you are so strong that you will accept commissions from the Mercenary Guild."

"Traveling, you always have to find something to do."

Li Si waved his hand. He couldn't say that he accepted the commission because of Cecil's identity, right?

Since there was nothing to do now, Li Si took out the earth element core in the storage ring.

The earth element core the size of a human head is different from the rugged appearance of the giant. Under the influence of magic, it is a regular and round sphere.

After Li Si took it out, the dark abyss power that originally flowed on the surface of the element core almost completely dissipated at this moment, leaving only a few black lines looming in it.

Seeing this, the other elves didn't care.

Li Si was just looking at his spoils, nothing special.

Even Cecil only looked at them for a few seconds before looking away. Although she did not fight the earth element giant head-on during the breakthrough, she consumed most of her magic power by continuously casting spells.

At this moment, after using the magic potion, she began to meditate.

Her father said that even if Lord Li Si was there, she had to maintain her own condition in the face of danger.

Li Si looked at the element core in his hand and touched his chin.

To be honest, although he was sure that the power in the elemental core in front of him came from the bottomless abyss, he was not sure whether it was the work of the demon prince Demogorgon.

However, in a place so close to the Elf King's Court, it was almost the same as if it was Demogorgon's operation.

Since their team successfully passed through the group of earth elemental giants and nothing too dangerous happened, it also meant that the appearance of the earth elemental giants in the Casper Valley was not to stop them.

Could it be that the appearance of this abyss power escaped from other places?

Li Si was a little unsure. The escaped power alone was enough to affect such a number of earth elemental giants. How exaggerated was Demogorgon's real plan and arrangement?

Thinking about it made him a little scared. Li Si hesitated for a moment, then stood up and walked towards Elder Ricardo.

At this moment, many elves were preparing tents to stay here tonight, and Ricardo closed his eyes and sat cross-legged on a moss-covered rock.

Li Si played with the khaki elemental core in his hand and walked in front of Ricardo.

The elf warriors standing guard saw that it was Li Si who was coming over. Although they did not let down their guard, they still nodded to Li Si to show respect.

Li Si's performance on the battlefield far exceeded their expectations. His strength was almost the same as that of Elder Ricardo, and he won their respect.

Not to mention that Li Si also had the protection of the elf goddess Fenria. The milestone [Best Friend of the Elves] made the elves' initial favorability to Li Si at the friendly level.

With so many factors affecting him at the same time, Li Si's favorability in this elf team was almost bursting.

Even those young day elves greeted Li Si in a friendly manner when they saw him.

Li Si smiled and nodded. Why not brush up a little more favorability?

However, Li Si now had something to test Ricardo.

As if noticing someone approaching, Ricardo woke up from his meditation.

Seeing that the person coming was Li Si, Ricardo smiled and said:

"Thank you very much for your help this time, Mr. Li Si."

"If it weren't for you, these children might not be injured now."

"When we arrive at the Elven King's Court, our Ilisel family will definitely express our most sincere gratitude."

"It should be, after all, I am also a member of the team."

Li Si shook his head and consciously placed the element core in front of him.

At this time, Ricardo noticed the khaki element crystal in Li Si's hand.

For some reason, Ricardo felt an inexplicable attraction from this element crystal, and even unconsciously stretched out his hand.

"What is this?"

Li Si noticed that Ricardo was absent-minded for a moment, and his eyes condensed.

This Ricardo, there is something wrong!
