Chapter 653 Swimming in the Temple
"Look, Xiaolin, this is a rare statue of my god...!"
Aqua pointed angrily at her broken statue.
"Did you incur some grudge?"
Xiao Lin rolled his eyes slightly and said, "Don't worry about that. Let's go deeper first."
"What do you mean by that? Are you saying that it doesn't matter if my beauty is destroyed?" Aqua yelled. Isn't she too obsessed with this matter?
so troublesome.
It will sink again at sunset.
Just forget it.
Huihui looked around and said, "It seems that there is water in the maze. Be careful for aquatic monsters."
“We have to get back before sunset. Try to move as quickly as possible,” Darkness said.
Everyone in the group nodded.
Now their levels have dropped. If they don't return before sunset, it will cause the lake water to gather again. So they should find the magic stone of water quickly and leave here.
The group walked towards the depths of the maze.
Not long after.
"……Um?"
"What's wrong, Darkness?"
"No, something seems to be moving in the dark over there..."
"Is it a monster? Xiaolin, be careful!"
Darkness and Megumin said so.
Xiao Lin also frowned and looked over, and subconsciously said: "Really? There is no sign of that anywhere... ah?!"
Suddenly, his vision was blocked, and a slimy and suffocating feeling came over him.
"What, what is this?!"
Xiaolin kept scratching his head.
Huihui exclaimed, "Ah! It's a squid! The squid is wrapped around Xiaolin's head!"
"What a huge squid!"
Xiaolin kept pulling at the squid, but its body was too smooth and he couldn't catch it no matter how hard he pulled.
"Damn it, it's wrapped around my face and I can't get it off!"
"Leave it to me. Master Kobayashi, please squat down."
"Ah, it's been sucked by the suction cup. Pull it slowly - it hurts!"
Kobayashi squatted down, and Liu Zi stretched out his hands to pull the squid, but he didn't expect that the suction power of the squid was so strong that it even deformed his face.
"Well, can't you take it off like this? It's really troublesome. Master Kobayashi, you are really popular with the squid. I didn't expect you to have such a talent."
“Didn’t I tell you to pull slowly? You’re using so much force that my head is almost bald—Aaaaaah!!!”
Liu Zi pulled even harder.
Xiaolin screamed in pain.
This was the first time he had encountered such a thing, and he had no idea what to do.
Aqua covered her mouth and laughed secretly.
“Puff, puff, puff! It’s too shameful to be entangled by a squid! It’s because you were too careless that you were targeted. You should pay more attention to your surroundings in the maze... eh?!”
Before she could finish her words, a blue figure pounced on the stupid goddess' face.
"Ah?! This time the squid is wrapped around Aqua's face!"
Huihui exclaimed.
Darkness was helpless.
“Really… Didn’t Huihui tell us to be careful of aquatic monsters? We don’t know where they are hiding, so don’t be careless.”
"Oooooh! Ngh!"
This is the consequence of being too proud of oneself.
The smile did not disappear, but moved to someone else's face.
When the squid on Kobayashi's head was pulled off, Aqua was still screaming in pain, and several strands of her hair were pulled out.
After that she choked and cried.
After a long time, they were finally able to take the squid down and continued to move deeper into the temple.
Then they came across something strange.
Chris looked at the building under the wall in front of him and asked curiously, "What is this? It looks like an altar..."
"There's a hole in the base. It could be a trap, so better not touch it!"
Darkness warned.
Chris said, "Well, it doesn't feel like anything is going to fly out. Can you stick something in there?"
"I see, this is the mechanism..."
"If you find anything you can insert, come back and have a look!"
After this discussion, they continued on their way.
When they arrived at a side hall.
This side hall was still submerged in lake water, but the road under their feet was above the water. There was clear lake water on both sides, and they could see the bottom.
Chris suddenly said, "Ah, Xiaolin, wait a moment."
"Hmm? What's up, Chris?"
Kobayashi turned his head and saw the silver-haired thief running in a certain direction.
"Hey, where are you going?"
"Hey, I found something good! Wait a moment!"
After saying that, Chris jumped into the water without hesitation.
"Ah! She jumped!"
"Hey, are you okay?"
What if there are monsters...
Xiaolin scratched his head in distress.
He looked at Liu Zi and said, "Please, go down and help..."
"Ah, I'm back!"
Before Liu Zi nodded in agreement, Chris swam back from underwater.
What a fast speed!
By the way, did she really drop a level, or did she know how to swim in the first place?
"……ha!"
Chris surfaced from the bottom of the water.
Xiao Lin quickly stepped forward, stretched out his hand and led her out of the lake, and asked with concern: "Chris, are you okay? You jumped in suddenly and scared me."
"Sorry for scaring you."
Chris took his hand and went up the steps again.
Huihui looked at the wet silver-haired thief and asked curiously, "Do you mind?"
Get yourself soaked, and you're a girl.
Even if you can't see her breasts, you shouldn't be so impulsive.
Chris shook his head.
"No, the water is very clean! When I dived in, it was cool and comfortable! Look! There is something glowing in the water, and I was wondering what it could be."
She showed the items in her hand to everyone.
This is a short sword.
It is made entirely of silver and is carved with exquisite patterns. There is a light blue gem on the scabbard, and the same gem appears on both sides of the hilt.
It is a very exquisite dagger.
After taking a closer look, Darkness asked uncertainly, “Is this… a dagger used in rituals?”
"Wow, so beautiful..."
Eyes full of joy.
She seems to prefer using weapons like daggers.
Chris nodded and said, "It's probably a decoration in the temple. It's a little dirty, but it should be clean if you just wipe it."
"Oh, you're really lucky to have noticed it. I don't think most people would notice it in the water."
Aqua was slightly surprised.
Chris blinked and said playfully, "Well, a thief wouldn't leave anything valuable behind."
dagger……
I feel like we just talked about this.
Could it be related to the altar we just passed by?
"Here, give it to you, Xiaolin."
Chris threw the dagger over, and because it happened so suddenly, Kobayashi was a little flustered.
"Eh?"
"This way, I should have more money. It should be enough to buy stronger equipment."
"No, it is... Can I have it?"
"I'm also a member of this team now, so I have to help you. Besides, if you don't work hard, you won't be able to level up. I'm looking forward to you, Captain!"
She patted Xiaolin's shoulder.
To be honest, I'm very touched.
If he had a reliable partner like Chris, Krillin might have defeated the Demon King long ago and successfully passed through this different world.
Why should we continue to be so miserable as we are now?
I really am...
After searching in the side hall for a long time and finding no Water Magic Stone, everyone returned the same way.
I saw the altar in the corner again.
Chris was slightly stunned, and pointed at the altar and said, "Can't the dagger just now be inserted here?"
"Okay, give it a try."
Xiaolin inserted the dagger into it.
The next second, the ground shook.
The temple began to shake, a rumbling sound came into their ears, and the bodies of several people began to sway.
"Wow ah ah!"
Chris couldn't stand steadily and hugged Xiaolin beside him.
Soon, the stone wall next to the altar rose.
Youyou looked at the exposed passage and said in surprise: "A hidden secret passage?"
"We've found a hidden passage. Now we can move on. Thank you, Chris." Kobayashi thanked her with a smile.
"Hey, it's great to be of use."
Chris scratched the scar on his cheek.
We have searched the entire perimeter of the temple, but haven't seen any water magic stone. Now that a new hidden passage has appeared, how can we not explore it?
He walked inside without any hesitation.
I have to say, there are really a lot of squids.
They appeared in every corner of the secret passage. If you have trypophobia, you will be scared to death. Xiaolin thought about the scene that had just been played on him and felt a little resistant.
"I say, Xiaolin!"
The stupid goddess couldn't help but complain loudly: "There are so many squids in my temple, I feel disgusted!"
"Don't tell me!"
Xiaolin twitched the corner of his mouth.
He had already sunk into the water, what else could he do?
“By the way, I can’t accept that my temple has sunk.” Aqua puffed her lips and complained, “Thanks to this, there are all these slimy creatures… toads, squids, and all these creatures.”
Indeed, Xiaolin was also quite curious.
"It's a magnificent temple. I wonder why it sank. It seems that it was turned into a maze a long time ago."
“Wow, it’s turned into a slimy monster’s lair. What’s going on…?”
Aqua couldn't accept it either.
For someone like her who cares so much about her temple and believers, it would be strange for her to laugh when she sees her temple become like this.
"Krillin! Aqua!"
Hui Hui yelled at the two of them, "Come over here for a moment!"
Oh, I seem to have discovered something.
Xiaolin raised his leg and walked towards her.
Aqua immediately yelled, "Ah, wait, don't leave me!"
----
Come to the next room.
Huihui and the others were standing at the door of the room, and Xiaolin walked over and looked inside.
"this is……"
"This big room is full of water. The rubble is blocking the water. And it looks like there's no way forward. This must be the end."
Darkness said this after looking around.
Although the terrain is vulnerable to monster attacks, if there are repair materials, I feel that this is the only place to consider.
"The repair material Mr. Rafe mentioned is the magic stone that controls water, right?"
"Meihui, is there any reaction from the detector?"
"There was no response along the way."
Hearing Xiaolin's question, Huihui fiddled with the magic stone detector and gave a strange answer.
"So how's it going here?"
Xiao Lin looked at the large house filled with water and said, "As long as we can sense the magic of water, it should be fine."
"...There is indeed a reaction. But I don't know if it is the reaction of the magic stone."
I remembered.
Although there are detectors, researcher Rafe once said that if there is a huge amount of water magic power, it will also react.
"Then let's actually find it and confirm it. But how can we find it in a room full of water..."
Xiaolin was slightly distressed.
Aqua took the initiative to speak up: "In that case, the things I brought are just right."
"Just right? What is it?"
"When I decided to go to Alcanretia, I thought it might be of some use, so I brought everyone's! This is it!"
The stupid goddess took out a bunch of things like a magic trick.
Take a closer look——
"Is this... a swimsuit?"
"Yes! I prepared it because I thought it might be needed!"
What on earth did you imagine?
After all, we are here to complete a mission, not to play.
Huihui nodded and said, “Indeed, if I wear a swimsuit, I should be able to investigate in the water…”
"I'm a little embarrassed..."
Youyou's cheeks turned slightly red.
Xiaolin scratched his head and said, "What should we do with the monster? Even if the opponent is a squid, it can't win if it is attacked in the water, right?"
"If there really is a monster, it would have come out long ago. Besides, we still have Ryuzu here, right?" Aqua's words were well-reasoned and convincing.
Indeed, there will be no problem if Liu Zi is here.
The key is--
Darkness’ cheeks flushed as she muttered, “My swimsuit…was attacked by a squid…it’s all wet…”
Then, she also spoke righteously.
"Don't worry, if any monsters appear, leave them to me!"
"Oh perverted female knight, tell me what you were thinking just now."
"Hey, what are you talking about, Xiaolin? As a protector of my friends, I just said what was necessary. Hmm...!"
It's not good, it's really not good.
This guy is not trustworthy at all.
But as long as Liu Zi is here, there shouldn't be any problems.
"Anyway, let's look for the magic stone first."
"Then you have to change into your swimsuit. Okay, Xiaolin, go over there!"
"Yes Yes……"
Xiaolin sighed and was driven to the other corner.
Soon, they changed into their swimsuits.
Although I have seen them countless times, I have to say that these girls are really naturally beautiful and they always make my eyes light up.
The premise is not to consider their nature.
And Darkness in particular, I don’t know if this guy has undergone a secondary growth spurt recently, he has become more mature and attractive.
If this place wasn't quite suitable for the scene, Xiaolin might really do something.
But even so.
After being stared at like that, the perverted female knight also began to pant and squirm.
It seems that she is excited too.
Of course, Kobayashi didn't do anything afterwards, but changed into a swimsuit like them.
By the way, when did Aqua know her own size?
Forget it, it's not important.
After changing into their swimsuits, they began to search for the Water Magic Stone underwater.
