Origin Legend: Heroic Hymn

"Rita, I'll go over and take a look. Be careful."

"Okay, be careful!"

Ling Feng drew out his two-handed sword, with the blade facing left and rearward, ready to swing at any time, and slowly approached the strange leaf.

The leaf seemed to tremble a little when seeing this scary scene, and then returned to normal.

Just when Ling Feng was still 5 steps away from Ye Zi, Ye Zi moved and began to flee from Ling Feng, and very quickly! They had heard about this way of running away, which was the behavior pattern of walking ginseng that Lily told them.

"Rita! Found it! It's a walking ginseng! Quick! Let's surround it and don't let it run away!"

Rita took action immediately after hearing Ling Feng's call, casting speed-adding magic on the two of them, and their bodies suddenly felt lighter.

Ling Feng spotted the location of the walking ginseng and went around to the front of its escape route.

The walking ginseng changed direction without saying a word, and this time Rita appeared in front of it.

They kept blocking him from all directions, and soon he was trapped in the middle by the two men, only 3 steps away from them.

The appearance of the walking ginseng also appeared in front of the two people: there was a big leaf on its head, and its appearance was like a human and ginseng, but it was not as tall as a human, about 50 cm in height. The roots at the bottom were divided into two large strips, which should be considered the feet of the walking ginseng.

Zou Lu Shen found himself surrounded and looked around for a way to escape.

How could Ling Feng give him time to think? He immediately shortened the distance between him and the walking ginseng. Of course, Rita did the same.

Ling Feng pounced on Zou Lu Shen. Zou Lu Shen lowered his body, and the leaves on his head fell right on the bottom of Ling Feng's feet when he was about to land.

Ling Feng wanted to stop when he saw this, but it was too late. His feet had already stepped on the smooth leaves, and his feet had lost friction and began to slip. They could no longer support Ling Feng's body.

Ling Feng's body flew forward due to inertia, and the direction he flew was Rita right in front of him.

Ling Feng unconsciously stretched out his hands and hugged Rita, and Rita instinctively tried to use her arms to support Ling Feng's unbalanced body.

But it was of no avail. As a newly novice enchanter, the girl didn't have that much strength and her body was knocked away by Ling Feng's flying body.

At the moment of landing, Ling Feng flipped his position with Rita, which made Ling Feng's body land first.

Because Rita was held tightly by Ling Feng, she did not fly out, and her body fell on Ling Feng's body and did not touch the ground. As for the Walking Ginseng, it proudly shook off its leaves and took the opportunity to escape.

"Ling Feng, are you okay?"

Rita's first reaction was to ask if Ling Feng, who fell directly to the ground, was injured.

"I, I'm fine. Damn, I got fooled! Rita, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine too. The walking ginseng shouldn't have gotten far, let's go after it!"

Ling Feng let go of Rita, and after Rita stood up, Ling Feng also stood up.

"Ling Feng, let's search separately. When we catch or find them, we can use this to notify each other!"

Ling Feng took the red stone from Rita.

"This is a sensing stone. If you drop this stone on the ground, the person who has another stone that matches it can sense the other person's specific location and the location of the stone!"

"Okay, Rita, no matter what happens, just call me when you need my help, and I will come as soon as possible!"

"Well, let's get going quickly! Otherwise Lu Shen will run far away and hide!"

"Then I'll go this way."

Ling Feng left this sentence and disappeared into the woods. Rita also began to search for the whereabouts of the walking ginseng.

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

Ling Feng found traces of walking ginseng on the roadside. Although they were not obvious, it could be seen that it was left by something about 50 cm long passing by quickly.

Ling Feng followed the traces, lowered the sound of his footsteps, and began to search for the whereabouts of the walking ginseng.

The trace he had been following disappeared at the river bank, and the magic Rita had cast was almost losing its effectiveness.

Ling Feng used his eyesight to quickly scan the area. He found a familiar figure in the grass near the river in the distance - the leaf that had caused him to fall just now!

"Looks like I have to use some brute force, or that guy will run away again!"

Ling Feng drew out his two-handed sword and activated his skill. With a flash of light, the bushes on the river bank instantly burst into high-intensity light that blocked vision.

The ginseng walking in the bushes felt dizzy due to the sudden bright light and loud noise, and staggered out of the bushes.

Ling Feng then quickly approached and launched a new magic pursuit - Explosive Slash!

The two-handed sword in his hand burst into flames and smashed towards the walking ginseng.

The side of Ling Feng's sword hit Lu Zou Shen's body with high temperature, and Lu Zou Shen collapsed to the ground with powerless body.

The reason why he used the side instead of the blade was mainly because he didn't know whether the client wanted to walk around alive, so he didn't cut him off.

The walking ginseng that fell to the ground was tied up slowly by Ling Feng and stuffed into his backpack.

Just at the place where the ginseng fell, a sudden blue-green flash attracted Ling Feng's attention. He squatted down and pushed away the sand and gravel on the side. Six blue-green transparent stones appeared in front of Ling Feng.

Ling Feng picked up a stone and admired it in the sunlight.

"It's so beautiful! Rita will probably like it. Let's take it back and give it to her!"

As he spoke, Ling Feng picked up the remaining five identical stones on the ground and put them into the bag on the side of his backpack.

"Okay, that's it, mission accomplished. Hehe, I have to inform Rita right away to make her happy too."

Just as Ling Feng reached into his pocket and was about to take out the sensor stone, Rita's sensor stone sent a signal!

Ling Feng was frightened by the sudden signal. The walking ginseng he was about to chase was in his backpack, so it was impossible for Rita to have discovered the target.

Ling Feng was puzzled for a moment, and suddenly remembered what Lily had said to her in the morning. She realized that something was wrong, and immediately ran towards the direction of the sensation as fast as she could.

◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇◆◇

Rita, who was acting separately from Ling Feng, walked in the woods vigilantly, holding the magic wand tightly in one hand and the sensor stone tightly in the other.

She had known that she would be scared, even scared to tears. After all, this was a forest with monsters, and she had no means of attack.

The reason why she proposed to act separately was mainly because this was her first mission with Ling Feng. She didn't want to hold Ling Feng back, and she didn't want the walking ginseng that was right in front of her to run away and be impossible to find because of her.

"Woo~ Lingfeng, please... hurry up and catch it!"

Rita felt like she was about to cry, and she even wanted to use the induction stone to call Ling Feng back to her. But she held back, gritting her teeth and silently told herself in her heart.

"It's okay, it's okay, Rita, you can still hold on! You haven't reached your limit yet, just bear with it for one more minute, one more minute, just one more minute!"

Rita's tears flowed down as she suppressed the fear in her heart. When she sensed any movement, her body would unconsciously turn in that direction. Her highly concentrated attention also made her feel mentally tired faster.

Perhaps it was mocking Rita's efforts, the thing that should not appear at this time appeared in front of Rita.

It has a green skin and wears tattered white clothes. It breathes hard through its big nose, has a big mouth with four sharp teeth showing, and has big eyes that roll around. There is a tuft of red hair on its head. It is not tall, only about one meter.

It held a spiked mace in its hand and grinned when it saw Rita.

"Ah! Goblin! No, don't come over here!"
