What kind of girl would travel to another world?

Chapter 13 Will there be light in the other world?

In the previous chapter, Yang Mingyi was looking for books in the library. Later, she actually found several books on sacred magic, all of which she borrowed and took back to her room. She could only use this most stupid method to find the spell, flipping through the books one by one, until she suddenly came across the "Identification Technique". She drank iced sweet fruit tea while flipping through a book with a purple cover. Whenever she saw words she didn't understand, she would mark them on a piece of white paper and ask the palace maid during the day. She flipped through the books like this until late at night, and fell asleep unknowingly.

When she woke up in the morning, she found herself slumped over her desk. Yawning, she slowly threw herself onto the bed, intending to sleep a little longer. Her room was in the area where the court mages lived, while You Jiahui's room was in the area where the palace guards lived. They lived in different buildings. The palace guards' building was near a smaller parade ground, while the palace mages' building was near a smaller courtyard.

It's worth noting that in addition to the Palace Guards, the capital also houses the City Defense Guards. These guards maintain camps on either side of the city, each with a larger parade ground. The division of the guards into Palace and City Defense is due to the fact that, while the palace is protected by the city, it is not located within it. The palace is located on a higher mountain, with three sides being too steep, leaving only one relatively flat area leading down. A city wall was built at the foot of the mountain to protect the approach to the palace. When the capital was attacked, troops stationed elsewhere would rush to its defense.

This day was five days after You Jiahui had visited Yang Mingyi. At this time, the shouts of the palace guards training could still be heard from the guard training ground.

You Jiahui came to the training ground as usual, and she was practicing the use of longswords and shields. Although the longswords here were all less than one meter long, they were indeed a bit too heavy compared to the daggers. Therefore, she preferred the daggers with blades less than half a meter, which were almost half the weight of the longswords. The Gaoren people are not only good at using longswords and wooden shields, but also good at riding horses. Therefore, shields are almost all made of wooden round shields, which are suitable for both horse battles and infantry battles. Although there are various weapons and protective equipment in the arsenal, the training in the training ground is still based on the skills that the Gaoren people are best at. In addition, since the palace guards also recruited half-elves as archers, there was also bow and arrow training in the training ground.

You Jiahui was practicing a forward charge with a shield and a forward thrust with a sword. She felt these two moves were the most effective against monsters. Her trainer had also taught her that the moment she blocked a blow with her shield, she should immediately turn it outwards to quickly absorb the impact while still striking the target. Just as You Jiahui was immersed in her practice, Yang Mingyi came to find her.

While chewing on a meat bun, Yang Mingyi said to her in a slurred voice, "Jiahui, why aren't you happy?"

You Jiahui glanced sideways, made a "tsk" sound, and sighed, "Finish your meal first, then talk, okay?"

After Yang Mingyi finished eating, she pointed at the palace guards practicing with giant swords and asked, "Why don't you practice with the two-handed giant swords? Look how cool they are! Like giant windmills!"

You Jiahui glanced sideways again, put down the sword and shield in her hands, and asked, "Do you think I can lift that?"

Yang Mingyi pointed at the training shield and said cheerfully, "Shields are pretty heavy, too. The one you use for training is lighter, right?"

You Jiahui retorted, "How can that be the same? A shield can save your life. Even a heavy shield can be used by placing it on the ground, just like you did that day."

Yang Mingyi recalled, "If we didn't have that shield, we'd be done fighting that big wild boar. You're right!"

You Jiahui said, "And I've also told the shop owner to make the shield lighter and smaller. I don't want to carry a heavy shield."

Yang Mingyi suddenly remembered and asked, "When are we going to pick up the protective gear and shield you ordered?"

You Jiahui: "It'll probably take a few days. The shop owner said two weeks." Then she looked closely at Yang Mingyi's cheeks and chin and said, "Mingyi, have you gained weight here?"

Yang Mingyi touched her face and chin and asked, "Is it that obvious?" Then she shook her hands and said, "Oh no! Who cares? There are no boys here anyway, only uncles and grandfathers. I'll just gain weight!"

You Jiahui glanced sideways again, unsure what to say. She was thinking something completely different. If fate forbade her from returning to her original world, then she wouldn't be content to be an unknown, ordinary person in this other world.

Yang Mingyi started talking about food and said, "It's a pity that there is no milk tea here, not even tea, only milk." As she spoke, she began to sigh, recalling the various delicious foods in her original world.

You Jiahui's lips curled up slightly, as if she was reminiscing about the past. It was good memories that brought warmth. Suddenly, she recalled something else and said, "Xiao Ping was the only one who didn't come into this world with us. Do you think she would?" It was obvious that she was hesitant to speak.

Yang Mingyi fell silent after hearing this, because they all knew it. If they hadn't come to this world, they would definitely be buried in the ruins, and it would be difficult to survive.

You Jiahui's eyes fell to the ground, and she said with some self-blame: "If we hadn't entered that building, we..." It was she who suggested entering that building in the first place, and as a result, they both encountered the building collapse and traveled to this strange world.

Yang Mingyi suddenly said soothingly, "Maybe she came here too, just not with us." She felt her words were forced, and she lowered her head silently. Neither of them spoke for a long time.

The sun was setting at this time. Yang Mingyi suddenly remembered that she had something else to talk to You Jiahui about, and said, "Oh, right! I suddenly know how to use 'healing skills'! Look!" She saw her hands emitting a faint, warm light towards You Jiahui.

Let’s continue talking about Qi Xinyang’s strategy for the dungeon located in the Weeping Blood Pit.

At this moment, she was examining a giant moth with its mouth gaping. She saw, "Species: Monster, Name: Giant Mouth Moth, Identification: High-Level Monster, Skill: Wind Magic." She thought to herself, "Wind magic, I'm so familiar with this." She was curious about what spell it was, but the "moth" and "giant mouth" in the name suggested some special ability.

Qi Xinyang then repeated his old trick, throwing another stone, hoping to test the giant moth's abilities. However, the giant moth simply flew to the wall to investigate, without casting any spells. It remained there for a long time, constantly turning and observing in different directions.

When the giant moth turned its back to her, Qi Xinyang immediately loaded her bow and drew her arrow, intending to shoot through it. She aimed at the moth's enormous abdomen, and with a "whoosh," the arrow flew straight out, piercing the moth's massive abdomen. She thought to herself, "Is it just the arrowhead that went in? It didn't penetrate, what a strong defense this is! I'm an expert archer, give me some face!"

After being attacked, the giant moth immediately turned towards Qi Xinyang. After it spotted Qi Xinyang, it immediately opened its bloody mouth and swooped down towards her.

Qi Xinyang immediately fired another arrow, which again penetrated but didn't penetrate. Seeing the giant moth already swooping down in front of her, she rolled to the side in time and fired another arrow before she could even get up.

At this moment, the giant moth suddenly cast a spell, which was her most common spell - Wind Walk. She thought to herself, "Oh! I'm more familiar with this. It's Wind Walk! Come on, let's have a competition." She immediately cast Wind Walk as well.

Then, the giant moth swooped down at Qi Xinyang at incredible speed, and just then, her Wind Walk technique was unleashed. Just as the giant moth charged towards her face, about to devour her, she ducked and rolled forward, dodging its "passionate kiss." However, the giant moth was incredibly fast, turning and catching up. As she ran, it pursued her, employing a "wingless escape" strategy.

Qi Xinyang thought, there's no way to stop, so she might as well run and fight. She kept running, creating distance, while simultaneously turning back and shooting arrows. This running and fighting cycle lasted for a full half minute, until the last arrow in her quiver was ejected, and her body slid forward several meters before she finally slammed on the brakes. The giant moth had stopped pursuing, its body riddled with arrows, like a ball of thorns.

She immediately released the Wind Walk spell. After she'd caught her breath and returned to normal, she saw the giant moth had already fallen to the ground, its body almost disintegrating. She thought to herself, "What a shame, a moth that can walk. We're all different, each with its own unique effects." Then she went back to what she always did after the Wind Walk spell.

She pointed in the direction where the monster had fallen and muttered, "How cool!", announcing her complete recovery. Then, with a flick of her cape, she continued forward. But then she remembered that her quiver was empty, and she immediately ran back to retrieve the arrows on the ground. After collecting the arrows that could still be used, she thought to herself, "This is over! This wave of consumption is too much. I only have ten arrows left. I hope I don't encounter another giant moth up ahead. At least let me see the final monster first." She had been forced to start over in other dungeons before because she had no usable arrows. For her, that experience was enough.

The passages Qi Xinyang took afterwards just happened to avoid the other giant-mouthed moths, which also preserved the opportunity to challenge the final monster. She finally arrived at the deepest part of the dungeon. Going further ahead was the cave of the final monster. She was hiding outside the cave and observing secretly. As she expected, there were only unique monsters here, and the final monster must be a giant monster like the poisonous fire spider in the Burning Cave. She thought to herself, "The Ten-sided Drilling Beast and the Six-eyed Demon Wolf are at most the size of an off-road vehicle, and this one is ridiculously large. Just like the poisonous fire spider, its size alone almost fills the entire cave. If a real fight breaks out, the space for dodging and moving around is really limited." Then she carefully looked for the weakness of the final monster, thinking, "Although the target is large, it will definitely not be killed if we don't hit its vital points. I only have ten arrows left, so I can only find its vital points and shoot it."

She thought about it for a long time and said to herself, "There's no other way. I'll just have to go for it like I did last time."

After making up her mind, she took out her Identification Eye and began to examine it. She saw, "Species: Monster, Name: Blood Fairy, Identification: Final Monster, Skill: Evil Magic." Having made up her mind, she began to worry again. "What is 'evil magic'? I've never seen it before. It must be related to 'cursed magic,' right?" She was partly right, as cursed magic was a derivative of evil magic. She then speculated, "With 'blood' in the name and evil magic, it must be blood-sucking." This time, she was completely right!

Although she guessed the most crucial point correctly, she didn't know what the most terrifying thing about this "Blood Fairy" was.

This day marked their fifty-fourth day in this other world. In the afternoon, Wei Qingping returned to the cave where she had previously stored her bag. The food Mioshemo had provided her with sufficient support these days. Mainly, since she began sleeping on the ground, she didn't feel hungry much. She walked through the forest at a normal pace. Even without a sleeping bag, she didn't sleep in a tree as usual, but simply lay face-down on the ground.

As for why this happened, besides having heard from Miosimo that there were no wild monsters in this country, she also heard about elemental blessings and elemental worship. Therefore, she suspected that sleeping with her face pressed to the ground was a form of worship of the earth element. She felt that by lying on the ground, she could both "fill" her stomach and worship the earth element. These days, she believed she had reached the pinnacle of piety.
