When Emma shouted from afar to alert Qin Ruo, he instantly felt all the hair over his whole body freeze and stand on end!
‘There is a Bandit here! Damn it! There were other players here in such a secluded and small area? Not to mention it's a player from the Demon Faction!
‘I can't believe that I would make such a deadly mistake.'
The moment that Frost Barrier and Darkfrost Shield was broken, Qin Ruo prepared himself for a live or die situation and charged with all his might which demonstrated his calm and quick thinking in the midst of peril danger.
“Freeze!”
He positioned the Aquarampart that he used to weaken the Darkfiend Wolf's magic before him and immediately froze it.
But no matter how fast he could cast his spell, he was still slower than a Bandit who was armed and ready. With a grim laugh, the bone-chilling dagger pierced through the wind aiming toward Qin Ruo's back like a venomous snake and it instantly entered his body!
Maybe it was because of the strength had Qin Ruo shown or it could also have been the cautious nature of the Bandit which made him attacked with his full force without holding back.
Even if it was against a Level 41 Elementalist who has his defensive magic disabled, he immediately used his Tier 4 Bandit skill—N Slash!
A two consecutive hit landed!
As the dagger moves with lightning speed, it formed an N-shaped stroke which deeply slashed Qin Ruo's back. An attack of this degree should be sufficient to take out an Elementalist.
It was undeniable that the Bandit who had stayed hidden and waited to grasp the perfect timing to make his move. There were only two Darkfiend Wolves remaining and it was weakened to the brink of death but it was enough to pin down Poochie who has exceptional agility and attack. And on from afar the other Ignis Swordmaster from the Angel Faction was struggling with three other Darkfiend Wolves and was unable to rush to Qin Ruo's rescue. As long as he could instantly take out Qin Ruo, his Pet would also disappear.
Unfortunately, the bandit underestimated the number of health points that Qin Ruo had.
Even with his strongest attack taking out more than eight hundred HP was still unable to instantly kill Qin Ruo. Next, Qin Ruo endured the excruciating pain and shouted his command.
“Explode!!!”
The Frostrampart that was just formed by Qin Ruo instantly exploded! A strong burst of hail instantly blasted away the Bandit who was going to attack again.
At that split second, Poochie who had just knocked out the last Darkfiend Wolf shrieked with rage as it dashed into the midst of the snow storm.
“Aaaah!”
A scream could be heard from within the snow.
Next, the system notification prompted:
Poochie attacked the target dealing 209 points of damage toward the Demon Faction player!
Stun effect was inflicted for a duration of 3 seconds!
Poochie attacked the target dealing 328 points of damage!
Laceration effect has been inflicted! Dealing 35 points of damage per second for a duration of 10 seconds!
Poochie attacked the target dealing 201 points of damage
The target is dead!
“You have earned one Honor Point from killing a player from the Demon Faction!
Because of your wanted status, 1 Infamy Points is reduced, wanted duration will be reduced to 6 hours and 51 minutes! Devil status removed, current status is Villain!
The system notifications prompted consecutively and were blasted into Qin Ruo's ear who was currently in weakened. When Qin Ruo heard the news that he had earned 1 Honor Point and 3 hours of wanted duration was reduced, it felt he had risen to heaven from hell.
It was a blessing in disguise!
After quickly casting Aquaheal on himself, Qin Ruo quickly ordered Poochie to ignore the corpse of the player from the Demon Faction and go after the last Darkfiend Wolf that had was weakened to avoid any more uncertainties from arising.
After taking care of the Darkfiend Wolf over here, Emma who was struggling to hold down the fort and not get killed could finally take a breather. With Poochie's help, she easily killed the last three Darkfiend Wolves that was besieging her.
To let Qin Ruo be at ease, Emma sheathed her long sword and went over to him.
“Thank you.”
Qin Ruo nodded and accepted her gratitude.
Qin Ruo actually regretted saving her when he was looking at the corpse of the Bandit because he placed himself in a dire situation and almost died trying to help her. Thus, he felt that he deserved Emma's gratitude.
Qin Ruo did not mention another word and sat down to meditate after collecting the Bandit's equipment. Since he had lost quite a lot of MP during the last battle, he had to quickly recover his MP and not waste his precious MP potions.
Emma who had just escaped from danger was feeling not bad as she also sat down. Her sparkling blue eyes were focused on the cute little pet which was as small as a squirrel, wanting to get closer and pet him. But since Qin Ruo was around, she tried her best to hold herself from doing so.
Even though Qin Ruo had rescued her and made a good impression on her, but Qin Ruo who was meditating still had a red glow over his body. Since she was still in a state of shock, his entire body which was filled a bloody glow that red-tagged players had and coupled with his cold and grim attitude made it seem to her like he was not somebody that is easy to get along with.
But all of the above reasons are trivial since the main reason Emma is sitting down quietly and waiting for Qin Ruo to finish meditating was because of the incredible strength that Qin Ruo had just displayed.
Although he was just Level 41 Aquamancer and his equipment was not exceptionally good since he was still using two Violet equipment, during the battle just now not only did he display exceptional fighting prowess, he had also fought like a true master with a cool-head even in the midst of danger. Furthermore, he was a solo player who has no Clan or Party that has successfully hatched a pet monster!
She had also witnessed firsthand Poochie's abilities.
Which she could only describe as cute but deadly!
It was now resting on Qin Ruo's shoulder like a cute and naughty little squirrel who seemed like he could be lured with seeds. But Emma did not forget that just a moment ago, this little guy was able to send a Darkfiend Wolf flying with his small stature which is several times larger and also 17 levels higher than him.
After witnessing its incredible speed and explosive strength, she did not dare to touch the little guy's head and its fluffy tail.
After two minutes of silence had passed, Qin Ruo was able to recover his MP fully and opened his eyes looking at Emma who was sitting beside him waiting patiently and nervously.
After noticing Qin Ruo approaching her, Emma puts out her hand and greeted him gracefully.
“Let me introduce myself again, my name is Emma, Canadian, Level 46 Ignis Swordmaster, nice to meet you.”
“Qin Ruo, I'm from China.”
Qin Ruo nodded as he shook her hand, after receiving the information that she had shared with him, with a simple reply his information was also shared with the other player, saving his effort to tell her himself.
Although Qin Ruo did not seem friendly and could even be said to be apathetic, Emma was not bothered at all as she thought to herself that this was probably due to the pride and manner of a true champion.
She never doubted Qin Ruo's abilities, a pet who could easily take on an elite Tier 4 monster while it was only Tier 3 would definitely be above a regular Boss monster. Not even fifty pets of this caliber had been revealed or shown on the website.
Emma thought very highly of Qin Ruo as a mysterious lone champion, a kind-hearted red-tagged champion. After greeting each other, she asked him in a straightforward manner.
“Uh, did you save me because you wanted to party with me and wander together in the Graveyard of the God?”
Qin Ruo looked at her in the eyes and thought that girls from foreign countries were so straightforward, but she had guessed correctly.
After looking around him at the majestic forest filled with big and tall trees where you could never see the end, Qin Ruo closed his eyes and a fluctuation of elements could be faintly seen spreading from beneath his feet.
Emma was shocked when she noticed the sudden peculiar fluctuation of elements but she remained calm and did not speak a word because she knew fully well that Qin Ruo could have easily killed her if he wanted to.
Two seconds later, Qin Ruo opened his eyes after confirming that there was nobody else hiding around nearby.
He stood up and said to Emma.
“Since I am currently red-tagged, it would be inconvenient for you to follow me. You should look for other players to party with after leaving this area.”
“Its okay, I don't mind at all! Since you have such a strong pet, even if we meet other Angel Faction players, they wouldn't dare fight against you!” said Emma.
“….”
Qin Ruo furrowed his brow because he wanted to tell Emma that she would just be a burden to him. But to protect the girl's pride, he could only choose to tell her in an indirect manner.
“Alright since we have no idea if there would be other groups of monsters blocking the road, we will stay together for the meantime and decide after we have a better understanding of the situation in the Graveyard of the Gods.”
“Okay, it's a deal then!”
Emma excitedly agreed to it since she would be able to have an elite champion as a companion. Even if nothing much could be gained on the journey, but it should be not a problem to keep herself safe.
