Chapter 1598 Setting Out Again After Rest

"Alright, I'll go ahead and wait outside."

Ye Qiu shouted out the window and walked out. Qiuya sat next to him, smoking a mint pipe and staring at the sky. Suddenly, a fairy slipped out of Ye Qiu's chest pocket, startling her.

"Wow! You... even if your master logs you out, you can still move?"

Receiving Dong's without a doubt expression, Dong put her small hands on her waist and nodded.

"Of course... because I am me. He is not my master, but a father."

"Come back... why do you call Ye Qiu dad? Could it be that... he arranged it this way?"

"...Because Ye Qiu saved me, he told me that Dong is his child, so Ye Qiu is my dad."

"Yes, that's how it is..."

Ye Zhi didn't actually know what was happening.

"Do you like Ye Qiu?"

Qiuya casually asked this question, and Dong suddenly turned her head seriously and said:

"Miss Qiuya... what does it feel like to like someone?"

"What, how does it feel..."

Qiuya couldn't help being ambiguous, and before she answered this question, she thought for a moment.

"It should be wanting to be with him all the time, feeling your heart beat faster when you are with him, maybe that's my feeling..."

She had a certain human-like smile inside—somehow, closing her eyes, crouching on the ground, her side face overlapping with a human-like smile, causing Qiuya to be breathless with fright.

She had forgotten when, she also deeply felt her brother's love for her, making Qiuya shake her head in despair. Seeing this, Dong, she asked in surprise:

"Miss Qiuya, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing!"

Qiuya couldn't help but shout out, just at this moment.—

"What's the matter?"

"Wow!"

Ye Qiu suddenly looked up, making Qiuya jump.

"I'm back, what's going on?"

Ye Qiu showed a puzzled expression towards Qiuya's situation, then got up from standby position, and finally Dong, standing on his shoulder, said:

"Welcome back, Ye Qiu. Dong was just talking to Miss Qiuya. We were discussing about liking..."

"Wow, it's nothing!"

Qiuya also stood up, as her hurried speech interrupted Dong.

"Back so soon. Have you eaten enough?"

In order to cover her shyness, Ye Zhi asked this question, smiling and nodding.

"Yes, my family helped me place it on the table."

"Alright, let's leave here. It's impossible to leave this mining city before midnight. Come on, let's fly a bit more until you reach the entrance of the cave!"

Seeing her fast talking pace, Ye Qiu and Dong found it odd, but Qiuya ignored them, still spreading her wings, starting to gently sway.

"Okay, very well. Then let's go."

Ye Qiu still seemed suspicious, yet he spread his wings behind his back—but suddenly turned around, looking at the forest they just flew over.

"...? What is it?"

"No..."

After Qiuya asked, Ye Qiu suddenly stared seriously at the sinister forest.

"I just feel like someone is watching us... Dong, are there any other players around us?"

"No, there's no reaction."

The Little Fairy shook her head, but Ye Qiu still couldn't accept it.

"You say someone is watching us... is there really something like a sixth sense in this world?"

When Ye Qiu heard Qiuya's question, he touched his chin with his right hand and answered:

"...Don't underestimate this feeling, for example, when someone is looking at Ye Qiu Ren, the system will 'reference' it, so that information is transmitted to that person. People say this feeling is the brain's reference current..."

"Yes, yes..."

"But if Dong can't see them, then no one should be there..."

"Alright, maybe there's an explorer following us..."

After Qiuya whispered, Ye Qiu raised an eyebrow and said:

"What is that?"

"It's tracking magic. Typically it appears like a small animal, telling the operator where to search for the target."

"That's really convenient. Can't the magic be removed?"

"If you can find a searcher, you can remove it, but if the caster's magic skill is very high, the distance between the target and the searcher can be very far. In such an area, it's almost impossible to find a searcher."

"Alright... maybe it's just my illusion... we should move on first!"

"Yeah."

After Qiuya and Ye Qiu nodded at each other, they kicked off the ground flying up, the white mountains in front of them appeared like a cliff. In the middle, a gigantic cave opened its dark mouth to the two, and Qiuya energetically flapped her wings, speeding towards that foreboding chilly cave.

After a few minutes of flying, the two and a goblin reached the cave's entrance.

In the middle of a nearly vertical rock, there was a rectangular hole, like a gigantic chisel, either in width or height, being three to four times the size of Qiuya's autumn elegance. It was invisible from afar, but only when they got closer did they notice the terrifying beast sculptures around the entrance, and a demon's head larger than other statues in the upper middle, gazing at the intruders.

"Does this cave have a name?"

After Ye Qiu asked, Qiuya nodded in response:

"It's indeed called the Lugulu Corridor. Lugulu is the name of this mining city."

"That's it. Ye Qiu suddenly recalled... a fantasy movie where there was a similar story..."

Qiuya gazed from the side at Ye Qiu's smiling face, he seemed to be referring to the three masterpieces that adapted classic fantasy novels into films, and in his brother's room, there were a boxed collection released a few years ago, which Ye Zhi took out, reading alone.

"...I know which movie you're talking about, it was about going over the mountain, entering an underground mine, and being attacked by a big demon, right? Unfortunately, there will be no demon here."

"What a pity."

"Ah, but it might look like a half-beastman. If you expect it, you'll have to defeat it!"

After Qiuya spoke, she turned her face aside, heading straight for the cave.

The cave was very cool, and the light from outside quickly dimmed, the surrounding places started to be enveloped in darkness, Qiuya raised her hand to magically illuminate, but suddenly he looked at Ye Qiu beside him, as if he remembered something.

"By the way, are you increasing your magic skills?"

"Ah, now I can only use the Basic Magic set at the beginning, and I don't use it much either."

"Caves are terrains where Shadow Elves excel. There should be better magic than magic beams and Wind Magic."

"Hmm, Dong, do you know?"

After scratching his head, Dong poked her head out of the chest pocket like a teacher in school.
