Chapter 1580 - 1576: Fire Elf

"Wugu!"

Of course, there was no pain or burning sensation, but it felt as if someone forcefully pushed her from behind, causing her to lose her balance. Thankfully, she had already unfolded the wind attribute defense magic to escape, so her HP value was still adequate, but the Wind Elf territory was still quite far away.

In addition, Qiuya also noticed her acceleration had begun to slow down. It was that annoying air stall restriction again. In just a few more seconds, her wings would lose strength, rendering her unable to continue flying.

"Wuwu..."

Qiuya gritted her teeth and started a full-speed dive to escape into the Sea of Trees. There was a mage among the enemies, so hiding with magic wouldn't work, but passively waiting for death did not suit her personality.

She rushed into the gaps between the treetops, penetrating several layers of branches, finally getting closer and closer to the ground. As she descended, her speed gradually slowed down.

Eventually, she spotted a clearing ahead where the grass grew quite lush, so she quickly prepared to land there, using her shoe soles to slow down while rushing to hide behind a large tree. Then, she immediately raised her hands to start casting invisibility magic.

In Fairy Fantasy, using magic requires actually chanting the "spell" aloud like in fantasy movies. The system requires a certain volume and clear pronunciation to recognize the casting, and if interrupted midway, the magic will fail, necessitating a complete re-chant.

Once she finished chanting the memorized spell at the fastest speed, a pale green airflow rose from her feet and enveloped Qiuya's body.

This way, the enemy's line of sight could no longer see her figure. But if the opponent used high-level enemy search skills or revealing magic, they could break through it. Qiuya held her breath and curled her body tightly.

Shortly afterward, several distinctive heavy flying sounds of Fire Elves came over, sounding like they were landing at the clearing behind her. First, the overlapping sound of metal armor clashing, then a low shout followed.

"No, Wind Elves are naturally good at hiding. Let's use magic instead."

After saying this, the heavy voice began chanting. Qiuya wanted to curse out loud but quickly closed her mouth. A few seconds later—the rustling sound on the grass behind her got closer and closer.

Several small shadows crawled over from the roots of the giant trees towards her, and a glance revealed lizards with red skin and eyes. This was the fire attribute revealing magic. Dozens of searchers were launched in a radiating spread, and if they encountered a player or monster in invisibility, they would immediately ignite to show the enemy's hiding spot.

——Don't come over, go over there!

The lizard's direction of advance was randomly determined, so Qiuya could only watch those little reptiles and desperately wish they wouldn't come her way. But ultimately, her hopes were dashed. One lizard touched the membrane surrounding Qiuya. It emitted a sharp cry and then began to burn.

"Found! Right there!"

The sound of metal armor seemed to get closer. With no other options, Qiuya dashed out from the shadow of the tree. She rolled and stood up, drawing her longsword and assuming a battle stance. At this moment, three Fire Elves stopped and pointed their spears at Qiuya.

"Made us waste so much time for nothing!"

The man on the far right lifted the armor on his helmet and said excitedly.

Standing in the center, the one who looked like the captain, spoke calmly:

"Sorry, but we're just carrying out a mission as well. Don't blame me; if you leave money and items, we'll let you go."

"What's the matter, let's get on with it! Haven't met a female opponent in a while!"

This time the man on the left lifted his helmet and said. He looked at Qiuya with an eye full of violent and obsessive intent.

From a year's gaming experience, it's known that many such individuals show abnormal eagerness to "hunt female players".

Qiuya realized that disgust had caused goosebumps to rise on her skin. If people constantly utter foul words or touch a female player's body outside of combat, it can immediately be reported as sexual harassment.

But mutual slaughter is the goal of the game, so there are no restrictions.

Some people even spread rumors online saying killing female players brings supreme pleasure.

Even in a normally operated Fairy Fantasy, such situations occurred. Now, thinking about the legendary "that game" internally... Just the thought sent a chill down Qiuya's spine.

Qiuya steadied her legs on the ground, raised her beloved two-handed sword above her head, ready for battle. She then glared fiercely at the Fire Elves.

"Ye Qiu would drag someone down with him even in death. Those who fear losing experience, come forward."

After she finished saying this softly, the Fire Elves on both sides excitedly made strange noises and swung their spears. The captain stopped them with his hand while saying:

"Give it up, your wings are at their limit, right? We can still fly."

He was indeed right. In Fairy Fantasy, facing an aerial attack from the enemy while on the ground was extremely disadvantageous. Moreover, it was one versus three now. Still, Qiuya refused to give up. For her, surrendering money and begging was absolutely impossible.

"Such a stubborn girl. Can't be helped."

The captain shrugged his shoulders, readied his spear, and floated with the sound of wings. The Fire Elves on the left and right also gripped their joysticks with their left hands and ascended with the captain.

Qiuya channeled strength into her arms, preparing to be pierced by three spears simultaneously but determined to make the foremost enemy taste her full strength attack. Surrounded by enemies from three directions—just as they were about to charge...

The bushes behind suddenly shook a few times, and a black figure jumped out from it. The figure passed directly by the Fire Elves, spun in a cone shape in the air a few times, and crashed onto the grass with a loud noise.

Everyone stared at the intruder in surprise.

"Oww, so painful... Seems landing is my weakness..."

A male player with light black skin stood up with a voice utterly relaxed.

He had a hedgehog-like fierce hairstyle and slightly upward-tilted large eyes, giving off a troublemaking vibe. The black transparent wings extending from his back showed his race was a Shadow Elf.

Though Qiuya wondered what a Shadow Elf from the distant East was doing here, after checking his equipment, she began to doubt if she had seen wrong.
