Chapter 88: Daisy Kingdom Joins the Plot Mission
Leina was the captain of the 'Sun Knights', the most powerful in the Daisy Kingdom, and she also led her subordinates to participate in the Goddess Festival last year.
Unfortunately, she fell short in the end. In the Monster Forest, they encountered an incomparably powerful monster, and in the end, they didn't even manage to land on the Lake Heart Island, let alone obtain the Golden Apple to sacrifice to the Goddess Aila.
In the end, the Golden Apple was obtained by a powerful spellcaster from the Rose Kingdom, and that spellcaster even received the honor of being personally received by the Goddess Aila.
Although the merciful Goddess also gave protection to the three kingdoms in the end, and the Daisy Queen didn't blame Leina, Leina still blamed herself for this.
This year's Goddess Festival protagonist, the Queen, still decided to trust Leina and continue to let Leina select the most powerful warriors from the 'Sun Knights' to participate in the Goddess Festival.
Unfortunately, heaven didn't fulfill people's wishes. Leina led the team and had just walked out of the city gate not far when she encountered a powerful mantis monster.
To say that this monster was so powerful that it was impossible to fight against it wouldn't be the case, but this guy could fly, and there were no many tall plants in the forest to block it, which caused the squad to fight particularly hard.
Plus, the flying monster was inherently a counter to Leina, who was an earth-type mage. Just when Leina thought she was going to die aggrievedly at the city gate, a strange four-person squad suddenly appeared and rescued her.
After Vivian split the giant mantis into two halves and it fell down, the warriors of the Sun Knights immediately surrounded and killed it.
Shield soldiers and long-spear warriors immediately restrained the mantis's two front limbs, and swordsmen and crossbow archers attacked the mantis's head one after another.
The movements were skilled and the speed was fast; clearly, the warriors had been trained for this for many years.
At the same time, Leina walked toward Vivian, who was standing with her hands on her hips and looking triumphant, accompanied by a swordsman.
"Powerful warrior! Leina Daisi represents the Sun Knights to pay tribute to you and your companions! Thank you very much for your help; you saved my life and saved the kingdom's reputation!"
After speaking, Leina and the swordsman beside her bowed to Vivian!
If Leina praised Vivian, Vivian would accept it very happily, but when Leina thanked her so politely with an aristocratic tone, she felt uncomfortable all over.
Vivian waved her hands quickly, saying "You're welcome" constantly, but her eyes kept sending signals for help toward Nie Yingying.
Nie Yingying shook her head and smiled; this guy really has a pure nature!
So she put away her dagger, stepped forward, put her right hand on her chest, returned the salute, and said.
"Hello, Miss Leina, we are the Holy Light Adventure Squad, very happy to be able to help you! You can call me Nie Yingying, and this guy is Vivian!"
Nie Yingying pointed to Vivian, who had already run over to pick up her great sword, and introduced her, then pointed to Agasha and Duanmu Xing who had followed up and introduced them.
"This is Agasha! This is Duanmu Xing! I believe Miss Leina also saw them make a move in the battle just now!"
The other party looked extraordinary, so Nie Yingying naturally had to show her side's powerful strength in the first time, and couldn't let others look down on them.
Agasha had already put her bow and arrow behind her, and Leina saw the staff in Duanmu Xing's hand at the first glance.
"I think it must be the powerful light-type magic used by this Miss Xing just now that saved my life! Thank you again!"
Leina's attitude was unexpectedly good, which of course also had to do with the fact that the other party had just saved her.
Just then, the people who were cleaning the battlefield also finished their work and walked over.
"Captain!"
The members of the Sun Knights handed a transparent crystal core to Leina, which was clearly obtained from that giant mantis.
Leina handed it to Nie Yingying without hesitation.
"Captain Nie Yingying, I don't know what plans your adventure squad has next?"
That big mantis was almost killed by Vivian alone, so Nie Yingying naturally couldn't push the spoils away, not to mention that Duanmu Xing had saved the other party's captain.
Taking the transparent diamond-shaped crystal core, Nie Yingying felt that this team should be related to the plot mission, so she simply answered along with the other party's words.
"We are a team that has just finished honing our coordination, and we are currently looking for a suitable mission!"
Sure enough, Leina was excited when she heard Nie Yingying's words, and she looked at Nie Yingying with anticipation.
"Miss Nie, you and your team members are all powerful experts. I don't know if you are willing to join our Daisy Kingdom's 'Goddess Festival' team?"
The words Daisy Kingdom and Goddess Festival immediately confirmed to Nie Yingying that the team in front of her was the key team for the plot mission.
The previous announcement was 'Rose Kingdom', and now the one in front is 'Daisy Kingdom'. Although she didn't know how many kingdoms were participating in that 'Goddess Festival', she finally ran into one.
"Goddess Festival? Your Daisy Kingdom's team going to seize the Golden Apple?"
Regarding the advanced mission, it's better to ask clearly.
Nie Yingying clearly remembered that the announcement mentioned 'Goddess's Golden Apple'!
"Yes, Miss Nie! We are the Daisy Kingdom's team! The Queen personally appointed our 'Sun Knights' to complete this year's Goddess Festival mission!"
Leina finished speaking and looked at Nie Yingying with hope again.
This adventure squad's strength is so powerful; as long as she can get them to join the team, they will definitely be able to defeat the Rose Kingdom this year and obtain the Golden Apple to offer to the Goddess Aila!
Agasha and the others beside her naturally also knew that they had run into a plot mission, and they all looked at Nie Yingying with smiles.
It was just that they didn't interrupt, but instead trusted Nie Yingying very much and let her make the decision.
Even the carefree Vivian stood aside quietly, but the eagerness on her face couldn't be hidden from anyone.
Nodding, Nie Yingying agreed.
"My teammates and I are all very willing to contribute to the Goddess!"
As soon as Nie Yingying finished speaking, joy appeared on everyone's faces.
The members of the Sun Knights had already seen the combat effectiveness of Nie Yingying and the four, and having them join was a good thing whether it was for the guarantee of the mission or the guarantee of their own lives.
And the travelers were naturally happy that the advanced mission was on the right track.
Especially Vivian, who had already started hooking shoulders and laughing with the two shield warriors of the Sun Knights.
Because Vivian showed off her flying sword killing giant monsters as soon as she appeared, everyone felt that she was a great expert and was very willing to get close to her.
"The Daisy Kingdom team has officially joined the plot 'Goddess's Golden Apple' mission!"
Hearing the sound coming from her ear, Nie Yingying and the four looked at each other and all smiled! ===== CHAPTER 89 =====
