Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

With a puff, purple liquid splashed out.

With a swish, a Tang Saber was drawn. The cold blade reflected mottled marks.

Another little monster fell.

One!

Two!

…

50!

Before Leng Yue could speak, Yan Xie, who was not far away, immediately started to act smug.

“Master, I’ve already completed 50 Kill Quests. Is it fast?”

Yan Xie skipped over to Su Meng, who was resting comfortably against the wall.

Hearing Yan Xie’s words, Leng Yue, who had just put away her Tang Saber, raised her eyebrows.

“Oh, are you sure?”

“How can I not be sure? Stinky Sister, but I returned to Master’s side before you did.”

Yan Xie flicked her hair indignantly, not giving Leng Yue any face. At this moment, a large hand raised, signaling the two of them to be quiet.

Seeing that their master was boasting, the two of them did not dare to say anything else.

He stood up and patted the dust off his body. Right on the heels of that, he took out a dagger and collected the red liquid from the little monster.

Su Meng calmly took out a glass bottle from the bag and carefully collected it.

Not long after, Su Meng shook the glass bottle in his hand. The red liquid swayed slightly, drawing a unique arc.

“Yan Xie, I have bad news for you. Leng Yue won this time.”

As soon as he said this, Yan Xie exploded in disbelief.

“I was the first to come to Master’s side. Why should you say that Sister won this time?”

At this point, Yan Xie’s mouth was pouting.

“Master, you’re biased!”

At first, Su Meng did not speak. He just shook the bottle in his hand.

“This time, Leng Yue killed a total of 52 little monsters. Who do you think won?”

Hearing this, Yan Xie’s eyes widened in disbelief.

“That’s impossible. I clearly—”

“Alright, stop fooling around. I have enough materials to make a sister for you. The two of you stay on guard.”

As soon as she said this, Yan Xie couldn’t care less about competing for favor and hurriedly agreed in unison with Leng Yue.

“Yes, Master.”

Su Meng nodded in satisfaction and took out the materials to make a shield. He was looking forward to this defensive shield.

Previously, the materials for the two of them were purple, but this time was different. These were white star ores.

After letting out a heavy breath, Su Meng submitted the weapon blueprint to the game like before and threw the forging materials into the forging furnace.

When everything was ready, Su Meng pressed the [Forging] button.

A moment later, a holy silver-white light flashed, the first thing that leaped to Su Meng’s eyes was a piece of silver-white holy huge Shield.

The huge Shield emitted a holy light from head to toe. Even though one was illuminated by her light, one instantly felt extremely at ease.

After the white light dissipated, a tall and curvaceous Valkyrie in white armor awesomely appeared in front of Su Meng.

Although the specific face that appeared in the gap between the golden-hair and the helmet could not be seen clearly, it made people even more curious. They could not help but stop and observe.

Mysterious, beautiful, powerful… It was as if all the beautiful blessings were gathered on her. Her exquisitely carved facial features gradually appeared, three-dimensional facial features and a high nose bridge.

The next second, the woman suddenly opened her eyes. Her light blue pupils emitted an enchanting light, making one immerse themselves in them.

The 1.8-meter-tall woman held a shield that was nearly half her height.

The woman looked around and finally fixed her gaze on Su Meng. She placed her right hand on her chest and bowed.

“Master!”

Looking at the scene in front of him, Su Meng somewhat did not manage to react. After a while, he swallowed his saliva and responded.

“Do you have a name of your own?”

The woman got up and looked at Su Meng in confusion. In the end, she shook her head. Su Meng did not speak at first. He reached out and gently stroked his chin.

“How about this? You’ll be called Elia from now on. How about that?”

“Elia? That’s a good name.”

The woman lowered her eyes and murmured with her red lips. Her sexy voice assaulted Su Meng’s ears.

Su Meng clenched his fist, placed it at his mouth and coughed.

“Ahem, Elia, welcome to our big team. I had two artifact maidens before you. I hope you all can get along well.”

“Yes, Master!” Elia agreed coldly.

“Okay, then I’ll introduce you to one another.”

Su Meng did not intend to say anything else. With a thought, he summoned and the two of them immediately appeared beside Su Meng.

This time, the two of them did not look at Su Meng, but at Elia.

Before he could speak, a cold voice sounded in his mind again.

[Ding! Additional Quest issued!]

[Quests: Kill a Boss above Level 40! Reward: Artifact Spirit Slot x1, Special Artifact Spirit x1!]

After hearing the voice in his mind, Su Meng’s face was filled with excitement.

A level 40 monster might be very difficult for others, but it was especially easy for them.

For this high-level material forging, Shield Maiden Elia initial level was Level 50. As expected, the level of the artifact lady made of high-level materials would not be bad. With the help of the Shield Maiden plus Leng Yue and Yan Xia, killing the Boss this time was a piece of cake.

They waited for a long time but Su Meng did not speak, yet they could see his excitement.

The three of them looked at each other. In the end, it was Leng Yue who broke the somewhat strange atmosphere. Leng Yue wrapped her arms around the Tang Sword and looked at Elia coldly.

“Is this Third Sister?”

Hearing this question, Su Meng couldn’t be excited anymore and immediately introduced the two of them.

“That’s right. This is your third sister, Elia. She’ll be a member of our team in the future.”

Without saying anything else, Su Meng spoke again.

“Everyone, the crisis has not been resolved. I won’t say anything else. Continue exploring the lair.”

“Yes, Master!”

Yan Xie and the other two cupped their hands in agreement.

Fortunately, Yan Xie did not speak this time. Instead, she kept staring at Elia, her eyes darting around. No one knew what she was thinking.

Before long, Elia, who had been walking behind, suddenly walked in front of Su Meng and raised her shield.

The originally empty lair suddenly sent out a thumping sound. Dozens of little monsters fell to the ground.

A little monster rushed at Su Meng, bared its teeth and growled fiercely. However, Elia did not give it a chance at all. She raised the Western Sword in her right hand and slashed at the little monster.
