Chapter 199
Chapter 199
An ice hole appeared in the ice field. The lower half of the young girl wearing an old leather jacket was submerged in the cold salt water. Her fingers covered with chilblains, calluses and small cracks struggled to grasp the ice surface, trying to slow down the tendency of falling. However, the part that is in contact with the fingers, the ice is melted by the body temperature and becomes smoother and smoother.
Her legs kicked feebly, and the ice water gradually took away her body temperature, making her lower body lose her senses. She only relied on her hands for support, but cracks had already appeared on the ice.
It was very quiet at night, and there was no sound of people around.
Falling into the ice hole and dying silently, this is what often happens on the ice sheet in this season.
The thin ice on which she was relying was already cracked, and the leather jacket soaked in water became heavier and heavier. Seeing that she was about to become one of those people who disappeared for no reason, the young girl thought? The purpose of the action has not been achieved, still heart? Unwillingly thump for help.
Just when the young girl was almost desperate, she suddenly saw a person shrouded in golden-red light rushing towards her.The man's stature doesn't look tall, and he wears rather thin clothes, and his brown-red curly hair, which is not very long, flicked behind his head when he was running.Holding a strange knife that was quite large compared to his size, he climbed over several human-high ice mounds at an unimaginable speed, and didn't stop much after landing.
There was a "click" on the ice? It cracked.
The small warrior stretched out an arm, grabbed her under the armpit, and fished her out of the ice hole.Just when the girl was worried that the warrior was about to fall into the expanding ice hole with her, the man swung the strange knife towards the void on the ice mound some distance away.
Although the time was extremely short, the young girl was extremely sure that at such a distance, it was impossible for the knife to touch the ice mound directly.
However, after a burst of indistinct laughter, accompanied by the sound of blades piercing through the air, the top of the ice mound, which was targeted by the little warrior, was cut off sharply, and The warrior hugged her, and with the strength of the hedge, retreated to the ground opposite to the direction of the destroyed ice mound, and the two of them landed safely.
Leif got down on one knee with the young girl's head resting on the other knee.Holding the knife in one hand, it is used as one of the supports, propped on the side of the body; the other hand is still holding the girl.
Only a few people can see the little man in red squatting on Leif's head, and he still stays in the original position while running all the way, but he is a little dizzy and turns top-heavy.
Seeing the young girl who escaped death, Medra's eyes flashed.
Leif wasn't distracted at all? He ignored the reactions of Medra and the young girl, and just looked at the ice mound not far away.Near the top of the ice mound, it was cut obliquely. At this moment, the tip of the ice mound was slowly sliding down along the cut surface, and finally fell to the ice surface, creating a hole .
Along the way, she took on countless small tasks of killing insects and rodents, trying to use the laughter generated by "external pleasure" to carry the attack power, and conducted countless drills until the time when she was cut off from the air. After breaking off the hard top of the ice mound, Leif finally had the experience that those efforts that were spent before finally paid off.
In fact, before saving that girl, she didn't have a clear and definite plan.The sensory enhancement brought about by the increase in the knight level allowed her to catch the faint cry for help. Then, relying on her fighting instinct, she knew that she had the ability to save people, so she started to act.Some of the later moves—particularly the slicing of ice mounds with a knife through the air—are things she wouldn't have figured out in the midst of a routine that lacked urgency: her previous use of laughter? The goal of carrying attack power is to defeat distant, hordes, and living opponents, and this ice mound obviously does not have the two characteristics of "swarms" and "living".
At the critical moment, instead of resorting to several of her usual coping styles, she unthinkingly resorted to an undeveloped use of "external pleasure," as evidenced by previous ?The training for a period of time has achieved a little success, and there are signs of mastery.
Relying on? Time and energy in exchange for? Results, compared to Natia Vida's pie-in-the-sky gifts—of course she also likes to receive unexpected and much-needed gifts—bringing? With a more layered sense of joy, coupled with the influence of polar blue light on emotions, under the impact of a strong sense of accomplishment, Leif almost felt giddy.
The young girl was still in shock, she was staring up at? The person who saved her stared straight at it.The girl had reddish brown hair, black eyes, smooth white skin without spots, and was very different from any tribe she had ever seen in the polar regions. She was undoubtedly pretty; He is a few years younger, and his limbs are not thick.But the resolute, stubborn and vigorous expression revealed by the corners of the eyes and brows made her feel that the person in front of her was reliable and trustworthy, and it was difficult for her to focus on the person's appearance, age and figure at first glance.
If this person in front of me can't do that, I'm afraid no one else can.The young girl thought?.
Following Leif's gaze, she followed her to look at the ice mound. She was slightly taken aback, then she retracted her gaze and stared straight at Leif.The expression of the latter did not change much, but the pair of pure black eyes lit up for a while, and then the young girl saw Leif lowering her eyes again, with the corners of her mouth twitching. ? But a little shy smile.
Laif tried hard to hold back her joy, fearing that her confidence would swell, so she ran into the five mission areas with a knife.After finally calming down, he lowered his head and met the eyes of the girl in his arms.
Noticing the position of his arm, he belatedly recalled some words that Natia Vida had said. Lev felt guilty for no reason, took a breath, let go, and used the sword Stand up? Stand up.
The young girl turned twice on the ground before stopping?
"Hold... I'm sorry." Leff stretched out a hand, wanting to help her up, but thinking that she was a man with both dragons and eggs, she abruptly withdrew her hand—although she still didn't quite understand, Why does Natia Vida care so much about touching other girls, and there is no risk of getting an extra black egg? But Lev still decided to go along with this non-principle issue? It's better for Natia Vida, after all, the dragon gave him a black egg.
The person who took in Leif and Natia Vida claimed to be from the Misa tribe. Leff just came here on the first day, so far she has no ability to distinguish the natives of this tribe just by their appearance, but the young girl she just rescued It seems that they look a little different from those of the Misa tribe.
The young girl has messy black hair, a pair of green eyes, well-proportioned features, and a sallow and thin face. She looks rather timid, but for some reason Lev looks at her with a feeling of trepidation.
There is a gap at the top of the right ear. This gap is very neat, as if it was cut out with a sharp tool, and it was not caused by an accidental injury; the leather jacket on his body is also much older than that worn by ordinary people in the Misa tribe.
Leff observed the other party calmly, and saw that the other party looked strange, as if he wanted to say something to himself——it seemed that it might be able to provide clues related to the mission.
She suddenly thought of what Natia Vida said? She can always meet a young and beautiful princess during the mission. In fact, it is not unreasonable.Leif now recognizes her identity as the "protagonist" because the existence of other players is not stable, but the frequency of encounters with young and beautiful mission-related personnel including the princess is indeed abnormally high.
Just when the girl was about to say something, Leif suddenly noticed the red-clothed man coming out of the other party's neckline, and his expression changed.
Medra smiled "hee hee" as if claiming credit, and crawled back to Leif.
The girl also noticed the strangeness on her body. During the process of falling into the ice hole, her ankles, arms and hands were clearly cut with many wounds by the cracked surface of the ice layer, but these wounds, along with? It turned out that the injuries I had had all healed.
The girl expressed her doubts in a language full of clapping sounds, and there was only Leif around. Her first reaction was to regard the healing of these wounds as Leff's masterpiece? She made many gestures with fear and reverence. ,
Leff scratched his head, grabbed the little man in red, and pinched it in the palm of his hand.
"I said? I have become very powerful recently. When I first healed my wounds, I needed to make you physically exhausted, Leif. But since Dan Sai Desert, it is no longer necessary. "Medara hugged Leif's thumb proudly, "I can use the energy of what I eat, and the water in the polar ice sheet is quite useful... I will eat more and drink more, you are connected by the dragon. After stabbing through the heart more than a dozen times, I can also save it..."
Leif tapped the little man's forehead with his nails.It's not that she doesn't support Medra to treat people, and she is even happy because of Medra's progress.It's just that the opponent's injury is not serious, and it's not necessary for the villain to take action, and what's more, if the opponent treats it as a sorcery, it will cause extra problems.
"What does Lev mean? Is what I did? Too noticeable?" Madeira said, "After all, he was born 3000 years ago... The assessment period is only one month. After this month, there will be no people know..."
Perhaps the Blu-ray of the Holy Land also has an impact on the villain. Recently, Medra's desire to express is a bit strong...don't recall? The villain's desire to express has never been weak...Leif hit another note.
"It'll be fine. As long as Lev behaves nonchalantly? It's nothing." Madeira covered her head, "She won't doubt..."
Leif looked natural, tapping his fingers on the villain's head continuously.
It wasn't until Medra obediently promised that the next time she wanted to use strangers to practice healing, and at the same time healed the wound, she couldn't let the other party notice the strangeness, and then Leif stopped.
The young girl's amazement didn't last long. She was in the polar ice field, and she had heard and seen many miraculous deeds, and the person who rescued her didn't die because of her wound. Maybe she had nothing to do with the other party? close.If so, because of those disappearing wounds, the fear in her eyes that looked at Leif has not completely subsided.
During the questioning, Leif learned that the young girl's name was Alyes, and she was originally from another tribe in the polar ice field.
At a very young age, the tribe of Aris was defeated in the competition with the tribe of Misa.Parents and relatives lost their lives, and she was taken as a captive and became a slave girl next to Yukama Misa, the head of the Misa tribe. The cut on her ear and the old leather jacket on her body are the Slave symbol.
Ariez went on to mention that on the day of Yukama's birth, the voice of an elf chanting suddenly sounded on the ice field——although she did not witness it with her own eyes, what happened on that day is well known among the Misa tribe Then he said that since childhood, Yukama had been very generous and kind to the captives of foreign races. When beating her, he used a whip at most, and never smashed her head to the ground; It took a long paragraph to describe Yukama's extraordinary appearance, devotion to the spirits of the holy land, and her heroic appearance when hunting.
When talking about Yukama, there was no trace of resentment in Ariez's tone, but full of reverence, wishing to use all the good words she knew.
Leif repeatedly mentioned the matter related to Yukama's disappearance, but Ariez's praise for Yukama was like a flood that poured down after the gate was opened, and there was no way to stop it. .
It wasn't until one-third of the distance progressed that Ariez finally said that Yukama, who was favored by the spirits of the Holy Land, was kidnapped by the worshipers of the evil dragon.When the news spread, Suoquelin Misa, the patriarch of the Misa tribe and Yukama's mother, refused to send someone to rescue Yukama.
Leif heard "Dragon Worshiper?", became interested, and asked, "Why?"
While twisting the water at the hem of the leather jacket, Ariez admitted with shame that the tribe she used to belong to worshiped evil dragons, and emphasized that she is now a staunch elf believer.Then it is said that the believers of the evil dragon will use tricks to pollute the believers of the elves. Although the evil dragon has fallen, those evil believers are still trying to find ways to pray to it, pray for a response, and hope that the dragon can be resurrected. Some elves The believers could not stand the temptation of evil and turned their backs on the elves.
The patriarch worried that Yukama had been polluted and would harm the tribe when he came back, so he refused to send anyone to save his daughter.
But Ariez believes that since Yukama has been favored by the elves since she was born, she will not be so easily polluted, so Yukama should come back.What's more, if Yukama doesn't come back, she will become a slave girl without a master, and anyone in the Misa tribe can bully her until she finds the next master who can provide her with shelter. She, and? Even if she finds a new master, that person might not treat her as well as Yukama.
The reason why she stepped into the ice hole was also because she was chased and bullied by several young men and women in the Misa tribe, and she was in a panic.
Leif is getting closer and closer to her destination.
Seeing the flames, Ariez tugged at Lev's sleeve timidly. She was obviously taller than Lev, but she was a head shorter than her when she bent over and arched her back.
Leif looked down and described the location of the hut she was in. Ariez said that she would come to find her tomorrow and take her to the place where Yukama disappeared.Leif reckoned that when he saw the patriarch tomorrow, he had to make some preparations, and he could leave at the earliest the day after tomorrow.Tomorrow night is not too late, so I agreed.
Seeing the back of Ariez leaving, Leff breathed a sigh of relief and continued to move forward.
The villain in red crouched on Leif's head, and sighed with regret.
The strong and pungent smell of oil came. Leif saw the figure of Natia Vida among a group of Misa tribe not far away beside the huge oil cooking utensil, so he quickened his pace.
Knowing that Leif came with Natia Vida, the natives gave way to both sides.
Natia Vida's side was already very spacious, and the natives made it even more spacious.
Lev made a fake cough, and sat down next to Natia Vida.
Boiling fat was boiling in a huge stone pot, and several stout women were stirring the fat lumps in the pot with shovels.
Some people used stone knives to remove the fat layer from the meat. Most of this fat came from fish, but there were also some light-colored fur of polar animals around.The fat layer that comes off is thrown into the pot.
Some people scoop out the liquid fat?.
Leif remained motionless observing the skilled movements of the natives?.
Natia Vida leaned over suddenly, the tip of her nose almost touched her neck, and sniffed her neckline and shoulders a few times.
Leif's face was glowing red under the light of the fire, and he thought that no matter how sensitive the nose could smell the strong smell of fish oil, he accepted Natia Vida's examination calmly.
Sure enough, Natia Vida let her go quickly.
Leif breathed a sigh of relief.
The locals cut the frozen fish into thin slices with thin stone flakes, then dipped them in coarse salt and put them in their mouths.
While cooking fish oil, eating raw meat, talking about dangerous hunting scenes, talking about a certain ethnic group being bitten to death by strange fish in the sea during fishing...
Speaking of some missing people whose bodies were not found, the natives began to argue. Some people thought they just fell into an ice hole, while others said they were captured as slaves and served elves. Became a worshiper of the evil dragon? Or? Was eaten by the evil dragon... Then? Mentioned the whereabouts of Yukama... Repeated what Ariez said? Then discussed the resurrection of the evil dragon Related rumors...
Lev listened to the rumors of the "evil dragon", looked at Natia Vida, and was about to chat a few words on this topic naturally, and finally hinted that she met someone on the road who told her some news... She didn't feel that she needed to hide the fact that she had met Ariez, but her past experience told her that if Natia Vida found out by herself before she confessed, she might fall into a very bad situation.
A young indigenous girl took a freshly cut piece of meat and pushed it to Leif's feet.Leif shook her head and declined.
After such a delay, Natia Vida's hand suddenly reached out to her neck, twitching with two fingers.
Lev turned her head back? The polite smile hadn't been withdrawn, and it instantly froze on her face.
Between Natia Vida's fingers are two long black hairs.
