Chapter 104: Among the Volcanoes 2(1/2)
Chapter 104
Blacka sat silently at the end of the long table, looking at the banquet filled with the entire table, feeling that she was indeed a little hungry.
It was too rich, because there were only three people, but it was a delicacy that could be eaten by dozens of people.
The rock turtle does not have its own family, it has the concept of rocks and flames, neither of which can give life.
Bai Ling had so carefully reminded Blacka on the way here - Rock Turtle was very concerned about the fact that he was lonely, and if he said this rashly, he would probably annoy this guy.
If Bai Ling hadn't taken the initiative to tell him, maybe Blacka was indeed curious about this question. This place is really too big, but there is no one there. There is not only the king in the palace, but in these castles built underground, only the owners are alone.
one person.
"Is the food still to your taste?" Bird sat across from him, not eating himself, but looking at Blacka sitting there with a smile.
"Thank you very much for your hospitality." Blacka said, hesitating for a moment and looking at the armor on his body: "Is it really okay to just give this suit to us like this?"
"There is nothing more valuable to me than this." Bird said, looking at Blacka who had put on new clothes over there, and said: "You are quite suitable for this."
"Thank you very much." Blacka said, looking at herself hesitantly.
It's just that there's something wrong with that simple robe, and even the bare feet look a bit embarrassing.
Therefore, like the sick mouse, the rock turtle did not look at it anymore, so he gave each of them a pair of clothes as a gift.
You can see the aesthetic difference between the clothes given by Rock Turtle and the sick mouse.
The clothes given by the sick rat are fur products, which are closer in appearance to the clothes of human hunters.
It is said that the sick rat was concerned about the specific appearance of the humans who came to the Black Forest, so it prepared clothes from the human side. Maybe Anthony had the idea, so the appearance does not look very strange.
But Rock Turtle is different. This guy can only observe the actions of the visitors. Although he does have time to think about what kind of things these guys will wear, it is naturally not suitable for him to give as a gift from the sick rat.
Almost all are A.
The only underwear that is not armor is made of slightly hard salamander skin, a strange creature that can bathe in magma. This material should not be used as lining, but is used for light armor.
On the outside is a very thin layer of mail, made of an unknown material, so hard that Blacka can hardly tear it apart.
The outer layer is standard armor. Although it is not heavy armor, it has everything from shoulder armor to chest armor. At least the medium-sized armor surprisingly does not feel cumbersome or hot when worn on the body. It seems that the inside
The crystal stuffed with ice elements controls the temperature to a suitable level.
Maybe the armor will last a few more days?
Blacka thought hesitantly, and he shook the hand armor. Although it was something wrapped around his hand, it was surprisingly light.
He didn't know that this armor could be exchanged for a noble house in the human world outside the Black Forest. This kind of equipment was barely within the scope of human cognition and could be easily given by a guardian like Rock Turtle.
As for Bai Ling next to him... Don't get me wrong, he is not armed like a battlefield valkyrie. Iwataka said that this guy doesn't need protection at all, and only has two simple pieces - a salamander skin lining and
Red dress with locks combined with metal plates.
It is also strong enough. This level of armor basically leaves no room for assassins.
"We have enjoyed enough benefits." Bai Ling looked at Bird and said, "Is there anything we can do for you?"
"It's not difficult." Bird shrugged: "I just need you to help me find someone."
"who?"
"I followed the example of other guardians and recruited a guide six months ago, but I haven't heard from him for two months." Bird's expression stiffened: "Although I have heard about it.
Some humans will try to steal our guardian's power. But I think this is foolish, as long as it is alive, I can find that guy."
"You can't find it now?" Blacka asked hesitantly.
"Until these few days," Bird said, "it seemed to be around here, and its specific location seemed to be disturbed by strange things - in short, I couldn't determine its location. This is a situation that shouldn't happen.
Unless there's something dirty involved in this."
"If that's the case, you have to give up that guide." Bai Ling reminded: "Most people who are stained by that thing have no room to turn around."
"Well, if this is indeed the case, then please kill that guy. On the contrary, if you can, help bring him back, otherwise you can kill him directly." Bird looked a little disappointed, but he still said firmly: "Drill.
Guys who make loopholes in the rules should not be forgiven."
"Although I will probably look useless if I ask this question now... Can you tell me what the so-called dirty things are?" Blacka said hesitantly, watching the two guys look at him together. He
I was shocked by the sight and subconsciously scratched my head.
"I thought White Wolf was explaining it to you." Bird said, and then looked at Bai Ling over there: "Are you deliberately hiding anything from your guide?"
Bai Ling shook his head, Bird sighed, looked at Blacka and said, "After dinner, if you have nothing else to do, you can check out the relevant information I compiled. I haven't been busy recently, so I compiled some basic information about that thing.
material."
"What's a better word for dirty stuff?" Blacka tried to find out in detail.
"Devils are the meaning of the existence of the Black Forest. They refer to all the weird things that have been sealed by us." Bird paused: "But don't worry, it was a long, long time ago, and the world has not been completely out of the hands of God.
Let’s break away from the grievances that have been resolved before. Now those guys can’t make any waves – it’s just that something got through the dog hole of the seal.”
"Things that are sealed will one day be unlocked."
"That's why we exist. The seal will be unlocked, but we will not be defeated." Bird said this, slowly sitting up straight, holding his head in one hand, looking down like a king: "Don't worry.
, child. Even if the sky falls, we will bear it - all of us are waiting for that day to come."
As he said this, Blacka heard the sound of rocks cracking outside - the boiling magma was suddenly furious, surging with emotions called anger.
This guy was a little too hospitable to visitors, which made Blacka almost overlook that he was a bad guy both inside and out.
...
Noah's nose moved, but he couldn't smell anything except the smell of blood from his own injuries.
This time, the injury was serious enough. It was because a hole was made in his body, and he ran with Xin in his arms for a long time.
And throughout the whole process, his holy mana could only be mobilized to prevent the blood from continuing to flow out. Otherwise, if he had left any clues, he would have died even if he had given three more lives.
Too bad.
Noah thought this way and looked around.
There are three extreme dangers in the Black Forest: getting lost, encountering powerful enemies, and running out of supplies.
It's all ready now.
"The only road sign we can find now is the volcano." Xin looked at the huge mountain range spewing smoke and dust and said, "If we go straight back, we will definitely encounter that guy."
"Yes, yes, now we have to take a detour...but where can we go?" Noah said a little impatiently: "That guy is not an ordinary monster."
"Although its ability has been sealed, this is still a sword passed down from generation to generation in our blood clan." Xin said softly: "If we don't untie the bandage on it, we won't even be able to hurt it."
"Can you guarantee that you will still be sane after taking off the bandages?"
"No, so let me unblock him and fight with that guy. This will give you a chance to go back." Xin said, "I may not lose, but you will definitely die if you drag on."
"I really appreciate your kindness, but forget it." Noah frowned and said, "You said you may not lose? How much do you know about that guy? Where do you get your confidence?"
"Just by relying on the weapon in my hand that is based on the concept of injury."
"No, don't tell me that you forgot about the duel between Pig and you. The state at that time was better than now." Noah said: "If you die here, we will have nothing to play. Let's enter
I might have to seek refuge in your home after the Black Forest. If you are gone, let alone seek refuge, it would be a kindness to us if your family does not hunt you down."
Xin didn't speak, she just looked at Noah standing there.
This guy's life seemed to be passing by. This guy was injured but his wounds did not recover. It seemed that something strange was hindering his treatment.
I also noticed this abnormality when fighting that monster. The guy didn't show any very strange abilities, but it was surprisingly hard and flexible, and it would cause inexplicable wounds that could not be recovered.
If there was anything wrong with that guy, it was probably because he didn't take the initiative to pursue him. This guy didn't catch up after injuring two people. It seemed he didn't have the ability to pursue.
Or maybe it's because that guy knows that if they want to go back, they have to pass through where they are, so they just need to wait and see.
The most likely possibility is the latter. They tried to go back into the night, but they could feel the guy's breath just by getting slightly closer.
Fortunately, it is not good at hiding itself, but the guy seems to be eyeing the two of them and has been moving around them. They can only know the guy's location, but they have no idea how to deal with it.
A night of hide-and-seek has completely exhausted their physical strength to the limit.
"If you don't let me go, then we have to go around the mountain to its water-filled river." Xin said softly, "Then go straight through the waterway."
"Playing with driftwood? It sounds really fun." Noah whispered, silently pulling out the holy sword behind him.
Wooden thorns as sharp as spears pierced out of the suddenly twisted ground. The holy sword that came across could only block the attack that hit his vital parts. But his legs were not so lucky and were directly pierced in place.
"Wood demon?" Xin just relied on her reaction to dodge the wooden thorns directed at her. When she moved, she was as fast as a shadow. She almost instantly found the enemy who used magic - that was standing between the branches.
The strange things above, little guys less than half a man's height, seem to be laughing at their stupidity.
Then he was pierced through the head with a dagger and disappeared on the branches.
"Are you okay?" Xin silently looked at the green leaf that turned into a piece of green leaf after the thing disappeared, and frowned.
They were targeted by another dangerous thing again.
The mischievous saplings in the black forest are called dryads. The main body is a tree, and the spiritual power it possesses can create countless clones.
If it is killed, it will be dragged back and turned into nourishment. The clone is not extremely dangerous, but as long as it does not give up, or is not killed, it will be dangerous until it leaves its territory.
This is definitely not a very dangerous monster in the black forest, but this guy is very troublesome. Especially under the current circumstances.
