Chapter 401: Departure?
Volume IV: Red Rock at the Center of the Earth
"Huh...... It should be said that he deserves to be the owner of waste. In order to save a group of hopeless people, he put himself in this situation. A very soft, but somewhat harsh voice came from the girl. She sat in the carriage, and there was no one else in the carriage but her. So the target of this voice's dialogue is a little strange.
"What! I didn't want to save them! At that time, it was all because I was in danger at the time! I had no choice but to do it! I did it with the trend. If we don't save them, we'll all be doomed!Besides, it's still in my plan! I haven't missed my budget at all! You don't know, I've been planning to leave Gravel City recently! Isn't it just right now, not sooner or later?" The girl said, glancing over her shoulder.
It turned out that her shoulders were not empty. Instead, sat a small man no more than a foot long. The little man was dressed in a golden maid's dress of a different color, and her long hair was also blonde, which was tied up in a bunch and hung straight behind her. Her face was indifferent, and she looked like she was not to be messed with.
"So, we're going to the wilderness?"
"Little Kim. Our trip is not to go to some wilderness, but to maintain health! By the way, we are planting fields and picking wild vegetables to eat! You must know that eating is a very delicate thing! No one knows how many people's hands have passed through the food in their mouths today, and how much time has passed. Now we want to know where the food comes from, what it is like, and whether it tastes good or not, but it is a luxury! Therefore, we have completely grasped all the circumstances and know what we have eaten in this trip! We have learned about the growth process of plants and picked fruits and vegetables that have been cultivated by ourselves! Those are pure natural wild vegetable foods, which are the result of natural genetic selection! This ensures that we can eat with peace of mind! Isn't it a great opportunity to cultivate our body and mind and smooth our stomachs? How can we not cherish it? ”
"Well, thanks to the efforts of the poor and weak owners of waste?"
"......" Before the girl could complain, there was a 'squeak' sound from the carriage outside the curtain, and then a figure leaned towards the door curtain, and a soft voice came out: "Lord Leah, what do you ask for a meow?"
Before Leah could reply, the whole figure of the villain on her shoulder collapsed. But it didn't disappear because of this, but turned into a pile of gold threads, and then slid into the clothes like a cocoon.
There was a slight knock on the door frame, and then the curtain was slowly opened, and a girl with orange hair and two wonderful cat ears on her head opened the curtain and looked inside suspiciously. Her figure was a little weak, thin, with two large cat-like pupils on her face, and a cat's tail behind her.
In order to dispel the other party's doubts, Leah quickly waved her hand and said, "I'm just talking to myself!
"Meow like that?" the girl blinked her big, distinctive eyes, lowered the curtain again, and muttered, "Powerful people, there are always some strange behaviors......
Then, the surrounding sounds subsided, and the sound of the carriage moving again. Looking at the scenery walking around on the side, Leah couldn't help but think of the beginning of this process, which had to be traced back to a few hours ago.
……
After the chaos in Fairwin, Leah decisively left the back kitchen and went straight to the bedroom, ready to leave Fairwin immediately.
She did this just to think about something very important.
And that is: the identity may be revealed!
Even if it is to help others, or in other processes, Leah is trying her best to hide the existence of Xiaojin. Instead of using the power of Xiao Jin, he will be tough to defeat the enemy, but use soft auxiliary means to help his friends defeat. Although the process is cumbersome, the reason for doing so is not only to break the game, but also because if Xiao Jin is known, it will undoubtedly be a disaster.
Powerful power is a kind of freedom, but also a kind of bondage. Not to mention that Leah is still an ordinary person with no attributes, if it is known by some wicked people, whether it is soft imprisonment, becoming a vassal, or being coerced and lured to obtain her rapid power, or the means of concealing her ability, it is a foreseeable danger.
Leah can't guarantee that she will be able to protect herself at all times until she is not strong enough. Especially when she knew that Xiao Jin's power was not unlimited, and she didn't have to rest forever. Without Kim's armor, Leah would be vulnerable. Whether it is dodging or attacking, there will be no escape from the clutches of any malicious person.
You must know that in the world she is in, attribute power cultivation has become a kind of mainstream! Ordinary people without attributes, especially those like her who don't have a little attribute power adaptation, only account for one percent of the crowd!
Anyone on the street can beat a hundred like Leah.
If it weren't for Leah's strong psychology, it is estimated that she would not even dare to walk on the road.
In order to avoid unknown surprises, Leah decided to slip away before the news was completely expanded. When the time comes, they won't be able to find her anyway, so no matter what the news spreads, it won't be her business at all.
Leah prepares to leave the city for this trip. She didn't hide in the city, but chose to go out of the city because of the very long distance between the cities, the threat of Warcraft between them, and the incompatibility between some civilizations. The flow of news between the city was very slow, and from time to time it spread very mysteriously. Plus with the passage of time, the heat will always decrease.
When she goes to another city, she will completely disappear into the sea of people, and become a member of it, without worrying about anyone finding her. Besides, even if she found out, she would have to slip away again.
Leah packed up some things and was ready to go. In addition to spending a few minutes destroying what she had made, she brought a set of clothes, a knife she had bought to cut wood, some food and coins. These things are stuffed with a tote bag at most.
Closing the door, Leah carried a bag and held the orange cat to her chest with one hand. Before leaving, she planned to go to the doctor's shopkeeper to say hello to him, and by the way, to return the orange cat that had been entrusted to her before. The provincial one fell into the handle, and he was looking for trouble.
There was a rush along the way, but not many people noticed the anomaly, and it was still the same as ever. Nothing happened.
I took the wind ladder to the tenth floor, but I saw that the doctor shopkeeper was prepared today, and he did not sit on a chair or stand in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, but stood at the door of the wind ladder.
He stared straight at the door of the ladder, as if he was greeting someone.
Leah was stunned, saw the doctor shopkeeper standing in front of her, blinked and asked, "Doctor shopkeeper, what are you doing here? Are you greeting me? Oh, you don't have to be so polite, just remember me." ”
However, the doctor shopkeeper in the white robe faced the girl, he didn't even turn his head, but his eyes rolled downward, swept her with a cold and arrogant gaze, and then said in a cold tone: "I was just waiting for you." ”
With that, the doctor shopkeeper turned around neatly and walked to the farthest table, in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the center.
Seeing this scene, Leah was stunned, her body didn't move, she just thought about what was going on with the doctor shopkeeper. Was he really waiting for her? Did he already know what had happened before? Or did he know that she had fourth-order power? This was so well-informed? But it wasn't right. If he knew that he had been waiting for someone here and not dealing with the affairs of the hotel?
Say two words silently in your heart. Leah continued to follow to see what the doctor shopkeeper was up to.
The doctor shopkeeper fell back into his seat and pushed a piece of paper on the table that had been prepared long ago towards Leah. Seems to indicate letting Leah look at the above.
Leah took a closer look and saw that there was very little text on the paper. Most of them are crooked and twisted lines, and there are many oddly shaped small pieces, wrapped in a circle of square polygons. Beyond the square polygon, there are several, long and short, with uneven waves and shadows that intersect gray and black. For the rest, there is some green or red, with yellow blocks painted on the outer ring of the square polygon. Finally, a red circle was artificially added to the declination of the outer circle of the map.
As for the few short words, it reads—an overview of the Gravel City and its suburbs.
"Oh roar! I see! Doctor, shopkeeper, you were originally drawing a map, and you are going to ask me to appreciate it! Well, well, the drawing is good, many details have been restored, look at this, it seems that there is still a trail I have walked on in the past few days! The technical level is really amazing, maybe it is a standard scale map! If you have a chance in the future, I will award you a Leah brand surveying and mapping certificate!"
The doctor shopkeeper looked at the girl in front of him coldly, threw the pen filled with red ink on the side with his hand, and then spit out three words: "Go here." The tip of the red pen poked right into the red circle on that map, dotting a red dot.
"Ha, if you say go, I'll go. Do you know what you're going to do here today? I'm here to resign!" Leah said in a high-spirited manner, "I won't do anything you say now!" And, not only that, but I also want you to settle my salary for this month now, otherwise, I will go to the city lord to sue you! You know, the city lord's daughter has a good relationship with me! she will definitely support me!"
Leah picked up the orange cat in her arms, then pinched its paw with one hand and swung it twice in the direction of the doctor's shopkeeper, as if threatening the doctor shopkeeper with its claws.
However, the doctor shopkeeper has not yet answered. The orange cat in Leah's arms suddenly meowed and jumped to the ground. Then the orange cat walked to the doctor's shopkeeper's side, and with a light leap, jumped onto the doctor's shopkeeper's table. Walking up to the doctor's shopkeeper, it continued to meow and whisper, rubbing the back of the doctor's hand affectionately with its forehead.
Leah was speechless, this wolf-hearted thing. It's a shame that she's bothered to feed it for so long, shoveling for it every day. Unexpectedly, at the critical moment, she betrayed her in a blink of an eye and threw herself into the arms of her former master, and she was still so intimate!
That doesn't end there, though.
The doctor shopkeeper stood up again, took off his white robe, and draped it over the orange cat who was lying on the table.
Then, from the cabinet under the table, he took out a reddish and slightly purple potion. He opened the cap and poured it over the cat's head without hesitation. The potion was liquid, and it was supposed to be cold, but the strange thing was that the orange cat didn't move at all, as if it wasn't poured on it.
Leah began to suspect that the doctor shopkeeper was pretending to be a ghost so that he could get the cat's heart. A dazzling red glow emanated from the orange cat's body.
The red glow emanated from the inside of the cat's body, and the light gradually became brighter and brighter. And then the cat began to deform, swell, and separate...... It's like a mass of slimes, rewritten to look like it should have just been stimulated.
A burst of meowing sounds came from the object in front of him, and it was obvious that this strange change would still make the fat orange cat feel something. But in a moment, the light faded. A girl with orange hair, cat ears on her head, a cat tail, and a white coat from the doctor's shopkeeper stood in front of them.
Leah was stunned to look at the orange cat in front of her, who had been with her for a long time, and in the blink of an eye, she turned into a real catwoman?
"Meow woo~ this cat can finally come out of meow!" The girl who turned into an orange cat stretched lazily, rubbed her eyes, and looked like she had just woken up.
But soon, she reacted, leaned to the side of the doctor shopkeeper, her figure immediately bent slightly, gently shaking the cat ears on one side, shaking her tail slightly, and staring at the doctor shopkeeper in front of her affectionately with two vertical pupils, and said softly: "Mr. shopkeeper, what do you have to tell meow?"
