Chapter 42: The Dark Elves Come to Rob People
"No problem, you can eat. Su Ya smiled happily and pointed behind her, "Just in time, I can tell you about the current situation, and introduce my team members by the way." β
"Okay, I'll go get some food first," Kate said with a relaxed expression, turning and going back to the room, thinking to get something.
After looking around the room and finding no place to sit, Su Ya took out a flower-shaped velvet cushion and beckoned the other four to sit down. Yvette and the others untied their face-covering clothes and the like, but before they could breathe, they heard a "coo" sound inside, as if something heavy had fallen to the ground, mixed with Kate's cries of pain.
Su Ya rushed in and found her planted on the ground, holding a small shovel in her hand, what should have been digging in the ground before, "Are you okay?" Su Ya squatted down, helped Kate up, and asked with concern.
"It's okay, it's okay," Kate rubbed her belly, barely smiling on her pale face, "just squatting down and digging something, not standing firm." β
Su Ya looked over and found that Kate was digging the brown-skinned taro buried in the mud, this kind of taro was picked from the field and buried in the soil, which can be stored for a long time and will not sprout. However, although this thing can fill the stomach, but boiled with water, there is no taste, astringent and easy to itch the throat, Su Ya thought that a woman who is pregnant with a child can only eat these, a little sad, she reached out and took the shovel and said, "I'll help you dig it." β
Kate hurriedly waved her hand: "No, no-"
"It's okay, we happened to be in a hurry on the way, and we didn't eat, so I brought some jerky, and we cooked and ate it together later, I haven't eaten taro stew for a long time, and I miss it a little," Su Ya used a shovel to flexibly turn out the taro in the soil, and urged her with a smile, "You go out and sit and rest, I'll get it, I'm not a nobleman, I'm a commoner, and I've done rough work." β
She whispered "thank you" and walked out with her mouth covered.
Su Ya sighed inaudibly, continued to dig taro, and didn't know where the child's father was.
After digging the taro, Su Ya was not busy going out, there was a pot stove in the room, it seemed to be a place to cook rice, she began to dig out the ingredients from the magic bag, planning to cook a few more dishes, in the last three days, a boy in Yvette cooked and took care of everyone, speaking of which, she was too incompetent as the team leader.
Taro button meat, smoked fish and stewed taro rice, taro sweet jujube soup, sugar shredded taro...... Su Ya racked her brains and made all the taro recipes she could think of, and put a bed full of dishes, don't ask why it's a bed, it's very simple, because there is no table in the room. So, a man and five women lay on the bed and began to bury their heads in eating taro for the whole family.
This meal, even the foodie Lolita did not eat as much as Kate, Kate ate ate in a big gulp, crying while eating, but did not make a sound, the tears fell into the bowl, and she swallowed it into her stomach, and her thin shoulders kept shaking, which made people feel distressed.
When everyone was half-full, they all put down their bowls, silently cleaned up, and waited for Kate to finish eating slowly. Su Ya looked at her height and was about the same height as Kate, turned out thick clothes from the magic bag, and draped them on her shoulders, Kate wanted to refuse, Su Ya held her hand: "It's cold outside, wear more, save the baby from catching a cold." β
Kai nodded and no longer refused, put on the thick clothes neatly, wiped his mouth and said, "I'm full, let's go!"
"Okay," Su Ya stood up and said, "But we are not familiar with the tunnels here, so I want you to lead the way first." β
"No problem, I've lived here for more than a month and know the way. Kate showed the most relaxed smile since they met, put on the cloak to go out, naturally supported her waist with one hand, protected her stomach with the other, bent down slightly, went out of the door, and walked into the tunnel.
Suya beckoned to the others, and the group members followed suit, putting on their magic robes, wrapping their faces back in their clothes, and walking out the door, where Suya walked last, bringing Kate to the door - even though she might never return.
The cave was as deep as it had been when it came, and Kate, as a pregnant woman, was naturally slower than the old man in leading the way, so everyone followed her and had time to look around. The tunnels are wide and narrow, and at this time, it is about the time to rest in the evening, and the villagers have all gone out of their homes, some have taken a walk after eating, and some have set up stalls to do business, but they are not as cold as they imagined.
Su Ya and they even saw a family of exquisite people, in front of the door to dig an underground courtyard, plant some secluded grass, glowworm and the like, suitable for growing in the underground flowers and plants, and then decorate the rockery, dig a bend of the spring, with fire crystal as a light source, at a glance, there is a secluded elegance.
Seeing their curiosity, Kate pretended to be a tour guide and said: "This family is the old man who brought you here just now, Uncle Raymond's family, I heard that his son Raymond is very rich in business in the imperial capital, and the uncle is unwilling to leave the village, so his son sent someone to build this courtyard for him." β
Everyone suddenly realized, passed along the fence, looked into the crack of the fence, and saw a few cute low-level demon pets, also looking at them, until they passed the intersection, Su Ya, who was walking at the end, suddenly stopped: "Where's Kate?"
Hearing Su Ya's question, Margaret, who had been following Kate closely, was surprised to shift her gaze from the fence to the front, and then asked, "Eh, where is Kate?"
Emma behind her was so frightened that she quickly shook her head, saying that she didn't know either, Lolita casually released the undead and drilled into the three tunnels in front of her, and after a while, the undead returned, and she shook her head: "I haven't found it." β
Yvette hesitated for a moment before saying, "Actually, when I was looking at the courtyard just now, I swept a black shadow from the afterglow, which seemed to be going down. But I didn't see it clearly. β
"Dark shadow", "below", the information revealed in Yvette's description, made Su Ya frown, took a few steps back the way she came, stretched out her hand and slid lightly in the air, and concluded, "The dark magic here is relatively strong." After speaking, she squatted down again, took out a large glass of water from the magic bag and poured it into the soil, and when they all seeped in, and then a freezing technique, the soft dirt road that could not see the traces clearly, clearly showed various ice patterns, in the past, Su Ya often used this trick to observe hunting in the forest, so she quickly distinguished: "A dark fairy suddenly appeared in front of Kate, took a step towards her, and took her away, from beginning to end, she did not struggle." β
There was no struggle ahead, that is, Kate knew each other and was taken away, and she should be willing. The rest of the group also sensed the severity of the problem.
This mission was really as she originally thought, there was something strange, Su Ya motioned for everyone to disperse a little, and the whole person lay on the ground, letting go of her magic perception - in fact, standing directly, she could also sense the movement underground, but the five bodies were naturally more sensitive, and at this time, she didn't care about any image.
Pressing her face tightly against the ice-poured ground, Suya completely let go of her mana perception and slowly pushed underground, trying to find a little more clue. Unexpectedly, the clue came faster than she imagined, less than three feet away from here, less than five feet deep, someone actually used dark magic to create a dark space underground.
Of course, this is not enough to be sure that Kate is there, and the reason why Su Ya dares to be sure is that she senses the mosquito repellent pills in her clothes, which she is worried that Kate will be uncomfortable with mosquito bites as a pregnant woman, so she deliberately put it in her pocket when she put on that thick dress. The mosquito repellent pill was refined by Su Ya herself, and she inadvertently left a magic mark, so her sense was particularly keen.
Intercepting people halfway, and hiding people so close, I wonder if this dark goblin is too reckless, or is he bold?
In any case, if they meet on a narrow road, they must have a fight!
Su Ya was lying on the ground, and after a few gestures with the specific gestures of communication within Alice Academy, the rest of the group understood what she meant.
Yvette stepped forward, walked to the place specified by Suya, waved a wave of earth splitting, and in the dust, the dark fairy had to carry Kate out of the ground.
The moment she appeared, Kate was still shouting at the dark goblin, "You let go of me, I said, I won't go back with you!"
The dark goblin turned his head to look at Su Ya and the others, but he really let go of his hand, took a step back, and seemed to be indifferent as if he was saying something that had nothing to do with him: "It's okay if you don't go back with me, give birth to the child to me, I won't pursue your deception of me." β
"Don't you think, the child is mine, I won't leave him in the dark world," Kate waved her hands and said in an excited tone, "I'm going to take him back to the City of Time, raise him well, and let him grow up happily like a normal person-"
"βGrow up happily like a normal person," the dark goblin teased, "after they know that the child's father is a dark elf, are you sure?"
Kate turned around, only to find that Su Ya and her party were standing behind her, with an obscure expression, she immediately became frightened, her mouth was open for a long time, and she couldn't make a sound again.
"Think for yourself, I'll come again. After the dark goblin finished speaking, he released the black mist and fled away, and Su Ya and the others didn't chase it, but just looked at Kate fixedly.
