Chapter 20
The light of the morning light penetrated slightly from the trees into the forest, and the whole world was in an obscure color of light and shadow.
After the Wraith Worm left like a tide, the battle was over, and at this time, both the magician and the fighting warrior felt a burst of fatigue after six or seven hours of fighting, and when the crisis was resolved, they sat down on the ground regardless of their image. And where the magic barrier was originally laid around them, the corpses of many killed ghost insects were dropped, densely packed, giving the vision a sense of impact.
Jian Lu also sat down on the ground, feeling that his brain was throbbing for a while, which was a sign of mental exhaustion.
There are two conditions for a magician to cast magic, one is spiritual power, the other is magic power, and spiritual power and magic power are increased with the increase of the magician's level, he received the ghost worm for one night into the storage compartment space, even if the number is less than one-tenth of the total number, it still causes a great burden on him now.
Although the battle was over, everyone did not dare to relax themselves, for fear that the demonic beasts hiding in this forest would suddenly pounce from somewhere. So, after only a short rest, Olive stood up.
Then she found that the young fighter with maroon hair stood up like her, and the two boys who were with him, and then she soon saw a strange scene that made her feel strange, and saw the young man with silver moon-colored hair and a very delicate and good-looking appearance standing there, and naturally lowered his head, and let the boy in a strong suit next to him wipe the sweat and dirt on his face with a handkerchief, as if he was grooming him, and soon the whole person became noble and neat.
No, his temperament is noble and dusty, at a glance, he knows that he is well-educated, the face that still has the childishness of a teenager and the facial features are very exquisite, not worse than the elf, when a pair of light-colored eyes look at people, people only feel that the person is indifferent and dusty, there is no mortal affection, almost makes people suspect that the young man who had an innocent tone when he first met in the night last night was an illusion.
It should be an illusion.
Compared to the wolf bรจi who had experienced a night of fighting, sweat, mud and blood, this young man was as clean and holy as a forest elf, and it didn't match the style of painting around him.
Olive soon discovered that among the three people, the indifferent young man was the key person, and the other two were like subordinates. Judging by his appearance and temperament, if he is not from a noble family, he is a person of great power.
This speculation made Olive feel a slight chill in her heart, so she stepped forward with a smile and said, "Thank you for your generosity this time, I am the deputy head of the Wind Mercenary Regiment located in the Edith Empire, Olive . Bel. If you need any help in the future, you can come to the place where the Wind Mercenary Group belongs to find me. โ
Jian Lu looked at her, remembering that her sister who couldn't wait to let herself live in the second dimension once analyzed with him that in a strong female novel, there are only two possibilities for female characters to appear, one is a vicious female partner who specializes in stumbling on the heroine, and the other is a female partner who is loyal to the heroine. I don't know what kind of person this person belongs to, Jian Lu thinks it should be the former.
"You're welcome." Jian Lu replied briefly, and then looked at the spirit worms on the ground.
Olive looked at her face and said, "One and a half, how about it?" โ
This decision was lost by the Wind Mercenary Group, although it was only a fourth-level demon worm, but it still lost two people last night, and the battle lasted for a long time, and the participation of Jian Lu and his party could only be said to have played a helping role, but it was of no greater use. However, Olive has her own plans in her heart, Jian Lu and the three of them are confused, and they don't know where they come from, just from the fact that they were able to retreat from the attack of the Wraith Worm last night, and turn to help them, they know that they are not simple.
Adhering to the principle of friendship, it is nothing to sacrifice some, and it may be useful in the future.
Jian Lu glanced at the rest of the Tempest Mercenary Regiment and found that although they had unconvinced looks on their faces, they did not object to Olive Live's decision. Jian Lu shook his head and said coldly: "A quarter, it's fine." โ
You can't be too greedy, you will be punished.
Olive raised her eyebrows, looking at the young man's cold expression inquiringly, originally this look was quite outstanding, but the color of those eyes was too light, when looking at him, people would feel as if those eyes had not seen anything, as cold and indifferent as ice and snow, but they matched that face very well, making his whole temperament become indifferent.
It's weird.
"Your Excellency's move is really hard to refuse." Olive stroked her long hair and smiled even more charmingly, "It's a pity that Your Excellency is still young, otherwise I can't help but be tempted by Your Excellency." โ
As soon as the words fell, she saw the blonde-haired little ghost looking at her with a cold gaze, obviously still a little ghost about ten years old, but it made her feel frightened and felt inexplicable danger.
Jian Lu couldn't cry or laugh, how could his milky appearance attract the love of such a strong girl who does not lose to a man? There is only one possibility, this girl is teasing him! And he can only maintain a cold appearance, and he can't flirt back.
"Hines." He called.
Hines gave Olive a gloomy look, then stepped forward and, with a wave of his hand, took a quarter of the corpse of the Wraith Worm on the ground.
"Farewell." Jian Lu gave Olive a magician's salute and left with Chris, neatly.
Olive was a little dumbfounded, and originally wanted to exchange a few words of useful information with them, but she didn't expect them to give people a chance at all, which made her really cry and laugh. It's also very cold.
Jian Lu's body was very tired, but he still held on, and he and Chris left quickly.
"Find a safe place to rest first." Jian Lu commanded.
Chris nodded, and after two hours of rapid walking, they touched the territory of a group of fourth-level demonic beasts, and then found an abandoned cave on the edge of a cliff. This cave should be left by a mid-level demonic beast, and the dust and dry grass and feces in the cave are already old things, obviously abandoned for a long time, and they are safe for the time being.
Jian Lu threw a wind-based magic scroll into it, the wind blew, and the filth inside was blown out of the cave, and a bottle of magic potion equivalent to air freshener was thrown into it for disinfection, and soon the cave was cleaned and slippery, and then took out the tent and set it up, laid a magic warning, and the temporary camp was completed.
After a brief bite to eat, Chris's alert, Jane Lu and Hines went in to rest.
Jian Lu entered the tent to clean himself, changed into a clean magic robe, and collapsed on the single bed in the tent.
Hines quickly cleaned himself as well, and then he stood in front of the two double beds side by side and looked at them, choosing to get into Jian Lu's bed.
Jian Lu was about to fall asleep, but when he found that the child who had slept with him since he was eight years old had climbed into his bed, he barely opened his eyes and looked at him expressionlessly.
Hines looked at him gloomily, "Your Excellency, do you like that woman from before?" โ
Jian Lu: =Mouth=!
"You didn't refute what she said then......" he continued to lose his ground.
That's because it's so tiring to refute something, it will only make the girl more cheerful to flirt, and he is a gentleman, he won't let the girl get off the stage for no reason, and he won't suffer if he is teased.
complained wildly in his heart, but said coldly on his face: "Don't think about it." โ
Hines stared at him, last night's excitement because Jian Lu was willing to share his secret with him was gone, only gloom remained, "Your Excellency will marry the Holy Maiden in the future, like those previous Holy Sons of the Temple of Light?" โ
Married to Amelia...... Jian Lu was embarrassed again, he regarded Amelia as his sister, how could he marry his sister? And Amelia's husband has appeared, he doesn't want to rob someone's wife.
"No, it won't." He's unequivocal.
Hines's mood quickly became happy, since he knew that the Holy Sons and Holy Daughters of the previous Light Temple would get married if they had feelings, and then when they reached a certain age, they would unload the identity of the Holy Sons and Holy Daughters, his mood was a little unhappy, as for why it was not beautiful, he was not very clear for the time being.
Being so troubled by him, Jian Lu was so tired that his eyes were already closed, patted the young man lying on his shoulder, and muttered: "Okay, I'm tired for a night, rest first, and I'll talk about what I have when I wake up." โ
Hines answered cheerfully, arched his head into his arms, put his arms around his waist and fell asleep.
Jian Lu felt that something seemed wrong, but the drowsiness had already come up~
