chapter23

It was a very small face, less than the size of Tacales' palm, the eyes were larger than normal proportions, at least a third of the face, unblinking, slightly hollow, his nose and mouth were small, and they looked like the ungrown features of a child—a face that belonged to a child!

The child spoke, and he asked, "Who are you?" His voice was very childish, crisp and nasal, very cute, but his tone was cold and undulating, not like the tone of a child of his age.

Tacales said: "I am Tacales, they are Monhama and Monroe, we are all from the White Lion Mercenary Regiment, I am the leader, who are you?" Why are you alone in the Forest of Terror? ”

The child stared at Tacales for a moment, retracted his head, and after a while he stood on the edge of the large rock and jumped down with a blank face. This height was too high for a child, and it was very easy to fall, and Tacales hurriedly reached out to catch the child in mid-air, so that he fell to the ground safely.

The child said, "Thank you." ”

Tacales said, "No thanks, what's your name?" ”

The child said, "My name is Ulila." ”

Takales crouched down, at eye level with Ulilah, and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

"My home is here," Ulila said. ”

"What are those skeletons?" Are you manipulating them? ”

Ulila said, "Yes. ”

Takales said, "You're a wizard? ”

Ulila said, "What's that?" ”

"Sorcerers are a profession that transforms the dark elements into their own magic and fights with the dead," said Tacales. ”

Ulila said, "Oh, then I am." ”

Ulilla's expression and words did not look like a child, which made Tacales feel a little hairy. Just ask, when you meet a strange child who can command skeletons in a strange forest, the first thought of ordinary people must be to hit a ghost by yourself!

Takales had just hugged Ulilah and confirmed that he had a body temperature and a heartbeat, but he did not question whether he was a human or a ghost, but if Ullilah was a human, why would he, a child who looked like he was only seven or eight years old, be alone in the Forest of Terror? Not only that, there was no dirt on Ullila's cheeks, and there were no tearing holes in his clothes, which showed that he was living quite comfortably in the horror forest, and this was the biggest doubt, how did a child survive in a forest that was extremely dangerous to adults?

Takales asked, "Ulila, can you tell me what you are doing in the Forest of Terror?" ”

"I'm waiting for someone to take me away or eat me," Ulila said. ”

Tacales was shocked, he could understand what it meant to take him away, but what it meant to eat him? He looked at Monhama and Monroe, who naturally couldn't understand either.

Tacales said, "Do you want to leave the Forest of Terror? I can take you away. ”

As if he had heard something unbelievable, his unreasonably large eyes widened, and he asked, "Won't you eat me?" ”

Tacales said, "Why should I eat you? "Does he look like a human flesh eater?

"But don't you humans keep going into the Forest of Terror to eat me?" ”

Takales wondered even more, what is called the people who enter the horror forest are all to eat him, is it possible that this child loves to eat human flesh when he is an adult all over the world? Hey, wait, a steady stream of people who are going into the forest of terror......

As soon as Takales had caught a breakthrough and was about to blurt out the answer to Ullilah, Philcy and Luffy sprang out, and as soon as they came, they violently pushed away the skeletons that were guarding them and knocked Monroe down. Monroe, a thin apothecary apprentice who could not bear the weight of two people, lay pitifully and let Filsie toss and turn in the hem of his robe.

Monhama was surprised: "What's going on?" Filsi, shouldn't you go to Tarka yet?! "Monroe isn't as pretty as Tacales!

"Did Filsie's aesthetic change in half a day?" ”

Neither Filsey nor Lub spoke, but turned over Lubu's body, and when he turned out the candlestick of incense, they each wiped some incense ash under their noses, and then took a deep breath. They hid behind a tree and watched the movement until the air in the water balloon was completely unusable, so they held their breath for another two minutes, and when they couldn't hold it anymore, they rushed over and overturned Monroe.

Lubb was the first to stand up and stepped aside, while Filsey patted the ashes and kindly pulled Monroe.

"I'm sorry, we've run out of contemplative incense on Lubu, and it would be bad if we didn't add more," said Filsie. ”

Monroe said, "Well, I hope you don't use that next time...... Well...... The way of stabbing and exciting. ”

Filsie said, "Don't worry, we'll be gentler next time." ”

Monroe: "There seems to be something wrong with the words "......".

Filsey and Lub returned, the people of the White Lion Mercenary Regiment were all there, and Takales happily hugged the two, and it was great that everyone was safe and sound!

Tacales said to Filsie, "This is the child we just met, called Ulila, he can manipulate skeletons, I guess he is a wizard...... However, it doesn't make sense that a child of a few years old has the level of a special wizard, he can control an entire army of skeletons. ”

Filsey said, "Well, Lub and I heard your conversation. ”

"That's great, I don't need to explain any more," Takales said. What is going to happen to this child? Let's take him out of the forest of terror, and we can't abandon him. ”

Lubu said coldly, "We can't take him away. ”

Monthama said, "Lub, what are you talking about? You're too ruthless, Ullilah is such a young child who can't survive in the horror forest by himself, if you don't take him away, will he be eaten by wild beasts?! ”

Lub said, "In this forest, if we are all dead, he will not die." ”

Filsey said: "This time I have to approve of Lub, taking him away will cause us to die." ”

Neither Monthama nor Monro could understand what Filsey and Lub meant, but Takales did, and he already had a guess in his mind, and Filsey and Lub's reaction was to confirm his suspicion.

"Ulila is really...... That's amazing, isn't it? ”

"That's the only explanation," Filsey said. He asked Ulila, "How old are you?" ”

Ullilah counted on her fingers and said, "Eighty, or ninety." ”

Monthama said incredulously, "What are you kidding? I guess I'm eight or nine years old! ”

"Ulila is not joking, don't you understand?" Ulila is the magic fruit. ”

Everyone was shocked on the spot.

The magic fruit is a fruit that is stored in legends, and even the relevant graphic descriptions have not been handed down, because of its miraculous effect, ordinary people enjoy it when they find it, and where will they be willing to share it with others? Besides, in the past few hundred years, there have only been a few stories about the magic fruit, and there are only a few people who have seen the magic fruit, and others can only imagine the appearance of the magic fruit based on their own imagination and the clues spied in the story.

Scholars and professionals in the Star Luo Continent generally believe that the magic fruit is a fruit with bright colors, small size, and fresh aroma, and some romantics even say that the magic fruit emits a bright silver light, so as to highlight the preciousness and uniqueness of the magic fruit. But no one expected that the true form of the magic fruit would be a person, and a child who could say that he could move and have his own thoughts! It's such a subversive worldview!

Monroe retorted: "This is impossible, no matter which angle you analyze the magic fruit is a herbaceous plant, how can it be a ......" He looked at Ulilla in confusion, not knowing what words to use to describe the child in front of him, "Ullila is a person, if he is a magic fruit, then the person who ate the magic fruit before is not equivalent to eating a person?" ”

"That's right, even if you want to improve your cultivation, you won't be able to eat people!" ”

"Then what else do you say about why Ulila can live alone in the Forest of Terror, why he can serve hundreds of skeletons, why does he ask you the first thing he says to take him away or eat him, why does he say he is eighty years old?" ”

Filsi's questions were one after the other, rather aggressive, and both Monhama and Monroe were speechless, and neither could give him a reasonable explanation.

Ullilah suddenly jumped backwards and hid behind the big rock, his body hidden, only his big eyes exposed, and he asked, "Have you changed your mind to eat me?" ”

"Of course not," Tacales said. He stretched out his arms to Ullilah and made a gesture of wholehearted acceptance, saying, "Don't worry, none of us will eat you, nor will we reveal your secrets, Ullila, do you want to come up with the Forest of Terror?" If you want to get out, we can take you out, are you willing to trust us?

Ulila hid behind the stones, full of hesitation, he crushed the dirt with the tips of his toes, and made the toes of his shoes dusty, and after a while, he made up his mind to step out of the shadow of the stones, his little face was full of determination, he said, "I want to get out of the horror forest, my consciousness has awakened for eight years, but I have never been out of the horror forest once, I want to see the outside world!" I've heard that the outside world is divided into day and night, with blue skies and white clouds, elaborate small buildings and magnificent palaces, is this true? ”

"Yes, it's all true, the outside world is beautiful, and there are many things that the Forest of Terror doesn't have," said Takales. ”

"That's great," said Ulila! If the outside world is as beautiful as I imagined, I can let you eat me. ”

Takales rubbed Ulila's head, picked up the other party's ass, and solemnly promised, "Ulila, I swear by the honor of a knight that I will not eat you, nor will I let anyone else eat you." ”

Ulila winked ignorantly and said, "Oh. ”
