Chapter 226:

'Click! ’

A bolt of lightning pierced the sky, and a torrential rain fell in the thick thunderclouds.

Big drops of rain crackled on the wagon.

Freya looked up at the gloomy sky with a slight frown, and snapped her fingers.

With a snap, a cyan film instantly covered the carriage.

But even so, the ordinary yellow pony he bought from Dartsk still walked a little crookedly under the rain of this journey.

The horses' hooves trampled patches of yellow-brown muddy water on the muddy path, causing the otherwise steady carriage to sway from time to time.

"Looks like we're going to have to find a place to take shelter from the rain."

Expecting that the rain would not stop for a while, Freya shook her head and made a decision.

Fortunately, the woods seemed to be infested with hunters, and a brown cabin appeared in the distance in front of her in the hazy rain.

The horse-drawn carriage was driven to the wooden house.

After parking the carriage in the woods by the roadside and taking some precautions from the rain, she walked towards the hut.

The door of this wooded hut seems to have been broken by someone, and only half of it remains on the door frame.

Freya glanced inside, there was only a table and two benches, and no one was there.

However, there is still a faint black mark on the ground, and it is believed that someone had a barbecue here not long ago.

Pushing open the half-sided wooden door, she stepped inside.

After simply wiping the dust off the table and chairs, I sat down directly.

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier. Dirt mixed with moist air poured in through the doorway, but the terrain was a little higher and the rain would not flow in for a short time, but it would be difficult to say if it was longer.

The little yellow pony next to him didn't seem to like the weather either, and could hear the gentle neighing of horses from time to time.

After sitting on the bench and watching the rain for a while, Freya thought for a moment and took out the spell book that Hegel had left for her from her robe and read it.

Although this book has been flipped through several times, it is still very good as a tool to pass the time.

But in less than five minutes she watched. Suddenly, the sound of wings flapping came from the door of the wooden house.

A small bird with dark green feathers flew in without fear of Freya's own care.

The rain washed away the bird's feathers. He looked like a wolf, and was now trembling in a corner of the cabin, staring at Freya with a wary gaze.

Raised his head slightly, looking at the dark green bird that was also sheltering from the rain. Freya blinked.

"Huh. Is this a bellbird? ”

Bellbirds. This bird can be regarded as a demonic creature, but it belongs to the lowest level, and its IQ is higher than that of ordinary birds. However, it is not much different, and the only advantage is that it flies very fast.

Adult bellbirds are said to be able to reach the speed of arrows, and some people with special methods have domesticated the bird and sold it as messenger pets.

In addition, the feathers of this bird are light and cool because of the attachment of wind particles, and it is a good material for most aristocratic ladies to make zuò hats.

Of course, Freya had little interest in plucking out its feathers to make a hat.

Seeing the chimelion trembling from the rain, she smiled and tapped her fingers lightly on the tabletop.

Suddenly, a little red light submerged into its body, and in a short time, a small amount of steam was volatilized by the action of fire-based energy particles.

The bellbird, whose feathers were gradually dried, seemed to notice that it was a human in front of it who was helping it, and jumped up and down to get closer.

And Freya didn't mean to refuse, and rubbed some of the dry food she had brought with her into powder and scattered it on the ground.

Looking at the bellbird, which had let down its vigilance, pecking at the food on the ground, she withdrew her gaze and looked at the book in her hand again.

Half an hour later, the wildly sloping torrential rain began to slow down.

After a few more moments, a ray of sunlight fell through the dense clouds.

Sensing the rain clouds dissipating, Freya closed her book and walked out of the cabin.

The woods were still ticking after the rain, and the carriage on the side of the road was still in good condition because of the rain precautions that Freya had taken before.

Only the little yellow pony kicked the wet mud in front of him with his front legs from time to time.

After stomping her foot lightly to soothe her stiff body, she walked straight to the carriage.

The Crimson Plateau was not far from her current location, and if it weren't for this rain, she would be able to enter the Crimson Eagle's sphere of influence about tomorrow afternoon.

But now because of the trail after the rain, it may need to be postponed a bit.

Pulling the rain cloth from the carriage, Freya frowned as she looked at the impatient little yellow pony and the road that had become unusually muddy.

"Otherwise, it's better to rest here for a while, I remember that there seems to be a small wizarding organization here, and I think there must be a place that provides hotels."

Just as Freya was thinking about the exact location of the little wizard in her mind, a strange scream suddenly came from the nearby woods.

'Squeak'

The scream was so piercing and jarring that Freya felt a slight tremor.

The trees next to them fell raindrops from their leaves because of the scream.

"Spells?" Freya turned her head sharply, her eyes staring inexplicably at the spell-screaming woods.

Judging from the energy aura above, this spell is only at the apprentice level, and it is limited to the disturbance effect.

However, since someone is using spells in this place, it seems that someone may be fighting.

After thinking about it, for the sake of unnecessary misunderstandings and troubles, Freya directly chose to stand in place and wait for the end over there.

However, things seemed to be a little unexpected, and with the scream just now, a large number of sounds of Si Xi Suo came quickly from the woods over there from far and near.

It didn't take long for a dark-haired teenager in a gray robe with a slightly wolf bèi to quickly emerge from the woods.

It didn't seem that there was anyone on the side of the road, the young man was stunned, and then his eyes narrowed and he ran straight towards Freya.

As soon as he shifted direction, two strong men in half-length armor and holding long swords and a gloomy girl with the same gray cannon also burst out.

Although the three of them were also stunned when they saw Freya, they hurriedly continued to chase after the young man.

"Don't run, Knight! You don't stand a chance anymore! Now if you stop and put things down, I can go around your life on behalf of my grandfather! But if you run! Then there's no room for manoeuvre, you know the consequences!! ”

The girl's threatening words didn't help, but made the black-haired boy faster.

However, Freya, who was standing on the side of the road, saw the boy running towards her, and her brows gradually furrowed. (To be continued......)
