Chapter 173: Design

"Spike, you're awake!"

Seeing that the person who had been unconscious frowned slightly, and the eyeballs under his eyelids moved a few times, Joshua was a little overjoyed by the effect of the treatment. 「」

The eyeballs under his eyelids froze for a moment, and Spike snapped open, looking alertly behind and around Joshua, seeing that there was no one else, and his body tensed and relaxed.

"What about the two, the mage? Hmm...... his voice was hoarse and unpleasant, and he snorted bitterly in the back.

"We reconciled, and the process was a bit complicated. Don't worry, your wound has just been taken care of by me, listen to me slowly......"

***

When Joshua helped his followers to walk back, Lin An also happened to open the rattan curtain and walked out, and the leaves and flowers adorned on the rattan curtain made a loud sound.

The two looked up and saw that Lin An was the only one who came out, and Joshua smiled slightly.

He was about to say something to Lin An when he heard a cough in the vine house, and his face changed at the same time as his followers.

The follower also seemed to be involved in the wound, holding one hand on his shoulder, and the green tendons on his forehead twitched a few times.

Lin An had already withdrawn from the strange mental state just now. 「」

That state was just a momentary thing, and I was withdrawn at the slightest fluctuation in my mood, and I wanted to go back and try to try that feeling, but I couldn't find the fleeting opportunity and inspiration.

But at that moment, a lot of things poured into her mind, the current general topography of this plane fragment, as well as the distribution of participants, had almost been mastered by Lin An.

This information will undoubtedly be very useful and will help her a lot.

Hearing Salin's cough, Lin An was a little surprised.

She didn't expect Saleen's will to survive so strongly, and she woke up so quickly.

Although the force of nature healed most of the injuries in his body and also replenished the life force, the blood lost and the congestion in the abdominal cavity. It doesn't drain so quickly.

This dragged down Salin's physical condition to the best state at once, after all, although the force of nature is powerful, it is not a panacea.

Fortunately, Lin An also prepared a medicine to replenish blood and clear blood congestion

Joshua saw Lin An's surprised expression, and his face softened.

This female mage had such a powerful healing method that he had never expected. 「」

But her surprise also shows that she didn't expect her companion to wake up so soon, which at least suggests that her injured companion should be about the same level of injury as Spike. None of them have fully recovered.

But even so, Lin An's treatment methods are so strong. It was enough to surprise him.

Because Saleen's internal injuries are far more severe and tricky than Spike's.

As soon as Salin woke up, Lin An was worried that he didn't know the situation, so he moved and struggled casually to worsen his injury, and hurriedly retreated to the vine house. A simple word to him:

"It's okay anymore, it's safe now. You recuperate quietly. Then he went out again.

In her mind, Saleen was a person who always knew what was best for him in any situation, so she didn't need to take too much care of him.

Even if her perception of him changes, she will not think about him everywhere like she did with Andre.

Joshua looked at her and smiled.

"It's amazing that your companion woke up. However, it looks like we are on both sides. Some are similar. "They all have an injured companion with them, and their strength can't be used to the maximum, and no one can help anyone.

"Originally, I thought that with the serious injury of her companion, we would take the initiative and the upper hand." He thought.

The corners of Lin An's mouth rose a point. Look like you don't have to laugh.

Since she had agreed to a settlement at that time, she had already considered the follow-up security issues. Salin, who was healed by the forces of nature. The speed of recovery will be much faster than that of the other party, and with his cooperation, it will not be difficult to gain the upper hand.

You know, the fruit of the oath also has loopholes, which only restricts her and Joshua from harming each other, but does not restrict each other's companions from attacking each other.

And his follower's injury is obviously lighter than Salin's, the combination of a mage and a martial artist is very reasonable, and the tacit understanding between them is far higher than that between him and Salin, if Lin An is not a little sure, the so-called reconciliation will only delay the conflict for a little time.

If she hadn't thought through these issues and had left her hands behind, how could she have agreed to Joshua's offer of reconciliation lightly?

The mage has never known what soft-heartedness is, and he is not a disciple of the hidden lineage, nor is he a dove of peace who advocates harmony and friendship.

Joshua's gentle and polite appearance is, of course, natural, but Lin An, who is accustomed to seeing all kinds of characters, also wears an iceberg mask that is indifferent and difficult to approach, how can he be deceived by this seemingly relaxed attitude and relax his vigilance?

However, it cannot be said that the two sides did not have the sincerity to reconcile at all, otherwise Joshua would not have come up with a fruit of his oath to waste. 「」

It is only the actual premise of reconciliation, which is not based on oaths, but on the reality of the situation.

Judging from the things and means that both sides have come up with, they have extraordinary backgrounds and can be called evenly matched, and they must all have hidden hole cards that have not been opened.

Cooperation is two benefits, division is two harms, before there is no reason to put the other party to death, both sides feel that there is no need to uncover the hole cards, resulting in a situation that is too late to say.

In contrast, similar mages tend to prefer alliances that are mutually beneficial.

The reason why they feel that the alliance is beneficial to their side is because they all feel that they are sure to dominate and have the upper hand behind the alliance.

Judging from the current situation, Lin An used the power of nature to gain a slight upper hand and seize the opportunity, but Joshua did not give up completely.

Mages are calculating creatures.

After a brief conversation, Lin An and Joshua's eyes were wrong, and then they quickly turned away, feeling that the other party was hiding the calm and shrewdness that he secretly expressed, and it seemed that he was not very calculating.

The smell of the same kind aroused Joshua's male belligerent instincts.

Lin An was very calm. 「」

Her Oath-Bearer didn't know what a difficult character Saleen was, and although she didn't know much about the man in black, he was much easier to deal with than Salen by some clues.

The situation is a bit deadlocked, and now it seems that Salin's recovery speed is a little unexpected, but after all, he has not recovered and appeared in front of Joshua raised his eyebrows, so Lin An's side seems to have the upper hand in strength, but the advantage is not obvious, and it has not been able to transform into a real initiative.

Joshua was also a little skeptical.

Lin An's composure was not like pretending, but he couldn't believe that with such a serious injury, in the apprenticeship stage, Lin An had any anti-heaven healing methods that could make Salin recover so quickly.

If Lin An really has it, then with the chips she has taken out now, it is not impossible to consider letting her occupy the dominant position for the time being.

Lin An cleaned up a place under his feet and painted with a branch on the exposed ground.

"What are you doing?"

Lin An heard the question and looked up. The follower of the Man in Black was staring at them from a distance, and Joshua, who was questioning, had already approached her.

Lin An didn't care much about Joshua, and the oath between them limited them to not personally attack each other, no matter what means.

"Draw a map."

In the state of a moment just now, Lin An saw a lot of things, just like a gamer opened a map in front of her, she needed to write down what she saw and turn it into an advantage.

"Maps?"

Joshua looked at the oval that Lin An had drawn, with its jumble of lines and dots.

"The map of this island, don't you know it's an island?"

"I thought this was the Linhai Continent."

"Obviously, you're mistaken, this is a large island thousands of miles in diameter."

"Oh, I see."

Joshua's tone was flat, and he was actually somewhat unconvinced.

The man in black over there also heard their conversation, and looked at it with undisguised suspicion in his eyes.

-- Any other person will have this idea and logic:

Because if Lin An really knew the terrain here, then she would not enter that forest lightly, and even be chased and killed by the demon spider swarm.

Joshua looked at Lin An's dots and strokes, and felt that she was pretending to be mysterious, extending from this point, so Salin's previous cough was also likely to be a delaying tactic.

Joshua's eyes flashed with a strange light, a little unpredictable.

Of course, the map drawn on the ground with tree branches is of course impossible to be as detailed as the standard, otherwise Lin An would not have drawn the map in front of Joshua.

However, the general shape of the island has a complete outline, especially around the road to the Demon Source, Lin An marked the route in more detail, and also marked a few points with special symbols.

All she uses are generic flat ground icons. Lin An knew very well that Joshua must have understood this picture, and of course, with the current situation, he would never believe the authenticity of this picture.

Even if it were Lin An herself, she wouldn't believe it, let alone rashly follow this roadmap of unknown risks, even if she could prove that this was a true map, she wouldn't either.

However, Lin An didn't need Joshua to believe it all at once, she just needed him to notice the map and write it down by the way.

That moment of state came too timely, if she didn't make full use of it, she felt a little sorry for herself, but she alone could not make full use of the information she had obtained and turn it into an advantage as much as possible.

So, she still needs Joshua's cooperation - of course, he can't take the initiative to cooperate, but she will let him cooperate.

Leaving a little time for Joshua to memorize the simple map map, Lin An dropped the branch and stood up, stepped lightly on his feet, and erased the map again.

Joshua's eyes moved when he saw her move.

He already almost felt that Lin An was tricky, but he was not sure yet, and he looked coldly at what she wanted to do next.

Lin An smiled at him and asked straight to the point.
