On the flat snow, a snow-white semi-circular igloo stands abruptly. 「」

Click, click, click-

The sound of a single footstep from far to near.

Ram, who was guarding the clearing in front of the igloo, opened his eyes and looked at the comer.

The other party was dressed in a neat robe, Ram bowed and saluted, and the other party nodded as a return salute-

In the past, when saluting a soldier leader like Ram, the other party didn't even need to glance at it, let alone return the salute.

Ram knew that it was not actually because of him or his salute, but because of the identity of the Lord in the igloo - in their opinion, the act of naming him to be a guard at least showed the trust and favor he had gained in your honor.

Of course, Ram himself thinks so.

After greeting Ram, he did not ask him to pass the message, and stood quietly in the open space in front of the igloo for a while, and a calm and low male voice came from the igloo:

"It's Master Ike, what's the matter? Did you dig up something wrong? ”

Master Ike bowed respectfully, and this mage etiquette was unusual.

In the practice of mages, mages of all ranks, regardless of rank, are seekers of knowledge on the path of magic, and they are equal to each other, and the salute of the lower mages to the high mages expresses a kind of respect for the high mages in terms of magical attainments and knowledge. 「」

Unless it is the recipient's great kindness to the giver or the grace of teaching and nurturing, even if it is a high-ranking master, he cannot force a low-ranking mage to practice such a etiquette.

After bowing. Ike bowed slightly and replied:

"Master Lynn, we've dug into the gate valve that leads to the second floor. Is it going to be opened, or are we going to clean up the first layer first? ”

The people in the igloo were silent for a moment.

"You can open it and take a look, but the further down you go, the less likely it is that someone will survive, and now that so much time has passed, the possibility of people from the lower class alive ...... Let's focus on the first layer of search first. ”

After a pause, a deep male voice said again: "It's been two days, and there is no news from the fortress yet?" ”

This question. It was everyone's concern, including Ram, who remained calm on the surface. But he secretly pricked up his ears.

"It's about the chaos of the fortress, so I didn't have time to draw out manpower,"

Ike replied that he knew more about the speculation about what the fortress would do than Lin An.

"You can see this direction from the fortress...... The situation has not been sent to the fortress from the mining area, and they should have guessed the worst situation. "Maybe they're already on their way now."

The journey from the fortress to here. The fastest speed only takes a little more than a day. Even if the upper level of the fortress is not a mining area, just this elemental spring that suddenly gushes out of the ground, the fortress side will send people over.

Unless. Big problems arose inside the fortress.

“…… Well," the male voice in the igloo replied indistinctly, "By the way, have the more than 20 people rescued been settled?" ”

"Yes, lucky! For some reason, although few survived, those who were rescued quickly recovered their senses and suffered relatively minor injuries...... And it's the turn of spring and summer, and the temperature has been in the heat lately -- well, after the change, there has been some improvement.

In the lower senses, not only the concentration of the elements, but also the activity of the elements has increased somewhat, and there is no more suitable climate for the recovery of the wounded than now—"

At the mention of this topic, Master Ike's expression became a lot clearer, and he vigorously praised Lin An,

"And with the healing potion generously provided by His Excellency the Master, I believe that the injuries of most of the wounded will not deteriorate." 」”

As for where Lin An, who seemed to have nothing to do, got the healing potion, he wouldn't specifically mention it, even if Master Lin's possession of spatial equipment had already been exposed during the escape, since the master himself took out the potion, he didn't seem to be too taboo about it.

This made Ike and Ram and others have to guess about Master Lynn's background.

For Ike's words, the corners of Lin An's mouth in the igloo were slightly hooked-

Can you not be lucky?

With so many people dying in this natural disaster, the soul power left behind is not ordinarily huge, even Lin An, who has the memory of the Dark Girl, can't safely save these soul powers, which will affect her state of mind.

So she ordered Titi to lurk in the shadows, and to heal the wounded with the power of nature transformed by these soul powers before they were dug up, so of course they all seemed to be vigorous, not seriously injured, and restored faster than ever before.

- If Ike had known that when he was dug up, his life was almost hanging by a thread, and his body was like a rag doll, he wouldn't have said that.

However, Lin An is not only willing to give so much natural power to save people because of her mood problem, she also needs her current identity, so she needs someone to live. 「」

After she rescued Ike and Ram and healed them almost, she explained that they were buried shallowly and were quickly found by her, so there were no injuries on them.

Of course, she didn't want to overdo it, so as not to make people suspicious, so there were still some people who were more seriously injured.

Among them, there is Master Kalinda - Kalinda's injury is actually the lightest of the few, not to hurt her life, probably Ike protected her, but Lin An didn't treat her much, so she naturally recovered, so she looked like the most seriously injured of the few, which made Ike blame himself very much.

Because of this, Ike is very grateful to Master Lynn for his "generosity" in giving the healing potion, plus Master Lynn also rescued him from almost being buried alive-

The combination of the two was tantamount to a grace of reinvention for Ike, so his attitude towards her became deferential, and he even completely forgot about the mustard that Lin An pointed at with his staff several times during his escape.

The two talked for a while, mainly Ike explaining the specific process of saving people.

In the igloo, Lin An pressed his eyebrows, his eyes slightly tired.

In these two days. She wasn't idle, barely closing her eyes—except for meditating to restore her mental power. "And keep an eye on Titi lurking underground.

Titi's appetite is growing and her aggressiveness is becoming more pronounced, and if she doesn't keep an eye on it, Ike might find one or two dried corpses during the excavation, and she won't be able to explain them.

Lin An didn't want to let Titi attack the living**, the soul power under the mining area was enough for her to save people and save herself.

Even her treatment of the interrupted elemental erosion was almost expelled by the natural recovery power of her body with the supply of Titi's large amount of natural power.

"It's a pity. When Kalinda woke up, she didn't say anything, she seemed to vaguely feel the call of the law to her. If it weren't for the injury, and the current environment doesn't allow it, maybe she would have been able to advance-

By the way, Ike, your time and accumulation in the senior apprenticeship are deeper than that of Kalinda, do you have a premonition of promotion? ”

Judging from the sight peeked into by the Eye of the Law, it seemed that the laws of this plane were transforming into new life. Lin An didn't know if this was caused by the closure of the Tower of Babel, but what she wanted to confirm was whether this change was universal.

But. This kind of problem is a problem for any mage. It's all extremely personal and unspeakable, and it's very rude and offensive to ask rashly, if Lin An didn't have a favor for Ike and Kalinda. The two of them would never tell her the truth lightly.

The Eye of the Law is not controlled by Lin An himself, and it always appears suddenly, otherwise she doesn't need to ask Ike, just look at the situation of the Silk of Law beside him, and she can roughly understand.

Ike was silent for a moment, looked at Ram, and then said:

"It seems that the feeling of being summoned is a little more obvious than the previous few attempts to advance, so I plan to prepare for the promotion when I go back."

“…… That's the case, so I wish you both. ”

Lin An got the answer, which was not unexpected by her, so she said happily, and then said,

"In that case, after I go back, I will sort out the simple promotion experience, which may be helpful to the two of you."

Ike was overjoyed, but not modest—a gesture that expressed his extraordinary intimacy and reverence with Lynn more than a grand thank-you and a flattering gesture.

Ram's eyes flashed slightly, but his expression remained unchanged, as if he hadn't heard it at all.

After Master Ike left, Ram suddenly said in a loud voice:

"Master, I don't know if it's a coincidence, but I have a vague premonition that I am close to promotion recently."

There was silence in the igloo for a moment.

"Ram, you've also practiced Douqi?" Although it was a question, the tone was not much surprise.

"It is the most common basic fighting spirit in the army, and it was once appreciated by an adult and taught in private, so it was not dared to be revealed in formal occasions."

Of course, the army's teaching of fighting spirit is controlled, but the situation of privately teaching fighting spirit is also common in the army, especially for the lowest level of basic fighting spirit, it is more widespread, after all, there are not many civilians with fighting spirit qualifications, and the army should also cherish talents.

Lin An's impression of Ram is that he is good at drilling, has a strong desire for power, and is quite scheming, so it is not surprising that he can be appreciated by his superiors and be taught his fighting spirit.

Lin An had the impression that Ram was somewhat similar to the former leader of the demon hunting team, Keno.

However, Kino should have entered the Sword Saint Mountain, after all, although there were some problems after the trial, according to the promise of Master Dophin after Keno gave the token at that time, by this year at the latest, Keno will be able to get the recommended quota to enter the Sword Saint Mountain.

And Ram is far from having the opportunity and qualifications of Keno, and his scheming and vision are a little more shallow, this kind of person does not dare to take the strong lightly, he is easy to be controlled, his eyes and methods are suitable for being taken into his subordinates, but he can't be completely trusted-

Lin An understands the attachment behind Ram's confession, and for the time being, she also needs one or two smart subordinates to do things for her - originally she appreciated Ike's affection, and she might buy one get one free, but unfortunately now it seems impossible.

"So, you're about to enter the Silver Tier?"

"Yes, sir."

"I'm a little older, but the basic fighting spirit has been practiced to this point, and the qualifications are good, so you can follow me for a while first."

"Yes, sir!"

Ram knelt down on one knee and changed his name.
