85 in the dark
Dingββ
"Uh-huh......"
Weken cupped his forehead and sat up.
It seems to be the sound of ice cubes hitting together, waking itself up. It was pitch black and it was impossible to see.
What kind of place is this? I vaguely remember that I should have suppressed the attack on the snow in the middle of the battle......
I fell under the ice cave, and my head was covered with a jumble of ice and rocks.
"Let's get up first......"
Knock β
As soon as he looked up, Wei Ken felt something hard hit on his head.
"Come on, this place is so cramped, there's no room to move......" Weken sighed.
I didn't feel the chill from the ice, it seemed that Reyaya's magic was still working.
"Hmm...... Hmmm......"
In the darkness, a slightly tired chirp sounded.
Weken: "......"
It's so close that you can reach the source of the sound if you reach it forward.
Anyway, was it killing her?, but alas, the sword seemed to be thrown as it fell, leaving only a throwing spear on its body.
But......
Wei Ken frowned, and finally sighed, giving up trying to kill Xue Xue, who was slowly waking up.
"Don't you kill me?" said Xue Xue woke up, her cold voice without any emotion.
"What should I say......" Wei Ken frowned and sat down against a piece of ice, "Xuexue, what the hell do you want to do?"
"What do you mean?"
The voice of the snow only showed a trace of ups and downs at this time.
"You unleashed that wind magic that shook me and Yasen, right?" Wei Ken nodded, although he couldn't see the expression on Xue Xue's face, but he could probably detect the change in his mood based on his tone, "If it weren't for you, I can't think of anyone at that distance who would have been able to get us out of that danger unharmed." β
"Really, you can't do it?"
"So, Xue Xue, you ......"
"Aren't you going to kill me?" Shirt Xue interrupted Wei Ken's words, "I'm now, my limbs are frozen and suppressed, and I can't resist you. If you want to take Reaya alive, you can only kill me. β
"Isn't there any other way to go?" said Wicken, a slight frown.
The snow was silent, and the silence in the darkness was unsettling.
After a long time, Xue Xue's voice sounded again: "Yes, but I can't go back to that road." β
"You've always been there in the most critical moments, you don't want to kill Reaya at all, do you?" Wei Ken sighed and sat down a little closer to the snow.
You can feel a trace of warmth coming from her body, which may be the only reassuring existence in this darkness.
"I must kill her, and only by killing her can the reign of Vichy come to an end, and I can truly leave. Xue Xue replied calmly.
"I don't know what happened to Vichy, but I have to bring Reaya back now. Even if it's selfish, I have to. Weken tried to touch the nearby ice.
There was a chill in the palms of his hands, but it was not enough to frostbite.
"If you can see it......"
Weken shook his head and reached straight ahead.
"Hmm......" Xue Xue let out a slightly flustered exclamation, but quickly suppressed it.
However, in this darkness, no trace of sound can be hidden, and all sounds and touches are amplified.
"Sorry......"
Weken hurriedly withdrew his hand.
I touched Xue Xue's face just now......
Fine skin that is scattered on the ends of the hair on the side of the face. It can be judged that this is a face that belongs to a beauty. But a hint of disobedience came, and it seemed to be a scar. An ominous mark disfigured that beautiful face.
"Light, ......" Xue Xue nodded, not reacting too much to Wei Ken's rudeness.
"If you can see what these surroundings look like, you might be able to escape. Weken sighed, "That's right...... I remember that in my tactical pocket, there were flint and steel...... But there are no igniters, and the sparks of flint and steel cannot ignite. In addition, the oxygen here may not be able to withstand the toss of flames......"
"What do you mean?" asked Xue Xue a little puzzled, curiously and expectantly, "Tactics, waist packs, oxygen, is this a wonderful word, is it a new word that has arisen in my hometown?"
Wei Ken raised his eyebrows slightly: "No, it's nothing, it's probably just that there is no way to light the light." β
"Is it true...... "Xue Xue nodded a little lost, "If it's lighting, under my gray robe, near my chest, there is a small package with two magic crystals in it. β
"Wait a minute, Magic Crystal?" Wei Ken was slightly stunned, "That-kind of magic crystal that can use magic!"
The upgrade of the miscellaneous soldier system is exactly what you need. To go from beginner to proficient, it takes a ton of gold, but it only takes a hundred grams of pure magic crystals.
"Hmm...... Surprised?" asked sherally "Magicians usually have a little ......"
"Damn, I missed 100 million! I knew I would have searched carefully!" Weken remembered that during the Northern War, he didn't look for the corpses of the magicians whose bodies had been charred.
Xue Xue: "......"
She didn't understand what Weken was talking about, so she had to get away from it.
"Take out the magic crystal, and I'll cast a lighting spell so I don't need to make a fire as you said. Xue Xue said calmly.
"This ...... If you want to take it out......" Wei Ken's face twitched slightly, "You, can't you turn it out yourself?"
After a moment of silence, Xue Xue shook her head.
"My hands and feet were frozen in the rocks. If I unfreeze the spell now, the rocks will come down and my hands and feet won't be saved. β
Weken shrugged his shoulders and reached out to the darkness ahead, "Oh......"
Xue Xue was silent.
In the darkness, the touch seemed to be strengthened, but both of them remained silent. After all, rummaging through the robe to find a small package on the shirt will always cause some unnecessary touches......
It turns out that she is also an ordinary woman, an ordinary girl who should have lived a life of honey and candy and the love of others......
"Okay......" flipped out the package, Wei Ken reached into it and took out a magic crystal, "Shirt Xue, cast a spell." β
Xue Xue was silent for a long time, as if she was thinking about a very difficult question.
"Snow?" Wei Ken shouted.
"Naturally cast...... My mission will never stop here......" Xue Xue nodded, but her voice was a little embarrassed, "Well, you just rummaged and unbuttoned my robe, as well as the clothes inside...... My body can feel the cold in the air, can you help me ...... my clothes first?"
"I'm sorry......" Wei Ken shrugged his shoulders awkwardly, fumbling to help Xue put on her clothes.
"Is that okay?"
"Well, probably no problem. Xue Xue also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay, then ......"
"Illumination ......"
As Xue Xue recited a simple incantation with special meaning, the magic crystal in Wei Ken's hand flashed and cracked......
"Magic Crystal!" Victor exclaimed.
It's gone, it's gone!
A faint light lit up, illuminating everything inside the narrow cavern.
"It's just a magic crystal...... "Xue Xue stared at Wei Ken.
"I'm sorry......" Wei Ken glanced at the disheveled shirt on his chest and looked away in embarrassment.
"It's nothing...... "Xue Xue shook her head and said, "just to get out of this situation." β
Xue Xue's arms were frozen and stretched out on both sides. And her legs, too, were frozen and had to be spread to the sides to maintain a position that was quite attractive for men.
For a moment, silence regained in the cave, and neither of them knew how to speak.
"Can you please do me a favor?"
At this time, Xue Xue spoke.
"On the condition, how about you let us go?" Wei Ken nodded directly, looking at Xue Xue's eyes seriously.
Those eyes had become gray and dull. And her long hair has also changed from the original beautiful black to a dead gray.
Xue Xue didn't care about Wei Ken's gaze at all: "This can't work, but, why don't you listen to my request first?"
Wei Ken sighed, "Listen up." β
