Chapter 32 Phew, Don't Lose Your Face!
“???”
Wren turned his head to see that the beautiful blue eyes were staring at him strangely.
Could it be that this woman suddenly made a murderous move?
No, her eyes are not murderous, but a little bit like... Caring for the eyes of a mentally handicapped guy?
Oh... I must have read it wrong.
.......
Wren asked, "Is there anything else you can do, Miss Ymir?" ”
Ymir reminded, "This is the 'Bakanya Heights', do you really plan to cross this place alone?" ”
The Bakanya Highlands?
Why emphasize this place name?
Wren was unfamiliar with the name, the Ice Ridge Wasteland was vast, and there were many small names.
He hadn't been here, so how did he know what it was called.
He listened, and naturally didn't take it to heart.
Of course, Wren thought that he couldn't let people see the flaws in his unfamiliar path, so he pretended to be calm and said, "Oh, of course. I'm a solitary hunter..."
“...”
Ymir looked at his clumsy performance and tilted his forehead slightly.
Sure enough, this guy didn't know where he was now.
After a pause, she explained more bluntly: "I want to say..."The 'Bakanya Heights' is one of the most famous dangerous places in the Empire. There are a lot of high-level demonic beasts infested, and few people who have not advanced to the third-order [Demon Hunter] will come here. ”
After saying that, she looked at Lei with the strange eyes she had just now.
"Huh... Dangerous places? ”
The brain felt as if it had received some strange message.
Hearing this, Wren suddenly felt as if his feet were sticky, and he couldn't lift them.
The first reaction was, isn't this woman scaring me again?
No, there's no motive.
The big guy wants to do it, and he still needs to waste this tongue?
Faintly, Wren suddenly understood what was going on with those "caring eyes"...
Without waiting for him to think too much, Yumir said faintly from behind him: "Half a year ago, the well-known 'Quetzalcoatl Hunting Squad' of the Hunter Guild was wiped out in this vicinity. Their captain is a well-known witcher among the fourth-order powerhouses, [Covenant Mage] Mekashi. And where we are now, right in the heart of the 'Bakanya Highlands'..."
Grunt...
The sound of swallowing saliva is so clear.
"Four... All the fourth-order powerhouses died here? ”
Wren chuckled in his heart, and his expression suddenly froze.
The feet are completely unable to lift.
Deler, no wonder the way the girl looks at her so strangely, it turns out that she has already seen through everything.
A dangerous place that can destroy the fourth-order [Great Demon Hunter] can be broken into by a rookie who has just advanced to an extraordinary level?
Doesn't that mean... I just sang a one-man show like a fool again?
God's lone hunter!
Ahh
How did you say this shameless lie just now?
Wren instantly felt embarrassed.
Thinking about it again, it turned out that the few "dogs and rabbits" I encountered last night were not my luck, but because of the possession of the European Emperor, so I didn't encounter high-level magical beasts, and rode a motorcycle all the way into the deep hinterland of this "Bukanya Heights"?
......
Those who know the times are Junjie, and he Lei someone instantly recognized the reality.
"According to her, this place is so dangerous... If I leave like this, I'm afraid I won't survive tonight. ”
At this moment, Wren was extremely embarrassed.
The tangled expression of being afraid of death and holding on to his face was vividly expressed on his face.
It turned out that Ymir said so much as a euphemistic reminder of his stupid behavior...
Want to save his life?
This cold-looking big beauty, instead of killing people, is much kinder than expected.
......
It's as if I heard a snap, a snap, a snap... The crunch of the sound.
At this moment, Renne, who was exposed to his little secret, had a hot old face.
To save face, die!
Don't lose face, live!
Choose one of the two!
For the sake of his life, Lei's imminent self-esteem only lasted for a second, and then fell like a glass to the ground.
Ahh We don't want it!
lost the festival, and at that moment, the sea and the sky were wide.
cough, cough, cough...
The big husband can bend and stretch!
Wren, who suddenly figured it out, reversed the direction of his steps as if nothing had happened.
He didn't look back just now, so he walked directly to the extinguished bonfire and helped pack up the remaining supplies.
"Oops... I suddenly feel that Miss Ymir, your injuries are not healed, and you should need an accompanying doctor to help you change your dressing and monitor your injuries in real time..."
While packing, Wren said without blushing and heartbeat: "Moreover, leaving a beautiful young lady like you like an angel alone in the wasteland is definitely not the behavior of a gentleman..."
Sure enough, as long as you don't feel embarrassed, it's others who are embarrassed.
“...”
Yumir quietly listened to Wren's brazen words, and the corners of his mouth rarely raised a slight arc.
There is no such interesting guy among the nobles of the Empire.
What Wren didn't expect was that instead of breaking the little ninety-nine in his heart, Ymir also took the initiative to go down the stairs in an empathetic way.
"I think so too."
Ymir nodded his head in a thoughtful manner, and said in an elegant but polite tone, "I think... I also need a doctor on hand to help with the care. Dr. Wren, would you like to accept my employment? ”
"Of course!"
Wren immediately stood up, bowed in front of the beautiful woman, and kissed the back of her hand: "It is my pleasure, Miss Ymir. ”
Ymir still looked at him quietly, like an ice lotus blooming in a snow-capped mountain, arrogant and beautiful.
Suddenly, the relationship between the two people was inexplicably reciprocal.
I've seen your body, you've seen through my lies, and the atmosphere seems to be suddenly less awkward.
......
The camp had a lot of supplies, sleeping bags, food, equipment for wilderness life, and surgeons' instruments and medicines.
In order not to expose the fact that he had a storage ring, Wren carried all the usual things on his back.
A few large bags full of them, like a hiking backpacker.
Ymir followed him quietly, never speaking again.
Apparently, she also guessed, although she didn't know where the steam locomotive went... But the Imperial Knight I thought I was last night was probably the young doctor in front of me who was a little slippery.
The clever woman had apparently guessed that Wren had her own secrets, but she had never opened her mouth to get to the bottom of it.
Because none of this matters anymore.
You've survived, haven't you?
.......
"Miss Ymir, where are you going?"
"What about you?"
"I'm going to go to the nearest 'Snow Eagle Fort' for a while."
"Let's go there, then..."
"Oh."
“...”
Wren walked in front of the backpack, and occasionally encountered some difficult terrain, and he would also support Ymir behind him.
This mysterious and powerful blonde lady seems to be accustomed to having a "servant" and naturally accepts the care.
Wren guessed that she might really be the eldest lady of some noble family.
The elegance of her cheeks and movements is not a squeamishness of pretending to be a posture, but a habit engraved in her bones.
At least the people at the bottom of this world, even the ordinary low-ranking nobles, will never be able to cultivate this kind of arrogant temperament.
......
The two of them just walked on the moor.
They were very tacit and did not ask each other's secrets.
Yumir's words were very few, and the two of them might not have exchanged a word for several hours on the road.
Wren also straightened his form.
Naturally, he knew very well that it seemed that he was taking care of the blonde lady. In fact, it was Yumir who took his little rookie on the road in order to repay the grace of saving his life.
If you receive favor from others, you will speak less, so that people will not be misunderstood and fall behind.
......
Sure enough, not long after walking on this wilderness, Wren realized the true meaning of the "Bakanya Heights" that Ymir said was a place where even fourth-order transcendents could be killed.
Two humans traverse the wilderness, and finally, their scent attracts a group of horror hunters.
The "Gnolls" are the hegemons of the Iceridge Wasteland.
They are not humans with beast genes like "werewolves", but real Homo erectus canine monsters, cruel, bloodthirsty, and ferocious.
Just because they have a high IQ and know how to attack in groups, they are also one of the monsters that hunters are most reluctant to encounter in the wasteland.
And what they encountered in Wren was a group of more than thirty gnolls armed with various stone weapons.
Ordinary adult "gnolls" are second-order magical beasts, and the leader is third-order.
In terms of Wren's conceptual combat power, an adult gnoll can easily kill a three-headed dog rabbit.
They have a keen sense of smell and are adept at stalking and hunting.
This group of demonic beasts, if Wren encounters it alone, he will not be able to escape at all, and he will not be able to tear it to pieces in an instant.
In other words, even a medium-sized team led by a third-order [Demon Hunter] will be wiped out if it encounters it!
Fortunately, there is a big guy by his side.
Wren guessed that Ymir was very strong, so it can be seen that she was injured, and her combat power should have been damaged a lot.
Originally, he was worried that if he encountered this group of gnolls, there would be a fierce battle.
never thought that the crisis was instantly resolved by a look.
The big guy Ymir didn't make a move at all, just stomped his foot, and the ground condensed a little frost, and then he only glared, and the leader of the third-order gnoll let out a "hum" to show weakness, and the entire beast herd scattered in a hurry!
The more intelligent the beast, the more sensitive it is to danger.
They know that this human being is unmatched.
At that moment, Wren knew that the strength of this big guy was even more terrifying than he expected.
......
In this way, they hurried during the day and set up camp at night.
The two crossed the "Bakanya Heights", which has been called one of the most dangerous areas in the south of Omar, and were in distress several times...
If Leng En is alone, he probably won't survive ten lives.
Finally, a few days later, the two gradually got acquainted.
No matter how stupid Wren is, she knows that this woman is afraid that she has a secret, but she didn't mention a word along the way.
He asked bluntly: Why is she willing to take herself out when she lied.
If you are anyone, you probably won't carry a scheming burden, and it's better to fend for yourself.
But Ymir replied with a rather emotional one: "Thank you for saving me that day." Although I think you are lying to me, I still believe that you are a good person..."
At that time, Wren remembered that face in the light of the fire, it was beautiful.
At that moment, his thoughts were completely understood.
That night, because of my conscience, I felt that she was a good person, and I saved her and my own life.
This strange new world, Wren felt its kindness for the first time.
