Chapter Seventy-One: Green Scales

"Living in the most remote courtyard in the west, even other subordinates don't want to associate with her, it seems that the human-snake hybrid is really not treated by others."

In a remote and uninhabited corner, Garten looked to the west and whispered to himself.

At his feet, a young corpse lay on the ground, strangely enough, the corpse's bare skin was already red, like a steamed prawn, the expression of fear and pain on his face, and his facial features were almost twisted, as if he had been tortured before.

Garten glanced at the young man's corpse with a calm expression, in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, except for the Demon Beast, the people who wanted to rob him had killed a lot, for this kind of thing, he had long been accustomed to it, bent down and put the corpse into the ring, and quietly walked to the west.

A faint whisper was left in place.

"Na Ring is really a good thing, you don't even need to destroy the corpse, and when the time comes, throw the corpse outside the desert, who knows..."

To the west of the Desert Iron Mercenary Regiment's station, a black shadow silently appeared in a small courtyard.

"Tsk, it's really where the subordinates live, the environment here is too far worse than other places, and even the patrols won't come here." Garten glanced at the small courtyard casually and smacked his lips.

Count the first room on the left. Garten thought about the news of the young man's torture, and his gaze swept across the courtyard until he landed in a room with the lights on.

'Hey, why are all the people I'm looking for night owls, and they don't sleep at night. Garten raised his eyebrows, and secretly vomited in his heart, and the next moment he was already outside the window of the room.

Through the opening of a corner window, Garten watched as a petite girl of about twelve or thirteen years old in a blue coarse cloth shirt was sitting cross-legged on the bed, with a handprint on her hands, and as her chest continued to rise and fall, a trace of pale white energy appeared in the room was sucked into the girl's body.

'Yes, perseverance! Garten sighed in admiration. 'You can still insist on cultivating at night, most of the people in this desert iron mercenary group can't compare to this little girl! ’

Garten has always believed that it is one thing to have talent, and it is another thing to be able to fully exert his talent, if a person's perseverance is too poor and too wasteful, even if he is given the talent of the demon, he can only eat the old book, and can only play a very small part of the talent.

For example, even if he has an external body, if he doesn't want to forge ahead and struggle, he will never be able to become a strong man, not only in terms of cultivation, but also in terms of mentality.

Garten's gaze stayed on the girl's delicate and lovely little face for a moment, and then fell on the girl's wrist exposed on the outside of the dress because of the stamp, where the snow-white skin was covered with some cyan snake scales, which set off the girl's charming temperament, and looked a little bewitching under the beating lights.

Sure enough, it is a mixed race of snakes and humans, and it can live to this age safely, even in the entire Tagore Desert, there is probably only one green scale. ’

Garten had read some records in the library of Canaan College, and it was said that because of the great difference between the two bloodlines of snake people and humans, it was difficult for snake people to live past the age of one or two by plundering the children born to human women, and examples of safe growth like green scales were even rarer.

Gaten stood outside the window and didn't bother Qing Scale's cultivation, although with her weak cultivation, even if she interrupted, it wouldn't have much impact, but Gaten still chose to wait quietly for her to complete this cultivation.

As time passed, the night became thicker and thicker, and Garten, dressed in a black power suit, almost blended with the darkness, and from a distance, people whose eyes were not sharp enough could not notice that there was still a person standing here.

Call!

The girl exhaled a breath of turbidity, slowly opened her eyes, revealing a pair of cyan eyes, sensing the subtle progress of the fighting qi in her body, and a happy expression suddenly appeared on the girl's face.

"At this rate, in a few years, I will be able to become a fighter that everyone respects." The girl clenched her small fist and whispered to herself.

Then her eyes fell on the still burning oil lamp on the table, and her face suddenly showed an anxious look, and she hurriedly put on her boots and walked towards the table.

"Oh no, I patronized my cultivation and forgot to blow out the oil lamp, if I use too much lamp oil, the next time I go to the warehouse to get it, I will definitely be scolded by those fierce mercenaries."

Just as Qing Liang walked to the table and wanted to blow out the oil lamp, the door of the room "gurgle" and someone knocked softly.

"Who is it, it's almost late at night, and you're still coming to visit the door?"

As a maid of mixed blood, her status in the Motie Mercenary Group is very humble, it would be good if others didn't mock her, how could she come here to see her, even the next few rooms were empty, and other subordinates didn't want to live in.

The man outside the door did not answer.

Although there were some doubts in his heart, Qing Liang walked over and opened the door.

With a babbling sound, the door opened, and Garten and the girl looked at each other.

With a hint of inquiry, Gaten stared at the pair of cyan eyes, clear pupils, and looked inferior and cowardly, which was probably brought about by her previous experience, but Gaten didn't care about this, he wanted to find out from it that the green scales awakened the characteristics of the blue snake three-flower pupil.

It's a pity that after a closer look for a while, I never found anything special.

"Who are you?"

Qing Liang took a few steps back vigilantly, she didn't remember seeing this person in the mercenary group.

'Is it that you haven't awakened the blue snake three-flower pupil yet?' Just as Garten looked away with some disappointment, out of the corner of his eye, he seemed to see a foreign object suddenly flash in the pair of cyan pupils.

Garten's eyes instantly sharpened, and he stared at Qing Scale's eyes again, but unfortunately they were still crystal clear.

'Delusion? ’

"No, it should be her blue snake three-flower pupil that has just begun to awaken, so the time it has appeared is very short! Garten firmly believed in his own judgment, although his cultivation was not very high, but such a thing as dazzle would definitely not appear to him.

Green Scale was frightened by the momentary change in Garten, and took a few steps back, but almost tripped over the boots he didn't wear.

The girl opened her mouth and was about to shout, but Garten had already come back to her senses, and with a wave of her palm, a stream of air poured directly into the girl's mouth, making her swallow all the sounds she wanted to make.

"Ahem!" The girl bent over and coughed violently, as if choked on the air current.

"I'm sorry." Garten looked at the girl who was a little uncomfortable and apologized to her softly, but his tone was calm and insincere. "Because I didn't want to alarm the others, I saw that you wanted to scream again, so I used some small means to stop it."

Qing Liang quickly eased up, but the little face showed a frightened expression, and the petite body trembled slightly, like a frightened rabbit, after that moment just now, she already knew that if the young man standing outside the door wanted to kill her, it didn't take much effort at all, and she couldn't even make a sound for help.

"Who are you? What's the matter? Qing Liang asked timidly, her body stiffened and stood in place, she didn't even dare to make other moves now, for fear of arousing the young man's killing intent.

Seeing the girl's pitiful appearance, Garten immediately reacted, knowing that his performance just now scared the other party, and tried to soften his face, he didn't come here to kill people, but to take away Qing Scale, there was no need for her to be afraid of herself.

"Your name is Green Scale, right? I have been secretly observing you during this time, and I found that you have awakened a rare kind of eye pupil - the blue snake three-flower pupil, are you willing to follow me to cultivate. Garten said truthfully, he didn't need to explain to the other party truthfully, after all, he learned that the news that the other party would awaken the blue snake Sanhua Pupil came from the memory of his previous life, and he would never leak this to anyone.

"Blue Snake... Three-flower pupils? Qing Liang struggled to recite the unfamiliar name, and when she read the word 'snake', her body trembled visibly, apparently causing her some bad memories.

"That's right, this special eye pupil usually only appears on people of mixed human and snake blood, and once it is fully mature, its host can be called a strong even in the vast Douqi Continent." Garten said lightly, "But if there is no one to guide you, even if you awaken this special eye pupil, it will be difficult for you to play an effective role, let alone become a strong person." ”

"If you are willing to follow me, I can guide you in your cultivation, and I am also a third-grade alchemist, and the elixir I have refined is enough to support your current cultivation needs."

To add to his persuasion, Garten stretched out his right hand, and a golden flame flexibly changed shapes on his fingertips.

Qing Liang looked at the golden flame that turned into a rabbit and a lion for a while, and subconsciously swallowed her saliva, and didn't even notice the young man mentioning her origin, although the flame did not come from the slightest heat wave, but the dangerous feeling from the other half of the blood reminded her that the power of this golden flame was enough to burn her to ashes...

'Can I say no?' ’

Qing Liang looked at the young man's calm eyes like the deep sea, his thin body trembled, swallowed back what he wanted to say, his little face tried to squeeze out a smile, and stammered: "I... willing".
