Chapter 232 Be an Audience
Artoria commanded the idle men in the village to drive thick wooden stakes into the ground, and although the vegetation on the grassland was dominated by endless pastures, the trees could still be found if they were carefully searched. The tall wooden stakes are two meters long, and ordinary beasts will never be able to turn over.
And if it's a beast that has already generated magic in its body, it will definitely be discovered if you get close. In addition to the wooden stakes, there are quite a few traps and traps, because these defenses are originally used as a defense against wild beasts, so the defense measures against humans can be regarded as basically none.
Of course, there is a reason for this, after all, the orcs, as nomadic people, have no habit of plundering each other in this season of abundant water and grass in modern times. What's more, the current orc race has just experienced a war with humans. Just like the beasts that have just been killed, they all hide in the corners and lick their wounds, and they are not interested in fighting again.
"It needs to be a little more solid here, the current level simply can't withstand a few bumps from the beast." Artoria slammed the wooden stake in front of her into the ground, and then watched them reinforce the unqualified wooden stake, and when she saw Xia Bai, she gently beckoned to him and motioned for him to come over and take a look.
"There aren't many beasts I've come into contact with in this world, can you stop a magical beast to this extent?" The reinforced stake of the Battle of Artoria asked, and in this way, Xia Bai was pulled by her to study the defenses all morning, and it was not until the beginning of lunch that Xia Bai had a chance to rest.
Lunch was bread and slices of meat, and after a while, Xia Bai's meal was basically watching Artoria feast. Xia Bai leaned back, leaned on the wooden stake behind him and fell asleep, this time Xia Bai felt even sweeter than last night's sleep, when he woke up, the sun had already half sunk below the horizon.
After waking up, Xia Bai didn't speak, silently looking at the clouds dyed red in the sky, although the morning's work was not easy, but for Xia Bai today, he was not so tired that he fell asleep.
"Woke up? You still look very tired. Artoria on the side walked over, and it was obvious that she could see that Xia Bai did not fall asleep because of the tiredness of the morning's work.
Xia Bai rubbed his hair indiscriminately: "How to say it, I always feel an impatient mood when I participate in this Holy Grail War with inexplicable rules, this emotion I have felt when I first came to this world, alas, in short, I feel that it seems too hypocritical to say it, not to mention that I am very uncomfortable." ”
"So you can only say it to me, feeling very guilty in the face of the two heroic spirits who have protected me all the way?" Artoria walked over and sat down with her back to the stake, too: "You know what, I've felt that way too. And more than once, this emotion arises because of stress, you can call it responsibility. ”
"Don't underestimate it, I broke the sword in the stone because I despised its existence, and then I firmly held it in my hand, and I didn't dare to relax for a moment, and finally you also saw the result - King Arthur who doesn't understand people's hearts." Artoria leaned back against the stake and looked at the sky, and even though some things had been relieved, she could still feel a hint of bitterness when she mentioned them again.
"Actually, it doesn't matter whether you succeed or not, this incident is just a test of the bottom line of this world by the two major inhibitory forces, we guys are just some guinea pigs, and you are an important key, no matter what the final result is, it will not affect you too much, take it easy." After saying that, Artoria gently patted Xia Bai on the shoulder.
"Do you carry what others can't carry?" Looking at Artoria's departing figure, Xia Bai murmured softly: "I really miss the old otaku life, and the biggest problem is just that there is no money kryptonite." Isn't the traverser supposed to be comfortable and enjoyable, why is it so troublesome to come to me? ”
"Is she comforting you? It doesn't sound like Ah" Baixiang's figure appeared beside Xia Bai, and she didn't dare to relax for a moment about Xia Bai's safety. "Well, her comforting technique may be clumsy. But thanks to him, a lot of things that I hadn't figured out before finally figured out. ”
The next morning, I woke up from work and saw a busy camp. As if everyone could find what they should do, after a brief farewell to Artoria, Xia Bai took the two heroic spirits and set out on the journey again, and the three of them who said goodbye to the tribe stepped into the lush grassland again.
Thanks to the fact that there is no traditional time limit for this Holy Grail War, otherwise, it is estimated that this grassland has been turned into a pot of porridge now, how can there be time for Xia Bai to wander around here while thinking of a way to crack it. Of course, this time will definitely not be very long, and like the last Dragon Vein, the system will automatically promote the development of the Holy Grail War.
However, even if there is no systematic promotion, Xia Bai, who is at the center of the whirlpool of fate in the dark, will always be troubled to come to the door. For example, Xiang Ji, who is eating white food now, compared to Artoria, King Arthur, Xia Bai can't feel which of them is stronger, but in terms of the amount of food alone, the two can be said to be equal.
At least now Xia Bai oh no, it should be said that half of the sheep that Di Lumuduo caught for dinner have already entered his stomach, and the sheep in this world are terrifyingly large after having magic power. As the overlord of Western Chu, who was so famous in Chinese history that it exploded, Xia Bai now seriously suspected that he had not only relied on martial arts to suppress an era, but also probably had enough food.
"Are you interested in meeting Yingzheng, I think he may be the best person you can convince." Xiang Ji, who was full, sent an invitation to Xia Bai, and in this way, he followed Xiang Ji Xia Bai and the others to change the direction of progress. On the way forward, the only thing Xia Bai was curious about was that wouldn't the two of them fight when they saw each other?
Of course, he didn't know that the two had already fought before, and it seemed that neither of them was very happy with the result of that one. Well, if Xia Bai knew, he might try to hide as far away as possible when the two met, so that he wouldn't almost be directly slapped away by the black halberd.
Even if he gave him another brain, he probably wouldn't have thought of it, and the first thing the two of them did when they met was to copy the guy directly. Xia Bai now seriously suspected that the only purpose Xiang Ji brought him in was to add an audience. In this way, no matter who defeats whom on both sides, there will be a witness, so it may seem that it makes more sense for Xia Bai to hide in the pit now.
