Chapter 115: Mocking Face
The meat is cut into small pieces, the meat on the peeled branches is grilled golden brown, the fat is poured from the skewers, and the edible mushrooms and wild vegetables that are sandwiched between the pieces of meat are dripping into the fire to make a sizzling sound.
Because they were almost baked, Alice only occasionally tossed them to make them more fully heated. Alyssa asks the maid girl about cooking, and she also helps Alice by the way. The leprechauns still had meat left over from hunting, and they were ready to cook a pot of fragrant broth after taking the skewers off.
Sivi, who had already returned from fetching water, stared at the meat skewers and swallowed his saliva like Theo.
Sophia, on the other hand, found a book from nowhere, and was reading it on the fire...... It's just that the girl's eyes drift to the fire from time to time, and it is obvious that under the influence of the smell of meat and hunger, she cannot concentrate on reading as usual.
During this time, Sivi noticed Sophia's small movements, and threw a self-confessed kind smile at her, but for some reason she was glared at by the girl, and then Sophia buried her face in the book and never lifted it again until the meal began.
It's just that the girl's face doesn't know if it's because of the reflection of the fire, or for other reasons, a gorgeous flush is extraordinarily attractive......
Sivi had tasted Alice's craft back in the days of Ilianne Academy, and this time although the ingredients were insufficient and the seasoning was only edible salt, the flawless barbecue technique still made Sivi enjoy eating - especially after Sasangsan was frowning and munching on the charred rabbit meat as a reference.
His own happiness is indeed based on the comparison with the misfortune of others, and Sivi has a deep understanding of this today.
After eating. There was no entertainment in the wilderness, and although there was wine in the goods, the merchants had to get up early tomorrow to make their way, and the mercenaries had to keep vigil. It is also impossible to let go of drinking. At the end of the day, only a few vigils can be left, and the rest go to bed a little earlier.
At this time, Xiwei was having another headache - how to get a copy in this situation?
He slept in the living room in the center of the tent, Sophia and Alice in the room on the right, and Alyssa and Theo in the room on the left.
Do you want to use the convenience of going out as an excuse to brush copies? So what if the dungeon takes a little longer? Is it convenient to fall into the pit halfway......
Why don't you go out and keep vigil with those demon swordsmen? Regardless of whether those demon swordsmen are willing or not, even if they really let Xiwei keep vigil. Could he still put aside other people's lives and derelict himself to play a copy? Obviously, that won't work either.
After thinking about it, Xiwei had no choice but to give up today's copy opportunity, and it had already been wasted when it was updated yesterday anyway. Wouldn't mind wasting it again. Besides, I can get to Yonia County tomorrow, and then I can go into a hotel and lock the door and brush it again.
Having finally made such a decision, Sivi was planning to study the academy system a little to see if there would be any new discoveries, and then get a good night's sleep and be fully prepared for tomorrow's journey. Outside, however, there was a slight commotion.
He frowned, no more in the wild than in the academy. If there is any disturbance in the academy at night, Sivida can ignore it and let the other professors and faculty members solve it. But here is the wild. And there is no other combat power around except for the seven demon swordsmen who are not very strong, and at this time, if one is not careful, the boat will capsize in the gutter. Therefore, the necessary vigilance is indispensable.
He opened the opening that was the door to the tent and found that the campfire outside had been extinguished. The only one of the two demon swordsmen on the night vigil was a large man, holding a two-handed heavy iron sword, looking around nervously. …,
As Sivi stepped out of the tent, the other six magic swordsmen emerged from one of the tents at the edge of the camp.
It seems that the other magic swordsman went to call out the others.
"Is there anything approaching?" Sivi recognized at a glance that the campfire was not extinguished naturally, but was doused with a bucket of water. There is only one reason to extinguish the bonfire in this case, and that is because of the presence of monsters around.
Unlike the real world, many of the monsters in this world are not afraid of flames, but some of them are phototaxis like moths. Lighting a fire alone in the jungle is not only difficult to drive away monsters, but it is also easier to become a target for them.
The purpose of extinguishing the fire is to make the monster lose its target, and to use the pungent smell of smoke to mask its own scent as much as possible. Of course, for monsters with various abilities, it is difficult to say how effective this method is.
"Yo, this mage uncle, don't come out casually, go back to the tent and hide." The speaker was a man in orange leather armor with an airplane head, his weapon resembling the kind of bayonet with conical gauntlets found in the Olympic foil event.
Since the day, this guy seems to be unaccustomed to seeing Xiwei, and now when he speaks, although the content is not bad, the tone is full of contempt.
No way, who made Sivi look so young, and he was also wearing a mage robe that looked like the standard clothing of magicians, and the wide robe covered Sivi's strong muscles, always gave people a feeling that he was very thin, plus the girls around him. This all makes people think that he is the eldest young master of a rich family, paid a lot of 'sponsorship money', bought the title of magician in disguise in some private magic academies, and then took a group of money-worshipping girls out to mix the experience......
"Nino, shut up!" The man with the heavy iron sword in both hands scolded.
Although his impression of Sivi is similar to that of the nose of an airplane, there is no need to offend people for this. After all, compared to some big households, their small mercenary group is really not worth mentioning.
"Good boss, I won't say it." The head of the plane, known as Nino, spread his hands in disapproval, then drew his sword pinned to his waist, and after casting a disdainful glance at Sivi, he began to look around as well.
What is this called...... Standing at the door of the tent, Xiwei looked at those demon swordsmen with a smile, he just wanted to know what happened to Lu Dao, because Mao could be hostile like this? Could it be that he has the same aura of ridicule as those dot girl protagonists?
However, although ordinary people can't detect it, as a magician whose spiritual power is different from ordinary people, Xiwei does feel that there is something around him.
The demon swordsmen, on the other hand, sensed a faint smell of blood in the air, and the man known as the boss had judged from some of his own experience that this smell of blood was peculiar to human blood - which obviously did not bode well.
Soon, even without relying on their mental power and sense of smell, they could sense that something was approaching.
The rustle of leaves against something was rapidly approaching this direction, and when they got close enough to see the shaking of the bushes, their eyes were accustomed to the darkness.
Immediately afterward, a man in ragged clothes sprang out of the bushes and immediately fell to the ground as if he had lost his strength.
Seeing this, the head of the plane seemed to want to step forward to see what was going on, but the man known as the boss immediately shouted: "Be careful! ”
The next moment, a silver-white giant wolf suddenly jumped out from behind that person, it was a frost-toothed wolf (crusade level 8), white frost marks appeared on the leaves around it, and the whole body was still emitting white mist because of the low temperature, the giant wolf ignored those magic swordsmen, opened his mouth wide, and Sen Han's huge canine teeth bit hard at the person who fell to the ground! …,
Even the head of the nearest plane couldn't rush to rescue that person, so they could only watch as the frost-toothed wolf was about to bite off that person's neck!
At this moment, a fireball suddenly broke into everyone's field of vision, and then slashed a small arc like an eye, hitting the stomach of the frost-toothed wolf, making the giant wolf scream and flying back into the bushes in a whirlwind, and then a flash of fire rose into the sky, and the hot gas rushed to the face, making the demon swordsmen who had not yet reacted feel that their faces were blown painfully, but the person who fell to the ground was not affected.
The first to react was the man known as the boss, who looked in the direction where the fireball flew out, only to see Xiwei looking indifferently in the direction of the flames, and the hand stretched out from the mage's robe snapped his fingers lightly, and then the water that appeared out of thin air extinguished the flames that were spreading in the jungle, avoiding a forest fire that would destroy the lives of the people.
That kind of miraculous spell-casting ability made the strong man stunned for a long time, and then the gears of his brain creaked again.
At this time, he already understood that the young man who was covered in a magic robe and wore a certain outdated wizard hat was not a rich second generation who came out to mix seniority or something, but was a truly powerful magician like those who appeared in various legends and stories and could wipe out their group two or three times with a wave of his hand!
Just when the 'boss' was still worried that his members seemed to have offended such a strongman, that one hit the street as soon as he appeared...... Well, I mean the man who fell to the ground finally struggled to get up, and then he spotted the swordsmen who had not reacted to the fireball coming so suddenly, and were still posing for the frost-toothed wolf.
Then, when he finally got up, he pushed Jin Shan down and knelt down with a pop, begging with tears in his eyes, ignoring the wounds on his body that were still bleeding.
