Chapter Twenty-Seven: Dawn
The glimmer of dawn shone through.
The gray-white color did not give people the emptiness of death, but because of the slightly humid air in the early morning, it brought people a kind of hope for life.
Dawn is a very special moment.
Like the guardian god Heim, his priests believed that the Guardian could only be blessed with the Awake through good vigilance and pure loyalty, and they would normally pray for divine magic in the early morning when the sun was rising (or just after dawn).
Many good gods favor this moment of dawn.
And sometimes.
Some industrious people have also started their day's work at this time.
In the middle of a lush jungle.
A few forest deer with graceful steps are quietly appearing at the edge of the jungle, these forest deer are walking on the light hooves, very comfortable to nibble on the fresh young leaves on the edge of the jungle, the emerald green leaves are bright in the morning dew.
"Delia! Delia! There's prey, there's prey! ……”
A young man's voice full of excitement rang out under a seemingly normal mass of grass.
"Shut up! Fool! It's going to alarm your prey! ”
Another very crisp female voice hated iron and reprimanded.
Although the woman's reaction was quick, the forest deer reacted even faster, and they were visibly alert, and the taller deer in front of them immediately stopped and stared blankly at the jungle ahead.
"Damn! Do it! The female voice was a little annoyed.
"Huh? Oh! The man's voice was a little flustered.
Sou!
A sharp arrow broke through the air with a cold glow, and several forest deer immediately reacted, and the male deer did not hesitate to turn his head and prepare to rush into the depths of the jungle, and several other forest deer behind him also fled into the depths of the jungle in a panic.
A sturdy figure rushed out quickly.
The figure was like a cheetah, moving quickly, without dragging its feet, holding a strange crossbow in its hand, and constantly shooting.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Several strange noises sounded in the depths of the jungle, and under a certain stone, a large net quickly opened, and several forest deer that were caught off guard plunged into it, and after the large net opened, several small iron needles shot out.
Laugh at!
Blood splattered, and several forest deer screamed in grief, struggling in the net a few times, and soon lost their breath.
"Well done! Taneba. ”
The woman with the crossbow glanced at the prey in the distance, and couldn't help but smile and look back and praise.
"Hey......
In the middle of the haystack, a teenager dressed in a layer of camouflaged grass-colored equipment smiled a little shyly.
Seeing the young man giggling there, Delia frowned, snorted lightly, and said, "Why are you still smirking!" Don't go and pack up your prey! ”
"Oh! Oh......"
Thaneba was reprimanded by Delia, and hurriedly lowered his head and ran towards the forest deer.
"This kid! ......" Delia gritted her teeth in hatred and raised the bow and crossbow in her hand.
This is a very wild girl.
Delia was not very good-looking, but she was very slender, and even though she was covered by a rough hunter's linen robe, she could be seen to be as athletic as a cheetah.
It can be seen from the girl's temperament that her background should not be very good.
Capable and shrewd.
To know.
The forest deer is not an easily hunted creature, in the wilderness, almost every creature has its own unique abilities, the more common is sharp aggression, while the forest deer has a keen sense of insight and speed.
Don't underestimate this creature.
Many druids are very fond of incarnating as this animal, because its form has some bonuses to perception and speed, and it has a certain displacement advantage in the forest.
A forest deer, its supple fur was very popular with some nobles, and the horns on its head were even more useful, and some spellcasters occasionally used this kind of thing, and alchemists preferred it.
This Delia is very good at capturing the dynamics of her prey, and she reacts almost instantly.
Slowly walk towards the carcasses of the prey.
Delia looked at Thaneba who was diligently handling her prey, and lamented how she had agreed to bring him to this damn camp of Osmu.
This Thaneba is not suitable for this place.
Delia's parents were veteran sailors in the port of Weststream, and her father even made a few sea trips when he was young.
Some of his older brothers also have a little bit of a reputation.
Growing up in the port, Delia is no stranger to swords and everything, and the chaotic and violent environment of the port also brings this girl a touch of wildness.
Perhaps she was accustomed to hearing stories of adventures in the harbor, and the little girl's mind often longed for a great adventure.
And several of her uncles often encouraged her in this way.
Although because of this, her father was often chased and beaten by his own mother with a laundry stick.
A woman who can stay in the environment of a port is either a wandering warbler or a shrewd and strong woman.
Delia's mother is the shrewd and tough type.
Occasionally, when his father was drunk, he often remembered the stories of his youth, and when he became interested, he would shout that his mother had tied the eagle's wings.
And this Thaneba.
He was not very old, and when they first met, the young man was dressed very shabby, but he looked good with a smile.
He was a lad who grew up in a slum.
The slums and the port of the city of Xiliu are separated by a city in between.
Pine Nut Lane in the Slums.
It has always been called "Pie Alley" by the men of the port.
The nobles and adults of the Snow Rock District, the merchants and priests of the Inner Temple...... The excrement of those decent people is discharged through a long pipe into Pine Nut Alley and then into the sewer.
But speaking of the men in Pine Nut Lane.
Even the most aggressive men in the harbor grinned.
Slums are the most prone to thieves, thieves and gangsters, who rely on their own means to make a living, and the men from poor families are more desperate, after all, the single ones are not afraid to wear shoes.
The men in Songzi Lane are very ruthless, and there is a ruthlessness in them.
But this Taneba is unique.
He's smart.
This is an extremely intelligent young man, in a place like Songzi Lane, he can actually rely on his "craft" to get out of that place, and find a good job in the port.
Before meeting Delia.
This teenager always thought in fragments, saying, "One day I will go to the north to see it!" ”
No one knew what he was going to see.
But perhaps for this reason, this kid always likes to ask some sailors who go to the north to ask some about the customs of the northern part of the Salt Coast.
Fate is so wonderful.
In the harbor, Delia meets Thaneba, both of whom have a longing for the distant land, and although their personalities are different, they are surprisingly compatible.
This time.
Hearing that a hunt order had been issued in the city, Delia rushed to take Taneba on a "great adventure".
"Damn Thaneba! The people who came out of Songzi Lane actually didn't know anything about combat hunting!! I'm, my great adventure......"
Delia stared at the kid viciously, and the more she thought about it, the more angry she became.
