45.Chapter 45
After hesitating for three seconds, Kemera finally made up its mind, and sped towards the minecart, with a little spark in its mouth - and at this time, the minecart finally passed the gentle slope and entered the acceleration phase, and Roddy, who was sneaking, jumped on the minecart without turning his head back, and then threw Sally into the minecart.
Sally fell stiffly on her back, she didn't understand why Roddy did this, but before she could ask, a deafening roar accompanied by orange light instantly filled her entire field of vision.
The scorching flames erupted from the mouth of the Kemera beast, but due to the extremely fast speed of the minecart, the flames could not catch up with the minecart's ass, but the aftermath of the impact still blew over the minecart, making Roddy's hair and back feel an unspeakable scorching heat...
Sally instinctively closed her eyes, but she also understood why Roddy had knocked herself down - if she had been sitting so stupidly just now, I'm afraid her whole face would have burned off by now, right?
The minecart that continued to speed away was beyond the reach of the Kemera mon, so it could only watch as the minecart disappeared from view, and finally let out an angry and useless howl and turned back to the cave.
Inside the minecart, Roddy gasped and climbed out of Sally.
"Ge Laozi! This is terrifying... Sooner or later, I'll kill you..."
He cursed like this because he was really a little scared in his heart, and when he came back to his senses, he found that Sally was blushing under him - he immediately wanted to get up in embarrassment, but the palm that stretched out to support his body was pressed on Sally's chest impartially because of a "just right" bump in the minecart.
Even though Roddy told her to use the strip of cloth as tight as possible, it couldn't hide the fact that she was developing well. Roddy only felt as if he was holding down a ball under his palm that would slip away at any time. Dough?
"My day—"
Rondy, who came back to his senses, remembered what he had touched, and he raised his palm violently, but because of the excessive movement, he almost flipped directly out of the car.
In front of her, Sally, who sat up, silently covered her chest, lowered her head and said nothing.
The atmosphere suddenly felt like it was going to freeze.
"Me. Just now. I...... That's—"
"Mix... Bastard!"
Roddy feels that he is really unlucky, he just escaped from the bottom of the monster, and now he guesses that Sally wants to kill himself again...
He looked at the girl curled up in the dark, swallowed hard, and found that the other party didn't seem to have the intention of pursuing it to death, and his heart was slightly settled.
My hapless boy... Let's take it one step at a time.
The minecart continued to move with a clatter, and Roddy no longer wanted to think about the mess, and raised his head again vigilantly to stare ahead, and put his hand on the brake lever. But then as luck would have it, after half an hour's journey, the minecart finally reached the end of the tunnel, the southern end of the Endel Mountains.
The air in the tunnel was so cold that Sally felt a lot warmer outside when she walked out of the cave, but she didn't seem to have recovered from the "chest attack" incident when she jumped out of the minecart - the feeling in her heart was very subtle, angry? Sally, who had always been sober, knew that Roddy didn't mean to, so she was angry, but she didn't have much hatred. And what scares her the most is...
The moment Roddy touched her chest just now, Sally was surprisingly surprised to find that deep down, she didn't seem to have much disgust.
This feeling made Sally a little flustered, and for a moment she didn't even know how to continue communicating with Roddy - in fact, Sally's eyes never took off him as Roddy looked ahead intently all the way.
Why can't you control your gaze?
The more Sally thought about it, the more she felt as if she had fallen into a strange circle, so she simply stopped talking and followed Roddy forward.
Roddy, who was walking in front, didn't pay attention to the changes in Sally, he was looking at the valuable gains in his backpack at this time, secretly planning how to strengthen his attributes next.
There are more than twenty Kemera beast scales in a whole backpack, and there are more than twenty pieces of "purple" and one hundred and seventy-nine pieces of "blue"!
According to Luo Di's estimate, these scales can make two sets of full-body leather armor, and the attributes are definitely the best of the current level!
Thinking back to the time when I was level 4, it was simply a tattered, not to mention the equipment with the blue prefix, there was a green Dole fart upside down, and now? If you rely on your own craftsmanship, the equipment made of these things is absolutely blue and purple, and even if this equipment is calibrated to level 4, its overall attributes plus added value will definitely be able to completely explode level 8 green equipment.
At the beginning, the first batch of guilds that went to fight the Ke Myra Beast estimated that they had made a lot of money because of these scales, and after thinking about it carefully, Luo Di did see a large number of Ke Myra Beast scales in the auction house at once, and he thought that this cheap let Luo Di pick it up, and I have to say that he was not bad luck every time he was unlucky.
Turning his gaze to another object, Roddy looked at the ring he had found from the skeleton and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Dusty rings
Quest items are unique
Strength +2
Gain +1 Constitution
Required Level: 5
"The gem above the base seems to be missing. ”
It turned out to be a quest item, Roddy was a little surprised, but then relieved - there are many things that start with the items he has picked up, and he has done no less than a hundred similar quests himself, but speaking of these things is like buying a lottery ticket, if you are lucky enough to catch up with the epic quest chain, you will definitely make a lot of money, but if you are unlucky.
Roddy has seen the unlucky ghost who smashed nearly 10,000 gold coins to make a quest chain and ended up with a useless pet.
The current ring can only be equipped and triggered when it reaches level five, so Roddy wears it on his hand to prevent it from being lost, but unexpectedly, the ring is extremely slender and can only be worn on the little finger - equipping items will not gain any attribute bonuses when the level is not reached, so at this time Roddy still maintains the level 4 "naked" attribute.
After leaving the tunnel, the two of them were located halfway up the mountainside of the mine, surrounded by trees, and the smell of birds and flowers was like a group. Because it was early in the morning, the temperature that was comfortable at first felt a little cold after a while, but when the morning light illuminated the earth, the coldness also disappeared.
Walking with tired steps, Sally felt that she had walked more in the past few days than she had in her whole life, and there was still some unreal alienation in her mind, and when the two finally came to a hillside with a wide view, Sally who raised her head and looked into the distance froze.
In the field of vision, the huge outline of Hollier City has already appeared.
"We... It really did. ?”
Although Luo Di had already said such a result in advance, when she really saw the scene in front of her, the shock in her heart was still indescribable.
But what followed was a sudden panic.
Sally's originally rational thinking seemed to have become extremely emotional in the past few days, and following behind Roddy, she raised her head to look at the back of the other party who still insisted on moving forward after a day and night, and inexplicably felt a touch of sadness appear in her heart.
In just a few days, the originally strange guy in front of him seems to have an indescribable tacit understanding with himself, as well as a... Strange "friendship". It was only through these dangers that Sally could truly understand how much risk he had taken to save himself, but after the other party had done so much, he didn't even make any unnecessary requests-
Is it really what he said? All he did so that "the country would not be ruined in the future at the hands of a bunch of brutes"?
Whether what Roddy said was true or not, Sally felt a heavy burden at this time - unlike any nobleman she had come into contact with before, Roddy in front of her didn't seem to like to talk about words like "save the country", but all his actions were obviously working towards this goal.
That inexplicable firmness and calmness sometimes become the "charm" in the eyes of others.
"Roddy, when you return to Hollier... Where are you going?"
Eventually, she asked the question softly.
Roddy, who was carrying his luggage, seemed to have an answer, shook his head and said, "After confirming that you enter the city safely, I still have some things to do, and I will stay here for a few days, but I should meet you again before leaving." ”
"Really?"
Sally raised her eyebrows, feeling some inexplicable emotions in her heart because of Roddy's parting. But the other party's words made most of the depression in her heart dissipate for no reason.
"Be careful of your own safety, even if the 'Rosicrucifer' can shelter you, and be careful of Francis's determination to break the net. When people really abandon all the bottom line, it is often even more terrible than you think. ”
Roddy tightened his bags, turned his head sideways, and suddenly asked, "Are we friends now?"
Sally was used to him asking such inexplicable questions, so she nodded without hesitation and said, "Why not?"
Then she saw Roddy's gaze lift a little, as if looking at the top of her head with some distraction, as if she had seen something new above her head—Sally looked up and found that she could only see the green branches and the blue sky.
She won't know that Roddy is checking her character status at this time, the previous inquiry is a form similar to "add a private friend", only the two sides who are added as private friends in the game can carefully check each other's character status: including level, equipment, attributes and titles, if it is just an ordinary friend, you can only see the level and title, if it is a stranger, after the distance is close, you can show the approximate level range.
At this time, Roddy saw that Sally's level was level 7, which was not low, and it should depend on her background and aristocratic background. Although the level is higher than Roddy, because it belongs to the template of the game NPC and is a woman, the two attributes of "strength" and "constitution" are not as good as him at all, but the two attributes of "intelligence" and "spirit" are particularly prominent. At this, Roddy frowned slightly—could it be that the heirs of the Rusiflon family were all suitable for extremely rare legal professions?
The so-called "rare" is in terms of NPCs, after all, players can choose their own future paths, but in terms of the population quality of the Karen Kingdom itself, even if it is a noble, the number of people who can eventually become a legal profession is extremely rare.
Duke Roussifron only has these two children, and both of them have the talent to become a legal profession, which is an extremely rare thing in itself, Francis is already an elemental, and Sally's talent seems to be. Is it a priest belonging to the "Rosicrucian" line?
But none of this makes sense of how she resists the scorpion toxin, because it is impossible for an unconverted priest to use the skill of "poison exorcism". Roddy was puzzled, turned his gaze back to Sally's face, saw the other party looking at him suspiciously, and immediately touched his pocket, and handed her the voodoo dice that he had previously collected from the orc camp.
"Something suddenly comes to mind, and it's useful to you. ”
Anyway, it is intellectual, Roddy only makes the best use of things, and his player consciousness is still very heavy, but he doesn't know that the doubts in Sally's heart are even worse at this time.
After all, who would look at these things that only orc witch doctors would use?Bone joints, shells, and unnamed things, Sally reached out to take them, but she didn't know why Roddy said that.
"This is the trophy I got from the orcs before, and it belongs to an orc witch doctor. How to say it... Its owner is probably the guy who will pose the biggest threat to the kingdom in the future. Scold... If one day you feel powerless to continue fighting, hopefully it will remind you of what I said today. ”
Roddy originally wanted to casually make up a reason for her to take with her, but the words turned into a solemn "entrustment". Sally was a little stunned for a moment, and when she saw Roddy turn around and move on, she realized that what she was holding might not be as simple as it seemed.
Trotting to keep up with Roddy, she felt as if she had countless words to say in her heart, but looking at the back in front of her, Sally finally swallowed these words silently.
