Chapter 16: Warning Signs
Xu Mo, who was sitting incognito at the top of the slope, opened his mouth wide, unaware that the cranberry cake in his hand that served as lunch had fallen silently to the ground, bouncing down the hill and smashing on a branch on the ground behind the elf ranger.
Wen Leisha stiffened her body, turned around slowly, the corner of her eyes quickly swept over the pastry, and then wrinkled her small nose, looked at the hillside with a fierce expression, and roared in a low voice, "Come out, I know you're on it!" ”
Looking at the elf's beautiful eyes slitting around, Xu Mo knew that she couldn't see through her invisibility, she was just intimidating herself. However, the top of the slope was obviously not a place to stay for a long time, so Xu Mo stood on tiptoe and slowly moved in the direction away from the elves. At this time, it is definitely not a good idea to appear in front of the old embarrassed elf ranger.
As soon as Xu Mo moved not far away, Wen Leisha rushed up to the top of the slope like a whirlwind, searching everywhere for his traces. Xu Mo's face flushed, trying to suppress the urge to laugh wildly. If it was Brigitte who attacked Wen Leisa just now, he would have laughed at most and didn't care, after all, the beautiful knight had already established a scrupling image in the minds of everyone.
But it was the elf ranger who was mischievous, and the impact of the scene just now on Xu Mo was too great. completely subverted the image of the innocent and pure elf girl in his mind.
"Come out quickly!" The Elven Ranger gritted his teeth and growled as he looked at the obvious butt marks on the slope top turf.
"Huh?!" The continuous movement finally woke up the beautiful knight, Bridget stood up, grabbed the fluffy red hair, frowned and pulled the chain mail on her upper body, and then her face changed, and she felt the hot pain in her buttocks.
The beautiful knight turned sideways, lifted her dress and looked at it, and immediately found that she still had a faint slap mark on her buttocks. Bridget immediately raised her head and glared at Winnessa, who was standing at the top of the slope, pretending to be casual and looking around. Even if she didn't have Xu Mo's eyesight, she could see that this palm print belonged to the elf with a slender palm.
"Ah~~~ Who kicked me!" Luo Ning, who was still snoring, suddenly let out a painful cry, jumped up from the ground, and rubbed his thighs with a sad face.
"Ahem!" Xu Mo coughed twice and showed his figure from Luo Ning's side. He also has no choice, if he doesn't show up again, I'm afraid the two beauties will have to stage a sumo wrestling match.
"Amira is hungry!" The dwarf girl rolled on the ground, sat up with her stomach in her hands, and put her fingers in her mouth and sucked.
"Ah, pastry!" The dwarf girl's eyes lit up, and when she saw the cranberry cake that Xu Mo had dropped on the ground, she immediately used her hands and feet together and crawled towards it.
"That can't be eaten, this one is for you!" Xu Mo grabbed her trouser belt, lifted her in the air, took out a piece of cake from his arms again and stuffed it into her hand, and at the same time kicked the cake on the ground to prevent her from picking it up and eating it while everyone was not paying attention.
"Humph!" Seeing that everyone had woken up, Bridget took a breath and glanced at the Elven Ranger with anger.
Wen Leisha turned her head, pretending that she didn't see it, then remembered something, and glared at Xu Mo viciously. If it weren't for Xu Mo, Bridget wouldn't have woken up so quickly, and naturally wouldn't have found that she had been attacked in her sleep.
"Cole, are you going to go again?" Luo Ning asked with a sad face.
The mage's mental power is indeed strong, and now he is slowly starting to adapt to this full-time roller coaster, although he will still be dizzy, but as long as he lies quietly in the hanging basket, he no longer has to spit out everything he has eaten.
"No, we've already arrived at Rockmodan, this is the sphere of influence of Ironforge, and apart from a few wild animals, there are basically no humanoid evil creatures. After flying for several days, we are all tired, and now it is almost afternoon, we rest for half a day and leave again tomorrow morning. Xu Mo said with a smile.
"Well, that's fine!" Ronin breathed a sigh of relief, stretched, and lay down on the turf again.
Winlessa and Britsa also breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, Britsa looked up at the lake in the distance, her eyes lit up, and she approached Winlessa and whispered something. Wen Leisha hesitated, a little unsure.
Bridgett suddenly became annoyed, pointed to the lake, and then to the hem of her dress, and whispered a few words angrily. Wen Leisha finally blushed and nodded in agreement.
"Luo Ning, come here!" After the two beauties reached an agreement, Wen Leisha smiled and beckoned to Luo Ning, signaling him to come over.
After listening to the instructions of the two beauties, the mage hesitated for a moment, but finally did not dare to go against the will of the two beauties, and agreed with a bitter face.
"Cole, can you stay with me for the next few hours, don't stay with me incognito?" Walking back to Xu Mo's side, Luo Ning frowned and made a strange suggestion.
"Hehe, good!" Xu Mo's eyes flashed, and he already understood what the two beauties wanted to do, "However, let them pay attention to their safety, and bring Amira over by the way!" ”
"Do you know what they're going to do?" Luo Ning asked in surprise.
"What's this, they've been holding it for a few days, and now it's on the edge of Lake Locke, can they not want to go down and wash?" Looking at Luo Ning's silly and honest expression, Xu Mo finally couldn't help laughing, "When they come back, we'll also take a cold shower!" ”
……
In the early morning, Lok Lake is cold and damp, surrounded by layers of hills, and the abundant rainfall and the water vapor evaporated by the sun cannot be dissipated due to the topography. The surface of the lake is shrouded in a hazy mist all year round, and from a distance, it looks like a dreamy wonderland in a fairy tale.
In the dense grass by the lake, a small furry animal is bouncing around in search of fresh grass seeds to be eaten in the mouth. This small creature has bright fiery red eyes, a split upper lip, two unusually long ears, and a long pink fur all over its body, called the long-eared velvet rabbit, and is a timid herbivore.
The long-eared velvet rabbit searched for grass seeds, and at the same time vigilantly pricked up its long ears and listened to the movements around it.
"Whoosh!" A long, blue-pole arrow flew out of the trees like lightning and shot at the long-eared velvet rabbit.
The long-eared velvet rabbit's big pink ears twitched, and he jumped to the side with agility, turning around and about to jump into the bushes. But the long arrow of the green pole made a strange arc, bypassed the two trees that stood in the way, and with a "poof", shot through the rabbit's belly, and pinned it firmly to the grass.
"Ahh In the woods by the lake, a ball-like figure rushed out and staggered towards the rabbit.
With the appearance of Amira, the fiery beautiful knight and the triumphant elf ranger also appeared side by side, and the elf ranger who made a contribution with one arrow seemed to be in a good mood.
Seeing Amira walking back with the fat rabbit, Xu Mo's eyes became green. In the past few days, he has eaten too much cold, hard dry food, and now he is especially eager to drink a sip of hot broth.
"Gollum!" A loud voice came from Xu Mo's side, and the stalker turned his head to see that it was the sound of the mage swallowing saliva. The two glanced at each other, and found that each other had a greedy look on their faces that could not be concealed, and they couldn't help but smile awkwardly at each other.
"Hey, no, get ready to fight!" Xu Mo's face suddenly changed, and he unfolded his steps and rushed towards Amira in front of him.
When he arrived at her side, Xu Mo grabbed the fat on the back of the dwarf girl's neck, lifted her up like a kitten, and threw her backwards. At the same time, with a flick of one hand, the sharp tip of the "Nightmare of San Cice" was aimed at his front.
Xu Mo's movements surprised the three people behind him, and Bridget's reaction was fast, and with both hands raised, she unloaded the one-handed axe and small square shield from behind her, and strode forward. A flash of anger flashed in the eyes of the beautiful knight, this was her dissatisfaction with herself, as a knight who charged forward, she was actually behind a stalker when danger came.
Wen Leisha quickly hid behind a large tree, clenched the bow and arrow in her hand, and there was also a trace of annoyance in her eyes. Although Stalkers are also excellent scouts, this is the forest, and as an elven ranger who has integrated himself into nature, it would be a grave dereliction of duty not to spot potential dangers first.
The mage's performance was not as quick as that of the two female companions, but his choice was not bad. Although he couldn't find cover in the first place, he noticed Amira who was thrown over by Xu Mo, and hurriedly reached out to pick her up from mid-air.
The heavy body of the dwarf girl made the thin mage overwhelmed, and he rolled into a ball with her, and for a moment he withdrew from the distance, not worrying about the danger coming soon.
Xu Mo's perception did not deceive him, and in the depths of the woods pointed by the tip of the Nightmare Knife of Saint Cice, there were several stumbling figures, rushing towards them.
