Volume 2 [Dark Tide] Chapter 165: Nata's Thoughts
Looking around, the thorn bushes of Elsa's village disappeared, and the corpses all over the ground made it look like hell
The wreckage of shattered, stacked, broken tendons abounds, from the smallest rat to the largest bony elephant, most of the common and uncommon animals in the forest are stacked here, and under the orders of the village chief Brudy, the wood elves have begun to deal with the aftermath in an orderly manner. Speaking of which, they can be called happy and sad: the happy is that they can spend almost the whole winter eating meat, and the sad thing is... Previously, due to the impact of the two-horned rhinoceros, an elf fell to the ground, and at this time, even the body could not be found.
However, this is already the best result, and the village of Elsa has been held after all, which is much better for the wood elves than the damage caused by displacement. And Brudy also said directly: Roddy will be the "eternal friend" of the elves of Elsa's village.
Roddy understands... With this sentence, the reputation of the "Wood Elf" jumped directly from "cold" to "friendly".
And after this battle, the eyes of all the elves looking at Roddy have completely changed - no amount of nonsense is comparable to a convincing action, Roddy's act of saving Elsa Village is seen by all the wood elves, so their previous ignorance and disdain have completely disappeared, replaced by a deep sense of gratitude and curiosity.
Feeling the sights projected by those nothing, Luo Di secretly pinched a sweat in his heart..."Turning the tide" sounds easy, but there is also an element of luck in it, if there is another wave of beast tide, he really has no way at all.
However, thinking of the arrow that killed the level 18 bone armor giant elephant in seconds, Luo Di was finally satisfied in his heart, because this was the highest damage he could achieve at the moment - with the skill, ring, arrow, and epic short bow with the highest damage value at the moment, Luo Di's [Concentration Shot] crit damage just now actually reached 2049
The flat fire damage of the green short bow before was around 20, but now the [Ice Crystal Thorn] is like a shotgun after the reload, and the flat shot has a panel damage of nearly 60, and with the burst arrow, there is a total of 3% scoop damage increase of [Concentrating Shot] and [Eagle Eye Stone Ring], plus about 10 times the floating critical damage after shooting the eye... The miracle of killing with one arrow is displayed in front of everyone.
Luo Di looked at the battle record, although the level was not high, his strength level was completely "crushing" for the beast of this level at the moment, so the "battle record" panel was full of red numbers of critical hits. Roughly scanned, it was basically about 36-60 fatal damage from the back of the head, and all these ordinary beasts within the level of 15 were killed in seconds.
The beast tide is like this, the terrible thing is "quantity" rather than "quality", unless there is any wurm-level or true dragon-level demonic beast, otherwise the real strength of the demonic beasts in this forest will never be reduced to running around with the beast tide - the difference between "beasts" and "demonic beasts" is very great, the scorpion king and the Kemaila beast are all demonic beasts, even if the level is low, but the strength is strong and difficult. And although the bone armor giant elephant has a level of 18, it is a beast after all, and there is no extra attribute bonus under the ordinary panel, in Roddy's eyes, this creature is not other bullshit except for brute strength.
The summary of the battle is roughly like this, followed by the inventory of the harvest - at this time, the clue prompt of the [Advanced Career Mission] in the quest bar has changed to "Talk to the village chief Brudy", and the extra [Crisis in Elsa Village (completed)] also properly gave Roddy a lot of experience.
Flipping to the [Reputation Column], the reputation of "Wood Elf (Elsa Village)" jumps to "Friendly", and the two prestige benefits of "Trade Open" and "Mission Open" are absolutely unexpected, and the fur and claws of these beasts in front of you are also a lot of benefits.
However, Roddy no longer has the idea of "taking a vote and leaving" in his mind at this time, and now his pattern is far from the simple Pp player he was at the beginning, if he encounters this situation at the beginning of the crossing, Roddy will definitely be the first to rush up and touch the corpse to grab resources - but now, all Roddy is thinking about his scout team and the new temple guards...
Time is running out, and if you don't hurry up and develop enough power to take root in the kingdom, I'm afraid that what awaits you may be the same ending as in history.
With such a thought in his heart, Luo Di has unconsciously put his vision far away, similar to the idea of "opening a trade route and dividing taxes" in the past, Luo Di was too lazy to think about it, but now he is under heavy pressure brought by the two big words "military spending" all the time...
Without money, everything can only be empty talk.
However, Luo Di, who was troubled by the development of his strength, did not know what to do, and within a few minutes after the battle, the wood elf looked at him in his eyes, in addition to gratitude and curiosity, he also brought a little "looking up"-
Before, they said that they were cleaning up the battlefield with their prey, but after the "Wall of Thorns" disappeared, they still came to the bone armored giant elephant together. After pulling out the fragments of arrows and figuring out the fact that the giant elephant had indeed died from a single arrow, even those veteran hunters couldn't help but sigh at Roddy's strength...
The wood elves admire the strong and are rarely hypocritical, so even Lando, who has a lot of criticism for Roddy, can only have a black face at this time, and he is ashamed of himself in his heart.
All kinds of ridicule and contempt for Roddy before have now become a complete joke in front of this arrow. The feeling of being slapped in the face by the facts made his face hot, and his eyes were evasive and he didn't even dare to look at Roddy—but he still mustered up the courage to look for Sally, thinking that he was trying to save his image.
However, looking around, he was surprised to find that Nata was constantly shuttling among the corpses of the beasts, silently looking at something.
At first, Lando was a little strange, but then he noticed something unusual: all the corpses that Nata looked at were all shot in the head. Lando thought of a possibility, so he stepped after Nata, and quietly looked at the corpses...
Whether it was a reindeer, a wild boar or a buffalo, these corpses were accurately inserted into the eye by an arrow, directly poking their brains.
One or two corpses were just that, from thirty meters to one hundred and ten meters, such a large distance, twenty-six beasts were all shot in the eye
After looking at the corpses, Lando's back was completely soaked in cold sweat - it was not difficult for him to understand that these beasts were the "results" of Roddy's subsequent astonishing rapid fire.
As a result, he suddenly froze in place, looking at Nata's behavior, he had roughly confirmed Roddy's "identity": the steel-tailed leopard that was tracking Nata at the beginning was probably killed by the human in front of him.
But after thinking about it like this, Lando's heart suddenly felt a little lost.
Although he has not succeeded in pursuing Nata for so many years, Kolando's understanding of her is also difficult for ordinary people to reach, so after figuring out this relationship, he already roughly understands why Nata will be interested in this human
Because she's so good and strong.
As one of the people who watched Nata grow up, Lando knows exactly what her personality is... I remember that when I was 6 years old, I was praised by the village chief of Brudy for hunting a wild boar alone, and Nata, who was 13 years old at the time, was just qualified to join the hunting team.
At that time, Lando didn't care, but who would have thought that three days later, Nata would drag a wild boar carcass back to the village with bruises...
This incident cost her almost half of her life, and one of her arms was completely broken, but Lando remembered that Nata didn't even shed a tear, but just glanced at herself coldly, and then fainted at the entrance of the village due to excessive blood loss.
Since then, Lando has understood Nata's strength hidden in her bones: she doesn't want to lose to anyone – if she finds a goal, she must achieve it
Lando is well aware of Nata's only goal over the years, which is to become "the strongest hunter in Elsa Village"... But now that Roddy has struck the air, and his archery strength has almost thrown out dozens of streets of all the hunters in the village, in such a situation, what will Nata think?
With Lando's understanding of her, I'm afraid that the goal of "the strongest hunter in Elsa Village" has been completely replaced by "Surpassing Roddy" without any suspense...
Thinking of this, Lando only felt that his heart was full of bitterness.
Where did this human come from?
Looking up, Lando, who wanted to talk to Nata, found her holding a bundle of arrows pulled out of the corpse and walking towards Roddy...
Nata's mood is delicate.
She tried her best to keep her mood calm, but no matter how she suppressed it, the sound of her heart beating in her chest was very rapid - Nata frowned, trying to think about something, but then found that all that came to her ears were the scattered words that had been left in the back of her mind more than a month ago...
"My name is Roddy, Scout, from the Rouseflon family."
This is what he said about himself.
"It's still the same, with a cold face, like an iceberg and doesn't like to talk."
What is an iceberg? Nata doesn't know what to say, but I think it's a cold mountain... Why do you say "old-fashioned"? Has he seen himself before? I don't have a little impression of what I have...
"I'll go to your village when I'm free, that... Just don't shoot me then. ”
These were the words he had spoken when he left, and Nata didn't take it seriously at the time, but she didn't think he was actually here - and besides, he did such an earth-shattering thing...
In his vision, the human sitting on the stump with his back to him was raising his hand to scratch something in the air, looking a little distressed. Nata walked forward with the arrows she had pulled out of the carcasses of the beasts in her hand, a mixture of indescribable mixed emotions... The admiration for Roddy's archery, the curiosity about Roddy's identity, the gratitude to Roddy for saving the village, and his unwavering determination to become stronger.
As Lando guessed, Nata's mind was full of the scene of the bone armored giant elephant being killed in seconds at this time, and eighty percent of the excitement in her heart came from the desire to have this superb archery and strength.
But when she stopped and stood four meters behind Roddy, she opened her mouth three or four times, and she didn't know how to speak...
Because she has hardly communicated with others, Nata, who has been indifferent for too long, seems to have forgotten how to speak, but the strength in her heart finally prevails, and this wood elf, who has always been known for her cold silence, finally stuttered out the name of the guy in front of her...
"Luo... Roddy. ”
