Chapter 18: Confidant
It turns out that the long journey with a delicate little girl is nothing short of torture.
Fan Kang not only has to deal with the elusive beast, but also takes care of Xia Li. When she is hungry, look for food for her; When you are tired, carry her on your back; sleepy, accompany by the side; Loneliness is empty...... Hehe, Fan Kang can't help!
"Hey, you didn't tell me this was so far!" Fan Kang complained to Xia Li on his back.
"You bastard! Who said you can't take the trail in the first place? Do you blame me now? After having a life-and-death relationship with Fan Kang, the two also became acquainted. Xia Li even opened her mouth and closed her mouth to call Fan Kang "you bastard"!
If it weren't for Xia Li's stupidity, Fan Kang would almost have thought that he had deceived her. After all, Xia Li is like a moving encyclopedia, almost knowing everything about Fury's continent. What if she even knew about Rollo's protection?
"That's right, Charlie. If the dwarven leader is always beating you, why do you want to stay in the town? β
"Where else can I go without the town? I'm afraid that before I leave, I will be eaten by wild beasts. Besides, I have Brother Bud who will protect me, so the townspeople are really pitiful. For the safety of the whole town, every once in a while, they have to sacrifice 3 children to be sent to the vampire earl. Compared to them, I'm lucky. β
Bud? Fan Kang frowned, and immediately remembered that Bard was the one who needed his protection in the third novice mission!
"But since they are so oppressed, why don't they rise up against the vampire count? You must know that people's ** will grow indefinitely. β
"How dare they? You don't know how powerful the vampire count is, even Uncle Linus was wounded by him - of course, if Uncle Linus hadn't been injured in his early years, he wouldn't have been defeated by a vampire bug! When talking about her idol, Xia Li had an unconcealable pride on her face.
Fan Kang's heart suddenly moved. "Uncle Linus is amazing?"
"It's amazing!" Xia Li said firmly. "But now that he's got new injuries and old ones, it's probably not easy to defeat the vampire earl."
Fan Kang supports the forehead. For the first time, he felt that after coming into contact with Xia Li, he had also become naΓ―ve and innocent - he actually expected to know his specific strength from the mouth of a Linus brainless fan!
Before Linus was "newly injured", he was no match for the vampire count! You told me that it was not easy for him to defeat the vampire count with new and old wounds - were you stupid, or did you think I was stupid? However, in order to keep his back from being destroyed, Fan Kang still didn't say it after all.
"By the way, why don't you just tell me about Bard and Uncle Linus, so don't you talk about your family?"
At this time, Fan Kang clearly felt that Xia Li, who had been excited behind his back, suddenly fell silent.
"I ...... I'm an orphan and have no family......"
"Orphans?" Fan Kang thought silently, and suddenly turned his head and smiled. "Me too."
"Huh? You bastard an orphan too? β
"yes. My parents died when I was very young. It was killed, I saw it with my own eyes! β
Xia Li was silent for a while, it turned out that it was not only herself, but the man in front of her was also unlucky. Anyone who sees their dearest loved ones killed with their own eyes is afraid that it will leave a heavy psychological dark side. No wonder the dwarven leader's mental shock had such a negative effect on him.
"But that guy isn't much better......" Speaking of this, Fan Kang's eyes suddenly turned cold. The reason why I hid next to me back then was so that one day I could become strong and avenge my parents! β
Xia Li gently pressed her face against Fan Kang's back, and quietly listened to him tell the story that had tormented him for years.
"Finally, when I was strong enough, I finally found him, and then scraped 362 knives on him, then smeared with salt, waited for him to suffer for 3 hours, then smeared honey, put him in front of the ant nest, and watched him struggle for 25 hours, 36 minutes and 41 seconds!"
"I don't know why he killed your parents, but I think you did the right thing."
Fan Kang didn't speak, but just took a deep breath of the fragrance between the ends of Xia Li's hair, which made Xia Li blush again.
Fan Kang didn't tell Xia Li that his father-killing enemy, the person he tortured for a day and a night, was actually his uncle!
"I don't know who my parents are, and I've never enjoyed their parents' love, but I think it's the most beautiful emotion in the world. We do everything for our parents. β
"Thank you. It's a pity ......"
"What a pity?"
Fan Kang was silent.
is the same as the end of the world, but they will eventually separate.
"By the way, Xia Li, how did you know that I only had 8 HP left?"
When Fan Kang asked this question, Xia Li's eyes were flustered for a moment, but she quickly adjusted, so that Fan Kang didn't have time to pay attention. "I'm the omniscient, omnipotent-sized Charlie-sama, have you forgotten?"
"Yes, yes! I know that Lady Xia Li knows everything, but please don't stand like a log and let people chop it down next time, okay? β
"You bastard, don't talk about me about that again!"
"Good, good! If I don't talk about you, let's talk about your brother Bud. β
Xia Li's small mouth deflated. "Humph! You're trying to trick me again! Brother Bud is the adopted son of Uncle Linus, and he has grown up with me since he was a child, and he has been kind to me. When I was being bullied, he always helped me out. And he is not only good-looking, but also handsome, and many girls in the town like him! It's just that I don't know why, he doesn't like any of them. β
I don't know why, hearing Xia Li say that Bard is good, Fan Kang felt an inexplicable loss. To say that Xia Li has no feelings for this "Brother Bud" at all, Fan Kang would rather believe that the sow can go up the tree!
Fan Kang quickly realized that something was wrong: what does the relationship between two people have to do with you? Are you lost a fart?
Fan Kang didn't bother to find himself bored, and asked for information about the werewolf whirlwind, but he didn't notice the cunning in Xia Li's eyes.
As Fan Kang expected, as one of the two generals of the vampire Earl, the general boss of the novice world, the werewolf whirlwind is extremely powerful.
If the attack method of the dwarf leader's attack is more continuous, it can also use the spirit shock to take advantage of the situation to sneak attack, which belongs to the auxiliary system. Then, the werewolf whirlwind is good at wave after wave of onslaught, and it belongs to the strong attack system. If you want to kill the whirlwind, Fan Kang must be well prepared! It's a pity that the specific situation, Xia Li refused to say what's wrong, so Fan Kang had to give up.
Under Fan Kang's non-stop rush, Xia Li was finally sent back to the town safely within the 24-hour deadline.
The town was not as house as Fan Kang thought, and there was not even a single house in the huge town. The inhabitants are all covered by those stout, hollow trees!
As if seeing Fan Kang's doubts, Xia Li explained aloud.
Long ago, when the elves were still living on the Fury continent, they used their wisdom to skillfully hollow out the lower end of the hollow tree in the forest and transform it into a wooden house that could shelter from the rain. As the relationship between the elves and humans grew, it gradually developed into a cozy town.
Unfortunately, in a later mutation on the mainland, for some reason, the elves disappeared from the continent almost overnight. These "big tree houses" have remained and become witnesses of the friendship between the two races.
Fan Kang could imagine the scene of two different races living in harmony at that time. Even in honor of the disappeared elves, people used the Elven word "Fury" as the name of the continent.
What makes Fan Kang laugh and cry is that this "Fury" means freedom in the Elven language. Fan Kang was extremely suspicious that when this continent was named, it was sideways by the Freedom Domain. Or rather, the whole continent was created by the realm of freedom!
When the two of them reached the entrance of the town, many residents gathered towards Fan Kang. From the gloomy faces of the residents and the farm tools they held in their hands, Fan Kang smelled a hint of danger.
These guys...... Obviously not here to greet Fan Kang!
At this time, a young man in the crowd came out, pointed at Fan Kang and shouted: "It's him!" I saw him kill the dwarven leader! β
The young man's words can be described as a stone that stirred up a thousand waves, instantly igniting the anger of the residents, who shouted one after another: "Catch him!" β
"Let's go up and kill him! Only then will the vampire count calm his anger! β
"Kill him!"
