Chapter 11: The Future We Don't Know
Whether it is dealing with the Northland warriors supported by the gangsters, or facing the winter wolves on the ice field, it is undoubtedly very dangerous. And now this person has brought a different choice.
Martin and his entourage listened quietly to the other party's request.
I saw that the deputy chief showed a dirty smile that was not suitable for such a strong man and said, "That is, just let her accompany me." ”
He pointed at Sophia with his hand.
"Although before, she was covered by full armor, neither her face nor her figure could be seen. But I noticed her eyes, which were very beautiful. Now that I look at it, it's really true, it's a stunning beauty, hahaha!"
Before, Martin was worried about this situation, so he ordered Sophia to be fully armed, and even her face was covered with a chain mail mask hanging from her helmet, only showing her eyes, and she didn't expect to encounter this situation. However, this is clearly the other party's bad intentions, and Martin will not accuse Sophia of being in trouble because of this.
Being pointed at by the other party like this, Sophia suddenly became panicked and lost. Although this deputy chief is also a huge strong man, as a Northland warrior with a reputation for being brave and good at fighting, he will definitely be able to fight if he can sit in this position. But if it's really a one-on-one battle, he may not have competed against Sophia. Sophia has an amazing talent for swordsmanship, and she has been trained hard and licked blood on the tip of her sword in life-and-death combat, which even a well-known and seasoned paladin such as Canian can match.
But the problems brought about by this deputy chief are not solved by the sword.
Perhaps, it is precisely because I am not good at dealing with this kind of thing that I chose the adventure of using a sword to speak. For some reason, Sophia remembered why she came to the Northland in the first place, and after watching it, she had a subconscious that she didn't realize it had.
"What do you call it?" asked Martin to the deputy chief.
"Just call me Blackfang. The other party replied.
In this world, there are different ways to address names, some surnames come first, some have first names and surnames last, and some have three-section forms. My first name + patronymic + last name. And different names of different ethnic groups can sometimes cause confusion, for example, if the name seems to be the same, if it is given by people of different nationalities, it may have different meanings. Even if some ethnic groups are given a name, they will be surnames in other ethnic groups. There are also people in the Northland who put their surnames first. There are also those that are placed in the back. However, Northland people often use nicknames as their first names.
There is a saying that there is only the wrong name, not the wrong nickname. That's why Northland people sometimes like to be called by nicknames. Hearing the name and looking at the other party, Martin guessed that maybe he was a blackberry eater, so he dyed his teeth black. After all, there is a "Bluetooth" that loves blueberries so I dye my teeth blue. However, it is also possible that he loves to drink mead, which leads to worm teeth. So Martin cautiously asked, "Oh, can you tell me how you got this nickname?"
Martin wants to know more about each other, and look good at people's dishes. The other party laughed heartily and said, "I love black raspberries, so I stained my teeth black." ”
A black raspberry is not a blackberry. Blackberries are solid. Whereas, black raspberries are hollow.
Martin also loves raspberries and loves raspberry pie. However, if a person eats raspberries, he also picks whether the color is black or red or yellow. Then the person seems to be fussy and indulgent. No wonder he took a fancy to Sophia.
"How's that?" continued Blackfang, "I can see that she won't be your wife or something. And I'm not going to leave her, just for the night. You can avoid a dangerous battle. You know, neither the Winter Wolves nor the Northland Warriors are easy to deal with. ”
Hearing this, Sophia's body trembled, it wasn't cold at all, she was dressed very thickly. She knew that Martin was now there to save Lyuklixia. And how important she is to Martin. Now, with a clue at hand, Martin must be in a hurry......
"No, I refuse. "Even if it's at risk." Even "Martin pointed at Sophia", she could have died in the battle with the Winter Wolves. That won't work either. My team members can be killed by the enemy, but they can't be betrayed by me. My team members are not my puppets. You can ask her about her choices. ”
"I refuse!" said Sophia, firmly. Naturally, if she chooses to agree. Then all the efforts she had made since she got out of that canary life were meaningless.
"Then it can't be helped. Blackfang shook his head and turned away.
When he was gone, Zari erupted. "Why didn't you promise him? Now, for your sake, we have to deal with a strong enemy! What about promising him? ”
Zari is a dark elf, and in terms of the way the dark elf thinks, she naturally chooses that safe path when she encounters such a situation.
"You go anyway," Zari said, standing up and pointing at Sophia.
"Shut up!" Martin paused. "If everyone in this team pushes other members into the fire pit, will they still be able to unite against the enemy?"
"Different nationalities have different habits. What is considered insignificant in one nation may be serious in another. You can't just think about things from your own perspective. Martin said earnestly, "You can't make a paladin do things the way the dark elves do!"
However, looking around, other people will certainly not jump out like Zali. But apparently there is also a bit of an idea in mind. After all, this team is a coincidence team. The people inside didn't know each other in the past. Although it is said that it is already a common adventure. We've been in the same boat through thick and thin. But after all, the time is still short. The camaraderie is not deep enough. Add to that the dangers that may lie ahead are too great. So I can't help but feel a little bit of that.
Martin couldn't help but sigh. "Well, if this Black Fang chooses not Sophia, but one of you. So what do you want me to say, think about when this kind of thing happens to you!"
Suddenly, the others ran out of ideas. They immediately understood Sophia. At the end of the day, there are no evil people in this ranks. And after all, they fought side by side and had feelings. Therefore, it will not be like on one occasion, when a group of people instigated a woman in a carriage to sleep with an officer of an enemy country in order to pass the customs.
And it is different when things fall on someone else than when it falls on oneself. For example, if the country temporarily sacrifices a group of people for the sake of a thousand years, some people will applaud it and say that it is a necessary sacrifice. But if it really comes to him, he may slip away.
Zari was still a little unconvinced. "Then you and her will go into battle then, and I'll look at the luggage in the back!" After all, Martin's relationship with the rest of the team is different from her. And she is a rare non-evil dark elf. But it's not kind.
Martin said firmly: "Well, you can leave the team immediately." Think about whether you can travel alone on the surface and go to your sister. ”
Zari flinched. She knew, though the surface wasn't as naked as the laws of the jungle in the Dark Elf society. But it's not peaceful.
"There's really no need for us to do what Holki says, though. The holy relic was no longer in his possession. He just gave us a piece of news, but he made such a big deal. Martin said. He is not stupid, there is no need for the other party to put forward any conditions, just agree to any conditions. He could have found another way. You don't have to do a task if someone issues a task. There are many ways in which things in the world can end.
"Starting tomorrow, we will search. Martin said, "The experience gathers more information. With that, Martin darkened the bonfire a lot. Then he went into the tent and went to sleep.
The next morning, everyone woke up and found that it was a rare good weather. Martin immediately began to summon natural allies.
"These are friends who are good at spying. Martin introduced. A group of Haidongqing was summoned by him and spread their wings and flew high. Forward in different directions.
Soon, a Haidongqing reacted, hovering in one place. After Martin and the others had arrived, it whistled again and flew somewhere else.
It turned out that there was a tall spruce there. Martin stroked his hand over the book, communicating with it. Others were bored and left alone.
Finally, Hai Dongqing flew back, and Martin stopped communicating with the trees.
"I say, do you dare to talk to a more powerful being?" asked Martin.
"What?" asked Zali.
"White Dragon, a wise white dragon!"

The white dragon here refers to the white dragon in the DND setting. It's just that it's translated and called that. It has nothing to do with what the Chinese call dragons. Nor is it the same as the dragon in the eyes of Westerners. It's just the white dragon of the five-colored dragon in the TRPG setting.
I've been reading a lot of comics lately. Some knowledge is also gained in some comics. "Silly Stupid Front" is over, telling the story of witches participating in the Soviet army's fight against fascism in World War II. "Heroic Heruku" is highly recommended, it was funny at the beginning, and it began to be sadistic when I watched it. But there is room for restoration. It depends on the struggle of the protagonist, and the whole work is full of peaks and turns.
Because I'm going to try to write light novel-style works, I'm still forcing myself to watch cartoons. Even the past "Chino's Journey" has been found out and watched. The recent "Black Salesman" is also watching. There is still a certain gap between its original author, Fujiko Fujio A and Fujiko Fujio F. This work can be seen as a mourning black version of the robot cat, eh.
I watched two Warring States movies in succession. "Heaven and Earth" and "Wind Forest Volcano" both tell the story of Takeda and Ueshi. Among them, the picture of "Heaven and Earth" is really good. The scenes such as the shirts are very well shaped, so I recommend watching it. Maybe I'll end up in the Warring States Pit later. In short, the real history is more attractive to me than the history in the DND that I think is set, and I think it is more meaningful to delve into it. Of course, you can't be too obsessed, and you should pay more attention to more realistic issues.
I haven't watched much of "In the Name of the People" until now, but I still have to work hard and catch up with the trend. Because people are social creatures, if they don't have enough strength, breaking away from the masses and going up to the cold wind can lead to many problems.
Recently, I participated in an archery competition, but my level is still worrying, and it is far behind.
