Chapter Seventy-Two: Hungry Lori
It was rare for Raven Ridge to encounter a sunny day, and even maggots came out of the black, damp soil, basking in the sun and crawling all over the place.
Downton walked out of the hotel, took out the soul mount badge, and entered the magic energy.
In the glow, the unicorn sprang out of the badge like a phantom, and after landing, it took a dressage briskly, and then looked back at its master.
It is worthy of being a unicorn belonging to the crescent moon clan, as if the moonlight is condensed, the whole body is snow-white, even the horse's hooves are no exception, but the big eyes are black, full of spirituality.
The elven maker of the badge chose a white dragonskin saddle tied to the unicorn's horse, which complemented each other perfectly.
Downton touched the unicorn's head, then rolled over, jumped on it, stepped on the stirrup, and slammed the horse's belly.
The unicorn hissed and ran wildly.
The oncoming air directly ruffled Downton's hairstyle, and he found that even his normal speed was more than three times faster than the Black Emperor's full run.
"When you have time later, go to the central area and take a look!" Downton looked into the depths of Raven Ridge, with the speed of a crescent unicorn, even if he encountered an elite-level ghoul, he should be able to escape.
Three down-and-out young mercenaries have formed an improvised group of adventurers to collect potions on the edge of Raven Ridge, their faces cautious for fear of attracting ghouls.
"It's a graveyard mushroom, which can be sold for a few silver coins. "A mercenary found a cluster of mushrooms on a piece of rotten wood, and as soon as he picked it, he heard the sound of horses' hooves rushing out.
Looking up in amazement, before the mercenary could react, he saw a majestic and tall unicorn like a flowing cloud in the sky, rushing through a hundred meters away.
Elegant, gorgeous, even the dirt splashed by the horse's hooves does not have a trace of pyrotechnics.
The three mercenaries stared blankly, barely believing their eyes, until Downton disappeared from view, still frozen in place.
"Am I not mistaken? it's a unicorn?" the graveyard mushroom in the mercenary's hand fell silently, and he looked at his companion in shock.
The companion nodded subconsciously, but his mind had not yet accepted the reality, it was a legendary unicorn, at least a hero-level demonic beast, how could there be a crow ridge?
"Looks like a teenager riding it? Is it a mount?"
"My Emperor Polo, the unicorn mount, is he the crown prince of a principality, who came to Raven Ridge to relax?"
"Anyway, let's get rich, hurry back to Morning Mist Town and sell the news of the unicorn in Raven Ridge. ”
The mercenary was impatient and urged his companions.
"It's a pity, we're too poor to afford Diwei crystals, otherwise we can definitely sell them for a lot of money if we take a picture just now. ”
The mercenary picked up the cemetery mushroom with a look of chagrin, the Diwei crystal is a magical crystal that can be photographed and recorded in any scene.
Some mercenaries rely on going deep into dangerous secret realms and ruins, and then shooting magnificent scenery and selling them to adventurers who are ready to attack secret realms, as well as nobles who pursue novelty and excitement, to achieve the purpose of making money.
Downton was already mentally prepared for being discovered, after all, if he wanted to return to Morning Mist, he would have to pass through many small towns and many pedestrians.
According to Downton's low-key intention, when he left Crow Ridge, he would change to the Black Emperor, but because he stayed in the war space for too long and forgot to feed the forage, the war horse was a thin mess, obviously he couldn't drag him, but what he cared about the most was Homer's words.
"Are you going to hide the Soul Mount Badge in your pocket for the rest of your life? It's better to take some courage, it's better to seize all the time to cultivate and grow to the point where the mayor and those black-hearted mercenaries don't dare to covet your wealth. ”
Homer thinks that Downton is all right, but he is too cautious in handling things, although he is as careful as a hair, but he also lacks an indomitable aura.
Downton was as good as a stream, not only did he not change unicorns, but he also wore a set of 'Hundred Warriors' light leather armor and stepped on a pair of long military boots that reached almost to the knee.
With a shower of demon-breaking daggers stuck in his boots, a warrior's dagger at his waist, and an expression pursed at the corners of his mouth, the whole person looks like a beginner adventurer.
Watching Downton use a dagger to scrape off the double-headed black dragon emblem of the St. Gerdranian Empire sewn on the chest of leather armor, Homer felt that he was making too much of a fuss.
Although it is a standard equipment, it is more than 3,000 years old, and there are almost no people who can recognize its origin, not to mention that it is a sophisticated mid-grade level, the additional magic effects on it have disappeared, and the appearance is also very old, just like the equipment passed down from generation to generation by those down-and-out knights, and it will not attract the attention of others at all.
"You'd better hurry up and get a super-level suit and common weapons, and your combat effectiveness will increase a lot. Homer suggested that in fact, although the Tearing Dragon's Tooth is a perfect level, it is not suitable for Downton in terms of additional special effects or styling.
"Hmm!"
Downton galloped through the city, arriving at Pisa Town at dusk, and was caught by a cowhide backpack on a dirt road.
"Who lost the package?" Downton slowed down, especially when he saw a green-skinned goblin standing next to his backpack.
The goblin was less than a meter tall, skinny, wearing only a pair of shabby linen trousers, and some dried blood stains and bruises from beatings.
Of course, even if the goblins have soaked in a warm bath and dressed up as gentlemen enough to attend an upscale banquet, they are still ugly in terms of human aesthetics, covered in green skin, with a pair of long ears and a pair of big feet, which is very discordant no matter how you look at it.
Dirty, mean, are synonymous with goblins, and they are forever associated with negative words.
The goblin, with a collar around its neck attached to a leash that hung on the ground, saw Downton and waved impatiently, "Boom, boom, get out!"
Downton glared at the goblin, and then saw that under the backpack the size of an adult rhinoceros, there was actually a six- or seven-year-old little Lori, and he was immediately shocked.
"Are you alright?" Downton hurried to move his backpack, afraid of crushing the little girl.
I don't know what's in the backpack, it's very heavy, and after Downton picked it up, he saw that little Lori was hanging underneath because of the backpack straps on her shoulders, and her hands and legs hung down.
"I'm so hungry!" little Lori muttered, her weak eyelids blinking, "Do you have anything to eat?"
The little girl's voice was glutinous, soft, like a sweet sugar cube, and it was very nice.
Downton unfastened his backpack, took out a piece of smoked ham and a jar of honey, and handed them over.
Little Lori was like a hungry young beast foraging, her little nose twitched a few times, and before she could open her eyes, she pounced, opened her big mouth, and bit the ham.
Downton instinctively withdrew, but he was still half a beat slower, and he was bitten directly, and he gasped in pain, but looking at the little Lori hanging on his hand, his innocent big eyes blinked, and he couldn't give birth to a trace of anger.
Little Lori let go of her teeth, fell off, ignored it, held the ham and nibbled wildly, the goblin was obviously very hungry, her stomach was gurgling, and she came over with drool, but as soon as she walked to the little girl, she kicked it away.
"What's your name?" Downton tossed the goblin a piece of ham, he didn't discriminate against the races called untouchables.
Little Lori muttered a few times, saw the goblin eating, and pulled the belt on her wrist violently, pulling the goblin off.
"This goblin turned out to be her pet. Homer couldn't help but laugh, it had been around for tens of thousands of years, and it was the first time she had seen a little girl with a goblin instead of an Alice doll.
Tang Zheng frowned, feeling that Xiao Lori was a little violent.
"Master, stop fighting. The goblin pleaded, holding his head, pouting his ass, crawling on the ground and shivering, but his mouth did not stop gnawing on the ham.
"The morning before yesterday, the child you ate begged you too, and you didn't stop?" asked the little Lori rhetorically, kicking it over.
"Very upright little girl. Homer admired that the little girl did not explain it to Downton, but this sentence already said it all.
Seeing the goblin full of repentance, Downton knew that the little girl was right, and couldn't help sighing, for the goblins, ogres, and gnolls, human beings are a kind of food, and if you eat them, you won't feel guilty at all.
"What's your name, and where is your family?"
As soon as Downton finished asking, the little girl's expression suddenly became vigilant, and she didn't even eat the ham, and handed it back to him.
"Xiexie your ham, I'm full. The little girl stood up with her backpack on her back and continued on her way.
The goblin was a few steps slower, and the little Lori pulled the belt so hard that it almost strangled it and made it fall headlong on the mud floor, leaving it dusty.
Little Lori didn't wait for the 'pet' goblin to get up, so she dragged it forward, kicking up a cloud of dust.
The backpack like a mountain bag, dozens of pounds of goblins, in her hands, seemed to have no weight at all, light as a feather.
"Her bloodline should be special. Homer estimated that little Lori should have some giant or dragon blood in her body, otherwise there would be no such huge liliang.
"Wait, it's so late, are you going to camp in the wilderness? It's too dangerous, go and stay at my house for one night!" How could Downton let a little Lori leave alone, if something happened, he would feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Little Lori didn't speak, raised her head, stared at Downton with big eyes as pure as stars, and took a dozen breaths.
"I have no ill intentions!" Downton faced calmly, and took out a full money bag, "If you don't believe me, go find a hotel to stay in, in short, don't wander outside at night, the West Frontier is very unsafe." ”
Downton turned to leave.
"Wait, I'll go with you. Little Lori caught up and stood side by side with Downton, "Your eyes are clean, unlike those dirty people." ”
"Who?" Downton quickly regretted asking.
"Lolicon!" After finishing speaking, the little girl probably felt that it was not enough to express herself, so she accentuated her tone and adjective, "Those damn Lolicon!"
PS: Cute little Lori is here!
