Chapter 61: The Passionate Chief

Loki took a cautious look at the pig-sling, which was only the size of an adult hound, not enough to threaten his safety.

There was a 'buzz' crossbow string sound, and the crossbow arrow shot out like a black light.

The pig beast was pierced by a crossbow arrow in its mouth, and it howled in pain for a while, and it didn't take long for it to die under the tree.

But at this moment, another slight sound of footsteps, the sound of passing through the trees, also came in this direction.

Loki didn't rush down the tree, so he carefully rewound his crossbow and waited for the uninvited guest to appear.

In the bush before, a figure in hunter's attire, with a thick beard, holding a hunting bow and an arrow, was aimed at the dead pig beast.

The hunter obviously knew some tracing skills, and looked at the crossbow arrow in the mouth of the dead pig beast, and immediately found the half-elf boy in the big tree.

Loki's gray eyes looked at the hunter calmly, and he was a little surprised in his heart, with slightly pointed ears, this hunter was obviously a middle-aged half-elf.

The half-elf hunter was even more surprised than Loki, and immediately lowered his bow and arrows, and a childlike smile appeared on his unshaven face, and waved his hand and beckoned him loudly to come down.

"Hey, how did you get here, it's dangerous, whose boy are you?" shouted the hunter heartily.

Loki was a little surprised, but he also turned the crossbow arrow slightly, and didn't think about how to answer for a while.

"You little bastards in town should be locked up in your room and tied up with ropes, or you'll end up in such a dangerous place. ”

The half-elf hunter squatted next to the wild boar and continued: "But you are very powerful, you have a certain talent as a hunter, this arrow is really good, I will help you clean it up later, you can take this pig home." ”

Loki quickly climbed down the tree, keeping a dark guard in his heart, and the retina showed rough stats for the half-elf hunter - strength: 1.01, agility: 1.19, and constitution: 0.89.

A rough analysis is equivalent to the strength of an adult apprentice in the first or second level of occupation, and his physique looks slightly lower than that of ordinary people, possibly due to old age or old injuries. Based on the surface data, the hunter is not much of a threat to Loki except for the unused hunting bow.

The hunter helped carry the pig beast and turned his head at the same time, "By the way, boy, what's your name?"

"Loki!"

The half-elf boy slowly spoke, "What about you, who are you?"

"Hey, Wild Boy Loki, you're rude, didn't your parents tell me my name to a little imp like you? Listen, I'm the famous town hunter, Chief Rupert. ”

Loki was secretly a little puzzled, it was the first time he had heard of a half-elf with a surname, and the surname was so strange.

"Hello, Mr. Rupert Chief, I would like to ask - where is the direction of the town?"

Rupert glanced at the half-elf boy suspiciously, suddenly slapped his head, and said loudly: "I just think it's looking at you? ”

"Haha, welcome to you outsider, Loki, welcome to Silent Town. ”

Loki felt a little strange in his heart, but he just nodded silently.

Rupert said, "Haha, what a strange feeling, what a delight, because I don't seem to have seen an outsider in a long time." ”

Rupert looked enthusiastic and did not seem to be fake, and at the same time said happily: "Rocky boy, I sincerely invite you to come to my house, and we must have a good drink of rum." ”

After speaking, he couldn't help but say, and took the half-elf boy through the bushes, and then went around to a slope halfway up the mountain.

Halfway up the hill was Rupert the Hunter's house, a sturdy log hut.

Once inside the cabin, Rupert became more enthusiastic, first helping to dispose of the dead pig-beast, then pulling out several large jugs of rum he had bought from the town and inviting Loki to drink with him.

Citing his age, Loki refuses to be of unknown origin, instead helping to dispose of the pig beast and roast it into delicious meat while listening to the hunter tell him about his hunting deeds.

During the meal, the half-elf boy enjoyed the fragrant meat and dry food, and at the same time vaguely inquired about some news.

And the hunter Rupert is not only warm and friendly, but also does not hide some problems from this half-elf boy.

Most of the time the hunter brags about himself, but other than that, Loki finally knows the name of the town, Silent Town.

With a few hundred residents, the town was not very large, but to his surprise, it was a town composed entirely of half-elves, less than four hundred half-elves, and almost all of them were familiar faces.

As for why Silent Town is in the Forest of Secret Words, and there are some topics about how the town communicates with the outside world, Rupert can't say clearly, as if he doesn't know about these issues.

Before Loki could inquire carefully, the hunter was already holding the flask and falling asleep.

The Hunter's Cabin was a small size, divided into four rooms, and Loki took some effort to place the sleeping Hunter and go to another room to rest.

Silent Town ?—— Half-Elf Town?

The map, which had been more accurate in memory, was almost blank for the Forest of Secret Words, and it was certainly impossible for him to hear of it himself.

Maybe he's used to being wary, but Loki feels there's something strange about it.

What kind of town would be built in such a place?

But he suppressed that curious thought, after all, this beyond the science of the world, and the strange jungle, where is not strange?

After plugging the door, he didn't change his clothes, stuffed the weapon in his hand under his pillow, and kept his guard even on the lookout for rest.

In the deep consciousness space, Loki has just checked the progress of several sensory nerve information optimizations.

After confirming that the optimization progress was steadily improving, he turned his attention to the 3D vision system project.

Among them, Loki spent a lot of energy, using the incomplete knowledge of 'number collection' and 'analytic geometry' in memory storage to deduce some digital image models needed for the 3D system construction plan. While he confronts the model with image conversion numbers from memory, he also refines and streamlines the numbers little by little.

"The digital model of the horizontal and vertical axis of No. 597 is being applied to improve the analog 3D digital space on a small scale in combination with the previous progress............ The 3D spatial vision system is in the process of being built and is being upgraded to 15% completion. ”

Receiving feedback from his consciousness, Loki thought for a moment and decided.

"RC invests another 20% of computing resources to speed up the completion of the construction plan. ”

"Also, put the 3D system build plan in the background, streamline it, and show the progress in the optic nerve image at any time. ”

"Executing, Master. ”
