Chapter Twenty-Nine: Foothold
I'm glad to see someone tipping, thanks for the tip of the night and the feathers under the maple tree. At the same time, I collected it on the 90 years! The brain hole of this paragraph continues, come on.
==================================================================
In the end, it was Artoria who took care of everything in the tent alone.
It's not that Chitanda Airu really doesn't help, but the two of them finally found out that the effect of Artoria alone is better than that of the two. So under Artoria's "strong" request, Chitanda Airu changed from a collaborator to a cheerleader, and was specifically responsible for cheering her on. Whether this actually had a positive effect is unknown.
"Leah, you are so powerful! You are obviously a royal nobleman, you actually know how to set up a tent, do you royal members of the Kingdom of England even have to learn how to set up a tent?" After seeing that the tent was set up, Chitanda Airu immediately got into the tent, rolled in it, and then sat up, curiously asking Artoria who had entered the tent to check the situation inside.
How can you say that the royal family and nobles will definitely not set up tents, don't you? Although Artoria wondered in her heart, she didn't say it directly, she didn't want to face the girl's powerful eyes again. So he said, "No, it's just because I'm relatively different, and after knowing things like tents, I learned more deeply." Others...... There's not much time to learn about these things. In the end, it was said in a self-deprecating tone.
"Why!" Chitanda Airu grabbed the girl's hands from the self-deprecating girl and put them tightly together, "In my opinion, Liya, you learned this thing much better than anything else, don't we need this tent now? Isn't that what its value is? So you don't need to be self-deprecating at all, at least I'll support you." With that, he smiled at Artoria with a big smile.
"Sentanda ......" Hearing Chitanda's encouragement and seeing her smiling face, Artoria naturally broke away from her self-deprecation and looked at her with a little emotion. I thought to myself: If I am with her in the future, I should ......
"Al, Al, you well-dressed **!"
I don't know if it's in reality or in my mind, the sudden sentence directly startled Artoria, quickly looked around, and then went out to look outside the tent, and finally didn't find anything unusual, so I sat back in the tent and left.
"Leah, what's wrong with you, you look like you've seen a ghost in the daytime?, is there any strange supernatural phenomenon here?" asked Chitanda Airu inexplicably excitedly.
"I didn't ...... No, it's just that I just seemed to sense the breath of some demonic beasts, so that's why it's like this. "Chitanda didn't seem to have any unusual reaction, it shouldn't be in reality, it was in my head? Someone else's voice suddenly sounded? And that voice seemed to be sent by Xiaoming...... Xiaoming, Xiaoming, are you really going to create panic for me even if you are not "here"?
"Leah, you seem to be very wrong...... Chitanda Airu said with concern when she saw Artoria's "sad" look.
"It's all right!" replied firmly. Artoria felt that it was better to let go of Wang Xiaoming's advance now, anyway, he was not here now, if there was anything to talk about tomorrow, it was better to get along with Qian Yantian now.
"Really?" said Chitanda Airu with a skeptical expression, "but your expression was very surprised just now, and it didn't look like it was okay." ”
"Really? hahaha...... It's just that I'm thinking about what to do for tonight's dinner? After all, I'm not very good at this food and stuff, so I'm constantly struggling. I was thinking about it just now. At this time, Artoria doesn't care about her external image, so she can hide it. She has secretly decided in her heart that she wants Wang Xiaoming to look good as soon as he comes back!
"I see. Actually, my cooking skills are not very good, Xiaoming he can, but I can't. But it doesn't matter, it's just grilled and eaten, and you don't have to be so demanding. Chitanda Airu believed Artoria's words and spoke out to comfort her.
“...... Okay, then I'll go find some beasts and monsters now, and come back with some game. Seeing that Chitanda Airu believed her words, Artoria simply went to get some ingredients right now and came back, so she came out of the tent.
"Okay, then I'll go to the river and catch some fish. Chitanda Airu saw Artoria come out of the tent to grab some barbecue ingredients, so she also got out of the tent and said to Artoria.
"Well, I'll chop a few pieces of wood for you now, and you should know all his abilities, right?" said Artoria.
"Yes, I know how to fireball, so I'll take care of the fire!" Chitanda Airu propped her arms on her waist and straightened her chest.
Artoria nodded, took out her sword from the ring, and cut the nearest tree into several parts, and finally made wood that could make a fire, which was basically enough for tomorrow. Then a portion of the timber is concentrated on the side of the tent.
"Fireball. Chitanda Airu whispered words in her mouth, and finally sent out a small fireball and hit the wood pile, and with a "bang", a small bonfire was formed. The dim sky above the river was faintly apparent that it was almost evening, and the flames from the campfire lit up the forest area here.
Artoria walked to the river and saw that it was not too early, so she hurried to find the ingredients.
took out Xiaoming's knife from the space ring and handed it to Chitanda Airu, and explained to her: "You can take this knife on your body, so as not to have any demonic beasts coming, although there should be no demonic beasts that will be brave enough to come over now, but it is still just in case." Then you will shout for help, I will keep an eye on this place, and I will rush to your rescue as soon as you shout. ”
"Leah, take out the bow inside. Chitanda Airu said.
"Huh, you can use a bow?" "Of course, if Xiaoming will buy this bow, it means that he will use a bow, and since he can use a bow, then I will naturally use it." I don't want to use a knife either, so it's better to use a bow. ”
"I think you might as well use magic, and if you're a girl, you'd better be a magician. Artoria looked at the girl's "small body", although she was taller than herself, but imagined her using a bow and arrow, and felt that it was still a little inappropriate.
"Hmph, aren't you also a woman, Leah? Aren't you also a small body? Aren't you still fighting with a sword? Isn't it okay for me to fight with a bow and arrow?"
"Uh...... Okay, okay, I'll just listen to you. Unable to withstand the girl's tear attack, Artoria was directly defeated, and obediently handed her the bow.
"Don't you need arrows? It's useless to have a bow without arrows. "Leah, I'm good at magic and vindictiveness, so why don't you just generate an elemental arrow......?" I'm sorry, but I'm lonely. ”
Artoria, who was ready, went to the neighborhood to look for ingredients, while Chitanda Airu stayed at the tent and was in charge of catching fish.
"So, remember to shout when there is a situation. "Got it, got it. Leah, you're so annoyed. ”
After seeing that Artoria had really gone into the rest of the forest and couldn't see her back at all, Chitanda Airu began her fishing operation.
Of course, for Chitanda Airu, who has completely inherited all of Wang Xiaoming's abilities, it is really easy to catch fish. Placing her sandals on the edge of the tent, she walked to the middle of the river, which was up to her knees. Therefore, there is no need to worry about what accidents will happen to be washed away by the river, even if it is really so unfortunate, it doesn't matter, "death" is just a question of whether she is willing to die.
Chitanda Airu stood in the river like this, quietly watching the river flow below her, she didn't make any superfluous movements, thinking about one thing in her heart.
Shall I just use the oldest method, to catch fish by hand, or should I try to use vindictiveness, or more brutally, use magic to bomb on a large scale? No, the oldest method is too old, and it is too direct and crude to use the new one, and it is too direct and crude to bombard it directly with magic. Then let's use fighting energy, save effort and not be too lethal.
So, Chitanda Airu, who had made up his mind, released his fighting spirit, covered his own river area, and gave the command "If you touch a fish, you will materialize and catch it" in the fighting spirit. This is a successful experience she has come up with after some experimentation, when she manipulates the fighting spirit, and when she sees a fish swimming towards her, she thinks to herself, "I want to catch this fish", so the fighting energy that is fully covered in the river automatically materializes when the fish swims by, trapping her.
In fact, the use of vindictive energy can also be very life-like, as long as you want to get it, of course, you must also have that strength.
Thinking like this, Chitanda Airu sat directly on the edge of the river, watching one fish after another being caught without knowing it, and then being thrown by the river, constantly beating, and couldn't help but feel happy.
Seeing that more and more fish were thrown up, Chitanda Airu relieved her fighting spirit, after all, how could she eat so many fish, so she prepared to put the excess fish back into the river.
"Woo Woo ......"
As Chitanda Airu released the fish back into the river, a sound from the forest grass near her attracted her. Having put the fish back into the river, she went to the tent and picked up her bow, observing the grass that made a sound.
In the end, under the gaze of Chitanda Airu, a string of strange creatures crawled out of the grass.
No, it's not a string of creatures, but the body of that creature is just string after string, just like the big python I met before. The difference is that the python only gives people a sense of horror, and this creature also gives people only one feeling, that is, disgusting.
Because the creature that crawled out was a giant centipede!
