Chapter 8: Medals and Joshua
Nelito Manor. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Wood and Hisna, who had just returned from the dungeon, were lying in bed.
Both were bandaged in their wounds, and a white-robed priest chanted healing.
A holy white light shrouded the two of them.
The burns on Hisna's body began to recover at a speed visible to the naked eye, and her expression appeared calm, and she gradually fell asleep in the light.
Wood, who was lying next to him, didn't feel so well, I don't know if it was because of the demonic bloodline, the wound did not get better, but began to become more painful, and his heart became a little manic.
The priest who was casting the spell also sensed something was wrong and hurriedly stopped chanting.
Lily walked quickly to Wood's side, lifted the bandage and saw that the wound had not improved in the slightest, picked up the herbs in her hand, and applied them to the wound.
Sighing, he first said to the white-robed priest who didn't know what to do: "It seems that the divine spell is useless for this little ghost, you can continue to treat the eldest lady." ”
After talking to the white-robed priest, he looked at Wood and said angrily, "Why didn't you bastard tell me earlier that your body would rebel against sacred spells? Do you know how dangerous it is if you're in a dungeon?"
Wood is also bitter in his heart, since he opened that demonic bloodline, his eyes have changed color and he has had messy dreams, not to mention, and now he has also resisted divine spells, where can he find a priest to team up in the future?
However, he also understands that if it weren't for this bloodline, he wouldn't have grown so fast, and he also has some special abilities.
Perhaps this is one of the costs of gaining power, and the demons and gods are indeed equal.
Looking at Lily, who was a little angry because she was worried about herself, the god made Wood reach out her right hand and touch the maid's hair with cat ears.
Wood, who thought he had become a man, looked at Lily, who was blushing, and said softly, "I'm sorry for worrying you again." ”
Lily's face turned red instantly, and she felt that the little ghost in front of her was getting worse and worse.
He didn't stop, and continued to treat the wound, but he didn't dare to look at Wood again.
She found herself immersed in the feeling.
"Bang dang!"
The white-robed priest suddenly stopped chanting, and as if he had stopped working, his staff fell to the ground.
Someone can actually cure Sister Lily, her worldview is about to collapse!
This little junior brother is too strong!
After bandaging the wound, he hurriedly left the somewhat crimson situation.
Lily saw the priest who couldn't turn her head around, and finally realized that the scene just now was seen by the juniors who longed for her.
She hadn't even noticed the sound of the staff dropping just now.
Lily went up and slapped the priest on the forehead, then blushed a little and reprimanded, "Anna!
The little priest, who finally reacted, hurriedly picked up the staff and continued to chant healing techniques to her eldest lady.
As for the state of her heart, only she knows.
Wood on the hospital bed actually blushed a little, and he felt that he was so brave just now.
But Lily didn't resist, is it because he's still hurt?
He felt like he had learned something very powerful.
And it's effective against rogue masters.
......
The next day, the manor hall.
Wood and Cisna, whose injuries have been completely healed, sit on the couch and begin to choose their careers.
Both of them are very cautious, and this is one of the most important choices in their lives.
Adventurers can start choosing a class for the first time when they reach level 5, and they can't continue to level up until they have chosen a class.
The higher the experience required for a class, the more suitable it is for adventurers and the more likely it is to grow.
The experience required for a typical profession can range from two or three thousand to tens of thousands.
Lily's first class at that time was 80,000 experience points, which is a rare top among adventurers.
Fortunately, the Nelito family has never lacked experience stones.
After changing classes, you can no longer use experience stones to gain experience.
Among adventurers, there is a saying that has been circulating.
The moment you bring your medal, you can congratulate you on stepping into the world of true adventurers!
There is also an adventurer who chooses to open the home system.
The Homeland System Adventurer is a must-have character for high-level adventure groups, and it plays a very big role.
From the fourth stage onwards, the party is sure to bring a homeland adventurer.
Adventurers who open the home system can no longer access any of the main classes, and must rely on their team to survive.
Naturally, Wood and Cessna, who are full of fighting talents, do not consider it.
The golden crystals worth 10,000 experience points in his hand gradually turned into powder.
The two also completed their career choices.
There are more than a dozen classes to choose from, and there are two of the most experience-demanding at the same time.
After thinking about it for a while, I used 100,000 points to choose the God Knight.
Knight of God: A sacred frontal combat class.
Limitations: As a believer, you cannot own indentured servants and slaves.
Trait: Activates a permanent self-protection aura.
Trait 2: All attacks and your mounts will have a divine attribute.
This choice is not difficult for Cisna, because her advantage is the ability to fight head-on, and this class can get permanent aura and attribute bonuses just by sacrificing the contract position, which is definitely worth it.
Wood's choice was simpler, and he continued the Assassin route he had been playing his part.
Twilight Raider: Reaper at the junction of light and darkness.
Restriction: Divine and Dark spells double your damage and have no aura, except for minions.
Characteristics: After locking on an enemy, it can quickly learn about information and weaknesses.
Trait 2: The speed of movement/reaction/attack and the strength of the caster will increase rapidly as the level increases.
The amount of XP required is also 100,000 points.
Others are good, but this one is the most suitable for him who likes to assassinate.
As the two succeeded in becoming inaugural adventurers, two entry-level one-star career medals also appeared out of thin air.
Wood and Hisna also had messages about the system flashing through their minds.
"Congratulations to the adventurer for his successful career and initial skills. ”
"The reward of Flame Potter has been sent, and you can choose the level of one skill plus one. ”
Wood's skills are still assassination-based.
Stealth LV1 (Passive): Adventurers are less likely to be detected and are permanently activated.
Cisna's skills are much more straightforward.
Holy Mark LV1: Increases the lethality of the weapon after activating the skill, lasts 3 minutes, and has a cooldown of 10 minutes.
Lily looked at the two people who were a little excited on the sofa, and also showed a relieved smile.
This is a 100,000-point profession, and these two children will at least be better than her in the future.
Until then, though, it was too dangerous for the dungeon to have no aura of a priest.
It seems that the only way to find a priest servant for this little pervert is to find a servant, but how can an incumbent priest be a servant to others so easily.
Lily's head started hurting again.
......
With a history dating back to before the Cataclysm, Yusai Castle is the oldest city in the northeastern part of the continent, and there is no one.
It's just winter, and light snow has begun to fall in the sky.
The trio walked on the snowy road in their overcoats.
Cisna looked at the falling snowflakes and recalled some of the past.
"Wood, do you remember the first winter you experienced in this city?"
Wood smiled when he heard this, how could he forget.
"I'm not a child anymore, how can I still fall in the snow and wait for you to save me?"
After speaking, I gradually recalled that night that was a little ridiculous and a little touching.
It was the first snow Wood saw when he came to the city, and it was falling a lot heavier than it was now.
After ten years in the south and not seeing snow, he ran out on the first snowy night.
He ran out into the street and couldn't find his way back to the manor.
For many people, it's just a matter of asking people on the road to know how to get there.
But this seemed impossible to Wood, who hated adults at the time.
Lost, he only felt that his legs were frozen by the cold, and his movements became more and more difficult.
After losing consciousness, he walked for an unknown amount of time, and slowly, he collapsed on the snow.
Pedestrians on the road come and go, and it seems that they are in a hurry.
No one stepped forward to help, even if it was just to pull him up.
In the aftermath of that catastrophe, human selfishness became more and more blatant in its manifestation.
Gradually, the snow began to bury the child.
Paston didn't kill him, the dungeon didn't kill him, and God had to clean it up in the end.
This was the boy's last thought before he lost consciousness.
The story that followed was simple, and it was touching for Wood at the time.
He still woke up, not frozen to death under the heavy snow, and did not see the Grim Reaper.
He was covered with a warm quilt and a match-burning fireplace in the room.
A blonde girl was lying on the edge of the bed, covered with a quilt, probably taking care of him all the time.
Suddenly, he was hit hard on the head, and the green-eyed maid reached out and began to pinch his face hard.
On that snowy night, even though his face was pinched and swollen at that time, the boy was still very happy.
In front of the two people who remembered, Lily also remembered something at this time and snorted.
"Hmph! At that time, this little ghost was very sullen, and no one except me and the eldest lady wanted to speak, and I was heartbroken for his self-autism. Now it's good, all the fancy intestines are out. ”
Lily glared back at Wood as she spoke, glaring at Wood as he dared not reply.
Cisna looked at the two of them and was even happier.
After thinking about it, he said a little evilly: "Actually, I feel that Wood has really grown up." I heard others say that he also learned to touch the girl's hair, and then said love words gently~ It's just a master of love! That's right, it is said that the girl's face is red, but there is no resistance!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Wood felt a chill behind him, looked at Hisna who was smiling a little wickedly, and then looked at Lily, who suddenly stopped, in a cold sweat on a snowy day.
"Anna seems to be a bit idle lately, next time I'll take her to the dungeon. ”
Lily, who had stopped, smiled back and said this, looked at Wood again, and continued on as if nothing had happened.
Wood was still sweating, looking at the angel-faced girl who still had a wicked smile.
Demons! It turns out that the angelic Hisna is the real demon!
Anna, I'm sorry, but God really bless you as a believer.
Remember to be spoiled by this hooligan maid when the time comes!
This is Wood's first prayer for the always lovely Anna, the true angel girl.
After a small episode, the trio came to the largest trading market in the city.
Every city has its own shades, and Yusai Castle is no exception.
This market sells everything from high-end equipment from unknown sources to slaves in chains to women who openly sell sex.
Wood felt a little uncomfortable at the sight of the slaves shivering in the snow and ice.
You're actually one of the lucky ones, aren't you?
What can be done to prevent such tragic things from happening, I am afraid that the only way to make the so-called dungeon disappear is to make it possible.
I can't help but start thinking so.
Lily and Cisna knew about Wood's past and took the somewhat sentimental boy's hands.
One left and one right, hold tightly.
The palm of the hand, very warm.
......
The three of them arrived at a tavern called Wright.
Lily didn't look elsewhere when she came in, and led Wood and them to the bar.
After sitting down, he said to an uncle with thick eyebrows and big eyes and a uniform in uniform: "Old Wright, do you want to find a junior one-star priest who is a backer, a fifth-level priest, willing to be a servant, and the kind of normal person." ”
The uncle known as Old Wright saw Lily in a maid's costume, and seemed a little scared, and replied cautiously: "Sister Lily, there are priests who are willing to be servants, but they are all so old, and those old bastards also came out to find their masters because they couldn't afford to pay for their experience points." ”
"What's the use of those waste, those who are dragging their feet, and who have to deduct a lot of experience points every month? Old Wright, you are going back more and more?" Lily looked a little dissatisfied, grabbed a bottle of wine casually, and didn't treat herself as an outsider, and just started drinking.
These current priests, one is more useless than the other, and the priest is notoriously more bastards, and there are countless people who just add a halo and hide aside and don't know what to do.
There are quite a few adventure parties that have been killed by this kind of priest.
Wright looked at Lily who was drinking, cold sweat broke out, and she had a headache.
Looking at Heathna and Wood next to her, the thought of finding a priest for their team made her head hurt even more.
Isn't this the little princess of the Nelito family? Although the boy over there doesn't know who it is, he was still holding Sister Lily's hand just now, can this be an ordinary person?
Lily was running out of bottles.
Old Wright also thought of something, looked at the two adventurers who had just taken office, and made a difficult decision in his heart.
"Sister Lily, do you remember Si'er? and his wife. Seeing Lily drinking, and bringing up some old things, old Wright sighed.
He was ready to tell some secrets, so many years had passed, and he couldn't protect her for long.
He and Lily were the only ones left in the old days.
Lily, who was drinking, heard the familiar name, put down the bottle, and smiled bitterly: "Of course I remember, the handsome Sir was killed by his slut." ”
looked at old Wright, who was also a little sad, and continued: "You and Sir stayed together every day at that time, and many of us thought that you had some special relationship. ”
Lily lowered her eyes and stared at the bottle, "What did you say about Si'er? Want to change the subject? I don't want to talk about those things in front of the two juniors." ”
Wood and Cisna were confused, but they didn't say anything, and Lily obviously didn't want to talk about it.
Old Wright shook his teeth: "Actually, when I just retired from the regiment and opened this tavern, Si'er's wife came to look for me. ”
When Lily heard this, she directly crushed the wine bottle in her hand.
"And then?"
A sound that is colder than the weather.
Old Wright took a deep breath and calmed himself.
"The woman was carrying Sir's child, and I couldn't kill her mother in front of a child. ”
Lily sneered when she heard this, "Heh, are you sure that kid is Si'er's, you should know better than me what virtues this slut has?" ”
As he spoke, his voice became louder, and he picked up another bottle of wine.
"You can't be wrong, I'm so familiar with Sir. Even if I was wrong, I would admit it, after all, I had raised that child for more than ten years. ”
Old Wright suddenly looked a little tired, but there was a smile on his face.
Seeing such an old friend, Lily took another sip of wine.
"It's a shame that the damn system didn't give you a pastor option at the time, and you didn't go and be a believer in that God's bitch. ”
Lily looked a little drunk, not sure if it was because of alcohol or the past.
Old Wright suddenly stopped talking, as if the next words made him unable to speak.
Lily looked at him in silence and continued, "Let me guess that this child was born after that slut's lover, the wizard, cursed Sir?"
Old Wright nodded slowly.
"Let me guess again, that curse is for children?"
Old Wright nodded again, then took out a cigarette out of nowhere and lit it silently.
The sadness of the past permeated the two like the smell of smoke.
"Call that kid out. ”
Lily looked at the fragments of the wine bottle on the table that she had crushed and broke the silence first.
Old Wright smoked a cigarette.
"Sister Lily......"
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Lily.
"Old Wright, you've been hiding it for so long, and you suddenly told me this, I'm sure there's something you can't do with that kid, right?"
After all, old friends, no matter how long it is, they can know what the other party is thinking.
The interrupted old Wright smiled wryly and finished smoking a cigarette, and then said to the three people at the bar, "Come with me." ”
After that, he left the bar and walked to the second floor.
Wood and Cisna only then found out that Wright's right leg was a prosthetic leg made of steel, and after thinking about it, they didn't ask much.
Everyone always has something that they don't want to be brought up again.
Lily saw the steel prosthetic leg, and the past made her even more uncomfortable.
Old Wright came to the second floor and pushed open the door to a room, and the group entered.
The room is very simple, but it still reveals a hint of girlish atmosphere.
The snow-white quilt was lifted, and a pale girl with no trace of blood sat up from the bed.
It was a bit of a surprise to suddenly see so many people, but it was still very polite.
He first said to old Wright: "Father, you don't bring a friend to tell me first, how rude it is for me to lie in bed like this." ”
Then he got up with some difficulty, put on his pajamas and saluted the three of Wood first, a warm smile appeared on his pale face, and then stretched out his hand.
"It's a pleasure to meet you guys for the first time, my name is Catherine. Catherine Joshua. ”
......
Behind the girl, Wright Joshua looked out the window, and the snowflakes were still falling.
