Chapter 49
Lei was hurt by Sui Xiong's damn questions, he thought about it very seriously, and then the more he thought about it, the more distressed he became, and he couldn't think of an answer that he could satisfy. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info
So this night, he lost sleep.
Of course, he didn't know that the questions raised by Sui Xiong were carefully crafted by some people in the earth network community to make readers experience the "malice of the world". Not to mention that he is just a bandit from another world, even the scholars of the earth often have a sad face when faced with this kind of question, and they can't come up with a perfect answer.
The next day, when Sui Xiong was about to discuss with him about the world and life, Lei directly tore two rags and plugged his ears to show his determination not to cooperate.
Of course, Sui Xiong could easily snatch away those two rags, but since people were unwilling to discuss such topics, why should he be bored with himself? The twisted melon is not sweet, and it is not interesting at all to force people to do things by coercive means.
But some things can not be forced, and some things can't.
Let's say, saving people.
It was getting late that day, and I saw that I was close to the edge of the Graystone Mountains. While camping, they heard fights and cries for help.
According to Lei's plan, he wanted to continue to move forward with more strength, even if he wanted to rush to the night, he had to leave the Graystone Mountains and camp again. But they were unlucky enough to come across a cliff, and Sui Xiong cast a reconnaissance spell to determine that it would take nearly a day to get around the cliff, and that the improvised bridge would not necessarily be able to get anywhere faster. When Sui Xiong himself was too lazy to help build the bridge, Lei had to choose to go around in circles, so the distance increased greatly, and he had to sleep in the mountains again.
Ray is not afraid of sleeping in the open, this is already on the edge of the Graystone Mountains, and theoretically there will be no monsters. Even if there were, most of them were defeated soldiers who had fled from a defeated battle in the depths of the mountain range, and these days he had traveled in the deep mountains, and the powerful demonic beasts had killed a lot, not to mention these weak chickens!
It's just that he is really tired of the environment in this mountain, and the poisonous snakes and beasts are not concerned for the time being, just those endless poisonous insects make him overwhelmed. Even if he has insect repellent, he doesn't have to worry about being bitten, just the sound of buzzing and chirping at night is annoying to death!
In addition, before going to bed every day, Sui Xiong would always talk to him about his ideals and life, which made him even more annoyed.
Sui Xiong no longer talked about those awkward questions, but just talked to him very seriously about topics such as "the most precious thing in a person is life, and life belongs to everyone only once......" or "a person has a big or small ability, but as long as he has this spiritual ......".
These topics weighed heavily on him, even more so than the egg pain. But he couldn't avoid such a topic, because it would make him feel weak inside.
However, discussing these topics before going to bed can obviously affect the quality of your sleep. Coupled with those "you sing and I will appear" endless chattering bugs, he can't sleep well almost every day, and his mental state is getting worse.
Therefore, he is very much looking forward to getting out of the mountains as soon as possible and entering the territory of the Gold Coin Federation. There will definitely be some people there, and perhaps the jellyfish deity, who has a hobby of life coaches, will shift his focus to someone else, so that he can at least sleep peacefully.
Even if this abominous jellyfish god still pesters him to ask this and that, and discuss those overly profound questions, at least there will be no noisy insects!
However, not today.
So Ray was in a very bad mood, so when he heard the sounds of fighting and calling for help in the distance, he didn't want to pay attention to it at all.
"Someone is in danger. Sui Xiong said.
"yes. He took out his blanket and planned to wrap himself up and sleep while he was tired from eating and drinking.
"Don't you want to save them?" asked Sui Xiong.
"I don't want to. Ray replied, and was about to lie down.
Sui Xiong jumped on his head quickly, pressing a tentacle against his temple.
This tentacle was cold and piercing, and there was an unusually sharp feeling, which made Lei couldn't help but suspect that his skull would be drilled into a hole in the next second, and the red and white inside would flow out together.
"You...... What do you want to do!" he asked aloud, startled.
"Help you correct your mind. Sui Xiong said with a smile, "There is too much filth and evil in your brain, I'll help you pull out a little." ”
Lei was shocked and hurriedly retorted: "Before that, my brain will be pumped out!"
"It doesn't matter. Sui Xiong said, "What you want to gain, you have to lose something, and this principle of equal exchange is a common principle in the world." Don't you think it's worth it to exchange a little brains for kindness and peace?"
"I don't think it's worth it at all! I don't want any hellish kindness and peace!" protested Ray.
"Opposition is invalid! Isn't it natural for the wicked to have the final say in the powerful?"
“...... I see, I'm going to save those people!"
Sui Xiong laughed and withdrew his tentacles: "Wise choice, do it earlier, wouldn't it save everyone trouble." ”
Ray smiled wryly, hung the spear on his back, thrust his sword into the scabbard at his waist, checked his equipment again, and then took a quick step towards the place where the fighting and cries for help had been heard.
His strength is strong, and after this period of trekking, he has become very accustomed to walking in the mountains, and he jumps step by step, like an ape jumping between mountains and trees, and it only takes a while to come to the place where the sound comes from.
In a forest, four adventurers were fighting a giant bear that was at least two people tall.
It is said that it is a fierce battle, but in fact, it is better to say that it is a unilateral defense and being beaten. The giant bear is very powerful, and its defense is also excellent, although it is a little slow to react, but it is very good at protecting its various vital points, so that adventurers have no chance to take advantage of it.
The four adventurers were not very old, the two who were in charge of frontal combat in full armor were about twenty-four or five, the one who roamed around with bows and arrows and tried to contain them was about twenty years old, and the one who was lying on the tree and using spells to provide support was not even twenty years old, which could be called a group of young people.
Being young often means a lack of adequate exercise and growth, which means a lack of strength. Young adventurers have the highest mortality rates because they are inexperienced and often unable to avoid danger – and those who are more likely to be able to avoid it by experienced adventurers.
For example, the giant bear that is fighting them, if it is an old river like Rhodes and Wren who encounters it, most of them will directly throw a piece of fresh meat at it, and then throw some messy around while it is eating meat, and then slowly retreat. They may even prepare some sweets and put them high in the trunk of the tree to leave, taking advantage of the bear's rivalry with the tree.
Most bears in this world are lazy and sweet-loving, and when there is easy food, they are generally reluctant to risk injury to fight heavily armed adventurers, and if sweets are close at hand, even if you have no weapons and turn and run wildly, they will probably not bother to pay attention to you with a "I am prey" posture.
But these young people are apparently unaware of these experiences, or lack the preparation to do so. So they had to fight the bear with their bodies that weren't strong enough.
The odds of winning such a battle are slim, and the giant bear has almost grown to the apex of the "beast", and it will step into the category of "monster" one step further. Converted to adventurers, it would take at least a team of well-equipped and well-stocked veteran adventurers - probably at the level of Gerald and his companions under the pseudonym "Bald Nyon" at the time - to be able to kill them without serious injuries.
And these four young people, in Sui Xiong's opinion, on the night of the skeletons in Baiyezi Village, Gerald, who was invincible in the skeleton group with a battle axe, is estimated to be able to kill one or two of them in a dozen or four, and the rest will be injured one by one.
Obviously, there was no way they could defeat the bear. The reason why there have been no dead or injured so far is nothing more than a reasonable team mix and a certain ability to resist pressure.
The two in charge were warriors and priests, both heavily armored and shield-wielding. This sturdy armor has helped them a lot, saving them from crisis more than once. And with the help of heavy armor, the priest can also find time to pray from time to time, perform a magic spell, and restore his strength for his companions or himself.
In addition to this, the mage's spells also played no small role. Although there were no advanced spells, just simple shield spells, missile techniques, slippery spells, blurred spells, etc., the young mage had a good grasp of the timing of his spells, so he was able to help every time.
In other words, they're constantly draining the team's spellcasting power to wear down the bear's stamina.
Well, just physical strength. Because so far, the giant bear has not been injured at all.
If this continues, the outcome is obvious - when the mana is exhausted, the four young men will no longer be able to withstand the onslaught of the giant bear. At that time, maybe the archer will be able to escape, and one of the warriors and priests will be able to escape, but at least one of the two will be left, and the mage who is not very agile will definitely be in trouble.
Ray lurked near the battlefield, quietly watching their battle, but did not rush to strike.
"Aren't you saving people?" Sui Xiong passed his words into his mind through a spell.
Ray shook his head lightly and replied with the help of temporary telepathic communication: "It's not time yet, they can still hold on." ”
"When they can't hold on, they're going to be seriously injured. ”
"It's not that serious, I'll do it before that – for these young people, the experience of fighting until the last minute is invaluable and can be effective in helping them grow. ”
Sui Xiong didn't urge him anymore, and when it came to risk-taking, Lei was an expert. Since he said that it was better for these young people, Sui Xiong chose to believe him.
Let alone...... Even if he really refuses to save people, at the critical moment, Sui Xiong can take action in person.
In a battle at this level, not everything is under control!
