Chapter 45: Reinforcements from Far Away
"Ah~~~" Catherine groaned and woke up from her coma, not knowing where she was for a while. I haven't opened my eyes yet, but I just feel warm all over my body, which makes people lazy and reluctant to wake up.
"I'm not dead. Catherine whispered to herself, slowly opening her eyes. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw a light path paved with fluorite: "It turns out that it is still here, why is it so noisy around." β
"Marcia, it's the ghosts, give it to me, bite them to death. β
"No, I'm a peace-loving ......"
"I'll cook in a moment. β
"Is that the group~~~~~?
"This gentleman, I always feel that you have some subtle disrespect for the servants of the gods. β
"Hahahaha, that's a misunderstanding, Priest Teresa. If you don't believe me, we can find a secluded place and discuss the teachings of the god of wind in a thorough and frank manner, what do you think?"
"You're getting too close. "Bang. β
"Wow, it hurts, why kick me, it hurts me. β
"The gods teach us that you deserve to be kicked. β
"Hey, is it really a god to say something like that?"
"Don't make any noise. "Bang. β
"Hey, why did you beat me too, aren't we teammates?
"Shut up, or you'll clean up the ghosts for me. β
"I was wrong, please forgive me for my rudeness. β
"As much as I would love to sympathize with you, in order to maintain my honest character and firm belief in Lord Anemo, I have to say, well played. β
"Bastard, what are you doing this man leaning over here, get me out of the way, hurry up, go away. And you, don't think that if you're pretty, I'll forget that you're a man too. You also go away, go away. β
"What do you see me doing? I didn't lean in, I was just drawing. β
"It's definitely not a good painting, admit it, are you painting nudes again?"
"This word makes me want to execute you on behalf of Her Majesty the Queen. β
"Ha, it's you, Pannis. Catherine smiled heartily and struggled to sit up.
"Miss Catherine. Pansy's head appeared above Catherine, and she cheered with joy on her face, "Thank you, gods, that you are finally awake." β
"How long have I been unconscious?" asked Catherine.
"It's been less than ten minutes. Mimosa said happily on the side, "I didn't expect you to recover so quickly." β
"Eldest sister, you're awake. Lina's head poked out from next to Pansy's head, "How do you feel? I've been using several healing spells on you in a row." β
"Thank you. A qiΔ are very good. Catherine sat up with the help of Pansy, and when she looked closely, there were not only her own group of people in the sewer, but also several outsiders: "Why are you here?"
That's what I was about to ask. Pannis also walked over, still smiling all over his face, but there was some strange emotion in his eyes: "Why are you here?"
"Of course we're here, it's the city of innocence. Catherine was surprised and said, "How could you not know that we were in the City of Innocence?"
"This is actually the city of innocence?" Lina exclaimed uncontrollably, "Sister, you're not joking. β
"Looks like something interesting is happening. Catherine stroked Vivien's hair, which was still paralyzed, and sighed and said, "Tell me about your experience when you rest later." By the way, how did you get here? It's really surprising that you, who should have been nearly a thousand kilometers away, suddenly appeared here and saved the four of us in time. Not. How did you save us? Giant golem? Did you get rid of it? No, this is still where you were, where are the golems?"
"You don't remember anything?" Lina asked, with a strange look on her face as if she was holding back a smile, "Don't you remember what you did before you fell unconscious?"
"Did I do anything ridiculous?" Catherine's face turned red at once. He smiled a little sheepishly and said, "I'm sorry, I can't remember at all." β
"It's okay, big sister. Your final image is very heroic. Lina patted Catherine on the head, "Remember the card that Pannis threw at you? β
"Cards?" Catherine frowned, recalling what had happened before she fell unconscious, "as if I did catch something." β
"By your side. Pannis pointed to Catherine's side and said, "That's it, you can see it when you look back." β
Catherine turned her head, and sure enough, she saw a thin card on the ground, glowing silver under the cold fluorescence. Picked up the card and wiped it, held it in his hand and looked closely, although the card was very thin, it was hard, and it seemed to be cut from a blank spar. On the surface of the card, there are uneven marks, as if some goblin characters are formed from these uneven lines. Flip over the other side of the card, and there is a smooth plane one finger wide running through the card, this smooth line is different from other uneven positions, and you can even show your own face when you put your face together.
"What is this?" Catherine flipped through the cards in confusion, and could not see why a small card could save her, but before she could ask in detail, she found that the girl who had just been bought by a dinner and rushed out with a screaming was carrying a giant sword that was one man high, and ran back with a happy face.
"Mr. Pannis, mission accomplished. The female swordsman poked the giant sword to the ground casually, and the tip of the sword hit the ground with a dull sound, showing the weight of the giant sword: "When is the meal?"
"Well, no hurry, no hurry. Pannis said with a dry smile in his eyes: "If you want to eat, you must camp first, hahahaha." β
"Mr. Pannis. The female swordsman's hand touched the hilt of the sword again, and she stared at Pannis with a very dangerous gaze, like a beast that was looking at its prey before launching a hunt: "What you just promised, you won't just lie to me casually." β
"How is that possible, hahahaha. Pannis scratched the back of his head and smirked and said, "I'm so honest, how can I lie to you?" Hahaha, let's camp now, well, right now, hahahaha." β
"Really?" the swordswoman looked at Pennis, still skeptical. Confused, he said, "Is my intuition wrong?"
"That's right, it must be so, let's set up camp together, it's not early today, it's time to rest. Pannis nodded sternly, greeted everyone, and as soon as he turned his head, he turned his back and pouted: "Cut, so I don't like this kind of guy who relies on animal instinct as the basis for judgment, it's really sensitive." β
Catherine had a confused look on her face. Watch as a group of people begin to busily prepare for the station. It can be seen that several of these people are very unfamiliar with this aspect of work, and they can make a fire in a hurry, although it is still born in the end, but it takes half an hour for such a simple thing to do, and it leaves several gray and black marks on the faces of the two girls who make the fire. No, it's not two girls, one of them has an obvious Adam's apple, it should be a very good-looking man: "There are people like zΓ i in this world." It's really full of deep malice towards women. β
"Ha, big sister, did you see Amber?" Lina and Catherine sat back-to-back so that Catherine could lean on her. It's a little more comfortable: "That's what I thought when I first met him." β
"These people ......," Catherine said uncertainly, "is it the elite of the various churches you met when you went to Dirsaren this time? β
"Yes, that's them. Lina was playing against Vivian, who only had eyes to move, who didn't blink in support for a long time, and heard Catherine's question. took the opportunity to turn his head and secretly blinked his eyes a few times, and the angry Vivian's eyes were on fire: "Those few are the temple faction, not the folk faction." Even if they go out to work in the field, there are still many low-level monks who serve them, and of course they won't do such heavy work. But they're okay, they're going to try their best to learn to do what they can do these days, and they're very conscious, so they're not annoying. β
"And what about you?" Catherine asked amusedly, "Why didn't you do your job and bully Vivien here?"
"They're giving me a day off today, haha. Lina proudly poked her finger at Vivian's puffing face: "It's very considerate to let me take care of the eldest sister and this stupid guy here." β
"I think you should hurry up and get some fire-resistant gear now. Catherine said sternly, "Otherwise...... Maybe there will be a murder soon. β
It is true that as Catherine saw, the three of the Aeolus Church, Teresa and Benn, plus the Anbo of the Temple of Balance, had never done such tedious work before, such as lighting a fire, cleaning the ground, assembling a tent, and so on, each of which would keep them busy, but fortunately, there were also the stores of Pennis, Marcia, and the elf Moore, so that the camping work could go smoothly. However, even the three people of the temple sect are also full of the easy-going clergy, and they do not disdain these trivial tasks, but will treat themselves as an ordinary person to study hard to learn these chores that they are not good at, even if they are two Fengshen believers, although they usually look at Lina and Pannis unpleasantly because of the deep contradictions accumulated between the two large sects due to the absorption of believers, but along the way, they will always humbly ask for advice like Lina and Pannis, who represent the Temple of the Earth Goddess, this style is really difficult to hateγ Soon, a small camp was set up in the sewers, and a cauldron was set up on the blazing fire, and Pannis stood by the pot and operated it, and soon the sewers were filled with aroma.
"Where did you get the firewood?" Catherine asked, confused, "No, it's not firewood, what kind of fuel is it?"
"Picked it up. Lina smiled mysteriously: "We ...... before"
"Stupid Lina, give me death. Vivian, who was pillowed on Lina's lap, suddenly jumped up, and with a wave of her hand, a huge fireball blasted towards Lina: "Accept the punishment of heaven." (To be continued......)
ps: Hahaha, I said I forgot something, it turned out that I forgot to update.
