Chapter Ninety-Nine: The Ability to Evolve
The magic removal ring in his right hand was inlaid with fine gems that could refract purple light through the sunlight, and he reached out to wipe a handful of sweat. I happened to see some subtle words on the refracted shadow.
These words Luo Xue seems to be familiar, and the shape and structure are somewhat similar to the words that connected the dots in the void when Luo Xue first used the ring battle technique.
He immediately understood that the ring might be unusual, so he took it off and looked at it several times, but there was nothing unusual except for the words cast by the shadow.
The script didn't belong to any of the languages of any country Luo Xue had ever seen, as if it had been born out of thin air.
Seeing that he couldn't figure anything out, he put the ring back on, touched his head, and walked back to town.
It seems that she must find a place where she can learn this kind of writing! Luo Xue thought to herself, her footsteps did not stop, and the dust and sand were raised.
Every time she used the Momentum Technique, Luo Xue's right hand and right leg were a little inflexible and she lost control of her body.
He made a guess in his heart: this might be at the cost of the temporary weakness of the soul to gain control over the surrounding environment.
If he used it repeatedly, it would definitely have an impact on his fragile soul, causing his lifespan to decrease rapidly.
But he only has a one-year lifespan, and he doesn't care about the reduction of lifespan, even if it is reduced again, how much can it be reduced?
Back at the Forest Medicine Workshop, he lowered the heavy medicine basket to the ground and smashed a small hole in the unpaved ground. Vank, who heard the voice, walked out of the back room with a grinding pestle in his hand.
"Are you okay, aren't you in danger?" he touched Luo Xue's body with both hands, nervously examining his whole body. Seeing that Fanke was so worried, a warm current poured into Luo Xue's heart.
"It's okay! After returning from Overwatch, I'm no longer the one who ran away from the beast. Luo Xue stared at Vanke's eyes and said firmly.
I still remember that I was a little panicked when I encountered the wind and grass, and although I am not strong now, I can more or less take up arms to defend myself.
You can even get one step closer and fight to protect the others. Luo Xue didn't tell Fanke about this goal, but he already kept it in mind.
Seeing Luo Xue's eyes, and also checking that Luo Xue's body was intact and there were no injuries, Fan Ke touched his beard and said happily: "It is worthy of the young man I am optimistic about." ”
"Of course!" Luo Xue proudly raised her left hand, her fighting spirit agitated, showing her strength.
He looked at Luo Xue with satisfaction and said to him, "With you, I don't need to go to the forest to collect medicine." After all, I'm too old to do this kind of work all the time. ”
Collecting medicine is a lucrative job, but instead of using it as a means to make money, Van Ke opened a medicine shop to heal the people of Fanshui Town almost free of charge. Therefore, they are also widely praised in the town of Fanshui, and no one has ever troubled them.
Luo Xue nodded and said, "Although it has become dangerous outside, and there are mid-level demonic beasts infested, I will inherit your job, please rest assured that I will do it!"
When Fan Ke heard Luo Xue's words, he thought of his thoughts and talked heavily. "Alas!"
"If only that kid Fan Zhen were still here, if he saw that you were so similar to him, he would definitely become a close friend with you. ”
"They are all people full of ideals, but it's a pity that ......" Vank's tone lowered, and Luo Xue knew that he was in a state of loss.
Seeing that Fan Ke had forgotten to put down the grinding pestle in his hand, Luo Xue carried the medicine basket into the back, which was the place dedicated to processing concocted herbs.
With a clear goal, this goal will definitely not change, Luo Xue can't change the whole world as Fan Xi'er said, but he hopes to at least protect Fan Shui Town.
Luo Xue narrowed her eyes and looked at a pile of unknown objects in the courtyard.
In a corner of the backyard were cluttered with weapons and armor, which should have been the promise made by Fan Xi'er in Overwatch City, to bless the equipment of the Sprout Mercenary Regiment.
When they left, the people from the Young Sprout Mercenary Group came here and handed Fan Xi'er a lot of equipment, and it seems that Grandpa Fan Ke also approved their agreement.
Snake scale shields, twisted straight swords, oak bows and spiked double knives, all kinds of equipment that can be called fine products swept in front of Luo Xue's eyes one by one, and he couldn't help but feel that the Young Sprout Mercenary Group was well-equipped.
In his only cooperation with the Sprout Mercenary Regiment, he had already seen their tacit understanding under the command of the regiment's leader, Eve.
Just as Luo Xue touched the weapons beside her, Fan Xi'er's indifferent words came from behind her: "Be careful not to break them, otherwise I will be very distressed." ”
"Your tone is completely different from yesterday," Luo Xue said half-jokingly, but was glared back coldly by Fan Xi'er.
"It wasn't because of you yesterday, but now I'm ready. Fan Xi'er wrapped her fingers around the ends of her hair and said to Luo Xue.
"Okay, okay, I'll go. ”
Luo Xue, who didn't know what she was angry about, had no choice but to rub her hands and walk back into the house, but Fan Xi'er pulled her cuffs again.
"Don't you know? The root ornament you gave me still has a remnant of vitality. Fan Xi'er lowered her voice and said to Luo Xue.
"What jewelry?" Luo Xue touched her head, unable to think of anything.
"You bought it for me when I was leaving...... Gifts" Fan Xi'er was a little shy when she talked about the gift, but finally said it out loud.
"I really don't know. Luo Xue tilted her head and thought carefully about what happened at that time, but she really couldn't remember anything, only remembering that she seemed to have been studying hard in the library at that time.
"Look at it again!" Fan Xi'er, who mistakenly thought that Luo Xue was deliberately teasing her, was so angry that she took out the handicraft and stuffed it in front of Luo Xue's eyes.
The intertwined miniature stump threaded by the red thread looks like a handicraft carved from the branches of a tree, but its body is glowing slightly, faintly similar to the luster after Fan Xi'er blessed the weapon, and it looks very familiar.
"Mmmm! It's this ornament, it's this ornament!" Luo Xue said yes again and again, but in her mind, she was thinking about why she would forget about this kind of thing, and in order not to disappoint Fan Xi'er, she lied that she had bought this handicraft.
Sure enough, hearing Luo Xue's admission, Fan Xi'er's expression softened slightly, and she raised the miniature stump and talked to Luo Xue: "When I used the ability of awakening to bless it, I found that it reawakened and had a little green bud on the stump. ”
Hearing Fan Xi'er say this, Luo Xue really found that the green shoots on the stump were so conspicuous.
Fan Xi'er's ability cannot be used on living creatures with life force, which is one of the limitations that has been discovered by the ability testing agency. But now the stump in her hand has broken that bondage.
"It should be that the stump is already half-dead, and it may completely lose its vitality at any time, so that my ability can judge it to be a dead thing. But in a successful blessing, let it come back to life. ”
