Chapter 77: Rescued
If Hale was still awake, he would have recognized that this was the voice of Drake, and it was like a hammer on the chest of the mysterious creature, and suddenly the creature on the other side stopped its magic on Hall.
Its eyes changed from contempt and arrogance at the beginning, to a hint of horror in an instant.
However, it did not withdraw immediately, but silently looked at the already unconscious Hall, and after a few breaths, a trace of hatred flashed in its eyes, and then slowly turned away.
With the flapping of the huge wings, the mysterious creature gradually faded away, but the original storm did not happen again, only the goose feather snow fell silently.
The Wind Elf, which lost control, fell rapidly from a height of nearly 10,000 meters.
However, at this moment, a red fire suddenly appeared in the sky, it turned out to be a fire dragon with spread wings, soaring in the snow, the woman standing on the back of the fire dragon was wrapped in red armor, even so it still showed a delicate figure, a huge metal helmet covered her face, and only long yellow hair flew behind her.
The fire dragon under her seat let out a soft roar, tilted its head up, and rushed towards the wind elf.
Then it firmly grasped the outer wall of the bubble with its huge claws, so that the force did not burst the bubble, and slashed through the air with a trail of flames, and swooped towards the ground.
At the same time, six dragon shadows emitting a faint light suddenly burst out of the clouds on the side of the fire dragon.
The gray dragon was covered in rock-like scales, more than three times larger than the other dragons, and the man on the dragon's back was taller than Worf, and his whole body was armed with rock armor, and he stood still.
Apparently this person is Beere, the captain of the Skyrim Rangers.
Biel's helmet was so heavy that it looked like the head of a rock troll.
Seven wurms flew rapidly in the air, each dragging a slender cloud line behind their tails, suddenly approaching each other, flying side by side, the cloaks behind the seven dragon knights fluttered, and the totems of different colors on them were mysterious and ancient, symbolizing the most powerful power of the principality.
At this time, the gray rock dragon came to the side of the fire dragon, and at the same time, Biel's voice came from under the heavy helmet: "Orfina, when that adult released the [Silent Realm], the seven of us couldn't get close together, I thought these children were dead, but I didn't expect that adult to show mercy, this is really too strange." ”
The female dragon knight with a fiery figure called Orfina seemed a little unhappy, and said: "The bloody badge that has been lost for many years appeared in the eye of the storm, we expected that the lord was going to snatch it, but it was still too late, although we tried our best to stop it, but the bloody badge was still snatched away, let's think about how to go back and recover first......
As the seven spoke, no one noticed that Shakira in the bubbles opened her eyes slightly, rubbing a hexagonal gem in her hand, and her expression was a little happy.
The next morning, when the day was already dawning, the villagers in a small village on the east side of the Giffen Mountains were out to work with hoes and rakes, surrounded by verdant forests, and the mountains in the distance were silent and majestic, and everything seemed very normal, until the cry of a teenager broke the silence, and many people looked sideways at the hut where the shouting sounded.
"No! don't!" Hale screamed as he sat up from the bed, covered in cold sweat.
"Child, are you awake...... Have a nightmare?" An old voice came from a chair not far from Hall.
Hale wiped the sweat from his forehead, looked around, and found himself in a very ordinary room, with carved wooden tables and chairs neatly arranged, ornaments made of animal skins hanging on the walls, and the fire in the fireplace still burning, and there was a slight feeling of warmth.
Sitting at the window was a lean old man, about sixty or seventy years old, balding, who was looking at Hall with kind eyes.
At this time, Hall's mind was blank, and he even forgot about the attack last night, presumably because of the great impact on his spirit.
Holding his forehead, which was still very swollen and painful, for a long time, Hall spoke: "Uncle, did you save me?" I think about it, yesterday I seemed to be ...... It was in the Giffen Mountains that I encountered a snowstorm. ”
The old man shook the bags under his eyes, and said with a smile: "The old man doesn't have that much ability, it was the seven adults who sent you to the village, I just left you here for two nights, and now it has been the third day since you came here." At first, you had a splitting headache and were unconscious, but after taking the medicine given by those adults, you gradually got better. ”
Hall still couldn't remember how he fainted, shook his head vigorously, and asked, "I don't know who the seven adults the old man said are......"
The old man smiled and said, "Hehe, of course, the only ones who can walk freely in Jifen Mountain are those seven adults, and the world calls them Sky Hunters. ”
Hall almost bounced out of bed in shock and asked, "Sir, you mean...... SkyRangers saved us? And seven?"
The old man nodded and said, "That's right, in fact, they are very helpful knights, they often rest in the village, and those who have been rescued by them can thank them in person, and if you are lucky, you can also get the signatures of the adults." But this time, they seem to have encountered something terrible, and left in a hurry, just entrusting the three of you to the old man's care. ”
"It's a shame. Hall's eyes were full of regret, but he didn't really feel much regret in his heart, but was deeply occupied by a huge question.
What is it that can gather seven Skyrim Rangers to dispatch?
Hall struggled to remember, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind, a large black shadow flashed in his head, and then his head began to ache violently again.
He whispered with a pale face, "Is it it...... It's the dragon......"
I have to say that the creature that seemed to be a dragon had caused great trauma to Hall's spirit, so even when he recalled his encounter with it, Hall was drenched in sweat at the moment.
After a long pause, Hall said to the old man on the side: "Uncle, you said that my partners also came here together, why didn't I see them?"
The old man took a puff of his pipe and said, "They, they heard that this village is frequented by the Skyline Hunters, so they went to guard the outside of the village, hoping that the Skyline Hunters would come again and meet them. ”
Hall was speechless for a while, and said secretly: "What two guys who are not angry......"
Wiping the beads of sweat on his forehead, Hall got up from the bed with difficulty, and said: "Uncle, please prepare some water and food for me, you can accept this gold coin, although it is a pity that I can't thank the seven adults in person, but I still want to recover my strength as soon as possible and continue to hurry." ”
The old man smacked his pipe and said, "You're welcome, those who were rescued by those seven adults are all our distinguished guests, and the old man is not short of those few gold coins, wait a while, I'll go get food." ”
It was the first time that Hall had heard that someone had not put gold coins in his eyes, and he was a little surprised, but he felt that the momentum emanating from this old man did not look like an ordinary farmer.
It wasn't long before the old man brought the food, and Hale devoured it.
While eating, he asked the old man, "Uncle, what is this village called, is it on the east side of the Giffen Mountains?"
The old man leisurely snorted his pipe, nodded and said, "Yes, you have successfully crossed the Giffen Mountains, this village is called Snail Village, located a hundred miles east of the Giffen Mountains. ”
Hearing this strange name, Hall put down the food in his hand and asked, "Snail Village, how can there be such a strange village name?"
The old man smiled slightly and said, "Everyone says so, maybe there are a lot of seventh-level demonic beast giant snails living around the village, so it's so named, you will see it when you leave." ”
"A lot of seventh-level demonic beasts!" Hearing this, Hall almost swallowed the chicken leg bone in his hand without being frightened. You must know that the wolf king Sahn that he killed with all his strength before was only a fifth-level demonic beast!
When the old man saw that Hall was so excited, he comforted him and said, "Don't move, you're not completely cured." Don't get excited, although high-level magical beasts are very dangerous, there are also particularly docile ones among them, such as the giant snail, which is a very docile magical beast. Known as Elras's strongest defense, they are born with an incomparably hard shell, and once a wurm once grabbed a giant snail for lunch, and spent three days and three nights failing to bite through the snail shell, and finally had to send them back untouched. Human swords, and even low-level magic, are difficult to hurt them, so they are rated as seventh-level magical beasts, but they don't take the initiative to hurt people. ”
When Hall heard this, he nodded and said, "But because it is too docile, it may become the prey of human adventurers, you must know that this shell is a very precious equipment material, and anything on the body of a seventh-level demonic beast can be sold for tens of thousands of gold coins." ”
The old man laughed again and said, "You don't have to worry about this, the snails near the village are not completely immune to fighting back when attacked, they will spray a kind of acid mist that can blind people for a short time to drive away predators. Moreover, it is located within the boundaries of the Giffen Forest, and few people dare to enter. ”
When Hall heard this, he was even more surprised, and said that he had not left the Giffin Forest yet.
But on second thought, it's right, how could the seven adults be in and out of an ordinary village so often?
So Hall asked tentatively: "Uncle, didn't you say that the Giffen Forest is full of fierce high-level magical beasts? ”
