Chapter 318: The Lost Sky
At night, Harumi was unusually quiet. The injury on her calf made her so painful that she couldn't speak, so she could only recuperate. Let someone sigh, the wild girl has finally stopped.
At the suggestion of his companion, Halumi took out the magical knowledge he hadn't read for a long time and studied it, shifting his focus to see if he could take advantage of the feeling of dizziness and reduce some of the pain.
Kaya was cleaning up the wreckage of dinner next to the campsite. Fen was frowning and rinsing his mouth, hoping to dilute the uncomfortable taste in his mouth. Just because she's willing to eat what she makes doesn't mean she's really satisfied with the taste.
Looking at Fen's troubled appearance, Lin also knew what the trouble this lich was coming these days, and asked, "Will you still taste some strange tastes?" ”
"Any thoughts? Also, why don't you all feel that smell? ”
"I'm guessing, maybe it's a problem with your new body."
In response to such speculation, Fen frowned and asked, "You mean this body is flawed?" ”
"It's probably a bit of an overkill to say that there are defects. I think it's a side effect of strengthening physical performance. ”
"What kind of side effects? Yes! "This woman who can become a lich is not unintelligent. Awakened, she immediately thought of the possibility and asked, "You mean the problem of feeling too acute?" ”
"Yes, in fact, you have experienced similar situations, and even we have discussed them. That is the phenomenon that the body condensed by power in the past receives too much external information, causing the phenomenon of mental interference. I remember saying that a lot of people don't react so pleasantly, but it's actually a protective mechanism. Including sluggishness, in fact, it is not just avoiding a lot of unnecessary interference. ”
"But at that time, I got used to it."
"Isn't this just a testament to the difference in your control over the body condensed by power and the real body? And I'm guessing that maybe the body you bothered to build is not only the acceptance of various substances, that is, the resistance is different from ordinary people; The acceptable range of various cognitions is also much wider and more sensitive than that of ordinary humans. That's why we taste something we can't taste and smell something we can't smell. And those things that ordinary people can't perceive may be because they are extremely small enough to form a taste that ordinary people can perceive. But your keen senses can catch the tiniest of flavors and then identify them. However, those nutrients that may be needed by the human body are true, but for the average person, they may not be able to consume excessive amounts of substances. So if the amount is large enough for the average person to perceive the taste, it may be a sign of danger. So under the effect of the human body's protective mechanism, those tastes must be unpleasant, as a warning to those who eat those things. It's like you can eat poison as if nothing happened, but you probably don't like to eat those things. ”
"Oh, you're wrong. The ones I ate yesterday have a unique taste, and they are quite spicy. If it weren't for the small portions, I'd like to eat more. ”
…… Well, give the wrong example.
However, for the above words, someone is only idle to the extent of snorting. Give the lich more time, and sooner or later she will come to her senses and adjust to the situation in front of her.
You must know that Fen put on high heels for the first time after the resurrection of the Great Sage Tower, but he complained that the thing was going to fall to his death. Within three days, she would be able to wear high heels and carry the two big dogs with gray hooves and white noses to the sky and the earth, and there was no way out.
You must know that at that time, Lin had already attached a magic tattoo to the four legs of the two dog-type demonic beasts. They are the real sense of the foot is the road, the eaves and the wall, can only be regarded as a small meaning. Such an invincible realm is of no use to a certain lich who has returned to the lost land after a thousand years.
Wearing pointed-toe high heels, a certain lich who was half a head taller than usual, chased the two big dogs in a way that caused them to collapse and fall to the ground, with their tongues hanging on the corners of their mouths, as if they had been called by the god of Warcraft. The two big dogs, who were forced to go nowhere, finally had to whimper and beg for mercy.
With such achievements in the past, chatting with Fen today is just a matter of spending some lips and tongues, and you don't need to exert any effort to get a good feeling. Someone will not refuse to do such a small thing.
But having said that, when being complained about to the point of being speechless, someone's expression is still quite exciting.
Looking at this person who was so swallowed by himself that he couldn't speak, Fen didn't feel any guilt at all. She just thought about her situation very seriously, and muttered to herself: "The previous body was condensed by power, so how to change is just a matter of thought. Now that it has become a living body, it is equally sensitive and has a wider range of feelings, so how can it be controlled? Or is it just a matter of getting used to it? ”
Suddenly, a thought came to my mind irrepressibly. A pair of beautiful eyes almost bent into a crescent moon, and the teeth were slightly exposed, and Fen looked seductively at a certain man.
"What are you seeing?" A man who was puzzled asked almost subconsciously.
The next morning, the refreshed former Demon King bathed in the mid-spring morning sun and stretched out. In fact, the current condition of this body is not all bad.
The two apprentices, as always, kept a tacit understanding and pretended to be no different from usual. Breakfast should be made for breakfast, other preparations should be made, other preparations should be made.
Although Halumi's injuries have only been around for a day, they are not much better. But as a half-druid, she can still do some simple treatment and pain relief. The daily work does not hinder it, it is just a little slower. For her to be completely quiet and recuperate, she may have to break both legs.
When everyone was ready and set off again, a man who was paralyzed like a dead dog, and who didn't even have the strength to eat breakfast, was thrown into the caravan.
Two young girls sit in the driver's seat, with Kaya holding the reins. Halumi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, didn't want to sit in the carriage, but simply couldn't stand the environment where he couldn't see the sky, couldn't see the mountains and forests, and couldn't feel the wind. So she preferred to sit next to her companion and keep her injured leg as comfortable as possible. It's definitely not that I don't want to look at the man who howls like a pig all night, that prostration, miserable white face.
The calm black-haired brown-skinned girl drove a car, although it was a little slower, but it was smooth and safe. It won't be like when Harumi held the reins before, it was fast and slow, left and right, as he pleased, without a trace. No one would have imagined that a carriage ride would be turned upside down and motion sickness.
Kaya, on the other hand, always finds out where the traps are in advance, and most of them are solved by triggering. Because according to their teacher's instructions, if they simply bypassed, the person who set the trap probably wouldn't be kind enough to turn around and lift the trap. This will only harm other careless travelers who walk on this path.
And without a wild girl running crazy, everyone doesn't need to stare at a certain girl nervously, worrying about when she encounters something that can't be solved, or pulls a blame back, but a group of people don't have time to respond.
In terms of consequentialism, such a journey is one less psychological burden. So the two older ones agreed not to untie the horses again, and to give a wild girl an excuse to run around.
Especially now that there are only four horses left, and despite the weight of this wagon, there is no need for four horses to pull it. Probably two, or even one horse will be enough. And there are no people who have any status in the field, so they can ride the rules of a few carriages. Basically, there are many horses pulling carts, which is more like showing off their wealth.
But how can a person with real status and status only use horses to pull the cart? There are many people who use elephant-level giant beasts, or cow-type monsters, or even those who use the ground to pull a cart on a wurm.
In short, tying four horses to pull the cart is really not a very big deal.
As for someone who came to his senses, he was lazily lying at the back end of the caravan. Rest your head on the backsplash and look up at the clouds in the sky.
The sky of the Lost Land is a little different from the sky of the Earth. The sky here is more colorful, probably filled with strange energy that the earth does not have, and from time to time it reflects brilliant light and strange scenes. Lin once saw a scene where the entire sky was filled with magnificent aurora borealis in a place where power was very active.
Yes, it's like the Aurora, a sight that can only be seen on Earth if you are close to the Arctic Circle and you have to be very lucky. In the lost land, as long as you have the leisure to look up, you can always see it several times a year. Day or night, sometimes if you are lucky, you can look up at the sky in the afternoon when it is sunny for several days, and you can see the colorful aurora borealis like clouds.
And among the clouds of the labyrinth, though not as described in the beliefs of ordinary people, there is a kingdom of the gods in it, and angels fly between the clouds; Or the heroic spirits who fought for the gods on earth, riding winged pegasus, freely playing in the kingdom of the gods. But the sky of the Lost Land has another special product of the fantasy world - the floating city.
The ancient empire spent countless resources to create five Mithic cores, uprooted five mountains, and became islands floating in the sky. This is not a legend, but a force that exists in reality. To this day, the five floating cities still follow a special trajectory, slowly cruising the sky. Sometimes, with a bit of luck, you can look up and see an island hanging high in the sky.
In every city, countless magicians have lived in it for generations. They call themselves heavenly people, as distinct from the human beings who live on the surface of the earth. It has the most complete magical heritage, and has a collection of rare materials that have been preserved from ancient times, some of which are even extinct on the surface. It can be said that the Floating City is a holy place that all magicians in the Lost Land yearn for.
