Chapter 27: The Eagle and the Ranger

"Fluttering!"

With a slight flapping of wings, a round-faced fat chicken, ah no, owl glides down from the sky and lands on Wren's outstretched left arm.

"Goo~Goo~~"

The one-foot-long gray-white owl with feathers crooked its neck, staring at the human in front of it with a pair of big eyes, and two short and one long cries came out of its mouth one after another.

Wren's domesticated animal is level nine and can understand what the owl in front of him is trying to say.

Throwing a reassuring expression at the dwarf, Wren put away the weapon in his hand and said to the owl in front of him with some regret:

"Okay, I know Shauna, you're working hard. But I really didn't have any dried fish on me. ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand to give the other party a touch of the head to kill.

"Goo!"

The owl tilted its neck to the side, spreading its wings to spread Wren's outstretched palm, and its meaning was self-evident.

Mu has a small dried fish, and you still want to touch me?

I want to have peaches!

"This owl...... Eat fish? ”

Looking at the owl that jumped on Wren's shoulder, Nanzhuo's eyes were full of question marks.

If he remembered correctly, wild owls lived by eating small birds and insects, and fish, although occasionally eaten, was not a staple food.

Why does this owl only stare at small dried fish?

Memories of the past slowly surfaced in his mind, and the corners of Wren's mouth also hooked up a smile.

"It's Shauna, and I was raised by a friend of mine, and I know it well. It's just that she was fed a picky eater, and I don't know when I fell in love with the little dried fish...... Hiss! ”

"Goo~Goo!"

As if to understand the meaning of the ridicule in Wren's words, Shauna the owl lowered her head and tore a hair from Wren's head to vent her small dissatisfaction.

"Okay, okay, this time it's me who is wrong, next time it will be."

Seizing the opportunity, Wren reached out and slammed the owl's head before making a satisfied assurance.

Well, next time definitely.

"So smart?"

Looking at the interaction between one person and one bird, Nan Zhuo only felt that his more than 40 years had been in vain.

"She was cultivated by my friend as a natural companion, and her intelligence is much higher than that of ordinary beasts, and she is about to reach the standard of natural awakening."

Wren explained with a smile.

Normal animals have an intelligence of 2 to 4 points, and the smarter domestic animals have a higher intelligence, reaching 5 to 7 points, while Shauna's intelligence is even higher than them, reaching 8 points.

If an animal wants to awaken naturally, it must have an intelligence of 9 in order to gain a class level.

The average intelligence of the average person without education is only 10 to 11 points, and the average intelligence of the modern person with higher education is 12 to 13 points.

And if you want to work in a high-level legal class such as archmage, the minimum initial intelligence requirement is 15 points.

This is also the reason why there are so few professionals in the high-level legal system.

Those who can get a high-level legal profession must be a top-level figure from the beginning, otherwise they can't understand the complicated and obscure high-ring spell model at all.

Turning his gaze to the owl on his shoulder, Wren asked:

"Shauna, if you're here, then she won't be far from here, right?"

Before the owl could reply, a female voice with a hint of anxiety came from the other side of the hill.

"Shauna, did you find any trace of Wren?"

"Goo-goo!"

Hearing the call of its master, the owl flapped its wings and pointed out the direction for its master with its small body.

After a few breaths, a young girl with an anxious face carried a long sword at her waist and a long bow on her back, through the dense thorns and trees, led by the owl Shauna, to the hills.

She was only a head shorter than Wren, and her long, pale blonde hair was tucked back with a headband that reflected in the early morning sun.

The business atmosphere of the Bauhinia Business Alliance is extremely heavy, and under the pro-business policy, Bauhinia's economic development ranks first among the four countries.

But even as the social climate gradually opens up with the progress of commerce, old towns such as Van Lynn are still not ready.

This point is vividly reflected in the clothes of the girl in front of you.

The girl was dressed in a very simple way, a simple crude leather armor, only inlaid with iron plates in the vital parts for protection, and a pair of over-the-knee deerskin boots that were sharpened to make the girl look taller.

If it is a female ranger in those big cities, the equipment on her body can be much more luxurious and fashionable than the girl in front of her, at least there will be a shirt underneath.

In Fanlin Town, there is obviously no such atmosphere, let alone the girl who also has no such financial resources.

But even so, the girl's beautiful face and cold temperament were not damaged in the slightest because of the simplicity of the equipment.

It's just that when the girl looked at Rennes not far away, that cold temperament was instantly replaced by surprise and guilt.

"Wren, you...... That's great! ”

For a while, the girl who was in a mood was even a little incoherent.

"Angelica, how could something happen to me."

Wren smiled and comforted the girl, then turned his head to the dwarf beside him and introduced:

"This is Angelica, my Ranger friend and Shauna's master."

"Oh~~"

The dwarf glanced at Wren and said with a wicked smile:

"Isn't that a big hug for someone?"

Wren glared angrily at the dwarf, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and introduced him to Angelica.

"My lord forbid, let me escape from the Red Label Gang. Angelica, this is my companion I met on the way, named Nanzhuo. ”

There are some things that it is better not to let her know for the time being.

She is a loner, but Angelica is different, and she also needs to take care of the bear children in the town's orphanage.

"Hello, beautiful young lady, I was rescued from the Red Label Gang by Wren."

The dwarf saluted the maiden, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, the Red Label Gang didn't hurt your sweetheart, but suffered a big loss at his hands."

"Mr. Dwarf, what are you talking about! Wren, Wren is not ......"

Miss Ranger couldn't say those three words anyway, so she had to stomp her feet and hang her head in shame and urgency.

When Miss Ranger raised her eyes and secretly glanced at the paladin opposite, she found that Wren was looking at her as if she had a feeling, and she hurriedly lowered her head and changed the topic stiffly.

"Wren, I'm sorry," Angelica's tone carried a hint of guilt and crying, "If I hadn't stopped you at the time, you wouldn't have suffered such a great sin." ”

Speaking of this, Angelica only felt panicked in her heart.

At that time, after learning the news, Wren rushed back to the town in a hurry, preparing to trouble the Red Label Gang and his uncle, not caring that his paladin ability was partially sealed.

After learning from the children in the orphanage that Wren's family property was being stolen by his own uncle, he knew that something was going to happen, so he asked Shauna to stay at the place where Wren had to return to the town.

In the end, with Shauna's help, she still stopped Wren outside the town, and she hoped that the paladin would calm down and find a way to solve the problem, instead of rushing over so recklessly.

However, Wren, who was angry at the time, didn't listen to her words at all, shook himself off, rushed into the old mansion, and then there was no news.

She knew that things were going to be bad, but because of the strength of both sides and the scruples of the gang who came to the orphanage, they were helpless against the Red Label Gang.

It wasn't until the next morning that she learned that Wren had been carried out of town and thrown into the wilderness, so she hurried to find it, but she couldn't find Wren's "body" at all.

Little did she know that at that time, the "Wren" had been taken over by the souls that had crossed over, and was heading towards the Vandalin Pit.

The anxious ranger searched the field for a whole day, and with the help of his animal companions, he finally found the missing paladin.

In Angelica's eyes, she caused all this.

If she had been more resolute at the time, persuaded Wren not to be so reckless, she would not have come to this point at all.

Miss Ranger is so kind, and habitually takes the recklessness and fault of others on her own head.
