Chapter 1: The Freshly Baked Village Chief

Next Chapter

Davy's face was full of joy, and he lowered his left hand, which was holding the hunting bow, and then quickly walked through the forest with his vigorous skills, and in the blink of an eye he came to his prey: a deer that had fallen to the ground with several arrows in its body.

Squatting down and placing the hunting bow to the side, he drew his dagger to complete the fatal blow to the prey that had not yet been killed, and then carried the venison that was still hot to the back frame with very rough workmanship, and the whole process was very skillful in one go.

"Hey!"

After taking a breath and getting up hard, David, who had put on his back, struggled to stand up straight, and the weight on the back frame behind him was much heavier than he expected.

"My strength has deteriorated a lot, and I hope to recover soon."

It didn't take long to get dozens of catties of venison after entering the forest, David was very satisfied with today's harvest, and if his luck had been so good, he should be able to return to normal soon.

Armed with a hunting bow and a quiver full of arrows, David walked in the direction of his 'home' outside the forest......

Davy, who was originally a very ordinary office worker on earth, came to this world somehow after his untimely death.

According to his observations, it was a fantasy world similar to the European Middle Ages.

The strict division of the class system also made him very uncomfortable, because he was only a commoner in his life!

After being raised by an old hunter Attis until he was sixteen years old, the unwilling Davy became a pioneer - in order to increase the territory of the Kingdom of Tiran, the commoners were encouraged to become pioneers to develop the lands that were not inhabited by humans.

Pioneers who successfully develop and occupy new lands can break away from commoners and become knights or even noble lords.

However, the territory was not an easy task, and after months of trekking to choose a place to live and more than a year and a half of reclamation, David's team was unable to produce qualified farmland.

Coupled with the harsh weather, the attacks of wild beasts, the lack of food and medicine, and the lack of rewards for hard work, some people died or gave up, and when the next winter passed, David was the only one left.

He naturally took over the development certificate and became the head of this newly built village.

But after a tough second winter, David began to think about leaving.

"This deer should be able to recover me and make some jerky...... It would be nice if you could find some wild vegetables. ”

Carrying the main food for the rest of the day, David slowly walked back to the makeshift village with only four large wooden houses.

One of the four cabins was a warehouse, a blacksmith's workshop and a kitchen for the entire team, and David carried the venison into the cabin and placed it on a shabby-looking table, where he began to do all sorts of things: skinning, gutting, cutting and washing the meat, and when he was done with it, he stewed some broth for himself—he had no shortage of spices at hand, and the pioneer team set out with enough salt, sugar, and spices, which were quite a few left.

Sitting on a simple wooden bench outside the hut, drinking broth from a wooden bowl, David looked at the vast river to the west and pondered his future: Is it to another pioneer village? Or simply go back to Iron Tree Castle?

Go back to Iron Tree Fort and be an ordinary hunter honestly? It's always a little unwilling. Just as he was thinking about these things, a figure vaguely appeared not far ahead.

The figure was vague and vague, and even in broad daylight, David couldn't see the other party's appearance clearly.

"What's going on? What the hell? ”

The translucent figure reminded David of ghosts, undead, Nie Xiaoqian and the like, and just as he put down the wooden bowl to get the bow and arrow in his hand, wanting to give himself courage, the figure gradually became clear, revealing its 'true appearance'.

"This look ......"

Dirty camisoles, cargo pants and leather boots, ponytails, and dirty muddy water can't hide the high appearance, plus the staggering appearance of covering the waist......

In this way, if you combine the wind and rain, the cold wind and the rain flowing down the mountain wall, David should suspect that he has crossed again—he is obviously the famous Laura.

Laura Crawford, the absolute protagonist of the Tomb Raider series. Although it is a virtual character, it is a world-famous existence.

In the setting, Laura has a good family background and became an archaeologist after graduating from college, but none of the ruins she has archaeological can be preserved intact, so she is also known as the destroyer of ancient tombs, where to go, the god of demolition and so on.

And Lara has several different characters, from the 1st to 8th generation of the game, the new trilogy from the 9th generation, the two old movie versions, and the new movie version.

This Lara in front of her is obviously from the first part of the new trilogy of the game version.

In this work, Laura is just a rookie who has just graduated from college and is really involved in archaeological activities for the first time.

In this seemingly ordinary archaeological activity, he was shipwrecked and stranded on the island, and a series of strange things happened. The story of Laura, who helps her partner escape successfully after going through various hardships and gradually grows up.

The one in front of David should be Laura not long after the beginning of the story.

Standing up, David watched as he slowly walked into the village, looking at Laura, who also looked puzzled, ready to try a conversation - after all these years, he didn't know how many words of English he could remember.

While he was struggling with how many words of English he could remember, Laura on the other side had noticed him and stopped a few meters away from David.

Now the two of them are not far away, and there is plenty of light in broad daylight, and David in this life has no myopia, astigmatism or anything, he can clearly see the surprise, confusion and vigilance on Laura's face.

"Hello." David habitually used the world's human lingua franca: "Need help?" ”

"Hello!" Laura couldn't understand what the young man on the other side was saying. However, after taking a closer look, he felt that this young man, who looked very righteous, should have no ill will towards him, so he waved his hand and greeted David: "I need some help." ”

This listening question is not difficult, and he can understand it, but how to answer it makes him scratch his head a little.

Putting his bow and arrow aside, David walked up to Laura.

After seeing Davy's action of laying down his weapon, and making sure that the man had no ill will towards him, Laura immediately said a lot of things. This gave David a headache, and he could only vaguely understand a few words, and finally had to stretch out his finger and point to the wound that Laura was holding, interrupting the other party's words.

In the story, Laura fell into the sea during a shipwreck, and although she tried her best to swim to the shore, she was knocked unconscious. When he woke up, he was hung upside down in a cave.

Although Laura escaped with her wits and courage, she was also injured, and the breakthrough injury on her lower back was the most serious.

It's hard to imagine that Laura, a young girl who doesn't look very strong, can carry such an injury up a snowy mountain and climb the grass, and by the way, destroy the entire Brotherhood of the Sun, Queen Himiko, the big boss with mysterious powers, and her large number of storm guards.

Considering that the metal that was stuck in the waist at the time was covered in rust, and Laura's next performance...... Even the empty-handed Laura has definitely more than 5 combat power.

At this time, Laura, who was amazingly powerful, was in a very weak state, following the direction of David's finger, looking down at her waist, blood kept oozing from her fingers, she knew that now was not the time to talk that nonsense, and she also understood that the other party did not understand English.

However, simple words should be understood, right? Tried to say, "I need help!" Medicine! ”

Laura watched as the young man in front of her took something out of the bag on her waist: a small bag, and a roll of cloth that looked like bandages.

When the other party opened the packet, Laura saw that it contained a powder, which seemed to be some kind of medicinal powder - it seemed that her attempt had been successful.

Taking out the powder and homemade bandages that he always carried with him, David made a few more movements to Laura: first pointed to his eyes, then pointed to Laura's wounds, and finally raised the powder and bandages in his hands.

Laura understood what the other party meant, hesitated for a few seconds and nodded, then lifted the vest a little to reveal the injured position.

Her movements tugged at the wound, and the sudden pain caused Laura to snort.

David looked at Laura's waist, which was covered with blood, and he couldn't see his original skin color, and he couldn't directly medicate in this state.

Handing Laura the powder and bandage in his hand, David pointed to the wooden chair next to the wooden house and made a 'wait' gesture.

It was a very simple gesture, Laura had no difficulty in understanding, and sat on the wooden chair with the medicine powder and bandages, Laura watched David turn around and enter the wooden house, and soon walked out with a basin of water, and understood what the other party meant.

Sitting obediently on the wooden chair, Laura looked at the enthusiastic young man in front of her who was wiping her waist and abdomen with a wet cloth, and suddenly felt weird...... She should have cleaned herself, but it seemed a little inappropriate to speak again, and she didn't think the other party could understand her words.

David carefully wiped Laura's wounds, and as he moved, the mud and blood were wiped away, revealing Laura's snow-white waist and abdomen with muscular lines.

Feeling the slippery and delicate touch from his fingers, David, who had not tasted meat for more than ten years, felt a heat rising in his body.

"Ahem!"

Gathering his mind, he threw aside the blood-stained cloth towel, then picked up the medicine powder and bandages from Laura's hand, and neatly bandaged Laura's wound - in the past two years, his bandaging technique has improved a lot.

When he had done that, he stood up and nodded at Laura.

At this time, Laura also stood up, checked the bandage on her lower waist and abdomen, raised her head, and thanked David very sincerely: "Thank you very much for your help." ”

"You're welcome."

As soon as the words came out, the two of them were stunned.

Because David no longer spoke the language that Laura hadn't heard, but English that she knew so well, or the British English she knew best.
