Bionic teardrops are not complete life in the strict sense of the word, they can only be called life-like.

In addition, the body composition is special, so it can be put into the equipment slot.

Leon wanted to try to tame it and work for himself.

Despite its worrying IQ and mediocre strength (60% damage), it should be more than enough to be a monster-attracting meat shield with its ability to imitate and its rough skin and thick flesh (3.6 times its HP).

You must first attack a follower with a taunt.

Without the bionic teardrops blocking the way, Leon and Melina made their way through the temple to a long, wide straight road.

Looking northeast from this position, you can see the Blood Dynasty on the top of the mountain.

"You're here for it?" Melina asked.

Li Ang, who was pondering how to get over, came back to his senses: "One of them." ”

Melina closed her eyes and was silent for a moment, then said, "I sensed the aura of the magic barrier, and it was difficult to get close by normal means. ”

Li Ang was not surprised, with the character of a Monge chicken thief, how could he let people casually approach his lair.

"Then it's a different way."

Melina was inexplicably a little frustrated when she saw him swearing: "You don't seem to need anyone's help, because you always have a way." ”

"Manpower is exhausted, beyond the reach of power." Leon retracted his distant gaze and looked at her, "Just like just now, if it wasn't for your reminder, I would have crashed headlong into the magic barrier stupidly." ”

Melina's eyes fluttered, and she lowered her eyebrows and smiled: "You're not stupid at all. ”

"But it's not very smart." After Leon finished speaking, he left the straight through the gap next to him and stepped onto a woodland.

It's called the Ancestral Forest, and it's home to a race that is completely different from the Knox:

The people of the ancestral spirits.

They were nature-loving and peace-loving, wore rough fur and rags, rejected all metalwork, and wore antlers on the heads of female sacrificers and ox horns for male warriors.

They can be roughly understood as druids who can't transfigurate.

The Ancestral Spirits were once allies with the Knox and helped build another Eternal City: Nox Stella.

Later, Nock Stella was overrun by the Crimson Corruption, and one of the ancestral spirits was forced to migrate to Norronn.

They often use melodious and melodious long tunes to praise the ancestral spirits of their faith.

So before I could see them, I heard their voices.

Melina listened, she loved the feeling of life that calmed the restless mind.

"It's much better than some people sing."

Li Ang was unconvinced: "You didn't say that when you first accepted my flowers. ”

"The little yellow flower of the story." Melina couldn't help but snort softly: "Although I don't want to admit it, this one is not bad." ”

The two were joking when an uninteresting voice sounded above their heads.

"Stop, one step further, I'm going to release the arrow!"

Leon looked up at the rock next to him, and on it stood a gray-skinned ancestral warrior wearing horns.

He wore fur shoulders, exposed two thick arms, and took his bow and arrows at Leon, who looked more threatening.

Although the people of the ancestral spirits love peace, they still maintain due vigilance against sudden intruders.

Especially the only intruder for hundreds of years.

Leon smiled kindly, "Don't be impatient, my friend I have never met, my partner and I are a foot merchant from the ground, to see if there is any business to be done here." ”

Melina kicked him, meaning what nonsense you were talking about.

After hearing this, the Ancestral Spirit Warrior subconsciously put down the bow and arrow in his hand, but immediately raised it again: "How do I know if your words are true or false?" ”

Leon pulled the small log standing half a meter away in front of him.

"She can prove it."

Melina knew that now was not the time to be angry with him, and reluctantly said, "Yes." ”

"Business on the ground is too difficult to do, and it just so happened that the meteorite smashed the way to the underground, so we came to try our luck."

Li Ang answered: "Where there is money, there is us." ”

The two of them sang and sang in harmony to frighten the ancestral spirit warrior, and after hesitating for a moment, he thought of a good solution: "You guys wait here, I'll go and inform the priest to deal with it!" ”

"If you dare to stir up, the King of the Ancestral Spirit will punish you!"

With that, the sturdy figure disappeared behind the rock.

Melina was a little surprised: "It's so easy to believe it?" ”

Li Ang said as a matter of course: "Living in such a closed place, it is normal for the people to be simple. And they are a race that believes in nature, and they rarely lie, and over time they think that people all over the world are like them. ”

Melina looked at him with a hint of disgust.

"It's useless to look at me." Leon affectionately put his arm around her shoulder: "You are also an accomplice, my dear partner. ”

Melina pushed the man away with a cold expression.

She has always rejected anyone from having physical contact with her in any form.

Li Ang didn't care, he still looked like he was enjoying himself.

After waiting for a while, the ancestral spirit warrior returned, and when he saw that the two of them had not moved, he felt very satisfied, so he even spoke a lot better: "Come on, Lord Priest is waiting for you." ”

Follow the warrior to a rock-made altar with a group of small animals, sitting or lying, surrounding the ancestral priest in the middle.

The priest was a woman, with large hands and feet, who looked to be more muscular than a warrior, wearing a glittering antler ribbon and holding the skull of an unknown creature in her arms, and gently spreading the way of the ancestral spirits to the animals around her.

Animals have the most sensitive senses, and when they perceive an outsider approaching, they immediately flee in all directions.

The priest did not stop them, watching them leave, and only then slowly turned his attention to the two men.

"Explain your purpose, outsider."

Li Ang pretended to stroke his chest and bowed: "Honorable priest, we are a passing merchant traveler, and by the way, we will do some small business of bartering. ”

Melina stood beside him without saying a word, silently serving as her own bodyman.

The priest is not as easy to deceive as a warrior, and he does not think that Leon is telling the truth, but if she does not show hostility, she does not need to tear her face, which is not good for anyone.

"I guess you've seen it, our tribe isn't rich, I don't know what you want to change?"

Li Ang always maintained a proper smile: "Of course, it is a specialty of the precious land, such as the ornaments on the heads of you and your people." ”

As a result, before the priest could speak, the warrior was in a hurry, the headdress was a symbol of their ancestral spirit clan, how could it be exchanged as a commodity

"No way, we won't agree! Get out of here, you're not welcome here! ”

Leon turned a blind eye and looked at the person who could really make a decision.

The priest began by saying, "Unique requirements." After a pause, he continued, "No, but you have to come up with something of value." ”

Although the horned headdress is a symbol of the ancestral spirits, it is not that important.

Over the years, it has been lost and damaged for various reasons, and they don't feel sorry for it.

What's more, now there are people who exchange things for things.

"I promise to keep you satisfied." Leon blew the whistle on his finger and summoned Torret.

There is a storage bag on horseback, which contains some relatively unimportant items.

The priest looked at Leon who was taking something from Torret, and a hint of surprise flashed across his face, ordinary people can't get the approval of the spirit horse.

And Torret's closeness to Melina was also seen by her.

This girl is no less simple.

The priest was glad that he had always been kind to the two of them, and that he was not as impulsive as his warriors, and that their small tribe could not withstand the toss.

On the other hand, Leon has already prepared his 'sincerity'.

Mainly all kinds of dried fruits, plant seeds, as well as precious dragon skin, dragon flesh, dragon heart.

Ever since he had Torret, a greedy horse, he had developed the habit of collecting fruits and seeds, all of which were above-ground species, and should be rare underground.

As for the dragon's mess, it comes from a five-day raid.

There are a lot of wyverns in the Galid region, and the Honorable Rots slaughtered a few of them together, and then gave some of the loot to Leon.

"These things. Is it valuable? ”

The Ancestral Spirit Priest looked at the dragon heart with barbs and scales on its surface, and his eyes were glowing: "Of course!" ”

Then she took off the antler headdress on her head with her own hands: "Give me the dragon's heart, it's yours!" ”

Li Ang raised his chin at Melina, who was next to him, and did not speak.

The priest instantly comprehended and instructed his soldiers: "Go and get a light-horned headband again, and ask for the brightest one!" Call the other clansmen by the way and see if they have anything they want to exchange with this kind merchant. ”

While she waited, she pointed to the lumpy dragon skin.

"I want the skin too, and I will exchange this with you."

As he spoke, the priest took out a crooked animal horn, the tip of which was blue-purple, with several petaled buds, like a bamboo shoot that had just broken through the ground.

"Corner of Reason, it can help you resist the whispers of some terrifying beings."

When Leon heard this, this effect was simply tailor-made for Malenia, and he could give it to her as a gift, after all, she had given her winged hand sword amulet.

The priest thought he was hesitating, gritted his teeth, and took out another thing.

It is still an animal horn with a fork like a tree branch at the top, and it is very colorful.

"A colorful necklace, it has the same effect as the previous one, and it also makes you stronger and less sick."

Li Ang thought to himself what else to consider here, and nodded directly in agreement.

Dragon heart + dragon skin for two talismans + two headdresses, both sides feel that they have no loss.

It didn't take long for the Ancestral Spirit Warrior to return with a large group of clansmen.

Leon observed that there were only two priests in the entire tribe, that is, women, and the rest were all male warriors, and the reproduction situation was worrying.

It's a pity he can't help much.

I had to concentrate on the promising work of bartering.

In less than half an hour, all the things taken out were replaced, and several ancestral spirit warriors joined forces to exchange the horns on their heads for dragon meat, and the dried fruits and seeds were also snatched up, turning into unique plants underground.

Torrett was so happy that he was blessed again.

When Li Ang packed up his things and was about to leave, some of the Ancestral Spirit People who hadn't changed their things were reluctant to give up, and asked him when he would come back next time.

"Next time, remember to keep something good for me!"

The people of the ancestral spirits were full of promises.

It's just that they didn't wait for Leon's luck again in the end, but waited for the fading ones who flocked to it, but this is all for later.

Leaving the Ancestral Spirit Altar, the two explored westward.

On the way, Leon stopped Melina, who was leading Torrett in front.

"What?"

Leon took off her hood and replaced it with a deer antler headdress that glowed with a little blue light, and then put another one on his head.

Touching his chin and admiring it for a while, he nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, let's go!" ”

Looking at the man wearing the same antlers as herself, Melina's face was slightly hot, and she said duplicitously: "Sick." ”

"It takes half a day's work to get two useless headdresses, you are simply hopeless!"

Li Ang laughed twice and continued to hurry leisurely.

Torret came to join in the fun, rubbing his head against his arm, meaning to give me the whole one!

Li Ang spread his hands: "No, do you want to have horns?" ”

Torret suddenly lost interest, and the horns it had on its own.

So he decisively chose to abandon his master and turned his head to curry favor with Melina, hoping that she would help him take a few fruits from his backpack to eat.

Unexpectedly, Melina, who took care of it in every way in the past, didn't know what was wrong today, and kept bowing her head and walking forward silently, ignoring it at all.

A depressed Torret flicked his tail and followed in despair.

"What do you think, look at the road!" Leon grabbed the small log that almost fell off the cliff in the air.

Melina, who looked up, realized that there was no road ahead, and in its place was a deep pit, and in the dim pit was a pile of gray-black towering buildings.

"The Night Domain, the dwelling of the Knox for their future king." Leon stood side by side with her.

Melina rubbed her eyebrows: "Thank you for your explanation, but can you let go of my hand first." ”

"No way!" Li Ang said righteously: "I'm afraid that you will fall." ”

Melina took two steps back: "Not now. ”

"I'm afraid I'm going to fall." Leon took a half-step forward and stood on the edge of the cliff.

Melina chuckled, "The same trick won't work the second time." ”

She's talking about the time when Selia hid in the cave.

"Oh, really?" Leon let go of her hand, turned and jumped off.

Melina's face changed instantly, and she hurriedly stepped forward to check.

As a result, I saw Li Ang standing on the eaves of the cliff only a few meters away, looking at her with a smile.

"Come down, I'll catch you."

Melina breathed a sigh of relief and cursed viciously, "Why didn't I throw you to death!" ”

Torret, behind her, leaned forward, looking eager to jump.

Hop Hop or something, it likes it the most.

"Be virtuous with your master!" Melina scolded it angrily.

Torrett snorted in dismay, then took his head to the top.

Melina felt a sudden thrust behind her, causing her body to fall forward uncontrollably.

Leon was quick and quickly caught the falling log.

Nephrite was in his arms, and he couldn't help but praise: "Well done, my good horse, I'll give you more food later!" ”

Torrett shook his head, in a gesture of subtlety.

"Put me down." Melina's tone was tinged with coldness.

Li Ang was not afraid at all: "The eaves are very slippery, so it's safer to hold on." ”

He really didn't lie, because the environment was humid, which caused a lot of water vapor and moss on the eaves, and the slightest carelessness could fall down.

"Put me down." Melina repeated, "I'm going back. ”

"Look at you, anxious." Li Ang slowly put her down: "Don't blame me for falling later." ”

"Don't blame anyone." Melina straightened the cloak behind her to prevent stepping on it: "You said you would catch me." ”

Leon was speechless.

Then, Torret jumped down, and the eaves, which had been quite spacious, immediately became crowded.

The distance between Leon and Melina was forced to close again.

Smelling the fragrant fragrance wafting from the little wood, he pretended to criticize: "Eat less in the future, and see how fat you have become!" ”

Torrett looked at his master aggrievedly, it was a spirit body, and no matter how much it ate, it would not get fat.

"Forget it, you better go back and wait for a while." Li Ang crossed the river and demolished the bridge, took the spirit horse back to the whistle, and then took the hand of the girl beside him very naturally: "Sure enough, it's much more spacious, let's go." ”

Melina looked at him indifferently and raised her gripping hand.

Li Ang didn't feel embarrassed at all, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry, I'm used to it." ”

"You've held the hands of a lot of girls?" Melina was keenly grasping the point, and the light from the antler headband shone brighter and brighter, reflecting the stars overhead.

Suddenly, Leon seemed to see a death omen.

I don't have to add anything to it today, but this chapter has a lot more words
