Chapter 51: Rebecca's Lesson
[Strong is not necessarily good, weak can also be good, kindness does not mean that everyone accepts, if you don't believe it, you can ask the mad dog! - 7th day of Talu in the 147th year of the 4th era of Guangming]
There is also a large grassland as a buffer zone between the hunting forest and the thorn bush, the view of the grassland is very open, the air is clear with the fragrance of grass and earth, there is a sense of comfort back to the countryside, the small hillside in the distance is undulating, occasionally one or two trees are not tall, the grassland is just right, like a beautiful pattern embroidered on a green carpet.
In an open meadow near the edge of the forest, we chose a flat place to free the thirteen large scorpions and let them roam freely.
During this time, the big scorpions were indeed very hard, carrying everyone along the way, without a trace of dissatisfaction, and at night they also took turns to keep vigil for us, which was really hard.
At first, the thirteen climbing giant scorpions were reluctant to do their work, but when I took out a small bottle of eternal elixir and fed it to them, they became very positive, not only did they all rise to the holy level, but they all became very obedient.
However, as a reward, I still give them one or two corpse moving fire ants as rations every time they rest, which seems to be their favorite food, and they never dislike it, and they eat it with relish.
This time was no exception, before I took out the corpse moving fire ants, thirteen large scorpions habitually gathered around me in anticipation, and the hara in their mouths dripped on me.
I laughed and scolded: "You guys are foodies like big cats, why are you in such a hurry?" ”
This time, in addition to taking out the three corpse moving fire ants, I also added some of the corpses of the gods that I hadn't eaten after moving the corpses.
As soon as they took it out, the guys pounced on them like hungry wolves.
"Don't rob, don't rob! All of them are elegant, you can divide them - you are not allowed to rob them, and I will confiscate them if you are disobedient! ”
I arranged the thirteen large scorpions according to their age, from the eldest to the youngest thirteen, and marked them, and at the same time gave them names; The purpose of this is to make it easy for us to distinguish between them, otherwise the big scorpions all look similar in our eyes, and it is really difficult to distinguish them.
After the well-fed scorpions disbanded, they ran around the grassland, and I couldn't even see their shadows in the blink of an eye.
The wind of the grassland is very refreshing, with the autumn mood blowing, the turquoise grass waves wave after wave to the distance, just like waves of turquoise waves, there is no fun, we eat snacks while enjoying the beautiful scenery in front of us.
The sun was gradually hiding in the grass, and the sky was beginning to darken; Lighting a bonfire, setting up a stove, a quiet environment, even the slightest sound is extraordinarily clear, the monster meat across the fire is roasted by the flames dripping grease, falling on the wood to make a "sizzling" sound, and the chowder soup stewed in the pot also begins to make a "gurgling" bubbling sound.
Everyone was quietly listening to the sounds of the grassland and the forest, and they were all meditating, even Ling and the big cat, and a few of their magical beasts were also meditating; This is my request, and it is also a habit that everyone has developed in the past six months, as long as the rest time is longer, they will seize the time to cultivate.
This happens when I successfully develop a new drug.
After I repeatedly quenched and purified the semi-liquid body of Etoglis, I separated a variety of substances, one of which is an important substance that can not only stimulate the potential of the human body and medicinal properties, but also promote the absorption of energy.
This potion can remove impurities from the living body, make the body more pure, so that the body and soul can also be improved in both directions, but it needs to actively guide the effect of the medicine; Theoretically, this potion allows the person to take it, through meditation, to guide absorption, so as to cross the shackles of the race and enter unprecedented heights.
As for why it was meditation, it was because of Rebecca's accident.
Rebecca was the first to take this potion, and in order to break the flaws of the human race, she did not hesitate to drink the potion when I asked if she would like to try it, and the huge and domineering properties of the medicine made her whole body like red-hot steel; Rebecca, who was smart at the time, sat down and meditated on the spot as soon as she realized that she was in a bad situation, which was her habitual choice as a magician, and miraculously saved her life by mistake; The huge energy contained in the Life Essence Elixir was channeled by her throughout her body, and finally entered the spiritual space, instantly solving the domineering medicinal effect of the Life Essence Elixir.
Later, according to her description, while meditating to solve the crisis, she also successfully broke the racial restrictions of the human race and successfully became a god; Not only has the physical body become extremely strong, but the spiritual space has also been expanded to infinity, and the magic power is comparable to the boundless ocean, and it has begun to rapidly transform into divine power, along with the incomplete absorption of the eternal spiritual liquid and the divine power of the creation of the divine stone in the residual body before, she has also quickly absorbed it.
Today's Rebecca is no longer the weak magician she used to be, but should be called a wizard of divine power; Now, even a swordsman doesn't have the physical strength and reaction speed of hers.
Because of Rebecca's precedent, everyone began to be enthusiastic about meditation, and the results were really good.
Originally, they all thought that the eternal spiritual liquid and the creation divine stone would be digested by themselves after taking it, but after taking the life essence potion, they entered meditation only to find that they were only digesting the fur of the two divine objects, and a large amount of divine power was still hoarded everywhere in the body, and it was dissipating little by little as time passed.
Watching the crowd meditate, I often can't help but join the meditation team, but unfortunately I didn't show up at all in the situation they said.
Thinking about myself, I soaked in the river of gods and drank unscrupulously, and I didn't dare to say that the eternal spiritual liquid I drank was ten thousand liters, and I couldn't run away with thousands of liters, and even the skill space and spiritual space were filled with eternal spiritual liquid by me; There is also the Creation Divine Stone, which I swallowed with the Eternal Spiritual Liquid at that time, and although the number is not specific, it is definitely quite a lot; But I couldn't find any of the residual divine power problems they were talking about.
Seeing them meditating neatly one by one, I could only sigh in my heart: alas! People are more popular than people - I'm so hungry - it's annoying!
Depressed, I could only eat barbecue and drink stew alone, and my eyes involuntarily drifted to them again, which made me envious and could only shake my head and be depressed again.
Suddenly, the smell of blood wafted through the surrounding air.
"There's something!" This struck me.
This reaction is because since the big scorpion joined the team, we haven't set up enchantments and traps when we camp and rest, for fear of accidentally injuring them, and it is also because the big scorpion family is indeed very good at guarding and watching, so we will be so relieved to cancel these precautions.
"Hahaha-I didn't expect to meet a big fat sheep in the depths of this big hunting forest!"
A burly man with a scar swaggered out of the forest carrying a large sword disproportionate to his height, and the smell of blood and beastly fury emanated from his body, which I could clearly feel from afar.
With his arrogant laughter, a group of his men quickly surrounded us.
At this time, I saw a tall man in the crowd, wearing a sleeveless shirt, with a muscular face full of meat, facing the scar man and saying happily: "Boss, there are several beautiful women here, and the brothers have meat to eat at night - hahaha!" ”
"Hahaha - brothers, do you hear that? If you have meat to eat at night, you can loosen the waistband of your pants, so why don't you take it off quickly! Hahaha-" The scar man stood outside the circle with a big sword on his shoulder, not intending to make a move, but directing his subordinates to do it.
Rebecca had slowly gotten up, glanced at the robbers around her out of the corner of her eye, and asked me, "My lord, do you want to stay?" ”
I took a sip of the stew and said impatiently, "Is it a waste of food to keep?" ”
"Understood!" Rebecca replied and shouted, "My lord said, keep you to waste food!" If you don't want to die, apologize to us immediately......"
"Rebecca, are you idle?" I was a little upset about Rebecca's nonsense and spoke up.
"I'm sorry, sir!" Although Rebecca apologized, her expression still seemed a little unwilling, and she glanced around at the robbers, and hesitated for a moment before she had the intention of making a move.
"Hmph, hum - the young man is still quite crazy, wait until you kneel on the ground and beg for mercy to see if you can still be crazy! Brothers, the men are killed, all the women are captured alive, and the night is so happy! "While Rebecca was talking to me, Scar Man gave a cold snort and ordered in a cold tone.
"The boss has spoken, don't hurry up, kill-"
After Rebecca finished talking to me, she was about to make a move, but someone had already taken a step ahead of her.
Lily's dark magic had been activated, and she had already struck it when the bandits who surrounded us were shouting to kill; The robbers found themselves suddenly unable to move, and they all panicked.
"Boss—I—we can't move—" one by one the robbers began to shout.
Goki had also gotten up and shot an arrow at the scarred man.
"Bell!"
Gogi's arrow is blocked by the opponent with a large sword.
The big cat's thunder and lightning technique took the opportunity to fall, and the big sword in the scar man's hand, which was supposed to save his life, became his life-saving talisman at this time; Looking at the small thunderbolt slash from the big cat towards the big sword, the scar man was still contemptuously trying to laugh, and he didn't even want to dodge, but when the big cat's thunderbolt touched his big sword, he could no longer dodge, and was instantly crispy and black smoke billowing from the inside and out of the big cat's thunderbolt technique, standing straight and still, completely out of breath.
The robbers, who were unaware and immobile, were still shouting:
"Boss, save us, we can't move!"
At this moment the scorpions, when they heard the commotion, suddenly appeared out of nowhere, and rushed towards our camp, and in less than two minutes they came to us, and took all the immobile robbers as a snack.
This battle, which does not count as a battle, has less than five minutes at the beginning and end.
Rebecca said, "My lord, this is the Scarlet Mercenary Regiment, and the Scar Man just now is their deputy leader. ”
"And then? Do we want to kowtow to the other party's head and admit our mistakes? Ask him to spare us? I looked at Rebecca disgruntled.
"My lord, that's not what Rebecca meant, this scarlet mercenary group has a great influence on hunting in the Great Forest, and even the empire has to let them give them three points!" Rebecca said in a worried tone.
"So that's why you didn't dare to do it just now?" I was a little angry, and my tone became cold: "Rebecca, are you still unable to position yourself?" Although you are from the Empire of Light, it does not mean that we also have to consider the problem from the perspective of the Empire of Light, if in the next trip, you still think that the Empire of Light is your motherland, and we people have to walk with our heads down, then please go back to the Empire of Light immediately, we don't need such companions. ”
"Great, my lord, Rebecca knows that she is wrong, please don't drive me away!" Rebecca said tremblingly.
"Don't dare, don't dare! You are the noble princess of the Empire of Light, a good princess who is considerate and patriotic, and admired by all the people, how dare we drive you! It should be us leaving, and free people like us are not qualified to travel with the nobles. "I'm very disappointed with Rebecca's approach and attitude this time.
"Woo - sir, Rebecca really knows that she is wrong, she really knows that she is wrong, please don't say that—Rebecca has never thought of it that way—Rebecca doesn't dare, never again—Rebecca swears to the Supreme God: Rebecca is no longer a member of the Empire of Light in this life, but a servant of Lord Tole; My lord - can you please forgive me? Please! ”
Looking at Rebecca on her knees and crying, I actually felt very uncomfortable, but I knew that if I didn't let her recognize herself at once, it would be a big trouble for her or for the Behemoth Manor in the future. I hate trouble, and it annoys me.
I picked up Rebecca with a blank face and said, "Get up, don't take an example!" ”
The expressions on the faces of the others varied, some were equally dissatisfied, some were equally sympathetic, and some were secretly relieved.
After such a fuss, no one had the heart to continue meditating, and the atmosphere became depressing.
I realized that this situation could not be sustained, otherwise Rebecca would not be able to hold her head up in the future, and even become her demon.
"Uh-huh - Rebecca's incident today is also a wake-up call for you, not only Rebecca, but also the rest of you, please position yourself, don't think that Rebecca's behavior today is terrible;
I can tell you clearly that although I am disappointed in her behavior today, but at the same time I am proud of her, she knows how to repay grievances with virtue, even if she abandons her country, she still has an attitude of awe and love for the people, which shows that she is broad-minded, she is a real princess of the empire, even if the other party is an enemy, she still does not give up persuading the enemy to be kind and give opportunities;
My conscience says that I can't do it myself, so at this point I am proud of her; How many of you can do this? ”
"Still, Rebecca, I have to remind you again. No matter how high your status is, how noble your spirit is, but now we are a team, if you feel that you can't provide security for your companions, and only for your country, I still want you to leave, we don't want to be killed by our teammates one day;
So all of you must remember that not only Rebecca, but also you, whether a team is strong or not depends on the strength of one person to finish the job, but by everyone's joint efforts and cooperation, truly trust each other, give your weaknesses to your teammates to protect, and unite the team tightly, so strong that even if the God King sees him, he has to hide. ”
After saying that, I patted Rebecca on the shoulder and comforted, "Don't be sad! I don't blame you, don't do this kind of stupid thing again in the future, can you reason with a mad dog? Don't put your kindness and love on a poisonous snake, or you will only be hurt by yourself-come, eat a piece of meat to suppress the shock, well-"
"My lord—whoa—" Rebecca suddenly threw herself into my arms and cried.
I frowned slightly, and muttered in my heart: Take advantage of me again, always cry on me, annoyed to death!
"Don't cry at every turn, I always love to cry on my body, my clothes are stained with tears, it's very uncomfortable to wear, don't you know?" I said with an unhappy face.
But as if on purpose, these long braids rushed up and threw me to the ground, rubbing a handful of snot and tears against me.
"Oh - how can you do that? Oops - annoying! "I wanted to struggle, but I couldn't, I could only sigh.
At this time, I was glad that a few demonic beasts didn't come over to join in the fun, otherwise I was really worried that I would be crushed to death by them.
Being strong isn't necessarily good, like these little animals in front of me right now, they're weak, but — they're really cute, they're so cute.
For example, this fiery red squirrel has three fluffy tails and a pair of big twinkling eyes, not to mention how cute and clever it is;
There is also this parrot with light blue feathers, with three silver-white feathers in the center of its head, like a jade crown, and two soft feathers more than one meter long on the tail are extremely elegant, and the walking action is swaying and cute, which is very pleasing;
and a fluffy pika that looks like both a mouse and a rabbit, a tail is two or three times longer than the body, and there is a pinch of pure white fluff at the end of the tail, and from time to time he washes his face with his front paws, looking at his heart to melt, which is so flattering, so cute.
These little creatures were all animals that had been captured by Scar Man's gang of robbers, and when we found them, they were all more or less injured and dying.
After some treatment from us, the healed little ones clinged to us and couldn't get rid of them.
There are really a lot of demonic beasts hunting in the big forest, there are many of them, and there are many varieties, and the division of territory is also very clear, and the more you go to the periphery, the lower the level of demonic beasts.
We sat on the back of a big scorpion, and all the demonic beasts passing by only looked at it from a distance and did not dare to approach, so when we walked through the hunting forest, except for the demonic beasts that we took the initiative to catch as food, I didn't see what the other demonic beasts looked like.
