Chapter 42: Peering into the Eyes of a Silver-Haired Girl (I)

A month and a half had passed since the two were in distress, and Dess did not follow the previous message from Hide to return to Roland City, but continued to stay near the ruins of the Golden Tomb.

This was the first time that a silver-haired female apprentice had disobeyed the orders of her teenage mentor.

She did all of Ved's messages one by one, returned to the Okmi stronghold to replenish various supplies, and personally rushed to the main city of the Snapman family's territory, the Golden Chrysanthemum League branch in the eastern border city of Sepent, but according to Ved's message later, she only retrieved some resources and forwarded some design drawings for the elves to make some special props.

Dead's message even forbade her to inform the others of his distress, whether it was a fairy or a Wella, and arranged some countermeasures for this, much to the confusion of the silver-haired girl, but Des, who had always thought that there must be a reason for what Hide did, did anyway.

In the wee hours of the morning, when the sky was slightly white, Des slipped out of her sleeping bag and climbed out of the hoarfrost-covered tent for a quick and simple morning clean. Heat up the rest of the broth from last night on a rekindled campfire, then nibble on the dry food and pull out the new Warcraft material guide that Haven had written.

"The mentor has added new information about Warcraft. Des noticed that the Zuihou section was sandwiched with four sheets of cotton paper, on which were written messages that were not neat but were priceless to many hunters.

Flipping through the pages slightly, Dess flipped open one of the pages where the bookmark was held, and began to read the contents carefully from the part that had been interrupted yesterday.

"The information from the mentor is really useful, and he is familiar with the laws of various demonic beast activities, and even one person can survive in the wild. ”

Silver-haired girls aren't smart. But there is one advantage, and it is the kind of persistence that Hader admires the most. It makes her very hard and studious, and she is very patient to experience it again and again with practical actions. Incorporate useful knowledge into a variety of applications.

Half an hour later, the silver-haired girl finished her daily study, also finished breakfast, took out eight crystal nuclei of different colors from the prepared skin bag and swallowed them, then stood up and moved her body, slowly activating the source power in her body until she reached the best state, and then began to practice martial arts.

"Tomorrow we will start to return to Cerpon City, and the special items made by the elves should have been sent to the branch over there through the Guild. ”

The silver-haired girl roughly finalized the itinerary for the next day. Then he began to organize his equipment and prepare to rush to a certain Warcraft settlement.

Riding a six-legged monitor lizard, Des rode it to crawl quickly to the east, a row of shallow monitor lizard claw marks stretching out on the snowy surface, and the silver-haired girl began her day.

In one morning, Des completed nearly thirty hunts, knocking down fifty-three ogres, and the weakest one also reached LV55.

And the strongest combination of the three big ogres brought her a lot of trouble, those three big guys were all close to the seventh order, and the strength of their bodies and liliang were very terrifying.

Despite being attacked by Des lurking in the snowdrifts. One of the big ogres of about LV68 was cut off by the double-edged double blades in the hands of the giantized silver-haired girl before he could react, but the other ogre next to it subconsciously swung a bone stick to counterattack, causing the silver-haired girl to suffer a blow to the shoulder, but fortunately, due to the special essentia armor skill she had comprehended with her sixth-order strength, the light black armor covering the surface of her body and the protection of high-grade leather armor were covered. The injuries were not serious.

In the face of two monsters that slightly exceeded her own strength, the silver-haired girl, who had already been practically applied many times through the coping methods marked by Hyde, did not panic, and quickly shrank back to a normal state. Cleverly taking advantage of the complex environment and the disadvantage of the large ogre's slow movement, he walked around the trees and rocks. deliberately attacked the opponent's limb joints, and finally dragged the other party down after being entangled with the two big ogres for nearly half an hour.

"Mentor. I've improved a little bit again. The silver-haired girl was a little happy but not complacent, she still remembered what Hade had said to her at the beginning, the strength below the eighth order was actually pure data. And his rapid rise to the seventh order at the level of an ordinary person in a year and a half is the most haode example.

A team of hunters in the cold season passed by nearby, and when they saw the scene of the silver-haired girl knocking down two great ogres above the sixth order alone, they couldn't help but have some admiration, and they said hello. Des nodded slightly in return, and put the harvested crystal nucleus into the skin bag, she was still very cautious in this regard, and would never use the dual chakra hidden under the leather arm guard of her left hand when there were outsiders present.

At the end of the morning's routine, Des returned to the camp for a rest, a meal, and a treatment for a bruise on her shoulder, before heading to a rift near the ruins of the Golden Tomb.

After Dess returned from the city of Sepenter more than 20 days ago, he found that the environment of the ruins had changed greatly, many parts of the ruins that had been exposed to the surface had been buried with a large amount of sand and gravel, and countless golden warrior guards and magic gold jellyfish swarms patrolled back and forth in the central area of the Golden Tomb, and continued to bury the ruins.

Much to the chagrin of the silver-haired girl who had brought back a large number of excavation tools, she had planned to start cleaning up slowly from the previous collapse, even if the collapsed sewer was more than a kilometer deep, she was confident that she could dig a way out within a month, which was the rescue method that the unintelligent Dess had come up with.

"No wonder the mentor won't let me go back here, it's ...... situation"

That day, Des stood on the outskirts of the ruins for a whole day, remembering a lot of the past.

A year and a half ago, due to the heat of alienation, she had lost the foundation of more than ten years of hard cultivation, and at that time, when Hide and Uncle Magick were present, the silver-haired girl seemed quite strong.

But what the two of them didn't know was that when the two of them exited Des's room, the silver-haired girl curled up in a ball on the bed and cried silently for a long time. At that time, she was still a young girl under the age of eighteen, and such a big blow also made her feel deep despair and loss.

In fact, she is not as strong as she appears on the outside.

Until Uncle Magick excitedly rushed into the room and told her that the black-haired boy had a special way to save her, and was even willing to grant her a more haode inheritance. Des's heart swelled up with renewed hope.

To use a more clichéd phrase, at that time, the heart of the silver-haired girl seemed to have a little light lit up in the endless darkness.

She decides to become Heder's apprentice. Although she knew the price of being an apprentice, for that glimmer of hope. She was mentally prepared.

After ten years of hard self-reliance, Dess knew a lot more than her peers, and she understood what it meant to be an apprentice, dignity, self, and self-purity, all of which she was afraid to throw away. In the Olympian Empire, the relationship between mentors and apprentices who are willing to pass on their excellent inheritance is to put it bluntly. It is basically equal to the relationship between the slave owner and the slave.

Perhaps in the eyes of many outsiders, the choice of the silver-haired girl is almost self-defeating. Well, people can indeed think so, but the opinions of unrelated people who don't understand hardship and hard work at all do not represent the true essence of shijie.

However, after a year and a half, nothing happened.

The dark-haired teenage mentor has given Des more than she ever imagined, precious and the most suitable for her legacy. From low to high, there are various crystal nuclei supply, even including food, clothing, shelter and transportation. Compared to the other mentors in the Empire, the silver-haired girl didn't know how to describe the difference......

From the initial resolute decision to give up on himself, to the initial slight wariness. And then gradually getting used to it, Des's heart is also slowly changing, and the initial gratitude has slowly transformed into a feeling that she herself does not know very well. Although until now she still doesn't know what Hede is really after. But from that day on, the silver-haired girl made up her mind. Even if he wants to be the enemy of Quan Shijie, he will follow without hesitation.

In a rift about two kilometers from the ruins of the Golden Tomb.

"Bang". The shovel in Des's hand plunged into the tight, hard rock in the deepest part of the cavern, slicing through large swaths of heavy rock and soil, and falling into the cart at her side as the silver-haired girl's hands turned. A few minutes later, Des drove a cart full of gravel down the cavern corridor.

In twenty-four days, the silver-haired girl dug six kilometers of tunnels, and she was not an expert in this area, but she remembered a lot of knowledge from her experience as a long-term helper in the ore vein quarries as a child: the oblique upward structure of the entrance to prevent the influx of water, the strengthening and support of the outer wall of the cave, and so on, which she remembered.

"The harder the rock and soil become, the harder it becomes, and this is what the master said about the soil strengthened by alchemy. However, although the progress has slowed down, the various support and reinforcement work has been lightened. The silver-haired girl grabbed the frozen towel hanging around her neck, wiped the beads of sweat from her forehead, and exhaled a mouthful of white mist.

She also knows that her liliang alone is limited. However, it doesn't matter if she can't dig it in a month? It doesn't matter, she can dig it for half a year, she can't dig it in half a year? It doesn't matter, she can dig it for ten years!

The silver-haired girl's mind came to mind the scene of that day, in order to save herself, the black-haired young mentor was drowned by countless terrifying magic gold jellyfish clusters.

"Mentor, I will definitely rescue you!"

..................................................................

What the silver-haired girl didn't know was that her current actions were actually being watched by three groups of people with different goals.

One of the groups was about a dozen people sitting or standing on a dirt slope five kilometres from the rift valley where Des was located.

"Lord Thurwell, this woman is quite in the way, why don't you let me go over and kill her?" said one of the tall, middle-aged men with particularly slender arms.

The handsome man with white hair and silver-white clothes shook his head slightly: "It's so good, you can't waste it......." His slender eyes narrowed, and with the eyes of a hungry dragon staring at its prey, he looked at the silver-haired girl who was dumping sand and gravel with a cart five kilometers away.

The few people next to him heard him talk to himself, and their hearts were slightly cold, the Lord Thurville they were loyal to was a noble nobleman who was extremely psychopathic, and especially liked to torture and kill young women. Most of the people here have seen the gentle and courteous Lord Thurwell, known as the "Silver Winged Dragon King", personally spending more than ten hours torturing young women, and His Excellency the Third Duke of the Degens family, who likes to share these with others, is well known among the family and his confidants.
