It was already completely dark, and in a clearing in the woods, a campfire was burning.

Qian squatted and sat by the campfire, but her eyes kept looking at Lu Fan, who was spread out in mud next to the tree.

"You look at me" couldn't stand the curious gaze that floated after a while, and Lu Fan took the lead in breaking the silence.

"Can you not be curious, a man who claims to be a mountain village man, wearing seemingly cheap clothes, holding a stick that does not know the roots, and carrying two sabers of Airy metal, easily repelled a level 7 powerhouse, and was able to fight the legendary dragon and survived, not to mention ......"

With Lu Fan trembling every time he said something, Qian suddenly stood up and narrowed the distance between the two.

"Besides...... What" Looking at the black-haired girl in front of him, Lu Fan's sour body couldn't react much.

"Besides...... I'm curious about the flames that can scorch the dragon, the magic that protects my place from harm, and what's going on between you and the dragon, Mr. Weirdo. ”

Is this really a girl who is only 13 years old, Lu Fan, who was unable to answer by the black-haired girl standing in front of her, wanted to complain about her age again.

"But you're really a good person, and you're still a stupid good person. Seeing Lu Fan, who was at a loss when asked by herself, the black-haired girl laughed first.

At that moment, even Lu Fan felt that this smile was really good-looking, her messy hair and somewhat dirty face couldn't hide her beauty under this smile, and she didn't even care so much about being issued a good person card.

I'm not Lolicon.

......

......

As for what happened to the dragon?

I still feel a little scared when I think about it, when I use the ball to forcibly restore the role of the swordsman, the first feeling is that familiar feeling is back, as if I have returned to the Star Continent.

With his hand, he pulled out the long Aili long knife, and with one sword, he slashed the dragon's breath in the air to pieces.

Sure enough, it's the familiar Annihilation Strike, a skill that specializes in in-game energy attacks, and it's just as effective in the Atlas.

Lu Fan, who had just entered a familiar state and was about to exert his might, was already full of warnings about insufficient experience points.

This is the consequence of forcibly maintaining oneself.

In desperation, he didn't even have time to check any of the panels of the swordsman character, so he could only throw another swordsman-specific range defense skill to Akane in the back, Rock Stand.

Wielding the saber of Airy Metal, the tacit understanding in his hand naturally directly used his mystical skill, Rock Crushing Slash.

Star Continent is not a game where skills are the main focus of combat, most of the skills are auxiliary weapons or physical bonuses, and the player's own personal skills are more important, so in terms of skills, they are relatively streamlined and have no gorgeous special effects.

Rock crushing rock shattering, originally refers to a large amount of swordsman light energy attached to the sword, powerful enough to split mountains and rocks, still great power here, a knife split the dragon's second dragon breath, the cut dragon breath exploded nearby, directly blasted a large area of open space around, and directly struck the dragon without taking advantage of the situation.

The dragon's superb defense still played a role, this knife down, although the black scales on the dragon's chest shattered and flew in an instant, accompanied by the blood that cut through the flesh, but it didn't even cut deep, at most it hurt it heavily, as for the kill, it was naturally easy for him to maintain this state for a long time.

But now, after slashing this knife, in the warning in his eyes, his strength quickly subsided, and even the dragon was in pain, and he was unable to take it with a flick of his tail, and he was smashed into the ground by a tail.

That's why it's planted upside down in the ground.

And the dragon was seriously injured by a blow, so naturally he didn't dare to stay here, and fled in a hurry with a wail.

......

......

"Sir, Mr. Weirdo?"

Qian's voice interrupted Lu Fan's memories, looking at Lu Fan who had just come back to his senses, the black-haired girl was a little unhappy.

"You didn't listen to me, did you?"

"Ah...... What are you talking about?" Scratching his head embarrassedly, Lu Fan smiled awkwardly

"I said, can you please not send me home?" Akane asked as she sat on the side and looked serious.

"Why? Didn't you get caught by that scorpion man, why don't you want to go back? ”

"I want to go to the imperial capital"

"Imperial Capital?" Lu Fan didn't have any impression, only remembered that it seemed that Mayor Rhodes seemed to be in the imperial capital now.

"Yes, this is and...... My background is related. As he spoke, he saw Qian take off the necklace around her neck and reach out to Lu Fan's eyes.

Lu Fan took it and took a look, this was not a jade pendant, but it looked like a ......

There is no dial like a pocket watch.

Open the round lid, inside is a "photo", it is two people, a man and a woman.

The man is quite handsome, with black hair and black eyes, and in the previous generation, just standing there is a fresh meat level.

As for the women......

No way

I looked up at Akane and then down at the photo.

"It's what you imagined," Akane suddenly spoke, "This is my biological parents, and since I was a child, I only had this necklace as a clue to my background. ”

It's no wonder that women are 7 points similar to Akane in front of them, and if you look closely, the masculine characteristics also have some manifestations on Akane's body

For example, Akane's eyes are more like this man, more spiritual.

"So, your parents are all from the Eastern Continent?"

"I don't know" the girl in front of her lowered her head, there was an indescribable loneliness in her eyes, "For as long as I can remember, my father has never mentioned this to me, although he knows about this necklace, but he has not mentioned my life experience to me." He was very nice to me and rarely asked me to do anything, only this time ......"

"This time?" Lu Fan knew that Blanche Rhodes was not in town at the moment.

"Before he went to the imperial capital, he told Brother Kevin alone that I was not allowed to go to the imperial capital during this time, and it was best not to even go out of the city, when I happened to be experimenting with my new props in the next room, and I heard it. In the past ten years, this is the first time that I will not be allowed to go out, not to mention that I have just returned from the imperial capital. ”

"Is it what happened in the imperial capital?"

"I heard Brother Kevin's statement today that the delegation of the Wind Spirit Empire is in the imperial capital at this time, although I don't know the reason, but from the bottom of my heart, I feel that a series of things have started since someone came to kidnap me today......"

"It's all related to them, right" Lu Fan naturally also knew that the Wind Spirit Empire was a country in the Eastern Continent, and it was really possible that there were a lot of connections.

"So, sir, please, don't send me back, okay, I want to go to the imperial capital, for more than ten years, I have been wondering about my life experience, and what happened to my parents, I have a hunch, the current imperial capital, there is everything I want to know. ”

Looking at the black-haired girl with a dull face, Lu Fan naturally softened, stood up with his weak legs, walked in front of Akane, stretched out his hand and touched the girl's black hair.

"Don't worry, not only will I not send you back to Fenglu Town, the imperial capital, I will also take you there"

The girl's dim eyes widened instantly, and she raised her head in surprise.

"Really, sir, is your body okay?"

"It's okay, it's just a little weak, it shouldn't be long before it's okay, look at me, I can still bounce ......"

Lu Fan, who could jump a ghost and tried to prove that he was okay with jumping, the weakness of his legs and feet made it difficult for him to stand firmly, and he fell to the ground again.

"Poof, Mr. Weirdo is really trying to save face. Looking at Lu Fan who was sitting on the ground, Qian couldn't help laughing.

......

......

It's late at night.

Looking at Qian, who was already asleep with two big leaves next to her, Lu Fan couldn't help but sigh slightly.

I really believe in myself.

Now let's take a look at what really happened to the previous maintenance swordsman.

As soon as his mind moved, the ball appeared in his hand again.

[It's a ball]

Aside from the familiar name hints, the experience points from crossing the Atlas to the present are empty, clean like the flush toilet at home before.

It seems that it took some of the previous learning of alchemy, and the maintenance swordsman directly used up all of his experience.

This time it was a special situation, so I took the initiative to remind myself that I could use my experience to maintain my "tuba".

Does that mean that if you have enough experience points, you can maintain it for a long time, or even

Fix your own "tuba"

This made Lu Fan's heart ripple.

Will there be any hope that I will even go back?

Lu Fan's heart still wants to go back, after all, there are still concerns that belong to him.

Ah Yin......

“...... Don't, it's my fault, don't say it again......"

The voice next to him interrupted Lu Fan's memories.

Turning her head, the sleeping girl's brows furrowed slightly, it seemed that she was having a nightmare, and said something in her dreams.

Laughing self-deprecatingly, he took the ball back into his backpack, Lu Fan sat down slowly, gently removed the snake scale soft armor on his body, and then put it on the girl.

Sitting next to the black-haired girl, watching the girl's slightly frowning brows slowly unfold, her delicate pretty face looked even more cute in the moonlight.

What a funny girl.

The corners of Lu Fan's mouth involuntarily rose again, leaning against the tree next to him, looking up at the night sky of twinkling stars.

This is the third day of coming to the Atlas.

Whether you find a way to go back, it's the same as surviving in the other world.

People always need something to do.

At that time, a cute and kind girl needs her own help, and she has the ability to do so, is there a reason to refuse?

Anyway, I've already come here, and it's okay to turn this place upside down, as long as I want to do what I think is right, I'm willing to do it.

......

......

"Are you sure you can go out if you go east?" Lu Fan, who was holding a wooden stick and hanging two knives on his waist, limped through the woods, and Qian in front of him was full of vitality.

Today's strength has recovered a lot, and it has also made Lu Fan feel a little relieved, the consequences of forcibly maintaining it do not seem to be permanent, although it may take a day or two to fully recover, but it is obviously in the process of rapid recovery.

"There's nothing else we can do. The girl who seemed to be in a good mood didn't care, "But sir, are you okay, it still seems that there is something wrong with you." ”

"It's not a big problem, it's been restored somewhat. Stretching out a hand and waving, Lu Fan glanced at the compass in this hand.

It's still moving in the direction of the east.

But at the current speed of the two of them, a half-crippled person, a little girl with no combat effectiveness, how long will it take?

......

......

"We're out! You see, sir, it's supposed to be a town in the distance, and we seem to have deviated a lot. ”

The girl said happily, took out a small tube from her bag, and there were lenses in front and back, and wanted something like a telescope, and stood there looking at the town.

And Lu Fan glanced at the map that was still gray.

This turned out to be the case.

Could it be that when he was chased by the big black dragon, he mainly fled south and did not go deep into the forest?

"Yes...... It's the town of Yep, and we're really in the Empire of Yes. The girl who put down the "binoculars" said as she looked at the town in front of her.

Really, it was similar to the route in the Golden Scorpion's plan, Lu Fan remembered that the killer was originally going to Yepu Town for supplies first, and then from Yep Town to the imperial capital of the Wusa Empire.

"The golden scorpion before is going to enter the Usa Empire again from here, is there no border defense between the empires?

Qian glanced at Lu Fan strangely, put the telescope in her hand back into her bag, and replied, "Sir...... I really don't know, since the Pingli, although there are still border lines and patrol troops between the empires, as long as there is a formal identification, such as the mercenaries of the business family or the mercenary guild, they can cross at will. That killer calls himself a veteran killer, so it should be easy to get these fake identities. ”

The countries of this world can really rely on an agreement to be peaceful for so many years, it feels incredible to think about it, this kind of border defense line that exists in name only, the unified currency of the whole world, etc., does not want an empire that is still dominated by imperial power.

With these questions, Lu Fan walked to Yepu Town with a limp step by step, holding a wooden stick turned into a cane.
