At night, Halumi was rarely quiet. The injury on her calf made her so painful that she could not speak, so she could only rest. Let someone sigh that the wild girl finally stopped.
At the suggestion of her companion, Halumi took out the magic knowledge that she had not read for a long time and studied it. She changed her focus to see if she could use her dizziness to reduce the pain to some extent.
Kaya was picking up the remains of dinner by the campsite. Fen was frowning and gargling, hoping to dilute the uncomfortable taste in his mouth. Just because she's willing to eat what she makes doesn't mean she's really satisfied with the taste.
Seeing Fen's troubled look, Lin also knew what the trouble was for this lich these days, and asked: "Do you still taste some weird smells?"
"Any ideas? Also, why can't you feel the smell?"
"I'm guessing, maybe this is a problem with your new body."
Regarding this speculation, Fen frowned and asked, "Are you saying this body is defective?"
"It's probably too much to call it a flaw. I would say, I think it's a side effect of enhancing the body's performance."
"What kind of side effects? Ah!" This woman who can achieve the body of a lich is not unsmart. After being awakened, she immediately thought of the possibility and asked: "You mean the problem of being too sensitive?"
"Yes, in fact, you have experienced a similar situation, and we have even discussed it. That was the situation where the body condensed with power received too much external information, causing thoughts to be disturbed. I remember that I once I have said that many of people’s less-than-pleasant reactions are actually a protective mechanism. Including dullness, it actually avoids a lot of unnecessary interference.”
"But I got used to it by then."
"Doesn't this just prove the difference in the degree of control you have over the body condensed by power and the real body? And I am guessing that maybe the body you have worked hard to build is not just about the ability to accept various substances. , that is, the resistance is different from ordinary people; the acceptable range of various cognitions is also much wider and more sensitive than ordinary humans. Therefore, we can taste some flavors that we cannot taste, and smell some The smells that we cannot smell. And those things that ordinary people cannot detect may be because they are in extremely small amounts and are not large enough to form a smell that ordinary people can detect. But your keen senses can capture those extremely small amounts. Taste, and then identify it. However, those may be nutrients needed by the human body, but ordinary people may not be able to consume excessive amounts of substances. Therefore, if the amount is large enough for ordinary people to detect the taste, it may represent danger. signal. So under the action of the human body's defense mechanism, those tastes must be unpleasant to warn people who eat those things. Just like you can eat poison as if nothing happened, but you should not You will like to eat those things."
"Oh, you are wrong. The ones I ate yesterday had a unique taste and were quite spicy. If their portions were not too small, I would have wanted to eat more."
...Okay, wrong example.
However, for the above words, someone is just gnashing his teeth. Give this lich some more time, and sooner or later she will realize these truths and adapt to the situation at hand.
You must know that after Fen was resurrected in the Tower of the Great Sage, he put on high heels for the first time, but he complained all the time that those things were intended to kill him. In less than three days, she could wear high heels and drive the two big dogs Gray Hooves and White Nose up and down the world without any escape.
You must know that at that time, Lin had already added magical tattoos with the magic of walking on flat ground on the four legs of the two dog-shaped monsters. They are in the true sense of walking on the road, climbing over the walls and so on can only be regarded as trivial. Such an invincible state is of no use to a certain lich who has returned to the Lost Land after a thousand years.
Wearing pointed high-heeled shoes, a certain lich who was half a head taller than usual chased two big dogs until they were exhausted and fell to the ground with his tongue hanging from the corner of his mouth, looking like a monster. The appearance of God’s calling. The two big dogs were forced to go nowhere, and in the end they could only cry and beg for mercy.
With such achievements in front of me, today's chat with Fen is just a bit of talk, and it can be exchanged for goodwill without any effort. Someone wouldn't even do such a small thing.
But having said that, someone's expression is quite wonderful when being complained about until he is speechless.
Looking at the man who was speechless by him, Fen didn't feel guilty at all. She just thought about her situation seriously and murmured to herself: "The body before was condensed with power, so how it changed was just a matter of thought. Now it has become a living body, equally sensitive, and has a wider range of feelings." If it’s wider, how do we control it? Or do we just have to get used to this feeling?”
Suddenly a thought came to mind uncontrollably. A pair of beautiful eyes almost curved into a crescent shape, with her teeth slightly exposed, Fen looked at a certain man seductively.
"What are you looking at?" A man who didn't understand the charm asked almost subconsciously.
The next morning, the refreshed former Demon King stretched out under the mid-spring morning sun. In fact, the current state of my body is not all bad.
The two apprentices acted as usual, maintaining a tacit understanding and pretending to be no different from usual. Those who should make breakfast make breakfast, and those who should make other preparations make other preparations.
Although Halumi's injury only lasted a day, it was not much better. But as a half-experienced druid, she could still do some simple treatments and pain relief. It doesn’t hinder my daily work, it’s just that my movements are a little slower. To get her to completely calm down and rest, she might have to break both legs.
When everyone was getting ready to set off again, a man who was paralyzed like a dead dog and had no energy to even eat breakfast was thrown into the caravan.
The two girls were sitting in the driver's seat, with Kaya holding the reins. Halumi, who was sitting on the passenger seat, didn't want to sit in the carriage, but simply couldn't stand the environment where she couldn't see the sky, the mountains, or the forest, or feel the wind. So she preferred to sit next to her companion and position her injured leg as comfortably as possible. This was definitely not because he didn't want to look at the man who howled like a slaughtered pig all night long, with his exhausted and pale face.
The calm black-haired and brown-skinned girl drove the car. Although the speed was a bit slow, it was smooth and safe. It will not be like when Halumi held the reins before, it was fast and slow, left and right, as he pleased without leaving any trace. Some people have never imagined that they would get motion sickness while riding in a horse-drawn carriage.
But Kaya is different. She can always detect the location of traps in advance, and most of them will be solved by triggering. Because according to their teacher's instructions, if they simply go around it, the person who set the trap probably won't be kind enough to turn around and lift the trap. This will only harm other careless travelers walking on this road.
And without a wild girl running wild, everyone no longer needs to keep an eye on a girl nervously, worrying that when she encounters something that cannot be solved, or attracts a bunch of monsters back, the group of them will not be able to respond in time. .
In terms of results, such a journey reduces the psychological burden. Therefore, the two elders also agreed not to untie the horses and give some wild girl an excuse to run around.
Especially now that there are only four horses left. Despite the heavy load of this covered carriage, there is no need to use four horses to pull it. Perhaps two, or even one, horses would suffice. Moreover, there is no rule about how many carriages a person of certain status can take in Midi. Basically, the number of horses pulling the cart is more like showing off your wealth.
But how could a person of real status use only horses to pull a cart? There are many people who use elephant-level beasts, ox-shaped monsters, or even earth-walking dragons to pull carts.
In short, tying four horses to pull a cart is really not a big deal.
As for someone who had regained his breath, he was lying lazily at the end of the caravan. Rest your head on the tailgate and look up at the clouds in the sky.
The sky of Lost Land is somewhat different from the sky of Earth. The sky here has more colors, perhaps because the air is filled with strange energy that is not found on Earth, reflecting brilliant light and strange scenes from time to time. Lin once saw a scene where the entire sky was filled with magnificent auroras in a place where power was very active.
Yes, it's like an aurora. On Earth, you can only see it if you're close to the Arctic Circle and you're very lucky. In Lost Land, as long as you look up at it leisurely, you can always see it several times throughout the year. No matter day or night, sometimes if you are lucky, you can look up at the sky in the afternoon when it has been clear for several days in a row, and you can see the colorful, cloud-like aurora.
And among the clouds of the lost land, although it is not like what is described in ordinary people's beliefs, there is the kingdom of the gods located there, with angels flying between the clouds; or the heroic spirits who once fought for the gods in the human world, Ride a winged Pegasus and play freely in the kingdom of the gods. But there is another special product of the fantasy world in the sky of Lost Land - the floating city.
The ancient empire spent countless resources to create five Myser energy cores, uprooting five mountains and turning them into islands floating in the sky. This is not a legend, but a force that exists in reality. To this day, the five floating cities are still following special trajectories, slowly cruising in the sky. Sometimes if you are lucky, you can look up and see islands hanging high in the sky.
In every city, countless magicians have lived in it for generations. They call themselves heavenly beings, different from the humans living on the surface. It has the most complete magic inheritance and collects rare materials that have been preserved from ancient times to this day, some of which have even become extinct on the surface of the earth. It can be said that the floating city is the holy land that all magicians in the lost land yearn for.
