Uzov and Maiersha set out together again for hunting. These days, in addition to providing food for everyone, there is also the black dragon that comes to beat the autumn wind from time to time. The huge consumption forced the two of them to hunt down all the nearby animals, including several monsters.
Because the rifle and box provided by a certain magician were so powerful, for the two of them, the most troublesome part of hunting was the process of transporting the prey. No search or hunting is a big problem. But because there are no living creatures nearby, if they want to hunt now, they have to walk a long distance before they can see the creatures that can move in the snow.
Several times, they wanted to find the black dragon that was stealing food and kill it. But it was as if the other party did not exist and had never appeared in the rifle's search range. As we prepare to leave these days, what we need to do is of course stock up on more food. So Uzhov and Melsha set out again.
Looking at his dark elf companion next to him, who was wrapped up tightly, Uzov remembered the little trouble he encountered when they first started hunting together. Most of the races that claim to be cursed by sunlight dare not walk in the daylight. This is because Mai Ershan is brave enough. With a big cloak and a hood, she dares to wander around.
However, several times when she encountered monsters and had to fight to get close, she was in danger because she had difficulty using her hands and feet. This was also the reason why Uzov discovered such a problem and turned to the two magicians for help, although Maier was reluctant at first.
The knowledgeable lich did not make a judgment too quickly. Instead, another magician who continued to create miracles - Lin's various actions were no different from miracles in Uzov's eyes - took a few glances. , followed by some strange behaviors. Things like drawing blood, pinching the woman's wrists, looking into the eyes, and looking deep into the throat are all confusing.
But just like this, he made a judgment and said: "Don't worry, this is not a curse. It is just because of living underground for a long time without exposure to sunlight. Although the skin color is darker, the skin still lacks the necessary pigment. You will feel pain when you are exposed to the sun, but it is just a serious sunburn and will not be fatal. Just expose yourself to the sun more and get used to it. Having said that, your setting is somewhat similar to the dark elves in Faerûn. It’s just that everyone has seen the double-sword ranger too much, and they have forgotten that the dark elves are not used to lying on the surface. And they are also for the same reason?"
Although I couldn’t understand the meaning of most of the words, I didn’t know where the continent of Faerûn was, nor did I know which double-sword ranger might be the person mentioned by the magician. But there are still a few key sentences in the speech that people can understand.
First of all, this is not a curse. Second, sunburn; third, just get used to it.
Although the dark elf lady who was following him was still dubious, her actions during the day were much bolder. At least with the help of her druid spell, Uzov's hunting went much more smoothly.
The pain that Maiershan felt from time to time was regarded by her as a kind of training given to her. After all, just as the man said, the stinging pain that lasted for a long time after being exposed to the sun did not make him unable to move, and he could always recover.
Originally, she would bring a crossbow and try to help with the hunt. But within a few days, she went out with only close-range weapons. And most of the time, it's just to help with rough handling of prey in the field. The several crises she encountered were caused by monsters that suddenly entered stealth, disappeared from the search map, and launched sudden attacks, which put her in crisis.
Under the power of Haggiri, the iron yak monster, which was said to be invulnerable with its fur, was directly cut in two. If there wasn't something wrong with the sword's personality, Maiershan would have wanted to snatch it back and regard it as a sacred weapon of the clan. She really didn't dare to ask the question. Just like the legend, those who can use this noisy weapon are indeed extraordinary people.
However, this crisis also made the two people who went hunting understand what the magician warned them before they left: the rifle is just a prototype and there are always imperfections, so you must still be careful when going out.
Warcraft that know how to conceal their presence will disappear from the search map. This flaw has been told to the magician. He was just busy repairing the airship and had no time to improve the design of the rifle, so the magician just asked the two of them to be more careful.
In fact, for Lin, he only needs to change the enemy search mode to find the enemy's traces in other ways, but that is a function only available on the larger arcane eyes. The ultra-small arcane eye installed on the rifle only has a single enemy detection mode, and there are no plans to improve it for the time being. The reason is really because it is too busy.
When it was time to leave, no one seemed to have thought about the possibility of failure to repair the airship. On the contrary, I felt indescribable excitement about being able to leave this snow-covered mountain as soon as possible. The solar term at the foot of the mountain should be the time when spring flowers are blooming.
Compared with the surface, the underground world is stuffy and hot. As a new arrival in Maiershan, he felt a sense of freshness despite not being able to adapt. Especially the flowing wind is a feeling that has never been experienced in the underground world. But the snow scene on the mountain, apart from being beautiful at first glance, is always a complaint about the damn weather. This is the same for everyone. Wanting to leave as soon as possible is the common wish of everyone.
However, just as Uzov and Maiershao packed up their prey again and prepared to return, an unusual light spot appeared on the search map, which aroused their vigilance.
Because the light spots are graded and color-coded according to the standard of magic stones, some say they are the colors of the rainbow. In this snow-covered mountain forest, the two of them could only see almost green monsters. It was that time that I was touched by a sneaking monster and almost ended up in this mountain forest. qq
This time, what they saw was a dark blue light spot, which would not be an exaggeration to say it was purple. Monsters of this level are qualified to compete for the natural throne of this land. The most likely one is of course the black dragon.
The dark blue light spot was quite close to the airship maintenance location. However, the weapon that might be able to break through the black dragon's scale armor was in his own hands. After realizing it, the two dropped the prey on their shoulders and ran back through the snow with all their strength.
When they walked out of the forest and came to the large open space where the airship was repaired, what they saw was a thin and disabled black dragon. But the huge figure, the looking-down figure, and the aura from the dragon clan, each of them made those who witnessed it tremble from the bottom of their hearts.
A very skinny camel is bigger than a horse, this is also true in many places. But looking at the behemoth in front of him, Uzov had to admit that the crippled black dragon was stronger than a human. Just because of his size, he didn't feel confident that he would be able to fight in a duel with the Hakakiri in hand.
And the magician stood in front of the black dragon, holding his head high, fearless.
"Ignorant human beings." The black dragon raised its forelimb with only one finger left on its left side, pointed at Lin, and said in a loud voice like a bell in the common language of Midi: "I never thought that being so stupid as you would leave such a confused mark. An unknown message."
"I didn't expect you to actually show up." Someone smiled awkwardly. Behind him were others headed by Fen. After all, facing a black dragon is no small matter, and no one can sit still.
"As the Lord of Darkness, I will not leave this lonely land. But I hope that you can take away this little thing. I am a proud and powerful person, and this child is even qualified to be an emergency ration. No, we shouldn’t stay in this cruel land where the weak eat the strong.” As the black dragon said, it pushed out a human child at its feet.
However, the child, who looked to be only three or four years old, was quite attached to the black dragon. Although he was pushed away, he still ran back and hugged the black dragon's thick legs.
Seeing a human child following the black dragon, Lin said with some surprise: "I didn't expect to see you, let alone this little thing. Where are his parents?"
"How can we care about such mundane things? I saw this child lying in the snow, all alone. Rather than die easily from the wolf's mouth, why not hide it by your side and enjoy it when you rise. However, this child is indescribably smelly, noble How can I leave such a lowly human race to pollute my breath and stain my sight?"
"It's okay to take him away. But I'm mainly looking for you. You won't forget this, right?" Lin said.
"Hmph." The black dragon used his still intact hand to cover his lowered head, looked at the human in front of him with contempt, and said: "What do you want for a weak person? This old and broken body? Dragon teeth and claws? Or do you want to be like the legendary hero, bathing in dragon blood and making yourself invulnerable?"
After laughing twice, Lin Xian changed the topic and said, "My neck feels a little sore when I talk to you with my head raised like this. Can you use humanization magic? I want to have a good talk."
After a moment of silence, Black Dragon opened his mouth and spat out a rapid language that no one could understand. Immediately, the scattered power on the mountain concentrated like a whirlpool towards the black dragon in the center, and started a real snowstorm.
When the wind and snow settled, the black dragon's huge body had disappeared without a trace. And in the center of the wind and snow, stood a tall old man with gray hair. One-eyed, lame, with broken hands, and a skinny and skinny body.
The child who was originally following the black dragon was startled at first. But after sniffing with his nose and smelling the familiar smell, he rushed forward and hugged the right leg of the black dragon who transformed into an old man.
"Speak, weak human being. The great and noble Lord of Darkness, Augustus, condescends to hear your humble wish. Seize this precious opportunity that you may not encounter once in your life."
Regarding the black dragon's terminology, someone felt a sense of shame coming over him. But to be honest, it's somehow not annoying. And in the natural freezing field where I keep food outdoors, I put a wooden sign that says 'I am leaving, do you want to go with me?', which can be regarded as an invitation. After all, the purpose is to say: "I want to learn dragon language magic."
Coming to the magic side of the world, and there are dragons, why not try to experience the so-called "dragon magic".
