"Zhizhi, Zhizhi?"
Fox-faced witch: "..."
"Squeak, squeak, squeak?"
Fox-faced witch: "..."
"squeak..."
"I understand what you mean, Xin Yan, but...but don't do that kind of thing!!"
On a hidden high slope, the miko lady, who was clearly wearing a fox mask, was still squatting down with her face covered, shaking her head, looking extremely ashamed and refusing to see anyone.
At this scene, a certain little sparrow landed on the witch's shoulder, letting out a very anthropomorphic sigh.
Halo magic was used by Vivian during the battle in Huodian City. Now that she is stronger, the area that the natural halo can radiate is larger. Vivian used this method to secretly assist Sakuragi. Players on the island.
The little girl now had just finished buffing the halo to the players in this area and was preparing to go to the next place where players gathered. Xin Yan, who had been given the important task of "supervising" by the little wolf cub, finally couldn't sit still.
The meaning of Xin Yan's chirping just now was probably to urge the little girl, it's almost done, stop hiding behind the scenes, it's time to go and contact people in foreign lands like Brother Xiao Hei said.
But Vivian's reaction to this has been seen before.
Sure enough, even if she is wearing a fox mask, it is still too difficult for a little girl to meet people wearing a witch costume that has huge cultural differences!
Of course this is only one of them.
In the face of the overall situation, Vivian can overcome this shameful thought, it's nothing.
What really makes the little girl afraid to meet the players is actually...
"Xin Yan, do you think...are we a little too selfish?" At some point, Vivian stood up from squatting on the ground with her face covered.
The shame she felt just now gradually faded away, and the little girl looked far below the island, where the players were fighting with the cursed thunder beasts.
But after losing the blessing of her aura, it didn't take long for the players to retreat due to lack of supplies. However, there will always be a few unlucky ones who failed to escape the hatred range of the monster and ended up with hatred. Or be cursed and bleed to death.
Although their fallen bodies would turn into white light in the next moment, and then magically resurrect and be reborn on the coast where they landed on the island, this was something Vivian had secretly confirmed several times in person.
But deep down in the little girl's heart, this feeling is still uncomfortable.
There is even one point that makes Vivian think about it and be extremely frightened.
That is the inevitable side effect that comes from becoming stronger.
Can it be described as "side effects"?
Vivian doesn't know.
But what she knows is that if she were the nameless little village girl who knew nothing about the world, she would definitely feel cruel and cruel to her suggestion of transferring strangers to Sakuragi Island. incredible.
Because she was a weak person back then, just like the stranger now, she could understand from a weak point of view what a dangerous place Sakuragi Island is for ordinary people before making a decision.
However, she has become a "witch", and there is Xiao Hei, Xin Yan, and various reliable and powerful partners around her, so the first impression of Sakuragi Island given to Vivian does not exist in her subconscious. The concept of "danger".
When she began to secretly help the strangers as a "fox-faced witch", she witnessed that with her help, those strangers were finally able to avoid being killed by the monsters on the island over and over again. She also witnessed the killing of a certain female stranger among them. When she killed a floating thunder beast with her own hands, she even sat on the ground and cried loudly on the spot, because before that, she had been killed by that monster 14 times in a row.
These all touched Vivian.
The little girl realized that Sakuragijima, which she thought was "nothing", was actually like a pony crossing a river. She had crossed the river line too much.
From Vivian's perspective, she didn't know that there was such a creature as a "player". What she knew was that the player was the image of the player in the eyes of the vast majority of aboriginal people, as a displaced traveler who had escaped from misfortune.
She should not arrange these already suffering people to Sakuragi Island. Even if she lets them grow for a period of time and then hires them to Sakuragi Island in other ways, it would be better than now.
well...
The face under the fox mask sighed.
Just like why Vivian insists on rejecting violence, it is because she is worried that she will develop the habit of using violence to solve everything. Now Vivian is a little scared. She is afraid that one day she will lose the ability to understand the weak. Which leads to doing some very ridiculous things.
Just like a certain big-city noble once came to their poor village to buy maids. After seeing how skinny each of them was, he asked them in a very complaining tone why they didn't eat more meat.
Vivian doesn't want to be like this.
But she also understands that nothing in the world is static, and people are the same.
so...
call!
Vivian took off her fox mask and let out a long breath of turbid air in her chest.
It is difficult for people to keep their original intentions, but it does not mean that they have to give up directly. Since she has discovered her mistakes halfway, she must do her best to make up for and correct them.
Looking at the densely packed large number of foreigners on the coastline.
The miko lady clenched her small fists in her sleeves and put on her fox mask again.
"Let's go, Xin Yan."
"Haw? Haw?"
"Well, let's not go to the next area now. I suddenly thought of a new place. When the time comes, I have to ask Xinyan."
As the fox-faced witch said this, she put the little sparrow with its head tilted and a puzzled expression in her hand and stroked its head a few times before disappearing in a flash.
When the figure of the fox-faced witch appeared again, she was already on an island in the middle of a large lake.
Many water sources on Sakuragi Island are diverted and collected here.
"Haw?"
"Xinyan, can I borrow that feather of yours?" The fox-faced witch asked the little sparrow next to her with her hands folded.
Although the little girl had a pleading tone, how could Xin Yan not agree? She seemed to understand what Vivian wanted to do. The little sparrow used its wings to dig out the back of her little buttocks with a look of reluctance. The bright red feather was placed in the hands of the witch.
By the way, in order to match the character of the fox-faced witch, the little wolf cub also asked Xin Yan to do some disguise, dyeing the originally fiery red chick into earthy gray. Now it is really no different from a sparrow.
After getting Xinyan's "Blazing Feather", the figure of the fox-faced witch floated to the center of the lake.
Through the mask, she saw the dark purple lake surface below that had been polluted by the curse. There seemed to be many aberrant monsters hiding under the water.
But when the fox-faced witch opened her closed hands, the special feather from the forbidden monster "Phoenix of Fire" slowly fell from the palm of her hand, and finally landed on the purple lake...
Uh-huh!
A dazzling fiery red color bloomed from the feathers, and the blazing flames covered the entire lake in an instant. Xinyan's phoenix authority was reborn, repairing all damage in the fire, and the water source polluted by the curse was naturally regarded as being destroyed. "Repair" ranks.
Then, a magical scene appeared. Under the baking of the flames, the uncomfortable purple color in the lake began to gradually fade away, and turned more and more clear and transparent, as if it had been purified. Those symbols The purple color of the "curse" eventually turned into mist and steam, which quickly disappeared after evaporating into the air.
The whole process didn't take long.
When Vivian touched the lake water with her hands again, a very ordinary and normal cooling feeling came from her fingertips. There was no longer the original feeling of cursed water with stinging and burning.
"Xin Yan, so awesome!"
Vivian nodded quietly in her heart while stroking the little sparrow who enjoyed the praise.
This way... we should be able to cope with it for the time being, right?
The reason why "temporarily" is used is because the current lake water relies on the power of the fire to maintain its purified state. Once the energy of the feathers is exhausted, and the curse power from the roots of Sakuragi Island is not eliminated, the pollution will still remain. Will make a comeback.
But at least it seems that Feather will have no problem holding on for about three days.
The little girl noticed very early that even if a stranger did not eat or drink, he would not feel hungry or thirsty, but he would still die from it physically.
Therefore, purifying water sources and bringing at least clean and drinkable water to strangers is Vivian's first step to improve and make amends.
In Xin Yan's eyes, this is undoubtedly a "redundant" approach. After all, strangers can ignore death, so there is no need to go to such trouble to get them clean water. Why not just be reborn after death?
But for the little girl, this symbolizes a change in her general direction.
What she was thinking about was no longer how to let the strangers conquer the cursed thunder beast, but...how to make it easier for the strangers to survive on this island of disaster.
Of course, if the little wolf cub was at the scene, he might lament Vivian's accidental collision.
Because Xin Yan understands that it is wrong that death has no effect on strangers, it is just because the player level is low now, so he can't see it.
Once the players level up, if the problem of hunger and thirst is not alleviated and the phenomenon of starving to death from thirst occurs frequently, the players will be stuck in a cycle forever.
However, this was a matter that had to be solved later, but Vivian unexpectedly changed the order and moved it to the first one.
The water source has been purified, but there is a problem now. The time for purification is precious, and the sooner people in foreign lands know about it, the better.
But in this case, contact between the two parties is unavoidable.
"Xin Yan..." Vivian thought about it for a while, and finally turned her eyes for help to the little sparrow beside her shoulder.
"Chi..."
The little sparrow immediately understood what Vivian meant, and weakly squeaked at the fox-faced witch.
There is no way, who calls myself a monster?
Xinyan flew up from the shoulders of the fox-faced witch, circled in the sky, found the nearest player gathering place, and quickly approached it.
...
...
"Umbrella, let's not just sit here all the time. Let's go to the island for a walk!"
The girl who was browsing the forum heard the female assistant next to her muttering softly, and said without even raising her head:
"Why, you still like to go out for a walk? Last time you were killed more than ten times by a small floating thunder beast, and you were so angry that you were offline and you forgot the painful experience so quickly?"
When the female assistant heard this, she gritted her teeth on the spot, as if recalling the original time, but soon she said:
"Isn't it different now? I just checked the forum and saw that the "Fox-faced Miko" buff of the player next to us disappeared not long ago. Maybe it will be our turn next time, so why don't we take this opportunity and go out quickly? Killing indiscriminately! "
As he spoke, the female assistant rolled up her sleeves and waved her little fists.
In fact, most players now have this mentality. Even though the "Fox-faced Miko" does not appear, from the appearance and disappearance of her buff, one can still vaguely guess the opponent's trajectory and predict the next blessed area. Where the area might be.
So from the beginning, Vivian went to places where there were many players to put her halo, and it gradually evolved into a large number of players trying to chase the little girl.
After all, there is a huge gap between whether there is a "blessing" battle or not.
"I'm not interested. You can go ahead." The girl waved to her female assistant.
Her focus now is on hoping to find out what the fox-faced miko's next move will be, and quickly let her finish the anti-routine article.
"Then I'm going!" Seeing that she couldn't get the girl away, the female assistant stopped trying and excitedly went to find the floating thunder beast again to seek revenge.
But at this moment, a little sparrow flying from nowhere suddenly appeared in front of her.
"Huh!?" The female assistant looked surprised.
Sparrows are not uncommon, but if they are placed on Sakuragi Island, it is a bit surprising, because so far, it can be said that the player has not seen a normal creature, they are all aberrations under the curse.
The female assistant subconsciously stretched out her finger. Who would have thought that this little sparrow would actually land on her finger!
"Wow! Look at the big umbrella!"
She excitedly called out to the girl companion next to her, but the girl just glanced at her and quickly moved away without paying much attention.
But this little sparrow seemed to understand people's words and knew that this girl was the leader, and was very dissatisfied with her indifferent attitude. It actually flew up from the female assistant's finger and landed directly on the girl's head. .
"you!"
The girl got a little angry on the spot and wanted to take a picture. As a result, the little sparrow was extremely flexible and couldn't get it off. It even made a "squeaking" sound, as if it was mocking.
Only then did the girl and the female assistant finally realize the strangeness of this little sparrow.
So they made an unusual move.
On a sunny day, I carried an umbrella but no knife and threw it towards the little sparrow with the "Detection" skill.
Then....
"..."
"Wtf??" The girl rarely cursed.
