When Xiaobai followed Xia Zhi out of the street where he lived, he didn't feel any nervousness.
Although Badr meant that safety was not guaranteed just a street away from his residence, he felt that for ordinary players, it was not a deterrent at all.
So he was in a very good mood, as if he was out shopping, and had some free time to chat with Xia Zhi beside him.
"What exactly do you want me to help you with?"
He just saw Xia Zhi chatting with the guards for a while as he passed by the entrance of the hall.
Combining all the previous information, he had some guesses in his mind.
Xin Zhixia couldn't help but feel a little relieved when she looked at the person next to her who was looking relaxed, as if she was out for a walk.
Judging from the look of this guy, unless he wants to take action, other NPCs probably won't be able to hit him.
However, the more this happened, the more uneasy she became.
Xin Zhixia tilted her head, raised a smile at the corner of her mouth, and said with a bit of evil: "Don't worry, sister, I will take you for a walk first."
Sure enough, the next second after hearing Xia Zhi's words, Xiao Bai rolled his eyes speechlessly.
It's one thing to call yourself sister, but it's another thing for this person to call herself sister.
Xin Zhixia didn't care at all about someone's facial expressions and just walked around the street with her little follower, just like taking a walk after eating.
The town of Odin seemed a bit depressing under the thick fog. The shops on both sides of the street were not open for business, and the doors of the houses that occasionally passed by were also closed. There was a hint of weirdness everywhere.
Although it was said to be during the Divine Festival, it didn't feel like a festival. There was no lively feeling everywhere. There were very few people seen, and those who saw them were all guards.
When the guards see the two of them, they will salute and say hello, and will also thoughtfully remind them that this place is not safe.
At this time, it was not Xiaobai who spoke, but Xin Zhixia.
"Okay, thank you for the reminder, we will go back later."
When Xiaobai heard Xia Zhi say these words for the third time, he still couldn't help but said: "We can't even see a living person, how can it be unsafe?"
The guard was stunned, and then explained with some embarrassment: "According to the town's public security management, no town residents will go out at this time, but it is inevitable that there will be people with bad intentions. This is just in case, My distinguished guests."
Xin Zhixia nodded seriously, then pulled Xiaobai away without saying a word.
Xiaobai couldn't help but raise his eyebrows when he saw someone wasn't surprised at all, "Have you known about it before?"
"Yeah, I'll come in the afternoon, and that's what they said."
Xin Zhixia has already asked similar questions, so when it comes to those guards, she adheres to the principle of not saying too much if she can.
Xiaobai curled his lips, but he was even more curious about what kind of help she wanted from him.
Soon he was dragged to the center of the town by Xia Zhi.
There is a pool of light and darkness in the center of the town, which is something that appears in the preface of the game copy.
Therefore, Xiaobai was not surprised to see the scene in front of him.
The sparkling pond seems to have been artificially divided into two halves with clear boundaries, one half is exceptionally clear, and the other half is turbid.
Under the thick fog, the moonlight seemed to be shrouded in gauze, making it difficult to shine onto the pond. Naturally, it cannot be seen clearly just relying on the artificial light sources around it.
However, what Xiaobai is more curious about is that there are many guards standing nearby.
He couldn't help but think about the content of the preface. What other secrets does this pool of light and darkness have?
Before he could finish thinking, Xia Zhi walked up to the guards very naturally, pointed at the light and dark pool, and asked politely: "Hello, I want to take the water from the pool here. Do you have a container?"
Because the two of them were so close, Xiao Bai could see the semi-clear water in the direction of Xia Zhi's finger.
"Yes, please wait. However, we only provide two per person."
After hearing Xia Zhi's words, the guard took out a test tube-like container from his belt bag, as well as a tool used to hold the test tubes.
It's four tubes.
Xiaobai saw it clearly.
Immediately afterwards, he saw Xia Zhi waving for him to pass.
After getting closer, he saw Xia Zhi leaning down to fill two tubes of pool water, and her trousers were wetted by the pool water. Then she stood up and handed the two tubes to him.
Xiaobai was stunned and looked at Xia Zhi, who was about to take the container. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he saw her eyes looking directly at him.
There was a faint light from the oil lamp in his eyes, and the stars in his eyes gave off a different light.
"Here you go, I'll put two more tubes in."
This was the last sentence Xiaobai heard Xia Zhi say before he realized that his mind was not clear.
After Xin Zhixia saw Xiaobai being bewitched, she reacted very quickly. While checking her bracelet to confirm the time, she handed the empty container and tools to Xiaobai, then pointed to the other side and said to Xiaobai: "You go over there. Give me two tubes."
Then she raised her eyes and watched Xiao Bai walking slowly over there. This time it was different from the afternoon. After the guard took one look at Xiao Bai, he allowed him to go over and fill the pond with water.
Xiaobai filled the pool water very quickly. After filling it, he came to her and reached out to hand the container and tools in his hand to her.
Extremely well-behaved and efficient.
Xin Zhixia only had time to see Xiaobai with dull eyes, and quickly took over the container and tools, putting the two tubes she had filled directly into his hands.
He took the two containers and tools and returned to the clear water.
What Xiaobai saw when he came back to his senses was that Xia Zhi stood up from the edge of the pool, patted his clothes, and then put the container into his pocket.
He was in a daze for a moment and didn't understand how he got the container.
Just after looking down and seeing the container, his attention was transferred to the container in his hand.
Xia Zhi's voice came slowly, with a hint of ridicule.
"Why do you look like you've never seen an item before? It's a one-star item. Although it's useless, I think it's still somewhat profitable. Now do me a favor and let's go find Frigga and Hodel."
Hearing this, Xiaobai was stunned and saw Xia Zhi handing the tool back to the guard, turning around and walking to another place.
He frowned, feeling a little weird.
Then he shook his head and thought about following Xia Zhi to help her, and put the container into his pocket.
Just when he lowered his head, he found that his trousers were wet.
He couldn't help but look at the distance between himself and the edge of the pool. No matter what, he thought that the splash caused by the pool water in the summer solstice dress was not enough to cause the pool water to splash on his pants.
Thinking of this, Xiaobai looked up at Xia Zhi's back, lost in thought, and clenched his hands involuntarily.
Xia Zhi's melodious voice came from ahead, with the same rising tone as when she first communicated with him.
"Follow me quickly, didn't you agree to do your sister a favor?"
Xiaobai looked down at his trousers again and replied lightly, "Okay."
