Early in the morning, Hallumi, who had just woken up, was surprised to find a potted plant next to her. The blonde girl rubbed her sleepy eyes and took a closer look. She immediately cried out in excitement, disturbing her sleep. The first person she would argue with was, of course, her friend of the same age.
"Kaya, Kaya, look, it's Luigi. He's come back to me. "Taking care of the lovely flowers and plants was the girl's greatest hobby. Giving them names, calling them affectionately, and greeting them were her daily lessons. She was more attentive than learning magic.
Kaya, who had been woken up, was a little impatient. She reached out to push away the potted plant that was about to be stuffed into her face. But as soon as she reached out, her finger was bitten. The girl, who was in pain, perked up. She sprang up, no longer sleepy, and looked at her finger.
Kaya was a little helpless about the plant that had bitten her finger. She carefully peeled off the closed leaves of the Ghost Lantern Grass, not daring to hurt it at all. She remembered that she had hurt one of Hallumi's favorite plants for the same reason before, and the result was a cold war that lasted for three days. Since then, Kaya had consciously stayed away from these annoying little things.
Now, she was bitten again. Looking at her finger that had been corroded by acid, Kaya almost did what she did when she was a child. She would stuff the painful part into her mouth, and then even her mouth would suffer … She finally remembered how her teacher had taught her to deal with it. First, she used the Water Gathering Spell to condense a water ball to clean the wound. Then, where was the medicine?
While Kaya was thinking about where to put the medicine, the other girl, who was too excited, held the potted plant proudly and looked left and right, completely forgetting that her friend was hurt because of it. After muttering a few words, the girl with black hair and brown skin asked, "How can you be sure that the pot of Ghost Lantern Grass is Luigi?"
"Of course I remember. I made this pot myself. There's no way I'm wrong. "The girl looked at the somewhat withered potted plant with delight. But the Ghost Lantern Grass seemed to have undergone a metamorphosis, hiding an indescribable vitality. After being watered by clear water, it seemed to glow even more dazzlingly.
But compared to the blonde girl who was in a state of excitement, Kaya was much calmer. Her first question was why this potted plant had appeared here.
When he left Penta City, he only brought necessities and precious magic materials with him. They were even afraid that the cart would be too heavy for the mule that had yet to die heroically to pull it, so they gave up most of the money they had saved. Not to mention his and his companions' collections.
However, before the girl could raise her question, someone had already answered it. All of a sudden, the skeleton that was sitting quietly started to shake. Using a method that exceeded the mobility of a normal person's joints, the bones flipped over to the other side. After a series of clattering sounds, Fen said, "It seems that your teacher left last night to make a trip back. I wonder what's the situation in Wulian City? "
When the two girls heard this, their eyes lit up and they hurriedly searched for their teacher. After tossing and turning for most of the night, the man fell into a deep sleep beside the campfire. Last night, the continuous flashes in his vision posed a very important problem. How could he be sure that he was going in the right direction? This wasn't like a game, where there would be a mini-map radar to indicate one's location.
Originally, he thought that it would be an easy task. He just needed to fly in a straight line in midair. But several times, he didn't even know where he had run to. Fortunately, he could still find the direction to turn back and return to the environment he knew.
In the end, he found a way to lower his altitude in the air and flash along the path he had taken. Even so, his impression of the places he had walked was still vague. He ran in different directions several times and then turned back. After a lot of effort, he was finally able to run back to the camp he had set up last night.
At that time, he was completely exhausted. This wasn't because he had run out of magic power. The Flash spell without any protection, as he had expected, didn't consume much magic power. The reason why he felt so tired was because he had run in the wrong direction several times and was anxious. So after returning, he put the still alive Ghost Lantern Grass beside the girls and fell asleep beside the campfire with only ashes left.
However, the two excited girls didn't care about this. They rushed to their teacher's side and shook him wildly. Hallumi, in particular, did the standard thing. She almost stuffed the potted plant into someone's cheek.
Apart from the feeling of the world shaking, the most uncomfortable thing for the poor person was the hard object on his face. Before he could open his eyes to see clearly, he subconsciously reached out to push it away. When the Ghost Lantern Grass touched the sensing hairs on the leaf, it instinctively closed, as if an animal was viciously biting down. But the closed leaf didn't bite anything. Lin flashed three steps away in midair and landed heavily.
He had to wake up now …
Rubbing his aching buttocks, he woke up and looked around. Who had attacked him?
The Flash spell was designed to protect itself. As long as an object of a certain speed or a certain amount of energy approached, the Flash spell would activate. If the person was awake, they would be randomly teleported to any location in their field of vision. If they were asleep, they would be randomly teleported to a height of about one meter in the air.
The original intention of this design was to make use of such a fall to the ground to wake someone up. This was the first time he had experienced such a design, and the conclusion was terrible! It seemed that the design of this warning had to be rethought.
But if there were no bandits or magic beasts approaching, then who attacked him?
"Teacher! Teacher! " The two girls in front of him, their four eyes shining, said, "You went back to Wulian City, but what about the other things?"
It turned out that these two girls were anxious about their worthless little things. But not only did a certain someone agree with them, he could also understand their feelings. The dolls and models that he collected before he transmigrated were also worthless in the eyes of many people, but to him, they were treasures that couldn't be bought with money. Unfortunately, even if he agreed with the two girls' feelings, it didn't mean that things would go smoothly.
Besides, it seemed that he didn't hide the fact that he ran away and came back from that Lich. Although he couldn't see the skeleton's mood, from the dancing yellow flame, Lin Guifen was also curious about the situation in Wulian City. So he said,
"The house in the district is already abandoned. Vines are climbing everywhere, and weeds are growing everywhere. There were even thieves who visited. The valuable things that could be exchanged for money were all taken away. In short, that Ghost Lantern Grass was the only thing worth bringing back. Kaya, your treasures and the money that we didn't take away are all gone. So don't count on it. "
The truth was like a bolt from the blue. The black-haired, brown-skinned girl, who had always been calm and collected, looked like she was about to break down. She hid to the side sadly and squatted down to draw circles. This was an emotion that Kaya rarely showed. Even Hallumi, who had always been heartless, came to Kaya's side and comforted her.
The Lich didn't leave. She came in front of a certain someone and stood quietly. No one could tell what she wanted to do. Lin and the golden skeleton stared at each other for a while. It felt like when they were in high school, they went to look at a human skeleton model of the same size. It was just that back then, they were looking at plastic. The one in front of them was a shiny, unknown material.
Just as he was about to ask, the Lich's right arm suddenly stabbed out like a spear. Before Lin could react, he had already flashed to another open space.
Fen didn't chase after him. She just maintained the same posture and turned to look at the man who flashed away. The moment of silence and staring made a certain someone's scalp tingle. Lin asked guiltily, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me?"
"No, it's nothing." Fen threw away the original solemn atmosphere in the blink of an eye and returned to her usual tone. She said, "I just don't understand how to evaluate your strength now."
So that's the problem. Lin chuckled and said, "I don't really care about that kind of thing. I only care about whether my life-saving trump card is safe enough. Ever since I came to this world, I've always felt that my little life was like a candle in the wind that could be lost at any time. It wasn't until today that I felt a little more at ease. Life is too difficult. "
"Then … let's go slay a dragon together? Or kill gods and demons? "
"Hmm, did they piss you off?"
"No. I just have nothing better to do. "
"It's not easy for them to live until today. Think about how many of them have died at your hands. Do a good deed and don't just think about making trouble for them all day long. Besides, you're fierce enough, but not everyone is as capable as you are. The price of many things couldn't be shouldered by just one person alone. I don't want to live my life to be so exciting, I just want to live a little easier. Although coming to this world from my hometown is already exaggerated enough, not many people will have this kind of experience … No, maybe a lot … "
He once read a passage that the so-called history was fake except for the names of the people; the so-called novel was real except for the names of the people. If those transmigration stories were true, then the people of Earth in the world outside of Earth could be said to be living comfortably. Thinking about it seriously, the people of Earth were really scary.
However, compared to how many people of Earth dominated other worlds, Lin had something that he always wanted to ask but never found the opportunity to ask. Taking advantage of this, he finally asked, "Do you plan to keep this appearance forever?"
"Why? Looking down on my real appearance, you're just like those advanced people who only judge people by their appearance. Or, do you want it? "
Faced with the former demon king's implied flirting, a certain someone who was already used to it had a strong resistance. But today, he didn't want to complain back. Instead, he said seriously, "I'm not bad. But for the upcoming journey, it's not like everyone will be like those wood elves and easily accept your appearance. "
"That's really sad. Didn't you say that in your world, people shouldn't feel inferior about their appearance and accept themselves before others are willing to accept them? And those who only look at appearance and bully those who they think are ugly are the ones who are truly ugly on the inside, aren't they? "
Sister, regardless of what those self-righteous people think, what they say is at least targeted at humans. There aren't many who would say that zombies are cute …
From the corner of his eye, he saw the two girls looking at him. It was very similar to the fujoshis he had seen before transmigration. When they saw a certain couple, they began to have unrestrained delusions. Thinking of Kaya's special preferences, a certain someone could only look embarrassed and speechless. This was even more embarrassing than sleeping with Fen and being seen by them.
Thinking back, from the Sixth Sense, Love of Life and Death, A Chinese Ghost Story, Beauty and the Beast, Snow White, the people of Earth were really scary …
