Chapter 3261 Embark on a Journey (Three-Layer Pork Belly Fat Belly Cat)
At present, everything is stable in the border area, so for Ellie, the key point is to clear the other six mazes. She first chose the four mazes located in the territory of the Kingdom of Barbagia. Outside of the maze, investigating the situation here is also a top priority. There is almost no information from the border, so to collect inland intelligence, they can only rely on themselves.
Of course, generally speaking, it is basically impossible to cross here and return to the mainland.
The reason is very simple. The Tianlong Mountains are steep and long, blocking the road like a natural city wall. Only through the underground Earth Dragon Passage can they reach the mainland. As the only lifeline, this place is of course tightly sealed, almost out of the state of not allowed to enter.
So to put it bluntly, this place is more like a "exile place" on the border for people in the kingdom. No one would want to go to this kind of place, but after coming here, they don't even want to go back.
Of course, this is generally speaking.
Airi and the others naturally do not belong to ordinary people.
"Really, it's not bad to see the scenery like this."
Nana, who was sitting behind Ellie, embraced Ellie, and looked around excitedly at the same time. In front of her, Yue was curled up in Ellie's arms, squinting her eyes and leaning against her as if she was riding a couple's bicycle. Li's arms. On the other side, Xiaobai still closed his eyes tightly, sitting quietly on his big sword.
This trip to the kingdom, in order to avoid crowds of people, Ellie chose three people to act with her, Xiaobai, Nana and Yue.
There is still a need for someone to stay in Wanhua Valley, so neither Kurosaki Meya nor Xiao An can leave. Although Lala looks like Erha, if something really happens, I'm afraid I have to rely on her strength .
Strictly speaking, Mengmeng is actually more suitable for going out for investigative missions compared to the pure Nana, but because Ellie is really worried that Mengmeng will see through her identity, and it is not good for the spirit if she keeps tense , so in the end she chose Nana as her traveling companion.
As for Yue, needless to say, now it's all about where Ellie goes and where she goes.
The reason for choosing Xiaobai is simpler. Xiaobai is the only one among them who has the system and the magical skill of [Appraisal]. In addition, with the blessing of the system, her mental method practice speed is also ridiculously fast. Like now, in less than three months, Xiaobai not only transformed from a spider into a human form, but even learned to fly with a sword --- the others were so jealous.
It’s just that demon cultivators and human cultivators do not follow the same path, so the skills that Xiaobai has learned are basically the type of fairies, such as [Thread Manipulation] that can send spider silk from fingers, and the ability to stare at the target through the eyes. [Evil Eye] for cursing, [Poisonous Fusion] for manipulating toxins—well, basically this is a spider spirit.
When she comes back, Ellie will find her a cave called Pansi Cave, and then give her the title of Great Immortal Pansi.
The reason why Xiaobai closed her eyes was not because she couldn't control her eyes, on the contrary, it was also a kind of cultivation. There is a practice method in Buddhism called closed mouth meditation, which is to keep silent and exercise one's spiritual power. And Xiaobai's practice method is similar to closed mouth meditation, but the reason why she chooses to close her eyes is very simple.
This is a sociophobic patient.
To put it simply, it's not that Xiaobai doesn't understand other people's thoughts, nor does it mean that she doesn't want to respond, it's just that she has too much inner drama, which makes her reaction slow in front of others by several beats. This also made Xiaobai quite distressed, so Ellie gave her this suggestion, as long as you close your eyes and pretend that your eyes are inconvenient, then the chance of communicating with people will decrease. Anyway, as a monster, Xiaobai, even if you close your eyes The eyes can also "see" everything around clearly, so for her, closing her eyes is not only a kind of practice, but also can relax her spirit.
At least she can stay silently by the side and complain, so that she won't be involved in bad luck.
As for the environment in front of her, Nana is also very excited. After all, this is the first time she has come to this kind of fantasy world. Although she and Fangzheng have traveled to many places in the past, they are basically technologies that Nana can understand. world. As for the fantasy world of magic, she had only come into contact with it in the game. It was the first time for Nana to come to such a magical world in reality.
Soon, a group of four people flew over the Tianlong Mountains, which was almost a natural moat, and came to the other side. Looking around, here is a dense forest. Unlike the wilderness that looks like a doomsday wasteland, this place is more like a paradise full of life—oh, it doesn't seem to be the case.
"There seems to be someone over there."
Nana curiously stretched out her hand to point down, and looked in the direction of her finger. The group saw a carriage parked on the road not far below, but it didn't just stop there, on the contrary, A group of vicious-looking thieves are surrounding the carriage, aggressively fighting with the knights guarding the carriage.
Although the knight worked very hard, his fists were no match for his four hands. Soon the knights and servants guarding the carriage were killed by the robbers, and then these robbers came to the carriage with a sneer, opened the door and looked at the inside. man holds out his hand.
At the same time, the sword of light descended from the sky.
The unsuspecting robbers were instantly pierced by the lightsaber that fell from the sky. Before they even had time to figure out what happened, they still had a smug smile on their faces, and then fell to the ground like this.
Faced with this scene, the people in the carriage also seemed to be stunned. After a while, a lady dressed as a lady with a baby in her arms quietly poked her head out and looked outside——At this moment, She saw four beautiful girls falling from the sky and landing in front of her.
"Ma'am, you are not hurt."
Ellie sat on the broom, looking at the lady in front of her with a smile. The latter stared blankly at them, and seemed to realize it after a while, and nodded hastily.
"Thank you... Did you guys save me?"
"We just happened to be passing by."
The smile on Ellie's face didn't change at all, but in fact, it wasn't as simple as just passing by. As a prophecy mage, Ellie naturally also has the ability of Fang Zheng. On the surface, it seems that they just "coincidentally" rushed here, "coincidentally" encountered a carriage attacked by robbers, and "coincidentally" rescued the lady who was almost killed.
But in fact, this is also the result of Ellie's divination with the prophecy spell. She hopes to find a road that can allow the group to enter the Kingdom of Barbagia smoothly, and the prophecy spell points in this direction, so Ellie will take Let the others come over here.
Sure enough, the "hidden event" was triggered here.
"Anyway, thank you very much!"
Holding the baby tightly in her arms, the lady also bowed her head to thank the girls, but at this moment, Xiao Bai, who was standing at the back, suddenly trembled and took a step back. Sensing Xiaobai's strangeness, Ellie glanced at her curiously, then retracted her gaze, and looked at the lady in front of her again.
According to the lady in front of her, she was the wife of a lord and was on her way home, but unexpectedly, she would be attacked by thieves, and even her trusted servants were killed by thieves. If it weren't for the girls to rescue them, I'm afraid they would have escaped death—the next step is to ask the girls to escort her and the child home, and express their gratitude to them.
The girls didn't object to the lady's invitation. Yue could make whatever decision she wanted. Nana also liked this cute baby very much. Xiaobai didn't know why she didn't speak, so the group decided to escort her The lady and the child go home.
Ellie was in charge of driving the carriage, Xiaobai sat beside her, Yue sat in Ellie's arms, and Nana accompanied the lady and child in the carriage. As for their origins, Ellie had already told Nana Let’s say they are adventurers who travel around. Although Nana is innocent, she is not stupid, so she naturally knows how to conceal her identity.
And on the other side...
"What happened to you just now? Xiaobai?"
While driving the carriage along the road, Ellie asked telepathically, and upon hearing Ellie's inquiry, Xiaobai silently took out a note and handed it to Ellie. Ellie glanced at the note, only to see a few lines of information written on it.
【Human Vampire LV1】
【Name: Sophia Galen (Akiko Negishi)】
... What kind of information is this?
Looking at the information in front of her, Ellie was also taken aback. She didn't even look at the ability values and skills behind. In fact, this race alone made Ellie look confused.
How could it be human and vampire at the same time?
Having said that, the latter name is obviously not from this world, but Xiaobai's reaction seems to be different from before. You must know that in the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers, she also identified many traversers, but why did Xiaobai seem a little strange when facing this reincarnated person?
Soon, Xiaobai also responded telepathically.
[I have a little impression of this name, I think she may be my classmate in the previous life... 】
Good guy, no wonder, you are not the co-author who traveled here alone.
"You know each other?"
【I only remember this name. I don’t know her very well. Although she is a classmate from my previous life, I don’t have any impression of her. I just remember their names...】
Having said this, Xiaobai also became excited.
[Who told me that I was a marginalized person in my previous life? I don’t know anyone in the class, and they probably won’t remember me. By the way, what’s the matter with this race? It's both human and vampire, and her initial skills are so many! There are actually eight! When I was born there were only six of them! Also, this is reincarnated into the lord's house, which means she is now a noble lady? Why am I a spider born under the Great Maze...]
"Just ask Yue and you will know."
Listening to Xiaobai's complaints from telepathy, Ellie also silently rolled her eyes, then looked at Yue, and told her the result of Xiaobai's appraisal.
"You mean, that kid is a vampire?"
Hearing Ellie's words, Yue was also quite surprised.
"But the vampire family seems to have perished long ago."
According to the information obtained from the Volunteer Army, the vampire family had perished three hundred years ago, so what happened to the sudden appearance of the vampire?
Yue is also unclear about this, she told Ellie that although their family is called vampires, it is simply because they need to suck blood to maintain life and replenish magic power. It doesn't have the ability to transform others into vampires. If the baby is really a vampire, then it must be the blood of the parents or the descendants of the vampires in the previous generation, or the phenomenon of atavism like Yue that became a vampire. ………
It's just that according to Xiaobai's identification just now, that noble lady is just an ordinary human being. It's fine if her father is a vampire, but if it's a human being... Then if the baby is found to have blood of a vampire in the future, it might be another A family ethics drama of morality and the rule of law.
But that's none of Ellie's business.
Now Ellie just hopes to send the noble lady and her child back to the territory safely, and then use this matter to ask her husband, who is the lord, to help them get things like identity certificates, so that they can be in the The kingdom has successfully carried out its own plan.
Hope everything goes well.
