Chapter 1835 (*?▽?*) I Don’t Want to Ride a Bull...
As the sky was getting dark, and the other party had stopped her, Annie had no choice but to think about it, and decided to turn back with the strange young lady riding the bull, and returned to the relatively clean room on the side of the Houwang Chapel. But the roof is dilapidated, but there is still a small jumping rune in the middle where it temporarily rests.
"Huh?"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"Is that the blessing point you just mentioned?"
?'?'?
Unexpectedly, there was such a strange thing in this dilapidated house. Of course, Annie trotted over immediately, and curiously put her face next to the so-called "blessing point" emitting faint fluorescence and heat. And stretched out his fingers to study carefully.
"strangeness……"
(ー`′ー)
"It looks like some kind of activated application of runes and rules?"
(°-°〃)
First, she stretched out her hand and touched it lightly without worrying about being hurt at all, and soon, Anne roughly knew some functions of this so-called 'blessing point'.
Anyway, it's nothing more than using runes and world rules to strengthen and instill energy on the user, and that's the official reason for the so-called 'blessing'?
However, this kind of thing is of no use to Annie!
So, after finishing the research, she immediately put away her hands, and watched the young lady wearing a cloak get off the cow and slowly walked to the opposite side of her, and then the two sides were separated by the so-called 'blessing point 'Looked at each other.
"You just said..."
"Runes and rules?"
"interesting!"
"It seems that the stargazers have a relatively thorough understanding of the world..."
"but……"
"I saw it too, you seem to be able to use it?"
The little sister first looked at Annie for a while, and then slowly, directly on the dirty floor, knelt down and sat down like that. After knowing that Annie was standing at the same level, she asked curiously. road.
"Is it hard to use it?"
(??ˇ?ˇ??)
"What's so strange about that?"
(ˉ▽ ̄~)cut~~
Annie was a little puzzled, and after blinking, she turned her head and glanced at the other party's face hidden in the cloak.
Compared with giving blessings, she is obviously more curious about the other party's face hidden in the hood of the cloak now.
"That's right."
"It seems……"
"The person I'm looking for today is indeed you..."
After a while of silence, the strange woman nodded again.
Of course, what she may never know is that the person she was looking for and the person she wanted to revive against certain principles had already been set on fire by Anne in a 'kind way' before she appeared here Turned into ashes, and what's more, it's still the kind that can't be saved again?
But fortunately, the other party didn't know about that matter, and Anne also didn't take such small things to heart.
"??"
く(^_?)ゝ
"The person you are looking for? But, what are you looking for?"
(???.???)????
Annie blinked, then took a step back, not continuing to play with the so-called 'blessing point' that had become a bit boring.
"..."
"You, you don't seem to know what happened?"
After hesitating for a while, the woman hidden in the cloak thought about it, and then suddenly asked this question.
"??"
(???.???)????
"what do you know?"
∑('△')? !
Anne said that she had no idea what the other party was talking about!
Anyway, what the other party said was a little weird and nagging, as if she was not on the same channel at all.
"Yeah……"
"It seems that you really don't know, and besides, you don't have a witch by your side?"
"Then let me analyze it for you..."
Hear Anne's words,
The strange woman nodded first, then shook her head, and finally seemed to be sure of something.
"Witch?"
('?_?`)
"Why do people have witches with them?"
く(^_?)ゝ
Annie pondered in a low voice, and her mind was full of question marks.
Because, witch or something, it is completely unnecessary, after all, she can be said to be a witch, and ah, it is still the most most most most most most most most most most most most most... ) the most powerful kind?
As for the other witches...
Inside the door of the Hou Wang Chapel at the back, there is still a dead one against the wall behind the door, and Anne seems to have forgotten to burn it just now?
But it doesn't matter whether it is burned or not. Anyway, it is dead. Whether it is set on fire and turned into energy and gas, or eaten by wild wolves and dogs and turned into mud, there is not much difference. Anyway, All must enter the inner circulation of this planet.
(…)
(● ̄? ̄●)
"Is such that……"
However, that strange woman didn't pay attention to Anne's muttering, and just talked about it on her own.
It turned out that people in the exiled land learned such a message through the fallen leaves of the golden tree:
On the other side of this fog, in the borderlands, the great Elden Circle has been broken, the 'Eternal Queen' Malika has disappeared, the night of the black knife plot, 'Golden' Godwin was the first to lose his life, Malika's son, half The gods have the fragments of Elden's Circle.
Then, the shard war broke out!
At the end of the war that lasted for countless years and left countless lives devastated and without a king, Supreme Will exiled them...
Then, the long-lost blessing returned to the faded people again, and issued a strong call to the faded people. The Supreme Will urgently needs the faded people to move towards the other end of the fog and reach the end of the fog as soon as possible. In the junction, go under the golden tree, meet the great Elden Ring, and become the new Elden King!
"..."
After slowly repeating the story, the woman didn't speak any more, but watched and observed Annie silently through the cloak hood that covered half of her face, and just stared at Annie's every move, not knowing what she was thinking. What.
"oh!"
(⊙o⊙*)
"The story is nice, and then?"
(‘???`)
Anne doesn't care about the fight between demigods and true gods for family property anyway, so she continued to ask directly after listening.
"..."
The woman still didn't speak, but reached out her hand silently, took off the hood on her head and revealed her pretty face with short brown-red hair and a delicate face.
but……
I don't know what's going on, but at this time, her left eye is actually closed?
Or can it be said that her left eye has been closed all the time, and only one right eye is open, and it is looking at Annie?
And, on the lid of the closed left eye, there is actually a strange tattoo or symbol in the shape of a three-fingered claw?
"Huh?"
!(;?o?)o
"Miss, are your eyes injured?"
|??ω?`)
"Do you want someone to help you treat it?"
(*^▽^*)
Seeing that the other party was obviously beautiful, but his left eye was closed, he thought that the other party was the injured Annie, so he asked carelessly and kindly.
"Ah!"
"Those who came through the fog..."
"My name is Melina..."
It's a pity that the woman didn't talk to Annie, nor did she explain her own left eye. She just stared at Annie for a long time with her open right eye, and realized that she couldn't see through it. Slowly began to introduce himself.
"oh!"
(?ω?)
"It's Anne, Anne Hastur!"
(????-)?
Although the other party was a little weird, Annie said her name generously without thinking too much.
"Annie?"
"very good……"
"Well, I think..."
"Negotiate a condition with you!"
After introducing each other, in order to prevent Anne from bringing the topic to some irrelevant matters, Melina hastily opened her mouth to formally state her intention of coming.
"condition?"
(*ˉ?ˉ*;)
"It's good, why do people want to negotiate terms with you?"
(゜-゜)
Annie was just a little baffled, and didn't understand what the other party meant by saying that suddenly.
"Annie..."
"Do you know the Finger Witch?"
Melinda was not annoyed when she saw that Annie was so unreasonable, didn't follow the routine and answered her words, she just pondered for a while, and then continued to ask slowly.
"The Finger Witch?"
(?_?)ヾ
"I do not know……"
~(?◇?)
Annie shook her head blankly, indicating that she really didn't know about it.
Anyway, she knew about the witch's fingers. In the King's Chapel, the dead witch had ten fingers, and Queen Anne also had ten.
"They refer to those who serve 'Two Fingers', help and guide faded people like you."
"but……"
"I see, you don't have a witch by your side..."
Melinda was as careful as possible to bring the topic to the point, which was a major event for her to come here tonight, but she couldn't be careless in the slightest.
"!!"
(;¬_¬)
"But, he is not a fader!"
(;? д?)
"Besides, people don't need guidance, and they don't even need witches!"
('~';)
Anne said she was a powerful witch herself!
Furthermore, this is not the first time she has been called a 'faded person', just now the guy who was hacked to death by her called it that way, and the dead witch seems to have written similar words on the ground , and now it’s better, Miss Melinda in front of her, the other party has said it repeatedly several times, which makes her a little strange.
"Yeah?"
"Are you sure you don't need guidance?"
Melina asked back.
"do not worry."
"If possible, I can take their place..."
Soon, without waiting for Annie's answer, Melina threw out her olive branch in a hurry, as if she couldn't wait.
"??"
(???.???)????
"But what can you do?"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"Can you cook something delicious?"
(=^▽^=)
Blinking, Annie, who was about to refuse, thought about it for a while, then suddenly blinked and asked expectantly with a smile.
If the other party knows how to cook that kind of delicious food, maybe Her Lady Queen Anne can be merciful and ask the other party to follow her to 'guidance' and prepare delicious food for her every day?
"this……"
"I won't!"
After a moment of hesitation, Melina finally shook her head honestly, saying that she was not good at making food suitable for little girls.
"That!"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"Did you know there's good food there?"
ヾ(^▽^*)))
Annie hurriedly asked again.
It doesn't matter if you can't cook, Annie doesn't know how to cook anyway, and ah, she has all kinds of delicious food, and she can't finish it in a while, as long as the other party can lead the way, she can also cook slowly by herself. Go find something good that suits her taste.
"I……"
"have no idea……"
Opening her mouth, Melina lowered half the lid of her open eye, and shook her head once more obediently.
"ah?"
(^~^;)
"That……"
(°-°〃)
"Then do you know where there is fun?"
?(????????)?
First she frowned her cute little brows, and after thinking for a while with her lips pursed, Annie hurriedly asked the last question with some hope.
"..."
Melina didn't answer, just lowered her head.
Obviously, her expressions and movements have already told Annie that she doesn't know what's interesting in this world now, and even, she has never really cared about that kind of thing.
All she cares about is the life and death of this world, such as the Golden Rule, Elden's Ring, The Faded One, the Royal City, and Elden's King, etc.!
As for other things, those things are not important to her.
"Really!"
(??ˇεˇ??)
"I don't know, I don't know, why do people want your guidance?"
(ˉ▽ ̄~)cut~~
Holding her arms, Annie sat down on a brick beside her with some disdain and angrily. At the same time, she pouted and complained with disgust on her face.
"I……"
"I can guide you to use blessing points and turn the runes you collect into your power!"
"Make you stronger?"
Melina raised her head suddenly, and said firmly, indicating that she was not useless.
"strength?"
(ー`′ー)
"But, people don't want power..."
('?︵?`)
"People only want delicious and fun food!"
(??ˇ?ˇ??)
That's right, this is the main purpose of Annie coming to this world!
At the same time, it is also the main purpose of her going to any world. As for power or something, she has never really pursued that kind of thing!
You know, she captured the ferocious shadow bear alive at the age of two, burned the domineering old dragon to death at the age of three, broke through to the hero level at the age of five, and approached the demigod at the age of eight, and now she is only a little over eight years old. There are invincible fighters in many planes all over the universe, will she be the kind of boring guy who needs power?
(…)
(¬?¬.)
Moreover, the guy in front of her doesn't look very strong, just mediocre, and she probably can't even beat those little apprentices of Her Lady Queen Anne, so why does she need the other party to guide her and get that worthless thing? strength?
"But……"
"As long as you are still demanding Elden's ring, this matter will definitely help you."
"Could it be..."
"Don't you want to be King Elden?"
Melina spoke hastily, and her tone became a little bit hasty, but only a little bit, because her expression was still not too turbulent.
"King Elden?"
(?~?)
"Return the magic ring?"
???(__*)??
Annie suddenly remembered, what is that 'Eldon', she seemed to have seen it in front of the dead witch before, it seemed that the witch also wrote such a passage?
"But people are not interested!"
(?╭╮?)
Then, Annie spoke her truest thoughts directly without any politeness.
Think about it, too, "Elden's Circle of Law" or something, that kind of thing can't be delicious!
As for the King of Elden, she is even more uncommon!
Because, she is a queen herself, and ah, she is also the queen and owner of many worlds and planes at the same time. How can she be interested in this broken world in the corner where the rules have not yet been perfected?
"..."
Melina was silent.
Obviously, she had been planning for a long time, but she never thought that she would meet a 'faded person' like Annie. Although the other party was very powerful, he came here and was found by her, but in the end...
The negotiations between the two parties seem to be somewhat unsatisfactory?
"Don't you think about it?"
As a last resort, after hesitating for a long time, Melina asked again.
"Not consider!"
o('^')o
Annie crossed her arms, as if she didn't want to talk, and she didn't want to give the other party a chance.
"..."
Seeing that Anne still looked reluctant, Melina was a little dumbfounded.
However, she was unwilling to back down or leave her.
After all, what she just saw, Annie used a spell to chop the descendant of the 'arthropod' noble, no matter in terms of potential or power, she is undoubtedly very great, she firmly believes that the little girl in front of her is the person she is looking for, so, say Don't want to give up easily.
"In short..."
"I still hope you can take me to the foot of the golden tree..."
"correct!"
"This ring is for you..."
So, after being silent for a while, Melina reached out and took out a ring.
"??"
!!!∑(?Д?ノ)ノ
"Why do you want to give someone something?"
('~`●)
"Then, what's the use of it?"
(???.???)????
After looking at it, although she was a little curious, Annie didn't reach out to pick it up.
"It's the 'Spirited Horse Whistle'."
"When you need to go on a long journey, you can try to blow it and summon the soul of this steed named 'Toret'."
"You do not know?"
"It was Torret who carried me to find you, it chose you..."
Saying that, Melina waved her hand, and the 'greede horse' not far behind her instantly turned into a flash of light and entered the ring.
"!!"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"It turns out that 'Toret' is it?"
(*^▽^*)
"But forget it!"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
"I don't want to ride a bull!"
(*?▽?*)
Without even thinking about it, Annie quickly waved her hand and rejected the other party with a smile.
Because, about the mount, Annie has Tibbers the bear, and riding a bear is much more majestic and comfortable than riding a horse, it is comfortable and soft!
Moreover, Tibbers would help her fight and bite when she didn't want to do it or when she didn't have time to sleep. Compared to that, what was the use of the other side's ugly, stupid cow?
(…)
(● ̄(?) ̄●)
As for long-distance movement, let alone, wouldn't it be nice for Her Lady Queen Anne to directly use portals or other teleportation spells?
Besides, they have only just met each other, and they are not very familiar with each other, why does the other party want to court her so quickly?
Anyway, she won't be fooled like some idiots!
"..."
Melina's outstretched hand froze, her face and the open right eye were full of helplessness, and of course, there was also that look of being at a loss, not knowing what to say.
Because, the little girl in front of her doesn't seem to play the cards according to the routine at all. Those vocabulary that she has brewed before, are not even used at this moment?
