Fang Qingrou closed her eyes tightly, feeling the environment around her in a daze.
She was lying on a soft place at this time, covered with a thick quilt. However, even though the temperature in the quilt was very comfortable, Fang Qingrou could feel a coldness that penetrated into her bones.
She couldn't help curling up her body, and this movement affected the wounds on her body.
"Woo..." She let out a groan of pain unconsciously, and the scene before coma gradually emerged in Fang Qingrou's mind.
The white snow was gradually soaked with bright red blood. She was seriously injured at that time. Although she avoided the fatal place, the blood continued to flow.
This gradually blurred her consciousness, and she could not even clearly identify the direction. The culprit who caused such damage...
"!!"
A huge and ferocious horny blade, with a terrifying void atmosphere exuding from all over the body, it was a deformed monster.
The moment she saw the monster appear in her memory, Fang Qingrou suddenly woke up.
"Xiaorou?" A soft and soft voice came into Fang Qingrou's ears. Looking in the direction of the voice, she saw Lu Qing who was looking at her with a concerned look.
"Huh..." Fang Qingrou couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Lu Qing.
"Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere else?" Lu Qing looked at Fang Qingrou lying on the bed and asked.
During the time when Fang Qingrou was unconscious, she simply treated all the visible wounds on Fang Qingrou's body, but this did not mean that Fang Qingrou was fine. After all, some wounds could not be seen with the eyes.
"My head is a little dizzy..." Fang Qingrou said.
"Dizziness is normal. This is caused by excessive blood loss." Lu Qing explained while helping Fang Qingrou up.
"Yeah." Fang Qingrou nodded, and then she noticed that there was another person standing in the room. She looked at the thick armor that covered the other person's head, and after hesitating for a while, she asked: "Hao
Cute?”
"Well...it's me." Hao Meng took off her helmet, revealing her long golden hair. She looked at Fang Qingrou with her water-blue pupils and explained: "I work at Luo Bingzhen next door.
Militiamen, the deer we just met yesterday, Lu Qing.”
When she said Lu Qing's name, she was not used to it. She stuttered slightly and did not add any suffix. After giving Lu Qing a vague look and seeing that she had no reaction, Hao Meng breathed a sigh of relief silently.
"This is what happened..." Lu Qing explained to Fang Qingrou what happened last night, including what happened when he came back this morning and saw her seriously injured on the ground.
After explaining the situation last night to Fang Qingrou, she asked: "So, Xiaorou, what happened over there, and where is Char?"
"..."
Hearing Lu Qing's question, Fang Qingrou's expression froze. She was silent for a while, and then said: "Char...no, my master...is dead."
Fang Qingrou looked very uncomfortable, although she did not live with Charles for more than ten years as in the background, but had only entered the dream world for less than six months.
But in Chaer's eyes, she was still his familiar daughter. He taught Fang Qingrou strictly and conscientiously, and would often let off steam because of his doting, and he always loved to show the same smile as Fang Qingrou's father in real life.
"I don't know exactly what happened. I just remember that there was an avalanche and my master and I were resting in a cave."
"That is, when I was resting, the Void Earth Worm suddenly appeared. It emerged from the ground and stood between me and the master. Then there was an explosion at the entrance of the cave, and a large amount of rubble fell from above.
.”
"I had to run outside the cave, and then I met people from the Guiji Sect. It was only then that I realized that whether it was an avalanche or an explosion, it was those guys who caused it."
"In addition, there is also the Void Earth Insect, which was also deliberately released by the Guiji Sect as a bait to attract the master to come out for investigation."
"Based on what you just said, Xiaolu, we speculate that they deliberately attracted the master to kill him, probably because they were afraid of empowering the hunter's abilities."
The kingdom's authorized hunters are mainly responsible for field reconnaissance in each area. Whenever an abnormality is discovered, they must report it to the nearest city.
If we take action while Char is still alive, there will be a very high risk of Char escaping.
For ordinary people or soldiers in the town, surviving in the freezing snow is almost impossible, but for authorized hunters, this is just a daily occurrence.
In this case, he can pass the news to the city of Fremures, causing the Guiji Sect's plan to fail. After all, it takes a long time to transform the blood stone.
However, the people of the Guiji Sect probably never thought that Her Royal Highness the Princess, who was still undergoing [Psychic] training in the royal capital, would actually come to Fremures with the Pope, causing their plan to fail.
"Indeed, everything makes sense in this case, but why is that Void Earth Worm controlled by the Guiji Sect?" Lu Qing lowered her head slightly and thought in her heart.
She glanced at Fang Qingrou, who was a little sad, and opened her mouth, not knowing how to comfort her.
Tell her that people can't be resurrected after death, or that this is just a dream world and it's all fake?
Of course she couldn't say this kind of thing. She looked at Hao Meng aside, her cheeks turned red from holding back, and she opened her mouth several times but couldn't utter a single word.
"Alas." Lu Qing sighed in her heart, and simply sat next to Fang Qingrou, letting her rest her forehead on his shoulder.
"Although the place is not very big, it should be enough for you to take a rest." Lu Qing whispered.
"Dong dong dong..."
A slight knock on the door sounded at this time. Irene pushed the door open and was stunned for a moment when she saw that Fang Qingrou had woken up. Then she said: "Your Highness, Miss Hao Meng, Miss Fang Qingrou, I have already prepared dinner."
Already."
"Well, thank you for your hard work. We'll be there later." Lu Qing waved to Irene and said.
"I understand." Irene bowed slightly, then looked at Fang Qingrou and said, "Do you need me to inform His Majesty the Pope and Knight Myron about Miss Fang Qingrou's awakening?"
"Sorry to trouble you." Lu Qing arranged.
"Yes." Eileen resigned.
"The wounds on my body were not caused by void earth worms." Fang Qingrou said softly just after Irene left.
"Huh?" Lu Qing was stunned for a moment. If it wasn't caused by void earth worms, it could be those Guiji believers. However, the wounds on Fang Qingrou's body didn't look like they were caused by someone using a sharp weapon. Instead, they were
The ferocious exoskeleton of the Void Earth Worm is even closer.
Soon, Fang Qingrou answered Lu Qing's doubts.
"After I defeated the Guiji cultists who surrounded the entrance of the cave, I rested for a while. When my physical strength was almost restored, I used my big sword to dig through the gravel at the entrance...
.”
"That is to say, while we were digging, a roar that seemed both human and non-human, but also like some kind of monster, came from the cave..."
