Even though the morning sun has fallen on the sea, in Angelina's heart, the world is still gray and bleak.
Wearing only a linen skirt, she was sitting on a deserted beach with her legs crossed, watching the ebb and flow of the tide in front of her. She could vaguely see the shadow of the ship in the distance on the sea, and she was speechless.
The only sounds in the air were the splashing waves and the chirping of early seagulls.
"This is the first time this week."
Angelina felt like she was falling into an abyss at this moment.
"Fourth or fifth time?"
The cool sea breeze blew up the burgundy hair on her forehead. Although her body had successfully produced the air flow in her body after years of training and the guidance of the master, with the help of the air flow, she was no longer afraid of the severe cold.
, but her heart is still heavy and cold at the moment.
Why is this happening?
She wanted to ask, but she didn't even have anyone to talk to.
The mysterious master had already left long ago after the air flow emerged from her body.
And Garro, Floret and the others were too young, and Lin and Sissy were girls. They would definitely not know what stupid things they would do if they knew about it.
Just like last time, Lin secretly went to Green Pine Lane to sell herbal medicine. Is that a place where she can go? Although she didn't tell the noble's real name, it was still very dangerous. If she was really...
Angelina, or the girl who was called Briana in front of Woody, no longer dared to think about it any more.
The thoughts in her mind were like rocks on the beach, being beaten by waves one after another, almost becoming a mess.
Since the injury, I have had strange dreams every night.
Then when she woke up, she found that she was not in the bed inside the house, but woke up on a random ground outside. This was a strange phenomenon.
Finally, she discovered that her heart was constantly growing a longing for the sea. This feeling was almost driving her crazy these days, but she could not mention it to anyone.
And the first time she woke up, she was in an alley a hundred meters away from the house, and then it became farther and farther away, until now she was only a few hundred meters away from the sea.
When she woke up in the alley, she was startled. The help of "qi" in her body made her extremely sensitive to the ten meters around her. Someone tried to sneak up on her, but she was knocked to the ground with her bare hands and one hand when she opened her eyes.
Although she has been doing this for a long time, since the attack at sea, there have been many people who want to laugh at her, but the most difficult days are over, and her body is recovering quickly, even if she only has one now
Her hands did not affect her ability to beat those guys into a joke, but after beating them that day, looking at the blood at the corners of their mouths, she actually had the urge to bite them...
"By the gods! Is there a demon living inside me?"
The changes in her body had caused Angelina to have uncontrollable thoughts one after another in her mind. She was already doubting herself at this moment.
Although the master has taught her countless times, she should be calm and calm when encountering problems, not be reckless, and wait until the situation becomes impossible to express her true feelings with violence.
But this was the first time Angelina found herself so powerless. Even if her wrist was bitten off before, she had never been so desperate.
After all, she is just a girl who has just turned 17 years old. Although under the guidance of her "O" master who claims to be the Oriental Wanderer, her vision and outlook are much better than ordinary people, even professionals.
of.
But encountering such a supernatural event still gave rise to some thoughts and fears that she shouldn't have.
Faced with supernatural forces, she had mostly dealt with dock sailors and mercenaries since she was a child. She felt like she was back when she was a child, sitting alone in a broken wooden basin and drifting in the sea.
Isolated and helpless.
But just when Angelina was helpless, she felt someone approaching and heard footsteps, and the footsteps came from her left side. Angelina, who grew up on the beach in Palermo,
Naturally, we know that the end of the cliff is a dead end road, and there is no port suitable for anchoring on this coastline. There are no ships docking there...
So, out of curiosity, she raised her head and looked up, and saw a man in hunting attire walking from the beach path. He had long black hair, and carried two long steel swords behind his back.
There was a bag containing something unknown, but judging from the fishy smell carried by the sea breeze, it should be some kind of fish parts.
And relying on the super long sight distance given to her by "Qi", Angelena found that his face was particularly young, with snake-like eyes that were very different from ordinary people, and he looked very untouchable.
The most important thing is that she seems to know this person.
That noble boy that Lin brought to buy herbal medicine!
Although he had changed into an adventurer's attire and his face had become thinner, the seemingly gentle but lonely temperament exuded by him was exactly the same as what he had seen in the alley that day - this was Angelet
Another wonderful use of Na on the "qi" in the body.
It's just that his current clothes look more like the same world as hers, a black hunting jacket and breeches made of simple leather, instead of a well-dressed, straight tuxedo and white shirt.
For a time, two images of this young man immediately swirled in Angelina's mind. He seemed to be shrouded in a mysterious veil, which made people want to find out.
However, she did not rush up to say hello, but turned her head in time before the young man cast a gaze on her.
Having grown up in a slum, she understands that knowing too much about some things does no good.
And it is precisely her isolation from the world, her neutral attitude of never saying anything and taking sides, that is one of the reasons why she can remain safe among gangs even if her force is not too high in the underworld.
…
Woody noticed it when the burgundy-haired girl Brina, whom he had met once, cast his eyes for the first time. He subconsciously wanted to stop, but he felt that even if Weilando was here, he would not be able to stop.
He may not be able to recognize him, not to mention that his pupils have changed and he is far away, so he shouldn't be able to recognize him.
Therefore, Woody's pace remained unchanged, but he chose the path that could bypass Brianna's location farthest.
Woody was not interested in asking why she was at the beach.
Now he just wants to go home and take a good rest.
Although the Witcher's combat effectiveness would not be affected even if he stayed up all day and night, he still felt tired after fishing all night on the coast.
He needs to adjust his mentality.
After all, I was busy until midnight, and except for the first two groups, which went smoothly, the remaining few hours without waiting for a sahuagin was simply too much torment.
However, compared to the 967 experience points on the panel at that time, the latter suffered even more than the former - this was also the reason that supported him until dawn.
Fortunately, just before dawn, the last bit of shark blood attracted two lone sahuagin, which pushed Woody's accumulated experience points past the 1,000-point mark.
He originally wanted to go back the same way after gaining enough experience, but suddenly he remembered that there were still some things he had not bought. He happened to be located far away from the pier entering the city, so he thought that he could get there in one step and clean up the materials on his hands.
Then we followed this long, desolate coastline and headed towards the dock area in the northwest.
Anyway, he still carries the mark of the Edith family on his body, so he will definitely be fine entering the city. Even if he will be questioned when he returns to the manor, Woody has already prepared a plan in his mind to deal with it.
But before leaving, Woody took one last look at the location of the burgundy girl named Briana. The girl still had her back to him, and he couldn't see the front, only the back.
Her sitting posture is very straight, and her entire back looks toned and well-proportioned. Although her waist is slender and can only be grasped, but with her slightly wider shoulders and wheat-colored skin, she looks full of strength.
Damn it, how could I associate a sense of power with her.
Woody shook his head secretly.
However, Brianna is indeed the girl with the best figure and the healthiest figure he has ever seen. Unlike Weilando, who is delicate and cute, it is more appropriate to describe her as heroic.
pity……
He saw the girl's empty sleeves and felt a little regretful.
Although if the arm is broken, there is no way to restore it, but the magic that can regenerate the limb is definitely not something that a girl born in a slum can afford.
——The four-ring magic "Restoration".
At the very least, they are second-level professionals and aboriginals with the level 8 priest template, and these have generally become bishops of a small city.
As for the price, it won't be a problem to empty out a small noble's working capital.
For poor people, even a potion to treat minor injuries that sells for twenty gold coins a time is sometimes worse than death, let alone a fourth-ring spell calculated in units of thousands.
This is why most players just choose to start over after dying once without trying to resurrect. Price is the main factor.
Suffering is a common thing in life, but perhaps I love this girl more.
Because, just when Woody was about to leave here, he heard the child's cry, and the girl behind him immediately set off after hearing the cry.
Obviously, this was calling her.
However, Woody, whose perception reached 16 points, heard clearly that the child was not calling Briana.
But "Sister Angelina!"
This should be the voice of the child hiding behind the wall that day.
However, Woody discovered a more serious thing, that is, when he heard the child's voice from his position, he could hear it very clearly with his 16-point perception.
And what does this girl rely on?
You know, her location is a full fifty or sixty meters away from him.
But when the girl flew past him, she felt the mysterious aura exuding from Angelena, who was only a figure from behind.
Only then did Woody get to know this fit girl.
He turned out to be a warrior monk.
But it's not his fault. Apart from specific attire, such as the simple plain cloth clothes of the monastery, or the white old clothes, the monks are not very recognizable.
There is even a monk with an advanced Mountain Fist, which, like the ascetic, does not even wear any weapons or armor, and its physical strength alone can rival that of a giant dragon in its prime.
Woody remembered that someone once used the phrase "if you are still if you are not careful, if you move, the sky will be tilted" to describe the profession of monk.
After all, the characteristic of monks is that they have no special characteristics. They wear simple clothes and are inconspicuous among the people. Only when they actually do it, others will be surprised to find that they are actually professionals.
Just like the girl with long burgundy hair today.
Unless you see her actually taking action or taking action, it would be difficult to associate her with those ascetic monks.
However, Woody remembered that there were no warrior monk monasteries in the south. Their activities could only be seen in the bitter cold land of the north and the oases of the death desert east of the southern continent.
Does it seem like he was taught by a wandering monk?
Woody's mind turned to several names of monks who were once famous in the south of Asenland.
If they were ascetics, then it would make sense. After all, they were the only ones who would choose to leave the monastery and go to various parts of the mainland.
Most monks still like to live near the monastery and occasionally drive away evil.
In the life-and-death battle in the Year of Darkness, it was a seemingly inconspicuous old man who blocked most of the Corruption Mother Tree's attacks in the later stages, buying players a lot of time to break through the plane passage blocked by it.
He was a legendary monk active in the Northland before, and you would never see him in the city.
Only when you go to the endless ice fields or the rugged and steep mountain ridges can you see his figure walking around this land like a pilgrim.
At that time, many monks and even players from other professions wanted to meet him, because he would give anyone who met him a random trial.
If you succeed in the trial, you will gain an extraordinary feat.
What Woody remembers most is a feat that someone posted on the forum.
——"Clarity of the Six Senses" (Extraordinary): After specific training, the monk has extremely sharp six senses, permanently increasing his own perception value by 2 points (maximum 25 points). When you are blind, deafened or asleep
It will not affect your perception of the surroundings, and any invisible creatures, illusions, and illusions that need to be successfully cast in front of you need to add an additional 35 points to the judgment value.
"The eyes are deceiving your vision, and the nose is deceiving your sense of smell... Your five senses are deceived, but your heart will not deceive you. Falsehood is always falsehood. Watch out, falsehood cannot come true! - Gray Robe Wu
The monk said to his disciple, and when he closed his eyes and raised his hands, the illusion disappeared."
This is a feat coveted by many monks or other professions that rely on perception for spellcasting.
However, the conditions for obtaining it are very demanding. Not only do they need to defeat opponents of the same level as themselves with weak five senses, but they also require the player to maintain a weak five senses state for a long time, during which they must survive alone in the wild for at least two weeks.
When Woody saw this specialty, he admired the perseverance of those who obtained this specialty. After all, if it were him, he might not be able to survive the trial safely.
Woody saw that the girl seemed to be in trouble, and Woody, who was curious about her profession, naturally followed her quickly.
After all, she was going in the same direction as him. If he didn't want to follow her, it was okay for him to leave midway.
Along the way, Woody relied on his 16 points of perception to easily hear the brief exchange of information between the monk girl and the child.
Then we understand why this kid named Garro found Angelina.
Because the little girl Noa who sold him herbal medicine last time was also named Lin.
She's gone!
The reason was that last night, the slums suffered a sudden attack from undersea creatures. A group of sahuagins dived into the southern area through the canal locks. After landing ashore, they killed and took away many humans.
The place where the little girl Lin and the others lived was also found by the sahuagin.
It was precisely because she was protecting her younger siblings that she lured the sahuagin away on her own, and she has not come back until now.
The boy's sobbing explanation and the girl's comfort spread to Woody's ears along the wind.
His mind flashed through the little blond girl he had seen in Green Pine Lane a few days ago. She was thin and small, but her eyes were very bright and focused.
Although she looked brave on the outside, she was very timid on the inside. After getting on his carriage, she looked left and right. He knew she was looking for an escape route, just like a hamster that had just been moved to a new cage. It was normal and understandable to be wary.
It wasn't until Woody took the initiative to chat about her sister later that the little girl let down a little bit of her vigilance and revealed her unique innocence and coquettishness.
And she has a beautiful smile, with two small dimples.
This is a girl who thinks about her family...
It shouldn't be like this.
Thinking of this, he was originally hesitant and decided to go over and have a look.
