When he woke up in the morning, the first thing he saw was Xigna carefully looking down from the upper bunk. This made Surdak have the deepest feeling that he really should own a big castle-like house.
Otherwise, every time he and Selena lie down together, there will always be a little guy disrupting the situation after waking up, which makes Surdak feel a little embarrassed.
And every time Xigna sees those horrific scars on her body, she always looks frightened.
Surdak's memory of the origin of these scars is somewhat vague, and he can only see some fragmentary scenes in his memory: he was struggling in a sea of fire, and outside the sea of fire, a magician riding a magic harpoon
The wizard is chasing another female magician with a child. Every time the scene pauses here, there will be a deep sting in my heart.
The black tattoo of the goddess Celine on Selena's back doesn't always show up.
For example, right now, her back was white and smooth, showing off her soft curves when lying next to her.
Surdak told Selena these changes to her. Selena curled up in his arms like a lazy cat and whispered: "The goddess does not come and bend down all the time.
Of course there will be no tattoos on the back when the goddess is away..."
"Can it still be like this?" Surdak said with some surprise. He didn't expect that the magic patterns on her body could be hidden.
Selena and Xigna nodded in affirmation at the same time. Seeing the determined looks on their faces, Surdak was completely convinced. With a topic to talk about, at least the atmosphere would not be too embarrassing, so Surdak
Dak then said to Selina: "When the Dark Goddess comes, does she give you any abilities?"
Probably because of this intimate relationship, Selina blinked and said: "Actually, it is a very weak ability. It doesn't matter if you say it. It is like a verbal curse..."
"Language curse?" Surdak repeated in his mouth.
This reminded him of his 'Whisper of Death'. Isn't that a kind of verbal curse? He thought of the power of 'Whisper of Death', which seemed to be able to cause the enemy to die instantly on the battlefield, but so far he had not done anything about it.
Understand how to use 'Whisper of Death'.
Selena raised her upper body from the simple wooden bed, smiled slightly at Suldak and said: "It's almost the same, but it's of no use... Do you want to feel it?"
Surdak did not expect that Selena would make such a proposal, and asked again firmly: "Me? Are you going to cast that curse on me?"
Selena kept nodding and said: "It's okay, it's just a feeling anyway, it won't cause much damage. Sometimes when Xigna makes a mistake, I will cast that curse on her, but it's of no use now.
She is now more proficient than me..."
Hearing Selina say this, Surdak became even more curious about what kind of spell it was, but he caught another point in Selina's words, "You mean Xigna can do that too?"
A language curse, and also a believer of the Dark Goddess?"
Selina stared at Suldak with a strange look, as if to say: 'Is there something wrong with this?'
"Okay, what I want to say is what to believe in... You should let Selina choose." Surdak felt that Xigna should be given a better faith from an early age. After all, almost all people in the empire have
Belief in the Goddess of Liberty and the Goddess of Darkness have no place to survive in the Green Empire... If you don't like the Goddess of Liberty, it would be better to believe in the God of Magic or the Lord of Elements, such as the God of Fire Paglio and the God of Water Eva.
Celine, goddess of darkness.
"This is her choice." Selina glanced at Signa hiding in the upper bunk and said to Suldak.
Surdak could only sigh in his heart. He wanted to say something but didn't know how to say it. After all, it was difficult to say whether faith was right or wrong.
Selena put on a nightgown, then half-knelt on the bed, clasped her hands in front of her chest, and prayed devoutly to the goddess of darkness. This time, Surdak did not open the Eye of Reality and could not see what was around Selena.
Such a change, she felt that the portrait of the goddess in the well with one hand raised appeared again behind her. Then Selina's closed eyes suddenly opened, her light green pupils turned as dark as ink, and what she said in her mouth was just
Say a brief syllable:
'pain'
Selina stared at Suldak's left hand. Surdak felt as if his left hand had been hit by a blunt object. There was a pain from the joints, but there was no change in his hand.
, he tried clenching and stretching his fists, but there was no inconvenience at all. The only thing was a tolerable pain in his hands.
"Is this your language curse?" Surdak asked in shock.
"Well, it is said that this is a kind of secret word technique." Selina nodded and replied.
It seems that it is just as Selina said, it only has the function of punishment and is of no use in real battles. Surdak looked at Selina who was a little depressed, felt soft, and comforted her and said: "Actually, it is still
If it’s somewhat effective, it can at least prevent people from focusing on something.”
"But that's all, isn't it?" Selena forced out a forced smile. She knelt on the bed and used her hands to tuck her long chestnut hair behind her head and tie it into a ponytail. A breath of youth hit her face.
Come on, I feel like I am five or six years younger all of a sudden.
"This spell is indeed a bit weak." Surdak said truthfully.
"That's not a little bit, after all, I said it represents the goddess of darkness." Selena said casually as she got out of bed and started to prepare for the morning.
"Maybe it's just as you said - the Dark Goddess has forgotten you in this corner." Surdak said.
Selena squatted by the fireplace and was about to light the fire, and said casually: "Okay, I admit this."
…
After the Harvest Festival, Wall Village quickly recovered from the festive atmosphere. Most of the villagers had finished harvesting the wheat, and there were only a few wheat stacks left on the threshing floor.
The men in Wall Village began to prepare to rush to the sulfur mine in Pudu Mountain. This time, everyone had experience in living in Pudu Mountain and knew which supplies should be brought in more quantities and which supplies were not needed at all.
For example, water gathering scrolls are indispensable. There are no water sources around Pudu Mountain. Everyone relies entirely on water gathering scrolls for drinking water. The three water gathering scrolls that Surdak carried with him have all been used up. The villagers have used up the water gathering scrolls.
We only have the last one in our hands now. This kind of life magic scroll can only be bought in the magic shop in Helensa City.
The twenty-two pairs of leather boots and cotton masks prepared by Suldak also played a great role. In the environment of Pudu Mountain, the rocky ground in many places is hot, and some rocks are still flowing under the
Magma, wearing this kind of long leather boots can prevent your feet from being burned. The young people in the second echelon did not wear long leather boots. This time, several young people in Pudu Mountain had their feet burned to varying degrees.
The old village chief asked Surdak to bring a batch of sulfur to Hellanza City. After selling it, he can exchange it for some water-gathering scrolls, customize some thick-soled long leather boots, and a pickaxe. These necessary labor items still need to be prepared.
