When I used the Town Return Scroll behind Rias's back, the system prompted: You cannot use the Town Return Scroll because you are wanted by Silvermoon City.
I'm so faint that I can't even return to the city, so why don't I have to walk back?
Looking at the misty forest in front of me, I cursed in my heart: Doesn’t this have to be traveled through again?
There is no other way, just keep your head down and run!
When I entered the misty forest, the thick white mist began to gather, and followed me thicker and thicker. Finally, the floating ghosts seemed to come out of the thick fog, following me with claws and teeth.
Rias looked back and shouted in surprise: "Ah, the ghost is here!"
She screamed and moved, and I almost caught her and made her fall.
"I know, don't move! I didn't know it was hard for you to carry it now!" I complained and shouted, looking back, I saw that the floating ghost had indeed taken shape.
This floating ghost has no way to fight and can only run. But after all, I am carrying Rias on my back, and Rias is half petrified after all, so the weight is not ordinary. Although the settings in the game are not that realistic, but
It would be unreasonable to float on the water with a stone statue on your back.
I simply took off my heavy armor and just wore a pair of underwear.
Rias patted my shoulder again and shouted: "Ah, you stinky pervert, what are you doing?"
I ignored her, but pushed her butt up with my hands, "Lower the weight! Otherwise, you won't be able to run fast!"
I said this, and although Rias was embarrassed, she didn't say anything.
She is still wearing a thin priest's robe on her upper body. Because her lower body is petrified, she is holding my neck tightly against my back. I didn't feel anything when wearing heavy armor before, but after taking it off, I seem to be able to feel it.
Her body felt warm against my back.
I don’t know if I’m overthinking it, or if the game is really so realistic.
After taking off the heavy armor, my speed is indeed a little faster, but compared with the floating ghosts that have no entity in the first place, they are still slow.
"They're catching up! What to do?" Rias shouted eagerly.
I was almost choked by Rias's excitement, "You use your skills to attack them!" Her sister, Lilith, attacked very fiercely. The skeleton monsters at levels 50 and 60 all used one attack at a time.
As a younger sister, it shouldn't be too bad.
But Rias cried sadly: "I can't!"
"You don't know how?" This is too funny. They are NPCs after all. How can there be such a big gap? "Then what do you know?"
"I can only resurrect and replenish blood!" Rias said with a cry, "I thought being a priest was safe and I didn't have to leave the city!"
No wonder she became a little priest in Xinshou Village, that's why.
Compared with Lilith, Rias is indeed far behind. It would be great if she were here.
I couldn't help but speed up my pace, but I still couldn't get rid of the approach of the floating ghosts, and more and more floating ghosts condensed out of the white mist, forming a huge army of ghosts following me.
I couldn't help but feel a tremor in my heart, it seems like I'm going to hang here today!
The first floating ghost caught up with me at this time and was already on par with me. Right next to me, she stretched out her thin and slender arms and grabbed me.
Rias screamed, burying her head in my neck with her eyes closed, it felt weird.
I frowned and prepared to move aside, but the floating ghost suddenly let out a sharp wail, as if it had seen something terrifying, and suddenly turned around and ran away, turning into a wisp of white smoke again.
.
"What's wrong?" Rias opened her eyes and asked confusedly.
Immediately afterwards, all the floating ghosts passing by me screamed as if they were electrocuted, turned into smoke again, and disappeared into the mist.
I stopped curiously, and the floating ghosts behind me flew toward me one after another like moths to a flame, and then disappeared into smoke one after another.
This situation is as if Rias or I have a treasure that they are extremely afraid of.
The floating ghosts eventually disappeared, and I didn't even gain any experience.
Rias and I looked at each other, both trying to get some information from each other's eyes, but unfortunately we didn't know what happened.
Carefully recalling what happened along the way, I suddenly realized that it was probably the dark dragon's aura that had blocked these floating ghosts. After all, I had carried Rias on my back before, but I was still embarrassed to be chased by the floating ghosts, and then I met her.
The Dark Dragon Krasus gave me a soul mark with the Dark Dragon Breath without giving me anything. When I returned, the floating ghosts did not dare to attack. The biggest reason should be the Dark Dragon Breath.
Maybe these ghosts mistook me for a dark dragon.
Now it's better. The floating ghosts don't dare to attack. There is nothing scary in this misty forest. You can walk slowly.
"What happened just now? Why did all those ghosts run away?" Rias asked curiously, obviously this question has been bothering her since just now.
I said calmly: "Maybe their mother called them home for dinner!"
Rias burst out laughing, "You have such a rich imagination, even if you go home for dinner, you might all rush back!"
“Maybe there’s not enough food to eat!”
…
After leaving the Misty Forest, we arrived at the Forest of Death, which can be considered an old place. I quickly found the path, and then walked along the path safely to the main road from Novice Village to Silver Moon City. Not yet.
It was late, but there were basically no people coming and going on the road. Only with the help of the bright moonlight and starlight in the sky could we see the misty road clearly in the darkness.
There is a small house far away, and a flower bud as big as a sea bowl hangs in front of the house. This is the so-called street light in this game. It has not been disassembled. I don’t know what is inside, but it is definitely not
It's a tungsten light bulb.
I pushed open the wooden door of the hut. In addition to a charcoal fire pile in the middle, there was also an elderly housewife rubbing her hands together as if she was anxious. When she saw us, she was surprised at first and then realized
We were not the ones she was waiting for and she seemed very disappointed.
This kind of hut is actually used for NPCs passing by to rest and take shelter, so it is not surprising that an NPC suddenly appears here.
For players, such a hut on the road has no value at all. If you want to return to the city, just use the city return coupon. Even if you are curious and come in to take a look, there is nothing to see. There is only a charcoal fire pile in the middle.
.
If it were the Middle Ages, such a roadside shelter would be very useful. Travelers passing by could spend the night and cook food here to fill their stomachs. At this time, this NPC aunt was pacing back and forth anxiously as if waiting for another NPC
, and a charcoal fire was burning, cooking a pot of fragrant food that looked like a hodgepodge.
At this time, Rias's stomach growled unsatisfactorily. She covered her stomach in embarrassment and said, "I'm hungry! I haven't eaten for a day!"
I'm dizzy. I'm wanted by Silver Moon City. Could it be that I'm asked to go back to the city to buy bread?
