Delphine handed the strip of cloth to Brando and said with a wry smile. Brando took the piece of cloth and saw that it was written in beautiful handwriting: Thank you... four words, nothing else superfluous.
Content.
The little girl's camp was already empty. Brando thought that he didn't realize when the other party left at all. It seemed that the other party was able to trek alone in the Tauchik Swamp for such a long time not just because of
Just luck.
Maybe she should have some means of hiding her whereabouts, or a magic item, or a legacy left to them in vain, or a treasure of the Sifah family. I just don’t know why she fell into the hands of the Sheep-Headed Cultists.
On the hand, after all, it seems that the little girl is very vigilant and very cautious.
Brando glanced at the long-extinguished campfire and opened the tent. There was nothing in the tent. It seemed that she had at least taken away the food. This discovery made him feel a little relieved.
"She shouldn't be able to go far," Princess Magdale said with some worry: "If we look around, maybe we can find her. Even if she has tools to hide her whereabouts, it must not last for a long time, otherwise she will
It will not fall into the hands of the Sheephead Cultists."
Brando put down the curtains of the tent, but shook his head: "We catch up with her, and what can we do next? If she is unwilling to accept our help, there is no point in forcing her."
"Mr. Brando, but..."
"I'm also worried about her. Princess Magdal, but everyone must be responsible for their own choices. I believe that little girl knows what she is doing. If it were you, would you be willing to accept charity from a stranger?"
"But that's not charity. We just want to help her."
"Perhaps in her eyes, it is charity, because she can survive here without us," Brando glanced at the banner and replied: "She thanked us, just thanked us for saving her."
"But she is still so young." Magdale thought of the scene of the little girl named Ling walking barefoot in the swamp, one foot deep and one foot shallow.
It's so dangerous for everyone. She will always get into trouble alone, right?"
"Don't worry," Brando put away the cloth and said, "She will go to Hadland, which is not far from here. She won't have to trek in the swamp for too long. I have a hunch. Maybe we will still be there
Meet her."
Princess Magdalen nodded. Although there was still some worry on her face, she stopped talking. She also understood the importance of this line of work and could not waste too much time aimlessly looking for someone in the swamp.
It was already dawn, but Fang Qi hadn't appeared yet. Brando was a little worried, not because he was afraid that the other party would keep his promise. After getting along with him for so many days, he already knew that although this genius gentleman of the Guiche family had a somewhat bad personality, he at least said what he said.
It must be done, he is worried that the other party will encounter some trouble. Taoqik is on the civilized border of Madala near the inner sea of the dead moon. This wetland swamp is actually an alternative black forest, and the magic power of chaos is becoming more and more important.
In today’s powerful world, no one can guarantee what they will encounter here.
And Brando can be sure that the other party has encountered more troubles than this.
For this reason, he decided to go to the meeting point in advance to have a look. If Fang Qi hadn't appeared yet, then they would really have to consider looking for a living person in the swamp. But this time they weren't looking for a helpless person.
The little girl is looking for a grown man who can lose herself.
He asked Princess Magdale and Mr. Liu to help clean up the camp, and he walked around the camp. Although he said he didn't care about the little half-elf girl, Brando still subconsciously paid attention to the traces near the camp.
, what made him a little strange was that there were no footprints or similar signs of departure within a mile or two of the camp, which made him sigh at the powerful effect of the prop that could hide his whereabouts.
The tent was quickly dismantled. Brando did not let others deliberately eliminate the traces of Sparse Shadow. He was not afraid that someone would catch up from the direction of Maltaha. To catch up was nothing more than to die. He didn't mind killing a few more.
Sheep-Headed Cultists.
What's more, it's only a little over a day's journey from Maltaha to Deharan. With the blessing of magic, they may be traveling faster, and those cultists from Maltahar will probably just eat ashes behind them.
Everyone packed their bags, put on the goat-headed robes that made them feel extremely uncomfortable, and continued heading south.
Until their figures disappeared in the mist of the swamp, in the lonely camp, the space in the half-open tent suddenly twisted, and a small figure lifted up a cloak and emerged from the tent.
The figure is revealed.
She slowly stood up from the tent and looked quietly at the direction where Brando and his group were leaving. Her delicate face was as expressionless as ever. After a while, she lowered her head and held the pockets on her back with both hands.
The hat was pulled up, covering her long silver hair and pointed ears, leaving only her white chin exposed.
She turned back and silently took a look at her camp and the tent, and then started to dismantle the tent. She first tied up the wooden sticks supporting the tent with canvas and ropes, tied them like a luggage, and then carried it
It was a bit heavy to carry. But she only hesitated for a moment, gritted her teeth and carried the luggage behind her back. She glanced at the camp one last time, as if looking for anything worth taking away, and then turned around, a small silhouette appeared on her back.
Walking one foot deeper and one foot shallower towards the depths of the swamp.
Brando and others obviously did not guess that the little girl would stay in the camp, or even if they guessed, they would not turn back easily. As he said, the little girl was obviously unwilling to stay and drag them down, so even if they did
If you find her, she will leave again sooner or later, and even if you force her to stay, it will only hurt her little self-esteem.
In fact, since the brief conversation last night, he had already understood the inner thoughts of the little girl named Ling.
Although he may not agree with it, he knows how to respect this small self-esteem, because it is the few precious things left by the other party.
Thinking of that little girl, and then thinking of Bai and Medisa, to be honest, what he saw in Ling was more of Medisa's shadow, rather than their cunning mother. He didn't know how Bai was born.
Such a daughter, or is this deep-seated pride actually the nature of the Silver Elf?
The group of people walked silently in the swamp. If they were still a little curious about the surrounding environment when they first arrived here, but once the curiosity period passed, Taoqik was completely worthy of cursing him in the worst language, because this place is just a mud
A pond is a large, tidal, cold pool, monotonous, boring, and full of dangers.
The flooded grassland is full of undead souls and skeletons that have lost their footing and are stuck deep in it. From time to time, an ugly-looking corpse with a foul smell will appear and pounce towards you with its teeth and claws. Even if you cut it in half with a sword, the corpses will scatter among them.
The liquid and the maggots crawling in and out will also make you so sick that you will vomit out the remaining contents of your stomach and return it to the earth.
However, in the face of the battle, both men took the responsibility more consciously. Huanghuo tried to fight the ghoul several times, and then refused to fight again. Although the little princess has a tenacious temperament,
She wanted to pull it out, but she was also afraid of something. Those maggots almost took her life away.
In addition to fighting, trekking in the swamp itself is also a troublesome thing. Although Mr. Liu and Huang Huo among them both have the strength of element civilization, this little trouble is nothing to them. And Magdal
Since the princess began to awaken from the bloodline of the 'creator', and with the blessing of the Book of the Earth, traveling in the swamp is not a very difficult task.
In fact, the help of the Book of the Earth to the nun and princess is far from that. Earth magic has the most complete categories of travel spells, such as striding, guiding the road, summoning bridges, ignoring terrain, etc. Among them, ignoring terrain
It can even allow people to move forward unharmed in lava fields, let alone mere swamps.
It's just that Princess Magdal's magic power is limited. Although she has the dragon's heart, she can't use too much power because her mental power is not coordinated enough. At the moment, her magic is only enough for her to use alone. Regarding this, this
Although the nun princess didn't say it openly, she was secretly taking the time to meditate and coordinate her mental power. She probably felt a little sorry that her magic could not help others in the adventure.
Brando has some understanding of the serious and kind-hearted character of Her Royal Highness the Princess.
Among the few people, the one who had the hardest time was the prime minister's daughter who had always behaved as if nothing had happened. Although Delphine was not very strong originally, he had also learned magic and swordsmanship. However, due to the contaminated fountain of life, these powers had been lost.
All was washed away and turned into a completely ordinary person. Although Brando included her in the Death Moon deck, he could not use this card because Morpheus and Andrrig were not here.
Reset, so she still maintains the strength of an ordinary person before.
As Princess Magdale was worried before, even ordinary adults traveling in this swamp is a very thankless chore. There are no so-called roads in the Gein swamp, and there are shallow bays and muddy areas everywhere.
Once you walk in, the mud is deep enough, and there are also aquatic plants in it. If you accidentally walk into the mire, without a companion to rescue you, you may even get caught in it with your life.
