"It shouldn't be. How would they know?" Bart couldn't help but said, "Didn't Heimd discover the dragon? Could it be that we have a traitor in our midst?!"
Hela didn't explain much, just said: "It's not important. Anyway, Skadi does know the location of this giant dragon."
"So what is going to happen next is a battle for the dragon, not just the hunting of the dragon... Everyone knows the rules of the Hunting Festival. Hunters can only harass each other at most, and cannot plunder the owned prey, and no substantial disputes can occur.
Fighting, especially without causing injuries."
"So you must have a good sense of proportion, be sure to exercise restraint, and don't hurt others first."
Hela warned again: "The two hunting groups are fighting for the dragon. Master Uller will definitely observe secretly. Every move we make is under his eyes. Don't take any chances."
Bart's eyes lit up, and he patted Rowe on the shoulder: "By the way, Rowe, don't you have a spell that gives you the middle finger? I remember that spell seems to only harass, and will not cause any harm at all?"
"Is there such a magic?" Hunters who didn't know Luo Wei were surprised.
Luo Wei didn't say much, nodded and said: "I will try my best."
On the other side, the hunters of the Skati hunting group were sitting together and discussing. Rojas suddenly said: "The dwarf with the warhammer seems to have a spell that specializes in harassment. Your Highness, I think we should pay more attention to it."
Hit him."
"What spell?"
Roxas shook his head: "That's not clear. They just mentioned it accidentally."
Skadi was silent for a moment: "Any attack spell will cause damage. If that dwarf likes to harass, we will let him harass us. As long as he misses and injures one of our people, the balance of victory will tilt heavily in our favor."
"Judging from past hunting festivals, whoever hurts someone first will be the loser."
During the discussion, Shi Lute had been sitting behind Luo Wei, silently eating stones, one small stone at a time.
After the discussion, everyone took a rest. Heimd pointed at Shilute and said, "Rovi, where did you find this little thing?"
"Picked it from the trash heap." Luo Wei said casually.
"Garbage dump?" Heimd obviously didn't believe it. "I thought he was a Krunan at first, but the Krunan people don't seem to eat rocks... This is the first time I have seen a creature that eats rocks."
"Does he eat so much every day?" He looked at the pile of gravel next to him.
Luo Wei said: "Yes, I have to find a large stone and break it for him to eat every day. Fortunately, his food is stone, otherwise I would have to feed him with his appetite."
Heimd teased the little stone man, teasingly taking out a ruby and dangling it in front of him.
When Xiao Shilute, who was eating stones, saw the ruby, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He looked straight at the gem, and the stone he was holding in his hand fell unconsciously, drooling all over the floor.
"Want to eat, little one?" Heimd said seductively, shaking the gem.
"Hey!" Xiaoshi Lute jumped up excitedly, trying to get the gem.
After a while, Heimd got tired of teasing and said, "A thousand runes."
After saying that, he threw the gem to Shilute.
Before Luo Wei could say anything, Shi Lute swallowed the ruby in one gulp, then rolled on the ground with satisfaction, making a happy sound: "嘤嘤嘤嘤..."
Luo Wei was stunned for a moment: "One thousand runes?!"
Heimd said: "This is one of my father's collections. I got it from home. One thousand runes is just a conservative estimate."
Heimd's father is Tyr, who is considered a big boss. It is normal to collect gems worth thousands of runes.
Luo Wei suddenly went crazy and shook the little stone man: "Spit it out! This is a thousand runes, a thousand runes, spit it out!"
"Hey!" Shi Lute looked aggrieved, but he did not spit out the gems.
Heimd laughed: "Haha, I lied to you. I stole a thousand runes from home, and my father had to beat me to death."
Luo Wei breathed a sigh of relief: "How much is that?"
"I don't know." Heimd picked his ears, "But it shouldn't be very valuable. I have a box at home, and I just picked up a few."
As he said that, he took out a few more identical rubies and threw them to Xiao Shilute: "I've given them all to you."
Little Shilute was overjoyed. He lay down directly on the ground, swept a few gems into his mouth like sweeping the floor, ate them with satisfaction, and then rolled around happily on the ground.
"嘤嘤嘤!嘤嘤嘤!"
Luo Wei: "..."
Unexpectedly, while it was rolling, Xiao Shilute suddenly froze and stopped in place, motionless and no longer making any sound.
Luo Wei was startled and hurriedly picked up Shi Lute and checked him, and then found that he seemed to be just asleep.
Even so, he still frowned and was a little worried.
Because Shilute has never slept since he was born, it seems that he doesn't need to sleep at all. Now he suddenly fell asleep, I don't know if this is a normal phenomenon.
Heimd looked at Shi Lute who suddenly became motionless and was also startled: "Isn't it because he was poisoned? It shouldn't be."
Luo Wei frowned: "I don't know... It's my first time to come into contact with this kind of creature, and I can't figure out its life patterns."
He was silent for a moment, his brows still widened: "Let's see again tomorrow, I hope nothing happens."
One night passed.
In the early morning, at the gathering point, the hunters from the two hunting groups of Skati and Hela woke up one after another and got ready to go.
Luo Wei also rubbed his eyes, woke up from his sleep, then looked at Shi Lute and patted him.
"Hey." Shi Lute got up from the ground and looked around blankly.
Seeing that he was fine, Luo Wei breathed a sigh of relief.
"Huh?"
However, he was soon surprised to find that Shi Lute had become significantly larger after waking up.
I ate so many stones before that I didn't even fart, but after eating these gems, I actually grew bigger overnight?
Does this little thing have to eat gems to grow up?
As soon as this idea came up, Luo Wei faintly felt a suffocating and terrifying force approaching him.
This terrible force is the power of poverty.
But now he didn't have time to think about this. Hela was already gathering the team. A dozen hunters from six teams gathered one after another, and Luo Wei also ran over quickly.
Skadi also made the same move, with more than a dozen hunters getting ready to go.
The two parties looked at each other from time to time, and the tense atmosphere gradually became thicker.
"...The hunting festival is already halfway through. According to past experience, the time to decide the outcome is coming."
Hela glanced at Skadi one last time, composed herself, and ordered: "Let's go!"
