Half-elf Ranger

"Thorn, I won't say anything extra. Anyway, be careful by yourself." Andrina watched Thorne's cheeks quietly, and gently stroked the strands of hair on his forehead, There was a faint smile on his delicate cheeks.

Since she took up the profession of wizard, she knew very well how her future path should go. Although she was somewhat reluctant, she also understood that being with Thorne, in addition to letting him do things, he would be restrained, right. The increase in his own strength is not very big.

After all, wizards are a group of professions that rely on the accumulation of knowledge to gradually become stronger, so she is very clear about what she should do now.

The most terrible thing about a person is that she always misses the past, sits and fantasizes about the future, and spends every day in the present. She was probably such a person who used to be in Winter City, so she must be used to standing at the intersection of life now, but there are no traffic lights.

"Don't worry, when I find the master swordsmith in the Underdark, cast all the weapons in my hand, and then activate the ancient ritual, I'll be ready to accompany you to meditate in the tower for a while." Thorne watched Andrina looked at her with concern, and a sincere smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

It's not difficult for him to smile, it's a very simple action, as long as the corner of the mouth is slightly raised, but to him it's a perfunctory smile, only in front of her can he show the most natural smile Sincere smile.

When it comes to the legendary weapons, Thorne suddenly remembered that the necklace that he once gave to Andrina was also a piece of ancient equipment.

When his kendo level was raised to level 7, he acquired a "sensing magic" feature that can identify magic equipment, so he suddenly wanted to try to see if he could identify the conditions for the activation ceremony of this ancient equipment.

After all, if the ancient equipment does not activate it, it is almost useless except as a decoration.

So Thorne's eyes moved to the other side's neck as white as jade involuntarily.

Andrina's dress, as the goblin wizard Malvasia teased, looked very simple, except for a black cape jacket, lined with a white shirt with delicate buttons.

This conservative and beautiful woman buttoned her clothes so neatly that Thorne could only see a faint flash of magic on the necklace hidden in the collar, but not the whole picture.

When he moved his gaze down subconsciously, he was deeply attracted by the other party's slightly undulating full chest, and a certain picture appeared in his mind again.

"..."

Seemingly noticing Thorne's gaze, Andrina's face immediately flushed shyly, and she lowered her head to look at the flora on her toes. He helped her cover her cheek with a faint smile.

Thorne noticed that he suddenly lost his temper, and immediately turned his head to look at the glowing flora, hiding the embarrassment, then coughed deliberately, regained his calm look, looked at Andrina and said, "Take the necklace you are wearing. Come down and let me check."

"Oh."

Andrina didn't ask more, but slowly raised her head, brushed the hair behind her cheeks behind her, responded obediently, reached out and took it down, and handed it to Thorne.

Thorne looked at the silver necklace strung together by seven delicate dark blue gemstones, feeling the residual body temperature on it, closing his eyes slightly, silently feeling the magic power contained in this string called 'sad fairy tale' .

For Thorne, time seemed to have passed for a long time, and it seemed to pass in a flash. When he slowly opened his eyes, he immediately noticed that there was a faint tear oozing out of the corner of his eyes.

"I didn't expect that this magical power of sadness could actually affect my mind." Thorne recalled the scenes of anger, despair and grief he seemed to feel just now, and couldn't help but mutter to himself.

Although he still doesn't know what kind of ancient ceremony he needs, he probably understands which direction to carry out in order to truly unlock this necklace.

If that's the case, then he'd rather never untie it.

Then Thorne noticed that there were two pale golden eyes flashing in front of him, staring at his Andrina curiously.

In order to hide his out-of-control emotions, he directly took the other party into his arms, took a deep breath, and said with a smile pretending to be relaxed: "It seems that the ancient equipment is not so easy to unlock, it can only be left to chance."

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter whether I can unlock it or not." Andrina leaned on Thorne's chest and said with a smile.

Because this necklace looks really beautiful. Although it can only be used as an ordinary decoration, it is at least the first gift that this cute looking ranger gave her. This is enough to commemorate.

"Then let it be sealed forever, sad fairy tale..." Thorne sighed inwardly and thought to himself.

In the dim underground ruins, two silhouettes walking together, shrouded in a fungal clump of pale blue light, gradually became pale and illusory until they disappeared without a trace.

…………

"Master Qingchen, Ms. Malvasia, and Brother Kutaig, then you should go ahead and return immediately after I finish the business here."

Thorne first glanced at Andrina, then patted the broad shoulders of the orc swordsman, and said to everyone with a smile.

Kutaig didn't say a word, he held his sword in one hand and rubbed his chest in one hand and bowed to Thorne.

Master Qingchen gave Thorne a gentle smile and nodded lightly.

"I hope we don't make us wait too long. After all, the situation in the Emerald Wilderness is still not optimistic, and the Heruk Hobgoblin is always our biggest threat." Malvasa glanced at Thorne, sighed slightly, and said her own. worry.

"It's alright, I have two communication stones here. If there is anything, just send a message and the other party will receive it immediately." At this time, Sigrid, who was sitting not far away, got up and walked over and answered. talk.

After speaking, she stretched out her palm directly, and like a conjuration, two small stones that could be matched with each other after carving appeared in her palm.

"Beautiful beauty, this stone is given to you. If you suddenly miss your boyfriend one day, just send a message and he will receive it immediately."

Sigrid gave Andrina a playful look, then threw one of the communication stones to her, and the other directly to Thorne.

Andrina stretched out her hand to take the communication stone that Sigrid threw, and she was slightly relieved. Of course, it was not because she was able to contact Thorne later.

The real reason is the girl who gave her things. After all, the person she likes goes to work with other girls, and she once threatened to make Thorne her dragon knight.

If she didn't have any worries in her heart, it was completely impossible, she just didn't express it in her words and expressions.

Now, the other party took the initiative to give her something like this, which at least shows that the girl is not interested in Thorne.

As for the cute ranger, Andrina remembered the previous experience of the two and smiled involuntarily.

"However, this kind of communication stone can only transmit a message once a day. If one of them is destroyed, the other stone that matches it will also be useless, so you should pay attention to yourself." Suddenly, Sigrid saw staring at the palm of his hand. The messenger stone, like Andrina smirking, deliberately reminded with a smile.

Thorne took the communication stone, thanked the other party, glanced at Anderina again, saw her come back, nodded slightly to himself, and put it in his pocket with a smile.

The reason why it is not included in the dimensional bag is mainly because this kind of stone can only be stored close to the body to ensure that the moment the other party's message comes, it can be sensed immediately.

"Little young dragon, why don't you go back to Waterfall Town with them to find your lovely little nephew and newborn grandson."

Looking at the group's retreating backs, Sigrid suddenly noticed the red dragon Argottus who was planning to sneak back into the cave, and asked curiously.

"As you said, I'm just a young dragon, and naturally I don't want Waterfall Town to be brushed by evil forces as a dungeon." Argotus paused, turned the dragon's head over, and said with a guilty smile. .

After finishing speaking, Argotus turned his head and wanted to leave. Although the black dragon in front of him looked like a very quiet little girl, for some reason, he always felt that staying with this girl for a long time... was absolutely useless.

Therefore, he believes that what he needs to do most right now is not to pay too much attention to the other party, and to stay in his own hole and develop steadily is what he needs to do the most.

When the strength is strong, he can bring a large group of kobolds back to the town of waterfalls and show everyone the real power of the dragon.

After all, the biggest threat to the Rat Man has been cleaned up, so he can now consider the issue of expanding the kobold tribe. When the strength of the tribe is strong, it can also bring great help to the player's territory on the surface.

"Wait a minute, I still have something to discuss with you." Seeing Argotus preparing to get back into the hole, Sigrid frowned and stopped.

"I'm sorry, a group of kobolds are about to hatch in the cave. I'm going to do a record of their growth. I'm sorry." Hearing that there was something to discuss, the red dragon Argotus shivered suddenly, and immediately realized that he was absolutely Something bad happened.

So he quickly found an excuse, put away his wings and hurriedly crawled into the hole, he was very confident that as long as he drilled into the hole, no one could do anything to him.

After all, this natural cave is densely covered with lava volcanoes, and under the excavation of his group of kobolds, a complex terrain of countless small labyrinths and large labyrinths has been formed.

As long as the outsiders dared to break in, they would be greeted by deadly artificial traps, natural lava and boiling steam, otherwise the rat people would not have been helpless against him so far.

However, just when Argottus was about to climb back into the cave with secret joy, he suddenly felt that his whole body was imprisoned by an unknown magical force.

Immediately afterwards, his huge dragon body slowly left the ground and drifted in the direction of Sigrid uncontrollably.

"boom!"

Seeing that Argotus' body was about to float in front of her, a playful smile evoked the corners of Sigaret's mouth, only to see her finger suddenly point down, and the terrified red dragon was thrown directly to the ground. .

"Do you have anything else to do?" Thorne couldn't help but ask when he saw the playful girl.

After all, the other party had promised him before to take him to find the swordsmith in the dark region, but now he is playing boredly here, which makes him secretly worry about whether the next trip will go smoothly.

"Wait a minute, I'll take care of this young dragon, and I'll set off immediately." Sigrid replied casually, and continued to turn her attention to Agotus, who was crying and howling on the ground.

"If you have something to discuss, hurry up and say it." Argotus grinned and struggled to get up from the ground, spewing two angry fumes from his nose, looking at the mischievous Sigrid and said fiercely.

"You should add one last sentence: I'm super fierce!" Seeing Argotus' expression, Sigrid imitated the other party's tone, laughed out loud, and casually pulled Thorne's sleeve and said : "Thorn, look at the expression of this little dragon looks fierce."

"..."

Thorne didn't know what to say, because Argottus' expression seemed... cute indeed.

Some people say that no matter whether animals or humans, they will appear very cute in their infancy, and the reason for this is said to be to enhance the survival rate. But he disagreed, because he had never seen a carnivore in the wasteland that would show mercy to a cute cub because of its cuteness.

"..."

Argotus directly opened his wide wings, lowered his head, and covered the angry dragon's head. Only a wisp of smoke from his nose wafted out of the gap, indicating that the young dragon was in a very bad mood.

"Okay, I won't play with you anymore, let's get down to business." Sigrid put away her smile, looked at Argotus and said, "Do you know who the master of this dungeon is? Argot s."

"It can't be you?" Argotus said with a surprised tone, sticking out his small head from the dragon's wings.

"Yes, I am the ruler of this dungeon." Sigaret held the sheathed long sword, looked at the red dragon, and said calmly: "So, all the forces in the entire dungeon must obey me. command."

"What do you want?" Argottus sensed an unpleasant aura, flapped his wings and floated in mid-air, bowing his head and asking.

"Since you are a red dragon and have been discovered by me again, if you want to get my asylum, you must reach some agreement with me." Sigrid pondered for a while, then expressed her thoughts: "If you do not agree If you do, you must move out of this dungeon with your clan."

"What agreement?" Argotus's inner unease became more and more serious, so he asked again.

It is naturally impossible for him to move out of the dungeon. In two years, he managed to successfully arrange this natural cave. The rich minerals and sufficient food have made him almost complete the automatic cycle mode, and now he is ready to study industry. Technology, if you move out, all your hard work will be in vain, and it will be difficult to find a suitable place to live.

"You are a young dragon now, and you still need fifty years from your youth. This agreement of mine requires you to fulfill it in fifty years."

Sigrid held the sheathed long sword in one hand and leaned on her chin in the other, her pale green eyes twinkling, and said with a thoughtful expression.

"Fifty years later? Adolescence?" Argottus said to himself in confusion.

Immediately afterwards, his face changed suddenly, his chest heaved up and down, and the whole faucet was like a steam train, instantly spewing two thick smoke, and the two big eyes also danced with flickering flames.

What followed was the fierce red dragon roaring: "Don't even think about it, I'd rather die than agree to your filthy conditions."

What does it mean to be a dragon in youth? It means that it has the ability to pass on the lineage. Is it worth thinking about it? The little girl in front of her must definitely want to use him as a breeding tool.

"Don't worry, we are all players, I will not force you to die. If you don't want to, then I will give you three days to move out of this dungeon with your clan."

Noticing the expression of the red dragon, Sigrid seemed to have expected it a long time ago. Although there was a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, the momentum from the real dragon was released by her.

"Can we negotiate?" Red Dragon, who was suppressed by Long Wei, tried subconsciously, which led to his sudden discouragement.

"Actually, my requirements are not high. After you reach your youth, you can get one dragon egg per month." Seeing the Red Dragon compromise, Sigrid was not surprised at all, and directly stated her conditions.

"Would you like to lay a dragon egg yourself?" Argotus murmured inwardly, but did not dare to say it, and then said through gritted teeth, "I can promise you, but I have to change the conditions."

"Then talk about it." Sigaret glanced at Thorne beside him, showing a triumphant smile, but in exchange for the other party's roll of eyes and a back that didn't bother to pay attention to her.

"One every two months, I only serve fifty years, and if I am not satisfied with the species you choose, I have the right to refuse. Also, you must ensure that my stable development here will not be affected in any way." Argotus secretly glanced at the other party and said the conditions that he could accept.

"No problem!" Sigrid agreed without thinking, and then waved her hand, and a scroll of magic contract appeared in her palm.

"Young dragon! Sign him."

Argottus took the scroll, found that nothing was wrong, hesitated for a while, and finally humiliated and signed this unfair contract.

"Very well, the young dragon Argottus, listen carefully. From now on, you will belong to my subordinates. If you want to develop steadily here, just be honest with me, and don't have any disagreements." Sigrid Looking at the dragon claw mark on the contract, Tetsu nodded with satisfaction.

"you are vicious!"

Argotus glared at the other party viciously, but in exchange, the other party laughed at his fierce and fierce laughter. With an angry roar, he spewed a long-suppressed flame into the sky and went straight back into the cave.
