The brilliance of the morning sun fell on the plain.
Sauron was driving the carriage forward, the road surface became much bumpier, and they were not moving fast.
Vivienne was sitting at the long table in the carriage, sitting upright with Bai Shengsheng's legs crossed. There was a mirror in front of her, and Gloria was combing her hair behind her. Speaking of which, Sauron's brother is really not very competent. Many things are taken care of by the little girl himself, and he doesn't have the energy to pay attention to so many trivial matters. The appearance of Gloria seemed to make up for the emptiness in this area. She seemed to be playing the role of a mother, with a gentle smile on her lips, carefully helping the little girl comb her hair into a beautiful ponytail.
"done."
Gloria tied her long hair with a pink headband, picked up the mirror and put it in front of Vivian, looked at it, and said with a smile: "Very beautiful. Our Vivian looks like a little princess. "
A sweet smile appeared on the corner of the little girl's mouth when she heard the words. She looked in front of the mirror, caressed her headband fondly, and thanked Gloria behind her: "Thank you, Sister Gloria. It's really beautiful."
After finishing speaking, the little girl rolled her big eyes around, and said in a low voice, "Don't be like a princess anymore, you will be caught by the dragon."
Pooh.
Gloria couldn't help laughing, stretched out her hand to caress her long hair, and said helplessly, "Naughty."
Sauron was chewing the jerky, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up when he heard the voice behind him. He turned around and glanced at the two of them, and then continued to drive the carriage forward. Perhaps because of what happened yesterday, their relationship has become much closer. The Northland Witch in front of him is really different from what Sauron has seen before. The more we get in touch, the more shining points in her body can be found. She is beautiful, elegant and delicate, and her eyes can infect your emotions when she speaks softly. She is really a good woman.
Perhaps the initial arrogance was just a disguise, after all, everyone wears a mask on their face.
It's like Sauron, he looks cold most of the time, this is to prevent others from observing his emotional thoughts. It also seems to be Vivienne, she is a very well-behaved little girl in the eyes of others most of the time, but in fact she is also a little naughty and mischievous, which is not even the pastor girl who was close to her back then figure it out. Only Sauron, who was closest to her, and Gloria in front of her could realize that the little girl was sometimes very weird.
This is a very good thing.
The eccentric Vivian is better than the obedient Vivian, because Sauron has always worried that she is too obedient to adapt.
If she is really the Son of God, simplicity is a very fatal thing.
One can remain pure in heart, but one must not be pure in thought. It is very difficult for a pure person to survive in this dangerous world.
A large group of wild goats can be seen in the distance. There are many such beasts in the wilderness. They do not have strong abilities and can only rely on their groups to survive and protect themselves. Generally, a small number of fierce leaders will be born in this kind of goat flock. They are stronger than other goat flocks, have a creature level of three to five, and sometimes dare to confront the wolves head-on. This is also very similar to human beings, because human beings have the strong guarding the weak and maintaining their living space.
The leading sheep spotted the carriage in the distance, and it let out a muffled cry. It arched the lambs next to it with its thick horns, and drove them away towards the interior of the plain. The leading sheep enjoy the richest green grass. In order to ensure that the strong offspring have the most mates, they are also responsible for protecting them when they encounter danger. When they are unable to resist, they will try to find the most effective escape route, and other sheep will follow. They run away.
They are protected by druids.
If it was just a small-scale hunting for survival, the druids would not intervene, but if it was a large-scale hunting of sheep, the druids would appear with their anger, and they stubbornly maintained the balance of nature. If there are too many sheep in the flock, they will mercilessly kill some of them to ensure that the green grass will not be eaten clean by them.
Paladins are annoying, and druids are actually annoying too.
…
Vivian was sitting in the carriage reading a book, the little girl was more sensible than before.
The speed at which she absorbed knowledge surprised both of them. Vivienne has already read one-third of the books that Goliath carried with her. You must know that there are hundreds of books that are as thick as bricks and filled with densely packed professional knowledge. books. Although it is only memorized at the moment, as long as she is given a little time, she can definitely become a knowledgeable spellcaster. The influence of knowledge on the caster is more important than the spell slot. The more powerful the caster, the more knowledge he needs.
The wilderness is much calmer than before.
Most of the monsters have moved to this area on their own initiative, and they will not dare to approach for a long time in the future.
However, there are still scattered kobolds and goblins. These creatures are basically everywhere, and the White Horse Guards don't have time to clean up these little things, because at most a new litter will be born next year. In the afternoon, Sauron met a traveler, which was a relatively rare race in the southern region, but also a very popular race.
It was a halfling.
He was small, only about one meter tall, wearing child-sized clothes, and wearing two short swords around his waist. Although they were standard swords, they looked like daggers to Sauron. The halfling has not much fluff on its body, especially the feet and the back of its hands. It is estimated that it weighs only about 30 to 40 pounds. He leads the two goblins with a strong rope, and kicks them from time to time to drive them away. Follow these two little monsters in the wilderness.
When he saw the carriage in the distance, he immediately jumped up excitedly, waved to Sauron and shouted: "Hi! Can you give me a ride?"
Gloria poked her head out for a look, then sat back naturally.
The little girl looked at him with her head poking around, smiled and gestured at his height, and said in Sauron's ear, "Brother! Look! He's a halfling! It's really only a little taller than Vivian."
A very small, unremarkable halfling.
If it's in a place with lush weeds, you really can't see him unless he jumps up.
"You are lucky." The halfling untied the rope and kicked the two goblins, and they ran away quickly. He put the rope away and whispered, "You dare to steal my food, you won't be so lucky next time."
Sauron slowed down the speed of the carriage a little, and the halfling jumped up very familiarly. He was very agile. He stroked the horse's back with his hand, then stepped on the slender rope and sat next to Sauron, laughing. Said: "Thank you very much. I have been walking alone in the wilderness for many days. I can finally take a rest."
Halflings are the most brilliant rogues, and they are more talented in stealth than Sauron. If they don't wear shoes, they are born with a stealth bonus of 20 points, and they will never hear any footsteps.
"Hello, Your Excellency the Witch."
"Hello, pretty little girl."
The halfling had excellent eyesight, and he greeted with a smile, then looked at Sauron sitting next to him, and introduced himself: "Hi, my name is Aladdin, Aladdin—Tobacco—Norodotus, I am A wanderer and a world-traveling gourmand."
"Nice to meet you."
Sauron didn't answer, but the corners of his mouth twitched when he heard the name.
Vivienne was very curious, she walked up to the other party, stretched out her hands and pinched the other party's baby face curiously, Aladdin was not angry, just let her touch it with a smile, then blinked and said: "Little Girl, is this the first time you see a halfling? This is what I look like, about the same height as you."
Most halflings have a good temper, and they are a race that can easily produce good people.
They are favored by many gods, and they are also a race that respects gods very much. Even the weak gods of streams and lakes, halflings will properly express their respect. They are the number one foodies in the world, and they are also the race with the most gourmets. Many halflings with great curiosity will aspire to taste the food of the world before traveling. In most cases, they can easily gain the favor of other races. If they encounter bad guys, they can easily escape with their skills.
This is a race favored by the goddess of luck.
Among all intelligent creatures, halflings are the only race that is born with luck bonuses. If halflings are blessed by the gods, they will also have an additional specialty of [heroic luck], and they will get 1 point of luck under any circumstances. value added. This race is common in many epic legends. They are the best partners of the protagonists of the epics, and they are also willing to help those who are recognized by them.
However, their strength is very small, and their combat relies more on their agility.
A considerable number of halflings don't even have 10 points of strength, the average strength of halflings is only 8 points, and the common halflings have 12 points of strength, which is very high.
The number of halflings is small, and most of them are active in the Shire and Murodo areas. The population is at most hundreds of thousands, and they have not expanded for tens of millions of years.
They are protected by [Halfling Guardian Goddess]—Yotana, an ancient deity with powerful divine power. Halflings have multiplied for countless years under her protection. They have exuberant curiosity, but they have no intention of fighting for hegemony. If no one disturbs them, these little people are born optimists, who love to grow tobacco, brew spirits and pursue delicious food.
correct.
They also like to brag!
He especially likes to brag to other people after sitting down with a pipe in his mouth and taking a good puff.
So when Aladdin took out his pipe and took out the special tobacco from his small pocket, Sauron knew that he was going to brag to Vivienne.
He has seen such a scene more than once.
