Field wilderness.
"Celine, why are you here?" Link happily greeted her.
To be honest, it was really dangerous just now. If Link hadn't sensed Nana's breath, Link would have wanted to drink the Red Dragon Queen's blessing potion.
Celine walked over with a big gun in her arms. After looking at Emmons who had been cut into a stick by Nana, she turned her head to look at Aloya. A second later, she looked down at Aloya's chest. Looking at his own in a blink of an eye, his face suddenly became a little unkind: "Who is she?"
Link didn't feel this change, and introduced: "She is Aloya, who just escaped from the dark elves and escaped from the north."
Aloya nodded and said: "I came to the south to find Link, and I appreciate his achievements in space magic."
"Oh." Celine nodded lightly, then took out a cloak and threw it over: "Take this and put it on."
"Thank you." Aloya knew that he looked very embarrassed now, and after taking the cloak, he put it on his body to cover his body.
Here, Link walked up to Emmons and asked in a low voice, "You are Emmons, right? I didn't expect you to come to my territory from the north."
Emmons gritted his teeth: "Stop talking, just kill me."
"It's not that simple. You are a core member of the Silvermoon Council and the master of Fort Horton. How could you die so easily? You should die vigorously."
After speaking, he turned his head to Nana and said, "Take him back to Scorched Earth Ridge, be gentle, and don't let him die."
"clear!"
Nana stepped forward and walked around Emmons, but she couldn't find a place to hold him. She had no choice but to stretch out her hand and carry him on her shoulder.
Link walked up to Aloya again, cast a levitation spell on her, and then used the mage's hand to drag her all the way forward.
Celine followed Link, her eyes glanced at Aloya from time to time, and then at herself, occasionally frowning slightly, looking troubled.
Link still didn't notice any abnormalities. He was now full of things about the artifact, the Dark Snake, and asked Aloya as he walked.
"How's your injury?" Link asked.
"It doesn't matter, it will be almost cured in ten minutes." Aloya smiled politely, she was more sensitive than Link, and had already sensed Celine's dissatisfaction with her, so she deliberately distanced herself from Link Some.
"Just leave it like this, don't you need to correct the bones for you?" Link looked at Aloya's calf, and he found that the distortion of the leg seemed to be much smaller.
"No, my immortal body comes from the power of the law. After a while, it will naturally return to its original state."
"So that's how it is, it's really amazing." Link looked at Aloyar's calf frequently, and his heart became more and more looking forward to the information about the artifact, the Dark Snake, brought by Aloyar.
Seeing him like this, Celine became more and more frustrated.
Emmons on the side had already recovered his breath at this time, he gritted his teeth and said: "Ailoya, it's not enough for you to betray my family, and now you are going to blaspheme the Dark Lady? You will definitely end up in a tragic end."
Aloya glanced at the dark elf stick, then turned to Link and said, "He is completely controlled by anger now, and his mouth is full of nonsense, is there a way to shut him up?"
Link looked at Nana: "Knock him out."
As soon as the words were finished, there was a bang, and Nana hit Emmons' temple in a circle, and the dark elf passed out like this: "Master, he will be in a coma for about 15 hours."
"Well, it's enough." Link was very satisfied with Nana's execution efficiency. He turned to Aloya and said, "No one is arguing now, can you tell me the specific observation data?"
Aloya nodded, then she turned to Celine and said, "Do you have a dagger?"
"Ah? A dagger? What do you want a dagger for?" Celine recovered from her own thoughts, very strange, but she still took out the self-defense dagger and handed it over.
Ai Luoya held the dagger, without further ado, directly stabbed herself in the lower abdomen, and then cut across the knife, the blood flowed out, but Ai Luoya only frowned slightly, as if she didn't feel any pain, she then reached out and took out the dagger. It entered his lower abdomen, groped for a while, and pulled out a bloody magic spar.
This tragic act of self-mutilation stunned both Link and Celine.
Aloya wiped off the blood on the magic spar calmly, handed it to Link, and explained: "The entire fusion process of the artifact is recorded in the spar. The first harvest after my research is endless vitality. You see, my wounds are healed."
Both of them looked at Aloya's lower abdomen, and sure enough, the hideous incision just now disappeared completely in such a short while, even the blood disappeared, leaving only the smooth and flat lower abdomen. Looking at Aloya's calf again, it was basically healed, leaving only a slight edema, and this edema was also disappearing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Tsk tsk, it's really amazing." Even Celine was shocked this time.
Aloya put her cloak back on, sighed, and there was no joy on her face: "The immortal body is very good to ordinary people, but it is a burden to me, so I lost all my magic power. This spar is The only thing I brought from the North."
Link has already begun to check the contents of the spar. After a few glances, he couldn't help but praise: "It's a priceless treasure... God, this is so exquisite, it's unimaginable!"
In the first half of the sentence, Link was still talking to Aloya, but in the second half, he was completely talking to himself.
Aloya is not surprised by this situation. In fact, she herself was the same when she saw the fusion process for the first time. Seeing that Link was completely addicted to it, she turned her head and whispered to Celine: "I only want to His mind is interested, but his people are not, so don't worry."
"What... put me at ease, I'm not worried." Celine was a little guilty, and her face was flushed.
"Haha, the average lifespan of a dark elf is 150 years old. You see, I am young, but I have lived for more than 40 years, so you can't hide it from me... Well, I won't talk about it. I only have the mysteries of the world in my eyes, other It's all a burden." Aloya smiled lightly.
The main reason why she betrayed the dark elves was not because the dark elves were crazy, but because those people could not tolerate her behavior of researching artifacts, let alone anyone who could understand her thoughts.
It just so happened that there was one in the south, so she decisively abandoned the dark elves.
On the other hand, Link has been completely immersed in the content recorded in the spar, and there is only a small part of it that he can fully understand. This part accounts for at most 0.1%, and the remaining 99.9% is completely foggy.
But just because he couldn't understand, Link read more and more vigorously. After coming to this world, he had read countless magic books. For him, those magicians were not difficult at all, and there was no challenge at all. Trouble.
If he can solve these troubles, then he will definitely achieve great achievements!
After watching for more than 20 minutes, Link suddenly used his wand to write a line of concise rune light and shadow in the air, and then said to Aloya beside him, "Is this the core law you comprehend?"
Aloya glanced at it, her eyes narrowed, and she became extremely serious. She looked at it for about a minute, nodded and said: "Almost, the rune array you wrote is simpler than mine, but if you describe it like this, it's just There will be flaws, you see, and I've come to this conclusion... Do you have a pen and paper?"
But she can't use magic like Link, she can only write by hand.
Link handed over the pen and paper, and Aloya wrote while walking. Five minutes later, she handed the parchment back to Link: "This is my conclusion."
Link took it over and looked at it carefully, praising while watching: "It's wonderful, there are many things I didn't think of, but I think you can still modify it like this... Here, you see."
Link handed the sheepskin scroll back again. Aloya looked at it and fell into deep thought. A few minutes later, she wrote the rune array again, and then handed it back to Link.
Link frowned after seeing it, and began to improve again.
Afterwards, on the road, the two of them basically didn't talk, just passed a parchment scroll, a parchment was not big, and soon, it was densely covered with rune arrays, magic energy equations, hypotheses, conjectures, etc. Wait, the mess is full of things that people can't understand at all.
Celine took a few glances and gave up. In her opinion, these runes are not much different from children's graffiti, and she can't understand them anyway.
By the time the two arrived at Scorched Earth Ridge, they had already completely fallen into the world of artifact laws and couldn't extricate themselves.
Link was in a trance. If Celine hadn't been leading the way by his side, he would have walked all the way to the sea. Ai Luoya looks similar, her eyes are scattered, her movements are dull, as if she has lost her soul, and no one knows what is going on in her mind.
Celine was bored by herself, so she could only say to Nana: "Look, Nana, they are going crazy."
Nana's big pure eyes turned back and forth between Link and Aloya, and a clear and pleasant voice sounded: "Master is in such a state, I can beat him a hundred times by myself."
"Well, you know how to fight." Celine pouted.
Ahead is the gate of the Scorched Earth Ridge camp, and a luxurious carriage with a gorgeous style is parked in the small square behind the gate. The carriage has the imprint of the East Valley Academy of Magic. It seems that a big man has arrived.
Celine had to interrupt Link: "Link, wake up, there seems to be a guest in the territory."
"Ah... oh, oh, I see." Link replied perfunctorily.
At this time, Celine had already seen the guest, she stretched out her hand, and twisted the soft flesh around Link's waist with more force: "Oh, it's the dean of East Valley College who is here!"
Now Link was completely awake. He smiled apologetically at Celine, and then returned the magic crystal to Aloya: "You go and rest first, and I will come to you as soon as I am free."
He said to Celine again: "Honey, please arrange Aloya's place for me."
When Link called her baby in the past, Celine would have to refute a few words, but today she didn't make a sound, smiled, and happily took Aloya's hand and left.
"Nana, you can follow me too, you don't need to follow me in the camp. Oh, yes, hand over Emmons to Gridan and tell him not to let this man die."
"Yes, master."
Link walked towards Dean Anthony: "Master Anthony, why are you here?"
Anthony was getting older, his face was full of knife-like wrinkles, and his back was also bent a lot. He looked at the tragic Emmons and felt very strange, but he believed that Link would explain, so he didn't rush to ask.
He sighed and said, "Originally, I came to you to discuss the situation in the north, and relax by the way, but halfway through, I received a letter from Glenn Xi... Now, the matter in the south is more important."
The threat of the artifact in the north is still there, and the army of undead is rising in the south. The Norton Kingdom is really in trouble.
Especially the army of undead, it makes people shudder to think about it. Anthony knows very well that if the opponent is allowed to develop, it will become a catastrophe sweeping the entire continent in less than half a year.
Link looked solemn: "It's just in time for you to come. I also have something to discuss with you. It just happened in Gwent Forest. Well, this should be a good thing."
