"Well... let me tell you, the tide of corpses can't break through the city."
"There were at least a dozen top-notch half-step legendaries last night. It's strange, how come there are so many... Most of the top combat forces in Glory City are probably here."
"Didn't you hear that [Frost Moon Swordsman] Carlo will also come? Where did you get the news?"
"An old friend whose identity is not convenient to reveal."
"oh... "
Wren and Guy are chatting and spanking in the shed. The little girl Naretta was not extraordinary. She was very sleepy, so she curled up in the thatch of the shanty and fell asleep.
When the sky gradually turned green, the city was deserted, with almost no living people.
Everyone was scavenging among the corpses outside the city, and whatever they found was money.
... .
After chatting for most of the night, Ren also learned more about Gaia.
The two of them chatted without a word, talking about everything, extraordinary, martial arts, swordsmanship, and gossip.
Guy is a very talkative guy and knows a lot.
He has wandered around many provinces in the two empires over the years, and his life experience is astonishingly rich. His knowledge is like an encyclopedia, and he feels like he understands everything.
Not just a taste of it, this guy is also proficient in many disciplines, such as astrology, literature, archeology, blacksmithing, alchemy... and so on. He also mastered at least ten local languages of the two empires.
If it weren't for his poor physical condition, Ren thought he was a very romantic guy.
After chatting all night, he really believed what this guy said before. When he was young, he was the dream lover of all the ladies in Sid's upper class society.
It's absolutely impossible to rely on a good skin alone, but this guy is really talented.
This made Ren feel like a lemon for the first time.
With his "intelligent brain database", he could hardly chat with a guy who relies on his brain for memory.
However, talent is talent, and Guy's experience over the past ten years is really heartbreaking to hear.
With one pair of legs, I can travel countless miles alone.
It was the first time that Ren had heard that a man could cross two empires alone in the wasteland with his legs and still survive.
In Guy's own words, he was already determined to die. When his life was no longer at its lowest point, danger would avoid him.
A very philosophical statement.
... .
The early morning light poured over the earth and illuminated the shack.
The soft light shone on Naretta's sleeping little face, and she heard a few murmurs of unknown words, enjoying the short-term peace and tranquility in her dream.
The two of them were chatting, and when they heard the murmur in their sleep, their eyes fell over.
Ren frowned slightly and expressed his opinion: "Naletta's bloodline should be inherited from one generation to the next. If I guess correctly, some of her gene chains may be different from normal humans. I guess she may It's some kind of ancient bloodline... The curse of her bloodline may be a kind of extraordinary power... "
The two have become quite familiar with each other, and Guy has determined that Renn is not a person with "evil intentions".
There was nothing to hide, and he nodded: "Yes. I once saw relevant records in an ancient book. Her bloodline may be a member of the 'cursed clan'."
After a pause, he continued: "I once encountered an ancient cave while traveling. The murals inside recorded a 'Seventy-Two Divine Generals' who had been forgotten by the world. That was the second largest [Nightkeeper] Lavinia. The 'Curse Law Sequence' inherited by that god should be the exclusive inheritance of the 'Curse Clan'... Unfortunately, there is no available extraordinary formula now. Otherwise , Naretta's blood curse may still be under control..."
"The second ranked divine general?"
Ren heard a completely unfamiliar name.
Only part of the inheritance of the Seventy-Two Divine Generals has been handed down, and many of them have been completely cut off. This [Nightkeeper] Lavinia was the name of a god he had never heard of.
Indeed, he had never heard of a "curse sequence" with related potions passed down, not even from his teacher Ilubek.
Thinking about it, Ren asked again: "Have you tried other mysterious potions...such as 'Disaster Sequence' and 'Plague Sequence'?"
"I have also tried other genetic medicines on her. But without exception, they were rejected by her bloodline."
Guy shook his head, sighed slightly, and added: "If she can't find the exclusive advanced potion, the power of the curse in her body will be uncontrollable. Now that she has grown up, that power is getting stronger and stronger. I am anxious... "
"That's really a problem."
Ren also felt a little strange.
This is the first time I heard that transcendent advancement requires exclusive bloodline.
Even Bazel and the other werewolves can advance to other ordinary extraordinary sequences.
However, any sequence with strict inheritance conditions is easy to be lost. If this "cursed sequence" really requires a dedicated bloodline, it is reasonable for it to be lost.
Apparently, Guy had tried many things, but they all failed.
He expressed his worries and said: "And what I'm worried about is that if I die, Naretta's situation will be even worse. No one wants to bring such a 'cursed' person who will bring bad luck... . She does not understand the common language, is unwilling to speak, does not understand the ways of the world, and does not understand the way to make a living... "
Like a kind old father who is dying of illness and nagging.
He knew very well that his physical condition was indeed very bad. In a year and a half at most, the toxins would completely make him lose the ability to walk. By then, I'm afraid
When Guy said this, he looked at Ren again, "In these years, I have met countless people, and there are very few people who will not be affected by the curse. But you, Mr. Doctor, are the most 'righteous' person I have rarely seen."
Ren shrugged, not feeling that the other party was praising him.
In this world where the jungle prevails, the so-called "righteousness" does not seem to be a compliment in the public eye.
Having this kind of trait that is not recognized by mainstream concepts means that you will be in a very bad situation.
For example, this person in front of me.
The former [Sword of Justice] is now a sloppy old man.
As he spoke, Guy looked at Ren and said meaningfully: "Whether it's 'power' or 'intention', it's all about protecting the unshakable faith in your heart. You can realize it if you have a righteous mind and stick to your heart." What you want.”
This is similar to what the great witch Mafa said.
Renn understood something after hearing this, but he always felt that something was missing. He was not surprised that Guy could see that he was at the second-level bottleneck, and asked curiously: "Senior Guy, what sword intention have you understood?"
"My sword intention?"
Hearing this, Guy's turbid eyes were full of emotion, as if someone had untied a scar that he didn't want to mention.
But it seemed that he also wanted to point out Ren En. After pondering for a moment, he didn't hide anything and said: "When I first became a swordsman, I understood the 'Innocent Sword Intent'. My heart was pure, my sword power was natural and my sword edge was clear." Everything you point to is indestructible.”
After a pause, he changed the subject, "However, that big change shattered my state of mind, and my sword intention was also shattered. Over the years, I have re-recognized myself, and I have gained a deeper understanding of the 'Innocuous Sword Intention'." The new sword intention is called... 'Evil does not suppress good'!"
As soon as Guy said this, he didn't make any move, but his momentum suddenly changed. The feeling of being able to clear away the turbidity around you with your momentum and make people's spiritual platform clear and clear appeared again.
Obviously, he intended to give advice and repay the favor, and showed Ren his sword intention without any reservation.
"Does evil prevail over good?"
Renn felt that it was not very real, and the "meaning" was inherently ethereal. Except for himself, outsiders looked at it in a fog.
What's more, he is still a layman who has not understood the "power" of his face, and the "sword intent" is still too far away for him.
Thinking about it, he found another actual reference target and asked tactfully: "Senior Guy, your past and present swordsmanship is higher than the current 'Top Ten Legend' [Frost Moon Swordsman] Carlo, which one is higher?"
"once?"
Guy smiled and shook his head, as if he didn't agree with the term.
He squinted his eyes and pondered for a moment, then his eyes burst out with a gleaming light that looked down on the world, and then he said: "My swordsmanship used to be unmatched by anyone in the world. Now, after I understand the 'Way of the Sword', no one can even match me." And. "
Hearing this,
Instinct told Renn that this guy was showing off.
But his intuition told him that this guy was telling the truth.
Guy smiled, and the aura of looking down on the world instantly dissipated, as if it had never appeared before, "Of course, it's just an understanding of swordsmanship. When it comes to cultivation, I'm a cripple with half of my body buried in the ground, so naturally I'm ten times worse. Eighteen thousand miles away.”
Renn: "..."
At this time, Guy looked at Naretta who was sleeping soundly. He seemed to have suddenly thought of something and hesitated to speak. "Mr. Doctor, can I ask you a favor? If..."
As soon as Ren heard the opening words, he guessed that he was going to ask Gu to do something again.
He rolled his eyes and refused directly: "No! The situation may not be that bad. The toxins in your body..."
Before he finished speaking, just when he was about to say that the poison could be cured, a group of angry guys rushed over.
When Guy looked at the person, he frowned and said to Ren, "I may be in trouble, please stay away from us. Don't get affected."
... .
"Damn God of Plague, it's all your fault for causing me, the Black Wind Territory, to suffer such huge losses!"
The leader is a young man with green hair, wearing a gorgeous woolen coat, with a row of solid gold buttons printed with the family crest on the chest, and tassels on the shoulder straps... This kind of aristocratic clothing is very recognizable, making people instantly recognize him. I can guess that this is a noble.
The young man was followed by a group of guards in armor, with the logo of the group on their epaulettes. This was the city defense security team.
The green-headed man came over and angrily shouted at Guy from a distance: "Guy, you damn guy, get that 'ghost girl' out of my territory quickly! Last night, you let I lost a mechanical city!"
Guy listened silently, like a prisoner acknowledging his crime.
At this time, the quarrel was too loud and woke up Naretta who was sleeping soundly.
Then, a funny scene occurred.
A group of people who were so fierce just now shrank their necks like mice seeing a cat. They no longer dared to approach the hay shed and stopped more than twenty meters away.
These faces vividly express the awkward look of "although I am furious, I just don't dare to take action."
Ren looked at it and raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and suddenly felt that the buff of the "cursed clan" seemed to be very useful. Those with evil intentions would not dare to harm her, but those with good intentions would not hurt her.
Although Naretta didn't understand what happened when she woke up, she felt the malice of the person coming. She stared at the group of people coldly, and returned to her zombie-like expression.
The green-headed man saw his face twitching fiercely, and he didn't dare to speak anymore. He poked the security captain next to him.
The captain with rosacea had no choice but to walk out bravely. Then this guy used the most polite words and gave the most serious order: "Mr. Guy, um... By the order of the city lord, you are expelled. From now on, please leave the city immediately... "
Guy nodded calmly.
If it were anyone else who would have caused such a huge loss to the territory, they would have been torn into pieces long ago.
But they didn't dare to hurt the father and daughter because they were afraid of bad luck.
The inexplicable annihilation of the previous large hunting groups that were unfavorable to this little girl had already proven how evil they were, and no one dared to risk their lives.
Staying in the city was originally just a "bait" for hunting and making some small profits. Now that they have caused so much damage, the adults above have said that they cannot stay in the city, so they have no choice but to bite the bullet and expel them.
Guy's expression didn't change at all, as if he had been used to everything.
Without arguing, he silently packed up the few thin blankets in the hut.
Before leaving, Guy looked at Ren, who was not far away. There were some words he didn't say, but he didn't have the chance to say them. He said goodbye: "Mr. Doctor, see you later."
"..."
Ren frowned as he heard this. He was expelled by the city lord, and he had nothing to do.
But how can these two father and daughter, one disabled and the other not even extraordinary, survive in the crisis-ridden wasteland
Even if living corpses don't threaten them, what about Warcraft? How to solve the problem of food, clothing, housing and transportation? In this wasteland, there may not be a mechanical city for hundreds of kilometers. Where can they go with their legs? (PS. Although they have always come here.)
"Mr. Guy, wait."
Thinking of this, Ren's eyes rolled, and then he took out a few potions in earthen jars, stuffed them directly into Guy's pocket, and whispered: "The ones with red lids are for internal use, and the ones with blue lids are for external use. Once a day, three days." It can detoxify your body."
"???"
Guy looked at the few small tubes in his pocket. He was stunned for a moment, and then his expression suddenly changed.
Detoxification
How can it be!
This toxin is unique to the "Silver Leaf Clan" and has no cure. How could he say such a thing
Guy thought he heard wrongly, but when he saw Ren's serious expression, he saw that the young doctor was serious
If it hadn't been for the long conversation last night, he would have thought this was ridiculous.
But now, he thinks it might be true.
Wren was shocked that this guy knew so much, how could Guy not be equally shocked that he knew everything
Although he didn't know Ren's origin, he also knew that this was not a simple doctor.
Looking at it now, it is indeed the case.
Is there an antidote to my own poison
After so many years, Guy felt that he had never felt the emotion of shock before, and now it was pouring out crazily.
Guy was speechless: "You..."
Ren shook his head, indicating that there was no need to say more: "Take care."
Guy also knew that it was not appropriate to say anything at this moment, so he smiled bitterly and said two words with a complicated expression, "Thank you."
He turned and called the little girl behind him with dull eyes, "Naretta, let's go."
Then, the father and daughter carried their limited luggage and walked slowly toward the city gate, leaving everyone with a gloomy back.
