Chapter 790: The Man Favored by Fate
"Henry! Why are you here? ”
Tyrantil was stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly glanced at everyone present, and when he saw that the two little loli were intact, he immediately put away his chilling momentum, and restored his usual amiable old grandfather image.
However, Karan, who had already seen his angry appearance just now, trembled in his heart, thinking that these two elders of the little family were really terrifying, but fortunately nothing happened, otherwise the consequences would be much more terrible than the giant snake.
"Grandpa Tyrantiel, you're here, father, he's going to take me back and be punished." The quick-witted Liv saw the old mage as if she had seen a savior, and quickly pounced on him and pretended to be cute, and did not forget to turn around and make a grimace at Henry.
Obviously, in her eyes, the old man is easier to deal with than her own parents, at least she doesn't have to worry about the safety of her buttocks and palms, you must know that when the children make mistakes, Shi Kodi often uses the corporal punishment commonly used by nobles, such as beating the butt with a rattan stick, or beating the palm with a bamboo board.
The old mage touched the girl's hair dotingly and said, "Don't worry, you are now my apprentice, and no one can ask me to punish you until you completely graduate." ”
"Hooray! I knew you were the best. As soon as Liv heard that she didn't have to go home and be punished, she immediately jumped up with her little fist.
"Hehe, don't be in a hurry to rejoice, that doesn't mean I won't punish you. In the midst of your adventure, I've decided to forbid you to leave the Mage Tower for the next half a year, learn the basics, and learn to control your own excited brain. ”
After saying that, Tyrantil ignored Liv's objections. A mantra was recited. Teleported back to the Mage Tower at Baldur's Gate.
Pack up your apprenticeship. He turned his head and beckoned to Elenia, "Come here, kid." You are now a magic archer and need to learn magic knowledge systematically, and you need to become at least a first-level mage to control those manic energies, just in time for your sisters. ”
"Yes, Master." The elf little Lori bowed to Kahlan and the others very obediently, and took the elven hound Dorothy to the old mage's side.
"What a good boy, I believe you will definitely become an excellent magic archer in the future." As he spoke, the old mage cast a teleportation spell again. Returned Elenia and her dog to the Mage Tower.
As the two little ones left, Tyrant immediately focused on the corpse of the Serpent of Madness, Kareson.
"This guy is a descendant of the snake god Mersok? It doesn't look like it's very strong......" he muttered as he crouched down and sniffed lightly with a little dark red snake blood on his hand. "It's strange that the divinity is not very strong, why is it so exaggerated in the poem?"
Hearing the old man's words, Karan, Demps, and Ashley couldn't help but glance at each other, and they could see the bitterness and helplessness in each other's eyes.
Not strong?
For them, the giant serpent was simply an invincible enemy, and the sword, magic, and even the fist of the warrior monk comparable to a magic weapon, this qiē did not do much damage, if it were not for Henry falling from the sky. Now everyone is estimated to have been waiting in the belly of the snake for a long time to digest.
For most adventurers, ogres and giants are already very difficult opponents. Trolls, especially hordes of trolls, are absolutely invincible, and the golems, lichs, vampires, dragons, and ancient mummies are all monsters that only exist in legends, not to mention the descendants of terrifying gods.
The huge gap created by this strength gap cannot be bridged by wisdom at all, so generally speaking, whoever encounters it can only consider himself unlucky, and if he escapes, he will count his luck, and if he can't escape, he will resign himself to fate.
However, a few people present did not express Xiàn too frustrated, but there was a trace of joy on their faces, they were glad for themselves from the bottom of their hearts, if it wasn't for the kindness of taking in two little Loli scurrying around halfway, I'm afraid that someone would come to the rescue at the critical moment, maybe this is the so-called good people have good rewards.
Kahlan is a very open-minded person, and in his eyes, as long as people live, it is good, so he directly took off the magic ring on his hand and sent it to Henry with both hands.
"What does that mean?" The corners of Henry's mouth turned up slightly, and he asked with a playful smile.
"This is the payment your daughter paid for hiring us, and as an adventurer, I don't have the face to hold it after the mission fails, so it's better to return it to you." After speaking, Kalan's eyes showed a hint of reluctance.
As a magical item that can be freely transformed into any Mithril weapon or shield, this ring is a priceless treasure for all adventurers, and many people are even willing to sacrifice their loyalty and lives for it, and if it is sold on the market, it will cost at least tens of thousands of gold coins.
Although he wanted to take it for himself, he finally resisted his greed and resolutely decided to return it to its original owner.
Looking at the firm eyes of the middle-aged man in front of him, Henry felt the principles and bottom line adhered to by the other party, and couldn't help but nod secretly, and at the same time thought: Sure enough, he is a person chosen by fate, no wonder he will participate in the historical process of the entire Faeron Continent one day in the future, and this character alone is worthy of admiration.
Instead of retrieving the ring, he took out a topaz-carved amulet from the dimensional pouch and placed it in Kahran's hand: "These are what you deserve, and anyone who dares to stand up and sacrifice themselves at a critical moment should be rewarded accordingly." ”
"You're the most generous I've ever met, two magic items, maybe my life isn't worth that much." Karan glanced at the topaz talisman he had just acquired, and his face showed a hint of helplessness.
Emotionally speaking, he didn't want any reward at all, because it was against the principle to accept the reward on the premise of not completing the task, but reason told him that if he missed this opportunity, he would regret it for the rest of his life, so his heart was extremely entangled.
"No, your life is worth much more than that, and perhaps one day in the future, the name of Kahlan will resound across the continent, and bards will be vying to tell you the story of your adventures." Henry, apparently seeing the other man's hesitation, smiled and patted him on the shoulder. Said meaningfully.
Karan clearly didn't hear the meaning. He shook his head with a wry smile: "This joke is not funny. I'm already at this age, and in three or five years at most, my body will decline significantly, and I can only retire and go home to find another job, how can I become the protagonist of an adventure story. ”
"You know what? There is a kind of person in this world who spends his whole life preparing and repeating, doing things that seem to be so inactive, but all so that one day, he will show his most precious qualities. That moment. He is like a meteor streaked across the sky, instantly releasing a brilliant light that even the sun cannot reach. It seems to me that you ...... That's the kind of person you are. You have to learn to believe in yourself, because this is the choice of fate, and whether you escape it or accept it, it will inevitably come to you. ”
Henry's tone of voice was extremely sincere, and everyone present could clearly feel it, because of someone with such terrifying power as him. There is no need to lie at all to an adventurer with a career level of no more than ten.
"I ...... Will I have such a day? Kahlan asked, somewhat uncertain.
He has always felt that he can't be ordinary anymore, the most ordinary warrior qualifications. The mediocre level of fighting, the reason why he can break through the name of "iron wall" is completely hard training day after day, others practice for three hours a day, he forces himself to practice for six hours, and even then he has not been able to surpass those real geniuses.
Although the words just now made him instantly resonate, as if there was a hot blood surging on the top of his head in his chest, he was quickly suppressed by reason, and he looked at Yiqiē again as an adventure veteran.
"Trust me, there will be such a day. Your life is destined to be great, and when fate comes, you can activate the spell on the amulet, and I may be able to give some help to the best of my ability. After saying that, he ignored Karan, who was in a sluggish state, and continued to take out a magic item from the dimensional bag and distribute it to the remaining three.
Demps got the robes of the warrior monk: "Perseverance", a robe that is equivalent to leather armor and can deflect attacks and increase the speed of wound healing, which Henry obtained in the sewers of Ascatla, and can only be worn by the warrior monk.
Ashley was given a "pitch-shifting harp" for the Bard, which, if played with it, could cause all creatures to be confused for thirty seconds, a very useful magical item.
As for the "rice bucket", it gets a "defensive helmet" that provides more protection when charging.
However, his appearance is really ugly, and his brain also has a strict defect, he can neither speak nor read any words, coupled with his natural strength, quick movements, and strong physique, which reminds Henry of those wonderful warriors in the game who are charming, intelligence, wisdom, strength, agility, and constitution.
But that's a deliberate adjustment made by the player in order to maximize the combat effectiveness of his character, and in reality, if someone looks like this, I'm afraid they will commit suicide by jumping into the river without saying a word.
Of course, the premise is that they can still have normal thinking and aesthetic ability at this time, otherwise they will be like a "rice bucket", living a nightmare in a mess, and there is nothing else in life except eating, sleeping and fighting.
Henry didn't know if this was a sad thing, after all, the biggest difference between intelligent beings and beasts was that they were good at thinking, and once they lost this ability, there was no difference between living and dying, at least he thought so.
"Rice Bucket" is quite lucky in a way, he met a good guy Karan, otherwise the end would have been very miserable, and it is estimated that it will not be long before he will be used by evil people, and finally die in a fierce battle.
The four members of the adventure team took their leave after receiving the reward, and it was only at last that they realized who was standing in front of them, and they were all shocked.
With the spread of the bard of the Elven Realm, Henry's name had spread throughout the West Coast within a few months, with the southerners calling him the "Dragon Rider" and the northerners preferring to call him the "Destroyer".
As expected, in Uster. After the news of the destruction of Nasa Cheng came out, all the countries and forces were stunned, some people felt that he had done a good job, and that he should use this tough posture of tooth for tooth and blood for blood to deal with evil, while others felt that such a means of destroying the character was obviously excessive, and there was no need to do so desperately.
All of a sudden, the guests of inns and taverns everywhere were arguing over the matter. But one thing is very clear, and that is when someone mentions Henry. When the name Ange Mei is called, he will subconsciously show a look of awe, even if he does not agree with his style of acting, he does not dare to insult him.
For a terrifying spellcaster who has the ability and dares to wipe out tens of thousands of cities, except for a very small number of madmen, no one is willing to provoke at all, not even evil organizations. (To be continued......)
