Half-elf Ranger

the next day.

The bright sunlight came in through the shutters of the hut. Under the orange light, Thorne, who was sitting in the chair, held a quill in his hand, and was busy with the blank paper with a very focused expression.

The light and shadow projected in the hut gradually tilted, and the blank paper was also covered with dense and unsightly text.

I do not know how long it has been……

Thorne finally put down the quill, carefully put away the paper that recorded the words, and immediately moved his slightly sore neck from bowing his head for a long time, and then got up and opened the thin window.

The window sash was wide open, and warm air rushed in greedily from outside the window, raising the dark red curtains high.

Facing the warm spring breeze, Thorne allowed the warm sunshine to spread all over his body, and stood quietly in the same place, looking out through the window sash to the lively street and the twin Valens trees swaying in the wind.

The residents and players of Stallman Town are mostly tieflings, so this town in the middle of the Emerald Fields is very repulsive to outsiders.

As the heirs of the demon blood, tieflings do not have their own country. Because of their exclusion, they can only live in dark corners and alleys even in a civilized society.

Now, under the guidance of Night Lord Anaxis, they finally have their own territory.

Therefore, this small town that accommodates the tiefling race not only belongs to the homeland of the original residents of the tiefling, but also belongs to the homeland of the tiefling players.

As last night's raid on the gnolls ended in a near-successful victory, most of the reclusive tieflings walked out of their stone houses, with a very natural smile on their dark faces, so cold that The town started to get lively.

Looking at the faces that are dominated by light red and dark red, and their strangely shaped horns and unbendable tails, Thorne believes that this lonely town will definitely become lively over time. .

Why do you believe so?

Because more than half of the tieflings in this town are their compatriots from other worlds, although their bodies and blood belong to tieflings, but their souls contain modern civilization.

Thorne looked at a strangely shaped tiefling variant player walking through the crowd, and his expression gradually became weird.

Among these tiefling variants, some are majestic and burly with huge horns, some have cat-like pupils, and even have scales all over their bodies and four arms.

Small horns, sharp fangs, forked tails, and other strange bloodlines of demons are refreshing his three views all the time.

Obviously, the players who can choose an obscure race like tiefling are undoubtedly a group of big hearts, true fans or people who like to make a living.

Today, these surviving tiefling variant players can see from the expressions on their faces that they have adapted to this magical other world and to life in the wilderness.

So as long as these escaped players exist, sooner or later this exclusive town will be ignited by a warm atmosphere.

Of course, the premise of all this is that they can live in peace all the time.

Regardless of success or failure in life, as long as you live with steam, it is the most powerful counterattack to the world.

It may be difficult to live, but it is because it is difficult that it makes sense.

"Dong Dong Dong!"

At this moment, a crisp knock on the door interrupted Thorne's contemplation, and then he withdrew his gaze towards the street, turned and walked over to open the door.

"Crench!"

The door opened, and standing at the door was the tiefling girl he had seen yesterday.

Seeing this lively little tiefling girl, Thorne looked dazed.

He couldn't help thinking of the half-elf girl Lilia, her smile full of life, and the first time he came to this world and was chased by a goblin with a wooden stick in the wilderness, The scene when I met Lilia for the first time.

Thinking of this, he sighed helplessly in the depths of his heart, then looked down at the little girl in front of him, and asked in a calm tone, "Is there something wrong?"

The simple tiefling girl noticed Thorne's gaze, and her freckled little face turned a little red, and immediately glanced at him secretly, explaining her purpose crisply: "Sister Jessica asked me to come here. A word for you."

"Let's talk." Hearing that the succubus paladin asked the little girl to send him a message, Thorne's eyes flashed a trace of doubt, and then he responded, acting as if he was listening carefully.

For this succubus paladin, Thorne was most impressed by her faith.

She is not the Church of the God of Justice with powerful divine power standing behind like the Dragonborn Paladin Peo, she only believes in the purest justice.

As a paladin without a god, her future path will undoubtedly be very difficult.

This is like his ranger magic. If he only relies on himself to comprehend magic in nature, it will consume a lot of his time and energy.

But in the same way, if she really takes her own path as a paladin, then her future growth potential is definitely stronger than that of a paladin dedicated to the gods.

Otherwise, she would not rather endure the backlash caused by the divine energy to herself, and she would insist on walking until she developed divine resistance.

After all, as an inspired paladin, if she is willing, there will be many good gods extending olive branches to her, and she is very happy to use divine power to help her transform her special physique.

However, this paladin chose to rely only on his strong will and efforts to fight against the chaotic and evil nature of being a succubus until he was completely immune to the hidden dangers of his special constitution.

This is like the very few people in the real world who simply give up the superior jobs and generous salaries of big companies and choose to start from scratch.

So, Thorne believes, this is an admirable paladin player.

"Sister Jessica said thank you very much for your help to Stallman Town last night. She will find a chance to return this favor in the future." The tiefling girl lowered her head and pinched the corner of her clothes and whispered.

"Tell her not to be so polite. The reason why I help is just to repay the help the night lord has given me, and there is no other meaning." Thorne said not very concerned.

Getting a paladin in debt is a rare thing, because you never have to worry about those who are righteous and dedicated.

But for Thorne, he deserved this kind of favor. He chose to help last night, indeed, to repay the lord of Stallman Town.

Although he still does not know why the kind lord is so generous in helping him.

"Well, I see, I will help you convey it." The corners of the tiefling girl's mouth rose, slightly revealing two cute little fangs on her upper jaw.

Then she tilted her head and glanced at Thorne's room, and asked in a reluctant tone, "Big brother half-elf, are you leaving Stallman Town today?"

"That's right, I'll be leaving later." Thorne didn't mean to invite the tiefling girl in, but stood at the door and nodded in response.

"Isn't the outside world very exciting?" The tiefling girl's eyes lit up, looking very longing, and then she seemed to think of something, and quickly dimmed, lowered her head and said:

"I really want to go out and see, but Sister Jessica always tells me that this is a world with serious racism, and our tiefling race is a race that cannot be recognized by the world, we can only live here, Is there really no place for racial harmony?"

"The so-called racial harmony is just a slogan preached by a group of deranged idealists. Just be yourself and don't care what others think."

Thorne comforted the innocent little girl with a smile. He originally wanted to reach out and rub her little head, but he thought it was not right, so he endured it.

Hearing Thorne's consolation, the tiefling girl who was about to speak suddenly saw the figure appearing behind Thorne, stunned for a moment, and immediately swallowed what she wanted to say, and quickly said goodbye: "The half-elf Goodbye big brother."

After speaking, he disappeared from Thorne's sight with a cheerful pace.

Thorne watched the lively tiefling girl go, and was a little puzzled by her sudden dazed and reluctant expression.

He didn't think too much about what he didn't understand, so he didn't waste any time, he was ready to clean up, and went to Twilight Town.

However, the moment he turned around, a dark red figure appeared strangely in front of him.

"Night Lord, what's the matter?" Thorne smiled awkwardly and said hello.

Obviously, he doesn't know how to complain about this sorcerer who likes to be invisible.

The only thing that is fortunate is that he has a relatively strong mental quality. If other people turn around and suddenly appear in their sights, an indifferent woman with a dark red head covering her whole body and curved horns on her forehead will not know what to think.

"This is a bottle of blood from an adult red dragon. I gave it to you as a thank you for your help in Stallman Town last night." The sorcerer Anaxis glanced at Thorne lightly and threw it to him. With a delicate glass bottle, he calmly told him:

"I originally planned to give it to Andrina before she left, but I was worried that in order to pursue a powerful power, the newly acquired power would not be stabilized, so I forcibly used it in advance. After thinking about it, I should let it go first. She has settled for a while, and now she will give it to you to deal with."

Andrina's main occupation is warlock, and the advanced occupation is dragon warlock. He is relatively clear about this, and he also knows that Anderina's dragon warlock level does not have the main material of pure dragon blood to carry out the blood purification ceremony. , causing the level to remain stagnant.

Originally, he planned to ask the red dragon player Argotus for some dragon blood, but this guy is a young dragon, and it has no effect on the level of the dragon warlock who has undergone two purification rituals.

Therefore, the matter of looking for the blood of the red dragon has always been on his mind, but he has never found a solution.

What he didn't expect was that he asked Torvey to let the Chamber of Commerce in Waterfall Town go to Sept City to buy things that couldn't be bought at a high price, but unexpectedly got it in Stallman Town.

The reason why the Dragon Vein Sorcerer is called the strongest kryptonite profession among the players is that as long as you have enough money to buy the materials for the blood purification ceremony and pure dragon blood, your strength will increase at a very fast rate .

But there is also a big and no small drawback, that is, it gives you too much power, but you do not have the strong ability to control it, just like a child if you give him a pistol, he can't use it flexibly. , and it is easy to injure others.

And the reason why the sorcerer Anaquis didn't give the dragon's blood to Andrina when she was leaving, you could tell from what she said just now that she had this aspect in mind.

"Is this the benefit of having a high charm attribute." Taking the dragon's blood thrown by the warlock, Thorne sighed inwardly that Andrina's luck was too good.

However, after thinking about it carefully, he realized that it seems that the two have been dating for so long. He actually doesn't know much about Anderina, at least she doesn't know anything about her personal panel and six-dimensional attributes.

Of course, in their player group, everyone's panel attributes belong to personal privacy, and casually snooping on these things is more excessive than the paladin's "detect evil" in the tavern.

"Thank you very much, Lord of the Night." Thorne collected the dragon's blood, said to the warlock with a very solemn expression, and then bowed deeply to her to express his most sincere thanks.

From the first time he left Waterfall Town to Winter City, and then returned again, in the nearly half a year of wandering, Thorne believed that he had gained two very important people and things in his life.

The first is that the Nine Swords Grandmaster of Winter City taught him the moves of the three Nine Swords schools, giving him the capital to lead the way to the strong.

The second is Andrina, the sorceress who he brought all the way from Winter City to Fallstown. At this time, she has become an indispensable half of his life.

But the reason why he was able to capture Andrina's heart was that in the whole process, the one who really played a decisive role was the sorcerer Anaxis in front of him.

When he finished casting the sword and left Stallman Town, it was the sorcerer's persuasion to Andrina that the two met outside the town.

Without her persuasion and his own clumsy responses, the beautiful sorceress would likely have been living in Stallman, and their meeting would have been forgotten over time.

In fact, he only reacted to this matter when he saw the sorcerer again yesterday.

This is also the main reason why he voluntarily agreed to help them raid the gnoll together before the other party spoke.

Just like what he said to the tiefling girl who had just left, he was just to repay the kindness of the night lord.

Therefore, he deserves the favor of the paladin.

"It seems that you have already guessed it, but it is quite clever, and it is not like the head of Andrina's child said that it is like a piece of... wood."

Noticing Thorne's sincere gratitude, a faint smile appeared on the corner of the Warlock's mouth, and he also understood why the Ranger was so cheerful yesterday.

The sorcerer who wanted to understand the reason stopped talking, nodded with satisfaction to Thorne, and disappeared without a trace without saying hello.

Seeing the sorcerer leave suddenly, Thorne sneered inwardly at the sorceress who complained that he was like a wood in front of outsiders, so he didn't waste any time, and immediately packed his things, ready to finish the last thing, leave quickly.

Thorne, who walked out of the house, lowered the brim of his hat, walked through three or four disorderly alleys composed of twin Valens trees and stone houses, and came to Master Kairon's residence again.

He first stood in front of the door and quietly felt the movement in the house. After being silent for a while, he blessed himself with the second-ring magic "silence", and carefully pushed open the door and walked in.

In the quiet house, as usual, he was greeted by a rush of heat.

Thorne glanced around lightly, and found that Master Kairon's reclining chair had been wiped clean, and the tiefling player with facial burns had also changed into a clean clothes.

However, he was still sitting at a marble table full of various enchanting props, fiddling with an unfinished explosive arrow with a concentrated expression.

Thorne walked quietly to the tiefling player and waited quietly for the opponent to complete the explosive arrow in his hand, and then the effect of "silence" was lifted, and he said to the serious tiefling player. : "It's so lively outside, why don't you go out for a walk."

A very abrupt voice made the tiefling player jump, and then he quickly covered his scalded face with his long hair, looked at Thorne in surprise, and said in a low hoarse voice: "You are not the same. "

"That's true." Thorne laughed, then took out a stack of alchemy knowledge copied by him from the dimension bag, put it on the table of the tiefling player, met his doubtful eyes, and explained to him:

"These are all the production methods and some alchemy knowledge about burst arrows recorded in the arcane empire period. I hope they can help you."

After the war against the gnolls ended last night, he immediately used the message stone to contact Andrina, and asked her to ask the goblin wizard Malvasia for some enchanting knowledge about making burst arrows, and then spent a long time Transcribe it all.

"Thanks a lot!" The tiefling player stared at the stack of papers on the table. Although the handwriting was not very elegant, he could see that all of them were just transcribed, so he immediately got up and prepared to salute Thorne to thank him.

"Don't be so polite. After all, the death of Master Kailong has a lot to do with me. If I don't do this, I will feel very sorry." Thorne stopped the other party's thanks and reminded:

"There are a few more sheets that describe how to engrave the knowledge of the protective magic circle. With this energy protective magic circle, you don't have to worry about the damage caused by the failure of the enchantment when making explosive arrows."

After Thorne finished speaking, he felt a lot more comfortable, so he didn't say any more, and turned and left.
