The lone wolf of Freyrdrand

Parting

Lothar stood in the bamboo forest, turned his hands into fire, covered his hands with ice, and two extreme forces, one hot and one cold, unexpectedly appeared on him alone.

Lothar’s fists were on fire, and he threw a few punches. The number of moves is the most basic horse stance boxing method in Shuoji Temple. It is usually practiced for children, but in Lothar’s hands, it is extremely shocking. With a sound of piercing through the air, raging flames turned into tongues of flame and rolled towards Li Qing.

Li Qing clasped his hands together and chanted scriptures. A spiritual shield woven by magic protected his whole body, and Lothar’s dragon flame failed to penetrate.

“Huh…” Lothar let out a breath that he had held for a long time, “Master, I feel like I can almost control a little bit of the dragon’s power.”

“En.” Li Qing nodded and said, “The power of the dragon is wild and difficult to tame. It’s really good that you can make such progress.”

“Then can I go down the mountain?”

“Actually, I suggest that you practice some more, but I think you’re ready to return to your heart.” Li Qing said, “Shenlong requires people to be strict with themselves, and at the same time follow their heart. Too much suppression of one’s desires will be counterproductive.”

“Then I can go?” Lothar said happily.

“Well, you are from the Freljord, maybe going to that bitter cold place will help you practice.”

“Thank you, master!” Lothar bowed sincerely to Li Qing, “I will definitely repay this kindness!”

“Well, I believe we will meet again.” Li Qing sat cross-legged on the ground, “Shenlong is the spirit of Ionia. Since it has given you strength, you will return to this land sooner or later.”

“Okay.” Lothar formed a layer of frost on his body, froze all the sweat on his body, and then shook it off. “If there is a chance, I will bring my wife to Ionia to see.”

“You have a wife? So young”

“Any questions?”

“It’s nothing.” Li Qing shook his head, “It seems that Shenlong chose you as [root] for no reason.”

Lothar shrugged. He didn’t think there was anything wrong with inheriting [Root]. The Freljord basically had reproductive worship, and even the totems of some tribes were the reproductive organs of animals. In his eyes, this was very normal.

“Where’s Akali?” Lothar didn’t see the crazy girl.

“She asked Hui Ning to accompany her to catch crickets. Hui Ning also went to the temple to explain the scriptures, so she ran into the woods alone.”

Lothar laughed: “It seems that I have been busy practicing these days, so I am angry that I didn’t play with her.”

Li Qing slowly removed the bandage on his forearm, and pointed to the bamboo forest next to him: “There is nothing wrong with children being playful, you can go find her, she is going in that direction.”

Lothar walked into the bamboo forest, and wherever he went, green shoots would emerge from the ground.

“Huining said that the essence of [root]’s power is not just flames, but also life.” Lothar touched his chest, “Her power is not just ice, but also rebirth and nirvana… I still have healing Blood magic… Calculated in this way, isn’t it true that I can’t die at all?”

Lothar was in a strange mood. The life force that Darkwill dreamed of had three kinds in his body at the same time. Although blood magic was the weakest among them, Lothar always felt that it was the power that suited him best, because it The strength was cultivated by him step by step from scratch, while the other two kinds borrowed external forces.

Lothar stared with bated breath, weakening the breath of life he exuded, and only after the lettuces no longer grew at his feet did he begin to carefully search for Akali.

Tracking is what Lothar is best at. After a while, he found a series of small footprints leading to the depths of the bamboo forest.

Section 131

Lothar ran along the footprints. After the dragon entered his body, his body seemed to be reborn. His strength and endurance had grown by leaps and bounds, and he exuded boundless energy.

“When I go back, I must wrestle with that big stupid Olaf. If he loses, I’ll laugh at him so hard that his beard will stand on end.”

Lothar ran happily, without the cold pain, heIt feels like doing anything is a kind of enjoyment.

Just as Lothar was following Akali’s footprints, a large net suddenly fell from above his head.

Lothar didn’t raise his head, and several blood crystal flying knives shot towards the sky, cutting the big net into pieces.

“You want to trap me again, do you want to get spanked?” Lothar found Akali hiding behind a bamboo bush.

“Unlucky!” Akali slapped her forehead and walked out with a disappointed expression on her face. “It’s obvious that I succeeded the first time.”

Lothar put his hand on Akali’s head: “I haven’t played with you these days, are you lonely?”

“Who is lonely! Do you think you can’t play without me! I have so many fun things!” Akali took out a lot of things from her pocket, such as cicada sloughs, bamboo flowers, strange-shaped stones, etc. thing.

Lothar really thinks that Akali is very similar to himself. I was like this when I was a child. I had no playmates, and basically I could only entertain myself in the wild, looking for fun and things to do by myself, because no one cared about what you did.

Lothar took Akali’s hand: “Let’s go, let’s say goodbye to Master Li Qing and the others.”

“You don’t need to practice anymore?” Akali’s eyes lit up.

“Master Li Qing agreed with me to go down the mountain.”

“It’s great…I mean, it’s too bad.” Akali sighed, “It’s going to be a hard journey with you again.”

“You don’t want to? I’ll leave you here.”

“Do you have the heart to lose such a cute little girl!”

“Where is the cute little girl?”

“Wow wow wow wow!”

Fighting and walking back with Akali, a small figure blocked their way.

“Kenan!” Akali saw the fluffy little man in the purple ninja suit, and immediately rushed forward to catch him, but still made no progress. “Why are you here?”

Lothar also looked curiously at Kenan, who kept circling back and forth, with lightning and afterimages. He occasionally saw other yordles in Ionia these days, but every time he saw it, he felt very magical.

“You are safe.” Kenan greeted Lothar, “Or should I say, congratulations on eradicating your illness.”

“You can see it.” Lothar marveled at the yordle’s eyesight.

After saying hello, Kenan looked at Akali, who had been cheering and trying to grab him: “I’m going to take you back.”

Akali froze all of a sudden.

“The sect decided to call everyone to discuss a matter, and everyone was recalled.” Kenan’s childlike voice was extremely serious at this time, “The result of the discussion may determine the future destiny of the sect, and all Kinkou disciples have to witness .”

“What’s the matter?” Akali could probably guess it, but she still wanted to confirm it.

Kenan didn’t say anything.

Lothar realized: “Do I need to avoid it?”

“No need.” Akali sighed for a long time, seeming to have let go of all the mischievousness just now, “I’ll go back…”

Lothar looked down at the little girl, her face rarely showed real worry: “Is there anything I can do for you?”

“No……”

“Really not”

“Really not.” Akali patted her face vigorously, her face rejuvenated, and said to Lothar with her hips on her hips, “It’s just the saying that there is no such thing as ramen in the world!”

“There is no banquet in the world that never ends.” Kenan corrected.

“The meaning is the same!” Akali looked at Lothar, “You also healed your body, I have had enough fun these days, it is time to say goodbye, don’t cry because you are lonely because you are away from me. ”

Lotha suddenly realized that he was really reluctant to part with the girl who had been with him for several months. He smiled slightly: “Don’t worry, you can cry once or twice at most.”

“That’s about the same. Will you come to Ionia to play with me in the future?” Akali asked.

“possible.”

“Don’t say it’s possible!” Akali stepped on Lothar’s foot hard, “Say it’s certain!”

Lothar stared into Akali’s eyes, and the little girl’s eyes were more serious than ever.

“Okay, sure.” Lothar nodded heavily.

“A few years”

“Well… how many years did you say”

“When I become an adult…at most seven years!”

“Okay, just seven years.”

Akali stretched out her little finger: “Come and pull the hook.”

“What is a pull hook?”

“Don’t worry about it, just pull it first?”

“Oh……”

Akali and Lothar hooked each other’s little fingers, and the little girl shook their hands, and began to sing in a strange tune: “Hang yourself on the hook! You can’t change it for a hundred years! Those who break their trust will swallow nine thousand nine hundred and ninety” Nine needles!”

“What is this… a curse?”

“This is an agreement!”

“How can there be such a scary agreement.”

“If there is, then there is!”

There was a “sizzling” electrical sound, and Kenan interjected, “It’s almost there, Akali.”

“I see…” Akali let go of Lothar’s hand, her small face stiffened, “I will go back and practice hard, and I will definitely make you kneel and beg for mercy when we meet next time!”

“Yes.” Lothar rubbed Akali’s head vigorously for the last time, “I’m looking forward to it.”

The Ionian hook oath is a popular convention tradition among children and lovers.

The two parties made an agreement in advance by raising each other’s little fingers, and then sang the consequences of violating the agreement, and the agreement was deemed to be effective.

The content root of the songIt varies from place to place, but they are generally bloody curses, such as swallowing a thousand needles alive, being bitten by ants, falling into the poisonous toad swamp, growing bones into tree trunks, and dropping eyeballs into soup. like that.

As for whether it works or not, no one knows.
