The lone wolf of Freyrdrand

Riven

The white-haired woman’s sword skills are simple, direct and effective. She opens and closes wide and wide. She clearly holds a dagger, but she insists on unleashing the power of a heavy weapon.

But she didn’t wear protective gear, and there were quite a lot of people in the fraternity. Some cunning people deliberately went around behind her, ready to [source; group]: 9? 8; 0; 2? . 0′. 5,,8 “5.; 6 Prepare the lower Yin knife.

Luo originally wanted to help the white-haired woman, but she showed quite a seasoned combat quality. She grabbed a gangster by the neck with her bare hands, and threw him behind her, smashing the brotherhood members who were waiting for an opportunity to attack.

“It’s so strong.” Luo exclaimed for a moment, but caught a glimpse of a cold light out of the corner of his eye.

The fraternity member with the rifle hid behind a tree, raised the gun and aimed at [resources’ group]: 9? 8; 0; 2? . 0′. 5,,8″5.;6 for a white-haired woman.

Luo has experienced the power of the rifle, and that thing can seriously injure a person even if he does not die.

The white-haired woman turned her head sharply. She seemed to have noticed the firearm hidden in the dark, but the rifle holder was too far away from her, and it was basically impossible to rush over.

“Go to hell!” The owner of the rifle also noticed that he had been spotted by the white-haired woman, and he didn’t hide. Bitches get blasted out of a hole.

But he didn’t have a chance to pull the trigger.

“Ah!” He screamed and threw away the rifle, and a flickering ice knife pierced his palm.

The little girl named Mina reacted quickly, and directly abandoned the little brotherhood leader who had been trampled to the point of foaming at the mouth by her, and quickly ran to the forest to pick up the rifle that the man dropped: “Hahaha! You lose!” La!”

At the same time, the white-haired woman brought down all those who besieged her, and Luo Ye used an ice throwing knife to bring down the members of the fraternity blocking the head and tail of the convoy.

Everyone in the convoy has not yet realized what is going on. They were still in fear of their lives and wealth just now. Why did it take only a short while for these bandits and bullies to lie on the ground?The team leader ran to the white-haired woman gratefully: “Thank you! Thank you!”

The white-haired woman had no expression on her face, she just put her strange dagger around her waist: “You don’t need to thank me.”

The leader of the convoy looked at the screaming bandits all over the floor: “They… what should they do? The Brotherhood won’t take revenge on us, right?”

The white-haired woman spoke very slowly: “I didn’t kill you, find some people to collect their weapons and tie them to a tree. Let’s get out of here quickly, before the fraternity can find us.”

“Yes… yes…” The team leader was a little surprised by the white-haired woman’s accent, but he didn’t think much about it, and hurriedly ordered others to do it.

The white-haired woman put her hood back on and turned to look into the forest: “There is a mage who helped us.”

The leader of the “Mage” team followed the white-haired woman’s gaze, and sure enough, a strange young man walked out of the forest.

“Hello.” Luo tried his best to make his expression look benign and harmless, “Can I go with you?”

…

Although it took a lot of explaining, Luo was finally accepted by the team.

In fact, Luo didn’t really want to join the convoy, he could reach the town just like following them, and he didn’t have to spend time making up lies, but Luo still joined.

The reason is that white-haired woman.

Late at night, the convoy set up camp and lit a bonfire. Several farmers asked the earth to grow fresh mushrooms and wild vegetables for them. Several hunters went to hunt a few small animals for everyone to eat. Now they are kneeling on the ground to thank them death.

Luo quietly watched this scene. The hunters prayed for their prey. He had seen it a few times in Ionia, but every time he saw it, he couldn’t help being fascinated.

“Big Brother!” The little girl’s shout interrupted Luo’s thoughts.

It was that brave girl named Mina, she was chewing beetroot, squatting in front of Luo: “Are you really a mage?”

Luo smiled faintly, and an ice cube appeared in the palm of his hand: “Of course.”

“Wow…” Mina looked at the crystal-clear ice enviously, “Mages must be very powerful, right?”

“Not necessarily, but it should have some advantages over people who don’t know magic.”

“It’s a pity that I don’t have the talent for magic.” Mina sighed, but immediately regained his energy, “I am determined to become a hero who eliminates the strong and helps the weak! Although I don’t know magic and am still a girl, I will definitely do it !”

Luo didn’t know how to answer the conversation, this girl was a little too familiar.

In a good mood, Mina walked around to the other side of the fire, where the white-haired woman was sitting, staring at the flames silently.

Ever since the white-haired woman showed her amazing fighting power, everyone in the motorcade was in awe of her and didn’t dare to get too close. They even built a dedicated fire for her.

But there is another reason why other people don’t want to get close—the white-haired woman’s appearance is obviously not Ionian, and her accent also confirms this.

The only person who was willing to sit next to the white-haired woman was Luo.

Luo carefully looked at the white-haired woman. Her appearance was very delicate, full of the beauty of a girl, but full of fortitude and full of heroic spirit. The short white hair was tied into a simple bun, and the overall feeling was very capable. .

After taking off the cloak, she revealed her body curve, with streamlined muscular lines on her upper arms. Judging from her combat performance, she must have considerable strength, definitely much stronger than most men.

She wiped off the blood on the strange-looking short sword, wrapped it in a cloth strip, and put it next to her luggage. Luo knew it must be a magic weapon. He saw the rune engraved on the blade with his own eyes, but he I don’t know anything about runes at all, and I don’t know what magical power this knife has.

Non-Ionians, rune magic weapons, powerful force, these elements appear in a person, no matter how you think about it, you will feel that her identity is not simple.

But Luo didn’t pay much attention to these, he only cared about one thing – her white hair.

“Like…” Luo looked straight at the white-haired woman, and the more she looked, the more she looked like the woman he had seen in his memories.

The white-haired woman ignored Mina who was asking around beside her. She looked up at Luo: “Is there something on my face?”

Luo’s heart skipped a beat, and he found that his face started to feel a little hot. This was obviously his only reaction when facing Xia.

“That…” Luo touched the back of his neck, “Can you tell me your name?”

The white-haired woman frowned slightly.

Mina looked at Luo seriously: “Brother, you are really active in chasing girls.”

Luo smiled awkwardly.

The white-haired woman was silent for a while, then said, “During the day, you helped me.”

“It’s just a matter of raising your hands.”

Section 150

“You don’t seem to know magic. Have you ever practiced martial arts for throwing knives?”

Luo herself didn’t know if she had practiced martial arts before. The skill of using the flying knife was not taught by Xia. Her feather blades were all controlled by magic, which had nothing to do with martial arts.

The skill of using the falling flying knife seems to have existed in his mind. It was Lilia who awakened his memory for him for the first time, together with the magic power. However, the effect of his martial skill is far inferior to his magic. .

“Well… I just learned a little from Orion in my hometown.” Luo casually made up a lie.

“The person who taught you is quite powerful.” The white-haired woman said.

Luo felt as if she saw that she was lying, but she didn’t expose it.

The white-haired woman is definitely not Ionian, she said that IonianThe Chinese is very jerky, and there are several pronunciation and grammatical errors in one sentence.

“My name is Luo.” Luo took the initiative to say his name.

“My name is Mina!” The little girl also interjected.

The white-haired woman still didn’t speak.

She just stared at the fire with stagnant water in her eyes.

After a long time, she sighed.

“My name is Riven.”

Runes are words with magic. Depending on the region, different languages ​​or pictures are used to write runes, such as Ionian spells and Freljord shaman totems.

However, rune crafting is a very difficult technique, and it takes a lifetime of rape to achieve something. This also makes the spread of rune techniques in various regions extremely difficult, and many of them have been completely lost.
