Son of the Olden Days

Chapter 166: Scarlet Stele

"I'm afraid I can't help you, because I am not an official adventurer, and I have my own adventure route." Sol leaned on the door frame and shook his head.

Adventurers...are there formal and informal? Lorna blinked suspiciously. The guy in front of him was obviously full of guard. This might be an excuse for him to shirk temporarily, Lorna judged it secretly.

"I mean I don't have the formal qualifications of the Adventurer's Guild, and compared to other adventurers, I won't stay in a certain area or adventurous environment for long. Actually, I'm on a journey." To Lorna's doubts, Saul added.

"I don't think it matters. Strictly speaking, this is only a short **** journey. You send me to the lake to complete some things, and then send me to the main city of Candela Territory for printing. "Lorna still tentatively didn't give up.

Kayin City? It is indeed on your own path. Is this a coincidence? Saul thought.

"I heard that the lake is dangerous. What are you going to accomplish by the lake?" Sol said again.

"There are four earthly steles in the four directions of the south, east, north and west on this continent. It is said that there are ancient writings left before the ancient kingdom calendar. The southern stele is on the bank of Aiming Lake. I am entrusted by my instructor to obtain a stele. Rubbings of the text." Lorna answered fluently.

Earth stele? This is an unknown field that Sol has never heard of, and naturally there is no way to judge the truth of the matter.

"Are you sure you want to refuse the invitation from a beautiful, weak and helpless lady?" Seeing Sol groaning, Lorna blinked her eyes seductively, revealing a confident and bright smile, as if things were back again. In her control.

"Being beautiful can only be considered barely, but it's not enough for a woman to be beautiful. If there is no corresponding wisdom and temperament, it will be like a pillow filled with rotten cotton."

"And your Tier 3 strength is here, but you have to forcibly wear a weak hat. It's like telling me that wolves have started to eat grass recently. Well, since you have to be me, then wait for me to change clothes. ."

Sol looked at Lorna critically from start to finish, then raised her chin slightly as if to indicate the height difference between each other, and finally dropped these words, turned around and changed her clothes.

The closing breeze once again caused Lorna's blue hair to flutter, and she trembled slightly, feeling that it had been a long time since she had thought about killing anyone.

You are the rotten cotton, you are the wolf that eats the grass, and you have to, I babble!

Lorna forced the Sol-type villain to a corner in the fantasy, and then carried out a brutal beating, until the other party vomited blood and knelt down and begged for mercy, and only slightly calmed the raging anger in her chest.

In the room, Saul put a black coat on his body, then carefully smoothed the folds, and pulled the edges and corners of the entire coat. An ordinary old dress was worn by him with a sense of pilgrimage.

The reason why he is dressed so contrived is that Saul's mind is not on the clothes. He is thinking about how true this random event is, and what the girl's real purpose is.

What Sol said is really the point. It feels like ‘I can’t do it’, or that the girl is like a dead skin trying to trick him to the lake, but what's there on the lake?

In the end, Saul decided to follow it. If the opponent really hides some strength and has any malice at the same time, then even if he hides in a hotel, it doesn't make much sense.

Of course, the reason for being so calm now is that Thor has recently had some new ways to save his life, instead of having to shake everything with bare buttocks like before, life and death are random.

Regarding the fly spell and the short-distance random teleportation scroll, Sol also wanted to find a chance to try it. In case it is really a fake and he is not dead, he must hunt down to the north to press Igrit on his leg and swell her ass.

After checking all the gadgets he had on his body, Thor opened the door again.

The moment he opened the door, he saw the original grievance expression on Lorna's face, suddenly and forcibly distorted it to a large extent, and instantly put it together into a sweet smile.

"So formally meet me, I am honored to experience an adventure together, I am Lorna Emilton, from Pandora, you can call me Lorna." The girl stretched out her little white hand and tried to release her eyes with a wink. bona fide.

Seeing Lorna's instant face change skills just now, Thor naturally won't be fooled by these sweet illusions.

"Sol." After a brief sentence, Sol moved the corner of his mouth and bounced back, revealing a half-smiling smile. She didn't shake hands with Lorna, she just held her hands and turned a misty gaze to the wall next to her, as if there were ants fighting on it.

That inexplicably proud and ugly face made Lorna's beautiful eyebrows twitch violently, and she suddenly turned and rushed towards the stairs with her skirt.

Saul looked at her with a little amusement. The girl looked angry or angry, but how could the team seem to be broken? It was really strange.

"Be careful, don't roll down." Sol looked at the girl's frantic back, who seemed to jump straight down the stairs, kindly reminded him.

Lorna on the stairs staggered abruptly, this damned fellow, why would a good word come out of his mouth, but let her anger go up?

Outside the hotel, a man and a woman were chatting enthusiastically, and they dressed like adventurers and mercenaries.

The man is less than 30 years old, has shawl hair, two small beards, and his face is very clean. He wore a hard leather armor, a full set, even the kind of knee pads, judging by the dagger in the waistband, he might be a thief.

The female single ponytail, she is in her early twenties, with a slightly attractive appearance and a good figure. She wears a lightweight leaf armor for women, made of metal. She had a thin female sword slung around her waist, just like Saul had seen on Anne Baez.

However, the thin sword has several categories. The extreme blade is as thin as a sewing needle. This kind of sword is mainly pierced by piercing and has extremely high requirements on sword skills.

The common ones are like the woman in front of me, with a thin back and narrow blade, which neither loses the penetrating power of a thin sword nor lacks the sharpness of chopping, but this kind of sword requires a little arm strength for women.

The disadvantage of a thin sword is that it is not suitable for blocking, otherwise the blade can easily be broken off vigorously.

The metal light armor on this woman seemed to be a swordsman.

Thor also used a sword, but the original iron sword and the iron sword given by Lotton were sold by Thor in the ancient capital of Carlot and replaced with a steel long sword.

And Saul didn't like to use shields very much. He only lengthened the hilt a little bit and wrapped it in a wrapping cloth. In this way, when facing the enemy, you can hold the sword with both hands to increase the chopping strength, but it is not like the two-handed sword or the two-handed sword that requires arm strength and fatigue.

The four people got together, introduced each other's names, and exchanged briefly. Then I decided to embark on the journey overnight, just to come back to rest almost tomorrow morning.

So in addition to Sol and Lorna, there are more male thief Kenbert and female swordsman Ellen in the team.

This kind of team collocation is actually not ideal, it is too aggressive, and the defensive part is obviously weak. It seems that if you really encounter danger, it seems that you can only rely on its own means.

But thinking about it, Saul didn't care too much. It was just a temporary adventure, not a burning expedition, so why demand too much.

The Waiming Lake is on the east side of Fengyu Town. It is said that it was actually called Lanjing Lake many years ago. Later, I don’t know when, too many lives disappeared here, and finally attracted the attention of human settlements, and it was renamed Waiming Lakeside.

In terms of the distance, it is actually not too far from Fengyu Town. It is only a journey of two hourglasses. It is said that it is located in a damp forest hinterland. The thief Kenbert has traveled, so he also acts as a guide in this adventure.

"Hey! Brother, are you also a swordsman?" On the road, Kembert put on Sol's shoulders with a look of passion. Adventurers are usually not named by age, such as this one that is more than a decade old from each other. 'brothers'.

"I'm a soldier." Thor smiled friendly, perhaps because of the shadow of Shuggs. Even though the world has always been harsh on the thieves, it is difficult for Thor to have any subjective dislike for them.

warrior? Kembert is a little unclear, so few people call themselves fighters these days.

There are no kings in the South, who are you fighting for?

But Kembert didn't care, all he needed was a topic to open up. Kembert was obviously a very friendly person, and he kept chatting with Saul on the way, half boasting and half gratifying about old things.

And Aileen walked with Lorna and fell into the topic of women themselves.

There were no specific dangers encountered during the whole journey, and it was even a little leisurely. It didn't feel like they had been walking for long. Under the guidance of Kembert, everyone quickly came to the bank of the Wailing Lake at the destination.

This seems to be a large lake, because the view is limited, and the specific area of ​​the lake cannot be judged locally.

"Yeah! Bad guy, you won't play with me! I promise I won't sleep anymore and stay with you." Looking at the corner of the lake, Savannah whispered suddenly in Saul's ear. Smiled slightly.

"The stele should be somewhere near the lake, so let's walk around the lake first, and everyone will help pay more attention on the way." Lorna first suggested that she was the initiator of the adventure, and everyone had no opinion.

Then everyone began to march along the lake, Sol walked beside Lorna, and Kembert and Ellen chatted together.

Sol seems to smell something strange on the way, the smell of water plants? Or silt? unknown.

It turned out that there was a stone monument. Before everyone walked half a lake, they found a tall stone monument hidden under moss and vines, at least taller than Lorna, erected in the wetland by the lake.

Thor took a closer look. The record on the stele was neither the current human writing nor the mainland lingua franca. He couldn't understand it at all, and he quickly lost interest.

After Lorna thanked everyone, she started her rubbing work.

After Sol helped her roughly clean up the surface of the stele, she first smeared some special paint on the stele, and then lightly covered the text with a few prepared small parchment papers, carefully and carefully The text is rubbed down.

"Hey! Brother, please watch, I and Ailian will leave for a while." Kembert pulled the idle Sol aside, showing an expression that a man understands.

Saul smiled and nodded clearly. Adventurers sometimes got passionate, so it's not unusual for them to temporarily drill into the bushes.

"Is it enough for a while? Are you just that capable?" Sol also joked.

Kembert smiled and cursed and left.

I don't know how long it took, and Sol was a little boring standing next to Lorna. The lake was rumored to be dangerous, but it seemed calm.

"In fact, this stele has another name, called the Scarlet Stele." At some interval, Lorna suddenly smiled mysteriously.
