Sword and Magic and Taxi

Chapter 8: 1st contact

   Ash Lake is a misnomer, and there is no ash inside. The lake here is clear and calm. Under the noon sun, the distant forests and mountains form a clear reflection in it, and together with the blue sky and white clouds, they form a beautiful and peaceful picture. This kind of scenery is very rare on the earth. As long as it is a place with a beautiful scenery, it will inevitably not be stepped on by humans, and then affected or even destroyed. If there were no crossbow arrows at his feet, Zhao Mai would dare to say that this was the most beautiful forestside lake he had ever seen.

   He held the car door with one hand and raised the other in the air, indicating that he had no weapons in his hand. His eyes looked around as quickly and carefully as possible, hoping to find out who shot the arrow. Against the path of the crossbow arrow, a large cluster of dense shrubs, half a human height, blocked his sight, and the woodland behind it was so dense that he could not find anyone.

   The opponent is either hiding well, or has changed position. Zhao Mai shouted again in Common Language several times, but no one responded to him. Although it’s safe to get back into the car, what is the difference between being trapped in Cloud City by the devil?

   waited another two minutes, but no crossbow arrows came, and no one came out to claim responsibility for the attack. Zhao Mai thought for a while and felt that the possibility of being attacked again was relatively low, so it was better to let go of the courage and do what he should do. So he took a deep breath and prayed for blessings to all the gods and Buddhas he knew in his heart, and then walked forward slowly, stepping over the corpse under the wheel, and standing on a clean ground.

   The pebbles by the lake have long been washed out and round and smooth, and I finally feel a little down-to-earth when I step on it. Zhao stepped to look around, and after a while, he finally understood what creature the car had killed. There are not many creatures with wings and three heads, especially with three different heads. This is undoubtedly a Chimera.

   Chimera is not a specific creature, but a general term for a class of creatures. Any creature that is affected by the power of chaos, possesses magical abilities, and has more than three heads and characteristics is called Chimera. No two Chimeras are the same, and the huge differences make it difficult for them to produce stable offspring. However, this creature has a lifespan of up to a thousand years. After not having to worry about reproduction, Chimera has only one desire left: eating.

  The chaotic magical powers give them a variety of elemental spraying abilities, and sometimes they generously gift the ability to cast simple spells. Different heads can cast different spells, fire, acid, ice and lightning are all possible, which provides a great help for predation. In addition to wild creatures, the vicious Chimera often attacks villages, so it is often at the forefront of the adventurer's hunt and kill list. Unlike the dragons that correspond to colors and elements, what abilities the chaotic Chimera can display has nothing to do with the shape of their heads. This is very difficult for adventurers to deal with, so adventurers are often delicious meals for Chimera.

   The Chimei at the feet of Zhao Mai has the heads of sheep, lions and certain birds. It has just caught a wild boar not long ago and is preparing to feast on the lake. Zhao Mai's taxi fell just behind its neck, and its absolute strength brought a huge impact, smashing its shoulders and turning the entire upper body into a pool of mud. This was definitely a quick and painless death, while leaving most of his body without any wounds.

   looked at the dark green scales on Chimera's thick thighs, and then at the wild boar that had been bitten open. Zhao Mai shook his head, it is better to start with the food he is familiar with.

   The crossbow bolt is still stuck in the ground, but at this time I can think of eating. Perhaps this is the most powerful gene inherited in the bones of the Chinese nation. People rely on food as their heaven, and all meals are hard. Zhao Mai knew that there was nothing to eat in his car, except for two packs of emergency chocolate bars and a few bottles of mineral water. Coupled with the fact that the originally planned breakfast xiaolongbao was in vain, of course he had to find a way to solve the problem of eating and drinking.

   If you want to eat pork, you must first cut the pork and wash it clean. Zhao Mai didn't have a knife at hand, so he immediately hit the sharp claws of Chimera. Since the upper part of this monster had completely broken open, he moved Chimera's right front paw and began to cut his left front paw. A front leg weighs more than 50 kilograms, and it is very difficult to carry on the shoulders, and it is even more exhausting to hold it in the arms as a saw. Only the cut claw tip is light enough to be used as a weapon.

"Without food or clothing, the enemy sent forward; without guns or artillery, the enemy made us..." Zhao Mai sang as he worked, and there is nothing more suitable for him than the guerrilla song. Situation.

   Although there is no Cao Cao in the alien world, it may be a quirk that every world has. Zhao Mai vowed that he had never let his guard down, but he still didn't know how the sharp blade against the back of his head came close.

   "No malice, no malice." Zhao Mai slowly let go of the things in his hands, repeating in his mouth. He didn't panic at all, knowing that his judgment was correct. The other party has a long-range weapon, and since he hasn't shot himself to death before, he is not a vicious robber, he can still communicate.

   Of course there are dangers in this, Zhao Mai knows it well. If he landed in a big city, he would definitely not risk it. But in this wilderness, the current situation is the best.

   The other party murmured a few words, and couldn't tell the age or even the gender based on the voice. Zhao Mai's lingua franca is not good enough to understand him, but he can understand the meaning of tapping a sharp blade on the side of his head. He turned around slowly, UU reading www.uukanshu.com finally knew who "captured" himself.

   This is a shriveled old man with camouflage all over his body. The fishnet-like cloak is covered with vegetation. If he lay on the ground, it would be a bush. Zhao Mai often sees such old people in the park, most of them brandishing chess or fishing rods. The face of the old man in front of him was quiet and peaceful, no different from the amiable uncle next door and the second uncle, but he was fully armed. In addition to the sword he held steady in his hand, three spears and a heavy crossbow were on his back, a quiver and a row of poison darts hung from his belt, and a dagger was tied to his left and right leather boots. .

"You can't speak well." Zhao Mai pointed to his mouth, and then added, "No harm." The old camouflage man kept the short sword on Zhao Mai's neck, reached out and touched his whole body to make sure there was nothing hidden. Weapon, and then put the dagger away. He pointed to the car, then pointed to Zhao Mai, and said in a different tone, "No malice?"

   Zhao Mai repeated immediately. In order to prove his true intelligence, he pointed his finger to his chest, "Zhao Mai," he said.

   Camouflage old man figured out what Zhao Mai meant, but his tongue was awkward, and he couldn't make the sound of "Zhao". It always sounded like "old". If it's "Old Zhao", it's fine, but if it's "Old", it's not quite right. Zhao Mai thought for a while, but also to hide his real name, he changed his name to "Mike".

The pronunciation of    is much simpler for the camouflage old man. After going back and forth, Zhao Mai also knew the name of the old man: Karl Kousa.

   Not only that, he also judged the main ability of the old man: this is a jungle ranger.
