Chapter 24 The Girl and the Sword
Chapter 24 Girl and Sword
Luke stared at the hilt of Lewanting's sword, the material similar to the tender skin of a reptile animal was as weird as he had seen at the beginning.
"strength……"
Oh, isn't this our lucky thief Luke!
Let's see what good things you found this time?
That's not bad, you guy who picked up the cemetery of the dead can actually get three gold coins this time?
Let’s leave the rest for you. You must know that it’s not easy for us to ensure that you, a guy who has no strength, will not be beaten!
Huh? Boss, aren’t we just responsible for collecting protection fees?
Idiot, because if he doesn't pay, we will beat him up!
The world of human beings is surprisingly similar to the world of wild beasts. Just like a monster that finally hunts food, it is often taken away by higher-level and more powerful monsters in the blink of an eye, and even killed it by the way.
Every time I take out the property that can be relied on to survive through danger from various cemeteries and ruins, I must be careful to avoid the mercenaries in the town who know me well. In their opinion, I have obtained high-priced property with experience and skills without going through iron-blooded battles. It is just a bad luck. It is because of this that I am jealous and will be robbed.
Although Luke has always believed that wisdom is more important than power, no one feels that even if he is weak, he is fine.
Weakness is sin...
"I ask you, will you really become stronger after pulling out?" Luke looked at Lei Wanting seriously, his eyes as if he was about to pierce it.
"Ha, there is no doubt that this is the case. Boy, from your equipment, you are not doing well, right? It doesn't matter, as long as I help you, kill them all! Kill them all!" Lei Wanting still laughed wildly as usual.
Although it was just a sword and there was no expression of joy, anger, sorrow and joy at all, Luke heard from its words, just like a cruel and bloodthirsty demon king in front of him.
With Lei Wanting's excitement, the red blood on the sword began to shine slightly, as if there was really blood flowing...
The girl who was sealed in the crystal had been watching all this quietly from the beginning, perhaps from now on, had nothing to do with her? She was just a bystander.
Why have you been working hard to make money? Why do you have to keep doing it even though you know it is a dangerous job? Isn’t it just for strength? After all, it is just for a better life. At the same time, powerful strength and better life can also be equal to the sign. Luke stretched out his hand to Lei Wanting.
That’s right, finding a magic weapon and selling it for money is just a scam. In fact, after all, my final real purpose is to become stronger!
The key to gaining power is right in front of you! There is no reason to give it up. As for what happened next? Who knows, it has been so long since Luffy and the others have already resolved the battle. Maybe they will be killed by them immediately when they go out now. They have indeed been wasting too much time...
Since there are so many dangerous results, it doesn’t matter if there is one more thing? Luke’s finger has touched Lei Wanting for the first time, its sword hilt...
As I saw, the reptile creature's tender skin material also has the same delicate texture to the touch, and the slight warmth of the hand touch is like the weapon in front of me, which also has body temperature...
Maybe it was a creature? Feeling the temperature similar to that of his body, Luke suddenly had this ridiculous idea, and then smiled and put it aside, it was obviously just a weapon!
But... according to the fact that it can speak, maybe it is really alive. At this time, Luke had already grasped the handle of the sword in front of him.
You can clearly see the strange and strange look of suspicion at a glance, but you already knew that doing what I said would cause an unknown danger, but you still continued. What thoughts drive you to do such a stupid thing? Alicia's eyes fell on Luke, who had already held Lei Wanting.
"It's so stupid, no, no, it should be said to be sad... a creature that desires power extremely!" Alicia said softly, using a voice that was just for herself.
"Even if it is only one in ten thousand, it is based on development as you expect, do you still have to try it? It's really a moth to swing into the flames..." But this is exactly what I guess. Even if I know that there is a probability of failure, there will always be lucky people who think that they will be the part of the chance of success. This is human beings...
Luke held Lei Wanting's sword hilt and was about to pull it out of the stone steps with force. Although it seemed from the previous point that it would pop out the stone steps by itself at any time, when it was really his turn to pull it out, the socket was unexpectedly compact.
Take a deep breath, increase your strength, and after pulling it out, is it strength...?
"Fanny!" As soon as he felt a little loose, he heard a sound coming from beside him.
It was definitely not the voice of the girl sealed in the crystal, because this sound lacked a lightness and more energetic than that, Luke stopped and looked.
It was one of the girls who had led her through the forest before. Since she had arrived here, does it mean that it was Luffy and the others' defeat?
Luke was not disappointed with Luffy's defeat. He was just a prop he used, but when he thought of this, a stinging pain came from holding Lei Wanting's right hand.
Lei Wanting's sword thigh and the occasionally scaly scales on the hilt of the sword, a few sharp and thin sticks stretched out under the tentacles of some creatures, and these tentacles had unexpected hardness, which directly pierced the skin on the hands closest to them - the sting was from here.
What's going on? Luke felt that the tentacles continued to extend the moment they pierced into the back of his hand, and within a short while it extended from the back of his hand to the position of his wrist. The feeling of something crawling in his hand made Luke feel disgusted.
At the same time, Luke felt that his consciousness began to blur...
However, he couldn't wait for the moment of being blurred and lost consciousness, because the sudden kick had made him lose consciousness directly - the girl who suddenly appeared, half of her sleeve torn off, covered her forehead with her slender right leg with a sharp kick! At the same time, she also saw a corner of white sports shorts exposed under her skirt when the kick was flying.
"Even if you want to do such a dangerous thing, you have to wait until I go far! It's really annoying to actually drag me down!"
The god kicked Luke directly into a coma - Rorona, who was still in the state of potion growth, had the level of a high-level warrior and a swordsman in terms of strength and speed. For such a thief with little combat power, he had already left the opportunity to kill him without a single kick.
Moreover, because the force generated by that kick directly made Luke fly several meters away, Lei Wanting, who was originally holding, also escaped from his hand. Perhaps the tentacles did not have time to extend to a very deep position and were pulled out.
The slender tentacles that were pulled out of the skin from Luke's hand slowly retreated back to Lei Wanting's hilt. However, at the same time, due to the previous blow, Lei Wanting, who had already loosened, completely took off the stone steps and fell to the ground...
"What a pity... Lei Wanting almost controlled that guy." Alicia said lightly, as if she was not disappointed.
But the opposite is Lei Wanting's shout.
"You idiot, you almost got Alicia out of trouble! You finally met a guy who could get in here and was a idiot!"
"Huh?" The yelling of the long sword lying at her feet not only attracted Rorona's sight, but also made her breath with interest.
A palm was opened, and a slender iron needle appeared on the hand, which looked about twenty centimeters long.
Gently stabbed Lei Wanting's sword thigh. As Rorona imagined, there was a soft feeling outside like a monster skin, while inside was hard, as if a layer of monster skin was wrapped on an ordinary steel sword thigh. Rorona showed an interesting expression.
"It's so interesting. Although there are no vocal cords, they can still make sounds..." As he said that, he stabbed Lei Wanting again.
"Stupid... idiot, it's very itchy! bastard, as long as I have a command, the six apostle statues next to you will turn into gargoyles and cut you into pieces!" Lei Wanting shouted in a pissy voice, but even so, there was obviously no sign of begging for mercy.
"No, I've been hiding outside the door for a long time. Actually, you can't do anything now, right?" Rorona said with a smile, and her smile seemed full of malice in Lei Wanting's eyes: "What an interesting weapon, I really want to take it apart and take a look..."
Rorona continued to use metal strips to fiddle with various parts of Lei Wanting, as if she was studying it. At the same time, the latter kept laughing bitterly?
Perhaps because she saw the tragic experience of her companion, Alicia, who was watching all this, frowned slightly, and this was the first time she had shown her expression since the beginning.
I have been sealed here for a long time. Even if Lei Wanting talks with him at the beginning, he would not feel lonely. However, as time goes by, any interesting topics are finished and they fall into their own long sleep. Even if there is some communication, they are a short greeting when they wake up. I don’t know when it starts, but I look forward to humans coming here. Even if they cannot liberate themselves, at least they can add some fun to themselves and Lei Wanting, right?
Even though frowning is just the simplest expression, it is also the first time in Alicia in thousands of years. As for the smile, how should the muscles work? She has forgotten.
"Lei Wanting just wanted to rescue me, but in fact he had no malice."
As Alicia expected, her words achieved the expected effect, causing the girl who suddenly appeared to stop.
The girl turned her head and looked at her, but the girl's eyes did not mean to agree with her words, but instead brought the meaning of finding something more interesting?
"Ha, speaking of it, I really wonder what you are..." Rorona looked at the girl who looked a few years older than her: "Compared with that strange weapon, you, who has a human body, are obviously more suitable for conversation."
"Don't answer me? Don't fool me with anything chasing me like that idiot. I've killed all the threatening things on the road..."
Even if it is a demon king, the demon king who loses danger is no longer a demon king. This is Rorona's point of view.
