Teyvat's Otherworldly Adventurer

Chapter 165 Capable Amber

"hu~hu~"

Ke Lai panted heavily and leaned against the wall at the corner of the street, dripping with sweat under his dirty bandages.

She felt that she was really bold today, dared to do such a brave thing, and it seemed to be successful?

"I don't know if that scoundrel Doctor is in the carriage..."

After panting for a while, she regained some strength and muttered a few words in a low voice, and continued to hide in the streets and alleys of Mond City with heavy steps.

At this time, the sky was dark, and the hazy moonlight shone on the statue of Fengshen in the square outside the cathedral, setting it off in a divine light, empty and holy.

Ke Lai inadvertently looked up, was slightly startled, then gritted his teeth: "Hypocrisy! What a free city, it's obviously a group of fools!"

She mustered up all her strength, stumbled all the way to the statue, and looked more and more angry.

Swish!
She unbuttoned the cloak that covered her body, and a purple-black ominous aura burst forth suddenly, turning into a serpent with poisonous flames, as if it wanted to crush the statue of Fengshen.

Just as the big purple-black snake was winding and coiling, a vigorous exclamation suddenly sounded from behind her: "Are you okay?"

Ke Lai was startled suddenly, and just about to flee, but then the energy in her body was a little disobedient, and a strong sense of suffocation surrounded her, followed by pain and hallucinations...

"Hey, wake up! Are you okay?"

When she regained consciousness again, the owner of that voice had already walked in front of Ke Lai. She wore a red headband in the shape of rabbit ears, and her amber eyes were full of concern. It's a very warm feeling, and people will be infected by her enthusiasm and vitality unconsciously.

'Unfortunately, I won't reach out to anyone anymore...'

Ke Lai was silent for a while, and then pushed away Amber who was trying to support her. His purple eyes, not covered by the bandage, were fixed on the God's Eye hanging on the side of the opponent's leg, showing a faint look of amazement.

'God's eyes... no wonder [they] are restless...'

Seeing that she didn't answer, and seemed to be refusing to contact her, Amber squatted down, stopped reaching out rashly, and continued to ask with concern: "It's so late, what are you doing here alone? What's your name? Are you Meng?" German?"

Although it was a bit noisy, Ke Lai could still hear the concern and enthusiasm in her tone. She was silent for a while, and said in a low voice, "...I see."

"Eh?"

Amber, who is chattering, doesn't quite understand which question the other party is answering, why does it feel that none of them are right?
"I'm leaving now."

Ke Lai repeated, then turned around.

But before she took a step, Amber immediately reached out and grabbed her cloak: "Wait! You are very suspicious! How could I let you go here alone in the middle of the night—"

Before he finished speaking, Ke Lai shook off Amber's hand as if a stress response had been triggered, and then sneered gloomily, "Can't you see? I'm suffering from uncleanness. Sick people, staying away from me is the best policy! I am different from someone like you who was chosen by the eyes of God...I am not welcome anywhere, and neither is Mond! I am here just to find something...Look now I can't find it. Goodbye!"

"Hey--"

Ambera raised her voice, "I'm sorry to disturb you and talk to yourself. Who said that Mond doesn't welcome you? Have you asked me?"

Ke Lai turned his head, his big violet eyes seemed to say, "What difference does it make if you don't ask?"

"cough!"

Amber raised his small fist and put it to his mouth and coughed lightly, as if emphasizing it, and then showed a sunny smile: "My name is Amber, and I'm a scouting knight...I'm good at finding things. It's over! Just wrap it on me!"

'wack……'

Ke Lai stared blankly at the palm that was stretched out in front of him, wrapped in the red knight's glove, with mixed emotions in his heart.

Why was she still doubting herself last second, but now she is willing to help?Still smiling so nicely, in Ke Lai's limited memory, this is the first person to show a sincere smile to himself.Such a warm smile, like a ray of sunshine, shot into Ke Lai's already dry heart.

"It's useless to search blindly~"

Amber didn't notice Ke Lai's abnormality, and she was still seriously offering advice from a professional perspective, "First of all, we need to formulate the correct policy. For example - field of view! For scouting, field of view is the most important. Um...then We need to go higher. Higher, uh…"

She squeezed her chin and began to think about the high points that could be climbed in Mond City.

"enough!"

But Ke Lai was not used to being treated so warmly, she shouted, "Leave me alone!"

It's a pity that she still couldn't refuse Amber's kindness because of her integrity. In other words, she said "leave me alone", but when Amber stretched out her hand to her, her body couldn't refuse the warm hand. The palm of his hand was half pushed and half led to move on the spot.

"Great! The bell tower is unlocked! It's not too hard to climb up!"

Amber was full of joy, while Ke Lai was a little suspicious of life. She broke away from Amber's hand and sat alone near the stone wall, only one sentence echoed in her mind.

'How did things become like this... I obviously don't want to be in contact with anyone, but why can't I refuse this woman who is as active as a rabbit?Why would I want to hear more of her voice?Why did I feel a little greedy for the warmth she had wrapped me up just now when I was climbing?What is wrong with me? ! '

Amber didn't know Ke Lai's entanglement deep in her heart, she was immersed in the thought of helping him find things.So she looked down and asked, "Then what are you looking for?"

"..."

Ke Lai sat next to Amber, silent for a long time, and finally asked, "Are you afraid of heights?"

"?"

Amber looked back puzzled.

"This is the perspective from which the gods appreciate their own gardens. People like us are not worthy of seeing such a view. There is nothing to be found at this kind of height that can be seen from the height of the tranquility of the night and the peace of the world!"

Ke Lai clenched his teeth and murmured in a low voice, "Gods are above, eagles fly in the sky, who would watch the struggle of ants..."

"yes……"

Amber thought for a while, and simply got up and walked on the eaves, "Every time I stand on a high place, my pain and troubles will become smaller. Thinking about it this way, my steps will become lighter. My heart will also calm down , so that I can move forward again. Isn't it a good mood like this?"

The moonlight gently sprinkled on her side face, and the serene smile that was different from before immediately pierced Ke Lai's pretended cold shell.

After being stunned for a while, Ke Lai lowered his head in a panic, and said to himself, "I really can't get along with you."

"Then what exactly are you looking for?"

Amber didn't care about the combing in Ke Lai's tone, so he leaned over and asked enthusiastically.

Ke Lai stared at his hands that were heavily wrapped in bandages, and thought to himself: "Of course it's...seeking revenge!" '

……

……

Ke Lai is indeed not from Monde, she was born in Sumeru, one of the Seven Kingdoms in the world of grass.

Unfortunately, she was unlucky from birth.

There is a strange disease in the Sumeru Kingdom, and its name is - Demon Scale.As the name suggests, the external manifestations of the patients are gray-black fish-like spots on the skin, and the internal manifestations are extreme weakness, easy disease, low body coordination, lack of energy, etc...

If you were born in a wealthy family, you can afford to raise them slowly.

But Ke Lai was born in poverty, so her parents had to hand her over to a missionary who claimed to be able to cure the leprosy.

Then, her nightmare began.

Those people were obviously not serious missionaries. They first described Ke Lai's illness with exaggerated words, saying that it was a curse from the devil and only they could heal it.Ke Lai's parents were intimidated by these false threats, and sent their daughter to hell with their own hands.

Obviously, their purpose of taking Ke Lai away is the same as the intention of conscripting soldiers in Mond continuously. It is neither to treat people, nor to train recruits to maintain world peace, but out of a more evil Reason - human experimentation.

On the Tivat continent, it is very difficult for human beings to obtain extraordinary power, which Hai Xi deeply understands.He used the adventurer system to travel through multiple worlds, and finally broke through the restrictions of the God's Eye after a lot of hard work.And strictly speaking, he did not deviate from the existing rules of the Tivat continent.

And what the Fools want to do is obviously unusual. They want more people, at least the elite legions of the Winter Kingdom, to have a combat power comparable to that of the God's Eye holders.This is obviously not something that can be achieved by relying on the favor of the demon god. Even the Queen of Ice is only favoring a dozen or so foolish executives. It may be very difficult for her to bestow power on tens of thousands of ordinary soldiers. Difficult.

No matter how powerful a single god is, his power is limited after all, but the remnants of dead demon gods are almost endless.

This power is dangerous, but fools are not afraid of danger, they only want to gain power.

The evil eye is a special weapon they developed after imitating the eye of God.Back then, Di Luke's father relied on it to drive back the attacking demon dragon Usa, but unfortunately he failed to withstand the backlash from the follow-up demon residue.

But high-end products like Xieyan are not available to everyone, and Ke Lai didn't have that luck. What she accepted was the experiment of injecting residue from the Devil's Mountain.

As the name suggests, this experiment needs to inject the demon god residue directly into the material body, which is why Ke Lai was able to release the purple-black fire snake before.

This process was undoubtedly very, very painful, and Ke Lai's cold and closed personality was also formed at that time.

"Hey, why are you in a daze? We should go down!"

Amber's vigorous voice awakened Ke Lai from the painful memories of the past.

"Go down?"

Ke Lai was startled, glanced at the pitch-black abyss-like ground, and asked weakly, "How do I get down?"

"Ah? Of course it's...flying down!"

Speaking of this, Amber immediately recovered, and his smile was even brighter than before.

"Are you... all right?"

Ke Lai took a half step back cautiously, she felt that Amber in this state seemed a little dangerous.

It's a pity, how could she hide from her sickness?

Amber grabbed her waist and jumped into the moonlight.

"Wait, wait... Do you want to take me to die with you? Let me go!"

A series of screams resounded through the night sky, but Ke Lai said to let go, but his two arms grabbed Amber more and more tightly.After all, the instinct to survive is still there. In this kind of situation where you can't get anywhere, you have to hold on to the only straw around you.

"Alright~"

While comforting the shivering Ke Lai in his arms, Amber put the goggles on his face and opened his arms.

shuah~
With a crisp sound, two wings popped out from her back, and the falling speed slowed down instantly.

"I'm Mond's flying champion, so I won't make a mistake and make you fall!"

"Well……"

Ke Lai raised his head from Amber's embrace, looking at the night sky and the earth with some absentmindedness, "So, can I also fly in the sky... Free city-state, Mond... Maybe, I..."

She had mixed feelings for a while, and finally whispered to Amber: "Remember to burn the clothes I touched. Otherwise, you will also be infected."

"It's not that exaggerated,"

Amber was full of confidence, "Lisa said that high temperature, potions and ingenuity can prevent all diseases! Get ready, we are going to land!"

A handsome drift, Amber landed smoothly with his arms around Ke Lai: "Hey~"

Just as a confident smile appeared, she froze in place after removing the goggles: "...Oops, Oops..."

There was no other reason, just because right in front of the two of them, there were two figures sitting quietly and gracefully at the table. Although their eyes were not turned here, the strong aura could no longer allow Amber to slip away.

"Scout knight..."

"Amber..."

The two mature and beautiful big sisters stood up and called her name in unison.

"Qin, head Qin... Senior Lisa..."

Amber greeted awkwardly, embarrassed.

Flying with people on Wings of Wind is absolutely prohibited in the flight manual, and violators will have their flight license revoked immediately.

God is sorry, as the Mond flying champion and the only scouting knight, Amber just got back his pilot license not long ago, if he is revoked again... he won't be able to work well during this time.

"Shouldn't you be investigating today's black fire case with Kaia? Are there any clues?"

Qin, the deputy head of the West Wind Knights, asked.

"Ah this..."

Amber scratched her head. Could she say that it was because Senior Kaiya didn't seem to trust her very much, so she left alone to investigate, so she didn't know anything?

This scene of being randomly checked by the boss on the progress of the task is really uncomfortable!

Just as she forced out a smiling face and was about to pass the test in a cute way, a clear voice sounded from the shadow behind the two of them.

"Obviously, this scouting knight is far more capable than that cavalry captain with eyes above the roof. She even brought the key person in this case to you, but she still refuses to take the credit."

Haixi stepped out slowly, and gracefully bowed to the two groups of people in front of her, "Four ladies, good evening~"
