Chapter 73 Valkyrie and the Music Box (Subscribe!)

Hildreth pulled the boat to the shore, and Yezhi soon saw an owlbear standing upright, lying on a tree trunk and roaring at the treetops.

There were a lot of bloodstains on both sides of the tree, and a short dwarf was lying on the treetop. This kind of race was similar in size to goblins, but tended to be good, and was a master of hand-made machinery.

As a social race, gnomes mostly live in caves and occasionally sell mechanical toys to traveling merchants.

The dwarf was holding onto a branch, and when he saw Yeats, a glimmer of hope flashed in his eyes, but he did not scream. He just pointed at the owlbear under the tree and shook his head desperately.

The owlbear noticed the threat from behind and slowly turned its head. Its bear-like body was covered with feathers and its face was like an owl.

"Do the paws and claws of an owl bear taste like eagle claws or bear claws?" Ye Zhi murmured.

“Is this the time to dwell on this?”

Hildreth drew his sword to meet the charging owlbear. The giant beast shook the mountains and forests as it ran, and swung its giant paw to slap Hildreth's head.

She slightly turned her body to avoid the powerful palm strike. The huge palm hit the ground with a loud bang. Hilde slashed continuously in an instant, leaving blood marks on the owl bear's body in an instant!
The owlbear suddenly opened its beak and let out a long, sharp howl. The terrifying cry was directly drowned out by the sound of an even louder musical instrument.

hum-

Even Owlbear was stunned for a moment and looked at Ye Zhi blankly.

Hild turned his head with ease, looked at the wind instrument in Ye Zhi's hand, and said in surprise:
"what is this?"

"Suona."

Yeats shook the wind instrument transformed from the "Idun's Instrument Brooch" and said seriously:
"It can effectively restrain sonic attacks."

Hildrede blinked.

It was indeed very effective, even the scream that the owlbear was so proud of was directly covered up!

"You play your game, and I'll play some cheerful music beside you." Yeats said happily, "This music has an inspiring effect."

Hildre examined the soul realm and found that the light of the Ring of Life in his body had indeed become more active. He thought to himself, this is the bard's fighting method!

Immediately, Ye Zhi seized the opportunity and cast a blinding spell to make the owlbear spin around. Hildre praised him, then suddenly frowned and protected Ye Zhi behind him.

Whoosh!
A spear was hurled with such force that it pierced the owlbear's head, and the beast fell to the ground with a thud.

A fierce and murderous aura descended from above his head. Ye Zhi looked up and saw a troll with dark blue skin, a thin body covered with totems, a spear on his back and a sword on his waist. He was squatting on the treetop with purple light in his eyes.

"This is Vol's prey." The troll had pointed ears and long teeth, and spoke coldly. He slowly drew out the two swords at his waist, "If you don't want to die, get out of here."

After being exiled by the chief of the troll tribe, the troll witch doctor Vol? roamed the mountains and wilderness of the Kingdom of Northshire, making a living by hunting.

Cannibalism is a traditional custom of the trolls, but Wall discovered through research that humans contain a large number of pathogens, and demanded that the trolls give up the cannibalistic tradition. He was later expelled from the tribe.

Information flashed through Ye Zhi's mind, and he asked, "Do you know the troll Ogg?"

Wall was stunned, looking surprised: "Do you know Chief Oger?"

"No, I'm talking about Chief Og's child, the Og who was adopted by humans and inherited his father's name." Ye Zhi said.

The troll sheathed his knife, looked at Ye Zhi deeply, and then said, "If you can see Og, please help me tell him that the murderer of his father has ascended the throne of the trolls. If you want revenge, bring this string of tusks and come to me in the Stone Tundra."

As he spoke, the troll pulled off the animal tooth necklace from his neck and threw it to the ground.

"This owlbear is yours. Also, I've dealt with the Wild Hunt evil spirits nearby. You're welcome."

Wall leaped between the trees, disappeared into the woods.

The Wild Hunt is a supernatural phenomenon that occurs during the winter in the North, where ghostly knights swarm together, leading their canines to plunder living creatures.

It is said that when the Wild Hunt appears, it heralds the coming of the Scourge, and all the creatures abducted by the Wild Hunt will become part of the Wild Hunt Legion.

Ye Zhi frowned slightly and thought to himself, "Could Isidora's awakening be related to the Wild Hunt?"

If the assumption is true, once the Wild Hunt absorbs the Ancient White Dragon to join, the power of the Wild Hunt Legion will be further strengthened, which is not optimistic for the Morning Frost Ridge adjacent to the North. Ye Zhi touched the golden melon seeds hidden in his pocket. This item can release a large-scale chaos spell.

Produced by Drill Teeth, its power must be impressive!
Hildre picked up the animal tooth necklace on the ground, and raised the corner of her mouth slightly:
"Revenge for my father, fight for the throne... these sentences are hard to associate with your troll friend."

Ye Zhi recalled Oger's silly smile and retorted:
"Who said that? I was expecting Ogg to become the king of trolls in the future."

Then, Yeats looked at the dwarf who was shivering in the tree and said, "Okay, you can come down now."

The dwarf slowly climbed down the tree and looked at the bloodstains around him, sadness flashing in his eyes.

Then, he looked at Ye Zhi and said hoarsely: "Thank you very much, my lord...The Holy Light will bless you."

Ye Zhi laughed and said, "Are you still a dwarf who only believes in the Holy Light?"

"I met a human before, and he taught me this catchphrase..."

The dwarf picked up a backpack, took out a music box from it, and said tremblingly:

"I have no gold coins to thank you for. My companion and I wanted to sell them for money. Now I give them to you and your wife."

The music box was exquisite and elegant, with patterns engraved on the surface. It could be worth more than twenty gold coins if sold to a noble. Yeats opened the music box, but found that there was no sound. The dwarf said nervously:
"You need to record the music later. Just press these two switches..."

Ye Zhi suddenly realized and turned to look at Xilude, but saw that she was silent, with her eyes lowered, thinking about something.

I have to do this kind of collection work myself... Ye Zhi shook his head, went forward to cut off the owl bear's bear skin, bear paws and other valuable materials, and washed them at the nearby river.

When the two rowed back, it was already dusk. The setting sun cast an orange and red hue on the fjord, as beautiful as a painting.

Hild remained silent while rowing, and spoke softly:

"Ye Zhi...you..."

She hesitated for a long time, then continued, "Are you engaged?"

Ye Zhi was startled: "Why do you ask this suddenly?"

"I read the poem you wrote in the stanza," Hildreth whispered. "Is it written for your lover?"

Ye Zhi thought to himself, I understand, this is a multiple-choice question for the favorability event!
Was it written for you? No, that's too cheesy an answer.

Deny it directly? That would be even more hypocritical.

Impeccable lies, start it for me!
"The poem I wrote is actually a eulogy to my mother," said Yeats.

Hearing this, Hild raised his eyes and was slightly startled.

In the afterglow, Hildreth turned her head to look at the riverside scenery, her red hair fluttering in the wind.

The river flowed quietly. Yeats turned on the music box, pressed the switch, and a guitar-like lute condensed in his hand, plucking the strings.

"Edelweiss", an interlude in the movie The Sound of Music, is perfect for recording into a music box.

Hildesh listened quietly, and when the song ended, Yeats closed the music box and handed it to her.

"Ok?"

"It's for you." Yeats said with a smile, "I take the ingredients and you take the music box. It's fair."

Hildreth rolled up her red hair, took the music box, raised a bright smile, and said:

"You need to do more training before you return home."

"what?"

"I'm going to teach you real fighting skills, what is "action waves"! "
