rune hunter

Chapter 66 Beauty and Wine

"The earliest historical records about runes can be traced back to the early days of the barbaric era, a series of myths about Elsie, the original sun god, and Carlos, the god of chaos. According to legend, Elsie helped the primitive tribes on the earth to establish the initial civilized society, And Carlos plundered the fire of civilization to forge a series of runes."

"This is a mythical story handed down from the Church of the Gods, but in the eyes of rigorous wise men, there are many doubts. The fallacy about the Chaos Demon God casting order runes cannot be explained by the theological theory of 'either-or' .From a credibility point of view, scholars are more inclined to cite another version of the highland prophet."

"The barbarians living in the highlands still choose to believe in ancestor spirits for thousands of years. Although this belief is very ignorant and primitive, it is undeniable that the history recorded by those ancestor spirits who lived in the barbaric era is more powerful than the gods. teachings are closer to objective truth."

"According to the records of the barbarian myths and epics, when the world was first opened, all living beings were ignorant, and the fire of civilization had not yet been ignited, the ancestors ran on the earth and competed with the alien races in the barbaric world for living space. Elsie, the daughter of the sun, lived in Crystal River The river basin established cities inhabited by plain people, Suka, the son of the mountains, made the plateau the ancestral land of barbarians, and Carlos, the son of stars, led the nomads to occupy the grassland..."

"In the era when the legendary heroes hadn't ignited the fire, the strong on the earth had their own paths. For example, Carlos learned the rune system representing the rules of the world from the sea of ​​stars. Later, his followers The continuous development and improvement of this power system spreads..."

The girl paused slightly in her soft and melodious voice, and coughed twice.

"Take a break, your voice is hoarse." El put away the blue light in his eyes, turned his head and said with concern.

In the dead of night, accompanied by a beautiful woman, it sounds like a very stylish and high-grade beauty, but it is a huge burden for readers.The story that the bard told one night in the tavern was actually only a few thousand words, but the book in front of the two of them now contained hundreds of thousands of words.

Although it was expected at the beginning that it would be impossible to finish reading this book in three days, when Laurana actually started to read it, she realized that the difficulty she had to face was greater than she imagined.The girl is not a sleepless undead creature, long hours of boring mechanical work caused great fatigue to her body.

"I'm fine, just drink some water." Laurana rubbed her sore cheeks, trying to grin her mouth to show a signature smile, but found that her tongue was a little numb, and the words she spoke were a little mumbled.

"Although I don't know the exact time, it should be very late now, why don't you go to rest first." El patted the girl's head habitually, and Laurana turned her head and glared at him.

"I'm not your little Tika, don't slap it casually!" The girl said this, but she didn't move her head away, as if she was enjoying it.She rubbed her eyes, stretched her arms out wide, and yawned cutely.

"It doesn't matter to me. It was common for me to stay up all night when I was doing my homework."

"We've only read fifteen pages so far, and we must be prepared for a long-term struggle." El reminded her kindly: "Look at your voice, will you be able to speak tomorrow?"

"Do you want to continue squeezing my labor? You black-hearted guy!" Laurana covered her face and screamed unwillingly to be bullied: "I don't care, why should I be rewarded for my body? Work hard for things? You’d better fend for yourself, I’ll just wait for the teacher’s punishment.”

"If you say that, you're not afraid that Master Stephen will find a few rough men?" El said half-jokingly.

"How...how is it possible." The expression on Laurana's face froze instantly: "That old bastard is still my teacher after all, so it's impossible for him to do such a shameless thing. Besides, isn't he most concerned about your problem now? ?”

"It's hard to say." El shook his head, pretending to be serious, "If you think about it this way, Master Stephen may think that we are slow in progress, and he may think that I am sympathetic, so find a few more men to threaten you to stimulate me Maybe it would be more effective?"

Laurana's eyes were blank, and she fell into a petrified state.

"I think you can do this kind of unscrupulous way of doing things in order to achieve the goal, let alone your teacher." El continued to add embellishments with a sneer.

"Don't say woo woo woo..." The unscrupulous business girl screamed, covering her face with tears and running away.

El smiled, turned his head and returned his attention to the book in front of him.The additional ability of insight into runes is to strengthen the brain's thinking, and hearing and eyesight are only appearances. The real horror lies in the observation and processing of external information.As long as Laurana has read the words, he can combine them with the words in the book to memorize them forcibly.In just one day, he was able to understand as long as the words that appeared repeatedly in the book.

If these three days were spent entirely on learning Gogar, El believed that he could use the remaining four days to finish reading this broken book, but he didn't know what Master Stephen was so concerned about at this point in time.What is so important that you must use the body of your own disciple to motivate yourself, an unknown person?
On this issue, El and Laurana have very different opinions.El is good at analyzing and reasoning the direct connection between things. He believes that the reason must be on him. No matter what, the answer will be revealed in three days.

Laurana, on the other hand, is more inclined to make emotional judgments on the psychological side.She felt that, for whatever reason, when her teacher made such a suggestion, his brain had lost its cool, and it was almost impossible to make any rational decisions when one's head was hot.An anxious person will only become more anxious. Since he can't wait for a week, he may not be able to wait for three days.

The loud noise of "Bang!" caused Al to raise his head in fright, and found that there was a huge wine bottle in front of him.In a short while, Laurana did not know where she got a large plate of steaming food.

"I asked those stupid servants, did the teacher ask for special treatment for you, and they said yes. Then I ordered a dinner of the highest standard in the tower. Hehehe, this is only the teacher himself can enjoy The ultra-luxury treatment, and the Wesley red wine with the meal." Laurana smiled like a little fox who just stole a chicken, and seemed to forget the horror fantasy just now.

"Red wine? How did I hear that spellcasters shouldn't drink alcohol?" El asked strangely, this was a little common sense he had confirmed with Tiana.

"It's not aged, it's just fruit wine with spices. The teacher likes to drink a glass while studying. It is said that it can refresh the mind." Laurana pulled out the cork with a face full of excitement, and filled the glass on her own. Lift it up and shake it slightly, so that the onyx-colored liquid in the cup emits a beautiful brilliance under the candlelight.

"Supposedly? Wait a minute, don't you never drink a bar before this?" A drop of cold sweat dripped from Al's forehead.

"How is it possible, hehehehe." Laurana smiled dryly, ignoring El's doubts, and raised her glass and bowed in greeting: "The night is so beautiful tonight, let's drink it all down, and then study hard all night."

After finishing the nondescript toast, the girl closed her eyes, raised her head and drank the red wine in the glass boldly with three parts of curiosity, three parts of excitement and four parts of revenge.

"Hey, hey! Miss, what kind of crazy are you!" El was unable to stop her, so he could only watch her drink it.He didn't worry about being Tika at all. Tika grew up in a tavern, and his drinking capacity was unfathomable.On the first day of the two of them, she drank a bottle by herself without delaying the business.But God knows how much this young lady can drink?In case of drunken madness, I really can't read this book.

"Spiced fruit, olive flower...there are really indescribable and wonderful flavors." Laura smacked her lips with insatiable desire, and accurately said the various spices added to the red wine. "This is the teacher's treasure for many years. I usually don't want to drink more. Since he doesn't care about the teacher-student friendship for many years today, don't blame me for ruining it..."

"Laurana, don't you... feel dizzy?" El asked tentatively. Seeing the girl's normal expression, it seemed that there was no problem. Unexpectedly, the eldest lady was also massive.

"I said it's just sweet wine without proof, you're too worried, junior brother!" Laurana raised the bottle to refill herself, and gave El an annoyed look: "Don't drink it, drink it If there are too many, I won’t be able to remember what’s in the book…”

The red wine glass "slapped" and fell to the ground.
