People in Teyvat, starting from saving the grass god

When she said this, Desiya looked at Rhodes' face and pinched it, crushing the ice pick that could easily penetrate the human body.

"What you are using now is just a way of expressing ice."

"What you should learn to use is the essence of ice, not these superficial and rough applications without skills."

Desia is the holder of the Eye of the Fire Elemental God.

Although the methods of using fire elemental power and ice elemental power are different, they still have some similarities in principle.

For example, Disia likes to condense the power of fire elements into her fists to create a pair of high-temperature gloves shaped by blazing flames. With one punch like this, not to mention what kind of person the fist can hit, just this will The flame glove is enough to burn the enemy's skin and flesh to pieces.

In addition, Dixia also has a habit when fighting, that is, no matter where she goes, there will always be a blazing ring of flames under her feet, making it difficult for the enemy to get close, and they can only be forced to fight with Dixia. Shia distanced herself, then was chased and beaten by her.

Rod studied with her for several days.

Until now, he was still barely able to use the power of ice elements to create a low-temperature field under his feet.

However, compared to Desia, a senior user of the Eye of God, the scope of the low-temperature field he condensed is much smaller, and the temperature has not dropped to an unbearable level. Not to mention Desia, even the Blazing Hunter Those mercenaries in the beast who do not have the eyes of God can easily access this low-temperature field, and some even take the initiative to come to this ice circle to enjoy the coolness.

Rhodes was a little disappointed.

Desiya has a different view on this.

"Do you know how long it took me to become proficient in using Molten Purgatory?"

Molten Iron Purgatory is the ring of fire used by Desia during the battle.

Rhodes still remembered Desiya's expression when she told him this.

It was a look of surprise, confusion, and slight jealousy.

"Two and a half years, exactly two and a half years!"

"Even for a field as unstable as yours, it took me a whole year to barely condense a rudimentary form."

"How many days have you been here?"

"Three days? Or two days?"

The more Disiya talked, the more jealous she became. In the end, she kept lamenting that she had picked up an incredible genius.

"Am I really a genius?"

Thinking of this, Rhodes' right hand moved slightly, and the ice elemental power instantly burst out from the body through the Eye of God. Following Rhodes' thoughts, this ball of ice elemental power twisted for a while and turned into a flower in the desert. Common red nianhua.

"Still a little crispy."

Looking at this ice sculpture flower that was not stable enough and was still falling off, Rhodes carefully considered its flaws, and used the power of ice elements to constantly stabilize the flaws, and then corrected and reshaped the details.

This is the training method Disiya taught him.

Careful crafting helps improve your control over elemental power.

Disiya also exercises like this in her free time on weekdays.

"You first try to smoothly carve out a fine ice sculpture, and then try to lower the temperature of the ice sculpture, perfect the details of the ice sculpture, and do your best."

"I think that when you can create an ice sculpture with an ideal temperature and an ideal form at any time, then your control over the elemental power will be almost at your whim."

"By then, even if you don't have any martial arts skills, you will be able to join the ranks of the strong men in the desert just by relying on the power of the Eye of God."

Rhodes was very lucky.

I'm glad that I could meet such a kind-hearted person like Desiya who is good at teaching others.

If it weren't for her, she would have had to take a lot of detours just to learn how to manipulate elemental power.

The time for practice always passes quickly.

While running for his life, Rhodes felt that every day passed very long.

And now.

Seven days passed before I knew it.

When the outline of Aru Village faintly appeared on the horizon, Rhodes had been able to skillfully condense a solid Red Nianhua. However, the speed of condensation was very slow, and it was far from what Disiya said he wanted to do as he wished. .

This kind of ice sculpture that can last for a long time is also very popular with the blazing hunting beasts. When it appeared, even Disia couldn't help but ask for two, enjoying the cool breath brought by this ice element creation.

soon.

The blazing hunting beast entered the gate of Aru Village.

"Is this Aru Village?"

Looking at the bustling village in front of him with people coming and going, Rhodes muttered silently.

"Well, this is Aru Village."

Disiya looked at Rhodes strangely.

Judging from his skin color, she originally thought that he was a rainforest man.

But now, it seems that is not the case.

Because if you want to enter the desert area from the rainforest area, Aru Village is the only way to go. Rhodes should not know this place.

But the expression on his face didn't seem to be fake. It looked like he had really never been to Aru Village.

So where did he come from?

Fontaine? It can't be Liyue, right?

With this question in mind, after entering the village, Desiya led Rhodes to find a blue-haired woman with heterochromatic eyes.

"Candice, this is an unlucky guy I picked up in the desert. His name is Rod."

"Well, his family was killed by robbers."

Speaking of this, Desiya glanced at Rhodes quietly, and seeing that his expression did not change, she continued: "He had no place to go, so he wanted to settle in Aru Village."

Candice listened to her carefully, and then scanned Rhodes with a scrutinizing gaze.

Except for a brief pause on the Eye of God on Rhode's waist, she did not show any strange expression, and then smiled and said: "Since it was recommended by you, Disiya, then, Mr. Rhodes, welcome to Aru village."

Chapter 4 A little 'special' treatment

Candice is the guardian of Aru Village and has a busy schedule.

After a few words with Rhodes, she went to deal with matters in the village.

"It seems like some unruly people are causing trouble again."

Looking at Candice's back, Desiya shook her head slightly: "Candice has warned those people many times. I don't know what those idiots are thinking. Why do they have to come to Aru Village to find her? trouble."

There is a reason why Aru Village can become a pure land in the desert.

That is the guardian Candice, who is called the [true descendant of the Red King].

This exceptionally beautiful and gentle woman uses the spear and shield in her hands to ensure that everyone who dares to invade Aru Village will receive the punishment they deserve.

If you are lucky, you will be hung from a date palm tree outside Aru Village and eat sand for several days.

Those who are unlucky will become food for monsters and beasts on the spot.

After listening to Desiya telling Candice's 'heroic deeds', Rhodes shrugged and replied: "Probably because those who don't know are fearless."

"Hopefully they will end well this time."

Desiya muttered and said to Rhodes: "Let's go, I'll take you to the village chief Anpu and ask him to arrange a place for you to live."

It is different from the small village with only a few houses in the game.

The real Aru Village is a prosperous village with a huge area.

This is rarely seen in the desert.

Walking on the streets of Aru Village, Rhodes couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

Since arriving in Teyvat, this was the first time he had stepped on a real road.

This down-to-earth feeling made him feel at ease.

Looking at it now, the concept of building roads first if you want to get rich is also vividly reflected in Aru Village.

This village is located at the junction of desert and rainforest. The roads inside and outside the village are very well built. Not to mention pedestrians, even camels can easily walk side by side on the spacious streets.

Such convenient roads have also brought many traders from the rainforest and desert areas to Aru Village.

Of course.

The merchants in the desert may not be the real merchants.

But here, no one cares whether the things in their hands are clean.

And no matter where the merchants came from, as long as they arrived at Aru Village, they had to do business in a polite manner.

"When Candice finishes her work later, she will come find you."

"If you want to live in Aru Village for a long time, you must learn the rules here."

With that said, Desiya told Rhodes some of the rules of Aru Village.

The first rule is that you are not allowed to kill people in Aru Village.

This is an iron rule.

Anyone who violates this will be severely punished by Candice.

The other rules are very common, such as no fighting within one kilometer of Aru Village, and no cheating or abduction.

Without exception, Candice's name is on the Punisher.

Rhodes asked curiously: "Everyone who breaks the rules needs to be punished by Candice herself. Isn't her job too heavy?"

"No way, that's the kind of person Candice is."

Regarding this question, Disiya could only reply helplessly: "I once advised her to learn to enjoy life and find some fun for herself after work. Do you know how she responded to me?"

"What did you say?"

"She said seeing the peace and tranquility in the village was enough to make her happy."

"."

Rhodes was silent for a long time and then said: "The way this guardian enjoys life is really unique."

"Who says it isn't?"

Dixia also curled her lips: "I told her several times not to be so tense all the time, and to take a break occasionally, go to Xumi City to have a good look, buy some beautiful clothes and jewelry, etc., but every time she agreed, and then at the agreed time she said she was worried about the village and didn't go. Really, I want to help her guard the village next time, and let the girls in the group take her to the city to play."

"You Blazing Beast Hunters, besides you, there are other girls?"

Rhodes focused on the last sentence.

It's not that he doesn't believe it, it's actually that along the way, all the members of the Blazing Beast Hunters he saw were old men who smelled of sweat and alcohol. Except for Dixia, he didn't even look at a woman. arrive.

"Uh"

"It will happen in the future, there will definitely be"

Desiya smiled awkwardly and said in a nonchalant manner.

Rhodes's question was correct.

There really are no other female mercenaries in Blazing Beast. Last time she invited two female mercenaries who were well-known in the mercenary world to join the group. However, they ran away after the meal. It was true that she was asked to Depressed.

While the two were chatting, they unknowingly came to a house in the middle of the village that was guarded by guards.

"arrive."

Disiya said something, then stepped forward to talk to the guard: "Uncle Belkasem, is the village chief Anpu here?"

When he saw the guard's face clearly, Rhodes couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

Judging from the appearance, the man who claimed to be the village chief's guard was at least fifty years old, and at the very least, he could be sixty or seventy years old.

In short, he is the kind who is very old and stands outside the door with his back so hunched that he cannot straighten up.

And judging from his appearance, he doesn't have the Eyes of God on him.

"Can this kind of guard really protect the safety of the village chief?" Rhodes thought secretly: "Is it because Aru Village is confident that no one can threaten the village chief?"

at this time.
