When Tallulah came to her senses, the reckless white wolf had already put its finger close to her.
Tallulah was well aware of the power of her Originium skills. Although she had carefully controlled them, if White Wolf touched it directly, one of his fingers would most likely be lost!
But before she had time to blame herself, she felt a new change. The flame in her hand and part of the source energy supporting it were sucked away by something.
White Wolf was equally surprised. Her fingers were not burned. The moment she touched the flame, she was suddenly guided by an instinct. Her consciousness followed the guidance and this magical situation occurred.
She could feel the flame moving through her body, and a premonition immediately came to her mind: she could release the flame through some medium.
Her body's instinct took over again. She saw a small knife stuck next to the fire and picked it up subconsciously. She immediately felt the flame rushing out of her hand, transferring to the knife and carving several flame patterns on the blade.
White Wolf looked at Yatli with a questioning look: "Is this my Originium skill?"
After being surprised, Yatli came back to her senses. She stared at the knife and nodded, "Yes, your Originium skill should be to strengthen other objects by absorbing some kind of energy. Look at this knife, it has obviously been strengthened."
But the actual effect still needs to be tested personally. White Wolf gripped the knife tightly and chopped at the wood beside him. With a click, the blade broke into many pieces.
White Wolf looked at Miss Dragon Girl in confusion.
Talulah picked up the broken pieces of the dagger, examined them carefully, and said in surprise: "The nature of the Originium technique you just used is exactly the same as mine, but the method is different. I guess it is related to your previous 'absorption' behavior. Perhaps the type of Originium technique you can release depends on the nature of the Origin Energy you 'absorb'. The reason why this knife broke is that its material is very ordinary and cannot bear my flames."
The ignorant White Wolf wanted to continue studying the Originium technique, but her current physical condition made it difficult for her to sustain it, so she had to put it on hold for the time being and planned to test it slowly later when she had time.
The two continued to discuss topics about Originium skills and Ore Disease by the campfire. This kind of communication was actually Tallulah's one-sided imparting of experience.
Perhaps because she accidentally confided her inner troubles, she was very concerned about Miss Rupert, whom she met by chance, and became talkative, which was unusual for her.
However, she was so happy talking that she did not notice that the injured White Wolf had already fallen asleep due to exhaustion. As she was talking, she felt that the other party's response frequency had decreased and his voice had become smaller, so she turned her head to take a look.
Miss White Wolf next to him seemed to have fallen asleep, but not completely asleep. She made unconscious "hmm" and "hmm" sounds between half asleep and half awake, as if to show that she was listening carefully.
Tallulah found that as soon as she stopped talking, the White Wolf became completely silent. She waved in front of the other party again, but received no response.
It seems that he really fell asleep.
She changed into a comfortable position and sat down, looking at the white wolf and thinking about the conversation between them.
The other party is right, the upper level is unreliable, and the vested interests will make everything difficult.
Do we really need to mobilize ordinary infected people and let them fight for their own rights?
The emperor is absolutely unreliable.
In that case, why not give it a try?
……
She looked at the sleeping Miss White Wolf with a strange feeling. The soft moonlight shone through the gaps in the woods onto her face, giving people an indescribable sense of tranquility.
Although it looked dirty, she could tell that it was a very beautiful face. Unable to bear to see beautiful things being buried, she kindly picked a half-dried grass leaf from the face while the other person was sleeping.
However, this tiny movement still disturbed the owner of the cheek. The sleepy white wolf thought that a small insect had jumped onto his face and was bullying him, so he waved his hands in dissatisfaction in his sleep, trying to drive away these bad guys, but he accidentally caught a soft object.
Afraid of waking the other party, Yatli remained motionless, allowing the white wolf to grab her hand and carry her away.
She thought to herself that she would wait until the other person fell asleep before taking her hand away.
But then, the person in the sleep turned over, followed the arm in his arms, found a more comfortable place, and then fell into a deep sleep leaning on this thing that was much more comfortable than stone.
Volume 1: Chapter 5 Karen
For the first time, Tallulah felt what it was like to be at a loss.
She was not used to being too close to people, very much not used to it.
But she couldn't make up her mind to push Miss White Wolf away. On the one hand, the previous communication made her have a great liking for her. On the other hand, she thought that the other party was a young girl named Rupert who was inexperienced in the world and had been infected at an early age. She didn't know how many bad things she would encounter in the future.
At least, let her get some sleep.
A dark wind blew by, startling a few night owls that screamed strangely. Tallulah felt Miss White Wolf, who was leaning on her, trembling slightly.
The campfire had long been extinguished, and the night in the deep forest was even colder. In the icy moonlight, she saw Miss White Wolf frowning, and the threads at the holes in her clothes trembled slightly in the wind.
Tallulah hesitated for a moment, then gently moved her body, and Miss White Wolf naturally slid into her arms.
She froze for a moment, as if she couldn't understand this thing that she had initiated. Miss White Wolf murmured comfortably and clung to her like a little animal returning to its nest.
After a long time, Tallulah finally realized what was happening and clasped her hands together, hugging the person in her arms a little stiffly.
This was a feeling that someone who was used to walking alone had never experienced before, warm and soft, with incredible waves of greed in her heart. She vaguely developed a desire to touch him, and this wish was instantly satisfied as soon as it appeared. She hugged him tighter and tighter, and felt that her spirit and soul were melted together.
It was not until before dawn that Miss Dragon Girl had the heart to take a nap. She soon woke up in a panic again, racking her brains to separate from Miss White Wolf and pretend that everything was normal.
Bai Lang slept until dawn before waking up. She rubbed her eyes, stretched comfortably, and nodded with satisfaction.
She had a strong ability to adapt. Even though she slept in the wild with a cold rock as her pillow, she still got enough rest. On the other hand, Miss Yatley next to her was not in such good condition.
Maybe because he was born into an aristocratic family, he couldn't adapt to this kind of environment, she thought to herself.
The two exchanged a few brief words and then headed for Karen City together. When the sun was high in the sky, they finally arrived in the city.
Karen is a remote city in southern Colombia. Due to its remote location, it is difficult for the government to cover it. Over time, it has developed into a habitat for bounty hunters and mercenaries.
The city guards also found it difficult to manage these guys who made a living by using force, so they simply gave up and focused their work on the upper city area where the rich lived, while turning a blind eye to other places that were much larger than the upper city area.
Tallulah was relatively familiar with this city. She took White Wolf to find the inn and asked the other party to do the cleaning work. She helped buy two sets of suitable clothes and sent them over.
Guessing that Miss White Wolf should have taken care of herself, she planned to go over and say goodbye. She felt that she had already made good arrangements for her and there was nothing to worry about.
Tallulah walked over and knocked on White Wolf's door. When she heard the invitation, she pushed the door open and then stood there in a daze for a moment.
"What's wrong?" Miss White Wolf asked puzzledly.
"Nothing, I just wanted to...by the way, how is your leg injury?"
"Luckily, there's no inflammation. I want to buy some topical medicine to apply."
"Do you know where the drugstore is?"
"do not know."
"I'll take you there."
"Uh, thank you." Bai Lang nodded embarrassedly. Miss Dragon Girl really helped her too much.
Tallulah led the White Wolf out of the inn and felt that she was still careless. It would have been more appropriate to at least buy medicine for the other party before parting ways.
In a remote street corner in the downtown area, they found their destination, and White Wolf was the first to push the door and walk in.
The sanitary conditions in the clinic were extremely poor. Blood-stained gauze was piled haphazardly in the corner, bottles, plates and other messy things were scattered on the floor, and there was a blood-stained scalpel on the table. If it weren't for the clinic sign hanging on the door, she would have thought this was some kind of cult ritual scene.
The middle-aged man sleeping on the table must be the doctor.
Hearing someone coming in, the doctor climbed up from the table sleepily, revealing a magazine of erotic girls under his arm. Bai Lang had a very bad impression of this place. He just wanted to get the medicine and leave as soon as possible, so he immediately stepped forward and explained his purpose.
"It's so boring. Why are there always such minor problems? Just get some medicine and apply it yourself when you go home." The doctor's tone sounded as if he wished that all visitors were seriously ill.
He bent down and searched for it, then put the medicine on the table:
"Twenty Federation coins or an equivalent amount of Longmen coins. No other currencies will be accepted."
The Federal Currency is the legal tender of the Federation of Columbia and is circulated normally locally. The Lungmen Currency is the currency issued by a mobile city called Lungmen in the east of Terra. Since Lungmen is backed by the powerful Yan Country, its currency recognition is extremely high and it has become the world's currency.
White Wolf touched his pocket, then turned his head with sudden realization and blinked pitifully at Miss Dragon Girl.
Tallulah was amused and wanted to laugh. She took out a stack of Lungmen coins and handed them to the White Wolf.
"I will pay you back when I have money." Miss White Wolf said seriously.
She is a pragmatic person. She will neither spend other people's money with a clear conscience nor refuse to lend money for the sake of face.
She took all the money Tallulah gave her, counted out twenty Longmen coins and handed them to the doctor.
The doctor took the money, looked up at the wounded man, and immediately became alert. His previous sleepiness was swept away. With a flattering smile on his face, he suggested to White Wolf:
"My beautiful lady, would you like me to help you treat your wound? This is a free service."
Bai Lang was stunned for a moment, but she quickly saw the purpose from the other party's eyes, and her face turned pale in an instant: "Thank you, no need, goodbye."
She grabbed Miss Dragon Girl who was watching the show and left this disgusting place angrily.
The air outside seemed to be fresher. Of course, she would feel much better if the dragon girl next to her would stop laughing at her.
"Stop laughing!" White Wolf was very unhappy.
"Did I laugh?" Tallulah said happily as she walked. "Don't worry, I have received a good aristocratic education and I never laugh at others."
Miss White Wolf didn't believe it at all: "Shut up, you obviously never stopped. What's so funny about this? It's just that you met a disgusting guy."
"Okay, I won't laugh anymore." Tallulah smiled and nodded. After a while, she couldn't help but ask, "White Wolf, is it a problem to be beautiful?"
"No, no way." Bai Lang's face turned red and her tone became uneasy. She couldn't stand others saying such things.
Tallulah said seriously, "Yes, you are the most beautiful Miss Rupert I have ever seen."
This was her usual way of speaking, straightforward, saying what she meant to say without any ulterior motive, but Miss White Wolf blushed so much because of these words that she couldn't even lift her face.
The two quickly returned to the inn. Bai Lang politely declined Miss Longnv's offer to help apply medicine. Her adoptive father had taught her how to deal with external injuries a long time ago, and she could do it herself.
Tallulah estimated that it would take a few days for White Wolf to heal from his injuries. She thought that since she had helped him, she might as well help him to the end, and it would not be too late to leave after he was well again.
Volume 1: Chapter 6: Dream
Tallulah lived next door to Miss White Wolf, and her favorite thing to do during this period was to go next door and chat.
The more they communicated, the more she felt that the other party's ideas were novel and interesting, as if Miss White Wolf's brain had floated in from an alien planet.
At night, she returned to her room reluctantly, her head filled with the other person's wonderful ideas before going to bed. In the early morning, the first thing she did when she woke up was to knock on the door next door and invite Miss White Wolf to have breakfast together.
Eating breakfast is not important, eating breakfast together is the key.
Tallulah soon realized that her condition was not normal. After thinking about it, she found a reasonable reason for herself:
Miss White Wolf's ideas would be very helpful for what she would do in the future. Some of the theoretical contents were not found in any books. She would leave after the other party's injuries recovered, so she must seize the opportunity in these two days.
Miss Dragon Girl was convinced of her reasons until the fourth night, when she had a dream.
In the dream, Miss White Wolf was sleeping peacefully in her arms. She looked at her cheek quietly and kissed her black closed eyelashes.
Miss White Wolf suddenly opened her eyes, looked at her steadily, and said nothing.
The dream was interrupted.
Admittedly, it was a very unusual dream, and Miss Dragon woke up in the middle of the night, speculating that the dream was related to the scene in the forest.
She didn't quite understand the meaning, but she was aware that her thoughts were disturbed.
There was once a person who repeatedly tried to control her mind, but that person ultimately failed and died under her sword. This experience made her extremely wary of similar situations.
But the strange thing was that this time, she didn't feel any disgust in her heart. Miss White Wolf had never done anything to her. Everything came from herself.
This was a warning that it was time for her to leave, Tallulah thought silently.
The next morning, she had breakfast with Miss White Wolf as usual. From beginning to end, the words of farewell stayed on her lips for a long time, but she could never say them out loud.
Wait until tomorrow, she thought, when the new day comes she will formally say goodbye.
Tomorrow comes tomorrow.
Three days later, Miss White Wolf was jumping up and down on the ground, and told her with surprise that her injuries had been completely healed.
Tallulah congratulated him, but she felt sad inside: "Let's go to a restaurant uptown tonight to celebrate your recovery."
We have been together for many days, and this time we really have to say goodbye.
Bai Lang didn't know that Miss Dragon Girl was planning to separate. She happily accompanied her to the upper town. For her, who grew up in a remote village, the restaurants in the upper town were also a novel and unique experience.
"Yatli, what are your plans next?" White Wolf asked as he followed Tallulah.
Tallulah felt as if she was stabbed in the heart, and felt a little uncomfortable: "Yes, I will tell you when the time comes."
"Yeah." White Wolf nodded repeatedly, and then muttered to himself, "Yatli, sometimes I don't know how to thank you. You have helped me so much."
Tallulah whispered, "It's nothing, just something that can be done easily."
"No, it's definitely not a small matter. Not only did you save me, but you were also willing to talk to me every day and tell me so many things about the world. You must have noticed that I don't understand a lot of things. If I hadn't met you, I might have been like a blind man bumping into things along the way. I don't know how much bad luck I would have suffered."
Bai Lang didn't notice that when she said this, Miss Dragon Girl's eyes became brighter and brighter.
