Keep attacking girls and try not to be killed by them

Just when Vanessa wanted to say something to him, the werewolf let out a rough low growl from his throat, and then the remaining three giant wolves dispersed, forming a one-on-one formation, as if they were planning to fight Vanessa to the death.

——(It would be great if I could do this earlier. I’m wasting my sleep time. My skin is going to be in bad shape.)

Vanessa twirled the silver flute between her fingers twice and then began to play again.

This time, after seeing the number of enemies, she didn't plan to continue defending.

——Deer Spirit Concerto·Sixth Movement·Oleander

Rich notes came out from the slender silver flute. Under the magnificent melody, the body of a deer spirit expanded into a deer-shaped giant taller than an elephant. Another deer spirit gained stronger limbs based on the current deer man. Another deer spirit returned to its original reindeer posture with all four legs on the ground. The huge antlers on its head gleamed with cold light, still stained with the blood of the giant wolf.

Vanessa walked towards the werewolf while playing music, with the deer man and reindeer accompanying her on both sides. The deer giant guarding behind her shook the ground with every step he took.

The werewolf roared and charged first, followed by the three giant wolves around him who also charged forward together!

Faced with such a dangerous situation, Vanessa's performance did not have a single beat error, and the tone did not waver at all.

In her concerto, the three deer spirits and she seemed to be one body, sharing each other's vision and thoughts.

Vanessa and the deer spirits cooperated with each other, and in the magnificent "Sixth Movement", they turned the werewolves and giant wolves into corpses that could no longer move.

"Thank you for your hard work, my children."

After the song was over, the deer spirits returned to their original cute and petite appearance, gathering around Vanessa's feet and asking for a reward of having their belly touched.

Vanessa gave the rewards one by one, then knocked on the door of the carriage and asked the two coachmen to dig out the giant wolf's magic core. She then took the deer spirits into the carriage and continued to sleep.

·

·

The next day, when Vanessa woke up, it was almost noon. The carriage had traveled a long distance at a steady pace while she was asleep.

Vanessa asked the coachman to find a fertile meadow to pull over and let the deer spirits out to graze. She also took out some dry food from her luggage and started eating it with water.

The ones who attacked Vanessa in the early hours of last night were a clan of werewolves from the neighboring Farnese Empire.

The werewolf clan and the snow muntjac clan are sworn enemies, and any werewolf is proud to be able to hunt down a member of the snow muntjac clan.

Vanessa didn't know how the werewolves knew her whereabouts. Living outside the territory of the Snow Deer family, she was an easy prey in the eyes of the werewolves.

However, Vanessa feels that this current situation is not entirely bad, because due to the restrictions of national border security, the werewolves who can find her will not be too powerful, which gives her the opportunity to accumulate combat experience and grow.

She was exchanged to the Green Lizard Family for the sake of family friendship, and she had to work several times harder than her brothers and sisters in the original family.

Otherwise, her fate would be to marry a young master of the Bilishi family like a child bride.

This is the fate of being the "exchanged child" of the friendship between the two families.

·

More than ten minutes later, Vanessa and her group finished their rest. Just as they were about to set off again, a deer spirit was attracted by a little white rabbit jumping over from a distance and was somewhat disobedient and refused to get on the carriage.

Vanessa was about to lecture Lu Ling seriously, when an arrow flew through the air and accurately pierced the little white rabbit's head, ending its life in the blink of an eye.

The three deer spirits were startled, but they did not make any cry to indicate that an enemy was approaching.

Vanessa turned her head to look in the direction where the arrow came from. At first, she saw nothing. After squinting her eyes, she found that at the edge of the woods about one or two hundred meters away, there was a man on a warhorse approaching this side.

——(Can you hit the target even at this distance?)

Vanessa tried to imagine that if this little white rabbit was placed a hundred meters away, it would probably be a white dot smaller than a fingernail.

Under such circumstances, to be able to hit the moving white dot so accurately, this archer must be either very brave and lucky, or...

"Driver, we won't set off yet. Go and pick up the rabbit."

Vanessa became interested in this archer. If he was a talented person, she wanted to recruit him and keep him under her command. This would be helpful for her to return to the Snow Deer family in the future.

——(If you are strong enough, you can also bring me into the maze as my servant, just in time to supplement the long-range firepower.)

·

Vanessa stood beside the carriage and waited for the archer to arrive nearby.

At close range, the archers' horses were even more majestic than Vanessa had expected, and their arrival made the deer spirits stare at them intently.

Sitting on the warhorse was a young man with sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. Although his tawny hair, gray cloak and worn leather armor were all poor and cheap, they still could not conceal his cold and heroic spirit.

In addition, the equipment and supplies carried on the back of the warhorse also caught Vanessa's attention. Although they were all covered with leather cases, based on her experience, they should not be ordinary goods.

Vanessa quickly came to the conclusion that this horse archer was not only an excellent archer and handsome, but also an experienced "old" warrior.

"Mr. Archer, would you mind chatting for a minute?" Vanessa raised the rabbit in her hand and gestured to the young man. She believed that with her beauty, she could immediately make the young man dismount and come to see her.

"It's not convenient. I'm in a hurry. If you like the rabbit, you can take it."

The young man didn't even slow down. He just shouted and rode away.

6.39 - Vanessa's Frustration

Vanessa's hands were shaking as she held the rabbit.

She believed that she had not missed any markings on the archers. There was no emblem of any family or organization displayed on the archers.

In other words, this horse archer is just a commoner.

On the other hand, Vanessa herself deliberately stood next to the Snow Deer family emblem on the carriage. There was no way the other party would not notice that she came from the Snow Deer family.

"Just a civilian..."

Vanessa angrily carried the little white rabbit onto the carriage. The three deer spirits felt their master's anger and obediently followed her into the carriage.

The two coachmen didn't dare to say anything more and immediately prepared to set off.

"Catch up with that horse archer..."

Vanessa suppressed her anger and gave the order calmly.

The more anger was hidden in these calm words, the more frightened the coachmen and deer spirits became.

The young lady they serve is not the type to easily let things go.

·

Generally speaking, it is difficult for a horse-drawn carriage to catch up with a lone cavalryman.

However, Vanessa believed that the archer would not be able to move fast if his horse was carrying so many supplies.

Vanessa and the others had just rested. As long as they unleashed their strength and fought in a short distance, they would definitely be able to catch up!

With the expectation of teaching the boy a lesson, Vanessa stuck her head out of the window and stared at the archers galloping in front of her.

Then, the archers ran farther and farther... farther and farther... until finally, they completely disappeared from Vanessa's sight.

·

Vanessa was silent for a long time.

She wanted to scold the coachman, but she knew it was not his fault. She could see that the horses pulling the carriage were really trying their best.

She wanted to scold herself, but she didn't know where she went wrong. If the same thing happened again, she would probably make the same judgment again.

—(That archer is so unusual... There's definitely something wrong with him and his horse...)

Vanessa sat down angrily and sulked all day long.

The camera switches to Jiang Ran's side.

An eagle is circling in the sky.

On the ground, the small motorcycle was leaving a trail of dust.

After getting rid of the Snow Deer family's carriage, Jiang Ran slowed down the speed of the motorcycle. He believed that if the other party had a little common sense, they would definitely not think of catching up again.

After seeing the wheel tracks of the Snow Deer Clan last night, Jiang Ran did not chase them overnight. Instead, after a good night's rest, he dyed his hair yellow-brown with turmeric, and then caught up with them while brushing up his skills (Trickster Lv15+1↑, Wisdom +10↑).

With the ability of a small motorcycle, chasing a horse carriage is not a problem at all.

The reason why Jiang Ran wanted to chase him was, firstly, because it was on his way, and secondly, because of curiosity.

As one of the five major families in the Kingdom of West, why would the Snow Deer Family's carriage appear in the territory of the Green Lizard Family and also head towards the town of Driss?

(Could it be that this is also about the Green Ghost Lair?)

After chasing for a while, Jiang Ran finally saw the Snow Deer family's carriage parked on the side of the road to rest.

At a glance, he was basically certain that the other party consisted of only two coachmen, a young girl, and three cute little deer.

What surprised Jiang Ran was that the basic information of both coachmen showed "coachman of the Green Lizard Family", but the girl's status information showed "the second lady of the Snow Deer Family".

Jiang Ran instinctively realized that getting involved might cause trouble, and it would not be easy to win over such a lady from a noble family.

So, when the girl named "Vanessa Snow Deer" invited him to stop and chat, Jiang Ran chose to run away first.

·

Now that he had escaped the pursuit of the Snow Deer family's carriage, Jiang Ran calmed down and reorganized the information he had just obtained in a few seconds.

There are two things that concern him. One is the combat profession of the second lady of the Snow Deer family, and the other is the appearance of this second lady.

Vanessa Snow Deer's combat class is the level 48 "White Deer Spirit", a name concept that is beyond Jiang Ran's knowledge.

Considering the name of the Snow Deer Family, Jiang Ran speculated that this was most likely a combat profession related to bloodline or family, which outsiders probably would not be able to learn.

In addition to her combat profession, Jiang Ran was also somewhat concerned about Vanessa's appearance. This was not because she was pretty and cute, but because Jiang Ran always felt that he had seen this face somewhere.

After thinking about it for a while, Jiang Ran finally remembered that in this "future death scene", the second lady of the Snow Deer family also appeared among the passers-by!

·

There's a saying in criminal psychology that murderers tend to return to the scene of their crimes.

Some do it to confirm whether the crime was successful and whether there are any clues left that should not be left, while others do it out of a perverted desire to see the tragic state of the victim again.

Combined with the "star position message" left by the fortune-telling rabbit spirit grandmother, Jiang Ran did not think that Vanessa's appearance at the scene was just a coincidence.

(But… didn’t the Star Message tell me to “not ignore the cry of the deer”? It also said that “the Holy White Deer is the messenger of God”…)

Whether it's Vanessa's family, her combat profession, or the three fawns that accompany her, they all match the descriptions in the "Star Announcement".

And judging from the tone of voice, Vanessa should be a "good person" and would not have anything to do with the murderer. What Jiang Ran should do is to take the initiative to approach her.

However, looking at Vanessa's indifferent face in the "future death scene" and recalling her arrogant inner thoughts when they met just now, Jiang Ran always felt that this guy should not be the "angel" who could save him.

(There are not enough clues. Let's go to Dris Town first.)

(Based on the current situation, Vanessa is also going to Driss Town.)

The day passed quickly and night fell again.

Vanessa, who had been sulking all day, was sitting by the fire, savoring roasted rabbit meat in small bites.

Even though the wild environment was so simple, the second young lady of the Snow Deer family did not do anything that was inconsistent with her status, and she made the act of eating rabbit meat skewers look very elegant.

"I'm full. Come and eat. We'll leave after we're done."

Vanessa got up and returned to the carriage, watching her three deer spirits grazing nearby.

At this moment, the ears of one of the deer spirits suddenly moved, and then it looked up at the woods not far away.

Seeing this, Vanessa subconsciously pulled out the silver flute from her belt, but after waiting for a few seconds, she didn't hear any cries from the deer spirits, so it seemed that there were no enemies attacking.

——(Is that a... figure?)

Under the moonlight, Vanessa could vaguely see a person walking towards them from the woods.

If you encounter a lone person in such a desolate place, he is either a spy of bandits or a homeless refugee.

Seeing that the deer spirits still didn't react, Vanessa guessed it was the latter case, so she didn't bother to get off the car and thought she could just let the coachmen deal with it.

As the figure got closer, Vanessa was somewhat surprised to find that this "refugee" was actually a young girl.

She looked very young, with one lively sky-blue eye beneath her pure white hair, and the other eye was covered with a black eye patch for some reason.

Looking at the girl's strange attire, Vanessa made a dissatisfied "tsk" sound.
