Most of the witchers living in the Northlands live a life similar to that of the Warrior Monks, who do not have their own homes, but live in various sanctuaries or barracks, and White Fire is no exception.She lives in the depths of the Frost Temple, an ancient temple of Ice that has been her home since she was adopted by Hasselblad.Led by Hasselblad, Hao Ren and his party came to the place where Bai Huo lived, in the deepest part of the temple, in front of an oak gate that looked quite ancient.The gate and the surrounding Gothic columns all reveal the atmosphere of thousands of years of vicissitudes, and although the temple is not dark, these things still inevitably give people a deep and oppressive feeling.Hao Ren stood in front of this door, looking at the mottled marks on the door, and felt that it was difficult to associate this place with the "girl's boudoir".He had been in contact with Bai Huo a few times, but he didn't know much about it, and now this was the first time he had come to the other party's place, and his first impression was that of the "Hermit": a girl who was born and raised in the Demon Hunter Order, received rigorous combat training and doctrinal indoctrination from an early age, and lived a completely ascetic life.He put his hand on the heavy oak door, and it was as cold as this ice field."
No wonder she said she didn't like this place, it was cold and boring."
Hao Ren muttered to Vivian next to him and knocked softly on the door.After a long time, a somewhat lazy voice came from the room: "Who?"
The door is unlocked......
"Hao Ren pushed lightly, and the door opened, and the next moment he felt that he might have opened the wrong door: the scene on the other side of the door made him dumbfounded!
I saw that the whole wall of the room facing the door is a huge furnishing cabinet, the cabinet is full of all kinds of figures and comic magazines, and the floor of the room is messily stacked with pieces of magazines and food packaging, there is a single bed in one corner of the room, the bed has not been cleaned up for many years, the sheets are almost in an abstract art way and squeezed into the corner, and in the other corner of the room there is a large LCD TV with a full 50 inches, the TV is also connected to a PS4 game console, a petite, A girl in a cartoon nightgown is sitting cross-legged on the floor playing a game.She had her back to the doorway, and she couldn't see her face, but she could see a head of silver hair cascading down her shoulders like a waterfall.The girl didn't look back when she heard the movement at the door, but just raised her hand and waved: "Close the door, Teleng." ”Hasselblad, who came with Hao Ren and them, couldn't look at it, and coughed dryly twice in the back: "Ahem, Bai Huo, there are guests ......"
Bai Huo, who was busy playing games, reacted suddenly, she jumped three feet high, and rushed to the door at once: "Ah!
”Hao Ren didn't close his mouth until this time, he stared back half a step back, and put on a remorseful starting gesture to the silver-haired girl in front of him who was wearing cartoon pajamas, with two dark circles under her eyes, her head was not combed and her face was not washed, and the corners of her mouth were still stained with potato chip residue: "Who is coming?!"
”Bai Huo jumped again, and his face changed several times in an instant: "Hao ......
Benevolence?
You......
How did you get here?
”The moment the girl spoke, she remembered that she had sworn allegiance to Hao Ren at the beginning, so she quickly changed it to an honorific title: Don't look at this appearance now, but she is still quite reliable.However, Hao Ren didn't feel that the other party was reliable at all, he stared at the girl in front of him for a long time before he finally believed that this was Bai Huo, so he instantly had a feeling of going to the wrong world line: "Aren't you also possessed by the will of the gods......"
I don't blame Hao Ren for this reaction, in Bai Huo's current state, in addition to the signature silver hair of the head, there is a little otherworldly temperament?
Bai Huo was confused: "The will of the gods?
What will of the gods?
”Vivien quietly took two steps back and whispered to Hasselblad in a very serious voice, "Is that how she usually is?"
”"Ah......
That's how it was from a young age......
No, it wasn't like that when she was very young, before humans invented game consoles," Hasselblad said with a look of lovelessness, apparently he knew this was going to be the case, "She liked comics from a very young age. ”Lily stared at the side for a long time, and finally held back a sentence: "But this style of painting is wrong." ”Hao Ren and Vivien said in unison: "Shut up!
You're not qualified to talk about this in this place!
”Bai Huo had already reacted from the initial shock at this time, she quickly let Hao Ren into the room, but quickly pushed him out again: "Please wait a moment, I'll go change my clothes......"
Hao Ren was already pushed out of the door before he could react to what was going on, and then the heavy and quaint oak door was slammed shut from the inside.To be honest, he was instantly relieved after the door was closed: after cutting off the messy things in the room, he felt that the painting style was much more normal just by looking at the old wooden door......
Bai Huo changed clothes quickly, and within half a minute of Hao Ren's sigh, the door opened again, and then the genius girl demon hunter appeared heroically in front of everyone again.She changed back into a black suit, her hair was neatly tied into a single ponytail, the snack scum at the corners of her mouth was also cleaned up, and in addition to a little dark circles under her eyes, Bai Huo basically completely restored her usual image - even that crisp and crisp temperament has completely returned.But Hao Ren could still see the tragic room behind her, and the eye-catching word gaover on the fifty-inch TV.Bai Huo glanced back at Hao Ren's gaze, and suddenly exclaimed in a low voice: "Ah!
I didn't save it!
”Everyone: "......"
"Eh, I didn't expect you to ...... usually" The corners of Hao Ren's mouth twitched, and he still couldn't help muttering, "Damn, what about the ascetic nun of the Ice Castle that I said......"
Bai Huo's ears were very pointed, and she showed a smile with three points of embarrassment: "This......
Who decreed that witchers can't have personal entertainment?
”Hao Ren rubbed the corners of his forehead, he realized that this was not the first time Bai Huo had said this, and the last time she said this was after everyone knew that she usually had a hobby of reading comics - at that time, Hao Ren had already felt that his impression of the witcher had collapsed once, but this time, it was clear that he had been hit even harder.I also have a deeper understanding of Bai Huo's words......
"Life in the ice field is boring," Bai Huo seemed to have changed the momentum of the whole person after changing back into the battle suit, she smiled slightly, and her tone was indifferent, "This place is far away from the bustling world, there are no shopping malls and no parks, and every day is basically combat training and gnawing ancient books, and other than that, you can only be stuffy in the fortress - do you think you can find other ways to entertain in this situation?"
I don't like to go out with them to hunt seals. ”Hao Ren thought about it and felt speechless.At this time, Lily's attention had shifted to other places: "Anyway, I didn't expect you to get these things here......
Do you have anyone else who buys game consoles and magazines from the base?
”"It's not that we specialize in procuring these things, it's just that the field staff who are responsible for procuring supplies from the human world will help us carry some things by the way.I'm not worried about it, a game console isn't a big deal - the elder Andahel once had a circus come back, and then I don't know how to deal with it. ”Hao Ren: "......"
He instantly gained a higher level of understanding of the witcher!
Not to mention anything else, now he suddenly felt that these guys had more flesh and blood......
Bai Huo found that the atmosphere at the scene was a little delicate, so he quickly changed the topic: "So you guys are looking for me, is there something wrong?"
”Hao Ren was stunned for a moment, and then quickly corrected his thinking that had gone astray: "That's the case, we need to conduct an in-depth investigation of Colpers - we need you to be your guide." ”"Investigation?"
Bai Huo was a little curious, "Didn't you investigate a lot of things before?"
What's been discovered recently?
”She knew about Hao Ren's "work", so she had already guessed something at the moment."
We found a case of being 'parasitized' by the will of the gods in a witcher who returned from Colpers," Hao Ren said bluntly, "Now we suspect that there are still more divine powers lurking in Colpers - they may have been suppressed by the dark sword before, but now that the seal is loose, these things may have come out." ”Vivien added, "The 'Divine Will' itself is friendly, but its rank is so high that mortals will be in danger of their lives even if they approach it. ”When Bai Huo heard this, his expression gradually became serious."
In fact......
"she hesitates," she said, "there have been some unusual phenomena in Colpers lately. ”(To be continued.) )
