Half Elf Ranger

Chapter 240 Hope and Despair

The bright sunlight shone in through the gaps in the wooden house, and the orange-yellow light scattered in every corner of the small dilapidated house.

In this quiet cabin, the two figures leaning on each other seem to have fallen into eternal silence.

Andelina raised her head buried in Thorne's arms, looked at his slightly lost face, with a sweet smile on the corner of her mouth, and said softly, "Thon, what are you in a daze for?"

Back to his senses, Thorn lowered his head slightly, met her gentle gaze, smiled at her, and then gently put the tip of his nose on the messy black hair of the sorceress, sniffing the fragrance from the hair.

He liked the fragrance from Anderina's body very much, this smell could calm his heart involuntarily.In this intoxicating refreshing fragrance, he also caught another faint taste, sweet and sweet, fragrant but not strong.So I couldn't help asking curiously: "What kind of fragrance is this, it smells really good."

"You idiot, you can't even smell the scent of violets." Anderina said with a smile, her expression startled.

Then he retracted one arm around Thorne's body, and gently pressed his palm against his chest, and said softly, "Thon, do you know what the flower language of violets is?"

"What flower language?" Thorne asked in confusion as he stroked Andrina's waterfall-like long hair.

"That's right, you don't even know the name of the flower, so how can you know the flower language of violets? How could I ask you such a boring question? This is deliberately embarrassing you."

Anderina looked helplessly at the somewhat puzzled ranger, and said with a little melancholy: "However, if you weren't this kind of person, maybe I still look down on you, I'm a little bit tangled... "

"..." Thorne looked away with embarrassment and looked away from Anderina's resentful eyes. At the same time, he secretly remembered the violet flower in his heart. After thinking for a while, he opened his mouth and said:

"What did you give me just now? Why does the sweet breath in my mouth have no intention of dissipating?"

"This sweet taste will last for a day. It is a gadget invented by an alchemist. It is very popular in the life circle of high-level nobles." When mentioning the little candy, Andelina immediately remembered Thorne's cuteness just now. expression, couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Things that can only be enjoyed by high-level nobles must be very expensive." Thorne glanced at the sorceress unexpectedly.

"It's not that expensive, it's only 1000 gold coins." Anderina said not very concerned.

"It's just... well, rich and self-willed." Thorne, who was slightly shocked in his heart, muttered two words as if resigned to his fate.

Then he took a longing look at Anderina's pretty and moving face, and gently moved her delicate body away, preparing for the next thing to do.

He knows very well that as a professional who pursues great power, if he can't bear even a little temptation, what's the point of becoming powerful.

Why is it said that Legends of Destiny are unique and have names and surnames? It is precisely because they have gone through the most difficult roads, and they can withstand all kinds of trials and temptations in life, so they are called: Legends!
It's not that 'Legendary' is powerful, but because it's powerful, it's called: Legendary!

After this pursuit goal was set by him, he never wavered.

"Are you ready to go out?" Anderina said understandingly, staring at Thorn's face.

"That's right, staying in Waterfall Town can't improve your strength now, so I think it's time to go out and hone it. Without strong strength as capital, I'm afraid you won't even be able to step through the gate of Sigil City." Thorne tidied up Weapons and equipment, said to the sorceress.

"However, if a person only pursues power all his life and has no people or things worth remembering or worrying about, then what's the use of having great power?" Anderina looked at Thorn's busy back in the wooden house. , said leisurely.

"The place we can't go back to is my best memory, and you and Pushang Town are the people and things I care about the most from now on. Don't worry, I won't get lost on the road of persistent power, believe me? "

Thorn hung a dagger with a scabbard around his waist, walked up to Anderina, put one hand on her fragrant shoulder, and with the other hand, brushed the strands of hair on her forehead that blocked her view. Si touched the back of her ear, quietly watching her watery eyes.

Thorne understands that a mediocre life is also a kind of life, but a mediocre life will always lead to the destruction of the family with a small change.

Just like his life as a ranger in Fallstown back then was very ordinary, wandering in the wilderness every day, hunting down and hunting all the evil creatures that tried to threaten Fallstown, and his awareness of power was not that strong.

However, the good times didn't last long. With the attack of hobgoblins, the lower city was covered with blood and tears. It was that accident that made him obsessed with powerful forces.

Power is not just power.

This powerful power also represents immortality. If you have a choice, would you like to stand on a high place with a smile and look down on the vicissitudes of the world, or would you like to be reduced to a pile of bones in your lost life.

Thorne naturally chose the first one. He knew how difficult this road was, but he was resolutely prepared to stick to it.

With powerful power, besides being able to protect the people and things you care about, you will also not worry about the disasters that those high-ranking troublemakers who launch some insane ideals will bring to this world, that's all.

Sensing Thorne's bright and firm eyes, Andelina looked dazed for a moment, recalling some words he said to herself in the ruins of Talan Village:
This is a cruel alien world where the strong are respected. In our world, in that peaceful age, if your personal ability is strong, through hard work, you may be able to live well.But in this world, no matter how strong the personal ability is, those who do not have the corresponding strength are just as precarious.

What's more, those who are incapable and unwilling to work hard in peaceful times, here, you still want to become a hero, become a master, become a powerful legendary professional, do you think it is possible?

It was obviously impossible, and it was the other party's emotional words and strong willpower that deeply attracted her.

He helped her change her view of the world, and also let her find her own belief and support.

"Then you must be careful when you go out, I don't want to see new scars on your body." Andrina walked up to Thorne, and gently arranged his clothes and equipment.

When she fixed a bag of arrows to Thorn's back, she paused, and said softly: "I will wait for you in the tower."

Seeing Andelina showing such a gentle side, Thorne secretly sighed inwardly. That guy Carlos was right. The biggest gain from his half-year out training was not the inheritance of the Nine Swords, but the acquisition of the Nine Swords. The beauty in front of him is his biggest harvest.

Thorne packed his equipment, glanced at Anderina, and couldn't help but embraced her again. The refreshing fragrance mixed with the floral fragrance of violets lingered in his nostrils again, making him feel a little impetuous. Slowly calmed down.

"Okay, don't make it look like parting from life and death, it's so sad." Andelina smiled and pushed Thorn's body away.

After thinking about it, he asked curiously: "Thorn, actually, I have a question that I have kept in my heart for a long time. I have always wanted to ask you, and today I took this opportunity to say it."

"What's the problem?" Thorne noticed a playful look in Anderina's beautiful eyes.

"It was the last time we met in the bar in Winter City, why were you so cruel to me, and cut a wound on my neck without hesitation? Could it be that if I were tougher at that time, the sword in your hand would directly The stabbing went down." Anderina stroked her smooth neck, recalling with a little fear.

"This is a proposition." After listening to Andelina's words, Thorn muttered to himself, and was about to speak up to defend himself, when he suddenly noticed a sound outside the house, he was taken aback, and took the opportunity to go out to check.

"Roar!"

When Thorne pushed open the wooden door and walked out, he was a little dumbfounded by the scene in front of him, so he immediately said to his animal companion Fulong Beast: "It's just a messenger, what do you eat it for, it's not enough for you It’s stuck between your teeth, let it go quickly.”

"Roar!"

The Fulong Beast looked at Thorne and let out a low growl, opened its mouth and threw the falcon in its mouth to him, then curled its lips at him, as if to say something, and then continued to lie lazily on the big rock basking in the sun.

"Flapping!"

The falcon, which escaped unharmed, immediately flapped its wings and flew to Thorne's shoulder.

Thorne stroked the falcon's feathers and found that there was no injury on the falcon's body. He realized that he must have misunderstood the dragon beast, so he glanced at it apologetically, and opened the letter tied to the falcon's leg to check.

"People from the downtown area?" Andrina smoothed her messy long hair and walked to Thorne.

"That's right." Thorne nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said to her, "Carlos' son is just full moon today. He invited me to a banquet to celebrate."

"Then let's go and see what the descendants of our compatriots look like, and I haven't been out of the tower for a long time, so I should take a break." Andelina's beautiful eyes flickered, and she held Thorne's hand Arm said with a smile.

"Okay, let's go together." Thorn waved his hand, motioned for the Falcon standing on his shoulders to leave, smiled and nodded to Anderina, and then sighed: "The birth of a newborn is very important to our player group." Say, even hope, is it not a kind of despair."

"Roar!"

Looking at the backs of the two leaving, Fulong Beast gave a low growl of dissatisfaction, flapped the two dark red flesh wings on its back that were extremely disproportionate to its body size, and flew into the air to chase after them.
