Journey to the Half-Elf Plane

Looking at the little girl's distressed expression, Loki smiled, took out a shiny coin from his purse, and played with it flexibly between his fingers.

This is a gold coin from the Austro-German Empire. The golden luster has extraordinary charm.

Little Fatuna looked at it curiously. She had never seen such a beautiful coin.

"No need to be stingy with money, I'll give it to you, little Fatuna."

Loki smiled and handed over the gold coin, but the little girl just touched it twice out of curiosity, obviously reluctant to part with it, but she stretched out her little hand and handed it back tenaciously.

"No, I can't take it. This is brother Loki's money. If you still have it left, you can buy a lot of things..."

She grabbed the hem of Loki's clothes with one hand, and shook the little head wearing a red baseball cap like a rattle.

The little girl said nothing about this gold coin that could buy a lot of things.

Loki naturally did not force the little half-elf girl, and they left the town of Silence together.

It was almost afternoon. When I went back, I passed by the training ground in the south of the town. The serious-faced training officer was leading the young militiamen in the town for training.

The young people in these towns have obviously forgotten about this half-elf boy.

Old Barney Longbow also glanced at him from a distance and didn't think much about it. He was just a young man whose name he couldn't name.

But for some reason, the trainer's eyes suddenly rolled back a few times, and quickly returned to normal in an instant.

No one noticed this strange situation, not even he himself felt it.

……

The cave is a bit far from Silent Town, and requires crossing a valley. It is also relatively hidden, which makes it safer.

Carrying several heavy packages, even little Fatuna helped share a bag of food. The two people who returned to the cave were exhausted.

Although he bought back a lot of food, with Loki's huge food consumption and a greedy half-elf little girl, he could only eat for about five days.

But it doesn’t matter. It’s usually safer in the town. If you don’t have enough, you can buy it again.

They rekindled a bonfire and taught little Fatuna step by step. The little girl was obviously very smart and quickly learned how to start a fire.

Loki asked her to rest for a while, while he took a few turpentine torches and began to carefully examine the cave bit by bit.

Either he didn't have the chance before, or he didn't look carefully enough. Although he had the ability of low-light night vision, his vision was relatively blurry in the deep darkness of the cave.

A bright firelight, following his footsteps, illuminated the cave wall little by little.

There are many things recorded on the stone wall, most of which are simple characters and strange symbols and patterns. These characters occasionally have repeated shapes.

But it is not a popular lingua franca in human cities.

Even Loki couldn't recognize it, and the quantum biological computer couldn't do anything, as it didn't have the ability to analyze and translate this unknown text.

He can only forcefully store this information in the memory space in the form of graphics and pictures.

It took a long time, and several turpentine torches were almost burned out.

Loki didn't miss any detail before he finished exploring this part of the cave.

This simple text symbol, excluding repeated paragraphs, has probably thousands of variations, and it is obviously a relatively complete civilized writing system.

Parse these words?Even if there are massive memories and quantum computers with powerful processing capabilities, this solution is not realistic because there is no simple comparison object.

He couldn't help but think that there might be a cave at the other end of the pool, and his psychological expectations couldn't help but be lowered. He was afraid that it was also a text message that could not be deciphered, but there was no other way.

He could only focus on exploring the law.

Back in the depths of the cave, the little figure was still squatting quietly by the campfire.

Little Fatuna was meticulously roasting food skewered with branches on the fire, and all the roasted things were placed aside.

The little half-elf girl couldn't help but drool a little.

She had obviously suppressed her greed and was waiting for Brother Loki to come back and eat these hard-earned delicious foods with her.

Rocky took the little girl's heart into consideration, patted the baseball cap on her head, and sat down to eat the barbecue dinner with her.

Little Fatuna had never been able to make a fire before, and it was obviously the first time she was grilling something like this. Most of the food was very mushy, and some of the meat was not fully cooked.

But the two half-elf figures, one large and one small, ate happily and soon ate all the food.

……

With sufficient caloric supply from food, Loki's body will not be weak.

He planned to start making plans again and dive into the cold water pool in the cave.

Moved the burning bonfire to the side of the waterhole.

This way the light source will be more obvious and you won't get lost in the deep, dark pool.

A heavy rope was thrown on the ground. The rope was dozens of meters long. It was obviously too long, but he thought that no matter how well prepared he was, it was not too much.

Leaving Little Fatuna to look after him, Loki tied one end of the rope around his waist and took off his shirt.

First, he poured some cold water on his neck and upper body to get used to it, and then slowly lowered his lower body into the water.

Breathe slowly and deeply with your lungs several times, and let your brain fully store a little itch.

Then, in the worried eyes of the little half-elf girl.

His whole body sank into the dark water...

……

Being submerged in deep water, the whole body felt bitingly cold, and the water pressure also increased little by little.

There was silence in the water, and the sonic hearing could not pick up other sounds in the water, only the sound of my own heartbeat.

At first, the depth of the pool was more than two meters, but his feet quickly touched the bottom. He remained awake and understood that he had less than a minute.

His lung capacity is relatively average, but fortunately his body consumes less oxygen.

But usually it only takes a minute and a half to hold your breath, but in this environment, it can only last for 1 minute.

He stayed close to the bottom of the water hole and swam deep forward in a breaststroke swimming position, trying to clear his mind and reduce his oxygen consumption as much as possible.

After diving to a distance of less than 20 meters, there was still a deep darkness in front of my eyes, and there was no end in sight.

There was not much time left, so he searched hard on the cave wall below, and finally found a gap in the stone wall.

He immediately pulled out a metal spike at the front and a ring-like tool at the back, and laboriously inserted it into the stone crevice.

Loki's mouth and nose were filled with pain, but his hands did not stop.

He took off the rope from his waist and tied it to the ring of the wedge-like tool.

Then he put a little more force and quickly pulled the rope in the other direction. At the other end of the rope was little Fatuna waiting on the bank of the cave.

Although time had not passed long, the little half-elf girl was anxious. After feeling something abnormal with the rope in her hand, the little girl quickly tied the rope to a stone pillar next to her as instructed before.

In the cold deep water, with a fixed rope, Loki no longer had to work hard to confirm the direction.

But he had to swim back faster.
