Reborn as Xiao in another world, targeted by the little red bird

wow-

Xiao sat up from the water, holding his forehead with one hand, looking a little ugly.

Just now, he dreamed that he was sinking to the bottom of the water again. When Luo Xing introduced it, he clearly said that it was a "surprise" that would only occur when taking a hot spring bath for the first time. This was his second time.

Could it really be some kind of aftereffect of the erosion of the dream world?

But in this dream, there seemed to be something else under the water.

What is it?

Suddenly, he raised his head alertly and looked outside the pool. A faint sound came into his ears through the cold wind.

Someone was coming this way, with an aura as strong as that of an early Saint, and they seemed to be two servants.

The thought of waking up a little later and not being able to notice the enemy approaching would have been embarrassing.

He took back the red star and began to reflect seriously while trying to catch the sound in the wind.

I was still a little careless. The person who covered for me before is now too busy to help me.

As for Green Goblin... he doesn't care too much and just lets the player do whatever he wants as long as he doesn't force them to death, without interfering.

Maybe he felt that one corpse and three lives were not a good thing, so he would take action at the critical moment.

I feel that Red Mandrill and Green Mandrill can form a perpetual motion machine - provided that they don't fight with each other - after all, Green Mandrill will not spoil Red Mandrill like he does.

Having said that, Green Xiao is obviously the protagonist, but he acts like an outsider, which makes Xiao feel embarrassed sometimes.

Maybe it’s because I don’t care that much about “myself”?

Xiao guessed.

At the same time, a few miles away, two orcs were heading towards the pool, and traces of human beings could be vaguely seen on their bodies.

"There's something wrong with the 'Dragon Eye' over there, hurry up!"

"Why are you in such a hurry? That was arranged by Master Xueying."

"Hmm? Weird, the unusual movement disappeared?"

"I told you, that thing can solve the problem by itself, and we don't need to help at all."

"…Just to be on the safe side, let's go take a look."

"Tsk, you're so free."

"But who could have gone to Longyan?"

"Who else could it be? It could be that little devil who runs around in the mountains all day. He brought other people with him this time. Those people didn't come up empty-handed like the little devil. They might find something in the Dragon Eye."

"Have you started searching for the anchor point here? So should we still hide?"

"See what Master Xueying says. I have been annoyed with that brat for a long time, and now I can finally kill him."

"You want to take action?"

"How is that possible? The little devil's flames are very strange. Let the adults above deal with it. I will just watch him die."

“…We’re almost there.”

As they were talking, the two servants came to the vicinity of the pond. Through the trees, they could already see a corner of the pond.

Seeing that no one was found, the servant who had been unhappy all the way complained: "I told you long ago that it's a waste of time to come here. Even if they survived by chance, they would have escaped long ago. We can't let them destroy the arrangement of Master Xueying, can we?"

As soon as it finished speaking, the ground suddenly shook.

The snow on the trees fell down with a rustling sound. The trees, who were struggling with the violently shaking ground, had no time to react. The moment they opened their eyes, they were buried by the falling snow.

By the time they dug themselves out of the snow, there were no trees standing around them. Hideous cracks spread from the roots of the trees, spewing out thick white smoke.

Seeing this scene, their faces turned pale, and they muttered "impossible" and "how could it be" and used their hands and feet to flee in the direction they came from.

The moment they fled, the noise subsided instantly, leaving only a pile of fallen trees.

Xiao climbed out of the water.

All he caught from the wind were words he had never heard of before, so he suddenly had an idea and decided to eavesdrop. As a result, there was a sudden earthquake just now, and he lost his balance and fell into the water. Fortunately, nothing happened.

In other words, the entire pool of water was not damaged by the shock.

He couldn't help but marvel at the wonders of nature.

On the other side, the auras of the two servants quickly faded away and suddenly disappeared at a certain moment.

Xiao didn't choose to chase.

It was freezing cold, he couldn't just follow her like that, could he?

However, the servant suddenly disappeared, there must be something fishy going on.

He took out the map from his storage bracelet and made the next mark.

When I get back, I’ll tell General Ye... No, let’s tell Luo Xing.

Xiao summoned a Red Star brand dryer and asked it to dry his clothes while he sorted out the information he had just heard.

The wind was very strong on the mountain. The servants were far away at first, so I couldn't hear their conversation clearly. I only knew that the two names "Longyan" and "Lord Xueying" appeared many times in their words. Later, when I got closer, I could clearly hear them blame Luoxing for what Xiao had done.

Xiao took out the fan-shaped sheet he had just obtained, and recalled the conversation he had just heard, feeling a little disappointed.

He originally thought that this was a treasure, but from the words of the two servants, he could conclude that this thing was actually arranged by the being they called "Sir Snow Shadow".

What a joy.

He was ready to destroy the slice, but then he thought, "Yuan Liu" had been studying ways to deal with the beast tide and the envoys, this thing might be useful to them, so he kept it for the time being.

Judging from the conversation between the two servants, they have been in this snow-ravaged area for some time, and the erosion on the mountain is likely to be more serious than expected.

The "Dragon Eye" that has been mentioned many times is basically certain to refer to this pond, but why is it called this?

Obviously, Xiao alone would not be able to find the answer to the question in a short time, and now is not the time to meditate.

It was already afternoon when Xiao set out. After all this trouble, the day was coming to an end and night was about to fall.

The forest will be even colder at night, so it is not a wise idea to continue wandering outside.

Xiao used the wind to carry away the remaining water droplets on his body, took the dried clothes from Chixing and put them on, then left the pool.

Maybe it was because he had just soaked in a hot spring, but now that he was exposed to the cold air again, he didn’t feel cold even without using the Red Star hand warmer.

Suddenly, he let out a light exclamation.

Around the cracked ground, the snow melted quietly, revealing the soft soil and dry tree trunks underneath. Compared with the surrounding ice and snow, it seemed like a different world.

I couldn’t understand it, so I chose not to watch it.

Before the light completely disappeared, Xiao searched everywhere for tree holes. Judging from the messy layout of the tree holes, its original owner had left for some time and left in a hurry.

By the time Xiao had cleaned up the tree hole, Chixing also came back with some fruits and icicles all over his body.

After clearing the snow and ice off Chixing's body, Xiao picked up a fruit, took a bite, and then spit it out.

bad.

With this previous experience as a lesson, he simply cut open all the fruits that Chixing brought back, only to find that most of them were rotten.

He had never collected spiritual materials, so he didn't know whether this situation was normal or not, but what was certain was that he had skipped lunch, and the remaining fruits alone would not be enough to fill his stomach.

After glancing at the uneasy Chixing, Xiao took out the pot.

Fortunately, there were some food ingredients left in the storage bracelet, so Chi Xing dried and burned the collected wood, and they managed to have a dinner.

After dinner, Xiao buried himself in Chixing's soft fur, feeling like he was wrapped in an electric blanket.

Tonight would be a pretty good night - if Green Mandrill didn't suddenly interrupt with some bad news.

"Discovered."

He said.

……

"Xiao" stayed in the room for half a day without any movement. A person who was following him vaguely realized that something was wrong.

After analyzing the situation with his companions, he resolutely broke into the inn.
