I, the retired legend, were forced to go ashore

"Tch, whoever dares to come will kill whoever, and I will protect you."

Although Ada was hard-spoken, her heart was warm.

He brushed his daughter's hair together, hugged her into his arms, and kissed her forehead twice.

Then he patted his daughter's back rhythmically and lightly with one hand.

"Go to sleep, you have to go to school tomorrow."

Ada whispered: "Triss, you know, the best thing I did in my life was to adopt you."

Triss nodded silently, let out a breath, and moved closer.

Although she has no father, she has a mother who is more like a father than a father.

that's enough.

Watching the adopted daughter's breathing gradually stabilized, and slowly falling into a deep sleep, Ada, who felt refreshed because of washing before going to bed, once again gathered her thin shoulders into her arms.

The mother and daughter have lived together for ten years, and they must have slept together in the first few years.

Until the last two years, the two had separate rooms.

But just like children sometimes suddenly want to sleep with their parents, Ada, a mother who has become a monk, will also want to cherish her daughter at a certain moment.

Therefore, this scene of embracing and sleeping will always happen every once in a while.

There are no other factors, it is purely family affection.

A group of white cute things pushed open the door, and Xiaobai, who had finally climbed up the steps to the second floor, was panting tiredly, but still looked anxiously at the bed.

Its owner is being manipulated by that huge hunter, waiting to be rescued by himself! !

"Woooo-"

The white crystal ferret made a small sound, tried hard to climb onto the bed, and laid its furry body horizontally in front of the hunter's mouth.

If you want to eat, eat me!

Although trembling with fear, he still tried to make a flattering purr.

"Huh? Is it cold?"

Feeling the trembling of the pet in front of her face, Ada took it by the back of its neck, stuffed it into the bed, and placed it in front of her chest.

Kissing Triss on the cheek again, Ada let out a satisfied sigh:

"Hoo hoo, home, daughter, and pets, all ~ yi yi ~"

Before the words fell, a tactful divine moan was suppressed from the lips.

Ada looked down, with a trembling tongue, and scolded: "What are you doing, Xiaobai!"

The white crystal ferret buried under the blanket in a place full of milk fragrance, remembered the mother who forcibly separated him, and was hungry.

But before it could eat anything, it was thrown to the ground again.

Then it was covered by a ball of clothes on top of its head, so that it could not find the direction to go out, and it didn't even know what happened.

When Xiao Bai got rid of the entanglement of his clothes and climbed onto the head of the bed again, he found that the mighty hunter who was hugging his master was also asleep.

……

Ada had a restless sleep that night.

The two stimulations by pets before going to bed caused a subtle chain reaction in her healthy, normal and youthful body, and all she dreamed of this night were paid content.

When Ada was woken up by the sound of merchants hawking in the street downstairs, she no longer remembered what she had dreamed about, only that it might have something to do with Deep Shadow.

Because that's what Triss told her.

"Mom, last night you yelled Sister Shenying's name and almost strangled me to death!"

The girl frowned and complained, her eyes were sleepy, and she couldn't hide her depression.

She speculated on her mother's character again, and asked her guess: "Does sister Shenying owe you money?"

"Sooner or later."

Ada had no regrets at all. She sighed and stretched her waist, turned over and left her back to her daughter: "Get up and pack yourself and go to school, I don't want to move..."

She felt a cold fire in her abdomen, and she felt a little uncomfortable.

The frequency of this kind of thing happening after getting up recently is getting higher and higher.

Triss lifted the quilt and went to the ground, only to find that the clothes she had put on the pillow had fallen to the ground, and there were a few fluffs from the white crystal ferret on it.

"Xiaobai! You're so naughty!"

The girl put her hands on her hips and reprimanded her pet.

The white crystal ferret was full of confusion and grievance, completely unaware of the fault of its victim.

No. 62. Collections of all kinds

Chimera Head, second floor.

Ada rummaged through boxes and cabinets, inspecting her collection.

She wanted to pick a few objects for Triss that were as inconspicuous as possible, but could also serve as life-saving tools.

It was not used before because her identity was not exposed, so no one would use their brains on a child from a commoner family.

Moreover, magic objects all have magic fluctuations.

Even ordinary people can see the unusual light on it, and under the detection magic, it is as conspicuous as a bright light in the middle of the night.

If Triss carried these things hastily, it would bring disaster to her.

But now it's different.

Ada's reputation has gradually spread, and in the academy, everyone knows that Triss's mother is a master, and her child carries a few gadgets with him, which is understandable.

Of course, it can only be a low-level gadget.

There are six or seven pieces in her high-level collection, which are very recognizable, and it is easy for someone with a heart to deduce the clues of 'White Lightning' from above.

But low-level things...she doesn't have many...

Ada dragged out a large box from under the bed, carried it to the hall downstairs with difficulty.

After removing the tables and chairs and clearing out an open space, she directly turned the box upside down on the ground, and the contents inside spread all over the floor.

There are dozens of them, big and small.

But most of them are not magical equipment, they are just antiques with collection value that she has borrowed over the years.

The leader of the Chimera rarely turned on all the magic crystal lamps.

Under the bright light, Ada squinted her eyes, looking for equipment that Triss could wear among the tatters.

'Everything--'

There was a polite knock on the door.

Xu Shi saw the bright lights, and the visitor judged that there was someone in the hall, so he shouted without waiting for an answer: "Miss Ada, it's me, Brando."

"Go in by yourself."

Ada didn't bother to get up, so she responded casually and continued to gather the collection.

The door of the tavern was pushed, but it was locked and could not be opened.

However, this did not bother the leader of the professional killer. After a burst of magic light, the door lock automatically popped up, and a greasy fat man pushed the door open with a sneer.

"Miss Ada, I'm here this time to sue—"

Brando's eyes straightened.

I can't say anything after that.

Why do many of these things on the ground look familiar?

The gold statues of dwarfs piled up randomly on the side were originally his own, right?

But he remembered that he lost four at that time, why are there five now?

"Where did this other one come from?"

Brando pointed his finger at the fifth golden dwarf. It was in the shape of a stern voice, and it looked like it was about to strike with an axe.

"The vault of the subterranean dwarves."

Ada didn't raise her head, looked at a light blue ring, and replied casually: "I was found when I went in, and I grabbed it."

Brando: "The dwarves must have a lot of magic weapons in their treasury. Which one is not worth more than this?"

"Standing and talking doesn't hurt my back, and I can tell you haven't been there when I see you."

Ada gave the fat man a blank look.

The treasury was three floors deep, and the most expensive magic equipment was on the bottom floor. If I jumped down at that time, I'm afraid it would be too late to run away.

Brando silently stroked the cold sweat on his head, and nodded awkwardly.

Well, he has never been to the vaults of the underground dwarves, let alone the vaults of the dwarves, he has never been in the vaults of any power in the world, how dare you...

But then again, it's not impossible to take this golden dwarf.

These dwarves have different shapes, and their expressions are exquisite and pretty. He only managed to get four of them, and he doesn't know which famous artist made them.

If you can collect them all, they are still very valuable.

He bent down to pick up the little gold dwarf, and as soon as he looked at it, the cold sweat came down his forehead again.

"Who gnawed the tooth marks on it?"

I saw that on the forehead of the golden dwarf, there was a circle of tooth marks neatly branded like a mark.

"Ka-ka-"

Ada didn't answer, just clenched her gums up and down twice, making two crisp sounds.

Brando broke down a bit.

Now the gold dwarf has been directly reduced from the height of a work of art to a pure gold product, and its value has dropped by at least [-]%.

"Why are you biting it, isn't this a waste of things!"

Brando distressedly picked up the other dwarves that had been stolen from his home, and sure enough, he saw the same location above, and they all had this annoying mark on them.

"Nonsense! If you don't bite me, how will you know if it's pure gold!"

Ada was upright, and glared at the killer leader angrily, making him tremble with fright: "You seem very dissatisfied?"

"Where there is nothing... I mean, you must be a famous person throughout the continent in the future. Sooner or later, these golden dwarves will double their worth because of this circle of marks..."

Brando wiped his sweat and forcefully explained, then quickly changed the topic, pointed to the ring lying on the floor on the other side, and sighed:

"I lost this ring somewhere before we met, how did you find it... why don't you give it back to me?"

Ada glanced at the ring and saw that it shimmered white, obviously a magical item.

It's just that the magic wave is too weak, and it's not worth her using a god-level lockpicking scroll to forcefully break the restriction, so she doesn't know what it's used for.

But Triss will start to learn magic structure next semester, and this thing will be used for her to practice at that time, and it will be a matter of time to crack it.

Therefore, the girl simply shook her head and asked sincerely, "Where did you lose that ring?"

"Forget, it's in the garden... maybe it's the study?"

"Then am I here your garden or your study?"

"Don't dare dare... I dare..." Brando reacted, picked up the ring, undid the restriction in front of the female thief, and then injected magic power into it.

A group of white flashes suddenly bloomed, and then slowly dimmed after a few seconds.

"As you have seen, what is sealed inside is a simple light trick. It is worthless, but it has special meaning to me."

Brando puts the ring in Ada's hand and lets her inspect it.

"Okay, since that's the case, I'll give it to you." Ada threw the ring back without looking at it.

She has always been generous to her friends.

"Thirty magic crystals, just put them on the third floor of the cabinet behind the door of your study, which is the three 7s in the password."
