Angel was lying on the table, looking at the blue sky through the window.
The warm sunshine shone on the skin, quietly tracing a golden edge, and the gentle and comfortable atmosphere made him feel sleepy.
How long has it been since you felt sleepy like this? Ever since you boarded the Bauhinia, Angel has never really relaxed. Firstly, it’s because of your mood, and secondly, the boat is sailing on the sea, which is inevitably bumpy. On the Bauhinia, Angel always feels
I am stepping on cotton.
But above the cloud whale, it is as stable as the real earth.
This kind of stability made Angel feel at ease. With nothing to do, Angel fell asleep unconsciously while basking in the warm sunshine and smelling the fragrance of the grass.
A pebble drew a graceful arc, was thrown in from the window, and landed on the table.
The sound, neither loud nor quiet, disturbed Angel's sleep.
Opening his slightly hazy eyes, Angel, who had just woken up, was still in a daze for a moment, until another stone fell in. Under the inertial rebound, it jumped and stopped at Angel's hand. Angel slowly came back to his senses at this time and picked up the pebbles doubtfully.
Who is playing a prank?
Angel stretched his neck and looked out the window.
The green grass is swaying in the gentle breeze, and the cloud whales are flying steadily. The clouds cover the lawn not far away from time to time, and only the faint movement of cattle and sheep can be seen.
Angel looked left and right, but found nothing.
Just when he was confused, a lazy and hoarse female voice came into his ears:
"Hey boy, are you looking for me?"
……
It was a plump woman wearing a brown leather coat and silver scale shoulder armor.
She was in the tent directly opposite Angel. It was covered by clouds and fog, but Angel didn't notice it for a while.
Through the open window in the tent, Angel could only see the woman opposite him, leaning on the table, resting her chin on her hand, looking at him curiously. Her other hand was going back and forth.
Throwing pebbles, this action seemed to tell Angel that she was the one who threw the pebbles earlier.
Although the woman's whole body cannot be seen, judging from the long wavy brown hair and the graceful bust, this woman should have a tall figure.
The woman's appearance is beautiful and mature, with her chin held up to the side, she looks both sexy and lazy.
Even Angel, a young boy who still has a vague concept of women, couldn't help but his eyes lit up.
Accompanied by the melodious breeze, Angel and Nausicaa began their first conversation.
Nausicaa, the lady opposite, is very talkative and can easily grasp the dominance of the topic. Even if it is a topic that Angel takes the initiative to start, she can also use her expressions, movements, and extended questions to ask questions.
words, as well as verbal rhetoric, and then slowly dominated the topic again.
When Angel chatted with her, he didn't even feel uncomfortable. Even though the topic frequently changed its focus, it still made people feel harmonious and pleasant.
This is a natural-born leader.
"You didn't come from the nine-cabin blood fight, did you?" Nausicaa flipped up her forehead in a coquettish way and looked at Angel with her green eyes.
"As expected, you don't have any smell of blood on your body. You're such a lucky little guy." Nausicaa took out a long-handled black gold pipe from somewhere and took a puff from time to time. The smoke rings she exhaled blended with the clouds.
There are always white clouds of smoke surrounding her body.
The nine-cabin blood battle is a method for screening talented people in the Savage Cave. All talented people are divided into nine different stone cabins for bloody battles. The winner is king, and the loser must perish. There is a safe in each stone cabin.
area, but the safe area is open for a limited time. In addition, there are ten rules in the stone cabin. Talented people must use various means, whether it is scheming or brute force, to bypass or use the rules of the stone cabin, and finally survive
Come down.
He now understands why he smelled the strong smell of blood when he passed by a square stone house earlier, because it was the stone cabin where talented people used to fight in bloody battles!
The only winner in the stone cabin is allowed to join the Savage Cave.
According to Nausicaa, the winners of the stone cabin are those who win by cunning, those who win by alienation, and those who win by pretending to be dead.
"Only two people are truly qualified based on their combat prowess." Nausicaa blew out a smoke ring.
"One is Baruba, the barbarian from the fourth cabin."
"Where's the other one?" Angel asked.
Nausicaa looked directly at Angel, with a sultry smile on her lips: "The other one is me."
Hearing this answer, Angel's eyes widened. He didn't expect that the sexy and beautiful woman actually obtained the qualification through combat prowess.
Angel couldn't see a trace of blood in her body, he only felt peaceful and lazy.
Would such a woman be so cruel that she could kill the entire cabin and be qualified to survive?!
"Is it cruel? Actually no, this is... the reality of the world." Nausicaa smiled slightly: "In order to survive, I can do anything."
"Natural selection, survival of the fittest." Angel said slowly.
Nausicaa glanced at Angel and said, "The summary is very insightful. This sentence is not in the style you can say at your age."
Angel pursed his lips in disbelief. This was indeed not what he said, but he stood on the shoulders of giants, with earth civilization as the foundation. He could learn things, and he was also very powerful, okay!
"Okay, I have a lot of time here, and I just want to disturb you by chatting to relieve boredom. After chatting for so long, let's stop here." Nausicaa stretched out her hand and gently pulled down the white curtain of the window: "Finally
Let me remind you, you have not gone through a bloody battle, some people may not be satisfied."
Nausicaa pointed to several small tents in the distance: "Did you see those tents? These are the winners of the ninth cabin."
Angel looked around and could only see small tents because they were too far away. However, he could clearly see that as he looked around, the curtains of several tents were gently pulled down.
Those people have been watching him.
This reminded him of how he had always felt a thorn in his back when Flora took him on a long detour, and that cold and sinister creepiness might have come from those people.
"After all, those who can win the bloody battle in the nine cabins have more or less a sense of superiority. In this world, many disputes come from - unfairness. Do you understand? Little boy."
Don’t worry about scarcity, but worry about inequality. Although Angel understands this principle, he only boarded the Cloud Whale today! Isn’t your nine-cabin bloody battle over long ago!
"However, you don't have to worry on the Cloud Whale. The wizard just now did not set up a forbidden formation outside your tent. You can leave the tent at any time. But we are all restricted to the tent by the forbidden formation and cannot go out." Na.
Usica: "This is one of the reasons why they will be unhappy with you."
……
Even though we had a lot of fun chatting with Nausicaa, Angel was always wary. As she said, there is nothing good to do with someone who can come out of the nine-chamber blood battle.
.
However, Angel took Nausicaa's final reminder to heart.
It's not trust in Nausicaa, but distrust in human nature.
The clouds are gone and the stars are rising, and the curtain of the night is opened by the gentle moonlight.
After Angel had dinner, when he was still thinking about whether he should take the initiative to show his presence in front of the cheap tutor, Flora appeared in front of him.
"Good evening, Angel."
"Miss Flora, hello to you too."
Flora didn't care about Angel's name. Although her origin was different from Yisli's, she didn't have a surname. She was adopted by Sanders since she was a child. She wanted to take her mentor's surname, but
The instructor did not agree.
"The mentor's experiment has been completed. I think you should go over and see him."
