Chapter 2448 (((`) The homeless little girl
Obviously, Anne is not in Neverwinter.
Therefore, Edkin wants Holgai to quickly find a certain arcane archmage who is known as the most, most, most, most, most, most, most, most... the most powerful arcane mage to deal with the upcoming red-robed wizard in Neverwinter City.
, the plan of the black dragon and the terrifying 'Shadow of Death' threat is definitely not possible for the time being.
Because at the moment, Anne doesn't even know that the large number of corpses and undead in the Swamp of the Dead are being used by Sel's red-robed wizards and colluding with the black dragon to capture Leilong Town and Junction Fortress, which are under the nominal control of her Neverwinter City.
Even though she was heading towards Neverwinter City, she was still wandering leisurely and leisurely in an archipelago far away from Neverwinter City.
If she was not lost or looking in the wrong place, there is no doubt that this is the Whalebone Islands, which is located to the west of Waterdeep City and about a thousand miles southwest of Neverwinter City in the depths of the ocean.
And the reason why Annie appears here is of course because of the super delicious isinglass she bought at the Fish Wharf in Neverwinter City last time!
That’s right!
She wanted to eat the meat from the body of the "Swimming Beluga", especially the small ball of fragrant and fine whale gum that tasted like jelly.
But no matter what...
That unambitious whaling fleet, after they got that huge windfall, especially the large sum of gold that Queen Anne gave her when she took the photo of the whale gum, they directly announced that they would not go to sea this year.
No work and no more work?
That is really unreasonable!
What made Anne even more annoyed was that they were the only fleet in Neverwinter City that dared to hunt whales in the ocean. Therefore, she wanted to eat again, but she had no choice but to come to the Laoshizi Whalebone Islands herself.
There is really no other better way than to hang around here and see if I can grab a piece of meat myself.
Ever since!
Just for a bite to eat, she abandoned Neverwinter City so gorgeously, missed the opportunity to learn about the dangerous situation Neverwinter City was facing and how to deal with it immediately, and instead came here alone to wander around.
Anyway, she currently has no knowledge of the fact that Horgai, the leader of the Barbarian Guards, is leading people to search for her, the Queen of Neverwinter, outside the city of Neverwinter. She is just carrying her little bear.
Bos wandered around and searched the waters near the coast of this archipelago, trying to find some kind of delicious large animal that she was obsessed with.
result……
The result was: she wandered around for almost a long time, but in the end she found nothing!
I don’t know if she didn’t find the right way, or because the crew and bosses of the whaling fleet didn’t tell the truth, or for other reasons?
Anyway, Annie took a walk around this island called the Whalebone Islands, which is said to be the ancestor of the ancient Luskan people. In addition to the various fish bones on the ground and some villages scattered in the archipelago,
Nothing was found beyond the ruins and the small town with its sinister port and market place.
"hateful!"
()
"Did you really get deceived by those guys?"
()
Just like that, when Anne got angry after searching for a long time but couldn't find the target, she naturally directly blamed the cunning crew members of the whaling team.
She thinks that those guys must be afraid that others will follow suit and steal the jobs they rely on for a living, so they deliberately mentioned such a wrong location?
"Would you like to look elsewhere?"
(°ー°〃)
"Um……"
(ˇˇ)
Then, Annie started to get confused.
She began to consider whether she should go back to the fleet for interrogation first, continue to search around the area, or simply stop doing it and use her powerful consciousness to scan the entire planet's sea area like a foul.
, even if it alarms and scares countless indigenous gods, they still have to find that delicious white whale and cut it into pieces?
(…)
(●￣￣●)
"Eh?"
Σ(°△°|||)︴
"What is that weird worm doing?"
(ω‖)
And just when Annie was hesitant, she suddenly discovered: In the remote beach open space near the seaside, in the remote tidal flat, there was a strange millet digging and digging alone.
I don't know if I'm looking for something delicious or some treasure.
"strangeness!"
(°ー°〃)
"Forget it, let's go take a look!"
(⊙⊙)
Looking and looking, looking at the strange man who was digging and gnashing his teeth, Anne thought for a moment and had no idea what the other person was doing. Driven by curiosity, she quickly made a decision and prepared to dig.
Put aside the issue of the white whale, let’s first see what the other party is up to.
And if the other party is digging for some kind of delicious stuff or specialty product, maybe she won't have to eat the whale gum that she's been craving for today.
"Aha!"
()
"Tibbers, let's go over and take a look!"
-
==()
After making the decision, Annie of course cheered and ran over quickly, carrying her little bear, and soon succeeded in attracting the attention of the weirdo in the distance who was digging at the beach with gnashing teeth.
"..."
then!
The other party stopped what he was doing, stood up straight, and stared at Annie with that weird, surprised, vigilant and somewhat sinister look, until Annie came close and stood on the beach a few steps in front of him.
Until it stops.
"Pork!"
く(＾_)ゝ
"What are you digging for?"
(-)
First she glanced at the other party, and then of course she asked her question in a nonchalant manner, and curiously looked into the big hole dug by the other party.
pity……
She didn't see anything!
There was nothing in it, no shrimps, no crabs, no shellfish, no turtles or turtle eggs, not to mention the disgusting sandworms or sea intestines as she imagined.
"Jie!"
"Little girl, this is not the place you should be."
"Get out of here, or I won't be polite."
After scanning Annie's body a few times and finding nothing unusual, the weirdo laughed ferociously, then thrust the shovel in his hand directly into the beach, and impatiently prepared to blast Annie.
Walk.
"!!"
!(;o)o
When Anne heard this, she immediately became angry.
"don't want!"
(lll￢▽￢)
"People won't leave because they want to see what you are digging for!"
o(*｀ー)o
If the other party spoke nicely and explained the reason, as if it was not something she was interested in, Anne would naturally leave on her own, but the other party just glared at her and even wanted to use force, and the most important thing was not to
Tell her the specific reason, then she will definitely not leave no matter what.
Besides, no matter what time it is or where it is, Queen Anne will never leave!
(…)
(●￣￣●)
"..."
Seeing that Annie was not only not afraid but also provoked him, the weirdo couldn't help but be stunned.
"Hahaha!"
"What a little girl who doesn't know how to live or die..."
"There is no one on this small island. Aren't you afraid that I will bury you in this pit?!"
Then, after laughing for a while, the weirdo whose face became more and more ferocious walked towards Annie as he spoke, as if he really had any intention of putting that idea into practice?
"I'm not afraid!"
(ˉ▽￣~)Cut~~
Unfortunately, Anne did not tremble with fear or turn around and run away as the other party imagined. Instead, she continued to stand indifferently and responded with disdain.
"ah?"
Obviously, Anne's abnormal reaction certainly surprised the weirdo.
"Not afraid?"
"Why, why?"
Therefore, he not only stopped slowly, but also looked at Anne inexplicably and asked subconsciously.
He could see that the little girl in front of him was very different from her clothes and demeanor. She was probably a child of some kind of big noble or big lord. And if that was the case, wouldn't it mean that there was another girl on this island?
who?
If that were the case, it would be understandable that the little girl in front of him showed confidence, confidence and some kind of reliance when facing him.
"Because..."
()°
"I am not an ordinary child. I am the most, most, most, most, most... the most powerful arcane magic!"
(゜▽＾*)
However, Anne's answer was far beyond the other party's expectations, and that was also the case.
Because Annie was able to capture the ferocious Shadow Bear alive at the age of two, burnt the tyrannical old dragon to death at the age of three, broke through to the hero level at the age of five, was close to the demigod at the age of eight, and reached this level at the age of eight and a few months.
How can a being who roams the endless planes of the universe and can do whatever he wants, be afraid of the boring threat of such a weird creature in front of him?
And if the other party dares to take action, it’s really not certain who will bury whom in the end!
(…)
(￢￢.)
"you……"
"what did you just say?"
However, the weirdo didn't know whether he really didn't hear clearly or was shocked by Anne's ridiculous statement. He actually opened his mouth and hesitated for a long time before speaking.
He asked Anne again with that weird and contemptuous look in his eyes.
"!!"
(ー`ー)
"As I said, I am a great arcane mage, so I am not afraid of you!!"
(`^)
Seeing the other party's expression, Anne knew that the other party definitely didn't believe it, so she reiterated it again impatiently.
Of course, in order for the other party to hear clearly, she didn't speak too concretely this time, she just talked casually.
"..."
"Okay, okay!"
This time, the weirdo obviously heard clearly, and judging from his expression, it was obvious that he didn't believe what Annie said, and maybe he even took it as a mockery?
"Since he is the Archmage..."
"Then come on!"
so!
Seeing that Anne could not be driven away with words alone, and seeing that Anne still dared to play tricks on him, while he sneered, he suddenly pulled out a wand from his clothes and waved it.
The next moment!
Under his spell, a bolt of lightning suddenly fell from the sky, and then struck towards Annie's head.
"oops!"
!?('')
"What do you want to do?!"
(へ╬)
Anne deliberately pretended to be a little embarrassed and reluctantly jumped to the side to avoid it. Then, she looked at the tragic image of lightning hitting the beach where she was just standing and electrifying several sand crabs whose limbs were trembling and smoking.
'After that, he glared at the other party very dissatisfied.
"whispering sound!"
"It seems that he does have some skills!"
And seeing that Annie was able to dodge his own spell, even though it was just a zero-level 'Electric Claw' energy-shaping spell, and it was not very powerful, but it didn't hit, it really made the weirdo feel a little bit.
Unexpected.
"Then..."
"Let me see the strength of your so-called great mage!"
Unmentioned, dodging a zero-level spell would not convince that weirdo of Annie's identity and strength. So, without thinking, he raised his hand again, and then muttered something quickly, followed by a tomb-like chill.
The giant claw once again patted Annie, who was a few meters away.
cold touch
Once a necromantic zero-level spell is hit, an ordinary person will be killed, or suffer serious necrotic damage and cannot recover naturally, unless a priest of a certain god uses sacred magic to dispel and treat it. It can be said that
It's extremely vicious.
"..."
(ˉ▽￣~)Cut~~
But unfortunately, for that kind of cold magic, Anne just waved her hand gently to form a transparent magic barrier, and then instantly blocked and offset the cold touch.
"That's it?"
()
"Sweetie, it's not what people say about you. If you only know this little trick, you will definitely not be able to beat them!"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
"I really didn't lie to you. He is really the most, most, most, most, most... the most powerful arcane master!"
(-)
Anyway, idle time is idle, so Anne naturally did not rush to fight back, but just kept taunting her, and deliberately did not reveal the powerful magic to avoid scaring away the opponent.
(…)
(=｀=)
"Damn it!"
"Don't underestimate me!!"
I don't know if it was because he was stimulated by Anne's words or a certain contemptuous look, or because of something else. Anyway, seeing that both attacks failed, and seeing that Anne seemed to know some magic, the weird man was annoyed.
, he actually waved the staff again.
boom!!
But this time, he directly released a powerful fireball technique, and successfully caused the fireball technique that could burn a normal person to charcoal to instantly include Anne.
"Jie!"
"Are you dead now?"
Finally, seeing Annie being blasted away by flames without having time to use any spells or defenses, the weirdo finally breathed a sigh of relief and slowly put away his short spell made of unknown bones with a grin.
Then he was ready to pick up the shovel and continue digging his big hole.
"laugh!"
(-)
"Shu, I'm still fine!"
(ψ｀▽′)o
However, as the flames slowly dissipated, something happened that shocked the weirdo: Anne reappeared unscathed and had the nerve to playfully make a face at him, instead of being covered up as he had imagined.
Burned black and with a hideous appearance, he fell dead on the spot?
"!!"
"Is it some kind of fire-resistant enchanted item?"
"It seems that the zero-level spell doesn't work!"
then!
While muttering in a low voice, his hand movements were not slow. He actually dropped the shovel in his hand again and took out the short wand and continued to use various spells that he was good at.
For example, the zero-level spell 'Magic Explosion', the first-level spell 'Purgatory Shout', the second-level spell 'Human Immobilization' and 'Crushing Sound Wave', etc. He almost uses the method of clearing spell slots,
With lightning speed, it carried out a series of continuous devastating blows to Anne.
Unfortunately……
Until the end, he did not hurt Anne in the slightest. Instead, he used all the spells. Seeing that he was still unable to do anything to Anne, he realized for the first time that Anne was not lying. She might really be that kind of 'Arch Mage'.
When she was about to run away, Annie, who was a little impatient, simply grabbed her with a mage's hand and carried her to her.
"Say it!"
(ω)
"Pork..."
|ω)
"Well done, why are you digging here?"
(ψ｀▽′)o
That's right, the reason why Annie came over to join in the fun and teased the other person, and even allowed the other person to fight her, was just to understand this matter. As for anything else, nothing else mattered.
"I……"
The weirdo originally wanted to be stubborn for a while, but after looking into Anne's green eyes, he seemed to have seen something extremely terrifying, and his whole body unconsciously moved like sifting chaff.
The ground trembled.
"me……"
"I'm here to dig up a skeleton!"
Then, he naturally did not dare to show any disobedience and directly stated the main reason why he was digging and digging on this beach.
"Skeletons?"
(゜-゜)
Hearing this, Anne was a little surprised and continued to ask curiously:
"What's there to dig out of the bones?"
く(＾_)ゝ
Anne was a little puzzled by this, and after confirming that there were indeed many skeletons under the beach, and one of them was particularly huge, she scratched her head and continued to look at the strange man.
Fortunately, she thought it was something delicious or fun just now, and she ran over to it, but she didn't expect it to be something boring, neither delicious nor fun.
"Because, because..."
"This set of bones can make me the most powerful mage!"
"real!"
"I did not lie to you!!"
After hesitating for a while, the weirdo who was still trying to find an excuse to fool him felt that the mage's hand made of sand on his body was gradually tightening, and he was so horrified that he hurriedly yelled out the truest thoughts in his heart.
When I came out, I was afraid that if I were any slower, I would be crushed by the scary little girl in front of me.
"The most powerful mage?"
(lll￢▽￢)
Anne obviously didn't believe that absurd statement.
Because it was just an ordinary skeleton that had been buried for who knows how many years. How could the little mage in front of him, who could only cast second-level spells at most, become the 'most powerful spell'?
Instead of believing in that kind of thing, she might as well believe that her little bear will learn magic tomorrow!
(…)
(*｀)
"..."
Seeing the undisguised disdain on Anne's face, the weirdo was silent for a while, and then, without waiting for Anne to ask again, he told the reason with some annoyance.
It turned out that he was a necromancer who believed in Verges, the goddess of magic and death, and because of his status as a necromancer, he was driven out of every village in the archipelago because he was not welcome.
and small towns.
At the same time, the people here continued to alienate and persecute him.
Then, one day, he heard that there was a skeleton of a huge sea beast that could cause floods to inundate the island from the Yuan Dynasty, that is, the "flooding sea beast"?
So, he came here today, found its exact location and dug it.
Next, he was going to dig it out completely.
And then……
It's the turn of those who persecuted and deported him to pay the price!
"That's right..."
=('ヮ'=)
After listening to what the other party said, she didn't expect that the other party had such an inspiring story. Of course, Anne was quite surprised.
"Oh well!"
ε=(ο｀*)))Alas
"Then you can keep digging, Sichuan Hu!"
(′～`●)
With that said, Annie canceled the mage's hand and let him fall to the beach with a thud.
"I hope you can succeed!"
()
"come on!"
()
Then, after saying such hard words to the other party, she walked away while the other party was stunned and confused.
Now, her doubts have been completely resolved, and it would definitely not be good if she continues to interfere with other people's affairs. As for whether what the other person wants to do is right or not, that is none of her business.
(Dear little master, generally speaking, you don’t just burn guys like that to get rid of them. Why did you let him go today?)
(｀)?
(Of course, Tibbs was a little confused about Annie's behavior, because according to the usual approach of his annoying little master, when dealing with a guy who looks like a bad guy, he should strangle him to death after asking for the reason.
Or just burn it. It is simply impossible to allow and encourage the other party to continue to do that kind of thing.)
"oops!"
()
"He didn't provoke anyone, so why would they do that kind of thing?"
(ω)
Anne said righteously, with a righteous and arrogant look on her face.
(…)
(●￣￣●)
(Unfortunately, for Tibbs, who knew each other well, that statement was not satisfactory.)
"All right!"
(_)
"Although, he doesn't look like a good person, but seeing how stupid and pitiful he is, people feel..."
(ω)
"It's better to let him continue to be unlucky!"
()
Anne smiled mischievously and spoke her true thoughts.
(??)
(`)
(Tibbers is still a little confused. He doesn't know what's so bad about letting a guy like that dig holes.)
"What do you think..."
()°
"How much can he dig in a day by himself?"
(^▽^)
"And the skeleton of that giant sea beast is so big, how many years will it take him to dig it out?"
(*｀▽*)
"And even if it is dug out and resurrected, how long can his little bit of magic power be sustained? Such a huge undead sea beast will definitely not be able to move on the shore, right? And even if it goes into the sea, it will definitely sink immediately.
right?"
φ(゜▽゜*)
"Then you think about it!"
(=▽｀)ゞ
"The weird man who was obsessed with revenge spent many, many years secretly digging out the sea beast, only to find that it had no effect at all. The leaking bones could not raise the flood, let alone get ashore.
, By then, how hysterical and desperate he must be..."
(▽)/
"So, I think it's better to let him continue digging and digging on that big beach."
(︶)y
Just like that, a smart, smart, well-behaved and cute bad little girl said something in a voice that was crisp and a little bit cute, which made a certain bear shudder.
(…)
(**;)
(Tibbers fell silent, because he suddenly felt that it was really a sad story, and it would be better to just burn that guy now!)
"Let's go!"
()
"Tibbers, let's go to other sea areas to see if there is that kind of white whale!"
()
"People don't believe it!"
()
"We must catch one!"
o(*｀ー)o
As she was talking, Annie, who had already walked far away, suddenly appeared and disappeared directly on the beach, and she didn't know where she went again.
""
At this moment, on the beach just now, there was only the necromancer who was sitting there paralyzed for the rest of his life, a little at a loss and at the same time staring inexplicably at the place where Annie disappeared.
