Dawn of the Grey Tower

Chapter 886: monitor lizard rider

The lizard's tongue is very delicate when it runs through the palm of the hand, and the mucus on its tongue gives a sticky feeling, but the tongue coating itself with the coarse grinding function itself is quite rough and dry. Adding the two together, Cheese found that he actually used a sense of hierarchy to describe the state of being licked by a creature huge enough to swallow his own head.

You must know that Cheese has been fed tuatara. If the dragon is also a type of tuatara, in the years when Migo and him first met, they also needed to use a similar method to cultivate mutual understanding and trust. . The dragon's tongue and the feeling in the palm of the hand are completely different.

But whether it is a giant dragon or a monitor lizard, I believe that the first reaction of the person who is licked by them is the same as seeing a huge and terrifying-looking insect lying on his body ready to tear his skin with mouthparts. Instinct panic and anger arise in him, remove them from his body and either run away, or kill them quickly.

In the final analysis, the appearance of reptiles is not easy to have positive feedback in people's first impression, and this has also caused various problems that often occur when the lizards are in contact. Many conflicts that could have been avoided have been infinitely expanded. turned into a brutal war. But it doesn't seem reasonable to attribute it purely to pride and prejudice.

"Good boy."

Cheese is not the kind of person who likes to interact with small animals. His early anatomical experience made him lack a normal love or fear of animals, but when a monitor lizard named Xiaomei quietly licked the dried fruit in his palm , the gray robe still showed some smiles.

This smile comes from the most primitive expression of kindness between the two creatures. It tells both parties that they will not pose a threat to each other, and that they can even work together.

"Don't you use any animal taming? I don't feel any sign of casting. If that's the case, then you should be pretty withdrawn, I mean, restrained. Otherwise these shy guys wouldn't be so close to you." The on-duty mage who returned with the saddle was not sure whether he was joking or bragging about his knowledge of monitor lizards.

However, after his reminder, Cheese found that the monitor lizard licking the dried fruit was obviously not very fast. In terms of the size of the tongue and the mouth, the dried fruit was only a matter of moments, but Xiaomei only Not in a hurry, not slow, and even deliberately slowed down the speed of eating, as if he was reluctant to end the exchange at once.

"Do they like quiet people?" Cheese doesn't mind when others say he is withdrawn. Strictly speaking, he doesn't mind anyone calling him by any name. level of awareness and worry, but also how much different people see things from different perspectives.

The executioner who slaughtered the Rat Man is a hero on the human side, and the Rat Man who assassinated the human nobles will also be praised by the clansmen. Under this disordered position and perspective, he is a wizard, a wizard, a monster, a freak, aloof, and arrogant. People like that don't matter anymore, they're just shadows in a mirror.

"Yes, these monitor lizards are very sensitive, not just physical hearing, they seem to have some kind of ability to sense the emotions of other creatures, even if a person is calm on the outside, but if his heart is turbulent, they will be far away Stay away. Ridiculous, right? These lizards are so huge, but when they encounter a threatening target, their first reaction is to flee. But thanks to this, their feet are trustworthy."

"As you said, these creatures come from underground caves, where complex caves may be very easy to hide their whereabouts. In this case, escaping is indeed a more energy-saving and wise approach than fighting." Cheese shrugged and dried the last piece of fruit. Putting it on Xiaomei's tongue, the latter rolled it gently and closed the mouth quietly, without any obvious sound during the whole process.

If you don't consider the saliva it left on the palm of the gray robe, the whole eating process can even be said to be elegant, not the kind of artificial elegance, but the natural clean and unhurried behavior like a cat or an eagle.

"It makes sense, is your research major in animals? It's no wonder, after all, this is near the Totem School." The on-duty mage skillfully put a saddle similar to a saddle but wider and larger on Xiaomei's back. The saddle has been carefully designed. The design does not hurt the slightly raised bone spurs on the back of these monitor lizards.

Cheese noticed that in addition to the main body of the saddle, the part of the saddle that was supposed to be the pedal has become a leg cover that can fit the entire calf into it.

"Are they bumpy? The whole calf needs to be tied."

"Bumps? No, not at all. These little guys run very smoothly. The legs are fixed because, well, they don't run along the ground very often."

Gray Robe blinked, and then realized that everything made sense. I am afraid that the key to the reason why the Shannai road network is rarely used or even mentioned is this.

Riding a monitor lizard can still be used by forbearance, but if these monitor lizards are running against the wall or even the ceiling at high speed, it is not a problem of adaptation. I imagined hanging upside down in a dark tunnel and quickly After the moving scene, Cheese's stomach started to ache.

"If I want to change the rental goat now, do you think it's feasible?"

"Of course you can, but do you really want to give up trying it? There won't be this kind of transportation in other places." At this moment, the mage who manages the inn has the devil's experience, that is, when he is bewitching others , don't just describe an overly illusory vision to him, but really hit the other side's request. For mages, curiosity is the biggest weakness, including cheese.

"Ha, well, as long as you can make sure it doesn't forget that there is someone on its back. If I want to ride it, what should I pay attention to?"

The master on duty who succeeded in the conspiracy showed a happy smile, and enthusiastically began to explain to Cheese the attention and special parts of driving a monitor lizard.

In all fairness, it is not difficult to learn to ride a monitor lizard on the basis of horse riding, because compared to the way a horse runs, the lizard does have a reduced sense of jolt when moving by waving its limbs forward, so the key to riding is mainly How to keep yourself on the back of the monitor lizard without being dragged, and how to send movement commands to the monitor lizard with simple body movements.

From the time Cheesi came here with the other party, and now he has initially mastered the riding method of monitor lizards, the whole process is not long or short, considering the distance saved by the passage in the mountains. acceptable.

After finally sitting on Xiaomei's back, tying his legs, and holding a metal rod with both hands that was not a rein but an armrest, Cheese lay on the monitor lizard's back like a knight sprinting with all his strength. Not only that, his collar, cuffs, and the hem of his robe were properly treated to prevent accidents from hooking on a protruding rock while hanging upside down.

"After the inspection, you can go when you are ready."

"One last confirmation, there are road signs in the tunnel, right?"

"Yes, so I suggest you open your eyes properly."

Cheese sighed lightly, read a few characters in his mouth, and his eyes turned orange-red indistinctly and quickly recovered. This was originally a spell used to protect the eyes from the wind in the storm, but now it is suitable to replace the blindfold.

"Then, I'm off. Let's go, Xiaomei, run!"

"Ta, Tatata!"

The huge monitor lizard moved its feet and made a collision on the ground, and as its speed became faster and faster, it became more and more adaptable to the load on its body, the sound gradually became lighter, and finally disappeared together with the figure. in a dark tunnel.

The sound of wind and the mage's goodbye began to sound in Cheese's ear.

"Have a nice trip!"
