The Witcher: Son of the Planes.

Seeing that Colin was staring at her, Edith glared at Colin fiercely.

"Huh! What a lecher," thought Edith.

Colin came to his senses and put down the kettle.

"Bring it here."

"what?"

"kettle."

Colin handed the kettle to Edith woodenly.

Edith cast a water ball spell and filled Colin's water bottle in one go.

"Hey, I forgot you were an ice wizard apprentice."

Colin took the kettle and started eating and drinking with the jerky.

Edith didn't have a big appetite, so after finishing the piece of jerky, she didn't ask for any more.

After taking a few sips from his own water bottle, he stopped and watched Colin eat and drink.

Soon, Colin stopped eating too.

The small fire between the two of them had gradually become much smaller. Colin took out some kerosene and poured it on the linen in the middle of the fire, and the flames jumped up again.

Colin wanted to find some firewood, but he found nothing, so he tore off some cloth from his body, wrapped it in kerosene and lit a fire. Soon after, he met Edith.

The place where the two were was in a sheltered place, and the temperature at night was not high, but it didn't feel too cold for the time being.

Seeing that Edith wasn't in the mood to talk, Colin decided to rest early. After all, he was exhausted after a whole day's walk and he had to set off again tomorrow.

Colin was lying casually on the sand and soon he could hear the sound of snoring, as if he had no fear at all that Edith might hurt him.

Although Edith was also very tired, she had no intention of going to bed for the time being. As they were alone with each other, she was a little worried that Colin would get angry and have sex with her in the middle of the night.

However, if she were asked to hurt Colin now, she was not a bloodthirsty person and had no intention of doing so.

Colin wasn't actually asleep, but he had no choice but to pretend to be asleep.

Edith didn't have too many thoughts on her mind, she was just worried about Colin's lust. However, after a day, she really couldn't hold it anymore, and her eyelids gradually began to droop.

Thinking of guarding against Colin's hint, Edith hugged her arms and fell asleep facing Colin's side.

Colin could hear Edith's gentle breathing, and then she quietly opened her eyes after a long silence.

Edith was indeed very beautiful in the firelight, with a beauty that was not inferior to Helen. After looking at her for a while, he found that she was indeed asleep, and then he fell asleep peacefully.

……

The fire finally went out, and I felt a slight chill in my sleep, and Edith hugged me tighter.

Colin just smacked his lips and turned over, showing no sign of waking up.

"Swish"

Not far away from the two of them, there were several sand scorpions that seemed to sense something and kept crawling towards Colin and the others, stopping and starting.

The two people who were sleeping soundly were unaware of the approaching danger.

Gradually, the sand scorpions' tentacles captured more information. Well, there were two large creatures ahead.

After determining its position, the sand scorpion's crawling speed increased significantly.

If Colin and the others opened their eyes, they might have discovered these sand scorpions, but they didn't.

The sand scorpions had already crawled near the two of them, but because of their positions, Edith was the closest.

Edith was not fully prepared before entering the secret realm. Although the material of the clothes she was wearing was good, they were much thinner.

The sand scorpion is not very big, about half the size of Edith's foot.

At this time, these sand scorpions had come to Edith's back and were communicating with each other, as if they were considering where to "bite" from.

Soon, several sand scorpions made a decision. One was responsible for guarding and observing the large creature on the other side.

The other two bit Edith's ankles, and one bit her from the fleshiest part of her back.

In her sleep, Edith felt a pain in her buttocks. She frowned slightly but did not wake up.

Almost at the same time, she felt pain in her ankle. This time the pain was more intense, and Edith gradually showed signs of waking up.

The two sand scorpions behind Edith continued to inject venom in an attempt to completely paralyze the large creature.

"what"

Edith was still awakened by the pain.

Soon, Edith wanted to sit up, so she propped up her upper body and lay in a semi-lying position.

"Hmm, can't sit up? It feels like your lower body isn't responding to your commands?"

Edith felt something small attacking her from behind, which might be the reason for the pain.

"Colin."

When Edith screamed in pain, Colin had already woken up, but his consciousness was still a little unclear. When he heard Edith calling his name, he woke up completely.

Soon, Colin jumped up and picked up the two-handed sword.

Releases a light spell on one person.

"Oh my goodness, there are three sand scorpions behind Edith."

Seeing the appearance of the light, the alert sand scorpion realized that the large creature opposite had also woken up, and it crawled towards Colin waving a pair of pincers, while making a "hissing" sound, as if telling its companions to stop playing and deal with this first.

Its companion received its message, pulled out the tail sting that was inserted into Edith's body, and crawled around Edith, also holding up the pair of pincers, towards Colin.

Edith felt her lower body completely paralyzed and she couldn't sit up at all, so she simply lay down again and began to cast freezing spells on herself.

Even if it can't help Colin, at least it can slow down the flow of venom in his body.

Colin cast another light spell and saw three sand scorpions crawling towards him.

With its strong explosive power, it quickly rushed towards the first sand scorpion.

Colin swung his sword at the sand scorpion, but unexpectedly he was blocked by the sand scorpion's pincers.

Some sparks also flew out from the collision site.

"hiss"

So hard?

Time was of the essence, Colin didn't have time to think too much, he raised his sword again and slashed at the sand scorpion. The sand scorpion resisted Colin's attack, and soon its two companions also rushed over.

Fortunately, Colin cut off the sand scorpion's tail.

The sand scorpion made a "hissing" sound, perhaps it was feeling pain.

Fortunately, its companions also rushed over and it was no longer fighting alone.

Colin dodged the sand scorpion's attack.

Soon, Colin led the battlefield away from here, and after leaving Edith about ten meters away, Colin launched an attack again.

Relying on the strength of a mid-level knight squire, Colin smashed the sand scorpion with a broken tail to death with his greatsword.

Colin felt that smashing was more effective than chopping.

After Colin changed his strategy, the battle became much easier. After dodging the sting of a sand scorpion, he smashed another one to death.

Looking at the last sand scorpion, Colin knew that the crisis was halfway over, but he still didn't know what happened to Edith.

In a few seconds, the sand scorpion also became a dead soul under the sword.

Colin didn't bother to sort out the spoils, but ran towards Edith.

In just two breaths, he rushed to Edith.

"How are you? Where are you hurt?"
