The Lone Wolf of Tomorrow's Ark

16 years old, this is Phoenix's current age. It has been six years since he left Columbia, and five years have passed since he learned swordsmanship from Shining. During these five years, Shining taught Phoenix what he has learned all his life. His skill panel Also became like this:

[Swordsmanship lv.8, Origin Stone Art - Ice Control lv.5, Speed ​​lv.1, Virtual Image lv.MAX, Sixth Sense lv.MAX]

[Balance: Synthetic Jade × 1255, Pure Origin Stone × 2]

During this period of time, Phoenix exchanged all the pure source ore harvested from the Spider King into synthetic jade for the upgrade of swordsmanship and virtual images. There are a lot of origin stones, but they are worth the money. Now Phoenix can wield sword aura with an attack distance of five meters. Shining is also amazed at this point. Although she can also wield sword aura, it must be done after the increase. Yes, Phoenix was able to sway the sword out of thin air, which made her very gratified, but what followed was Shining's request to be a teacher.

I remember at that time, Phoenix’s mind went blank for at least ten seconds, followed by heart-wrenching sadness. On that day, no one laughed, but only Nightingale was crying. Phoenix knew that this time would come sooner or later, but It was much faster than he expected.

After thanking the Shining on his knees and making a promise with Nightingale that they would meet again, Phoenix found Hemer, who had left Rhine's life early, and retrieved the "Winter Messenger" from her, and returned to Columbia to give six My sister, who I haven't seen for many years, gave me a coming-of-age gift.

Phoenix's strength is enough for him to travel in Terra, not to mention that he didn't have time to harvest the Spider King's pure source stone mine during his travels, so he handed over the Spider King's coordinates when he retrieved the 'Winter Messenger'. Gave it to Homer.

And now, Phoenix spent two months coming to Kjerag from Colombia. He has never given up on finding a cure for ore disease. Rhode Island is still developing, and the drug research is not yet mature. Therefore, Phoenix put The focus is on Kjerag. It is said in the setting that there are almost no ore diseases here, and there are not even a few source stones.

Phoenix wants to investigate why this is because of Kjerag's environment, or because of some other special reason, no matter what the reason is, it plays a vital role in Phoenix.

"Crack, crack..."

Walking on the thick snow, Phoenix shook the snowflakes falling on his body a little. With the skill of ice-attribute origin stones, he was not afraid of Kjerag's low temperature, but too much snow falling on his body would increase the burden.

Taking out a map of the snow-capped mountains bought from a nearby town from his pocket, Phoenix murmured, "It should be very close, no accident, Kjerag should be in a basin with few entrances and exits." Otherwise, it will not be so easy to implement the policy of closing the country and not casually trading with the outside world.”

However, Phoenix looked at the surrounding environment, only the direction he came from could vaguely see the shadow of the mountain in the snowstorm, and there was nothing in the three directions in front of him.

"Tsk, this time period is really not suitable for finding a place, let's find a cave to rest."

Phoenix turned around and walked towards the nearest snow-capped mountain. After about 5 minutes of touching, he successfully reached the mountain buried by heavy snow, climbed up another ten meters, found a platform wide enough, drew out his lightsaber, and placed Phoenix on the mountain. starting gesture

"Break the sky and dance wildly."

Phoenix formed a sword curtain with only one-handed lightsaber, first snow, then earth and rocks, and finally mountain rocks. In just 20 seconds, Phoenix made a cave about five meters deep.

Walking into the cave, shaking off the snow on his body, he sat down directly along the cave wall, and took out his notepad again. The appearance is black as a whole, without any decoration or font. What Phoenix can still remember is the background of Tomorrow's Ark and some character settings.

This was written by Phoenix when he was 13 years old. Time will smooth the pain, but it will also make people forget.

After living in Terra for 13 years, Phoenix has more or less forgotten some useless plots in Tomorrow's Ark. In order to prevent himself from forgetting all his memories one day, Phoenix found a notebook and wrote it down, but It only used less than a tenth of the entire notepad, so that it would not look too sloppy, Phoenix wrote down other games and animations that he could still remember.

Flipping through a few photos, just as he saw the mobile game that had just been tested and hadn't played many levels, Phoenix glanced at it from the corner of his eye and suddenly found a small black spot moving on the opposite mountain.

"During the snowstorm, is there anyone outside?"

Closing the notepad, Phoenix came to the entrance of the cave, and suddenly found that there seemed to be more than one person on the opposite side. There were several black spots above and below the black spot that was constantly moving on the mountain. Although they did not move, Phoenix's intuition told him , these black dots are also people.

Phoenix didn't care, and was about to go back to rest when he suddenly felt something was wrong.

"Huh? This scene..."

He quickly opened the notepad and flipped through it. When he reached the sixth page, Phoenix’s pupils shrank, and he quickly turned around and ran towards the black spot. On the page of the notepad, it was written:

"On the eve of the Snow Mountain Incident, Yinhui's younger sister, Yaxin, accidentally fell while climbing a mountain, and was pierced through her thigh by a piece of origin stone, contracting ore disease..."

Phoenix was running on the snowy field with super speed, and the snow behind him was constantly kicked up due to trampling. The person who was climbing was Yaxin. However, just when he could vaguely see the girl on the mountain, he saw that part of the snow on the top slid down the mountain as if under some force.

Although the falling snow wasn't enough to bury a person, its impact under the action of gravity was enough to push a person down. Phoenix only heard a short "ah!", and saw the girl being crushed by a large amount of snow. rushed down.

Fortunately, the height the girl climbed was not too high, and the foot of the mountain was covered with snow, so there was no need to worry about her safety.

Seeing the girl fall off the cliff, Phoenix couldn't help speeding up his pace again. Now he somewhat regrets why he didn't upgrade to super speed.

Five seconds later, Phoenix finally arrived at the foot of the mountain, and found several people in white robes surrounding the girl who had fallen off the cliff, as if they were confirming something.

At this time, one of the men in white robes saw the movement made by Phoenix, quickly said a few words in a low voice, turned around and ran away, and the rest of them also ran in different directions, presumably to prevent being caught by the net. Seeing this , Phoenix directly focused on the man in white robe closest to him.

Seeing that the distance was almost the same, Phoenix kicked over with a flying kick. The man in white robe saw Phoenix's movement, and saw that he was not flustered. He quickly changed his running direction to match Phoenix's, facing Phoenix at the same time, and then pushed his legs hard. , jumping back quickly.

Seeing the action of the man in white robe, Phoenix's pupils narrowed slightly, thinking: 'He is a master with rich combat experience. '

After being taught by The Shining for five years, Phoenix's actual combat experience is naturally not much lower, and he naturally knows the reason for the series of actions of the white-robed man:

The reason for changing direction and jumping backward facing Phoenix at the same time is to add the force of running to the force of jumping, so that this force reaches a new height, and because this force is in the same direction as Phoenix kicks, Therefore, the kicking force of Phoenix will be offset by a lot, leaving only the remaining force that will not cause damage. At the same time, you can use this remaining force to provide yourself with a considerable distance displacement, which is a common technique when being chased and escaped. .

But generally few people can easily control, so Phoenix will think he is a master.

The subsequent development was just as Phoenix thought, the white-robed man borrowed his power to fly directly into the blizzard and quickly disappeared.

"Tch, you run really fast, huh? This is..."

Phoenix looked down and reached out to pick up a badge on the ground. It should be a family crest with complicated patterns and words engraved on it.

"Oh, bastard, do you really think I can't read?!"

This should be on the man in white robe, or he left it on purpose, it should be to confuse the public and divert Phoenix's focus, but the premise is that Phoenix is ​​a native of Kjerag.

Because the font on this badge is impressively used by Colombia!Phoenix can see it at a glance!

"Hmph, the family just likes to engage in these conspiracies."

Phoenix threw it vigorously, and the badge flew into the blizzard. However, just as Phoenix was about to rescue the girl, he suddenly heard a slight "pop."

It's a bit like the sound of something hitting someone.

"Um... an illusion."

Phoenix came to the girl, cleared the snow, and saw the girl's whole appearance. She had short white hair, a white hat, and a jacket, but inside was a slightly cool corset, and she was wrapped around her waist. The chain connected to the climbing pick is the heart of the cliff.

It's just that Yaxin has passed out at this time, and a black origin stone can be seen stuck on his thigh.

"Oh, it's still a step late."

Phoenix picked up Yaxin and started to rush to the cave.

At the same time, a black masked figure with a huge three-edged shuriken on his back was standing on a rock not far from the place where the heart of the cliff fell, watching all this silently, and murmured: "Thank you!" Is Lager's situation going to be changed? It's best to report to Mr. Wei after a thorough investigation... Hiss—it really hurts, damn it, just wait for me!"

The figure couldn't help but touched his slightly red and swollen forehead, and cursed.

At this time, a cold wind with snowflakes blew past, and that figure disappeared in an instant, not even the snow on the rock where she was standing just now, as if it had never appeared before.

ps: I changed my mind temporarily, and the number of heroines is officially set to six, with the following initials: D, J, Y, B, C, L.Guess everyone.

Chapter 30 This is the real optimist

"Huh~ha~ Hehe, climbing mountains and rocks in a blizzard, I guess I'm the first one, ahaha."

Throwing the climbing pick into a rock crevice and got stuck, the cliff center grabbed the chain, kicked off the rock wall, and swung along the chain. There was a small step about one decimeter wide. Snow accumulated, Yaxin took back the climbing pick, grasped the handle with his left hand, chopped it into the ice on the mountain, and took a rest.

"Phew~ Sure enough, rock climbing can make my heart feel better. Sigh, since he came back from beating my brother, he's like a different person. He's even scarier than those bad old men. Want to let the family rise or something, ah, it’s so annoying! No matter! Hurry up to the top of the mountain and roar twice.”

Yaxin moved her numb legs, and when she was about to climb up again, a pair of small ears on her head moved, and she heard the sound of someone walking above, and when she looked up, she saw that it was about seven miles above her current position. On a platform in Mi, there was a man in white robe standing beside her and looking at her.

Yaxin felt a twitch in his heart, and was about to ask who he was, but his pupils shrank suddenly, and saw that person took out a round object and put it at his feet, turned around and ran away, Yaxin recognized the round object, then It is a kind of bomb unique to Kjerag. It has no lethality, and its only function is to produce impact and vibration. The purpose of making it is to impact the snow on the roof to make it slide off by itself, so as to prevent the roof from collapsing. Therefore, It is also called snow thunder, and sometimes Kjerag's patrol team will also use snow thunder to create small avalanches on nearby mountains to prevent large avalanches from rushing towards Kjerag due to excessive snow accumulation on the mountains.

Yaxin never expected that Xuelei, who used to ensure the safety of Kjerag's environment, would become her life-threatening weapon. Yaxin quickly swung the climbing pick on the other end of the chain, trying to change positions, but naturally it was too late, so she only heard "Boom!", all the snow above was shaken down, Yaxin's climbing pick was buried by the snow before it could be thrown out.

As a last resort, Yaxin had no choice but to hold on to the climbing pick that was still stuck in the rock in his left hand and make a final struggle. However, the power of nature is not so easy to resist. Even if it is just a small man-made avalanche, its impact is terrible. , Ya Xin only held on for three seconds before sliding down.

"what!"

……

"It should be here soon, really, what are you doing rock climbing in a snowy day?"

Soon to arrive at the cave, Phoenix breathed a sigh of relief just now, and suddenly found that the wound on Yaxin's leg was frozen, and couldn't help complaining, although the freezing of the wound can prevent Yaxin from losing too much blood, but the subsequent treatment is difficult. It is quite troublesome.

After five seconds, finally returned to the cave, Phoenix took out a blanket from his pocket and spread it on the ground, let Yaxin lie down, and began to check the wound on her leg, hey, look, this leg is white and... Bah !Crooked!

The exposed part of the source stone is very sharp. If you look carefully, you can vaguely see traces of artificial polishing. It is obvious that this source stone will appear in Kjerag, where source stones are rare, and it will plunge into it with incomparable accuracy. The incident of "accidentally" falling into the cliff's heart leg was deliberately planned by someone, and Phoenix knew with his knees that it was definitely planned by the other two families, in order to make Yinhui feel scruples.

However, if it was Yinhui from before, he might have scruples for the safety of his relatives, but Yinhui, who has been polished by society, has unparalleled ambition and resourcefulness. He has dozens of ways to protect his two younger sisters, but he does not. Execution, because his purpose is to rise the entire Kjerag and the Shivaash family. For this purpose, even slight injuries to relatives are acceptable.

"Forget it, why am I thinking so much? I won't get involved in this kind of political affairs."

After talking to himself, Phoenix put his tail on Yaxin's wound, and he was very glad that his big tail kept warm. After a while, the ice on Yaxin's wound melted, but the blood did not Freezing, still flowing.

After confirming that there was no more ice, Phoenix removed his tail, took out a piece of rope from his pocket, and tied it tightly above the wound. Seeing that the blood flow slowed down, he quickly pulled out the origin stone carefully, and then found out a piece of rope to stop the bleeding. The powder was sprinkled on, and finally wrapped with a bandage, perfect.

During the period of guidance from The Shining, Phoenix developed the habit of carrying medical equipment with him to deal with various emergencies.

Wiping the blood on Yaxin's leg and his own hands, he untied the tourniquet, put the removed Origin Stone into his bag, then sat aside and continued to read the memo he had written.

Five minutes later, when Phoenix felt that Yaxin should wake up, he saw her body trembling slightly, muttering in her mouth: "It's cold, it's so cold..." Then he curled up and hugged his long leopard tail, trying to Looking for a little warmth.

"Hmm...do you want to go outside and chop some wood?"

Although the cold weather in Kjerag is not conducive to plant growth, there are still quite a few plants that are resistant to frost like pine.The blizzard hadn't stopped, but it didn't matter to Phoenix. When he was about to go out to cut firewood, Yaxin subconsciously reached out and grabbed Phoenix's tail.

"Uh...why do you all have a soft spot for my tail?"

For five years, Nightingale hugged Phoenix's tail almost every night. It wasn't a big deal at first, but after a long time, Phoenix found that Nightingale was still hugging Phoenix's tail at night, and the next morning it was hugging Phoenix himself. Feeling Nightingale's more and more bumpy body sticking to her every morning, it was a torment comparable to ten tortures!

Therefore, Phoenix has rejected Nightingale's request to "sleep together" several times, but every time, he will be turned into a "really fragrant warning" by Nightingale's "I will cry for you if I don't agree" every time. .

In order not to turn his tail into a pillow again, Phoenix exerted a light force, and the tail immediately slipped out of Yaxin's hand, but how could Yaxin, who had finally found a source of warmth, let it go?Directly and lightly together, with a pounce, he lay down again holding Phoenix's tail tightly, and Phoenix was also pulled back by the sudden burst of force from Yaxin.

"Hey hey~ fluffy~ warm~"

Looking at Yaxin's dreamy dream of happiness, Phoenix sighed softly, let's make an exception again.

……

"Mmm~ um~ha~ Is it dawn?"

Yaxin yawned, saw the sunlight coming in from outside, and said lazily:

"Ah, it's a fine weather again. It's really suitable for sleeping in the cage and rock climbing."

After finishing speaking, Ya Xin lay down again and was about to go back to sleep. Suddenly, a picture flashed in his mind, and he suddenly recalled the previous events:

'Wait a moment!Am I not rock climbing in a blizzard?Then... I... fell off a cliff? !So... where am I now? '

Yaxin, who realized something was wrong, opened his eyes, saw the tail in his arms, and said, "Ah? What is this? It feels good to the touch. Being a pillow must be the kind of expensive..."

Yaxin raised his head while talking, and finally saw the owner of the tail, only to see Phoenix staring at Yaxin with a pair of cold and emotionless eyes, and said silently: "In front of others, it is deadly expensive to say that people's tails are used as pillows." Is it really good?"

"Ah? You... I... this... yay!!"

Yaxin quickly let go of Phoenix's tail, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment, and she directly faced Phoenix in the posture of Dogeza, shouting: "I'm sorry! Sister! I didn't mean to hug your tail!"

Quiet, unparalleled stillness.

The air was silent for ten seconds, Yaxin was a little flustered, and secretly raised his head to look, his face was pale with fright, because at this time Phoenix's eyes were glowing red, like a hunter who saw his prey, Yaxin was frightened Like a kitten, it hugged its tail tightly and kept shivering.

Seeing that Yaxin was so scared by himself, Phoenix returned to his previous expression and said, "Those who don't know are innocent, forgive you once, remember, I'm a man."

"Oh?! It's a man..." Yaxin, who was surprised, saw Phoenix's face showing signs of anger again, and changed his words instantly: "Yes! I remember it!"
